Qin Ming replied: "We caught him when he came to attend the funeral. Of course, Qiao Xi also wanted to come back to get the notebook back. We caught him when he was rummaging through the suitcase. In addition, we found his fingerprints and handwriting on the notebook. He can't argue."

"A lot of people involved were arrested, and their testimonies can prove that this matter is related to Qiao Xi. Not only did we recover the losses, but we also confiscated a large number of goods. The largest smuggling gang entrenched in Shencheng was destroyed."

Liu Meilan smiled, "That's good."

Just at this time, Liu Xiangbei came to Uncle Liu's tobacco and liquor store carrying fruits and supplements.

"Uncle, I'm here to visit you!" Liu Xiangbei said with a smile, "Sister Meilan, Officer Qin, hello."

When Uncle Liu saw his nephew, although he knew that his eldest brother's family was not honest, he could not turn his face away when his nephew came to him with a smile, "Xiangbei, next time you come here, don't buy anything."

"How can I come to visit my second uncle empty-handed?" Liu Xiangbei said with a smile, taking out a big red envelope, "Besides, my family has already obtained my sister's shares and song copyrights. This is the 20,000 yuan I pay back to my second uncle."

Uncle Liu was stunned. "Just give me 10,000 yuan, no need to give me 20,000 yuan."

"If my second uncle hadn't told Officer Qin, I might not have survived to get the money." Liu Xiangbei said, "Second uncle, you must accept this money."

Hearing this, Uncle Liu took the red envelope, but counted out 10,000 yuan from it and kept the remaining 10,000 yuan in the red envelope. "Xiangbei, if Meixiang hadn't been in a relationship with Qin Ming, I would have accepted the 20,000 yuan you gave me. After all, your family lent me this 10,000 yuan five years ago. With the principal and interest, plus inflation, I wouldn't be taking advantage of you if I took an extra 10,000 yuan from you."

"Mei Xiang is in love with Qin Ming now, and this has happened to her. It would be inappropriate for me to take even a penny more. I once told your second aunt that our family doesn't have any great abilities, but we will never hold Mei Xiang back. Don't make it difficult for me, and take the money back quickly."

Liu Meilan nodded and said, "Take it back. Some money can't be taken casually."

Liu Xiangbei was stunned and put away the red envelope. "Second Uncle, I don't mean anything else, I just want to thank you!"

Uncle Liu nodded, "Okay, I appreciate your thanks, take it back. I won't keep you at home for dinner, but since you call me Uncle, I'll say one more thing. Don't let your father and brother have too much money. They are useless and lazy. They become bad when they have money."

Liu Xiangbei nodded repeatedly when he heard this. "Uncle, don't worry. I sold the shares for 10 million yuan. I used the money to buy shops and houses without my father and brother's consent."

"The shops on the upper and lower floors are 300 square meters, and each one costs 2.4 million yuan. I bought three, one for each of my parents, my brother, and me. Then I bought three houses on the same floor not far from the shops."

"The house I live in is being renovated, and I rent out my shop and my parents' shop. The rent is enough for my expenses and my parents' retirement. My eldest brother and his wife's shop is being renovated, and they are preparing to open a cold drink and fruit store."

Uncle Liu was happy because at least there was someone sensible in the eldest brother's family. "Xiangbei, you are the smartest one in your family. It would be great if you could be the head of the family."

Liu Xiangbei smiled and said, "I didn't think so much before, but after this incident, I know that having a lot of money is not always a good thing. If you use money in the wrong way, it will bring disaster to your family."

Uncle Liu nodded, "Yes, it's good that you think so. Just finish your studies well and don't think too much. You should wear a hat that matches your ability."

Liu Xiangbei nodded, "Uncle, I understand. I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye, Uncle. Goodbye, Sister Meilan. Goodbye, Officer Qin."

"Be careful on the road, study hard, and stay on the right path." Uncle Liu reminded him. Sometimes it's just so strange, the bloodline can't be cut off.

Even if there are grudges, it’s better not to meet. Once we meet, our emotions will always be moved.

Liu Xiangbei smiled and said, "Second Uncle, please don't send me off. You and Second Aunt should also take care of your health."

After Liu Xiangbei left, Uncle Liu sighed, "At last there is someone with a normal brain in the eldest brother's family. If they were like that couple, this family would be ruined sooner or later."

Liu Meilan nodded in agreement, "Second Uncle is right. Liu Xiangbei has a lot of little thoughts, but at least he is a smart man."

"Who says it's not true?" Uncle Liu sighed, "The eldest couple look smart, but they are actually just pretending to be smart. They can't even figure out their own business, and they still want to have a good opportunity. Let's buy a shop in the north and collect rent for them to open a shop. At least they have a house and a shop, so they won't have to worry about their future."

Liu Meilan looked at Qin Ming, "Qin Ming, did Ye Lingling just willingly give the money to Liu Xiangbei?"

Qin Ming chuckled, "She really didn't want to give it, but the lawyer Liu Xiangbei hired was very good, at the same level as Ye Lingling's father, and they had a grudge against each other, but he won the lawsuit. Liu Xiangbei was protected because of the smuggling case, so Ye Lingling's little tricks were not used. Later, I went to investigate the smuggling case and checked her company by the way, and then she became honest."

Liu Meilan shook her head and laughed, "This Liu Xiangbei can be considered a blessing in disguise."

Qin Ming nodded, "Yes. Ye Lingling was also worried about bringing trouble to her company, so she and Dong Yunyun bought back Liu Ruoshi's former shares."

After chatting for a while and learning the general situation, Liu Meilan sighed, "I thought I was making money from fishing, but look at other people who are smuggling, they are making hundreds of millions. No wonder there are people who keep smuggling, and there is no end to it."

Uncle Liu was nervous, "Meilan, we don't envy that kind of shady money. Fishing is hard, but every fish is caught by us with great effort, and it's clean. Just like the money I make from running a tobacco shop, it's all clean and can withstand inspection. Let alone tens of millions, even if you give me hundreds of millions, I wouldn't want to make that kind of money."

In Uncle Liu's mind, Liu Meilan is fully capable of smuggling, but she cannot make that kind of money.

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Uncle, I was just talking, I didn't intend to do smuggling. I won't do anything illegal."

"That's right!" Uncle Liu smiled, "A gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way."

Qin Ming had been listening quietly to the conversation between Uncle Liu and Liu Meilan, and he had a deeper understanding of his future father-in-law.

It seems that he has good vision. Although the family he found a partner in is not intellectual, nor is it from a military or public service background, at least the family tradition is very good.

For example, when he returned the money just now, it would have been fine if he had taken it all, but in order not to cause him trouble, I only took 10,000.

For example, he didn't want to have too much contact with Liu Xiangbei, for fear of being entangled by that family.

It is very rare to find elders with good family traditions and good sense of propriety.

Liu Meixiang is lively and gentle, and Liu Xiangbei is hardworking and motivated, both of them are good.

Qin Ming felt the strong sense of everyday life from them and felt very relaxed. The relationship between them became better and better.
