Chapter 108 Obstructed

In that instant, Xiao Caidie's fate had already changed.

What was once full of obstacles has become bright.

"She is the only child I carried for ten months and risked my life to give birth to. As her mother, I will naturally do everything I can to protect her."

Madam Chu looked at Qin Jin'an gently and said, "She is so intelligent that she understands what her daughter cannot perceive."

Chu brought Qin Jin'an back to the main hall. Qin immediately came forward, took Qin Jin'an's hand, and only felt relieved after confirming that her daughter was alright.

Madam Chu smiled slightly at Madam Qin and said, "Madam Qin is blessed to have such a good daughter. Good days are yet to come."

Madam Qin smiled faintly: "Thank you for your praise, Madam."

She didn't ask for wealth or fame; she only wanted her daughter to be safe and healthy.

"It's getting late, we should go home now, so we won't bother you any longer."

Qin Shi, holding Qin Jin'an's hand, said to Chu Shi.

Qin Tianhai also got up and went to their side.

Madam Chu nodded: "Alright, I'll see you out."

Chu escorted Qin Tianhai and the other two to the gate of the mansion, and only returned to the mansion after watching them leave.

With a serious expression, she immediately went to her study to start writing a letter. Her daughter had lost the will to change herself, and she, as her mother, could not do nothing.

Since her daughter didn't even have the courage to go and question her, she had no choice but to send Jiang Xun to Liuzhou City.

——

On the way home, Qin Jin'an fell fast asleep in Qin Shi's arms.

She woke up when she got home and muttered to Qin Shi, "Mother is too thin. She should gain some weight."

Every night she would dream of the god of misfortune. Every day she would lie on her plump, white belly, leaning against Qin Shi, and she felt that her mother was too thin, and her belly was not soft enough...

"Okay, Mother, eat more from now on."

Madam Qin smiled slightly; her daughter cared about her, and she felt a sweet warmth in her heart.

Qin Jin'an smiled and ran to see Bai Diandian.

She has to learn to read in the afternoon, and she's very troubled by it.

Every time Qin saw Qin Jin'an holding his face and muttering to himself, she felt like laughing.

She felt full of energy.

I had dinner.

Qin said to Qin Tianhai, "Father, I'm preparing to set up a workshop."

After overcoming this difficulty, her business became more stable. With the meat jerky, she could support the construction of a workshop, which would allow her to continue to develop.

She wanted to try expanding beyond what she could consume within Liuzhou City.

Dried meat and noodle fish are great business opportunities. This is Qin's first time doing business, but she also understands that a good business opportunity is rare.

“Now that you’ve made your decision, go to the village chief’s house and buy all the land next to your house to expand your property.”

Qin Tianhai looked at Qin Shi and knew that Qin Shi's mind was made up and that this difficult hurdle had been overcome.

"Little sister is really amazing."

Qin Yulin was filled with envy and admiration, but his own mind wasn't quite as sharp.

"You're amazing too, you're very strong and you eat a lot."

Zhao looked at Qin Yulin with a smile, her eyes filled with adoring love.

Qin Yulin's face flushed. Was this a good point?

I feel a little embarrassed, but I'm also very happy. My wife is right!

Qin Tianhai and Zhang were both speechless; perhaps this is a case of beauty being in the eye of the beholder.

After tidying up, Qin Shi and Qin Tianhai went out together.

The village head is also a member of the Qin family, and shares the same generation as Qin Tianhai. His name is Qin Tianfa. Both of his sons are married with children, and his grandson is eight or nine years old.

"Hai Zidi, Nie Nu, what brings you here?"

Qin Tianfa was resting in the courtyard when he saw Qin Shi and Qin Tianhai and got up to greet them with a smile.

"Has Second Brother eaten yet?"

Qin Tianhai asked with a smile.

Qin Tianfa nodded: "Yes, yes, have you eaten?"

"We ate it too."

Qin Tianhai replied politely.

"Come on, let's go inside and talk. Old woman, brew a pot of tea."

Qin Tianfa invited the two into the house while calling out to the kitchen.

Qin Tianfa's wife, Wu, responded.

Once seated in the main hall, Qin Tianhai immediately spoke up: "Second brother, as you know, my Yuwan has started a business. She wants to buy a piece of land to build a workshop so that people in the village can work there. Last time she bought land to build a house, several plots of land along the edge were vacant. We want to buy them to build a workshop."

After Qin Tianhai finished speaking, Qin Tianfa did not speak immediately, but remained silent.

Qin Tianhai sensed something was amiss.

After a while, Qin Tianhai spoke up: "Brother Hai, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't do anything about it... The Su family anticipated that my niece would take this step and had already blocked all avenues. If I could help, I wouldn't make things difficult for you. We are of the same clan, but my family also needs to make a living. Please understand, Brother Hai and my niece Yuwan."

Qin Tianfa looked at Qin Shi with some guilt. Qin Shi was a capable woman, but unfortunately, she had no way to make a living in Liuzhou City.

As long as Su Chang'an remains the Marquis of Anping, the Qin family will never have a chance to rise again.

After Qin Tianfa finished speaking, Qin Tianhai and the Qin family understood everything.

Qin Tianhai didn't ask any more questions or say anything. He and Qin Shi stood up, cupped their hands and said, "Thank you, Second Brother. My daughter and I won't disturb you any longer. It's getting late, so we should go home and rest."

Qin Tian got up to see him off, wanting to say something but feeling powerless to say anything.

After seeing Qin Tianhai and his daughter off, Madam Wu sighed behind Qin Tianfa and said, "The Su family is really despicable. I wonder what will happen to them in the future."

Qin Tian sighed, "I can only hope that the Su family will fall from power soon."

But Su Chang'an is already the Marquis of Anping, and he has even gone to the capital to marry a noble lady. With the support of his wife's family, it seems unlikely that he will fall from power.

Qin Tianhai and Qin Shi walked for a while.

Qin said, "Father, I will not give up."

Qin Tianhai said, "Yes, think about it carefully later, and we'll find a way."

Unable to buy land, unable to build workshops, their business development was hampered.

When they got home, the father and daughter didn't mention the matter, but they both knew things hadn't gone well.

Qin Shi laid Qin Jin'an down to sleep, and Qin Jin'an reached out to smooth Qin Shi's brow.

Madam Qin smiled, patted Qin Jin'an gently, and said, "Sleep well, my sweetie."

Even with countless difficulties, she will not be afraid.

Someone deliberately ate the medicine and then asked her for money for medical treatment. She knew this was all a trick by the Su family, and she would compensate them as she was supposed to.

She is like a weed that can never be killed, always growing tenaciously.

Qin Jin'an drifted off to sleep.

In his dream, Qi Yuanyou was already very familiar with her.

"Fish Baby, do you want to lie down?"

Seeing Qin Jin'an looking worried, Qi Yuanyou took the initiative to ask, even skipping the chase game.

Qin Jin'an nodded.

"Yuanyuan, what can I do to stop my family from worrying? There's something I really need to do."

Qin Jin'an lay on Qi Yuanyou's stomach and asked him a question.

“Those who truly care about you will always worry about you and think about you, but once you make a decision, they will believe in you.” Qi Yuanyou answered, gently moving Qin Jinan’s head to a more comfortable position.
