Chapter 306 Figured it out
As soon as Qin Huiyin opened her eyes, she saw Xia Ruwan sitting next to her in her underwear, her eyes almost as beautiful as a national treasure.
"You didn't stay up all night, did you?"
Xia Ruwan looked at her sadly: "You have no conscience. I can't sleep, but you sleep soundly."
"Have you forgotten what I'm going to prepare next?" Qin Huiyin got down from the bed, found the clothes she was going to wear today from the closet, and began to dress up.
Xia Ruwan turned sideways, looked at Qin Huiyin's neat figure, and said, "I listened to your words and thought about them all night."
"What did you come up with?"
"I remember when my father and my mother were together, my mother had never laughed so happily before, and that little man made my mother have the shyness of a little woman. I remember the look in my mother's eyes when she touched her belly, which was the kind of love I had never seen before. Rather than saying that I was jealous of the child, I would rather envy the child. The child can make my mother happy, and the little man can make my mother regain the feelings of a young girl. My mother is happy now, and as a daughter who has been protected by her for so many years, I should not be the executioner who destroys her happiness."
"I'll just watch. If that man is not a good guy, I will chop him up with my own hands. If he can really bring happiness to my mother, why would he be such a bad guy? Yinyin, you can accept your stepfather, so why can't I? Am I narrow-minded than you?"
Qin Huiyin said with a smile while combing her hair: "You are using me to convince yourself. But you are right. I can accept it. Why can't you accept it? As children, as long as our mother is happy, nothing else matters."
"I'm so sleepy. I want to take a nap." Xia Ruwan lay back down.
Qin Huiyin combed her hair and put on the hairpin Song Ruize gave her.
"Then go to sleep. I'm going to get busy."
As soon as she arrived at the front yard of Sister Food City, Li Taohua rushed over from the opposite side, hugged her, and called out: "My dear, mother misses you so much."
"Mom, I came back last night." Qin Huiyin said, "You were not here when I came back, so I didn't wait for you."
"I just found out you're back. If I knew you came back last night, I definitely wouldn't play mahjong with them." Li Taohua pulled Qin Huiyin to look at her again and again. "You've lost weight. Did you not eat or sleep well this time when you went out? Did the president of the Chamber of Commerce give you a hard time?"
"No, everything went well."
Qin Huiyin and Li Taohua were talking in front of the stone table in the backyard.
Tang Dafu brought breakfast and said to the two of them, "You and your daughter haven't seen each other for several days. You must have a lot to talk about. Let's have breakfast here!"
"Sister Luwu, have you eaten? Uncle Tang, you haven't eaten either, right?" Qin Huiyin said.
"An important member came early this morning and specifically asked to go to the fourth floor for a full set of treatment. She said there was a banquet in the afternoon and she wanted to outshine the others. Lu Wu is currently receiving that distinguished guest. I sent someone to deliver her breakfast to the fourth floor so she can fill her stomach when she's free. I have things to do, so I'll go first."
After Tang Dafu left, Qin Huiyin and Li Taohua told each other what happened in the provincial capital.
"This military factory... My daughter, I know you always have ideas, but you have to understand that this matter is not that easy to handle. If what you make is very good, you will definitely be rewarded by the court. However, there is another possibility, that is, it is not done well. As the saying goes, serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. We should not get involved with people in the army."
"Mom, I've already promised to go out, and I have to give it a try no matter what." Qin Huiyin said, "Many roads are walked out. If we retreat when we see some thorns ahead, we will never reach the end."
Li Taohua took her hand and patted the back of her hand: "Mother doesn't have any big ambitions. In my opinion, you are already very good now. Even if you keep being like this in the future, it's not bad."
"Mom, is there any news from my brother?"
"It's about time, but there's still no news."
"Where's my brother?"
"No," Li Taohua said, "but a few days ago a caravan delivered a cage of pigeons. I was not there at the time, so I didn't hear what the merchant said. The guy who received the goods happened to be on leave, so he didn't report what he had said, so the chefs thought the pigeons were for cooking. Fortunately, when I came back and heard that they had received a cage of pigeons, I felt something was wrong, so I rushed to the kitchen and rescued them. I took a closer look and found that these were not ordinary pigeons, but homing pigeons."
"Carrier pigeon?" Qin Huiyin was surprised. "Who sent it?"
"Your elder brother was busy taking the imperial examinations and only brought an attendant and a book boy with him. I don't think he has the extra ability to do this."
Then there is only one person left.
"Mother, where are the pigeons?"
"I set up a small room to keep them." Li Taohua looked around and pointed in a direction.
"Mom, you eat first, I'll go take a look." Qin Huiyin stood up and was about to go see the pigeons, but was pulled back by Li Taohua.
Li Taohua poked her forehead and said, "Everyone says you are mature and steady, with wisdom beyond your age, but in my opinion, you are just a little fool. At this hour, what could be more important than filling your stomach? You stay still, or I will take all your precious pigeons and make roasted squabs."
"Okay!" Qin Huiyin sat back down. "Mom, Wan'er found something when she came home yesterday. She was a little shocked. Do you know what it was?"
"Her mother's matter?"
"You know?"
"Ever since her mother wanted to adopt you as her adopted daughter and I rejected her, we've been seeing each other more often. Yunniang is pretty, but in order to support her family and the Xia family, she has to be more masculine than men, and she dresses up in an old-fashioned way. I changed her style on purpose, and then took her to the fourth floor to enjoy a full set of skin care services. As expected, she looks younger and more energetic as she gets older."
"I was the first one to notice the way the little beggar looked at Yunniang. Yunniang only had business in her mind, not men. Even if there was a little man who looked at her so passionately, she didn't feel anything at all. I reminded her of this, but she didn't believe it, saying that it was impossible for a man to like her at her age. Even if a man was courting her, it was for her family property, not for her. I made a bet with her, saying that the boy just liked her. She didn't believe it, and couldn't stand my provocation, so she agreed to the bet."
Qin Huiyin became curious and asked, "What did you bet on?"
"I arranged for several people to assassinate Yunniang, pretending that they were sent by her ex-husband. He had been protecting Yunniang until he couldn't hold on any longer and sent her away first. He was left alone to face the beating of 20 people. Yunniang couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to stop the next action. She apologized to the boy and said that this was a scam and there was no assassination at all. But the little man said, 'It's better that there is no assassination, so you won't get hurt.'"
