The secret conversation between Qin Wanwan and Liao Haohai did not last long.
Just when Qin Xiangxiang felt a little hesitantly that it would not be good for these two people to be together for a long time, Liao Haohai came out.
His face was a bit ugly, but he probably had good upbringing and said: "Mrs. Qin, Liao has taken leave."
"Liao Pingshi, please stay and have a meal." Qin Xiangxiang really wanted to persuade him to stay. After all, he owed Liao Haohai so much money, if he could pay for it with food money, it would be a meal.
"Ms. Qin, you're welcome." Liao Haohai said politely, looking a little anxious, as if he had to do something in a hurry.
Qin Xiangxiang said: "Since Liao Pingshi doesn't want to stay for dinner, I just made some snacks. Let Liao Pingshi take them and eat them on the way. I also ask Liao Pingshi to accept them, otherwise I won't have any snacks in the future." I have the face to meet Liao to comment on things."
Liao Haohai had no choice but to accept the small and exquisite food box: "Ms. Qin, farewell."
Qin Xiangxiang smiled and said, "You must remember to eat it."
Qin Xiangxiang sent Liao Haohai away and returned to the room to see Qin Wanwan.
"Liao Pingshi is gone." She told Qin Wanwan.
"Yes." Qin Wanwan's expression was very calm, and there was no trace of any argument with Liao Haohai on her face. Thinking about it, if she pressed Qin Wanwan, Qin Wanwan would not tell her.
"Then I'll go get busy." Qin Xiangxiang said.
"Wait a minute. Did you bring Dad's book with you?"
"It's in the cages on the wall." Qin Xiangxiang said.
Qin Wanwan glanced at the cages piled on the wall, and then quickly looked at Qin Xiangxiang: "When you have free time, you'd better read more books. If there are words you don't know, you can ask Hongxiu Tianxiang to teach you."
Qin Xiangxiang almost choked in his throat.
He just held it back and said, "Okay."
"Don't be angry, and don't think I'm verbose, and don't think it's hard enough to earn money by running a foot shop, and you still have to find time to read and learn. It's always good to read more books." Qin Wanwan said straightforwardly.
"Second Lady is right." Qin Xiangxiang refused to argue with her and turned to leave.
Opening a foot shop is not hard, but making money is hard.
"Wait." Qin Wanwan called her again.
"Can you prepare a big bathtub? There are also rose petals and incense. I want to take a thorough bath. Also, send Hongxiu to Yunshang Tower to buy me some new clothes. She has good eyesight."
Qin Xiangxiang looked at her: "What exactly do you want to do?"
"I can't get used to wearing your clothes. My skin is too tender, and these fabrics hurt me." Qin Wanwan spoke sincerely.
Qin Xiangxiang endured it again and again: "Okay. Is there anything else?"
"No more." Qin Wanwan sat back on the chair with an elegant posture, "No matter how much I ask for, you can't do it."
Qin Xiangxiang took another breath.
"Okay, okay, I'll do it for you."
Mrs. Wang has been extremely excited since Qin Wanwan came back. She walked around in a hurry and rushed to finish all the chores in the kitchen.
Seeing Qin Xiangxiang return to the kitchen, Mrs. Wang stepped forward with a happy face and asked her: "Madam, can I make some chicken soup for the second lady?"
Qin Xiangxiang said: "Mother Wang, the second lady sent you to buy a big bathtub, rose petals, and incense. Go and buy it. Hong Xiu, go to Yunshang Tower and buy some new clothes for the second lady. Here, here’s the banknote.”
Mrs. Wang's expression was one of joy, while Hongxiu was a little shocked.
The second wife is too ignorant! Not only did you destroy the Qin family's property before, but now you want to search for the eldest lady's money? ! Is it easy for a big lady? Not only did she have to support her foot shop, but she was almost thrown into jail and caused an unreasonable disaster. The second lady is not seeking medical treatment after being released from prison. She is clearly trying to kill the eldest lady after being released from prison!
Hongxiu's psychological activities were clearly displayed on her face. Qin Xiangxiang pretended that he couldn't see it and urged them: "Go quickly, buy it back early, we have to prepare for dinner."
Although it was unsatisfactory in other aspects, the business of the foot shop was still very prosperous. Now every time she passes by the foot shop in front of her, she can see the lady in the shop glaring at her fiercely.
Of course Qin Xiangxiang responded with a sweet smile.
After Mrs. Wang received the banknote, she was naturally eager to go out and buy the best and largest bathtub for the second lady. She took a closer look at the banknote. Oh, the lady is really willing to give up the banknote of one hundred coins! Mrs. Wang thought to herself, after all, they are biological sisters, and the eldest lady still loves the second lady.
Hongxiu was very reluctant. The lady had never worn Yunshanglou's clothes. The few good clothes I had before had holes in the sleeves. The eldest lady also said that just make up for it.
Mrs. Wang didn't care about this and went out happily.
But Hongxiu went out with her heart full of thoughts.
Just when Qin Xiangxiang rolled up his sleeves and started preparing for dinner, Ma Sizhi went home earlier than usual.
He bought a lot of candy from the salesman. The two children are in poor health and often take medicine. It is inevitable to use caramel to coax them.
As soon as he entered the door, the fourth aunt smiled at him: "Ma Sizhi is back."
Grandma was still mending clothes in the house. Two children came up to meet her and shouted happily: "Dad!"
Everything is business as usual, nothing different.
Ma Sizhi took out the oil paper package of the caramel and said with a smile: "You can only eat a small piece at a time."
Ah Min spoke quickly: "Dad, we have lots and lots of candies!"
Did grandma buy a lot of candy? Ma Sizhi was about to ask, but he heard the fourth aunt smile and say: "Today, a young lady named Qin sent a lot of malt candies and Hu cakes..."
Ma Sizhi's expression immediately changed: "You guys should eat it!"
The fourth aunt had never seen Ma Sizhi's face look so terrifying, and she immediately said: "No, aunt is keeping it, waiting for you to come back..."
"Where are all those things?"
Ma Sizhi strode into the door and saw his mother still quietly sewing clothes. There was a familiar-looking food box next to it, as well as a bunch of large and small bags.
"Fourth Aunt, please take the children to the alley to play for a while." Mrs. Ma said.
After the children went out, Mrs. Ma stopped what she was doing and looked at Ma Sizhi: "What on earth is going on?"
Ma SiZhi walked up to the food box and hurriedly opened it, only to see the familiar plate of Hu Biscuits inside. Suddenly his heart jumped into his throat again: "Have you touched these Hu Biscuits?"
Mrs. Ma said: "No. There are also those candy candies. The children wanted to eat them, but I didn't give them to them."
Ma Sizhi breathed a sigh of relief, it was fine that he didn't eat.
He took the things and was about to throw them out, but Mrs. Ma stopped him: "Son, tell me the truth. What bad things have you done? You can't even eat the things Mrs. Qin sent you."
She asked her fourth aunt, and according to her description, the lady surnamed Qin who sent the things should be the eldest lady of the Qin family. Although she has no fate with Mrs. Qin, she still thought Mrs. Qin was quite nice the last time she gave snacks to the children.
Ma Si straightened his eyes and said, "Mrs. Qin's family is in decline now. It must have cost a lot of money to buy these things. I can't accept her things."
"Son." Mrs. Ma sighed, "You can accept that money, but why can't you accept it when Mrs. Qin bought some ordinary food? Tell me the truth, what is going on? You Are you feeling guilty?"
A wise child is better than his mother.
Seeing Ma Si straighten his lips and say nothing, Mrs. Ma became furious, her face changed, she grabbed the needle and thread from the basket and threw it towards her son: "If you can't ask for orders from the people, what's the use of being an official!"
