It was a new day, the sun rose as usual, and Wu Guixiang went out with a basket of vegetables.
"Aunt Wu, are you going to buy vegetables?" A crisp voice sounded.
Wu Guixiang turned around and saw the daughter-in-law of the Qian family in the alley. She walked over with a warm smile on her face. She asked in a familiar tone, "Aunt Wu, what delicious food are you going to make today?"
"You don't know, every time your family cooks, the aroma can be smelled throughout the alley. When I look at my own food, I can't eat it at all. When you have time, please teach me. I also want to learn this cooking skill."
The Qian family's daughter-in-law was complimenting Wu Guixiang in every word and action.
Wu Guixiang was a little puzzled. She hadn't even spoken a few words to this person, but he was already teaching her how to cook. He was really very approachable.
"If you want to cook delicious food, the most important thing is to be willing to use more oil and ingredients," Wu Guixiang said casually, "As long as the ingredients are good, even stir-fried shoe soles will taste good."
The Qian family's wife's smile froze. "Putting oil and ingredients in, which one doesn't cost money? Who has the family conditions like the Su family, can afford to make as much as they want?"
"You're right. I'll try it next time." She agreed. After all, she wasn't really here to ask how to cook.
"Um...Aunt Wu." The Qian family's wife looked a little hesitant, but couldn't help asking out of curiosity, "What does your wife's older brother, Mr. Qin, who often comes to our alley, do for a living?"
Wu Guixiang narrowed her eyes. Oh wow, he wanted to find out about Xiao Qin.
"Let's just do some small business. I don't know the details." Wu Guixiang said casually.
"Small business?" The Qian family's wife curled her lips, clearly unconvinced. "What kind of small business can afford such a nice car?"
Qin Xun always came to Oak Alley by car. Nowadays, people who own cars are the richest of the rich. Qin Xun is well-dressed and has a good image and temperament. He has been noticed by people in the alley for a long time, and many people are talking about him behind his back.
She heard that the car alone would cost tens of thousands.
"What business?" Wu Guixiang squinted at her. "You really want to know?"
"I do." Qian's wife nodded vigorously.
"If you want to know, next time Xiao Qin comes, I'll call you and you can ask him yourself."
Huh? The Qian family's wife laughed dryly, "That's not necessary, I'm just a little curious."
Wu Guixiang snorted lightly and said nothing.
"Aunt Wu." The Qian family's wife still didn't give up. "Is Mr. Qin married? Does he have children? Is he single?"
Wu Guixiang stopped and looked at her with a cold expression, "Why are you asking these questions? Where did you hear that?"
"I overheard it a while ago." The Qian family's wife was startled by Wu Guixiang's expression and replied, "Aunt Wu, I don't mean anything else. I just thought, look, it would be a pity for someone as capable as Mr. Qin to be alone forever."
Wu Guixiang sneered and finally revealed her true purpose. She deliberately asked, "Why? Do you have a good candidate to recommend?"
"Of course there are!" The Qian family's wife thought there was a play and instantly became excited. "As for my sister-in-law, you have seen her too. She is pretty, right? She has a formal job and is younger than Mr. Qin, but she is still a virgin. There are many people who like her, but my sister-in-law has high standards and doesn't like anyone. That's why she is single until now. The last time she met Mr. Qin, she had some interest in her, so she asked me to ask her."
"Aunt Wu, do you think you can help me to build a bridge or something?" The Qian family's daughter-in-law said with a shy smile.
Matchmaking? Wu Guixiang almost laughed when she heard that.
As for her elder sister-in-law, the eldest daughter of the Qian family, everyone in Oak Alley knew her. She was a girl in her thirties who had never married. It wasn't because she had high standards, but because she didn't cherish her fiancé when she was young and had an affair with other men. In the end, her fiancé found out and broke off the engagement. Her reputation was ruined, and she is still alive today.
Such a bastard dared to hook up with Xiao Qin? Wu Guixiang was so angry that she almost laughed.
She had not been in Oak Alley for long, but that did not mean she did not know about these things. Long before, Wu Guixiang had found out the situation of every household in Oak Alley. They were all thousand-year-old foxes. How could she act out "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" with her? She thought she knew who she was.
"Do you know what Xiao Qin does?" Wu Guixiang asked Qian's wife.
The Qian family's wife was stunned for a moment and shook her head. "I don't know. Didn't I just ask you?"
"Let me tell you what Xiao Qin does." Wu Guixiang really felt that if she didn't let these people know her own strengths and weaknesses, no one would dare to get close to Xiao Qin.
"Xiao Qin, that's a big boss in Gangcheng. He runs his own big company!" Although Wu Guixiang didn't quite understand what that company was, she gave an example. "What's a car? Do you know how much money Xiao Qin gave to my granddaughter's school, Huaqing University, the best university in the country?"
"How much?" Qian's wife asked subconsciously.
"This number." Wu Guixiang stretched out two fingers.
The Qian family's wife widened her eyes and guessed at the highest level, "Twenty thousand?"
"What 20,000?" Wu Guixiang rolled her eyes and said word by word, "It's 2 million!"
Duo Shao?! The Qian family’s wife was dumbfounded, unable to believe it. Two million, this number was simply unimaginable to her.
"He just gave so much money to others so casually? Is he crazy?" The wife of the Qian family had a sad face. Although the money had nothing to do with her, she still felt painful.
"Who do you think he is?" Wu Guixiang continued, "Xiao Qin gave him two million as easily as spending two dollars. He's not short of money anyway."
It's not so easy for her to spend two dollars, is it? The Qian family's wife was speechless.
"Also, I haven't told you about my daughter-in-law's status yet." Wu Guixiang continued, "Do you know where Xiao Qin and my daughter-in-law's parents live?"
"where?"
"The compound in Dongcheng District." Wu Guixiang didn't explain it in detail, but it was enough to shock the other family.
Aren’t the big compounds in Dongcheng District filled with… various high-ranking officials and military district chiefs?
After realizing what was happening, Qian's wife was stunned.
"Do you still think your sister-in-law is worthy of our Xiao Qin?" Wu Guixiang asked.
Of course, she is not worthy of him, but the Qian family's wife still said stubbornly: "What's the use of having more money? A man needs a wife, children and a warm bed to be considered complete."
If Mr. Qin is really that powerful, then the fact that he has no wife and children is even more suspicious. Could he be incompetent in some way?
