Chapter 38 Your Wife Throws Dirty Water on Me

The thatched house in the Qin family’s backyard.

Qin Chi originally wanted to teach Erlang and Sanlang how to wash cigarettes before it got completely dark.

Washing smoke is a necessary process in making Hui ink.

Qin Chi’s method was simple. He poured all the cigarette ashes that the two brothers had collected during this period into a basin of clean water and said that he wanted to let them settle overnight.

The next day, the fine ashes will float to the surface of the water, and the coarse ones will sink to the bottom of the basin.

Then gently scoop up the floating ashes.

Then put it in a cool place and let it sit for a year.

Qin Chi had just finished explaining the matter.

Qin Daya ran over to report the news.

"Brother! The eldest sister-in-law and the youngest sister-in-law are arguing. Go over and take a look."

"I'll go over and take a look. Erlang, you clean up this place." Qin Chi hurried out of the thatched house.

"Okay, big brother, go quickly, I'll go to support you and big sister-in-law in a moment!"

Erlang urged Qin Chi to hurry up.

Sanlang dropped his tools and ran out.

When Qin Chi arrived, he happened to see Sanlang holding a broom, standing in front of Song Jin, facing Song Xiu who was almost going crazy.

Song Xiu was soaked all over and water droplets were falling from her hair.

Song Jin was intact and standing in front of the kitchen door.

Second Aunt stood aside with bright eyes.

Seeing Sanlang's attitude, Xiao Liu stepped forward and slapped him on the head, "What are you doing here, little brat? Get out of the way."

"Mom, what do you know? I have to protect my eldest sister-in-law for my eldest brother."

Sanlang held a broom in his hand and stood with the aura of a general.

Song Jin pressed his little head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"What are you doing? What are you doing here?! There is not a single day of peace here. I really don't know what sin my Qin family has committed to marry two troublemakers into the family."

Old Mrs. Liu stepped out of the main house and started cursing.

Just as Old Liu put her hands on her hips and prepared to continue scolding.

Old Man Qin pushed her from behind and said, "Get out of the way. You are blocking my way."

Old Liu's expression was particularly funny and interesting. She opened her mouth to curse several times, but was intimidated by Old Man Qin's fist and could only step aside in frustration.

It perfectly illustrates what it means that there is always someone stronger than you.

When Old Man Qin arrived, no one dared to say a word.

Qin Chi pulled the funny San Lang aside, then stood leisurely beside Song Jin, and asked with a fake smile: "What joke did my aunt make this time?"

"You damn..."

Song Xiu was so angry that her teeth itched, "Your wife threw dirty water on me."

"My wife has always had a good temper. If she could throw water on you, it must be that you have done something weird again." After Qin Chi said this, the other people in the Qin family actually thought it made sense.

Even Old Man Qin looked at Song Xiu with suspicion.

Song Xiu was so angry that she was about to open her mouth to explain.

"I know that! I know that!"

Little Liu, the troublemaker, jumped out first and started telling the story excitedly.

"My fourth sister-in-law just told me that it was Dalang's wife who spread rumors that my uncle was inhumane! Then, Dalang's wife suddenly threw a basin of dirty water on my fourth sister-in-law, saying that my fourth sister-in-law threw dirty water on her behind her back..."

This dirty water comes and goes.

If you don't listen carefully, you will be confused.

But everyone suddenly realized.

As expected, it was Song Xiu who was causing trouble again.

Faced with everyone's strange looks, Song Xiu could no longer bear it and ran back into the house in anger with a stompling of her feet.

"unlucky!"

Old Liu spat.

Then, Old Liu set her sights on Song Jin.

She was still thinking about Song Jin's dowry, but since he was not at home, she had no chance to find it.

Qin Chi's eyes were dark.

Qin Chi was too familiar with Old Liu's calculating look.

Immediately, Qin Chi smiled casually and said, "Grandma, while everyone is here, it's time to share the gifts I bought."

"Why divide it? The good things should be put away first and used during the New Year or other festivals."

Old Mrs. Liu glared at Qin Chi angrily.

That's why she doesn't like her eldest grandson.

Like Li, he has been unpopular since childhood.

Qin Chi was not angry, but smiled even more. "Grandma, don't you know? Most of what I bought this time are food. They can't be kept for too long, or they will go bad."

Without waiting for Old Liu to speak.

Qin Chi continued, "I saved money and bought good wine for Grandpa. Grandma, please don't hide it and send it to your parents' home like you did before. My uncle has a bunch of children and grandchildren, so there's no need for me to show my filial piety to him."

"What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever use your grandfather's wine to honor your uncle?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Old Mrs. Liu raised her finger and pointed at Qin Chi, her hands shaking with anger.

Under Old Man Qin's questioning gaze, he might have been frightened, or he might have felt guilty.

Qin Chi just looked at Old Liu helplessly and sighed, "Well, whatever grandma says is what it is. If you don't have it, then you don't have it. Maybe I remembered it wrongly."

It would be better not to say this.

Anyone would think that the grandson had no choice but to not disobey the old man.

Song Jin was filled with admiration.

It is not uncommon in the village for the younger generation in the family to buy things and bring them home, and for the elders to put them away.

The things were put away by Old Liu, and she has never been seen taking them out.

"Da Lang, do you have a gift for me?"

Little Liu spoke fearlessly.

Qin Chi nodded, "Yes, the whole family has them, but unfortunately, grandma took them all back into the house."

"Mom, why don't you just take your share? Why are you taking ours as well?" Little Liu was dissatisfied.

Sanlang was about to agree, but Erlang, who had just arrived, covered his mouth, and his words turned into "hmmmm".

The Qin family is quite special in the entire Qinjiagou.

Old man Qin had seen the world and had set the family rules early on.

The son and daughter-in-law only need to hand over half of the money they earn privately to the public treasury, and they can keep the rest for themselves.

Old Man Qin let his grandchildren keep the money they earned.

In Old Man Qin's eyes, children can't make much money.

But who would have known that the eldest grandson was so smart that he could make Hui ink by himself to exchange for money and also help several younger children in the family.

"Liu, hurry up and take out the things and divide them up. If I see you embezzling the younger generation's things again, don't blame me for punishing you."

When old man Qin thought about this old man, he felt like beating him up when he thought about how he dared to secretly take the things his grandson gave him as a gift back to his mother's house. Just now, seeing the guilty look on Old Liu's face, he must have done it before, probably more than once or twice.

Under pressure.

Old Liu went back to the house cursing under her breath.

He took out most of the things, but still took the risk of being beaten and withheld a small half.

Qin Chi saw it, but didn't say anything.

After dividing all the things, he took Song Jin back to the house.

"My lady, you didn't suffer any loss this time, did you?" Qin Chi asked with a smile.

Song Jin knew he was doing it on purpose, and glanced at him with her phoenix eyes, "This time you've made a fool of yourself, my husband."

"Look at what the lady said."

Even if Qin Chi thought so in his heart, he couldn't admit it on his face, "I am just concerned about my wife, there is no other intention."

"Yes, yes, whatever my husband says is what it is." Song Jin answered perfunctorily.

"Why do you sound so familiar?"

Qin Chi walked into the house and sat down leisurely.

Song Jin took out clean bedding from the cupboard and began to make the bed skillfully.

Of course I am familiar with it! Isn't that the tone he used when he plotted against Old Liu?
