Chapter 2196: Weeping

Editor: Atlas Studios

Xia Bai and w.a.n.g Kun gasped. Qiao Mei wanted 200,000 dollars for a ginseng! That was daylight robbery! No wonder she was so rich. She was a scammer!

Actually, the two of them were right. Qiao Mei had started out by scamming money from bad people.

“How much! 150,000 dollars! The 50-year-old ginseng that my family bought is only 100,000 dollars. You actually want 150,000 dollars for a mere 30-year-old ginseng!” Bian Ke said in shock.

“The ginseng from our village is much more effective than ginseng from other places. If you don’t believe me, you can ask around and see if I’m telling the truth,” Qiao Mei said.

Before Qiao Mei left the village, she had left some ginseng sprouts in that mountain. By now, they had probably all been dug out by the villagers. Many influential families in the capital had found out about everything about the Xia family and they had all gone to Foshan Village to buy ginseng at a high price. News of this had long spread throughout the capital.

Bian Ke glared at Qiao Mei angrily, but Qiao Mei did not say anything else. She only raised her eyes and looked at Meng Yuan.

Meng Yuan understood what Qiao Mei meant. He looked at Bian Ke and said, “Third Sister-in-law’s ginseng is indeed good stuff. If you don’t have enough money, you can buy something else for your grandfather. I remember that Third Sister-in-law also has some lingzhi.”

“How can that do! How can those lousy things compare with ginseng!” Bian Ke said.

In her eyes, even a 100-year-old lingzhi was only something useless. If other people knew about this, they would definitely scold her for not knowing her stuff!

“So long as the item can help in prolonging life, you should not be so picky. The most important thing is that it can help a person to live longer,” Xia He said.

Xia You hurriedly stood beside Xia He and chimed in, “There are many people who want this ginseng! You have to think it through carefully! If you can’t make the decision, go home and discuss it with your family and see if you can pool the money to buy it. After all, you say it yourself that your grandfather’s life is more important.”

Every sentence seemed to be filled with concern for Bian Ke, but in reality, they were telling her not to be too greedy! Each sentence was laced with mockery!

Bian Ke gritted her teeth and looked at Qiao Mei. “We’re going to be a family soon! Give me a discount! Say 10,000 dollars!”

“That’s true! She’ll marry into our family sooner or later!” Xia Bai said as she looked at everyone.

An Xin immediately gave Xia Bai a kick and said, “You don’t even know what’s going on. What nonsense are you saying! You have no right to speak here! Shut your mouth!”

“It’s still hard to say if we’ll become one family! Mother! Don’t you think so!” Xia He retorted.

Xu Lan did not look at Meng Yuan’s expression and simply said, “That’s right. The elders from the two families have not met yet and the two of you are not even engaged. It’s too soon to talk about this.”

Bian Ke was so angry that her face had turned green. She felt that the Xia family was too arrogant and were looking down on her. Also, Meng Yuan did not even speak up for her.

“Oh! I suddenly remembered that I have already sold this ginseng for 250,000 dollars! I’m really sorry, it’s just too popular,” Qiao Mei said.

Behind Qiao Mei, Xia He and Xia You almost could not hold their laughter in. In terms of the ability to infuriate someone, Qiao Mei was still the best. A simple sentence from her was enough to make Bian Ke embarra.s.sed to the core!

“You’re doing this on purpose!” Bian Ke pointed at Qiao Mei and accused her.

“I just have a bad memory,” Qiao Mei said with a shrug.

Seeing that there was no way out, Bian Ke immediately squatted down and started wailing. As she wept, she cried out, “Grandfather~ Poor Grandfather~”

Bian Ke’s voice kept echoing in the house. Qiao Mei suddenly started to regret having such a big s.p.a.ce in the house since it tends to make sounds louder. Xia He was so angry that she wanted to slap Bian Ke. The reunion festival had only just ended, but Bian Ke was now weeping at their house! How unlucky!

“What does your poor grandfather have to do with our family… You’re the one who’s useless…” Xia You muttered softly in disdain.

“Enough, stop crying! If you have so much free time, you should go home and ask your family! Surely all of you can pool the money together!” Xia He said impatiently.

Bian Ke gradually stopped crying. She ignored the fact that there were elders present and just ran out in a rush. Qiao Mei looked at Meng Yuan and said, “Get Da Zhuang to drive her back. You stay behind.”

Meng Yuan did as Qiao Mei said. The villa was quite high up in the mountains and near the forests. If Bian Ke walked to the bus stop on her own, she probably would not be able to make it home even by the time night fell.

Meng Yuan sat across from everyone, feeling uneasy. He already knew that they could not brush aside the incident today and that it was impossible for him and Bian Ke to continue with the relations.h.i.+p anymore.

“Meng Yuan, do you like her?” Xu Lan asked.

“So-so,” Meng Yuan replied honestly. He only thought that Bian Ke was a beautiful girl but he really did not know her that well.
