Chapter 1712 His Mother Ran Away With Another Man

Liu Yun sighed deeply and said, "You, you're just too kind-hearted! What if you get bullied with such a character? When you see Miao Le next time, just chase her out with a big stick! Don't be too soft-hearted just because you see the child with her! Also, you have to tell the neighbors about such things and let everyone know what her family is like. Otherwise, there will definitely be trouble in the future!"

Qiao Mei pursed her lips and smiled faintly. When she was in the capital, the Xia family members were all so worried that she would go around bullying others. She did not expect that there would be people in the military family compound who were concerned that she might get bullied by others!

"I think it's unlikely... Hasn't Miao Le already learned her lesson?" Qiao Mei said.

"Tian Jun took so much money from her and gave it to you. She will definitely hate you for it! Who knows what kind of nasty things she can say about you. If you're soft-hearted towards them now, you'll definitely suffer in the future!" Liu Yun said agitatedly.

It was not that Qiao Mei was soft-hearted, but she just did not want to be too ruthless and go all out. They would still see one another often in the future and it was not good to make things too awkward. Besides, those people had already been forced into a corner. No one knew what they could do if they ran out of options.

"Alright, I'll remember your advice. Thank you for your concern, Sister-in-law. Once my ducks start laying eggs, I'll make preserved eggs for you!" Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Qiao Mei looked at Xia Zhe in puzzlement. It was not that she minded Zhao Wu staying at their house, but she was just curious as to why Zhao Wu would want to stay at their house instead of going home after returning to the capital.

When Zhao Wu was distracted, Xia Zhe took the chance to pull Qiao Mei into the house and told her, "Zhao Wu's mother ran away when he was very young. His father searched everywhere but could not find any news about his mother. Apparently his mother found their family to be too poor and she left with a rich man."

"You mean such things really happen!" Qiao Mei covered her mouth and said in surprise.

Qiao Mei had heard of such cases in her other life, but it was always her colleagues who handled them. She only thought of them as interesting stories and did not expect to encounter such a thing in this life! Moreover, it happened to someone she knew!

In the end, Zhao Wu's father gave up on finding his wife and decided to bring up his son well by himself. After that, he met a mild-mannered woman and the two of them got married and had a cute daughter. Although Zhao Wu's stepmother treated him quite well, Zhao Wu still felt very uncomfortable.

Every time he saw his father, stepmother and younger sister together, he felt that he was the redundant one. Although he continued to keep in touch with his family over the years, he did not stay in the family house again.

"He can stay with us for as long as he wants. You don't have to tell me about such things in the future. I'll go along with what you want," Qiao Mei said as she looked at Xia Zhe.

Xia Zhe could not help himself from hugging Qiao Mei tightly and saying, "I'll go along with what you want too."

Just as the two of them were locked in an embrace, Zhao Wu suddenly walked into the house with a piglet in his arms and asked, "Why is this pig different from the ones we have in the army camp? Did you buy the wrong type? You... ahem... I'm sorry to disturb you. Please continue."
