The man took his eyes off Xia He. How could this woman in front of him remain so calm even when the knife was already on her neck? Could she be an unlicensed doctor? However, he had met all the unlicensed doctors in America and knew their backgrounds. He had no impression of this woman in front of him.

“I’ll just stand here and won’t get close to you. Put down the knife in your hand. We’re really here to save you. Don’t misunderstand,” Xia He said earnestly.

After asking a few more questions, the man confirmed that what Xia He said was true. Even if it was not true, he did not have the strength to kill Qiao Mei right now. Qiao Mei could easily kill him with a gentle push.

Before leaving the shop, Qiao Mei had asked Alice for a lot of bandages. She tore open the man’s clothes and sprinkled the 100-year-old ginseng juice on the wounds. The man thought that it would have the same effect as alcohol and was already prepared for intense pain. However, he only felt a faint heat coming from the wounds, as if they were slowly healing.

“What kind of medicine is this?” the man asked.

“It’s something that we have in my family. I’ve already bandaged your wounds.

Sit here for a while to rest and then go back on your own. I have to go now.” After saying that, Qiao Mei packed her things and quickly left the small alley with Xia He.

“I’m fine! I just encountered a fight on the street just now. Don’t worry,” Qiao Mei said.

Auntie Wang led Qiao Mei back to her room to take a shower and to change out of her clothes. Xia He told the two men everything that had happened today. Luo Yu and Luo Hui broke out in cold sweat when they heard the story. If anything really happened to Qiao Mei and Xia He today, the Xia family would definitely skin the two of them alive.

Qiao Mei sat on a chair by the window and recalled what had happened today. Since they had no way to open a shop or set up a stall to sell goods, they could only think of another way out.

She stared at the small garden outside for a long time. Butler Xu heard from Xia Wen that she liked to grow vegetables, so he specially bought a lot of seeds and kept them in the storeroom. Now that there was no way to earn money, she decided to save money on food.

The vegetables she planted herself were actually more healthy and she could also distribute some to the neighbors. If one had more friends, then one would have more options in life. Perhaps these neighbors could bring her other opportunities.

Qiao Mei headed downstairs and intended to start planting vegetables. Luo Yu immediately asked, “Where are you going? I’ll go with you.”

“I’m just going to the garden to plant vegetables. Don’t worry, I won’t go out. You guys can go about your business,” Qiao Mei said.

Qiao Mei took the necessary tools and went to the small garden. Luo Yu stood by the window and looked out quietly. He knew that Qiao Mei did not like overly close protection. In that case, he could only observe in secret.

First, Qiao Mei flipped the soil. The land had been left untouched for a long time and needed to be cleaned up properly. The rotten wood and weeds around also needed to be removed..
