Qin Hanshu said, "Thank you, I was just looking for him."

Liao Yujie: "I smelled alcohol on him. You gave such a young child alcohol?"

"No." Qin Hanshu picked up Zhou Sheng and sniffed him; sure enough, he smelled of alcohol.

Moreover, Zhou Sheng's face was flushed, and her eyes were somewhat unfocused.

Qin Hanshu was startled. "You've been drinking?"

Zhou Sheng nodded.

Qin Hanshu retorted, "Who told you to drink it?!"

Zhou Sheng blinked. "I'll stay here."

Qin Hanshu was so angry that she slapped his bottom twice. "Nonsense! Kids aren't allowed to drink!"

The spanking didn't hurt much at all. In the past, Zhou Sheng would always admit his mistakes with a smile and tell his mother not to be angry. But today, he burst into tears.

Struggling to get down, she ran towards her grandparents, complaining as she ran, "My mom's going to beat me to death—"

Qin Hanshu: "......"

He had only been back in his hometown for half a day when he learned that he had gained two more people who would unconditionally protect him.

When Zhou Chang'an and Zhao Chunmiao heard about it, they didn't think it was a big deal.

"This kid is definitely Wei Guang's son. When Wei Guang was a kid, he secretly drank alcohol and got drunk, riding a pig and overturning the table. This kid then rode a donkey, hahahahaha..."

The other relatives also laughed and took it as a joke.

Zhao Chunmiao still cherished and protected the child, hugging him tightly whenever Qin Hanshu came close.

Seeing this, Qin Hanshu decided not to continue lecturing Zhou Sheng. Fortunately, he was only staying at his hometown for a few days; if this continued, Zhou Sheng would definitely be spoiled rotten.

Turning her head, Liao Yujie was still eagerly waiting for Qin Hanshu.

Qin Hanshu asked, "What do you want?"

"Hehe... I need your help..."

Liao Yujie's mother-in-law passed away three years ago. Now she and Qi Gangyong are raising their daughter alone. Qi Gangyong listens to her in everything, but he is lazy and his income is always just enough to keep him from starving.

Liao Yujie was lazy; the couple didn't do any work and spent all their time thinking about other ways to make money.

Ideally, it would be the kind where you can count money while lying down.

After thinking it over and over, Qi Gangyong heard from somewhere that someone in the neighboring commune had dug a fishpond to raise fish, made a fortune selling the fish, and become a millionaire!

Qi Gangyong thought to himself, "Our village is next to the river, so it's easy to get water. Wouldn't it be convenient to dig a fishpond? If we raise fish, we can just put the fry in, and with water and food, they'll grow up on their own, right?"

Isn't this just making money while lying down?!

They don't eat fish here because there aren't many fish. If they could raise fish, they wouldn't have to worry about selling them.

And because they're so rare, they're not cheap!

Let's do it!

Qi Gangyong and Liao Yujie rummaged through the belongings left by Old Mrs. Qi and actually managed to scrape together the initial capital.

The only difference is that the village's Party Secretary now is the same accountant who used to be; if you don't give him gifts, they won't let you dig fish ponds.

The couple didn't want to waste their money, so they decided to go find Zhou Chang'an.

Although Zhou Chang'an has retired, his prestige remains, and he has two promising sons. As long as he speaks up, the man surnamed Niu will definitely give him face.

Liao Yujie had initially planned to approach Zhou Chang'an directly, but the couple were unsure of themselves. They had no connection with Zhou Chang'an and were unsure if their request would be effective, and they also didn't want to offer gifts.

Just in time, Qin Hanshu came back. It's like a pillow for someone who's sleepy!

Qin Hanshu's expression was somewhat complicated after hearing Liao Yujie's words.

She had once heard a saying: laziness is the primary productive force.

Now it seems that there's some truth to that.

Qin Hanshu said, "Okay, I'll put in a good word for you."

Seeing Qin Hanshu agree so readily, Liao Yujie was overjoyed: "I knew you were a nice person! Thanks a lot!"

Qin Hanshu smiled and said, "Raising fish is a pretty good option, but there's no such thing as money that you can earn lying down. There are a lot of tricks to raising fish, so you'd better be diligent and pay more attention to it to avoid losing money."

Liao Yujie got the job done and was so happy that she didn't know whether she had listened to Qin Hanshu's words.

Qin Hanshu stopped interfering.
