1417 Finding Out More Information

“You’re just bullying the Shao family because we’re weak and defenseless and have no form of support in the capital. You actually do such a despicable thing just to prevent my daughter from marrying into your family! Yet you find excuses for your behavior! Who knows if you’re colluding with those organizations! I don’t believe in anything you say! Anyway, it’s just all part of your scheme!” Shao Zhuang refused to listen to anything and just kept insisting that it was the Xia family’s fault. He felt that so long as he remained so unreasonable, they would not be able to do anything to him.

Qiao Mei smiled. She had encountered so many ruffians and scoundrels in the village in the past. There were so many people who were even worse than Shao Zhuang. Why would she be afraid of Shao Zhuang’s threats? What a joke he was.

At most, she would just borrow a page from those shameless old women and kick up a big fuss to give the Shao family a huge headache!

“Since you say that it’s all a ploy by the Xia family, then let me ask you. Is it the Xia family who has ulterior motives towards the Shao family or is it your Shao family who has ulterior motives towards the Xia family? Is your daughter as beautiful as a fairy or is she very talented, very virtuous, very gentle or very filial to her parents? Is your family so rich that our family needs to eye your money?” Qiao Mei asked.

Speaking of Shao Yin’s looks, she was just ordinary looking and not very outstanding. In a small county city, perhaps she could be considered good-looking. However, for her to claim to be “as beautiful as a fairy” in front of Qiao Mei and Xia He, then that would be too shameless!

Even if one searched the entire capital, one would not be able to find many women who were prettier than Qiao Mei and Xia He.

Shao Yin was illiterate and had never gone to school or learned any musical instruments. Xia He was a trained dancer after all! As for Qiao Mei, she was a very rich woman. What could the Xia family see in Shao Yin, given that she was just a lazy and inept woman?

“Oh right! Your family members say that Shao Yin does not have much capacity for alcohol and that she gets drunk easily and will then sleep until the next day. We all heard it with our own ears. I was the one who asked someone to carry Shao Yin to the back. I should think that your Shao family is considered a ‘prominent’ family in the county city. If I get someone to go and ask around, I’m sure they’ll be able to get back to me very quickly on whether Shao Yin gets drunk easily or not,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Seeing that all the Shao family members were such good drinkers and eloquent speakers, Qiao Mei could roughly guess that the Shao family members liked to go around socializing with others. Some of them probably even relied on their sweet tongues to freeload on food and drinks! To put it nicely, if they went from house to house to freeload during mealtimes, they could save a lot of money.

If the Shao family members usually behaved like this, then there must be many people who secretly hated them! Now that times were hard and everyone found it hard to put food on the table, why would anyone be happy to see freeloaders at their house? Some people were probably too abashed to outrightly reject these people from the Shao family and must have suffered a lot at their hands!

Shao Zhuang immediately looked awkward. He had forgotten all about this! During the day, his attention was all on Xia Wen and he did not notice what was going on with the women at all.

The county city where the Shao family lived was not far from the capital. The Xia family also had a few trusted aides there. It would only take a phone call to check on whether the Shao family members were telling the truth just now.

“That’s right! There’s even no need for us to ask around in the county city! Isn’t there still a bunch of people from your family in the guest houses! I’ll arrange for someone to go and ask them right away! Let’s see if what you said is true!” Xia He ran out and looked for Luo Yu, who was standing guard in the backyard. She asked him to make the arrangements and get it checked out as soon as possible.

While they waited for the news, Xia Jun and Xia Mao arrived in their cars. They did not enter immediately but had stopped outside the door for a while to listen in as Qiao Mei was speaking. Her voice was sonorous and impactful, just as what they expected of the Xia family’s daughter-in-law. They both felt very proud of her.

Xia He also spoke more logically nowadays. She was no longer as hot-tempered as before, when she preferred to let her fists do the talking. It seemed that when it came to her, spending a few months with Qiao Mei was much more useful than going to school!

Previously, whenever there were such situations, it was usually the men from the Xia family holding down the fort. Now, the Xia family had a daughter-in-law who was equally as capable! With a daughter-in-law like Qiao Mei in the Xia family, Xia Jun felt very much at ease. At the very least, Xia Mao’s family would never be in a mess and they would always live together harmoniously.

“Oh, it’s so bustling here. I can already hear the commotion in this room even before entering the house. What’s the issue that’s making the kids in my family so angry?” Xia Jun asked as he walked in.

At that moment, Xia He just came in from outside. When she saw Xia Jun and Xia Mao coming to give them support, she almost felt like crying aggrievedly. Just now, she and Qiao Mei had to struggle to hold the fort as Shao Zhuang pressured them constantly and refused to give in.
