173 Yuezheng Xiao’s Sneering
But that was something for later, when they had built new houses.
The yard at home was not big enough.
While Qiao Xuan was busy making money, Xie Jingrong and Yuezheng Xiao were getting ready to leave the county.
When they were just about to get on the wagon, Strategist Lu hurriedly walked up to them.
It was really very accurate timing!
Strategist Lu had planned it meticulously. He had been waiting next to their place for a long while, before appearing at the right time.
“Young Master Xie, please, stay put!”
Xie Jingrong paused and turned around, looking surprised. “Strategist Lu, it is very kind of you to see us off here.”
Strategist Lu smiled and said with a friendly tone, “You are the honored guest, it is my duty to do so!”
He did not dare to say anything more but handed out an appropriate brocade box. “Young Master Xie, this is the Chinese fleeceflower root which our Officer has found. It is confirmed that this plant is over 200 years old, which is very rare! Our Officer says that he should not keep the treasure, and instead you should have it. Maybe it can be put into practical use by you. This way the good things would not be wasted.”
“It is a gift from our Officer, please accept it! Okay, I won’t delay your departure. Have a nice trip, bye for now Young Master Xie!”
Strategist Lu said all of this with a smooth smile. When he was done, the brocade box was already in the servant’s arm. He took a step backwards and turned around, leaving.
He did everything really fast.
Xie Jingrong was speechless. “…”
Everyone present. “…”
The servant, who was holding the box, turned to Xie Jingrong helplessly. “What…?”
Yuezheng Xiao laughed. Helooked at Xie Jingrong and grinned. “Officer Qiao is fun, Brother Xie, now you owe him big!”
Honestly speaking, a Chinese fleeceflower root over 200 years was indeed very rare, and Xie Jingrong was taking that for his grandma. County Magistrate Qiao gave it to him so that the family could owe him a favor.
Yuezheng Xiao sneered. What a tricky Officer Qiao, so shameless and snooty, how did he manage to cultivate a daughter like Mrs. Shao?
Was he blind to have treated the Elder Miss Qiao as treasure rather than look at Mrs. Shao instead?
No wonder Mrs. Shao insisted that they should not reveal her identity. It would not be good!
If Officer Qiao learned that it was Mrs. Shao, who had found the 500 years old Chinese fleeceflower root for the Xie Family, he would have forced her to ask for the favor for him.
What if he learned about the lipsticks business? He would definitely do something worse.
Mrs. Shao was such a pitiful girl! She must have led a very difficult life.
Xie Jingrong frowned, thought for a while and said to the servant, “Return the brocade box in the intact state to Officer Qiao personally. Just tell him that I have found the Chinese fleeceflower root I needed, and I do not want to take advantage of Officer Qiao. Officer Qiao should keep it for himself!”
Having given the instructions, Xie Jingrong turned around, went on the wagon and ordered the staff to leave.
Yuezheng Xiao was not surprised by what Xie Jingrong did.

This young man looked gentle and handsome, almost as if he were weak, but he was the lineal elder grandson of the Xie Family, who could never be simple-minded or fragile.
He would never allow the Xie Family to owe anyone a favor forcibly!
No one could suck up to him easily either!
Yuezheng Xiao teased him. “But a 200 years old root isn’t that bad either. Why not keep it for Officer Qiao’s sake?”
