Chapter 91
Qin Xiang couldn’t tell right from wrong about this matter. Two days ago, the police from the town police station came to ask about something that happened two years ago.
Although it was two years ago, it was more than 20 years ago for Qin Xiang. She couldn’t remember the details of many issues.
She remembered clearly that the public security comrades said that if there was insufficient evidence, the two people might be criticized and educated in the end, and there would be no major punishment.
After Wang Junsheng left, she thought that the two had been released.
Qin Hai said, “I heard that when she came out of the police station, Tian Zhongmei insisted on making a noise, and as a result, someone from the family planning department saw her belly and forced her to go for a check-up, and then she had an abortion.” Qin
Xiang didn’t know what to say after hearing this. Wasn’t this her own fault?
The police station had released them, but they still dared to make a scene. Were they afraid that others would not notice?
Qin Hai said, "Let's not talk about her. Your second sister-in-law has already resigned. We have also rented the store, but we only rented it for five years. It is now being renovated. When it is finished, we will also have to buy goods and open the canteen."
Qin Xiang was very happy for his second brother and his wife. In this life, his second brother and his wife took this step earlier than in the previous life. "Second brother, you and your second sister-in-law will definitely do a good job. If you need money, don't be polite."
"I will definitely not be polite to you." Qin Hai laughed, "By the way, Dad said that we will set up a banquet in the village in the next few days, Ask if you can go back."
Qin Xiang thought for a while and said, "If I go back, I'm afraid that Tian Zhongmei and mother will make a fuss again. I'll buy some writing and ask my third brother to go back for me, saying that I'm too busy to go."
Qin Hai seemed to have expected this result and was not surprised. "Okay, I'll go back with the third brother then."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiang couldn't help sighing.
People, sometimes they just bring trouble upon themselves. A child who is more than four months old is gone.
Fortunately, she is now adhering to the principle of not getting married and having children to ensure safety, which is indeed true.
The weather in August is still hot and unbearable.
The popularity of Qin Xiang's store is as hot as the weather.
Qin Xiang went back to take inventory, and had no choice but to call Guan Zhibin again, asking him to help order a batch of sportswear from the Huayu Garment Factory, and to ship the clothes from Guan Zhibin over as well.
Guan Zhibin silently calculated the bills, and Qin Xiang probably made more than him.
After calling Guan Zhibin, Qin Xiang called Liu Minhua to chat for a while, and then called the Hangzhou Textile Factory to order various socks, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
It was already mid-August, and after this batch of goods arrived and was arranged, she should go to the capital to prepare for the start of school.
When they returned to the store, Qin Xiang saw He Liping doing the accounting, so she went over to ask her, "Have I asked you to sign up for night school?"
"Yes, I've been attending classes for several days." He Liping smiled, "Sister Xiangxiang, you were too busy and didn't notice me."
Qin Xiang nodded and said embarrassedly, "Indeed I didn't notice you. Don't set up a stall at the night market, just sell directly in the store. You should study hard and improve your academic qualifications, and you will be the accountant of our store in the future."
He Liping nodded hurriedly, "I will definitely do a good job."
Qin Xiang said to the others, "After Liping finishes her studies, you can take turns to sign up. I will pay for all the fees."
Hearing this, Tan Xiu and another clerk were very happy, only Miao Xiaofeng was a little unhappy.
When they returned home at night, Miao Xiaofeng said to Tan Xiu, "You are convinced?"
Tan Xiu was puzzled, "You mean He Liping?"
Miao Xiaofeng pursed her lips, "She came the latest, but she got to register first. Why?"
Hearing this, Tan Xiu couldn't help laughing, "Because she has a good brain and learns quickly."
She looked at Miao Xiaofeng and said, "We were all there when the boss taught us accounting, but we didn't learn as fast as He Liping. Now that you see she registered first, you feel unbalanced. Who can you blame? Go back and blame your parents for not giving you a child. Good brain?"
Being scolded by Tan Xiu, Miao Xiaofeng's eyes were full of tears, "We just entered the store together, why are you so partial to He Liping and look down on me?"
Tan Xiu rolled her eyes, "What's wrong with entering the store together? Why am I partial to He Liping? What does our own incompetence have to do with others? Didn't the boss also say that we will continue to learn after she finishes her studies. Isn't it good for her to try the waters early or late? Why are you trying to stir up trouble here?"
Miao Xiaofeng said nothing for a long while before saying, "It would be great if Brother Yang was our boss."
"If Brother Yang was our boss, you would have no chance to be with him." Tan Xiu said mercilessly, "Since you've mentioned this, I won't hide it from you. I've seen your feelings for Brother Yang for a long time. Brother Yang doesn't bother with you just for the sake of the boss. Do you really think he likes you?"
Miao Xiaofeng hung his head and said nothing. Tan Xiu sighed and said earnestly, "Our boss is a capable man. Brother Yang follows the boss. You will make a lot of money in the future, how could he be interested in someone like us? Besides, we are not the same kind of people. Anyway, I can see that if you still behave like this in the future, our boss will definitely not tolerate you. Although we are not workers, our boss pays us a high salary, and we are much better than workers if we work hard. If you still commit suicide, then I can't help you. "
After saying that, Tan Xiu left directly, and Miao Xiaofeng stood there wiping her tears.
Qin Xiang came out to make a phone call and saw Miao Xiaofeng standing under the street light wiping her tears. Qin Xiang understood a little bit, and went back after thinking about it.
Forget it, the girl also needs face, why embarrass her.
When they returned to the store, He Liping and Mi Hongjun were also preparing to go back to the dormitory to sleep. Qin Xiang asked Mi Hongjun, "Aren't you going to night school?"
"No." Mi Hongjun said, "I'm fine now, why should I go to night school."
Qin Xiang saw that he was righteous and didn't want to say anything to him, "Go and sign up yourself tomorrow, otherwise don't come to my store in the future."
Mi Hongjun immediately felt aggrieved, "Sister Xiangxiang, you think I have low education."
Qin Xiang was speechless, "If you must think so, then go."
Mi Hongjun: "..."
He Liping next to him held back her laughter and pulled him, "Let's go, I told you a long time ago, but you just didn't listen, you deserve it."
After everyone left, Qin Xiang closed the door and prepared to go back to sleep, but at this time a Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of the door. Qin Xiang stopped, thinking she would see Meng Huaiqing coming out, but she saw Miao Sheng coming down instead. He said anxiously, "Miss Qin, this is extremely urgent. I need your help."
Qin Xiang was stunned, "It's so late, why are you here? What help do you need?"
Miao Sheng came closer and bowed directly, "Mr. Meng can't eat now because of his stomach disease, so he wanted to ask Miss Qin to help make some easy-to-digest meals."
Miao Sheng took out an envelope from his handbag and said, "This is a little gift from our master."
Qin Xiang didn't take it, looked at him and said, "Did your Mr. Meng ask you to come?"
Miao Sheng was stunned, "No, I took the initiative." "
Did you take the money too?"
Miao Sheng said with a stiff face, "Yes."
Qin Xiang said, "Oh," Take the money back."
She turned around and was about to go in. Miao Sheng said anxiously, "Miss Qin, please help."
Qin Xiang said without turning back, "Wait."
If it was really Meng Huaiqing who asked Miao Sheng to bring money here today, then he would have to bear the pain himself.
Qin Xiang went upstairs and went straight into the kitchen. Qin Yang came out of the shower and frowned, "What are you doing so late at night?"
Qin Xiang repeated Miao Sheng's words, "Third brother, this is a good opportunity."
"What do you mean?" Qin Yang raised his eyebrows, not thinking this was a good opportunity. Instead, he thought this so-called Hong Kong boss had bad intentions towards his sister.
Qin Xiang didn't know Qin Yang's worries, and turned back and said seriously, "It's a chance to curry favor with someone."
Qin Yang: "???"
"I really believe it." Qin Xiang laughed, "Don't forget, when we were in Guangzhou, we got sportswear at a much lower price because of him. If we can save that much on a batch of goods, how much money can we save in the long run? Besides, we can't just sit there and do nothing for the sake of Master Ge."
Qin Yang frowned, "Don't they all have nannies if they are rich? We can bring our nannies with us."
"A nanny can't follow us all the time." Qin Xiang quickly fried the chopped tomatoes to make soup and poured boiling water on it, then said, "We can only help a little, just as if we are helping our neighbors. Maybe we can buy the house later."
Qin Xiang saw that Qin Yang didn't seem to believe it, so Qin Xiang said, "It's possible. How could a big boss want this small building?"
Qin Yang was silent. The location of this small building was indeed good. Apart from anything else, they got a great deal on the rent.
While the tomato and egg noodles were cooking, Qin Xiang also cooked yam and pumpkin porridge.
He also picked up some pickled cucumber from the pot, put it in the lunch box, and carried it out.
Qin Xiang handed the basket over and said, "Tell Mr. Meng that we are neighbors and it is only natural for us to help each other. Don't be so polite."
"Thank you." Miao Sheng was so moved that he bowed again before getting in the car and driving away.
Qin Xiang looked at the time and saw that it was already past eleven o'clock. She was really sleepy.
Go to sleep, your life is more important.
It was three days later that I saw Meng Huaiqing again. Meng Huaiqing got off the car and went straight to the store. He handed over the bag in his hand, "It's a small thank-you gift. I hope you won't refuse it."
Qin Xiang looked at the box and knew that she didn't want to owe her a favor, so she accepted it. "It's just a small favor. Don't mind it."
Meng Huaiqing was obviously relieved to see that she didn't refuse. After thinking for a while, he said, "Your cooking skills are very good."
"Thank you." Qin Xiang's cooking skills are of course good. In her previous life, she learned to cook in order to make money. She also worked as a nanny for others. No one said that her cooking was not delicious.
Qin Juan's cooking skills are quite good, but every time she eats the food cooked by Qin Xiang, she still thinks it is delicious.
At this time, a customer came to the door, and his eyes unconsciously looked at Meng Huaiqing.
Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Then I'll go to my uncle's place first, and we'll talk when I have time."
Qin Xiang smiled and sent the person out, "Okay."
When she came back, the customer asked curiously, "Is that your boyfriend?"
Qin Xiang was stunned and shook her head quickly, "No, he's the nephew of Mr. Ge next door. I just helped him once, so he came to thank me."
"But this guy looks very handsome, and the car at the door is also his? Could he be a nouveau riche?" The customer was also a talkative person, and gossiped, "Boss Qin, why don't you give it a try, you two look like a couple when you stand together."
Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and waved her hands repeatedly, "Don't talk nonsense, you are not from the same world." She
had just finished joking when she suddenly noticed a gaze from outside. She looked up and met Meng Huaiqing's gaze.
Meng Huaiqing smiled and went in, but Qin Xiang felt a little embarrassed because of what the customer said, "Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, I will be a college student soon, and I can't get married during college."
But Qin Xiang said it firmly, but several customers in the store didn't believe it.
A woman who brought her child to buy sportswear laughed and said, "How can a woman not get married? No matter how strong she is, she will have a family and a man to love her sooner or later, otherwise she will be so lonely."
Qin Xiang smiled and didn't argue.
Because she knew that arguing was useless, most people have this view.
But think about it carefully, is it really like this?
Like these young girls in their twenties in the store, they can buy whatever they want with their own money and dress themselves up beautifully. Will they be willing to do that after they get married? The elder sister who just spoke has a child in her teens. In fact, she herself is not even forty, but she dresses very old-fashioned. Her clothes are still the styles from a few years ago and have become a little gray after being washed.
So Qin Xiang didn't understand why she wanted to get married and end her happy days to serve a whole family. Just to find someone who loves her?
Qin Xiang does not refuse to fall in love, but marriage is out of the question. There is no need for it in the short term.
At this time, Qin Yang also followed Qin Hai back to Qinjiatun.
As soon as they entered the village, the two brothers saw Qin Jun standing by the road.
"Where is Qin Xiang."
