Chapter 88 Qi Xiufeng that evening…

That evening, Qi Xiufeng went to Qin Ren's house with Qin Ren and Liu Qingyue.

She lived on the third floor with Fu Chunhua; the apartment on the third floor had three bedrooms.

Before Qi Xiufeng arrived, Fu Chunhua had one room, Liu Qingyue and Susu had one room, and there was one room that was still empty.

Now that Qi Xiufeng has arrived, Liu Qingyue has decided to gradually let Susu sleep in a room by herself.

Once Susu is completely independent, Liu Qingyue will be free to do his own thing.

Qi Xiufeng's daughter-in-law found out the next day that Qi Xiufeng had gone to Qin Ren's house to work as a nanny.

The other party made a huge scene at home again. She felt that Qi Xiufeng was doing it on purpose. She had wanted to go to Qin Ren's house for a long time, which was why she caused that scene yesterday.

She had never seen such a bad mother-in-law. Her own grandson had no one to take care of him, so she went to take care of other people's children.

That's so cruel and vicious.

Qin Ren isn't her biological son, so she doesn't know why she treats him so well.

She helps him take care of his children, but now that she's old, he can't possibly support her in her old age.

Because of this, she argued with her husband and smashed things, which infuriated the downstairs neighbors.

And that wasn't the end of it. For the next few days, she went downstairs every day to badmouth her mother-in-law to other people.

Most of her daughters-in-law agreed with her idea, and some would try to persuade her.

"You don't need to be angry. She earns 20,000 yuan a month, and that money will definitely go to your husband in the future. You might as well let her go to work, so that she can help support the family. Since you just want your mother to come and help you take care of the child, you can ask her for the 5,000 yuan then."

Upon hearing someone say that, the daughter-in-law suddenly stopped making a fuss.

Yes, it just so happens that neither she nor her husband could afford five thousand yuan. Originally, it should have been the mother-in-law who took care of the grandson.

Now that the mother-in-law is unwilling to help them take care of the children, they have no choice but to pay someone to come and help, and of course, the mother-in-law has to pay for it.

And what they said is very true, my mother-in-law and father-in-law are getting old and don't have many years left to live.

Now that she can earn more money, won't all the money end up going to her man anyway?

Qi Xiufeng actually has a daughter, who is currently working in another city.

Qi Xiufeng knew her daughter-in-law disliked her, and that her son shared a bed with her. She knew her daughter-in-law wouldn't take care of her in her old age; she would have to rely on her daughter for support.

So now that she's started working, she's thinking of giving most of her money to her daughter.

Of course, she didn't dare tell anyone about this idea.

In rural areas and small towns, most people still believe in giving all their family assets to their sons.

Qi Xiufeng witnessed her daughter-in-law's disgust for her, and in addition, her daughter had always treated her very well.

Now, their daughter has bought pension insurance for her and her husband and sends them money from time to time, which is much better than their son who always asks them for money.

It's not really her son's fault for being unfilial; it's mainly due to the environment of this small place.

I'm used to it here, so I give all the good things to my son.

As a son, you don't need to fight or grab to get a lot of resources.

The boys here get used to this kind of life and slowly forget to be grateful to their parents.

Of course, while there are such ungrateful people, there are also many filial children.

Qi Xiufeng worked for Qin Ren for a week, and life there was much more comfortable than at her son's place.

Because Qin Ren trusted her a lot, he even gave her half of her salary in advance, worried that she wouldn't have enough money and would have trouble living in the city.

Liu Qingyue is a gentle and kind person. She felt very relaxed after getting to know them and didn't have to live by constantly having to consider other people's feelings.

When Qi Xiufeng was resting, she went back to her hometown and told her daughter about this.

Her daughter is very supportive of her career, and even praised her for earning more than her own salary, saying that she will be the head of their family from now on.

Qi Xiufeng was very happy, and she looked much more energetic.

She returned this time in Liu Qingyue's car.

Liu Qingyue has now obtained her driver's license, but Qin Ren is still worried about her driving alone, so he asked her to hire a professional driver.

Qi Xiufeng stayed in her hometown for a day, and then took Liu Qingyue's car back to the county town.

On their way, the two met their daughter-in-law, who was returning home from the store.

As soon as her daughter-in-law saw her sitting in the luxury car, she impulsively ran in front of the car and blocked it.

Qi Xiufeng was startled, and her heart skipped a beat.

She gave Liu Qingyue an awkward smile, then wanted to get out of the car and chat with her daughter-in-law.

Liu Qingyue didn't let her get out of the car. Instead, she looked at the woman outside the car with an amused expression and said, "What are you doing? We have no grudge against each other. Why are you stopping my car?"

The daughter-in-law pointed to Qi Xiufeng in the back seat of the car and said, "She is my mother-in-law. I need to talk to her. Tell her to get out of the car quickly."

Liu Qingyue: "I'm sorry, she is my employee now, and she is currently on duty and cannot leave with you."

"What you're doing is illegal. Where can't you see your family while you're working?"

"Family? You chased after me so aggressively, I thought you were an enemy!"

After Liu Qingyue finished speaking, she smiled and raised her hand to signal the driver to drive away.

If she dares to continue blocking his car, it would constitute the crime of deliberately provoking trouble, and he wouldn't mind taking her to the police station.

Because Liu Qingyue has a very imposing presence and is also a wealthy young master.

The daughter-in-law, who was only fierce at home, ultimately didn't dare to continue stopping them.

Watching Liu Qingyue's car drive away, she couldn't help but get angry again and started making phone calls.

The only person she can vent her anger on now is her husband.

After returning home, Liu Qingyue went to check on Su Su, and then went downstairs alone.

Qin Ren went back to ancient times a few days ago, so he thought he would go back and visit today as well.

He owns many shops in the ancient world, and it's time for him to bring some new goods back with him.

When it came to bringing back the goods, Liu Qingyue couldn't help but sigh.

This passage is only for him, Qin Ren, and Su Su.

Qin Ren was usually busy, so he had to handle the delivery himself.

At first, it was fine because he didn't need to transport much cargo, and he could finish transporting it in two or three trips.

But things are different now. As he opens more and more shops and his business grows bigger and bigger, he needs to transport more goods.

For example, this time, he is going to transport twenty boxes of goods back.

Looking at all those boxes, Liu Qingyue could only sigh as she carried them.

He has a small cart specifically for hauling goods. The cart can hold two boxes, and it can only carry one box at a time.

He needs to transport twenty boxes there, so he'll have to make ten trips.

Liu Qingyue had just finished transporting the first two boxes when she ran into Qin Ren, who was going home to rest.

Qin Ren saw him pouting as he pulled things over, and he knew that the man was unhappy because he had to move a lot of things.

Qin Ren smiled and stepped forward, saying, "I'll help you move it. You wait here for me."

"No, you came back to rest, right? These things aren't heavy, I just find it troublesome to travel back and forth."

"It's okay, I'm not tired, and I'm not afraid of trouble."

As Qin Ren said this, he unloaded the things from the small cart and then pulled Liu Qingyue's cart back.

Seeing this, Liu Qingyue quickly followed him, "I'll go with you, and we can take turns."

Qin Ren wanted to say that such weight was like a joke to him.

Later, when Qin Ren heard Liu Qingyue say that he also wanted to be strong, he didn't refuse to let him work.

Qin Ren is an advocate of self-reliance and self-improvement. In his view, whether it is a man, a woman, or a young man, being strong is not a bad thing.

Even if you have a loving husband and a doting son, you can't just be a pretty face.

Because in one's life, it's impossible to be with other people every single moment.

If you become too useless, you will collapse before anyone else when problems arise.

Qin Ren loves Liu Qingyue very much, and he hopes that she will be alright no matter what happens to her in the future.

Even if he dies first, he can still live a healthy and happy life on his own.

When two people work together, chatting and laughing along the way, they won't feel bored.

Soon, all twenty boxes of goods were delivered by them.

Qin Ren put the things in the courtyard, and then a servant took them away.

Qin Ren returned to his room and asked Liu Qingyue, "Are you going back tonight?"

As Qin Ren said this, he reached out his hand towards Liu Qingyue.

Liu Qingyue originally wanted to go back, but then she saw the look in Qin Ren's eyes and felt very reluctant to leave.

He reached out and wrapped his arms around Qin Ren's neck, and Qin Ren picked him up in one go.

Now that Susu is in elementary school, the two of them can be considered an old married couple.

After not seeing each other for a long time, we hugged once in a while, and I didn't expect to feel so embarrassed.

Liu Qingyue smiled and buried her face in Qin Ren's chest, "How's things in the capital lately?"

Because he couldn't live with his mother and brother, he couldn't help but worry about them.

"They're doing well over there. My brother is smart and capable, and I heard he's about to be promoted again. My mother is in good health and has been helping my brother manage the household."

Qin Ren paused here, and Liu Qingyue noticed something was wrong, so she reached out and tapped his chin with her finger.

"Why did you stop talking? Where's Ke'er?"

"He... is still the same as always, stubbornly wanting to have children."

Ke'er now has two children.

One was a daughter, his eldest daughter with Liu Yuze.

The other child was a son, but not his child with Liu Yuze.

It was a child born to Liu Yuze and a concubine after Liu Yuze and Qi Shi discussed it.

Liu Yuze had children with his concubine not because he liked her.

He was worried about Ke'er's health and didn't want her to continue suffering from childbirth.

At the same time, he also knew that he and Ke'er were close relatives, and many children born from consanguineous marriages are unhealthy.

For example, their eldest daughter was born with some congenital deficiencies.

He believed his idea was good.

He had a child with his concubine, and then sent her far away.

The child was a son, and he was raised by Ke'er.

They won't tell the child that Ke'er isn't his biological father, so that it's no different from having a biological father.

But Ke'er was unwilling, and he felt very uncomfortable.

Even though Liu Yuze did everything for him, he was still unhappy when he saw that child.

He only wanted to have his own child, and only wanted a child with his cousin.

Qin Ren and Liu Qingyue had always known about these things.

Qi Shi wouldn't tell them anything, but Qin Ren's power had grown significantly over the years, and they knew everything that happened in the capital, even things within the palace.

Upon hearing this, Liu Qingyue sighed, "Forget it, let's not talk about them anymore. There's nothing we can do about it except worry."

He changed his mood and then asked Qin Ren with a smile, "Do you remember when I wanted to have another child?"

"Of course I remember."

"It's a good thing we didn't have any more. We can't even take care of one child. If we had a few more, I don't know how chaotic it would have become."

"Actually, one is enough. If Susu stays in the modern world, it doesn't matter if he is a girl."

Liu Qingyue disagreed, saying, "Your world isn't as good as I think."

"I used to think that girls over there had a good life, without so many restrictions. But after staying there for a while, I found that it's the same on both sides, just more hidden than it is here."

In ancient times, the preference for sons over daughters was open; in modern times, it's more about secretly favoring sons over daughters.

Modern people are doing the same thing, yet they still won't allow some girls to complain.

One saying is that in ancient times, people had three wives and four concubines.

Another thing is boxing.

Anyway, it's the same on both sides.

"It's a good thing I didn't give birth to a daughter, otherwise I would still be bullied. It's better to have a son, because a son can be raised as a boy and he won't have to suffer so much."

"By the way, how are the other children?"

He hadn't seen them for a long time, and now that it was getting late, it wasn't convenient for him to go see them.

“I haven’t really taken care of them much. The housekeeper said they’re all quite sensible.”

"Alright then, I'll take them out to play tomorrow. After all, they're still just kids, we can't be too harsh on them."

Qin Ren nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble you. You have to take care of everything at home. I'm such a useless husband."

"You know how good I am, that's good. You must treat me even better in the future, you can't let down such a good husband like me."

"Okay, I definitely won't, and I wouldn't dare to let you down."

Author's note: It's finished.

I like to write a lot of stories about supporting characters, and I also intersperse some of the main characters' daily lives. After thinking about it, I decided to put them in the bonus chapters.
