Chapter 141
No one can tell the exact day of departure. Meng Huaiqing is currently involved in a government project. According to the current situation in the country, he may not stop working even during the Chinese New Year. Meng Huaiqing naturally has to complete the handover of his current work before he can leave.
Qin Xiang is also very busy. In addition to preparing for the exam, she also has things to do in the store. The last batch of goods just arrived in the past two days. The business in the wholesale city should come to an end by the middle of December when she goes on vacation at the latest. The last time is for the storefront, and it is possible that it will be open until the Chinese New Year.
But Qin Xiang had other ideas, and wanted to make some money before the New Year.
She looked at Meng Huaiqing and said, "Have a good trip then?"
Unexpectedly, Meng Huaiqing took the opportunity to make a request, "Let's have a meal together before we leave?"
After all, he had just helped her, so Qin Xiang couldn't say no, so she nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll treat you then, and you decide what to eat."
Meng Huaiqing said, "Why don't you cook for yourself?"
Qin Xiang frowned slightly, "It's cold in winter, I don't want to move."
"I'll wash and cut the vegetables."
Qin Xiang laughed and said, "Okay, that's no problem."
If she just wants to cook, she has to go to the storefront. Then her father will probably know about it. I hope nothing will happen.
She knew in her previous life that courtyard houses were in high demand, but she didn't expect that they are also hard to buy these days. She asked Mi Hongjun to keep an eye out for them when he was free, but there has been no news for so long.
The two said goodbye, and Meng Huaiqing very gentlemanly sent her back to the dormitory. After watching Qin Xiang go upstairs, Meng Huaiqing slowly left.
Qin Xiang ran into Bei Nannan on the stairs, and Bei Nannan mocked her, "You're so fickle."
Qin Xiang ignored her, and Bei Nannan became even more excited. "One moment you're Instructor He, the next moment you're Mr. Meng. Qin Xiang, you're really amazing. You really don't care about your dignity at all."
"Does it have anything to do with you?" Qin Xiang looked at Bei Nannan calmly and said sarcastically, "Put away your jealous face. I know you are jealous of me, but there is nothing I can do. I am just more attractive than you and attract more men's attention than you."
Bei Nannan glared, "You..."
"What's wrong with me?" Qin Xiang laughed. "Go back and look at yourself in the mirror. You look like a combination of a shrew and a grouchy woman. You can't do anything but be jealous. If I were you, I would just be quiet and stop humiliating myself. Why bother?"
After saying that, Qin Xiang waved her hand and said, "See you later."
Qin Xiang went upstairs, and Bei Nannan was so angry that she stood there and screamed.
The dormitory manager downstairs shouted, "Who is it? What are you yelling about? Are you looking for trouble?"
Bei Nannan calmed down, but her eyes seemed to be spitting fire with jealousy.
Qin Xiang was in a good mood because of Cui Hong's matter, and Cui Hong also finished the investigation and went home.
What greeted her was Cui Lianhua's smelly shoe. Cui Lianhua said angrily, "How dare you come back?"
"Why should I be ashamed to come back? This is my home." Cui Hong covered her nose and threw her shoes out the door. "I'm so worried, old man. You eat my food and drink my drinks, but you still give me a bad face. Who gave you the face?"
She walked up to Cui Lianhua and said, "If you want to fill your stomach, then behave yourself."
"You! I'm your mother-in-law." Cui Lianhua was timid on the outside, and was stunned when she saw Cui Hong's face. "What's wrong with your face?"
"It's okay, I just fell." Cui Hong turned her face away, not meeting Cui Lianhua's gaze. She had been beaten so badly by Hong Mei and her men that day that there wasn't a scrap of good flesh left on her body, and her face was nearly disfigured. Luckily, the police station gave her some medicine to apply after she went to the police station. Otherwise, she would have been too embarrassed to face anyone.
However, Cui Lianhua didn't really believe Cui Hong's words. Instead, she said with certainty, "You were beaten."
"That's not true." Cui Hong retorted as if someone had stepped on her tail. "Watch your mouths! If you dare to say nonsense and ruin my reputation, I won't forgive you. Besides, I'm your daughter-in-law. If I lose face, you lose face."
This statement was true. Cui Lianhua really looked down upon Cui Hong. After Cui Hong returned to the house, Cui Lianhua muttered to Wang Dazhu, "It looked to me like he was beaten."
Wang Dazhu was calm. "So what if they beat us? Can we do anything about it? I finally understand. The third brother resents us for coming to the capital. Even his own son despises us, let alone his daughter-in-law. Although Cui Hong is harsh in her words, she never said she would not care about our food and drink when she was at home. In this respect, she is better than Junsheng."
The old couple lived on two dollars for a week. Wang Junsheng didn't come back during this week. Poor old man and mother both lost a lot of weight due to hunger. Fortunately, Cui Hong came back.
Wang Dazhu said, "I think they should register."
Cui Lianhua's eyebrows jumped, "Junsheng doesn't like Cui Hong."
"Don't like it?" Wang Dazhu sneered. "Whenever he comes back, the two of them won't make a fuss until midnight. For our future happiness, we have to make this happen. Cui Hong may not be a good person, but her bad habit is her talk. We can control her, but Junsheng can't."
He sighed, "Junsheng's heart has become wild."
The couple reached an agreement. When Cui Hong came out and impatiently took out money for Wang Dazhu to buy food, Cui Lianhua said, "Cui Hong, it's not easy for you to do this for this family. I discussed it with your father and he agreed to let you and Junsheng register. We will discuss this matter when he comes back."
Cui Hong frowned. That was great. As long as they registered, they would be a legal couple. She would be Mrs. Wang in the rightful sense of the word, and the wife of the richest man at that.
Cui Hong was so happy that she took out a few more dollars and said, "Dad, buy some meat. Look at how thin you and Mom are. I feel so bad for you."
Although they suffered a lot following Sun Qiang, they also received a lot of money before that, which was enough for them to spend for a while.
The two old guys are not completely useless.
The three of them inexplicably reached an agreement. Cui Hong was not in a hurry to go out, and she wanted to heal her wounds first. In the middle of the night, Wang Junsheng came back, and the old couple also supported him. They cried, made a fuss, and even threatened to hang themselves, forcing Wang Junsheng to agree to get a marriage certificate with Cui Hong. Wang Junsheng said that he couldn't get a marriage certificate before graduation, and he was ready to kill himself if he didn't get a marriage certificate.
Wang Junsheng was helpless and had no choice. Thinking about the difficulties he encountered in school, he was also discouraged, so he went to register with Cui Hong.
But just after they finished registering, they saw a woman and a group of people following them into the house.
The house was rented by Wang Junsheng. It had two rooms in total. Wang Junsheng and Cui Hong lived in the inner room, while the old couple slept on the floor in the living room.
As soon as the visitors entered the room, the leading woman saw Cui Hong who was eating and said, "Call me."
Cui Hong saw who was coming and was immediately startled. "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing?" Hong Mei said disgustedly, "I'm going to beat you. Do you really think that what happened last time is over? I'll beat you as many times as you steal my man."
The men ignored the two elders, let alone Wang Junsheng, and attacked Cui Hong. The wounds that had finally healed were now inflicted with new injuries.
Wang Junsheng was shocked, "Cui Hong, you cheated on me!"
"I didn't." There was no way Cui Hong would admit it. She looked at Wang Junsheng lovingly and defended herself, "Junsheng, you have to believe in my love for you. I overcame all difficulties to be with you. How could I do anything to let you down? This is all a misunderstanding."
Hong Mei didn't care about her explanation. She just left after beating him up, leaving Wang Junsheng with a sarcastic smile before leaving.
Wang Junsheng pursed his lips and said, "I want to divorce you."
They just registered and they divorced.
How could Cui Hong possibly agree to this? She had been beaten badly, and her face was swollen. She said aggrievedly, "I already said it was a misunderstanding. It's fine if others don't believe me, but you actually don't believe me either. It's not true. I won't divorce you."
The two quarreled again. Wang Junsheng insisted on divorce, but Cui Hong naturally disagreed.
Wang Dazhu and Cui Lianhua were dumbfounded and felt guilty, but they didn't dare to get angry about it.
Cui Hong was not a woman who could keep her own will. If she could betray Wang Qingshan for Wang Junsheng, then she might also betray Wang Junsheng for other men.
The old couple shrank their necks and dared not say a word.
Wang Jun was furious and slapped Cui Hong. Seeing Wang Dazhu and Cui Lianhua were also furious, he said, "It's all because of you that I registered with a woman like this. You just want to kill me."
In a rage, Wang Junsheng kicked Wang Dazhu on the leg, causing him to scream in pain. But Wang Junsheng seemed to have found an outlet for his emotions and directly punched the old couple.
"Stop hitting me, stop hitting me, this is your dad."
How could Cui Lianhua possibly block the attack with half of her body paralyzed? She was kicked several times while trying to block it, but the kicks were on the paralyzed side, so the impact was not that strong.
Cui Hong was dumbfounded. Wang Junsheng actually beat his own parents?
The noise was so loud that the neighbor next door reported it to the police. The police took people to the police station to investigate without saying a word. As a result, the family of four changed their statement and said that they did not fight.
No matter whether there are injuries on his face or not, he just refuses to admit it.
Wang Junsheng didn't dare to mention Cui Hong because he felt guilty about beating his parents. Cui Hong was even less able to speak about it, as she had just been released from another police station a few days ago.
In short, it's very lively.
When Qin Xiang went out with Zhao Ping to remit money to Guan Zhihong's factory, they happened to meet the four members of the Wang family limping out of the police station.
Qin Xiang also confronted Wang Junsheng, who was carrying Cui Lianhua on his back.
There is no other way. For safety reasons, the bank is right next to the police station.
It was damn fate that brought them together again.
However, when Qin Xiang saw the Wang family's expressions, she immediately laughed, "Oh, what a coincidence."
She glanced at the police station behind them, intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "I didn't expect your family to like the police station so much. Tsk tsk, do you think the food there is tastier?"
She was too gloating, and the Wang family was in such a mess that she couldn't say a word.
At other times, Wang Junsheng might have wanted to improve his favor, but now, he just wanted to run away.
He came out of the police station in a disheveled outfit, accompanied by his equally disheveled family, looking dusty and grimy. Qin Xiang came out of the bank in a respectable outfit, looking energetic.
It makes them look ugly.
Cui Lianhua was a little scared when she met Qin Xiang. She urged Wang Junsheng, "Junsheng, let's go."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "You have to be careful. If this paralyzed person falls again, it won't be easy for him to recover in the middle of winter."
"Don't be so complacent," Cui Lianhua said angrily. "Qin Xiang, you should be humble. People are like this, and things can change over time. Don't take advantage of us because we're down and out. You might need to beg us for help in the future."
Qin Xiang laughed and acted scared, "I'm really scared. You better hurry up, or you won't be able to catch up with me even if you ride your horse."
After saying that, Qin Xiang turned around and left. She had seen enough of the excitement and no one wanted to face such a few people. It was really disgusting.
Cui Hong supported Wang Junsheng and said gently, "Junsheng, don't pay attention to her. I believe you will have a bright future. We must make all those who look down on us kneel down and beg us. I believe in you."
For the first time, Wang Junsheng felt that Cui Hong was not that bad. These words touched his heart.
Wang Junsheng was walking while thinking about something with Cui Lianhua on his back. He didn't look at the road carefully. The road was a bit icy, and his foot slipped and he fell with a bang.
No matter whether it was Wang Junsheng or Cui Lianhua, they both fell hard. Cui Lianhua cried out, "It hurts so much, Junsheng, I'm dying of pain."
Wang Junsheng was not having a good time either. He sprained his ankle when he fell.
Qin Xiang walked out for a short distance and heard some noise. She looked back and was so happy that she almost started singing "Good Day" in the street.
Zhao Ping rarely saw his boss so happy, and then he said, "I heard that Hong Mei brought people to Cui Hong's place today. Judging from the injuries on her face, it seems that they were beaten by Hong Mei's people."
Qin Xiang was stunned. "Didn't you say they registered?"
"Yes, we've registered." Although the matter between Cui Hong and Sun Qiang has ended, Zhao Ping also paid someone to keep an eye on Cui Hong. It seems that the two of them registered just yesterday.
Qin Xiang nodded. "That's it. Now that it's registered, even if Wang Junsheng knows Cui Hong is cheating, since they didn't catch her in bed, Cui Hong won't admit it, let alone let Wang Junsheng go. Wang Junsheng is such a proud man, he probably wouldn't dare to appeal for divorce. Even if he did, it would be useless. Cui Hong won't admit it. This is good. They should be tied together. Otherwise, once they are untied, they will come out and cause trouble to others again."
"Ah, what a wonderful day."
As the Chinese New Year approached, Qin Xiang paid off all the money owed to Guan Zhihong for the goods, and also repaid 50,000 yuan to the bank. She would pay the remaining 50,000 yuan next year.
Although she still had a lot of money, she never thought she had too much money, and she still had to save money to start a factory. So she would never have enough money.
Back in the wholesale city, there were a lot of people. Wholesalers were clearing out their stocks, and self-employed individuals were making their final stockpiles. Although the Chinese New Year is not far away, this period is the peak shipping period.
Whether you are rich or poor, you have to celebrate the New Year. During the New Year, men, women, young and old all want to wear new clothes. In recent years, whether in rural areas or cities, everyone's living conditions have improved significantly. Food may be tolerable, but wearing new clothes is a matter of face, so you have to buy new clothes.
Qin Xiang came out to take a look and saw that they were busy but in an orderly manner, and the new shop assistants were also on the right track, so she was no longer worried. Then she went to the storefront to take a look.
Qin Baotian stewed some pork ribs and asked Qin Xiang to come up and eat. "Is the exam coming up soon?"
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "I took one exam yesterday. I'll be almost done with it in three days."
Qin Baotian was surprised, "Then why did you come out?"
"I'm here to settle the bill for the goods, and also to check on the store. It's been ages since I've been here." Qin Baotian's cooking skills have improved dramatically. He was just like that. Back in the day, Qin Baotian worked outside, then came home and sat on the kang, doing nothing. Lian Fengying did the cooking and laundry, and even handed him the food when he ate. He hadn't expected to learn everything since arriving in the capital.
Qin Baotian frowned, "Mr. Meng has returned to Hong Kong City?"
Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, I left yesterday."
Before leaving, I went to see her at school. Although we didn't talk about it openly, we tacitly agreed that we were a couple.
Qin Xiang was quite satisfied. He was handsome, good-natured, and not clingy. Where else could you find someone like him?
"Then you two..."
"It's just as you think." Qin Xiang knew her father's worries, looked at her father and said, "Dad, don't worry, I know what's going on. We've already discussed it. If we can talk, we'll talk. If we can't talk, we'll separate so that no one will be delayed. I think it's a good idea. I know you're worried, but to be honest with you, I won't get married until I'm absolutely sure."
Qin Baotian was anxious, "How can you not get married? What will you do when you are old?"
Qin Xiang said as a matter of course, "I have earned enough money, but I am still worried that no one will take care of me when I am old? I will build a nursing home myself and hire people to take care of me. You want to ask what to do if I don't get married and have children, right? This is my solution. Do you think having children will make them filial to me? What if I give birth to an ungrateful person who only wants my money? Then I will probably be more miserable living than dying. In that case, it is better not to have one. There is nothing wrong with being alone. If Meng Huaiqing and I break up one day, I can still find someone else. I have money and ability, and I don't need a companion anymore."
Qin Baotian was stunned when he heard these shocking words.
