Chapter 115

But something even more bizarre is coming.

Qin Xiang has not made any move, but Qin Yang is already browsing the shelves, and then he takes out a long-sleeved dress and hands it to her, "How about this one?"

"It's very nice." Zhao Qian took the dress, not daring to look at Qin Yang.

Qin Xiang nodded, "This dress really suits Qian Qian."

Although Zhao Qian's appearance is not outstanding, she has fair skin. Her slight fatness is only relative to people of this era. In fact, she is 1.58 meters tall, and weighs 110 kilograms? Not bad.

The dress Qin Yang took was knee-length, and although it was a light green dress, it made Zhao Qian's skin look even fairer.

"Go and try it on." Qin Xiang pushed Zhao Qian, and Zhao Qian pursed her lips and took the dress to change.

Qin Xiang turned around and met Miao Xiaofeng's sad eyes, as if her third brother had done something wrong to her.

Miao Xiaofeng seemed to notice Qin Xiang's gaze and quickly retracted her gaze, but at the moment of lowering her head, that look could not deceive anyone.

Qin Xiang had high hopes for the store clerks, and indeed they were all trained as reserve cadres in the future, otherwise she would not have allowed them to take turns to enroll in night school to learn something.

Although He Liping was the youngest, she was quick-witted and learned the fastest. I heard that she studied very hard.

Even though Tan Xiu didn't have time to go now, she was also learning some knowledge from He Liping and working very hard to improve her abilities.

Even the honest Li Hongxia, it is said, took advantage of the time when there were no customers to discuss with He Liping how to entertain customers. She even went to the department store next door to observe and learn from the attitude of the salesperson there. She paid close attention to observing how people who were better than her provided services.

Except Miao Xiaofeng.

She made no mistakes, but she didn't make any big ones.

She was also efficient.

It was her temper that Qin Xiang really couldn't stand.

But she couldn't transfer the third brother away because of this. After all, this store was the one where the third brother got his dividends, while the others only got wages and bonuses.

Qin Xiang had a headache.

Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Qin Yang looking over there. It turned out that it was Zhao Qian who came out wearing a changed skirt.

All the light bulbs in the store were the brightest. Although there was some distortion, it was clearer to see.

The light green skirt fits Zhao Qian very well. With her shoulder-length hair and a headband on her head, she looks even more gentle and delicate. One can immediately notice her temperament, not her face.

Zhao Qian's bookish aura is far more attractive than her appearance.

Qin Xiang suddenly understood why her third brother treated Zhao Qian differently.

Zhao Qian was a little unconfident and smiled, "Does it look good?"

Although the question was directed at Qin Xiang, her eyes couldn't help but look at Qin Yang.

Qin Xiang asked Qin Yang, "Third brother, you picked this, what do you think?"

Qin Yang nodded with a wooden face, seeming to sense the teasing in his sister's eyes, "It looks good."

Qin Xiang smiled.

Zhao Qian also blushed.

"Girl?"

"Oh, okay." Miao Xiaofeng felt blinded by the scene. It was because she had no talent, poor family conditions, and no parents who were teachers that she was looked down upon.

Miao Xiaofeng lowered her head and wiped away her tears, and hurried to serve the customers.

It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and Qin Xiang matched Huang Rong with another outfit before sending them out.

After walking out of the store, Huang Rong kept looking at Zhao Qian, making Zhao Qian feel a little uncomfortable, "Why are you looking at me?"

Huang Rong clicked her tongue and said, "I really didn't expect that you and Qin Yang would fall in love with each other."

Zhao Qian's face turned red, "Huang Rong, stop talking nonsense."

"Don't let me talk anymore." Huang Rong and Zhao Qian have been friends for many years and know her personality very well, "If you like her, then you like her. If you like her, then you will agree with her. Qin Xiang is a good person, and the brother she trusts must not be bad. The most is that the man looks a little fierce and uneducated, but there's nothing to be afraid of. You can teach him in the future. This can also be regarded as a pleasure for your concubines."

Huang Rong was bold and spoke without scruples. Zhao Qian's face turned red, but her personality was like this to begin with. She was not a very passionate person. What Huang Rong said might not be what she thought. However, she also disagreed, "He's not fierce."

"Oh, hey, nothing has happened yet, and you're already protecting me." Huang Rong joked, "Why, do you like him so much?"

Zhao Qian used to like to tell Huang Rong everything, and now she didn't hesitate to tell the truth, "Not really, I just think he's not as fierce as he looks. That time I went there alone, and he sent me back because it was too late. Of course, I know he did it for Qin Xiang's sake, but I really don't think he's as fierce as he looks."

Huang Rong laughed, "Okay, okay, he's the best and the most gentle, okay."

Zhao Qian was so angry that she hit her, "You actually laughed at me."

"I'm not kidding you." Huang Rong put away her smile and said, "But if you really like him, you have to act sooner. I can see that there are many people who like Qin Yang."

Zhao Qian didn't pay any attention and asked, "Who?"

Huang Rong rolled her eyes, "Don't forget Miao Xiaofeng in their store. She has the upper hand and is much easier to capture a man than you. You've only been there a few times. You can't go there every day to catch up with her, right? We see each other every day."

Zhao Qian suddenly felt nervous when she heard this . She panicked, "But, but there is nothing between him and me..."

She couldn't help but feel frustrated, "If I was really conquered by Miao Xiaofeng, then I have nothing to say."

At this moment, Miao Xiaofeng also found an opportunity to get close to Qin Yang in the store, "Brother Yang, you go and have a rest, I'll just watch over you here."

Qin Yang didn't move, "No, go and do your own thing."

Miao Xiaofeng felt a little disappointed. Noticing Qin Xiang's gaze, Miao Xiaofeng glanced at Qin Xiang and then quickly shrank back, and quickly stood in another position waiting to serve customers.

At ten o'clock, the store closed, and Qin Xiang went back upstairs to wash up and go to bed.

At this time in Shandong Province, it was a little cool at night. Maybe it was because I slept too much on the plane, but now I can't sleep.

Just at this moment, the sound of a car suddenly came from downstairs, and it seemed to have stopped downstairs.

Qin Xiang's heart trembled, and he got up quickly, opened the curtain and looked down.

He just saw Meng Huaiqing getting off the car.

The man wore a white shirt, black trousers, and a pair of three-jointed leather shoes. He put his hands in his pockets and glanced upstairs casually, but he didn't want to meet Qin Xiang's eyes.

Although he couldn't see clearly, Meng Huaiqing was still stunned.

Didn't you say you were going to Guangzhou? Why did you suddenly return to the provincial capital?

Meng Huaiqing suddenly realized that his uncle was helping him, no wonder he called him late at night to ask him to come over.

Meng Huaiqing opened his mouth and pointed outside.

Seeing Qin Xiang nodded, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He was in a very happy mood.

How lost he was in the capital, how excited he was now.

He even wondered if Qin Xiang hadn't mentioned returning to the provincial capital. Did she come all the way from Guangzhou just for him?

He couldn't help but feel annoyed for a moment. If he had known this, he should have asked proactively. He shouldn't have done too much for her, but as a friend, he should have helped her book tickets.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but frown when he saw Miao Sheng poking his head out of the car. "You guys go back to the hotel first."

Miao Sheng said immediately, "Boss, this is not safe."

Meng Huaiqing sneered, "Miao Sheng, this is in the mainland, not in Hong Kong. They can't reach here."

The date of return has been set, and many Hong Kong businessmen are busy making connections and whitewashing themselves. They must be crazy to come to the mainland to take action.

Seeing that Miao Sheng was still worried, he said, "Then you guys stay away. Qin Xiang and I have something important to discuss."

Miao Sheng agreed, but he complained in his heart: What important things are there to discuss? Do they have any business dealings? He just wants to pick up girls.

But now Miao Sheng has learned his lesson, and would rather complain in his heart than say it out loud. If the petty boss hears it, his bonus will be deducted.

Miao Sheng obediently drove the car far away, and another car full of bodyguards also drove away.

At this time, Meng Huaiqing saw Qin Xiang coming downstairs, with her long hair draped over her shoulders and not tied up. She was less capable than usual, but more gentle.

In addition, Qin Xiang had a pretty face, fair skin, and a tall stature. Meng Huaiqing's heart skipped a beat when he saw her smile.

He gently raised his hand to cover his chest, feeling his heartbeat, and laughed dumbly.

Qin Xiang was puzzled, "Mr. Meng, are you feeling unwell?"

"No." Meng Huaiqing put down his writing and walked over to Qin Xiang, "I just didn't expect you to come back so suddenly, I was a little surprised. Then I remembered the poem, 'Looking back suddenly, that person is in the dim light.' I didn't realize it when I read it before, but just now I just looked up casually, and I didn't expect to see the person I wanted to see. I was very surprised and surprised."

Qin Xiang didn't seem to understand what he meant, and only explained objectively and factually, "I didn't plan to come back, but I happened to find someone to buy a plane ticket there, so I thought about coming back to see my third brother."

Facing Meng Huaiqing's expectant eyes, Qin Xiang still couldn't say anything to make the other party happy.

Flirting is fine, but it will be troublesome if something goes wrong during the conversation.

It is not the time to enjoy life yet. What she lacks now is not a man, but the satisfaction brought by career success and money.

She always believes that as long as she has these two things, she will be able to choose any kind of man.

Meng Huaiqing is too good for her now, and she will not be able to compete with him after a quarrel.

In a word: she can't handle it at the moment.

So even if this man is attractive, she will not let him move her easily.

Fortunately, Meng Huaiqing did not dwell on this matter, and still said gently, "That's good, Qin Yang will definitely be happy. But did I disturb you so late at night?"

He glanced at the clothes Qin Xiang was wearing, which were long-sleeved pajamas and pajamas. The style was simple but comfortable.

Qin Xiang shook her head, "No, I slept all the way on the plane back, so I'm not sleepy now."

The two said this and walked along the road to the big square next to it.

It was almost eleven o'clock, and most of the stalls were almost empty. Most people had left to go home and rest.

There was a stall selling wontons, and there were still two customers who hadn't left. The boss was not in a hurry to clean up the stall.

Qin Xiang glanced at Meng Huaiqing, "Would you like to have a bowl? Her wontons taste good, and the ingredients are clean. You don't have to worry about feeling uncomfortable after eating it."

Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Of course, I'd rather obey than be respectful."

After ordering two bowls of wontons, Meng Huaiqing touched her pocket, took out her wallet and took out a big reunion.

Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You'll make the boss embarrassed by doing this."

As she said that, she took out a dollar and handed it over.

A bowl of wontons costs 50 cents, two bowls costs one yuan.

While waiting for the wontons to cook, Meng Huaiqing looked around, "The nights in the mainland are very lively."

Qin Xiang, however, had seen the prosperity of later generations, and now is still far from it, "It will be more lively in the future."

There are large shopping malls, amusement parks, cinemas, and even places open 24 hours a day. As long as people have needs, there will be services in the market.

China is still too poor and backward now, but it will be a different scene in 20 or 30 years.

Looking at Qin Xiang's eyes, Meng Huaiqing's heart beat faster, and there was a strong urge to say something.

But he was timid at this time, probably because he knew the result.

Meng Huaiqing met her gaze and nodded slightly, "Of course it will. It will be more prosperous than Hong Kong."

Qin Xiang also thought so. Today, Hong Kong is still one of the four Asian tigers, but its small area still hinders its development. In the tide of the times, it is difficult for Hong Kong to maintain its current glory. Qin Xiang

looked at him, "Is that why you plan to enter the mainland?"

"Part of the reason."

At this time, the wontons were served. Meng Huaiqing scooped a wonton and took a bite. The wontons with fresh meat were added with some coriander and tasted very delicious. He took a bite and continued, "On the one hand, I am optimistic about the development of the mainland, and on the other hand, it is because of my grandmother."

Qin Xiang thought of Master Ge and became interested in Meng Huaiqing's grandmother, "Is she in poor health?"

Otherwise, why would she miss her family but refuse to come to the mainland.

Meng Huaiqing shook his head and laughed, "Grandma is actually in good health, but she was sad when she left home, so she didn't want to come back. Sometimes she would get mad and want to see my uncle, but my uncle has a worse temper than grandma."

He sighed and said, "But in fact, I know that grandma misses the mainland and home very much. The small building where you opened your store was where she used to live, so when the revolution ended, , my uncle tried his best to get the house back, and lived next door to guard it. Grandma was always worried about home but couldn't let it go, so she refused to come back. She just turned a blind eye to my behavior of coming back. "

He looked at the small building from a distance, with a gentle smile in his eyes, "Grandma said that the room you live in now is the one she lived in before, do you think this is fate?"

It is indeed fate.

This story is also very touching.

No wonder Meng Huaiqing was willing to rent the house to her but refused to sell it.

Meng Huaiqing added, "Actually, grandma thinks that the past is the past. Even if that house was where she lived before, who knows how many people have lived in it and ruined it over the years. It is no longer the original place. I just think that my uncle has been guarding this place all his life. If it is really sold, then he probably won't miss it anymore."

They couldn't say much about the brother-sister relationship between the old people. Even Meng Huaiqing didn't know why grandma left the mainland and went to Hong Kong City alone. I don't understand why my uncle refused to go to Hong Kong City to see his grandma after the border migration.

Maybe everything doesn't need an answer. After

a bowl of hot wontons went down my stomach, my body felt better.

The boss waited for them to finish eating and then collected the things. The couple pulled the cart and pushed it from the back. It was a very ordinary and warm scene.

Qin Xiang was very touched, but not envious.

Meng Huaiqing was a little envious, "Children from such a family must be very happy, right?"

Qin Xiang shook her head, "Not necessarily. You envy their happiness and mutual support, but they may also envy your family background and wealth. You only see the man pulling the cart and the woman supporting him from behind. It is possible that the man falls asleep when he gets home, and the woman has to drag her tired body to clean up the house and prepare for tomorrow's business."

Meng Huaiqing was stunned and frowned slightly, "Is that so?"

"Not to say absolutely, but this is the current situation in China." Qin Xiang sighed, "Most men are patriarchal and regard women as their belongings. They may be submissive outside, but they are the boss when they get home. They always say that men and women are the same and women can hold up half the sky, but this only increases the burden on women. Not only do they have to do a good job at work, but they also have to take care of the family. Once there is a problem with the elderly and children at home, the first person to be blamed is the woman: How do you take care of the family?"

Qin Xiang sneered, "At this time, men may use the excuse of being busy at work and naturally push the responsibility onto women. So what's the point of such a marriage?"

Meng Huaiqing looked at Qin Xiang and thought about the couples in Hong Kong City. It seemed to be the same. The rich are better, but the women of the rich only revolve around men and children. There is no self.

In such a contrast, Qin Xiang's self-reliance and self-improvement are so attractive that he is fascinated.

Meng Huaiqing had heard about Qin Xiang's past, so he said, "Can I ask you a question?"

Qin Xiang seemed to see through his thoughts, "Are you going to ask me about my previous marriage?"

Meng Huaiqing smiled, "I don't think you mind mentioning it, so can you satisfy my curiosity?"

"Of course." Qin Xiang really didn't mind others mentioning this matter. If others didn't mention it, she was too lazy to mention it. If others took the initiative to mention it, she had no other thoughts except hating the Wang family.

Meng Huaiqing didn't have any other intentions when he took the initiative to mention it, and Qin Xiang was even less likely to say anything.

Meng Huaiqing pondered for a moment and said, "Are all these thoughts of yours because of your previous marriage?"

"Yes and no," Qin Xiang explained, "maybe because I've seen more and understood more, so I have such a feeling."

Meng Huaiqing nodded, "There are not many women like you. Just like you said, the secular world has been like this for a long time, so it's not easy to change the public's ideas. Women's ideas are not easy to change, and men's are not easy to change either."

Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, so not getting married and having children will ensure safety."

Hearing this, Meng Huaiqing was stunned, and then laughed, "This statement is fresh, and I agree with your idea, but people live in the world for so long, and it's inevitable that they will be lonely if they walk alone for a long time. It's easier to have someone to accompany you, don't you think?"

Qin Xiang looked at him, and her eyes were still meeting Meng Huaiqing's gentle and soft eyes, but for some reason, she felt that there were stars in this man's eyes, shining brightly.

"So."

She suddenly felt a little expectant.

Meng Huaiqing said, "So, for men and women, marriage is always a natural thing after falling in love. Before that, there is a word called dating. Mainland Chinese call this dating. No one stipulates that you must get married after dating, don't you think so?"

Right?

That is love without the purpose of marriage.
