Chapter 229 Pregnancy Together
Qin Youmin was unsure of Xia Mi's attitude. He raised his hand again to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and smiled apologetically.
"So what does Boss Shen mean?"
Shen Zhihui thought for a moment and said, "This business competition has caused me considerable losses. In the short term, you may need to pick up the goods yourself for delivery."
"And the price?"
"The price will not increase. It will remain the same as before."
Shen Zhihui didn't go too far and stopped at the right point.
There is only one car. Now that we have received business from other cities, we will definitely give priority to those far away. Taking the waiting time into account, it will take a while for those within the city to get their turn.
"That's fine, it's fine. Doing business is not easy." Qin Youmin nodded to show his understanding.
This delivery fee is less than one-third of the price increase and is within an acceptable range.
Qin Youmin placed the order and left satisfied after signing the bill.
After seeing Qin Youmin off.
"Cheng Quan's store has raised prices so outrageously that some of the previous customers will surely return in a couple of days. Cheng Quan will see that you haven't collapsed, so the prices will probably return to normal."
Judging from the price hike this time, it is intuitively clear that Cheng Quan’s store is suffering losses no less than Shen Zhihui’s.
"He deserves it. He's asking for it." Chen Zhihui's mood suddenly turned sour when he mentioned Cheng Quan. "But with the orders from other cities, I guess this matter won't be hidden for long."
"Are you afraid that he will learn it again?" Xia Mi saw Chen Zhihui's worry.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to learn for long. If he doesn't have sufficient funds, he won't be able to persist for long. From this incident, everyone can see what kind of character he has."
Xia Mi almost said the word capital.
Relationships will eventually run out, not to mention money. In the business world, although everyone is profit-driven, character is still crucial.
Chen Zhihui did not haggle over small details, nor did he take advantage of the situation. He thought that he could earn enough goodwill from the old customers this time.
If someone like Cheng Quan appears again in the future, these people will not turn against him so easily.
Things were almost done, and Xia Mi prepared to go back.
Shen Zhihui also wanted to go to the pier to buy something for Zhang Zijie, so the two of them went together.
Cheng Quan stood at the door of the store, as if he had been waiting for them for a long time. He stood in front of them and said, "Boss Shen."
Seeing Cheng Quan's ugly expression, Xia Mi guessed that he probably saw Qin Youmin go to Shen Zhihui's store and now came to cause trouble.
"What's up?"
"I see your shop has been closed for more than half a month. I want to ask you, if you quit, can you sublease it to me? My warehouse is not as big as yours, and now I can't put my things in it."
These words are full of provocation.
Shen Zhihui was not annoyed, a smile bloomed on his face, and his tone was calm, "I'm sorry, my store and warehouse have no intention of subletting recently."
Cheng Quan was disappointed that he did not see any anger on Shen Zhihui's face.
"Okay, if you want to sublet the house in the future, please consider me first." Cheng Quan had a hypocritical smile on his face and then glanced at Xia Mi.
Shen Zhihui interrupted, "It's still early to wait for that day. But Boss Cheng, if you had told me earlier that you had the ability and strong financial resources, maybe I would have really let you work with me."
Cheng Quan's expression changed, and he felt inexplicably nervous about Shen Zhihui's confidence.
"Okay, if there's nothing else, we'll leave first. There's something else waiting for us." Chen Zhihui felt annoyed if he looked at Cheng Quan for another second.
Cheng Quan watched Chen Zhihui and Xia Mi leave, looking worried.
-
Suzhou.
A week later, Sangqi received a reply from Xia Mi. In the letter, Xia Mi mentioned that it was inconvenient for her to travel by car because she was pregnant, and she might not return to Suzhou during the Qingming Festival. Everything was still to be determined.
Zhang Xiaoqin pushed the door open and saw her husband's happy look.
"Did Xia Mi reply to your letter?"
Sanchi nodded, having just finished reading the letter, "How did you know?"
"Except when she wrote back to you, you can show this expression. I have never seen you like this at other times." Zhang Xiaoqin's tone was a little sour when she said this.
Sanchi took off his glasses and couldn't contain his excitement.
"By the way, I have good news to tell you." Zhang Xiaoqin didn't care at all about the content of Xia Mi's letter.
"I also have good news to tell you, you go first." Sangqi folded the letter carefully and waited for his wife to announce the good news.
"Yaoyao is pregnant."
Sangqi froze in his action of folding the letter and asked again in disbelief, "What did you say?"
"Yaoyao is pregnant, and you're going to be a grandfather soon." Zhang Xiaoqin said with a smile, and her voice rose a few decibels.
Sang Qi rarely smiled about Xia Yaoyao's affairs. He sighed, "These two children are really destined to be together. They even got pregnant at the same time."
"What did you say?" The smile on Zhang Xiaoqin's face disappeared, and she thought her husband was joking.
Sangqi raised the envelope in his hand and said, "Didn't I ask Xiao Mi to come back to visit my eldest sister's grave first? I took her to see her. She said in the letter that she was pregnant."
"It's really such a coincidence. They were taken away by mistake when they were young. They are both your nieces. Now they are pregnant at the same time. I don't know if these two children are compatible."
"If they got along well, why would the Xia family let Xiao Mi marry to the island?" Sangqi's tone suddenly lost its good tone.
Zhang Xiaoqin knew that Sang Qi would be unhappy if this matter was mentioned.
"Okay, okay, it's all in the past." Zhang Xiaoqin changed the subject, thinking about running into Mei Dujuan in the hospital today. "I went to the obstetrics department today and ran into Yaoyao's sister-in-law. She should be giving birth in the next two days."
Sangqi didn't have a good impression of that family and was very cold towards them.
"This has nothing to do with us. Didn't you say that Yaoyao doesn't like their family either?"
Zhang Xiaoqin sat down, opened the lid of the vanishing cream and prepared to wipe her face. "I just said that. You didn't think I was going to visit again, did you?"
"Their family is not simple either. It's best not to provoke them if possible." Sangqi put away the letter, walked to the bed and lay down to sleep.
Zhang Xiaoqin was very dissatisfied when she saw that her husband did not believe her. She turned around and glared at Sang Qi.
"I'm not that stupid."
Little did she know that this was not a matter of whether she could provoke him or not, but that some people would come to her.
Mei Dujuan gave birth to twin sons in the early morning.
Because the fetus was too big to be delivered, Mei Dujuan was exhausted and the child almost suffocated to death due to lack of oxygen. It took a lot of effort to give birth to the child. When she left the delivery room, her face was pale.
When the Mei family heard that their daughter had given birth, they rushed to visit her early.
Xia Yaoyao went to the hospital at noon. Although she and Mei Dujuan had a bad relationship, she was her sister-in-law after all. She bought a can of milk powder and a basket of eggs and went to visit Mei Dujuan.
As soon as I entered the hospital, I ran into Zhang Xiaoqin and Xia Yaoyao.
"Yaoyao, are you here to see your sister-in-law?" The thing in Xia Yaoyao's hand made it clear at a glance the purpose of her coming to the hospital.
