Chapter 84. Later in Chapter 84, Liu Qingyue starts taking Su Su back…
Later, Liu Qingyue began to take Susu back to modern life, and Susu's studies in ancient times were temporarily put on hold.
Liu Qingyue was worried that Su Su was too young and would accidentally expose the secret of the time travel passage when she returned to modern life.
To prevent the child from accidentally revealing something, he stopped letting Susu go back to ancient times as often.
Children are forgetful; they can't remember things from before the age of three.
Liu Qingyue took him back to the modern world. As long as she didn't take him to the ancient times too often, he would gradually forget about the ancient times.
Once the child is a little older and able to control his eating habits, we can take him back without worry.
After Su Su returned to modern life, Qin Lianrui started cooking for Liu Qingyue and Su Su again.
With the addition of a child, Qin Ren gave her an extra salary.
With such a high salary, Qin Lianrui temporarily put aside her painting work and devoted herself wholeheartedly to cooking.
Her salary is so high now that if she works hard for a few years, she can buy a house in J City.
The thought of being able to buy a house in a big city in the future makes her feel truly happy with her life now.
When her parents got old, she brought them to the big city.
Large cities have convenient transportation and good medical facilities.
It's definitely better for them to retire in a big city than to stay in the countryside.
After Susu turned four years old, Liu Qingyue no longer needed to accompany him every day.
Qin Ren's parenting style involves raising the young man as a boy.
When Susu turned three, she started sleeping on her own.
So when he turned four, with Qin Lianrui and a nanny by his side, Liu Qingyue wouldn't have to stay in the modern world every day to look after him.
When Liu Qingyue was able to return to ancient times, Qin Ren brought back three children from outside.
These three children are all orphans, rescued by Wen Lingzheng on the battlefield.
When Qin Ren learned that there were a lot of orphans, he sent someone to the border to pick up three of them.
Qin Ren still remembered that Liu Qingyue wanted a daughter.
Now that Susu is four years old, the couple has no plans to have any more children.
Qin Ren thought that since he liked girls, he might as well adopt two from outside.
These orphans on the battlefield, who have no parents, find it difficult to survive on their own.
Most of them will be given away for adoption, and there may be many that will not be adopted.
Unlike in modern times, in ancient times, human life was as insignificant as an ant's, and the lives of children were even less valuable.
Unlike in modern times, it is very difficult to adopt a child now, and everyone cherishes their children.
In ancient times, without family planning, some families truly only cared about giving birth but not about raising the children.
If they couldn't raise the children, they would sell them like livestock to get money for food.
Some were even abandoned by their parents on the roadside right after birth, left to be eaten by wild animals passing by.
Qin Ren felt sorry for these children. They might not have wanted to be born into this world, but they were forced to be born by their parents.
They were forced into birth, but were not treated well, and many could not survive.
Since Liu Qingyue likes children, and he and Liu Qingyue are rich, powerful, and capable, they can adopt a few of these children.
In this way, these children without parents will have more protection to grow up in peace, and they can be considered to have done a good deed.
Of course, Qin Ren brought them back with the intention of saving a few children, not to make Liu Qingyue suffer.
Therefore, adopted children can never be pampered and cared for in the same way as biological children.
However, in ancient times, they could find someone to take care of the child.
Even if that's not possible, having parents do everything for you is definitely better than letting them wander the streets.
Qin Ren brought three children to see Liu Qingyue, originally intending for Liu Qingyue to choose one or two from them.
Unexpectedly, Liu Qingyue was soft-hearted, and after seeing the three children, he kept them all.
Liu Qingyue said, "If I don't keep them all, I don't know where the rest will be sent. It would be fine if they could be taken into good families, but I'm afraid some of them will be bullied. They are still so young, they look about the same age as Susu. If they are taken away by bad people, I don't know what kind of people they will become."
Anyway... he and Qin Ren weren't short of money. They had so many servants at home, even if there were three more mouths to feed, the two of them could afford it.
Qin Ren nodded upon hearing this, "Alright, then they're in your care. You don't need to work too hard. Just find a wet nurse for each of them, and you don't need to worry about anything else."
Liu Qingyue agreed and called the three children over.
"What are your names? How old are you?"
Three children, two girls and one boy.
The boy was the bravest and also the oldest.
He glanced at Liu Qingyue cautiously, making sure she was a gentle and generous person, before answering her question.
"My name is Xiaoyuan, and I am eight years old."
Seeing this, the other two girls realized that Liu Qingyue would be their adoptive father from now on, so they also mustered up their courage and began to answer Liu Qingyue's questions.
"My name is Xiaohui, and I am five years old."
"My name is Mangmang, and I am six years old."
Liu Qingyue smiled upon hearing this, "You are all good children. From now on, you can call me Father."
The boy, Xiao Yuan, asked, "Are you the head husband here?"
Liu Qingyue adopted them, and her identity would determine their future status in the family.
"Yes, I am the master of this household."
"I... I heard this is the Marquis's residence. Can we really live here from now on?"
"Yes, you can live here from now on. This is your home. I am your father, and the Marquis is your father."
Xiao Yuan's thoughts were simple and straightforward. Upon hearing that he would be the Marquis's son in the future, he couldn't help but laugh happily.
He was orphaned at a young age and was found and raised by an old woman on the border.
The old woman treated him badly; she only raised him to provide labor for the family.
His family often beat and scolded him, and sometimes they wouldn't even give him food.
So when they were all killed by the enemy, he didn't feel particularly sad.
Liu Qingyue summoned the head housekeeper and found three wet nurses for the three children, and also arranged a servant to serve each of them.
Liu Qingyue did not let them live in the main courtyard, but arranged for them all to live in the side courtyard on the west side.
Liu Qingyue felt that although he didn't treat them with the same meticulous care as their biological parents, he was still quite good to each of them.
After all, even his own flesh and blood hadn't stayed by his and Qin Ren's side like they had.
Clearly, the three children did not feel that he treated them badly.
The youngest of them is five years old and has memories of their biological parents.
Liu Qingyue and Qin Ren did not treat them as closely as their biological parents.
But the life they live now is incomparable to what they used to live.
With wet nurses to take care of them and servants to serve them, they didn't have to worry about being bullied in the Marquis's mansion.
Such a life is already happier and more fortunate than that of the vast majority of children in Nanning.
After making arrangements for the children, Liu Qingyue didn't spend much more time on them.
Sometimes his thoughts were the same as Qin Ren's.
He felt that compared to parental pampering and spoiling, it was more useful for children to learn independence and grow up.
Now that SuSu is forced to be independent, the other three children should be the same.
Liu Qingyue doesn't care about their gender; even girls should strive to be strong.
Especially in this male-dominated world, girls have to work harder than boys to live their own lives.
In the days that followed, Qin Ren began to study new papermaking and printing techniques.
Despite having already invented gunpowder, he also invented a battery through his own efforts.
However, the development of these things requires a certain industrial base.
After several years of hard work, Dayong can now guarantee that 90% of its people have enough to eat.
However, we are still quite far from the industrial age.
Even though Qin Ren is making great strides now, the overall development of the country still can't keep up.
In order for the country to develop rapidly, we still need to develop papermaking and printing technologies first.
Only when paper becomes cheap can more people learn to read and write, thus cultivating more useful talents.
If we want to improve the overall level of cultural literacy, books and paper need to become cheaper.
While Qin Ren was researching papermaking and printing techniques, Liu Qingyue was also busy expanding his shop.
Now their family is quite large.
With more people to support, monthly expenses have also increased.
Liu Qingyue didn't want to ask Qin Ren for money for everything, so she decided to start her own cosmetics factory in the modern world.
He runs his own factory and manufactures cosmetics himself.
Then they used the cosmetics they made to exchange for real gold and silver in ancient times.
In ancient times, he had no competitors, and his cosmetics were extremely rare, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to sell them for a good price.
Liu Qingyue shared her thoughts with Qin Ren, who naturally gave her full support.
Qin Ren helped Liu Qingyue contact a few friends and asked them to help Liu Qingyue set up a cosmetics factory in the modern world.
The factory was located in the town where Qin Ren was from.
Choosing this location for the factory is advantageous because it's cheaper to set up a factory here, both in terms of land and labor costs.
Secondly, his factory in the countryside effectively solved the local employment problem, and the national and local governments will also provide support.
The money Liu Qingyue invested, plus the support from the local government, was enough for them to set up a very good factory.
Because of government support, there's no need to worry about local bullies causing trouble.
Of course, no local bullies bothered this factory.
Also, many people now know that Liu Qingyue is Qin Ren's lover.
Half of Liu Qingyue's factory was invested in by Qin Ren himself.
Whether they knew Qin Ren or not, everyone had to give him some face, so naturally no one caused any trouble.
