Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Mei Mei, wait for me while I go home for a bit. I live in this compound too, so I’ll be back soon.” After saying that, Liu Yang rushed home.

“Hey! Uncle! There’s no need!” Qiao Mei stuck her head out of the kitchen and said.

Before Qiao Mei could finish speaking, Liu Yang left for his house and Xia Fang did not stop him.

Usually, it would be extremely difficult to get anything from Liu Yang. He was willing to give Qiao Mei a gift only because of how she was related to Xia Zhe. Within this compound, Liu Yang was famous for being stingy.

“It’s fine, Mei Mei. Just make a couple more dishes for him. Don’t mind it,” Xia Fang said.

Qiao Mei nodded and returned to the kitchen to continue cooking. She made a few more nice dishes so that she could show off her culinary skills to Liu Yang.

When Liu Yang got home, he started rummaging through the house to see if there were any suitable gifts for a girl. He went through all his things but there was nothing except for liquor.

There was nothing he could do but to bring two bottles of good liquor to Xia Fang’s house.

As soon as he entered, Xia Fang saw the two bottles and liquor and said, “Hey, why do you always bring liquor around? Are you an alcoholic?”

“It’s not for you, what’s your problem!” Liu Yang said.

Xia Fang and Liu Yang often bickered with each other, but they would also always side with each other. They were both stubborn but soft-hearted.

“Mei Mei, these two bottles are good medicinal liquor. You can bring them to your grandfather, they’re good as tonics.” Liu Yang put down the bottles and shouted towards the kitchen.

After knowing that Xia Zhe got married, the first thing he did was to check on Qiao Mei’s family background. When he knew that her grandfather was Qiao Qiang, he was sure that this would be an appropriate gift.

When Qiao Qiang was younger, he loved to drink and was the best drinker in the army. However, after the army banned drinking, everyone forgot about it.

“He’s an old man now! You still want to encourage him to drink!” Xia Fang said as she glared at Liu Yang.

Liu Yang could only rub his head and give her a silly smile. He really had nothing else to give.

As Qiao Mei fried the vegetables, she said, “Thank you, Uncle! My grandfather really loves to drink! I was still worried that I don’t have any good liquor that I can use to steep the wild ginseng at home for my grandfather.”

The moment he heard about wild ginseng, Liu Yang immediately perked up.

“Wild ginseng! On the mountain near your house?” Liu Yang asked.

“Yes, there are a lot on the mountain behind my house!” Qiao Mei said.

Hearing this, Liu Yang’s eyes lit up and he asked excitedly, “Then how many do you have at home! How old are they!”

“My grandfather often explores around the mountains. There are 10-year and 20-year ones, and there’s even one that’s 100 years old,” Qiao Mei said.

“What!!!” Liu Yang looked towards the kitchen in surprise. He quickly walked into the kitchen and looked at Qiao Mei. “100 years old?”

Qiao Mei nodded and said, “Really, it’s a 100-year-old wild ginseng.”

Even Xia Fang was shocked. She also walked over and looked at Qiao Mei curiously.

The price of a 100-year-old wild ginseng could not even be estimated. It was something that could only be chanced upon by luck and was a rare treasure.

“My grandfather asked me to bring it along on this trip. He told me to see if we can find a buyer for it in the capital. Then I’ll be able to buy a house in the capital. When the time comes, I’ll join Xia Zhe in the capital, and my grandfather will also come here to live,” Qiao Mei said.

She was only using Qiao Qiang as an excuse. In fact, she was the one who wanted to buy a house. She thought that if she bought one now, its value would become much higher in the future.

Besides, she also wanted to study in the capital. If she bought a house now, it would be more convenient for her in the future. She did not think it was right for her to go to the Xia family residence and live with Xia Zhe’s parents.

She definitely intended to be a military spouse, but she could request not to follow the army everywhere. After all, she still wanted to have her own life and would not give up on herself for Xia Zhe.

She still wanted to live her own life. Otherwise, she would have wasted her rebirth.

This time round, she must live her life well.

“There’s no need to buy a house. When you become a military spouse, you’ll be allocated one. Moreover, Xia Zhe’s grandmother left behind an old house in the capital for Xia Zhe,” Xia Fang said.

Xia Zhe’s grandmother was also from a prominent and wealthy family in the capital. When she got married, her dowry included an old house. Before she passed away, she made it very clear that she wanted to give the house to Xia Zhe and that no one else should even have an eye on it.
