"You don’t need to worry about this; Yanyan must have her reasons for doing so."
Rong Wenming didn’t mind the issue. "Besides, would ordinary neighbors give such an expensive gift? The Qin Family’s status is not ordinary, and even for the smallest things, we need to be more thoughtful and vigilant."
Why would people we don’t even know give away such valuable things for no good reason?
Madam Rong didn’t speak anymore, because her husband made a good point.
It would be a problem if she had done sothing unintentionally.
Anyway, her mind wasn’t as sharp as her daughter’s, so whatever her daughter decided to do must be right.
"Alright, if you’re still worried, since you can’t sleep anyway, just sit here for a while, and you can ask your son-in-law and daughter about it when they co back."
"Okay." Madam Rong nodded her head, but she truly regretted her slow reaction. "Why didn’t I just return it to them at the ti? Wouldn’t that have prevented this issue?"
Seeing her bla herself, Rong Wenming comforted her with a few words, "You couldn’t have thought of that. Now, don’t worry about it. Yanyan and Qin will handle it."
The police station nearby was very close, and Rong Yan and Qin Ye arrived quickly.
Although most of the officers had already finished their shifts at this hour, so were still on duty.
When the duty officer saw a man and a woman enter, he was surprised and quickly stepped forward to inquire, "What can I do for you two comrades?"
"Hello, the thing is, our neighbor gave us this planter, but my mother didn’t realize it at the ti and the person left. When we tried to return it, there was no one next door."
The duty officer was puzzled by their words. It was just a planter; couldn’t they simply return it tomorrow?
Why bring it to the police station?
"...Is there a problem with this planter?"
He still asked the question.
Rong Yan nodded, "Of course there is a problem. First, this is a very valuable Five-needle Pine, worth no less than five hundred on the market."
Hearing this, the duty officer gasped. Wasn’t that almost half a year’s wages for him?
For him, it was indeed very expensive.
"You just ntioned first, so what’s the second problem?"
"Second, there’s an issue with the planter itself; there’s sothing buried in the soil."
The duty officer’s eyes suddenly sharpened a bit, "What’s buried in there?"
Rong Yan didn’t want to dig it out herself, she asked Qin Ye to do it.
"Qin Ye, dig in from this side; there should be sothing buried at the bottom."
Then she looked up at the duty officer, "Comrade, maybe you should call soone else out. Otherwise, what if they deny everything tomorrow? Make sure you watch closely; we haven’t touched the dirt inside at all."
Duty officer: ...
Your self-protection is quite strong.
"Alright, follow ."
Of course, he wasn’t the only one on duty at the entire station.
He led the man and woman to the office.
"Xiao Wang, what’s the matter?" asked Captain Qi Yan, the duty leader.
"Captain Qi, these two brought sothing in, saying there’s a problem with it."
After hearing Xiao Wang’s words, Captain Qi’s gaze fell on the two behind him, and he was sowhat surprised to see who it was. "Qin Ye?"
Qin Ye looked at him, "You know ?"
Captain Qi coughed lightly, "I know you; I also live in the housing complex." He ant to say he was friends and brothers with Qin Zhen.
But he swallowed those words and asked instead, "What happened?"
Weren’t these two busy moving into their new ho and getting married today? Instead of enjoying their wedding night, they ran to the police station?
Qin Ye then repeated everything his wife had just told him.
Captain Qi was slightly astounded.
Then, with a serious expression, he stood up, approached the two, and his gaze landed on the planter.
Others might not recognize its value, but having grown up in the housing complex, Captain Qi could tell at a glance the planter was worth at least five hundred.
No other reason but because his old man had ntioned it before, saying it was too expensive to buy.
"You say this was given to you by your neighbor? Who lives next door? Also, there’s sothing hidden in the soil?"
Rong Yan: "I don’t know who lives next door, but there definitely is sothing in the soil. You can dig it out and see."
Suddenly, Qin Ye rembered sothing, "That woman might have the last na Ming..."
As for her first na, he hadn’t paid much attention at the ti, so he didn’t rember.
At his words, Rong Yan looked over, "You know her?"
Afraid of any misunderstanding by his wife, Qin Ye hurriedly explained, "When I ca to clean the courtyard last ti, this woman appeared once. She seed to have given her own na, but I didn’t pay attention... It must have been her my mother ntioned tonight."
"I didn’t take the matter to heart at all, so I didn’t ntion it to you."
"Wife, I didn’t an to hide it from you."
If it hadn’t been for tonight’s incident, he wouldn’t have even rembered.
Rong Yan looked at his anxious expression, raised her eyebrows, and smiled slightly, "If you didn’t rember, you didn’t rember. I didn’t say anything."
Captain Qi beside them: ...
Tsk, Qin Zhen’s cousin here seems to be really afraid of his wife! Just like Qin Zhen, blood-related... all scared of their wives.
"I will investigate who this person is, but first, let’s see what’s hidden in the soil." Ming... If he’s not mistaken, could it be that crazy woman from the Ming Family?
It seed very likely.
But even if that crazy woman didn’t get along with Qin Zhen, why bother his cousin who had just returned?
Could it be she couldn’t retaliate against Qin Zhen, so she extended her hand towards Qin Zhen’s cousin?
Rong Yan looked at him, then nodded her head.
"Go ahead and dig."
This ti, she didn’t ask Qin Ye to do it.
Captain Qi turned to Xiao Wang, "Go find a tool you can dig with."
Xiao Wang imdiately responded and went out.
At this mont, Captain Qi looked up at the two, "How do you know there’s sothing in the soil? Who discovered it?"
", I’m trained in dical arts, I’m sowhat sensitive to certain dicinal herbs, and although the sll is faint here, I can still detect it."
Captain Qi: ...
Detected by sll? Isn’t that nose even better than a dog’s?
Before he could ask what it was, Xiao Wang returned.
"Will this do?"
A small trowel.
"Yes." Captain Qi took the trowel and then began gingerly to dig out the soil.
Five minutes later, sothing appeared at the bottom of the pot.
Captain Qi took it out and looked closely, "What is this?"
Rong Yan didn’t co closer but her eyes were carefully discerning.
After a mont, she spoke up, "This is a dicinal branch that’s been soaked in a dicated solution. If I’m not mistaken, this thing is quite potent, and exposure to it for three months could cause infertility."
Her statent shocked everyone present.
Especially Qin Ye, who quickly pulled his wife back.
"Wife, step back a bit."
When they had arrived at the police station, his wife had carried the planter all the way; that shouldn’t be a problem, right?
