Chapter 197

Qin Xiang did not object to her father looking for a second love. If he could find someone who shared the same feelings with him, it was not impossible to start a family. After all, he was not too old, and his children were grown up and married. He would inevitably be lonely.

But it was not their place to interfere in what kind of woman he would find.

Her father had not been very selective in finding a wife before, and she hoped that when he was old and looking for a companion, he would be able to open his eyes and find a suitable one.

Just as she was thinking about it, Qin Baotian came over from behind, and the two old ladies called out, "Qin Baotian."

Qin Baotian smiled politely at them, then walked over to sit next to Qin Xiang, "How is it?"

This was to ask Qin Xiang how he played the erhu.

Qin Xiang nodded and praised, "You play very well, very cheerfully. Many people say you play well."

Seeing the two people talking, the two old ladies at the back were embarrassed. It seemed that they knew each other. They talked about Qin Baotian for a long time without paying attention to others. At first, they were wondering what the two girls were looking at, but it turned out that they were looking at them.

"Old Qin, who is this..."

Qin Baotian smiled politely, "This is my daughter, and the ones over there are also my daughter and niece."

The old lady was even more embarrassed, and hurriedly stood up and said, "I remember I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

The other one followed, "I'll go see if there's anything I can help with."

After the people left, Qin Xiang couldn't help but chuckle.

Qin Baotian was puzzled. "What are you laughing at? Is my performance funny?"

Qin Xiang quickly stopped talking. "No, I just think it's funny."

But if she really asked her to say it, she would be a little embarrassed to say it. And she also saw that her father didn't seem to have any other intentions towards the two old ladies, and his attitude was normal, so forget it, let's not say it.

"Watch the show." Meng Huaiqing said.

The show ended at twelve o'clock, and the family went to eat. Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and Qin Xiang and his family are not going to go out.

Qin Xiang said to Qin Baotian, "We won't go to eat together in the evening. We just ate together last night. It's a celebration in advance. We will celebrate by ourselves in the evening."

Qin Baotian didn't force this. The child is grown up and has his own ideas. Besides, he is not complete, so it's the same thing. "Okay, you celebrate by yourselves, I will celebrate with your sister and others."

Qin Xiang couldn't go out in the afternoon either, because he had to distribute benefits to employees.

Of course, rice, flour, grain, and oil had to be distributed in line with the trend. Of course, Qin Xiang preferred to distribute red envelopes. She felt that distributing red envelopes was the most practical thing.

Meng Huaiqing also had to go to his unit to distribute benefits to employees, so the two of them separated.

Qin Xiang was stuffing red envelopes at the storefront, and it was already afternoon when she finished.

The wholesale city had already closed, and the storefront also closed early.

Everyone gathered on the second floor. Qin Xiang briefly talked about the situation this year, and praised several store managers and employees by name, and then started distributing red envelopes.

The employees were at one level, the store managers were at another level, Miao Xiaofeng and a few others outside were also at another level, and Tan Xiu and Mi Hongjun as management were at another level.

Qin Xiang handed out red envelopes one by one, and said a few words of encouragement to the clerks and the store manager.

Everyone was smiling, and they were even more amazed after opening the red envelopes.

Each clerk got 50 yuan, the store manager got 150 yuan, and Miao Xiaofeng and her friends were still out of town. Although they received red envelopes, they had to wait until they came back to give them, so each of them got 200 yuan.

Mi Hongjun and Tan Xiu each got 300 yuan.

Mi Hongjun and Tan Xiu blushed with excitement.

It was a huge sum of money, and they felt rich instantly.

The two have already started to calculate their savings to see if they can buy a house. Even if it is not enough now, there will definitely be some after the Chinese New Year, which is still a considerable amount.

Qin Xiang saw that they had finished looking around, and then said, "A group of commercial houses are being built in the suburbs. It's a project of Mr. Meng. I can get a few quotas. If any of you want to buy one, I can help. But it's limited to your own use. If you want to buy it for others, forget it, but don't ask me for it."

She really wanted to solve the accommodation problem for the employees, but her current ability did not allow it. Now that she has the conditions, she would help as much as she can.

But the employees also have their own concerns. Some of them feel that they will not live with them before they get married, so it is impossible for them to buy a house for themselves.

After the meeting, Tan Xiu and Mi Hongjun asked her

about whether the houses in the suburbs are good, and whether they will be difficult to sell in the future if they want to change.

Qin Xiang was helpless and analyzed to them, "Think about how fast the capital is developing now. The area inside the city is so small, so it must be developed towards the suburbs. Although it is a suburb, it is close to the city, and its future development may not be worse than that of the city. And I just happened to have this opportunity, so I asked you. If you are interested in buying it, go and ask around, and I will come forward with an internal price."

In fact, she also thought of the problems that the employees would encounter. Some local girls may still have their wages in the hands of their parents. Some of them may not be able to live in the house even if they really buy it, and may give it to their brothers. It is better not to buy it.

As for Mi Hongjun and Tan Xiu, they can make their own decisions now. If they buy a house, they will have confidence and support in the future. Tan Xiu and Miao Xiaofeng can also slowly take root in the capital.

Qin Xiang said earnestly, "The price of this house will definitely go up in the future, so it's better to hurry up than late. You can take a look first. If you don't have the money, I can lend it to you and you can pay it back slowly in the future."

After saying this, if the two of them still don't understand what Qin Xiang means, then they are really fools.

Qin Xiang really thinks this house is good and hopes that they can buy it, so she said this.

The two looked at each other, "Okay, we'll go over and take a look in the next two days and give you an answer."

Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay."

After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Please help me see if there are any large apartments in that area. If they are suitable, please ask about the area and I'll go take a look later."

Hearing her words, the two were delighted, "You want to buy one too?"

Qin Xiang smiled, "Who can complain about having too many houses? Even if I go bankrupt in the future, I won't starve to death as a landlord collecting rent."

"Come on, you're really joking." Tan Xiu didn't believe this. Qin Xiang had the ability to make it big. But the boss thought it was good, and she felt that she should really consider buying a house.

But she also had to talk to Miao Xiaofeng, who also wanted to buy one.

After they finished talking, the two of them left. Qin Xiang saw that it was still early, so she wanted to go pick up Meng Huaiqing.

Qin Xiang said to Zhao Ping, "Brother Zhao, today is Mid-Autumn Festival, you have a day off, and tomorrow will also be a day off, go out and take a walk, and take the house matter to heart, and see if you buy it, I will make up for the shortfall."

Zhao Ping remained silent, like a transparent person next to her.

He was good at his work and a steady person, and Qin Xiang didn't want to treat him badly.

Zhao Ping heard this and said, "I'll take you there first before I go on vacation."

Qin Xiang didn't refuse, "Okay."

The two took a taxi there. On the way, Qin Xiang sighed, "I still have to have my own car."

The driver driving in front glanced at her from the rearview mirror and said, "Girl, you are a rich person. Buying a car is not something that ordinary people can afford."

Qin Xiang was stunned when she heard this, and immediately laughed, "I just said it casually, but you took it seriously. As you said, buying a car is not something that ordinary people can buy. Do you think I look like a rich person?"

The driver was stunned by this and smiled awkwardly without saying anything.

When they got to the place, Qin Xiang paid and got off the car. Zhao Ping said, "This driver has bad eyesight."

Qin Xiang did not comment, "It has nothing to do with us, as long as we don't get into trouble."

Qin Xiang said, "I'm going in, you can take another taxi back."

Zhao Ping agreed, and watched Qin Xiang go in before turning around and leaving, but he did not take a taxi, but took the bus.

After Qin Xiang went in, she was warmly received by the people in the office.

Now almost everyone in the office knows that Qin Xiang is their boss's girlfriend.

Although they are not married, the two have a stable relationship. Even the daughter of the city government leader is not favored by the boss. It can be seen how much their boss likes this Miss Qin.

Qin Xiang said politely, "Is your boss still busy?"

Pi Lan said hurriedly, "The boss is holding a meeting for the management. It has been a while, and it will probably be over soon."

Qin Xiang sighed, "It's a big holiday, but you don't hurry up to take a holiday and drag people to a meeting. This will invite criticism."

Hearing her muttering, Pi Lan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing, "But our bonuses this year are sufficient, and we are willing to work overtime."

"That's good." Qin Xiang smiled.

As the two were talking, they heard the sound of leather shoes coming over.

The two looked up, and Pi Lan frowned, "Why is she here again?"

Qin Xiang was curious, "Is she an unwelcome person?"

Pi Lan hesitated to speak, not knowing what to say.

Qin Xiang didn't care, and soon someone came to her, and it was really an acquaintance. Isn't this Xiang Li whom I met before? It seems that Meng Huaiqing is also helpless with such people, and here he comes again.

"Where is Mr. Meng?" Xiang Li approached and asked Pi Lan bluntly.

Pi Lan frowned, "Our boss is still in a meeting."

At this time, Xiang Li saw Qin Xiang, and her brows wrinkled, obviously remembering something, "Miss Qin?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Are you calling me?"

Xiang Li sneered, "There are only three people here, are there other people with the surname Qin?"

Qin Xiang smiled, "It's hard to say."

"Let's talk." Xiang Li glanced at the tightly closed door of the conference room and said bluntly, "You don't want to talk to me about Meng Huaiqing here, do you?"

Qin Xiang shook her head, "No, I don't mind, we can talk here, I'm also very busy, I don't have time to talk with you somewhere else. In addition, I think you don't need to talk to me about Meng Huaiqing's affairs, and you don't need to tell me who he is more suitable for, and who can help. Because I don't think it's necessary, not that I don't need to listen, but Meng Huaiqing doesn't need such help."

After she finished speaking, Xiang Li frowned, "You...how can you say such a thing."

"Then what should I say?" Qin Xiang tilted her head in confusion, "Aren't you trying to tell me the advantages of being with Meng Huaiqing to persuade me to break up with him?"

Xiang Li's face showed an uncomfortable look, and she really thought so.

She was warned by her father twice before, and even tried to send her out of the country, but she survived. She would not give up easily, nor would she compromise.

Meng Huaiqing is such a great man, she has only met one in her life for more than 20 years, how could she give up easily.

Xiang Li said coldly, "Since you know, you should have a bit of foresight and not delay him."

Qin Xiang laughed when she heard it, "It's not appropriate for you to say that. You should tell Meng Huaiqing that if he thinks I delayed him, I can break up with him immediately. But you have been pestering him for so long and have not succeeded, which shows that you are not good enough."

Her tone was playful and sarcastic, which made Xiang Li furious, "Don't be so arrogant."

"Aren't you the one who is arrogant?" Qin Xiang laughed. "Judging from the way you dress, you come from a good family. How come in a family like yours, haven't the elders taught you not to destroy other people's feelings? You did it yourself and are you afraid that others will say you are arrogant? It's your business if you like to be arrogant, and it's also your business if you want to pester others, but don't make me uncomfortable in front of me, you are so capable."

Qin Xiang has never been a good-tempered person, and she is not used to the so-called eldest lady.

Meng Huaiqing also said that Xiang Li's father has a high position, but he is not a man who dotes on his daughter. He is a very strict person, so she is not afraid of being targeted by the Xiang family if she annoys Xiang Li.

After Qin Xiang finished speaking, Xiang Li's chest heaved and she was almost angry to death.

At this time, the door of the conference room opened.

Meng Huaiqing came out with a file bag under his arm. He called out coldly, "Miao Sheng."

Miao Sheng hurried over. When he saw Xiang Li, he knew that things were not going well. "Boss, I'll handle it right away."

After that, he called the security guard over and said, "Please ask this lady to leave. We don't welcome her here. If anyone lets someone in again in the future, don't do it here."

After that, the two security guards stepped forward and said, "Miss Xiang, please don't make things difficult for us."

Xiang Li looked at Meng Huaiqing in disbelief. Miao Sheng was Meng Huaiqing's closest subordinate. It was almost as if Miao Sheng meant what Meng Huaiqing said. "Huaiqing..."

Meng Huaiqing turned a deaf ear to him, changed his face, and smiled gently in front of Qin Xiang, "You've been waiting for a long time. Let's go to the office to rest. I'll pack up and leave right away."

Qin Xiang smiled and replied, "Okay."

Meng Huaiqing heaved a sigh of relief, took Qin Xiang's hand and went straight into the office. Xiang Li's chest was heaving, and she wanted to tear the two hands apart.

Miao Sheng shouted, "What are you still standing there for?"

As soon as the words fell, the two security guards directly dragged Xiang Li out.

Now Xiang Li had lost all her face.

Pi Lan thought to herself: I have lost face, I guess she won't come again in the future? After

entering the office, Meng Huaiqing apologized, "I'm sorry, I said I would deal with it, but she came to you again."

He couldn't help but feel annoyed, and even had the idea of ​​ending the project. He had already talked frankly with Xiang Li's father about this matter, and Xiang Li's father had promised to send the person abroad, but he didn't expect that the person hadn't left yet.

It is estimated that she wanted to come to him during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Qin Xiang smiled, "Is it my bad luck?"

Meng Huaiqing was helpless and felt guilty. He had promised to handle it the last two times, but the man still came over. "Sorry, I didn't handle it well."

Qin Xiang didn't think it was Meng Huaiqing's fault on this point. If he had to say he was wrong, it was because he was so good, so good that a woman had to stick to him regardless of her face.

These days are not feudal society, and parents can completely lock their children at home. Nowadays, society is much more open, and free love is emphasized. People just have to stick to you, what else can you do except refuse?

Let Meng Huaiqing give up cooperation with the government?

Even if Meng Huaiqing wants to do this, Qin Xiang does not agree.

The dog-skin plaster has been put on, and whether they cooperate or not will be put on. I'm afraid that even her parents at home can't control such a woman.

Qin Xiang shook her head, "Forget it, let's not talk about this. Where are we going tonight?"

Meng Huaiqing thought for a while and said, "Go to Lao Mo?"

"No." It was at Lao Mo that Xiang Li met last time.

Meng Huaiqing said again, "Then let's cook for ourselves when we get home?"

Qin Xiang didn't have a good idea either. After thinking for a while, she said, "You cook?"

Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Okay, I'll cook, but you have to direct me from the side, otherwise I won't be responsible if the food is inedible."

"It doesn't matter. If it doesn't taste good, you can eat it all by yourself, and I'll go out for a big meal."

As soon as the voice fell, the two couldn't help laughing.

The sound insulation of the house at this time was not good, and the laughter was too cheerful, so people outside could hear it.

Several secretaries in the secretariat were already preparing to get off work, and they whispered to each other when they heard the noise.

"That Xiang Li is really shameless. She keeps coming even though our boss has rejected her so much."

"That's right. I used to think Xiang Li was quite good, but she pales in comparison with our boss's girlfriend. I heard that our boss's girlfriend is a self-employed person. She doesn't look like that." "

You must not know that his girlfriend is a top student at Tsinghua University. I heard from Miao Jingli that she is the top science student in Shandong Province. She is amazing." "Then

there is no more drama for Xiang Li. Doesn't she just rely on her parents?"

"Alas, we can't compare to her."

"Come to think of it, why haven't the boss and his girlfriend gotten married if they have such a good relationship?"

"Could it be like the rumors outside that the big family in Hong Kong City has strict requirements and does not allow his girlfriend to come in?"

After listening for a long time, Pi Lan could not help but said, "You guys are done, what happened to them has nothing to do with us, be careful not to let Manager Miao know about it or we will be in trouble."

The others stuck out their tongues and said, "It was just a casual remark."

But no one mentioned this matter anymore, but instead talked about the Mid-Autumn Festival benefits given out during this festival. Their boss is really rich and generous, giving out fifty yuan at once.

Employees left work one after another, and Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing packed up their things and prepared to go out.

Outside, Miao Sheng arranged all the work responsibly, and asked about the next arrangements when he saw them come out.

Meng Huaiqing said, "Although I really want to give you a holiday, I still have something to entrust to you now."

Miao Sheng hurriedly said, "I don't need a holiday."

"Okay, starting tomorrow, you go to the Xiangai store and take Qin Xiang's father, sister and niece out for a walk, visit the attractions in the capital, and arrange all the delicious and fun things. Qin Xiang will reimburse you for all the expenses."

Miao Sheng was immediately confused. What? Let him go out to play with Qin Xiang's father, sister and niece?

In other words, is he honoring his future father-in-law and sister-in-law on behalf of his boss? It seems like

a very important job.

Miao Sheng nodded, "Okay, boss, I get it."

Meng Huaiqing looked at Qin Xiang, "Is there anything wrong with my arrangement?"

"It's good." Especially when he heard Meng Huaiqing say that all the expenses would be paid by her, he felt even more relieved. It was indeed appropriate for her to pay for it.

Of course, Qin Xiang felt embarrassed to take up other people's vacation time for nothing, and hurriedly added, "I give Mr. Miao fifty yuan a day as an additional subsidy, after all, I took up your vacation time."

Miao Sheng was shocked and waved his hand, "No, just consider it as my apology for my previous impoliteness."

After that, Miao Sheng bowed slightly and turned to arrange other things.

Qin Xiang couldn't help sighing as she watched him running around in a hurry, "I suddenly feel like a vicious mistress in the old society. Look how scared I am."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Meng Huaiqing looking at her strangely. Qin Xiang was surprised, "What's wrong?"

Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Mistress."

Qin Xiang smiled, "Let me make a metaphor."

Meng Huaiqing also smiled, "This metaphor makes people think too much."

"Then you stand here and think for a while, I'll go out and wait for you." Qin Xiang said and went out.

At this time, everyone in the office had gone off work and the whole building was quiet. Qin Xiang went downstairs and heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and chuckled, "Boss Meng, have you finished your thoughts?"

"Of course." Meng Huaiqing had no other emotions. He reached out and held her hand and said, "Beautiful Ms. Qin Xiang, how about we go back to have dinner and then go to the movies together?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay."

The two of them just walked out of the door and took a car back. Before they took two steps after getting off the car, a figure suddenly appeared and knelt in front of Qin Xiang with a sound.
