Xia He was very efficient and bought that empty plot of land within a day. With their fake identities, it was much more convenient for them to do anything they wanted.
When she reached home and opened the door, she saw Auntie Wang and Auntie Zhang gathering everyone together to make dumplings. It was customary to eat dumplings during a reunion. Apart from making dumplings during the new year and festive seasons, people also made dumplings when family members came home from overseas. When she saw Xia Zhe, she was too surprised to react. She stood stunned at the door for a long time before she walked in slowly.
“Why are you still standing there? Put down your things and come have your meal!” Qiao Mei shouted.
“When... when did you arrive?” Xia He asked as she looked at Xia Zhe confusedly.
“This afternoon. I didn’t tell any of you in advance because it was a last-minute decision. I’m going back tomorrow,” Xia Zhe said.

If so, it would be very difficult for Qiao Mei to get the jewelry back from Dr. Julie. If she insisted on taking it back, there may be many lives lost in the process.
However, Qiao Mei really wanted to gather all of Gao Tao’s jewelry from back then. For a moment, she was at a loss, but then she decided to leave the issue aside for now. She would think about this again when the time was right. Now was not the right time.
That night, Xia Zhe slept in the room with the children and he left the small town early the next morning. He promised Qiao Mei that he would come again when he had some free time.
The weather in the town had been quite good so Qiao Mei rolled up her sleeves and started to work on the new plot of land which Xia He bought. There was no need for anyone to plow the land manually here. Everything was done using machines..
