1009 The Ginseng Becomes a Spirit

Su Li hoped that her own family’s future would not be affected by Old Madam Fan. She did not want to have anything to do with this family anymore.

Qiao Mei was at home listening to Zhang Miao playing the piano when her pager suddenly vibrated a few times. Qiao Mei walked into the courtyard and shouted, “Elder sister! Officer Zou contacted me! Can you help me reply to him! Elder sister! Come quickly!”

Xia He muttered under her breath as she walked over from the front yard and said, “Qiao Mei! Do I owe you something in my previous life! I have to be ordered around by you like this in this life! I must have done something wrong to you in my previous life! Seriously!”

Qiao Mei laughed out loud when she heard what Xia He said. Perhaps there was really some grudge between Xia He and her in their previous lives. Xia He had liked Qiao Mei very much when they first met, so there must be a reason for it.

“I’ll buy you a house! Is a house good enough! Don’t be angry!” Qiao Mei said.

“I’d rather believe that there are ghosts in this world than believe in what you say!” Xia He said out of exasperation.

Although Xia He was unforgiving with her words, her movements were very gentle. The owner of the phone booth was by now very familiar with Xia He. He thought that he had never seen a person who liked to make phone calls so much.

“Say, young lady, does your family run some sort of business? You seem to need to use the phone every day,” the boss asked curiously.

“My family has many relatives who are always on the move. It’s not easy to get a phone line in this area, so I have no choice but to come to your place often,” Xia He said sadly.

Actually, they could jointly apply to the government for it but the boss did not tell Xia He about this. If every family in the vicinity had a phone, then what about his business? It was better not to say too much.

Xia He read the message on the pager and quickly dialed the number listed in it. Not long after, the other party picked up the phone.

“Hello, Officer Zou. Are there any new developments in the case?” Xia He asked.

“Yes, the Su family has agreed to pay compensation. It’s best if we can discuss this matter face to face. Sun Juan and Zhou Shuang must be present, otherwise the negotiations will be invalid. The parties involved must be present,” Zou Ming said awkwardly.

Every day, Zhou Shuang needed an injection of anti-inflammatory medication. Qiao Mei had even given her some 100-year-old ginseng juice so that she could apply it on her wound every day and it had allowed her to recover well. Sun Juan had already completely recovered. Now, Zhou Shuang was staying over at Sun Juan’s house and the clinic staff would come and give her the injection every day. Her two children were still living at Feng Hong’s house and she only intended to bring them home when this matter was resolved.

Given that kids were still quite fragile, the adults tried their best not to let the kids feel traumatized.

“Then you can come over to our house when you’re free. They’ve already been discharged from the hospital,” Xia He said.

“Alright, then I’ll see you tomorrow,” Zou Ming said.

Xia He suddenly seemed to have thought of something and asked in a hurry, “Um… Officer Zou, is it a convenient time for you now? Let’s deal with this matter as soon as possible. After all, everyone here is not in good health. If we drag it out day after day, it won’t be good for everyone’s recovery process.”

These were people that Zou Ming could not afford to offend. He had no reason to reject Xia He’s request and agreed readily. He told her that he would be at Qiao Mei’s house in two hours.

Xia He did not want to have something happening every day! They had not had a peaceful life for a long time. Even if the Heavenly Emperor came for a visit tomorrow, they would not entertain him! They must take a good break!

“Qiao Mei! Why are you sleeping again!” Xia He asked with a frown.

Qiao Mei just felt very tired. Perhaps it had something to do with what happened last night. Last night, she felt very angry and could not sleep, so she planted a small ginseng seedling and slowly transferred energy into the flower pot. Not long after, Qiao Mei started to drift off and stare into the distance in a daze. By the time Qiao Mei came back to her senses, the roots of the ginseng were moving around uncontrollably.

Its color was also different from other ginsengs. There was a faint golden glow around it and Qiao Mei could also feel that the energy in her body was about to be sucked dry by this ginseng.

This ginseng could even run around on its own! It was as if it had really become a spirit.
