Chapter 127 We Were Not of One Mind



The eldest daughter-in-law, Sun Xiulian, followed up with a sickly voice: "That's right, what a good opportunity to go to the city, but you ruined it yourself, Mom."

Wang Guilan followed up, "Schools are all government-owned. Mom, you rely on the government for your livelihood, and if you don't take it easy, how can they tolerate you?"

Qu Caisheng inquired, "Mom, how much money have you saved in the past two months since you went to the county town?"

When money was mentioned, Qu Aiguo and Qu Aijun pricked up their ears.

Even Qu Huihui and Qu Chengcheng looked over.

Qu Aiguo spoke first: "Grandma, Hongmei and I are getting married soon. Her family hasn't collected the required betrothal gifts yet. Can you help me?"

Old Mrs. Qu cried all the way home from the county town and was in an extremely bad mood.

It would be fine if my sons, daughters-in-law and grandchildren didn’t comfort me.

Are you also starting to calculate the few dozen dollars you earned from collecting waste paper and selling it?

She was so angry that she was stunned for a moment, then she slammed the table and yelled, "Get out, get out, all of you get out."

"You are a bunch of heartless people, get out of here—"

Qu Caisheng stood up with an unhappy look on his face. "Mom, if you don't want to give it to me, just say so. Why are you so angry?"

"Back then, you insisted on leaving all your family affairs behind and going to the county town to take care of Yingying. We didn't stop you, did we?"

"Yingying is a smart girl, but her own grandparents don't want her. How can she be a good person?"

"You insisted on raising her, and now it's like this, isn't it all your own fault?"

The words "you asked for it" hit Old Lady Qu so hard that she almost collapsed.

"Get out! Get out of here!"

She was so angry that she picked up the broom and drove everyone at the table out.

Only Old Man Qu was left sitting there. He sighed deeply, picked up his pipe and knocked it heavily on the table leg twice.

Then he spoke: "Now that you're back, don't be sad anymore."

"The pigs, chickens and ducks at home are all counting on you to feed them."

"In the two months since you left, my place has been a complete mess. I can't even have a hot meal."

"Don't even think about Yingying. She's not from our family."

"She has Yao family blood in her veins! When she grows up and becomes successful, she will be a source of honor to the Yao family."

"It has little to do with us."

"No matter how close you are to her now, or how much effort you put into raising her, what's the point? Your own daughter will end up in someone else's family once she gets married, not to mention your granddaughter."

"We were never of the same mind."

"It's okay now. You should focus more on your family."

"Let's leave Yingying like this. If she needs us in the future, we'll give her something to eat."

"Who told us to give her the surname Qu? It's only right that we give her food."

"Don't think about anything else."

"That girl is smart, but now it seems her intelligence is not in the right direction."

"There's no telling what he'll achieve in the future!"

As Mrs. Qu listened to her husband's words, she gradually calmed down.

I began to carefully recall every detail of Qu Yingying's life from childhood to adulthood, and soon remembered: "There's something I almost forgot."

"That kid from the Li family used to be so nice to Yingying, but now he hasn't come to see Yingying for a long time."

"Did you see that Yingying had a bad temper a long time ago?"

Old Man Qu: "That's hard to say."

Mrs. Qu: "And about the last poisoning incident, do you also think Yingying really wanted to poison Manman?"

Old Man Qu took a sullen puff of his pipe before answering, "That's obvious. Yingying is so smart, how could she not know that rat poison can kill people?"

"Did Manman really almost get poisoned to death by her?"

Only then did Old Lady Qu realize why Qu Songsheng was so angry that day.

She immediately became annoyed: "I am sorry to the Songsheng family and to Manman!"

Old Man Qu: "What's the point of regretting now? It's all in the past. Family scandals should not be mentioned if possible."

Old Lady Qu didn't understand: "But why did she poison Manman?"

Old Man Qu had already thought about the reason for this: "Maybe she thought that if Manman died, she could become Songsheng's daughter."

"This?" Old Lady Qu understood: "It's my fault again."

"It was me who originally wanted to give Yingying to Songsheng and his wife."

"Yingying must be jealous of Manman because she has both a father and a mother. That's why she wants to poison Manman and become Songsheng's daughter."

Old Man Qu listened impatiently: "I've already said that it was a family scandal, it's all in the past, don't mention it again."

What he is more concerned about now is: "Song Sheng has alienated his family. Let's see how to win him back in the future."

"I, I accompanied Yingying to the county town to look for Song Sheng, but I didn't see him..." Mrs. Qu told the story of her trip to the county town that day and asked Old Man Qu: "Should I go look for Song Sheng again?"

Old Man Qu understood: "They're all avoiding you, so why are you still going? Another wasted trip?"

"Let's wait a little longer. Song Sheng is a filial man. If we wait a little longer, he and his wife will be more calm."

"Let's find a good opportunity and go together. Let's have a good talk with Song Sheng about how we've raised him over the years. He'll understand..."

When the old couple of the Qu family were planning to win back their son.

Qu Songsheng and his family are celebrating the grand opening of the third Mai Kenmai franchise store in the provincial capital.

The last time Mai Ken Mai was reported by a daily newspaper, it became extremely popular.

In just over two months, two franchise stores were opened.

The second franchise store was opened in the city, and the third one was opened directly in the provincial capital.

After being selected through a rigorous franchise process, these two franchisees are both very powerful businesses.

Especially this store in the provincial capital, which is located next to several universities.
