My Husband and I Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies to Farm

113 Chapter 113 Searching

Qiao Mu naturally heard the conversation and nodded repeatedly. “I did. I asked Qiao Yuan to inform the officers who were assigned there personally. They also brought back a lot of medicinal herbs.”

“Go and call Qiao Yuan over. See if he told anyone else.” Elder Qiao said thoughtfully.

Although Qiao Mu felt that his son would not reveal anything, he still turned around and called him.

After Qiao Yuan found out why Elder Qiao was looking for him, he had a troubled expression on his face.

!!

When Elder Qiao saw this, he knew that he had most likely leaked the news because he was the kind of person who would spit out the truth after drinking two mouthfuls of wine. He stepped forward and kicked him in the stomach angrily, “Tell me, who did you leak it to? Otherwise, I’ll break your legs.”

“Yes, yes, hurry up and say it. This matter is very important.” Qiao Mu said as he stepped forward and helped Qiao Yuan with a pained expression.

Qiao Yuan panted heavily as he clutched his stomach. Then, he said hesitantly, “Yes, I told the young lady’s maidservant Yu ‘er.”

“Nonsense, how could it be her?” Elder Qiao denied it immediately.

Then, he looked at Qiao Yuan coldly and asked again, “Speak, who is it?”

Qiao Yuan’s neck involuntarily shrank back when he met his cold gaze. He took two steps back and said, “Master, I would never dare lie to you. I only told the young lady’s maidservant, Yu ‘er.”

When Qiao Mu saw Elder Qiao’s frighteningly dark expression, he hurriedly said, “Could it be that Yu ‘er accidentally leaked it, or someone bribed her?”

Although Elder Qiao didn’t say anything after hearing that, his expression was clearly much better. Then, he pointed at Qiao Yuan and said, “Come with me.

“Qiao Mu, please help me entertain Constable Li and the others.”

“Yes, don’t worry about that.” Qiao Mu said and looked at Qiao Yuan worriedly. “Do a good job with master and say what you know. Understand?

“I know, father.”

“Let’s go,” said Elder Qiao as he turned around and walked toward the backyard.

He didn’t expect to see a figure flash past before entering the second gate.

Elder Qiao was stunned for a moment. He chased after her and didn’t expect to chase her to Miss Qiao’s courtyard.

Then, he raised his head and shook at Qiao Yuan, quietly walking over.

“Miss, master seems to be heading to the backyard.”

“So what if he’s here? Isn’t it normal for my father to come to the backyard?”

“But, but… I just heard that the master and the others are investigating something unusual. I’m afraid…”

“Coward, it’s already been a few days. Who would still pay attention to such a small matter?

“By the way, what’s going on in the front yard? When can we leave? I…” Before Miss Qiao could finish her sentence, Elder Qiao lifted the curtain and walked in with a dark face.

When Miss Qiao saw him enter, she was stunned for a moment. Then, she gave Yu ‘er a look, got up, and quickly rushed toward Elder Qiao to hug him.

However, she was slapped to the side by Elder Qiao.

Yu ‘er and Qiao Yuan were shocked. They had seen how much the elder doted on the young miss. This was also why the people in the manor were so accommodating to Miss Qiao and the people around her.

He had never thought that Elder Qiao would one day hit her. More importantly, slapping so ruthlessly.

As for Miss Qiao, she was at first stunned, then in disbelief. When she returned to her senses, she felt a burning pain in her face and teeth.

A mouthful of blood-stained drool instantly flowed out when she opened her mouth. Drop by drop; it dripped onto the ground. In just a moment, the blood had covered the ground, scaring Miss Qiao silly.
