1061 Explanation

Even though the Zhong family was in charge of all the transportation matters for the troops, they would not dare to clash with the Xia family head-on. The Xia family’s circle of influence was not only limited to that of the Xia family members, but also included everyone who was on good terms with the Xia family.

People would definitely be more willing to do the Xia family a favor than the Zhong family.

“Leave the things with me first. I’ll make a call later and get it checked out. I’ll give the things back to you after I’ve done the checks,” Zhong Ye said.

Xiao Luo placed the two bottles of medicinal wine on Zhong Ye’s desk and left the office in silence. Zhong Ye secretly hid the two bottles of medicinal wine and left the rest of the items in the package intact to be forwarded to Xia Zhe. In this manner, he not only would not offend Xia Mao, but also ensured that such good stuff did not fall into Xia Zhe’s hands.

“The Zhong family has two bottles of ‘divine medicine’ in their hands now. Do you want us to deal with it quietly?” Huo Gao asked.

He Ning shook his head. What Zhong Ye did was a really stupid thing. It was very obvious when individual items went missing. Since the He family could find out about this matter, the Xia family must definitely already know about it.

“Let’s just sit on the sidelines and watch the fun,” He Ning said meaningfully.

The Xia family had received news of this matter at the same time. Xia Mao was still seriously ill and was unable to discuss this matter with the family. It was up to Xia Wen to make the decision.

“Xiao Wen, what do you think?” Xia Jun asked as he looked at the letter in his hand.

“Grandfather, we still don’t have any clear evidence to prove that Xia Zhe’s medicinal wine was taken by a Zhong family member. No one will believe that a department head will commit theft. Zhong Ye has never done anything wrong all these years, so he must have a way with things. We can’t act rashly,” Xia Wen said with a frown.

Zhong Ye was a person with a good reputation. He was magnanimous and very generous to his friends. He was also loyal and always kept his word, so most people liked Zhong Ye very much. However, only those who really knew Zhong Ye knew that he liked to play cheap tricks behind everyone’s back. He was always cooking up some kind of scheme, making it impossible to guard against him. This was also the reason why the Xia family did not want to be friends with the Zhong family.

“Then tell me what we should do now,” Xia Jun said as he looked at Xia Wen with interest. Given Xia Mao’s absence, this could be considered a test for Xia Wen. He wanted to see if Xia Wen could shoulder the responsibility of being the head of the Xia family.

Xia Wen thought for a moment and said, “This person is sinister and cunning. We can’t confront him directly. Let’s get someone to search his house first and only make a move after we find concrete evidence. This way, we can defeat the enemy in one go. Let’s pretend that we don’t know anything for now and only make a move when we find what we need.”

Xia Jun nodded in satisfaction. He had thought that the Xia family had already reached its peak under the care of Xia Mao’s generation. He did not expect that there were already successors waiting in the wings. There was Xia Wen to take care of the family matters and Xia Zhe who worked hard outside the family. The Xia family was also lucky enough to have added a resourceful daughter-in-law like Qiao Mei into the fold.

It appeared that the Xia family could go even further in the future.

For the past few days, Qiao Mei had felt uneasy. She had been telling people about those 100-year-old, 1000-year-old or even 10,000-year-old ginsengs and Qiao Qiang had probably gotten wind of this by now.

Qiao Qiang was the one who had personally gone up the mountain to dig up the 100-year-old ginseng, so there was no need for Qiao Mei to explain it. However, Qiao Mei really did not know how to explain the existence of the 1,000-year-old and 10,000-year-old ginsengs to Qiao Qiang.

She was worried that people with ulterior motives would come and question Qiao Qiang about this in the future. If Qiao Qiang’s story did not tally with hers, it could only bring disaster to both the Xia family and their family.

Qiao Mei walked over to Qiao Qiang, pulling along a wooden box with rollers. She hesitated for a while and did not know where to start. Qiao Qiang smiled and said, “Are you here to show me your new wooden box?”

Qiao Mei had made this wooden box based on her memories from her other life. It was modeled after a luggage bag. It was easier for her to move it around compared with a box that needed to be hauled around.

Qiao Qiang had heard too many versions of the same story recently and was aware of a lot of things, but he did not believe anything. He would only believe whatever Qiao Mei said.

“I’ve been at home and don’t know anything about the outside world. Tell me about it,” Qiao Qiang said with a smile.

Qiao Mei held her breath and opened the box. It was filled with ginsengs and not just one type. There were ginsengs of various ages.

These were all ginsengs that she had cultivated later. The original 10,000-year-old ginseng from before had already been given to Xia Mao for his treatment. The one in the box now was another one that she had planted subsequently.
