Liang Guo glanced at Liang Lan and she asked with a smile, “Then when are you going back to the Qiao Family Village? How about we go back with you to visit your grandfather?”

Qiao Mei looked at Liang Lan and smiled as she said, “I already said that it’s a lie. Our house is in Foshan Village.”

The two members of the Liang family could not stand it anymore. Their lie had been rudely exposed and it was no longer possible to keep up with the pretense that they missed their father.

“Is there anything else?” Xia Zhe sneered as he spoke to the two Liang family members.

Given that they could not pretend anymore, they left without even saying any niceties.

Xia Wen saw the two Liang family members walk out in exasperation and went forward to ask, “What’s wrong? Aren’t you going to stay for dinner?”

“No, Professor Xia,” Liang Guo said coldly.

Xia Wen looked at the two people leaving and felt confused. When he entered the house, he saw Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei having a good laugh together.

“What did the two of you do? Look at how angry those people are,” Xia Wen said with a smile.

Xia Wen believed that it was impossible for Xia Zhe to be rude to strangers without a reason. Seeing the way the Liang siblings walked out, they were definitely furious because they had been embarrassed.

“They came to my house and put on a show of deep love that a pair of children had for their father, so I just exposed them a little.” Qiao Mei shrugged innocently.

Xia Zhe said as he massaged Qiao Mei’s head, “You still have the cheek to say that. Why are you so naughty?”

Qiao Mei told Xia Wen everything that transpired just now, giving Xia Wen a rough idea of the whole issue. He did not ask about the details and only knew that it also concerned the Xia family.

Although Xia Wen was a university professor, the truth was that the Xia family had originally wanted Xia Wen to go into politics and Xia Zhe to join the military. This way, the Xia family would have their hands in both military and political affairs. In the beginning, Xia Mao was the one who handled the Xia family’s matters. Later on, Xia Mao brought Xia Wen along as his understudy and slowly started to leave the family matters to Xia Wen.

“This whole thing was their fault in the first place, but you’re quite impressive. Liang Guo is famous in the political circle for being a very tactful and slippery eel. I didn’t expect you to be able to make him so angry today!” Xia Wen thought of Liang Guo’s expression when he left just now and found it very interesting.

Today, they had only temporarily forced the Liang siblings to retreat. Those two would not let the matter rest. Qiao Mei was probably the only person in the entire capital who could turn them away empty-handed.

“It’s fine, elder brother. Let’s not bother about this matter.” Qiao Mei then said to both Xia Zhe and Xia Wen, “My grandfather cut ties with them back then because he really doesn’t want to interact with them anymore. I would never have known what happened at all if it was not someone else who told me about it after all these years. I think my grandfather’s original intention was for me not to know.”

“Yes, I understand. I’m glad we think the same.” Xia Wen looked at Qiao Mei appreciatively.

The young girl was very meticulous even though she was still young. Back then, before Qiao Mei entered the family, Xia Wen had heard Tan Jing mention a few things. She had heard the gossip from Xu Lan and the other aunts-in-law, and it was all bad things about Qiao Mei. At that time, Xia Wen really thought that there was some unspeakable reason behind Xia Zhe’s decision to marry Qiao Mei.

In fact, it was truly because of an unspeakable reason…

Now that Qiao Mei was a capable girl who was even able to help the Xia family, it was something to be happy about. If Qiao Mei sided with others, it would undoubtedly be fatal to the Xia family. In that case, there would only be two outcomes. There would be a rift between husband and wife, and the Xia family would be greatly affected.

Qiao Mei could also tell that Xia Wen was the one handling all the family matters. As long as Xia Wen understood what she was thinking, then there would be no big problem.

The matter regarding the Liang family was considered settled. Xia Wen looked at Qiao Mei and said, “Professor Zhu said that he doesn’t know how to dig wells, so I found a new person to help. This matter has also been resolved.”

Qiao Mei said happily, “Thank you so much, elder brother. Thank you so much.”

Xia Zhe was still worried about the well. He thought that it would be better for him to keep an eye on this matter personally. He also had to test if the well cover was sturdy enough in case Qiao Mei was not careful. Since he could not dissuade the young girl, he could only find another solution.
