After emptying her family's fortune, the pampered young lady went to join the army while heavil

Chapter 5 isn't just about one person.
She reached out and probed, and every time she did, she found the answer.

She actually found the place where Chen Guoqing hid the stolen money and supplies.

That's how she went to Qiao Guowei's house, used him as a front, and then secretly asked someone to inform Chen Guoqing that someone was trying to get him. Of course, she also didn't forget to write a report to the police.

As she predicted, Chen Guoqing was arrested, and Qiao Guowei certainly wouldn't fare any better.

Furthermore, she also took advantage of the situation to steal a warehouse full of supplies and a sack of large sums of money that Chen Guoqing had painstakingly accumulated over many years.

Everyone truly has a bright future!
With a faint smile on her lips, Qiao Nian rested her hand on her slightly protruding belly and drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, Qiao Nian went back to the alley to find Qiao Si and ask her if she had mailed the letter.

Qiao Si finished writing last night and was just about to mail it.

Seeing the 'God of Wealth' return, she quickly pulled him into the house, pointed to Qiao Wenli's house across the street, and told Qiao Nian what had happened last night.

"Sister Niannian, you didn't see it. Auntie is really crazy. She even dares to kill a police officer."

Qiao Si looked longingly at the gold bar in Qiao Nian's hand, treating her with utmost politeness.

She kept calling me "Sister Nian Nian".

Qiao Nian smiled and took the letter from Qiao Si's hand.

“Buying stamps costs a lot of money, I can just mail them.”

After speaking, he glanced around the room, deliberately pretending to be confused.

"Where's my second uncle? Isn't he home?"

"Did he take my gold and refuse to share it with me?"

"how could it be possible?"

Although Qiao Si felt it was very likely, she was unwilling to admit it on the surface.

"Qiao Nian, don't slander my father so easily."

"Oh."

As soon as Qiao Nian finished speaking, Qian Yufen, who had just gone to buy groceries, rushed in.

Her face was full of anxiety.

"Something terrible has happened, Sisi, your dad has been taken to the police station."

"what?"

Qiao Si was startled. "Why was he taken to the police station all of a sudden?"

After saying this, Qiao Si immediately looked at Qiao Nian.

"Qiao Nian, what's going on?"

Qiao Nian spread her hands, "I don't know either."

"You should ask the police instead of me."

"Did my second uncle secretly take away my money and get caught by the police and arrested?"

"Absolutely impossible!" Qiao Si

Qian Yufen was very anxious, but she didn't say anything.

Needless to say, she must have thought that her husband was capable of doing such a thing.

"What do we do now, Sisi? Should we go to the police station?"

"how could I know?"

Qiao Si was also very unhappy.

Qiao Nian smiled and turned to leave. "Second Aunt, let's go. I'll go with you to take a look."

"I'd like to ask my second uncle where he hid my money!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Yufen immediately followed.

Qiao Si stomped her foot in place, then followed after him.

Inside the Public Security Bureau.

After being interrogated all night, Qiao Guowei had long lost his previous energy.

The men he brought with him all confessed that he was the one who sent them.

They were reprimanded by the police and taken to the detention center for half a month before they could go home.

But Qiao Guowei couldn't do it.

He hasn't explained things clearly yet.

Qiao Guowei's head was spinning, and he didn't have the energy to think of a solution.

"dad?"

"Guowei." His wife and daughter's voices rang out from outside. Qiao Guowei, his face bruised and swollen, looking unrecognizable, raised his heavy head.

His gaze passed over his wife and daughter and landed directly on Qiao Nian.

He jumped to his feet.

"Qiao Nian, Qiao Nian, you brat, why did you hurt me? Why did you hurt me?"

Qiao Nian moved aside to avoid being touched by Qiao Guowei.

He asked in a very calm tone, "Second Uncle, what makes you say that?"

"I haven't even questioned you about why you didn't come home all night, and you're blaming me for hurting you? That's completely unreasonable."

Qiao Guowei was furious. "You haven't harmed me yet?"

He endured the pain on his face, his finger trembling as he pointed to the side, "You said that was your grandmother's old courtyard, so why did Chen Guoqing go there? Why was there only money in the box we saw, and no gold?"

"Oh, Second Uncle, so you're going to blame me now?"

"Shouldn't we question my uncle about why he secretly sold off the wealth left to me by my grandmother and turned it into money?"

Qiao Nian's tone was indifferent, revealing neither joy nor anger.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Guowei was completely stunned.

He had thought about many things, and he always felt that Qiao Nian was the one who was harming him, but he never thought that Chen Guoqing might have taken those things for himself first!

If that's the case, wouldn't his dream of getting rich have been shattered before it even began?

Qiao Guowei slumped back onto the stool.

Totally hopeless.

Upon seeing this, a smile flashed in Qiao Nian's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

She pretended to be sad and said to Qiao Guowei, "Second Uncle, I'm not lying to you. That house is under my maternal grandmother's name. You can check with the housing management bureau if you don't believe me."

"My grandmother told me that there was something inside."

"But I really don't know why the things my grandmother left me disappeared and turned into boxes of 'big unity' (a type of Chinese currency)."

Before Qiao Guowei could even understand what she was saying, Qian Yufen gritted her teeth and said, "What else is there not to understand? It was that couple who were greedy."

"No wonder they live such a good life, eating and drinking well every day. It turns out they stole so much money early on."

As Qiao Si listened to their conversation, she slowly realized something.

Her dream of becoming rich was shattered.

"Dad, Mom, I've said it before: my uncle and his family are not good people."

“They live in the same courtyard, and they’re doing so well, but they never let us know.”

“They see us eating coarse food every day and haven’t offered to help us. They might even be laughing at us!”

Qiao Si looked furious.

Qian Yufen continued, following her daughter's words, "Yes, Guowei, you don't know, last night when the police went to their house, they found another bed full of money under Qiao Wenli's bed."

"what?"

Qiao Guowei really didn't expect this.

His sister and brother-in-law, who lived across the street from him, were incredibly wealthy.

"It's true that my uncle is the purchasing director of the supply and marketing cooperative, but how could he have accumulated so much money by just selling rice and flour?"

"No doubt, he must have stolen and sold the things my grandmother left behind to get so much money."

"That's all the money they left behind. If we add in what they've already spent..."

Qiao Nian shook her head in disbelief. "No, I have to ask my uncle why he did this to me!"

She turned and walked out.

Qiao Si and Qian Yufen also quickly followed.

As for Qiao Guowei, his fists were clenched tightly! His eyes were practically spitting fire!
What a Chen Guoqing!

Qiao Nian arrived at the place where Chen Guoqing was being held and asked to see him.

The police officer glanced at her, then at Qiao Si and Qian Yufen beside her, and slowly nodded.

"I can only say a few words."

Qiao Nian thanked her and stepped inside.

Chen Guoqing's injury was more serious than Qiao Guowei's, but it wasn't on his face, so it wasn't very noticeable.

The moment Chen Guoqing saw Qiao Nian, he thought she was a ghost coming to claim his life, and he turned pale with fright.

"Qiao Nian! What are you doing here?"
