Chapter 50: Something’s Wrong

Qiao Yu stood on the spot and looked at Qiao Zhuang in disbelief.

The family had always treated her as an invisible person, so she had never been on the receiving end of such treatment. This was because the men in the family never even bothered to look at her, let alone praise her like this.

At this moment, she felt a sense of great joy.

She opened her mouth excitedly. “Yes, yes!”

There was a sense of uncontrollable excitement in her chest.

Qiao Zhuang was even happier. He looked at the things in the courtyard and laughed loudly.

...

On the way home with her grandfather, Qiao Mei bumped into the villagers who had finished work for the day.

When the villagers saw the pair of grandfather and granddaughter carrying many shopping bags, they were not surprised but greeted them normally instead.

Qiao Mei and her grandfather had always been like this. On the day that Qiao Qiang received his salary, they would go shopping and then come back with many shopping bags.

Ordinary families may not even be able to go shopping once a year, but Qiao Mei’s family would go shopping every month. Every time, they looked as though they were doing major shopping for the new year and would attract a lot of attention.

However, this time round, everyone’s expression was a little strange.

There were people snickering at the pair of them, people who looked like they were gleefully waiting to watch some drama and people who shook their heads and sighed.

Everyone had a different expression, but there was something strange about the expressions on many people’s faces.

Everyone looked like they wanted to say something but did not dare to speak for some reason.

Seeing them like this, Qiao Mei suddenly thought of Qiao Zhuang’s family.

Qiao Mei continued, “Could it be... related to Qiao Zhuang’s family? Did they do something again?”

As soon as she mentioned Qiao Zhuang’s family, Qiao Mei felt that the people in the crowd immediately shut their mouths and kept quiet.

The mood became even more serious.

At this point, Qiao Mei finally understood one thing. This matter must be related to Qiao Zhuang’s family and nobody dared to say it out loud because of the thuggish behavior of Qiao Zhuang’s family.

Everyone looked shocked to find that Qiao Mei had made a correct guess.

Qiao Mei did not know anything at first, but based on her own guesses, she gradually found the real culprit.

Impressive!

When did Qiao Mei become so clever?

All the various expressions on people’s faces were very interesting. The way they looked at Qiao Mei also changed a little, but the whole place was still silent.

“I understand now. I’ll go to Qiao Zhuang’s house to take a look later.” Qiao Mei waved her hand and made a move to go home with the basket on her back.

In her other life, she was a senior lawyer who specialized in cases dealing with vicious people. Those people thought that they were very powerful, so they bullied other people and did all kinds of evil things.

People like that dared to do anything.
