"It's better not to tell anyone else at home about this. It's enough for just the three of us to know. The more people who know, the more dangerous it will be for you. It might not be a good thing to have so much money," Xia He said cautiously.
eαglesnovel`c,om "Alright, I'll do what you say," Qiao Mei said with a smile.
Qiao Mei also understood what Xia He meant. There would not be any peace in the family, especially if Zhou Hua and Tan Jing found out about it. Tan Jing would only become more demanding and ask Xia Wen to come and ask Qiao Mei for things. She was only asking for the house now, but she might be asking for money in the future.
Those were the type of people who did not want anyone else to live a happier life than them. If your life was going well, they would only be crazily jealous of you and even want to drag you down and ruin your family. Only then would they feel happy.
They would continue to suck your blood under the pretext that relatives should help one another, until they completely drained you of everything that was of value to them.
Zhou Hua was a perfect example. She just could not bear to see Xia Zhe's whole family living better than hers. She could not understand why among Wu Min's children, only the eldest son's family benefited from the inheritance and no one else. That was why she made contact with He Ning and did something unfavorable to the Xia family.
As soon as the farce in the front yard ended, a commotion broke out in the backyard for some reason. The three people in the house were very puzzled to hear a sharp voice. There were only two girls in the backyard, Zhang Qin and Zhang Miao. How could there be a woman arguing with Zheng Peng? Who was it? Could it be that Old Madam Fan had come knocking on their door?
The three of them rushed to the backyard. Xia He held on to Qiao Mei, worried that she might get into an accident. When they reached the backyard and took a closer look, they realized that it was Qian'e!
"What right do you have to stop me from taking the child! It's not like I'm taking everyone away! Can't I just take Zhang Miao!" Qian'e raised her head strenuously and shouted at Zheng Peng.
The petite Qian'e looked like a little kid in front of Zheng Peng. Zheng Peng did not know who this woman was, but she wanted to bring Zhang Miao into the room as soon as she entered the backyard. She did not stop to speak to him. Since he was the children's teacher, he must ensure the children's safety. He could not let a stranger bring the children out of his sight.
"I don't know who you are. You can't take the child away!" Zheng Peng said sternly.
Qian'e stomped her feet in anger. She had never seen such a dogged person before. She had already said many times that she was here to teach a class, that she was not a human trafficker and that she was Qiao Mei's good friend. Zheng Peng was simply extremely stubborn!
Qian'e only fell short of throwing her piano certificate and the award certificate she had received back then at Zheng Peng's face.
At this time of the day, Qiao Qiang had already gone to Zhou Sheng's house to play chess. He might not be able to go to the park, but he could still go to someone else's house. He felt that he was too old to waste his time in the house every day.
"I'm her piano teacher! She needs to attend my class now! Move aside! If you're not happy, go and check with Qiao Mei! I still have other classes to go to later!" Qian'e said.
Zheng Peng looked at Qian'e stubbornly and said, "I'm their teacher now. They can't go with you."
"Zhang Miao is only four years old! Why does she need physical training! There's no need to learn elementary school knowledge at kindergarten age! Kids should learn the right things for their age! Just teach the remaining children well! I don't want to waste time arguing with you! Quickly move aside and don't waste everyone's time!" Qian'e said with a frown.
Qiao Mei quickly went forward to stop the fight. Qian'e had not been here for almost half a month and she had forgotten about the fact that she signed Zhang Miao up for piano lessons. Xia He only taught Zhang Qin basic skills when she had some free time. Recently, Qiao Mei had not been feeling well and did not pay as much attention to the children as she used to.
"Alright, alright! Stop arguing! It's all my fault. I got the schedules mixed up. How about this, you bring Miao Miao to piano class and the rest of the children follow Professor Zheng for elementary school lessons?" Qiao Mei asked with a smile.
"No way! I'm so angry when I see this man!" Qian'e said angrily as she looked at Qiao Mei.
Qiao Mei quickly pulled Qian'e aside and said, "Just do it for me. I really forgot to tell anyone about this. I haven't been feeling well recently. Can you just take pity on me?"
