Chapter 241

There was nothing that could be done without Meng Huaiqing, but since Ge Lijuan had decided to settle in the capital, Meng Huaiqing's base would have to move here, and he would spend more time in the mainland.

After a brief sigh, Qin Xiang got on the car and went directly to Qin Baotian's place.

Perhaps because they knew about Tanaka Mei's situation in advance, Qin Yang and Qin Juan were also here. Qin Xiang told them everything about meeting them, "Now mom has gone to find the second brother, and wants him to raise them. We need to discuss how to deal with this matter. Should we raise them or not?" Raising them or

not is a difficult question. Thinking about the wicked children of Qin Jun and his wife, no one is willing to lend a hand. But children are children after all. The older one is not even nine years old, and they are sensible. If they really leave them alone, they will not be able to get over it.

Qin Baotian is probably the most difficult one. After all, they are his grandsons. Now he is struggling with whether to go back and raise the two children.

Qin Yang frowned and said, "You can't go back. If you go back, you will probably be tied up for the rest of your life."

Tied by whom?

Of course, it was Lian Fengying, their mother.

Qin Baotian sat on the sofa with his head in his arms and sighed. It had only been a few days since the good days and something like this happened again. God couldn't bear to see him well.

Qin Xiang thought for a while and said, "I have an idea, I wonder if you can accept it."

The father and his two sons all looked at Qin Xiang, "You tell me."

Qin Xiang said, "We have no obligation to raise the two children, but we can give mom living expenses for her old age. Let's go back and talk to her about the issue of old-age support, and in the future, our brothers and sisters will give her living expenses on time every month. As for whether she spends the money on herself or the children, we don't care."

When she said this, everyone understood. Lian Fengying was not too old, and she could work while the children were in school. Moreover, Lian Fengying was sincere to Qin Jun, so she would naturally treat the two children well. If they gave her money, she would definitely raise the two children.

Qin Juan nodded, "I agree."

She looked at Qin Yang, "Third brother, what do you think?"

Qin Yang frowned and thought for a while and said, "I have a question, what if mom doesn't want to raise the child herself, but wants us to raise him? You know, the education in the capital is much better than in my hometown. She only has so much money to raise the child, it's not as easy as letting us raise him."

After he finished speaking, everyone was silent for a while. To be honest, even though she was his biological mother, he still hated them.

Qin Baotian stood up and said, "Then I'll go back."

"No." The three brothers and sisters stopped him in unison.

Qin Xiang said angrily, "Your return may be exactly what she wants. She is waiting for you to return. Once you return, we brothers and sisters will have to return to see you, and we will be entangled with that side in the future."

She had made it clear before that her biological mother did not want her, and her biological elder brother did not want her either. Why did she return? Was she to let them take advantage of her and suck her blood?

Once a person has a weakness, it is easy to compromise. Qin Baotian is their father, and returning becomes their weakness. When Lian Fengying comes to them to make various requests, will they agree or not?

Qin Baotian sighed, "What should we do then?"

Qin Xiang said, "We will pay for the child's tuition, and we will not care about the rest. We will only pay for her living expenses. She can raise her if she wants to, or throw her away if she doesn't want to. It has nothing to do with us."

Although the words were cold and ruthless, no one wanted to be involved with them again.

She snorted coldly, "Who knows if it was a scheme they came up with, waiting for us to fall into it."

Even so, it was right to give the old man maintenance fees, and none of the four brothers and sisters needed the money.

After discussing it, they decided to give five yuan per person per month, which added up to twenty yuan a month. After deducting the tuition, it was enough for the three of them.

Qin Xiang did what he said, and called Qin Hai immediately. Qin Hai also agreed with the plan, so Qin Hai wrote a maintenance agreement and asked him to talk to Lian Fengying about it on his behalf.

Qin Xiang instructed, "Second brother, tell her directly that she should be given 20 yuan a month as pension, and we will give it as long as she lives. If she disagrees, we will not care and will not give her a penny. Whatever happens to the child has nothing to do with us. The family has been divided. If someone wants to scold someone, they should scold the child's parents for being unruly and the child's grandmother for causing trouble in the family."

"I understand. I'll do it."

Qin Hai himself could not write a support agreement, but he had a lawyer friend who went to the other party to help write an agreement. Anyway, the meaning was written in, and the 5 yuan a month was also written in.

On the day he got it, Qin Hai went to Qinjiatun to find Lian Fengying.

Qinjiatun has been discussing the matter of Tian Zhongmei running away for the past few days. Qin Hai only found out now that Lian Fengying also took the two children to Tian Zhongmei's parents' home to look for her, but they said they couldn't find her. They didn't know whether she didn't go back or was hidden by the Tian family.

The two children followed Lian Fengying and heard that Lian Fengying cried at home every day and scolded the Qin family for being heartless. The two children didn't go to school either, and they were sad and panicked at home every day.

To be honest, Qin Hai is more concerned about himself in this regard, and he really doesn't feel anything about what others do.

After listening to some gossip for a while, he went straight to find Secretary Qin and told him what they meant. "The four of us brothers and sisters will give five yuan each month, twenty yuan a month. In addition, my father loves his grandson, so he will give ten yuan a month as living expenses for the two of them until Qin Jun gets out. We have written it down clearly. You are the secretary of our village, please take a look and then show it to the elders of our Qin family."

Secretary Qin thought it was very good after listening to it. He took it and took a look. Every clause was written clearly in it, in triplicate. The part belonging to Qin Hai and his side had been signed and fingerprinted by Qin Hai on their behalf.

Secretary Qin smiled, "So formal."

"It has to be informal." Qin Hai smiled, "We have to be careful when dealing with a mother like that. We have separated, and our relationship with Qin Jun and the others is not good, and we have cut off contact. Logically, it is none of our business what happens to their children, but mom is still our mother. Even if she is not old now, we should take care of her. As for who she spends the money on, we don't care."

Secretary Qin nodded, "You are already very good. Whose family can give so much money for support? Together with the 30 yuan your father gives, it is almost the salary of a worker. How can you spend so much in the countryside? It's enough, more than enough."

Since they have already discussed it, Secretary Qin can't say anything. He can't just say don't care, nor can he ask them to raise the child. That's not appropriate.

Secretary Qin took several elderly members of the Qin family to look for Lian Fengying.

Lian Fengying was wiping her tears at home, and when she saw Qin Hai, she felt like she had seen a savior, "Second brother, are you willing to raise a child?"

Qin Hai's face immediately fell, and Secretary Qin and several old people's faces also looked unhappy, "Fengying, what you said is inappropriate. Qin Hai has already started a family and a career. The child is not without a father and a mother. Does he need to raise her?"

Although Lian Fengying is not very clear-headed, she can tell who is powerful. She dared to make trouble with the child because she felt that the child was born by her and should listen to her. But when she met the village chief and the uncles of the Qin family, she was very scared again. She shrank her neck and said, "What can we do? We can't let the children starve to death."

An elder of the Qin family was immediately angry, "Their father will be out in two years, and you are still alive. Just hold on for two years."

Lian Fengying began to mutter again, "The soldier is useless, how can we raise him..."

Hearing this, Qin Hai wanted to sneer, "He is useless, so we have to raise the child. There are so many useless people in this world, so they have to be raised by rich people?"

Lian Fengying said nothing.

But her attitude made people very uncomfortable.

Qin Hai really couldn't stay for a minute. If it weren't for the fact that others couldn't come back, he really didn't want to come. In the past, I thought he was fine in the county town, far away, but now he is the closest one, and I am sick of him going to see him often.

It seems that he has to do some work for his father-in-law and others and hurry to the provincial capital. Anyway, the two old people have retired and it won't delay anything.

Qin Hai glanced at Secretary Qin and said, "Secretary Qin, please tell my mother what we mean."

Lian Fengying immediately became energetic and looked at them expectantly.

Secretary Qin was simply embarrassed. No wonder Qin Baotian wanted to divorce this woman. This woman only has the eldest son in her eyes, and she is waiting to suck the blood of other children to support the eldest son's family.

So Secretary Qin told Lian Fengying about what Qin Hai and his sister had discussed. Lian Fengying was dumbfounded. This was different from what she had imagined. She had imagined that they would be taken to the capital, and the two children would go to school there. She could also enjoy the good life and maybe even live with Qin Baotian.

"Give money? What can twenty or thirty yuan do?"

Lian Fengying started crying, wiping her tears, crying silently.

Secretary Qin's face fell, "Then go out and ask who can give so much pension. One yuan is enough to support them. Now you only give five yuan to one child, plus Qin Baotian gives the child thirty yuan for living expenses, and they also pay the tuition to Qin Jun. What else are you dissatisfied with?"

Lian Fengying didn't say anything, she just cried.

Qin Hai looked grim, "If you don't agree, forget it. If you have the guts, go to the capital and ask them in person. Don't think about making trouble with me. Even if I have to quit my business, I won't give you a penny more."

His words surprised Lian Fengying, "Why are you like this? I am your biological mother. I raised you with my own hands..."

"It is true that you gave birth to us, but it was grandma who raised us." Qin Hai corrected, "You are so focused on Qin Jun. When have you ever paid attention to us?"

Speaking of childhood, Secretary Qin and several elders also knew about the Qin family. Lian Fengying was a confused person. Qin Hai's grandmother saw that the eldest son was raised badly, and the others were determined not to let Lian Fengying raise him.

Facts have proved that the old man's idea is right. Lian Fengying really doesn't know how to raise a child.

Qin Hai sneered, "If you agree, then agree. If you don't agree, you won't get a penny. We don't owe Qin Jun anything. We can take care of you in your old age and give all the money to the village. We can guarantee you food and drink, but we won't take care of your children. You can decide for yourself which of the two methods to choose."

Several women nearby also followed suit to persuade him, and Secretary Qin also advised.

At the door, Cui Hong's mother yelled, "Sister-in-law, isn't your Qin Xiang a big boss? Big bosses don't care about their own mothers and nephews. If it were you, you should go and make trouble. Aren't you a college student? Go to the school to make trouble."

Secretary Qin turned around, "Shut up."

Cui Hong's mother smiled, "I'm telling the truth."

Qin Hai turned around and looked at her, walked quickly to her, raised his hand and slapped her in the face. Cui Hong's mother staggered, "You dare to hit me?"

Just as she was about to resist, she met Qin Hai's murderous eyes and trembled, "Bah, you have no conscience. If I had such an unfilial son, I would strangle him to death."

Qin Hai slapped him again.

Although it is not good for men to hit women, some people are too foul-mouthed and never say a good word, and he really can't stand it.

Secretary Qin then called out, "Qin Hai, don't do it."

"Okay." Qin Hai agreed, and seeing that there were many people watching the excitement at the door, he smiled and said, "No one in our village can compare to you. You gave birth to a daughter who is born lowly and likes to be a mistress. Not only did you hook up with Wang Junsheng, but I heard that you also found several rich men in the capital. I just don't know if Wang Junsheng knows about it."

After she finished speaking, Cui Hong's mother's face changed, "Don't talk nonsense."

Qin Hai mocked, "You have been talking nonsense, but what I said is It's not nonsense. When my sister was taking the college entrance exam two years ago, your daughter deliberately did something bad in the provincial capital and was arrested. Oh, what a good daughter. I heard that she cheated on someone in the capital and was beaten up at home. It's really lively. "

The people who were watching the excitement were shocked to hear such explosive gossip. They said that Cui Hong had never been a quiet person since she was a child. Anyway, they said very unpleasant things.

Cui Hong's mother saw that something was wrong, cried and ran out quickly.

Someone asked Qin Hai, "Qin Hai, is Cui Hong really doing that in the capital?"

Qin Hai raised his eyelids, "If you want to know, just go and see for yourself."

After that, he went straight back to the yard, "Have you thought about it?"

Lian Fengying looked at her second son. She always knew that although the second son looked silent, he was cold-blooded.

She thought for a while and said, "I, I..."

She couldn't make up her mind.

Secretary Qin said, "If you take it, you three mothers can't spend thirty yuan. If you don't, you may not even have thirty yuan in the future."

Qin Hai saw Lian Fengying's little thoughts clearly, and he would not let her succeed. He immediately said, "If you don't agree, forget it, I'm leaving."

He turned around, Lian Fengying held him, "I agree."

The following things were much easier. The signatures and fingerprints were all done under the eyes of the village cadres and the elders of the Qin family.

Then Qin Jun took out the thirty yuan for this month, "I will send you thirty yuan every month in the future. When I'm not here, I will have someone bring it back. When Qin Jun comes out, it will become twenty. Keep it."

The money was paid, and the agreement was filed with Secretary Qin. The matter was done.

Qin Hai didn't want to stay any longer, so he said goodbye to Secretary Qin and the others.

When they were leaving, Qin Nan led Qin Bei to stand at the door of their house and watch. Qin Hai paused, walked over, and asked Qin Nan, "Qin Nan, you will be nine years old soon. Second uncle asks you, do you think your grandma and your mom are right?"

The younger Qin Bei didn't understand. Qin Nan looked at Second Uncle, blinked, and then shook his head, "No."

Qin Hai breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, "You are a little man, protect your younger brother in the future, listen more, watch more, learn more, and grow up to be a man who understands "A polite, law-abiding and upright person."

Qin Nan nodded, "Second uncle, I will. I will also take good care of my younger brother, and I will pay you and aunt back in the future."

Qin Hai was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed, "You are wrong, we only give you some tuition fees, and the living expenses are the pension we give to your grandmother, which has nothing to do with you. Don't worry about these things, just take care of yourself and your younger brother, don't go astray, don't be like your father."

After speaking, Qin Hai left, and Qin Nan looked at his second uncle, thinking about something. Seeing

the lively people, he couldn't have any other feelings towards the brothers. The children are good children, but it's a pity that they have such parents.

When Secretary Qin returned home and talked about it with his wife, he said, "Sometimes I think it would be better for Qin Jun and his wife to die, so that they would not drag down the two children. Seeing that the two children are sensible, other people are probably willing to help the children and raise them to adulthood."

His wife looked at him and said, "Just wait and see. When the children grow up, they still have to take care of Qin Jun. Maybe Tian Zhongmei will come back by then, and the two children will have a hard time."

The two couldn't help but sigh. This was also something that could not be helped. They couldn't ask Qin Xiang and others to raise the children. It didn't make sense. The current practice was pretty good, and no one could say no. Many people in the village envied Lian Fengying. They could get 30 yuan a month without doing anything. How much money did they see in a year?

After finishing the matter, Qin Hai returned to the county and called the capital to tell them.

Qin Xiang said, "I'm sorry to bother you, second brother. I'll pay for the tuition of the two children before Qin Jun comes out."

Qin Hai was not happy, "We agreed to pay together, so don't pay it alone."

The tuition was not much these days, so Qin Xiang did not argue.

After going to Qin Baotian to tell him about the matter, Qin Baotian finally gave up the idea of ​​going back.

Seeing that the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was approaching, Qin Hai calculated the time and prepared to go to Guangzhou, so he continued to take the back door and took a plane there. This time he brought He Liping, Mi Hongjun and Zhao Ping with him. Mi Hongjun would also have to meet with Wu Gang later.

When they got there, Wu Gang drove a gasoline-powered tricycle to pick them up. Qin Xiang sat in the back car and laughed, "Thank goodness the weather is warm here, otherwise it would be so cold."

Wu Gang laughed, "I want to buy a car, but it's hard to buy one. I have no choice but to let you go."

Qin Xiang said nonchalantly, "It's not an injustice."

When they arrived at the Yimei Clothing Factory, they found that the factory had changed a lot. The factory area had expanded, and Wu Gang had added a new production line. Qin Xiang was surprised, "You just started it?"

"Yes, it has only been a few days since it was brought here." Wu Gang touched the new machine and grinned from ear to ear. "Boss Qin, this is the confidence you gave me. All my income this year has been invested in it. Whether I can make money in the future depends on you."

Although this was a joke, it was also true. Qin Xiang was Wu Gang's biggest customer.

Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay, I came here this time just to place an order."

Several people entered the house, and Wu Gang called Jiao Junxi over. When Jiao Junxi saw Qin Xiang, his eyes lit up, and he was obviously waiting for Qin Xiang to come.

Qin Xiang then told him about the Capital Fashion Exhibition. "It's said to be the largest in the country. I asked around and it's true. It's in the convention center over there, with three floors and a very large area. Registration will start in two days. I want to ask if you guys are going."

Wu Gang didn't even think about it. "Yes, I will definitely go."

Qin Xiang nodded. "Then let's discuss the issue of bringing goods."

Just like Xiang Yanghong, they can't bring the products that Qin Xiang manufactures for them. She doesn't care about the products that Qin Xiang supplies to them. Wu Gang doesn't think it's a big deal because he has his own designers. Jiao Junxi is a highly productive designer and the factory has no shortage of new styles of clothes.

Qin Xiang smiled. "Then we'll meet in the capital."

Then they talked about the issue of ordering.

On the way here, Qin Xiang took Mi Hongjun and He Liping to calculate the inventory of each branch. Now, when placing an order, just quote the number and style.

Jiao Junxi finally waited for Qin Xiang to come, and then took out his design draft to discuss the summer style with Qin Xiang.

Qin Xiang looked at the designs on Jiao Junxi's notebook and couldn't help but blush, because there were really too many.

Although there are some shortcomings, most of them are very good, and they are also very good in Guangzhou.

Jiao Junxi said embarrassedly, "I usually have nothing to do, so I do design."

Qin Xiang smiled and said, "You are a pure designer, and I am at most a businessman and designer, we are not comparable."

Jiao Junxi blushed, "It's different."

Wu Gang beside him laughed, "You two are both amazing people. No one wants clothes produced without design, no matter how good the quality is."

"But there is nothing to do without good production machines."

They complement each other, just like Wu Gang and Jiao Junxi, one in charge of design and technology, and the other in charge of sales and management, complementing each other.

After talking with Wu Gang and the others, and looking at the spirit of the workers in the factory, Qin Xiang took them back to Guangzhou. It was

a good idea to go to Guangzhou and not see old friends. Guan Zhibin was her first friend. She was very grateful to him when she first came to Guangzhou. Although they could no longer cooperate because Guan Zhihong was transferred, they had a pleasant cooperation before that.

In the business world, one more friend means one more way out. Qin Xiang went to Shisanhang without saying hello.

But when she got there, she found that the stall that was once crowded with people was empty and the door was closed.

Where is he?
