Chapter 167: Qiu's Family is Happy and Their Business Opens with Good Luck
Wan Quan immediately went inside and called Old Lady Wan.
"Grandma, grandma, someone is coming. There is a carriage at the door. Please go and have a look."
Wan Quan's voice, filled with panic and joy, came into the kitchen.
The Wan family, who had never opened a shop, were a little flustered at this time. Mrs. Wan San was the chef and first entertained the table of the mayor and Shen Qinghan. She prepared twelve of her signature dishes and four soups.
At this time, Mrs. Wan Er and Mrs. Wan San were working in an orderly manner, and only Mrs. Wan was helping to light the fire in the kitchen.
Liu was sent by Old Lady Wan to accompany Zhao and Shen. Shen wanted to help, but was dragged out of the kitchen by Old Lady Wan.
Now Shen is not their daughter-in-law yet, but she is the county magistrate's sister and savior. She can't really treat her as her own.
Wan Quan was still a child. This was the first time his family opened a shop. As a country kid, how could he understand what it meant to be steady? When he saw a customer coming in, his first reaction was to call for an adult.
Old Lady Wan scolded her panicking grandson: "Why are you panicking? Isn't it a good thing for someone to come? Why are you running around? If you bump into someone important, be careful that they will beat you up."
Wan Quan was frightened by his grandmother's words and shrank his neck, looking at Old Lady Wan timidly.
"Okay, go to the front with grandma and ask Xier to call your fourth uncle out. He is the accountant. If he doesn't stay in the shop, he will go to the back to join in the fun. Be careful that his wages will be deducted at the end of the month."
When Wanquan heard that his fourth uncle was also scolded by grandma, he immediately started to smile.
"Grandma is right. We should deduct Uncle Si's wages for being lazy and not working."
After saying this, Wan Quan ran away without calling Wan Xi. He went to the backyard to find Wan Laosi.
As soon as Old Lady Wan came out, her two grandsons followed her quickly.
At this time, a pretty little girl got off the carriage at the door first, and then a man got off. The man stood beside the carriage waiting for the people inside.
Soon a beautiful woman came out, it was Qiu.
Qiu was dressed very simply today, but not plainly, except that she had less jewelry on her head.
As soon as she came out, she saw Old Mrs. Wan walking out.
Qiu stood on her horse and called out, "Mother."
Old Mrs. Wan took a closer look and found that it was Qiu. She was very happy and quickly quickened her pace to go out.
After she selected a date a few days ago, she asked someone to go to the Cheetah Sect to tell Qiu the news of her opening. Today, Old Lady Wan waited for a long time but didn't see any sign of Qiu, and thought she would not come today.
When Old Lady Wan walked out of the shop, Mrs. Qiu had already gotten off the carriage with the help of Wang Jiawei.
But Qiu was very careful and her hands involuntarily protected her belly. Old Mrs. Wan had given birth to several children and could tell at a glance that Qiu was not in good condition today, whether it was her walking posture or her complexion.
But they were on the street at the moment, so it was not convenient for her to ask. Xiao Fubao had reminded her before, and it seemed that this time it was true.
This is the first time that Wang Jiawei has visited the Cheetah Sect since he returned to the Wan family after recuperating from his injuries. Although he is not visiting the home in Shizi Village, it is the same as visiting the shop.
"Mom, how are you? Today is the opening day of our shop. I wish you a prosperous business and a good start."
Wang Jiawei bowed with a smile. He had not expected that since they met again after parting a year ago, the relationship between them had directly become a relative. It was really fate.
"Well, all of you come in quickly. It's cold outside. Come in and warm up. The mayor and the leader of the Golden Axe Gang are in the box at the back. I'll go and talk to them. Your brothers-in-law are honest and simple. I was afraid that they would offend people again. It's just right that you're here. You're all from the border and can talk to them."
After saying this, Old Lady Wan invited the two of them in with a smile.
Wang Jiawei did not expect that the Wan family could actually invite both the mayor and Shen Qinghan, and he began to have doubts about the identity of Old Lady Wan's family.
He learned from his wife Qiu that the Wan family were just peasants who were exiled here because of the involvement of the direct descendants of the Wan family in the capital. They did not have any powerful connections or background, but this family not only managed to survive the journey without exception, but also quickly settled down at the border.
But Wang Jiawei had indeed stayed in the Wan family, and there was really nothing special about him.
Before Wang Jiawei could think deeply, Old Lady Wan had already brought the people into the backyard, and at the same time took Qiu to Zhao's house.
Qiu and Zhao were sisters-in-law and old acquaintances, so without Grandma Wan's greeting, Qiu was able to get along with Zhao and the others.
Shen took the opportunity to go to the kitchen to help, as she couldn't get along with these people here.
On the contrary, she felt more comfortable being with Wan Ersao and Wan Sansao, and they could talk to each other.
Old Mrs. Wan was pulled by Qiu to sit down on the kang.
Qiu's maid was also sent out by Qiu to help.
"Jing'er, why are you so late today? We've missed the opening time. What happened?"
Old Mrs. Wan knew that Qiu had always been very concerned about this shop. She should not be late on such an important day as today, but she was late because of something. It must be that something had held her back.
Qiu was going to tell Old Lady Wan about it, but now that Old Lady Wan asked, Qiu no longer had to think about how to say it.
"Mom, I'm pregnant. When I woke up this morning, I suddenly felt a little nauseous. The sect leader asked a doctor to take my pulse and he said that I've been pregnant for more than a month. I calculated the date and it turned out that I got pregnant when I went to your house that day. Little Fubao's mouth is really blessed. If this baby is really a boy, I will definitely give Little Fubao a big red envelope to thank her."
Qiu's news shocked Zhao. She stared at Qiu's belly for a long time before muttering, "Jing'er, are you really pregnant? This is too fast."
Zhao was somewhat unable to believe it. After all, Qiu had only been in the Cheetah Sect for less than two months, and she was already over a month pregnant. The leader of the Cheetah Sect was truly powerful.
Old Lady Wan was delighted. She looked at Mrs. Qiu's belly and said to Mrs. Zhao with a smile, "What's so fast about this? This is normal. When I married that damned guy in my family, I got pregnant on the same day. This is just a coincidence. If it doesn't happen, you can only wait for the next time. Jing'er is lucky. It also means that this blessing has come."
Qiu's face was full of smiles. If she could really give Wang Jiawei a boy, then she would be able to use her son's power to interfere in the Cheetah Sect's business. With her intelligence, she would definitely be able to gain a foothold in the Cheetah Sect. Then she wouldn't have to look at anyone's face, and with a son, she would be able to stand firm.
The women in the room were talking lively, but outside the house was already crowded with guests.
Wan Laosi is simply unable to handle everything outside by himself.
