Liu Yun took out a metal biscuit tin from the cabinet. It was obvious that it was very well-used. Qiao Mei had also seen such a biscuit tin at Li Guis place. It seemed that everyone stored important items in the same way.

Heres a total of 3,500 dollars! Its all the money I earned from selling the vegetables over the past two years! Here you go! Liu Yun said excitedly.

But I didnt do anything at all. You are the one who grew the vegetables and built the greenhouses. I only supply the land. You dont have to give me so much money, Qiao Mei said.

Take it! This sum of money is yours! I still have so many greenhouses at home! This amount of money is from selling the vegetables grown at your house. I have my own! Dont stand on ceremony with me! Otherwise, I wont be able to face you in the future! Liu Yun said sternly.

Seeing Liu Yuns firm att.i.tude, Qiao Mei accepted the money and said happily, Thank you so much.

What are you saying! I should be the one thanking you! Liu Yun said.

In the past, her own family did not really like her. Although Liu Dong worked in the army and it was considered a very good job in everyones eyes, Liu Dongs position was very junior and his salary was quite low. His salary could barely support his entire family.

Liu Yun had given Liu Dong two sons. Based on their financial situation, it looked to be very difficult for her sons to get married in the future. They lived on a very tight budget and could not even bear to buy meat to eat. They would only be willing to buy a small piece of meat during the new year and festive season.

After Qiao Mei came to the military family compound, Liu Yuns life had improved greatly. Now that the economy had opened up, she could go out to sell vegetables without any fear and could even earn more money than Liu Dong in a year. The relations.h.i.+p between her and her family had also gotten better and better. Her parents att.i.tude towards her had changed a lot and she felt that she could now face everyone with a sense of pride.

She had Qiao Mei to thank for all these. If not for Qiao Mei showing her the world and widening her horizon, she would probably still be living the same life as before. She did not mind even if she had to give Qiao Mei all the money she had earned from farming both plots of land in the past two years!

Since you put it this way, Ill accept it. I have brought some sweets and chocolates for your children, as well as clothes for you and your husband. Ill get Xia Zhe to pa.s.s them to you later, Qiao Mei said.

Oh my, you still think about our family even though youre away from here! Dont buy so many things next time. It just adds weight to your luggage! Dont tire yourself out. Im very happy as long as you come back, Liu Yun said sincerely.

When your husband has some time, you can come to the capital to look for me. Ill bring you out to have a good time, Qiao Mei said.

Sure! Liu Yun agreed readily.

After a simple catch-up, Qiao Mei returned to her own house with the money. Xia Zhe was stunned when he saw the amount of money in Qiao Meis hand. He did not expect her to be able to earn so much from selling vegetables in the past two years.

Why did you start cleaning up without me? Qiao Mei quickly kept the money and joined him in doing the ch.o.r.es.

Its nothing too difficult. Lets just clean up quickly and then head home. Otherwise, Mother and Eldest Brother will feel anxious, Xia Zhe said.

By the time they finished cleaning up, it was already late at night. The two of them drove back to the courtyard house in the capital. The first thing Xia Zhe did when he got home was to go and take a look at the children. By this time, the children were already fast asleep. He sat quietly next to their beds and looked at them. Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

Why are you staring for such a long time? Qiao Mei came to Xia Zhes side and whispered to him.

The children have all grown up in the blink of an eye. Xia Fan and Xia Xing are already five years old, and Xia Yue is already more than two years old. Weve also been married for five years, Xia Zhe said emotionally.

Thats true. Time really flies. In a while, the children will be all grown up and well both be old with white hair, Qiao Mei said.

You wont be the one with white hair. Ill age faster than you, Xia Zhe said with a smile.

Qiao Meis eyes instantly reddened. Even if she fed Xia Zhe ginseng juice every day, they could not live forever.

Dont cry! Lets not say such depressing things now that we are reunited. Lets go out and let the children have a good nights sleep. Xia Zhe carried Qiao Mei back to the bedroom and the two of them spent the night cuddling together.
