Chapter 375 Zhang Family

After Song Jin saw Madam Dong off, he returned to the dormitory to pack his luggage. He had just arrived and there were a lot of things to pack, including clothes he had worn earlier that needed to be washed.

While she was working, she was thinking about the Zhang family.

It is not easy for the Zhang family to have the background to open a bank. It is said that they once followed the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty to conquer the world and were granted a title, but later a member of the family stood on the wrong side and lost the title. Since then, the Zhang family has kept a low profile.

The main branch lives in the capital.

There are descendants of the Zhang family serving as officials in the court. For example, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works is from the Zhang family.

I'll talk to Qin Chi about it when he comes back tonight.

Let Qin Chi’s people investigate again.

After careful consideration, Song Jin decided to hand over the Zhang family's affairs to Qin Chi for investigation. The manpower she had developed over the years was not as good as the capable people in Qin Chi's hands.

At this time, Mu Ting walked in from outside.

Song Jin asked, "How is the new house?"

"The house is well preserved and can be lived in after a little maintenance. Uncle Li said that there are a few places that need minor repairs and he has already contacted the craftsmen. Uncle Hong also asked him to find a reliable one." Mu Ting said with a smile. When she saw Song Jin tidying up the boxes, she hurried forward to help. "Why don't you transfer Xiao Fu back from the kitchen? You are in need of a servant."

"I heard that Xiaofu is learning cooking from Aunt Feng."

Song Jin had thought about it, but she gave up the idea after hearing about this. Now she and her child are accompanied by Xiaoyu, Huang Pozi, Mu Ting and Qin Qi.

That's about it.

If there are more, this house won’t be able to accommodate them.

When Qin Chi bought this house, he didn't think that he would be promoted so quickly. He thought he would have to live here for many years in poverty and felt that it was suitable for him to live here.

Song Jin took time to go and see the new house in person.

Someone was cleaning the house, and craftsmen were repairing the walls. The big garden, the small garden, and the plants in the backyard were either unattended and growing wildly, or had died long ago.

The valuable flowers and plants have long been dug up.

The rest are all ordinary flowers, plants and trees.

Song Jin didn't mind this.

Mu Ting and Qin Qi, who were standing by, were also happy to see such a large house. When they moved in, they would each have a single room, instead of having to squeeze in with several people.

"Boss, do you want to ask Brother Wei to find some precious flowers and plants to plant?" Mu Ting asked excitedly.

Song Jin shook his head, "That's not necessary."

Others need expensive flowers and plants to decorate their houses, but their family does not. They are of grassroots origin, and it is good enough for them to maintain such a big house. If they spend money to buy some useless things just to show off, it would be inferior.

People should live with openness.

You should do things within your ability and do what needs to be done.

Such a big house is only for a family of four, so there is no need to spend money on the front yard or the back yard, they can just live in the front yard.

Because the house in the front yard is more than enough to accommodate everyone.

After cleaning, add new furniture.

Have the shop assistant bring it over and arrange it.

Song Jin did not want the previous furniture in the house, but added a batch of new ones. He carefully decorated the hall for receiving guests and the tea room where Qin Chi usually entertained guests.

Elegant and simple style.

It’s not expensive, but it makes people feel comfortable when they enter.

Mu Ting and Qin Qi were ordered around in circles, and Song Jin also took charge of the arrangements.

I was so busy that I stayed busy until dark.

Qin Chi came to pick her up in person. Seeing Song Jin sweating profusely, he wanted to give her a few words of advice, but swallowed them back and took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, "Madam, wipe your sweat."

"Thank you, sir."

Song Jin took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead. After wiping, she found that the handkerchief seemed to be soaked in water and was no different from the one she had brought before.

Qin Chi saw that she was embarrassed, including the makeup that made her look ugly, which had disappeared when she wiped the sweat. Her cheeks were as white as snow, and rosy. She was as beautiful as a peony bathed in dew in the early morning, making people want to pick it and hide it.

I discovered the restlessness in my heart.

Qin Chi quickly turned his eyes away and said in a concealing tone, "These hard tasks can be done by the people below. Is it necessary for my wife to do it herself?"

"We are short of manpower at home."

Song Jin said embarrassedly.

Qin Chi was choked up for a moment, "When we move here, I'll ask Uncle Li to bring a few more people back."

"OK."

Song Jin understood what he meant.

This person must be someone they trained. Qin Chi's status does not allow him to buy people from outside casually. Who can guarantee that the person he bought is not a spy arranged by others?

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Song Jin had no objection to this.

Just have someone to help with the work.

Qin Chi told Qin Qi something, then led Song Jin outside. When they reached the gate, he stopped again, turned to look at Song Jin and said, "My dear, I can protect you now, and your background is no longer a problem. Do you still need to hide it?"

Song Jin didn't understand why he asked suddenly.

It was just his fixed eyes, as if he was waiting for her answer.

Qin Chi raised his big hand with a clearly broken bone and stretched it to her cheek. He gently touched her cheek twice with the tip of his thumb, as if to remind her, "My lady has sweated a lot today, and the makeup on your face has been smudged."

Song Jin was shocked when he heard this.

He immediately covered his cheeks in embarrassment.

"I didn't notice it for a moment."

Then she covered her face with her sleeves and followed Qin Chi out. "I met a few people today. They are all shop assistants. There shouldn't be any problems. When I met them, I didn't even break out in a sweat."

"It doesn't matter."

"It's better not to do so, to avoid trouble."

Song Jin currently wants to keep a low profile and doesn't want to draw too much attention, so it's actually a good idea not to expose her appearance.

Qin Chi nodded with a smile, "That's fine, as long as my wife is happy."

It is better for him to keep the treasure to himself, so that only he can appreciate it.

Old Li drove his carriage and stopped outside the gate.

Qin Chi took Song Jin out and helped her to the door. He even lifted the car curtain himself. He was caring, attentive and considerate.

This scene caught the eyes of some people.

There was a carriage not far away, with the curtain slightly opened, just in time to see Qin Chi helping Song Jin get in the carriage. The affection between the two was not like what his father said, that Qin Chi was just pretending to be strong for the sake of his reputation.

"That's his wife?"

Wu Jingyao in the car asked coldly.

The maid next to her whispered back, "Yes."

"My father said that men work hard to climb up in life, and what they seek is nothing more than power, wealth and beauty. Qin Qi'an's wife is just a village woman, and she is ugly. There is no way he would like her. People outside say that he loves his wife and children, but it is not credible. They also say that scholars love hypocrisy and fame. As long as they are given a reason to win the beauty without damaging their reputation..."

Then, the marriage she had planned would be successful.
