Qin Yune stood outside the shop with a smile on her face and called out in a clear voice, "Uncle Qian."
Qian Da was busy in the shop when he heard Qin Yune's voice. He was slightly taken aback, but then a look of surprise appeared on his face. He quickly put down what he was doing and hurried out to greet her, "Yune, what brings you here?"
"I came to see you and brought you some news about Aunt Li and the others." Qin Yune said, waving the lunchbox in her hand. "These are some pastries I made myself. Try them. I noticed that Aunt Li and the others like savory things, so I made some. I plan to send them to them when I get back later."
Qian Da was surprised that Qin Yunie had remembered such a small detail after only one visit. He smiled kindly, took the bag from her, and said, "You're so thoughtful. Come and sit down in the shop."
Upon entering the house, several ghosts recognized Qin Yunie. When they saw Qin Yunie, they exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, what brings Boss Qin here?"
Another ghost chimed in, "Yeah, Boss Qin, why aren't you guarding your own stall? What are you doing here?"
Qin Yune replied with a smile, "I came to deliver something."
Several of the ghosts present did not recognize Qin Yunie, and upon hearing this, they couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who exactly is this Boss Qin?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Da quickly smiled and introduced, "This is my own niece! She's currently selling boxed lunches at a street stall in that open space ahead. The taste is absolutely amazing; everyone who's tried it once wants to eat it again. She also offers delivery service, so please support her business in the future!"
The first ghost to see her only had one arm. Afraid of scaring Qin Yune, she deliberately turned her body to the side and hid the arm behind her back, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Boss Qin and Boss Qian would have this kind of relationship."
Qin Yunie was taken aback by Qian Dahui's words.
At this moment, Qian Er came out of the house after retrieving his things and immediately saw Qin Yune. His face showed surprise, and he couldn't help but ask, "Boss Qin?"
Qian Da turned around when he heard the voice, and after seeing Qin Yune, he smiled and said to her, "This is my younger brother. He came to your stall with me before. You should have seen him before. You can call him Uncle Qian Er."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yune greeted him with a generous smile, "Hello, Uncle Qian!"
Qian Er was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly replied, "Eh!"
Then he started rummaging through his pockets, trying to find something to give to Qin Yunie, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find anything. So he rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "Oh dear, my little niece, your second uncle didn't bring anything with him today. I'll definitely make it up to you another day!"
In an instant, all the ghosts in the room burst into laughter.
Qian Da said irritably, "Don't embarrass yourself here."
Although her words contained reproach, they were mostly filled with doting affection and a desire to help him out of a difficult situation.
Qian Er touched his head and gave an awkward smile.
The atmosphere wasn't awkward at all.
Qin Yunie laughed along, and said to Qian Er with a smile, "Uncle Qian has already given it to me."
Upon hearing this, Qian Er quickly waved his hand and said, "He is him, and I am me. Just because my elder brother gave it doesn't mean I can't give it! Boss Qin calls me Second Uncle, after all. How can I renege on this gift?"
Qian Er looked quite young, with a significant age difference compared to Qian Da. If it weren't for the fact that they vaguely resembled each other when standing together, it would be difficult for anyone to guess that they were actually brothers.
Seeing this, Qian Da could only shake his head helplessly, and then said to Qian Er, "Alright, you stay here and watch the shop. I have something to say to the girl."
Qian Er nodded obediently and replied, "Okay, leave this to me, you two can chat."
After saying that, he turned around and went to attend to the customers in the shop.
Qian Da then led Qin Yune into the inner room.
Qian Da gestured, "Sit wherever you like."
He then sat down nearby and asked, "How have they been lately?"
Qin Yunie immediately took out her phone. It was a video call she had with Aunt Li yesterday. Li Yuan's appearance in the video was not much different from when she was young. On the contrary, because she had aged, she had gained a charm that she did not have when she was young.
Qian Da couldn't help but reach out and stroke the woman in the video, murmuring, "She's still so beautiful."
Qin Yune noticed that his eyes were a little red and said softly, "Aunt Li said that she recently went on a trip with her friends and said that she misses the time when she went on trips with you. She didn't have to worry about anything. She said that on this trip, without your reminders, she forgot a lot of things, and the hotel's soundproofing was not good."
Upon hearing this, Qian Da laughed and said, "That's something she would do. She was quite spoiled when she was young. She wouldn't pack her clothes when she went on business trips, so I had to pack and organize them all. I had to do research beforehand when we went on vacation. If I didn't keep a close eye on her, she would disappear in the blink of an eye. She also can't cook. Every time she goes into the kitchen, it's a disaster."
As Qian Da spoke, he laughed first, "But she's very determined. Once she sets her mind on something, she'll definitely succeed. The only thing she can't do is cook. Once, she suddenly felt like making baby food for Rui Ze, who was only one year old, and Rui Ze found it so bad that he started talking. Since then, she hasn't stepped into the kitchen."
“Everyone says she’s so lucky to have married me and not have to do anything. But I know it’s me who’s lucky. I don’t know how many good deeds I did in my past life to marry her. When I was young, I didn’t have that much money. She gave me all the money she had to start my business. She also lived with me in a tiny room of just over ten square meters. When I was busy, she would stay up with me day and night to work overtime. So I vowed that when I made money, I would make sure she never had to suffer like this again.”
After saying that, he continued, "After I got money, I hired a housekeeper, but she didn't like having anyone at home, so I ended up taking care of everything. Back then, some people told me that the purpose of marrying a wife was to serve me. Then I blocked all of that person's contact information. I didn't marry her to have her do my laundry and cook for me. I will repay her with everything I have for the hardships she went through with me when she was young."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yunie suddenly felt a pang of envy. She said, "Aunt Li also said that she went to see the Northern Lights, which you most wanted to see, on her way there."
Upon hearing this, Qian Da chuckled and shook his head, saying, "It's not that I want to see it, it's that she once said she wanted to go to the Arctic to see the Northern Lights if she had the chance."
Qin Yunie was speechless. She had thought it would be a disappointment, but it turned out to be a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).
