1739 Change the Caregiver
“Wait! Six, my sister is young and insensible. She must have been muddle-headed for a moment. Take the things and return them to Qiao Mei. We’ll go and apologize to her later. I still have two bottles of good liquor at home. I don’t drink, so you can take them as well. Can you not blow this matter up?” Tian Jun pulled Six to one side and whispered.
“Brother Tian, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but your sister has really done something very serious this time. Tell me, how can I protect her? I must report it to my superiors. Don’t make things difficult for me.” After saying that, Six walked towards Miao Le.
Miao Le continued to lie on the ground and did not speak. Six asked, “Are you going to take out the things yourself, or should I get someone to search you?”
Before Six could finish speaking, Miao Le went still and pretended to be unconscious. She knew that Six had only brought men with him and they definitely could not touch her!
However, her plan did not work. Six walked to the door and shouted towards the crowd in the corridor, “Are there any female comrades outside? Can you come forward and take out everything from Miao Le’s pocket! My team consists of men, so it’s not convenient!”
Everyone hesitated about whether they should go forward to help. After all, their husbands and Tian Jun were considered colleagues. Some of them were even ranked lower as Tian Jun! No one wanted to offend him.
Jin Yao rushed into the house impulsively and said, “I’ll do it! I’ll help you!”
“Thank you, Sister-in-law, but is it convenient for you since you’re pregnant?” Six asked worriedly.
“Don’t worry! I’m fine!” Jin Yao said confidently.
The two men next to Six went forward to hold Miao Le up. Jin Yao reached into Miao Le’s pockets and took out everything. After that, even Jin Yao was shocked by what she saw.
She did not expect Qiao Mei to have so many pieces of jewelry. Moreover, those gems were especially big and the gold bangles were very thick, even thicker than the handcuffs worn in prison! It was a real eye-opener for her.
“Alright, this matter is over. Thank you, Sister-in-law. We’ll be leaving now.” Six walked in front with the jewelry in a tray and Miao Le followed slowly behind.
Before Miao Le stepped out, she suddenly seemed to wake up from her daze and turned around to shout at Tian Jun, “Brother-in-law, save me! I don’t want to go to jail! Brother-in-law, save me!”
Tian Jun could not do anything about this matter. Their family was in need of money to begin with. He could not possibly sell the house just to bail out Miao Le!
However, Miao Le was Miao Ting’s only younger sister and he could not make the decision on this matter. He still had to tell the Miao family about what happened to Miao Le. That very night, the Miao family arranged for another young girl to go to the military family compound to help Tian Jun take care of his son. This young girl was Miao Ting’s distant cousin and was 16 years old this year. She was good at taking care of people.
The Miao family did not care about Miao Le at all. To them, she was just a useless girl and a money-losing good-for-nothing. They only wanted to protect Tian Jun, their money tree! As long as Tian Jun was still around, their future was secure and Tian Jun would continue to send money to the family.
The new girl’s name was Zou Ping. After she arrived, Zhuang Zhuang gradually gained a lot of weight and looked much better. The house was also neat and tidy and everyone had a good impression of Zou Ping. Tian Jun completely forgot about Miao Le and left her in prison.
It was almost autumn and there was no heating in the house here. When the house was built, there was no wall and floor heating included. If Qiao Mei and the children spent winter here, they would probably freeze to death. Qiao Mei began to think about returning to the capital.
The vegetables in the field were all ready for harvest and easy to deal with, but the livestock at home was her main headache. She needed someone to take care of them.
Early in the morning, she went to Liu Yun’s house. She did not bother to exchange pleasantries with Liu Yun, but just smiled and asked, “Sister-in-law, I’m leaving soon and might only be back in the spring or maybe even after that. I’m wondering if you can help me take care of the livestock at my house.”
