1198 Fake Medicine
Xia Zhe immediately frowned to show his displeasure. If there was a way for him to go to the toilet on Qiao Mei’s behalf, then he would make sure that Qiao Mei did not need to get down from the hospital bed for the rest of her life. At most, he would just wait on Qiao Mei forever. It was no big deal. Which side of Qiao Mei had he not seen yet?
What was this about how a woman should go to work in the fields right after giving birth! That was all nonsense! He did not care about what other people did and did not want to know. What was wrong with him wanting Qiao Mei to be comfortable and not have to worry about anything? It was not Jiang Yi’s place to criticize him.
She should just take a look at her own life! Just because she was not doing well herself, she wanted others to suffer with her!
Seeing that Xia Zhe did not look too happy, Jiang Yi quickly said, “Oh my, I’m simply too anxious and muddle-headed. A lot of things have happened in my family and I am all over the place! Please don’t mind me. After all, I’m just a boor and I don’t know anything. I’m just passing a remark, so don’t take me too seriously.”
Qiao Mei smiled faintly and did not say anything. She knew what Jiang Yi meant. She spoke as if she was apologizing to them, but she was actually trying to remind them tactfully that something had happened to the Tan family recently. She wanted Qiao Mei to be the one to ask her about it!
Qiao Mei was not a fool! She must quickly send Jiang Yi away!
“It’s fine, I won’t blame you. Since something has happened in your family, then you should go back. There’s nothing much for you to do here. Auntie, you should go back quickly,” Qiao Mei said.
“Sigh… I want to go back too, but this matter is really too serious. I can’t manage to contact Tan Jing and Xia Wen has been busy recently, so I don’t know what to do,” Jiang Yi said as she wiped the corners of her eyes with her sleeve, looking as if she was really sad.
“Oh, it sounds really serious. That’s really a headache. My little family doesn’t have the clout to do much for you. I just hope that you don’t tire yourself out. I believe my eldest brother will find some time to deal with this matter,” Qiao Mei said.
Seeing that Qiao Mei had no intention of helping her, Jiang Yi went forward and grabbed Qiao Mei’s hands. She wept and said, “No, no! You’re the only one who can help me with this matter! I’ll tell you the truth! I’m really at my wits’ end. My husband is so sick that he can’t get up from bed. Our family doesn’t have any money and the children refuse to come back. If you don’t help me, I really don’t know what to do!”
Qiao Mei pursed her lips. She was curious about why Jiang Yi wanted to look for her and what the big issue was. She did not expect to have gotten herself into big trouble. It was truly easier to raise the devil than to lay him.
Xia Zhe stood at the side and found it difficult to say anything. After all, this was a matter between women. It would definitely make things more troublesome if he said any words of criticism. However, he could not bear to see Qiao Mei continue to be harassed by Jiang Yi. He felt caught in a difficult position
“Auntie, this matter is easy to deal with! When my father-in-law fell sick some time back, I gave him some medicinal wine. He is in even better health than Xia Zhe now! Let me give you some too. Once Uncle drinks it, he’ll definitely recover!” Qiao Mei said.
“Sure, sure, sure! I just know that you’re a nice girl! You definitely won’t leave me in the lurch! One look and I can tell that you’re a blessed person! You’ll always live a rich and comfortable life!” Jiang Yi smiled so widely that the corners of her mouth almost reached her ears.
Qiao Mei secretly gave Xia Zhe a look and he immediately understood what she meant. He quickly walked to the living room outside. Recently, Qiao Mei had a craving for canned food, so there were many bottles and jars that they had not thrown out yet. Xia Zhe randomly picked one and tore off the packaging on it. He then found a bottle of water and poured some into it. After sealing the lid, he brought it into the room.
“Auntie, this is the medicine that Qiao Mei mentioned. You must keep it well and not let anyone else know. No one outside knows about this! If word gets out, I’m afraid you won’t be able to have any more medicine in the future,” Xia Zhe said to Jiang Yi in a cautious manner.
Jiang Yi immediately hugged the glass bottle like it was a treasure! Worried that others would find out, she hurriedly thanked Xia Zhe and Qiao Mei and left. If Xia Zhe had not personally sent her out the door, the two security officers would have thought that she had stolen something!
Her posture was really too strange.
After Jiang Yi left, Qiao Mei could not help but laugh out loud. This woman was really easy to fool. Jiang Yi believed anything she said and she wondered how Tan Jing had gotten caught in an entanglement with Jiang Yi for so long.
