889 Afraid of Implicating Others

“It’s Old Madam Fan and her two sons. I didn’t suffer any losses. She hit me, so I hit her back! Fortunately, the people from the movie theater came to help me. They took Old Madam Fan to the police station and I’m able to come back,” Li Gui said proudly.

Li Gui even felt that she had done a good job in this matter! She was behaving like a little kid.

Qiao Mei frowned. She had thought that Old Madam Fan and the others would give up after a few days, but she did not expect their family to go so far. If this matter was not dealt with properly, there would probably be no end to it. She had to discuss this matter with Xia Wen and they could not delay it any longer.

Qiao Mei went to the kitchen to prepare some shredded ginger and made a bowl of thick ginger soup for Li Gui. The entire courtyard was filled with the smell and it was thousands of times thicker than ordinary ginger soup.

“Can… can I not drink it?” Li Gui asked as she held the bowl of ginger soup.

Qiao Mei shook her head and even took out a piece of fruit candy from her pocket for Li Gui, as if she was coaxing a child to drink medicine.

Li Gui had no choice but to pinch her nose and drink it in big gulps. After a while, she was covered in sweat.

“Mei Mei, will this matter affect your eldest brother?” Li Gui asked worriedly.

Old Madam Fan would definitely not let the matter rest. Ever since Li Gui followed Qiao Mei around, she began to have some understanding of such things. For something like what happened tonight, Old Madam Fan would be released after being locked up for three days at most. After that woman came out, she would definitely take revenge even more fiercely. No one knew what she would do.

It was just that Old Madam Fan did not manage to find the relevant departments to file a report against Li Gui today. After all, Li Gui was indeed not doing any formal business. If the old woman really reported her for doing private business, Cao Gang and the others would be implicated and Xia Wen would be affected too. What could she do then! She could not implicate the Xia family because of this matter. At most, she would just stop doing business.

“It’s fine. You can rest at home for the next two days. Leave the rest to me,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Actually, if Old Madam Fan really wanted to report Li Gui, the anonymous letter would end up with Xia Wen. This matter would not affect Xia Wen much, but she liked Li Gui’s current att.i.tude towards the Xia family. This meant that Li Gui also treated the Xia family as part of her family.

Before Qiao Mei came to the capital, she was worried that Li Gui would not get along well with the Xia family members and that the two families would end up splitting up. Then, she would be caught in the middle and put in a difficult position. Now, it seemed that her worries were unnecessary.

At night, Qiao Mei slept over at Li Gui’s place. She was worried that Li Gui would run a fever again after being in the cold for so long. After all, Li Gui did not take good care during her confinement periods when she gave birth to the four children in the past. Her bones would ache whenever she touched cold water. This time, she had been drenched and frozen in the snow for so long, so Qiao Mei did not know if her body could withstand it.

Before Qiao Mei went to bed, she even put a drop of 100-year-old ginseng juice into Li Gui’s gla.s.s. Seeing Li Gui drink it bit by bit, she felt at ease enough to go to the side room to sleep.

The next morning, Li Gui’s house was bustling with activity. Even Qiao Mei, who always liked to sleep in, woke up early to help Li Gui prepare food.

It had been snowing in the capital for the past two days, but there was not a single snowflake in Li Gui’s courtyard. There was not even any frozen area. It was the same for Qiao Mei’s huge courtyard.

This was all thanks to the four children. They were worried that Qiao Mei would fall down while walking on the snowy ground. Whenever the snow stopped, they would quickly take a broom to sweep it all up. They even swept up the alley as well.

The neighbors became more and more fond of these children. No family’s children were as sensible as these four children. Some families even wanted to send their children to Li Gui’s house for two days to learn from these children how to be so obedient.

In the past, no one in the village was willing to play with Zhang Wei and the other children. Later on, everyone became familiar with one another because of the seeds. Qiao Mei recently realized that these few children would sometimes go to the house next door to play. There were also three children around the same age living in the house next door.

Nowadays, the families with children who lived in the alley would let their children play with Zhang Wei and the other children. As the saying went, one would be influenced by the company one kept. These people felt that if their children played with Zhang Wei and the rest often, their children would also become obedient.

Xia He yawned as she walked in from outside. In her hands, she held a lot of fresh vegetables and some fish, meat and fresh prawns that were specially provided for the Xia family.
