The room suddenly fell silent.
Zheng Huilin looked at the much older Qin Haisheng and sighed, "Don't even think about getting your son and daughter to forgive you. What you did to them was really too much. They can't possibly forgive you."
"You don't forgive me either, and you blame me too, right?" Qin Haisheng looked at Zheng Huilin with a bitter mouth.
Zheng Huilin pursed her lips and was silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Xiao Jin actually knows me very well. I really did feel soft-hearted towards you. Look at you, you seem to have aged a dozen years in an instant. Now that you're older and alone, your children blame you and don't want to accompany you anymore. It seems that I'm the only one who can accompany you, right?"
Qin Haisheng didn't say anything, but just looked at Zheng Huilin steadily.
Zheng Huilin walked over and sat down beside the bed. The expression on her face gradually became casual: "Actually, when I came here, I did think about forgiving you. When I saw you, my heart really softened."
"It's been over forty years since we met and got married. How many people can accompany each other for such a long time?"
"It seems like over the years, I've never refused any of your requests. No matter what you say, I always think you're right, and I subconsciously obey you. Sometimes when I think about it, I find it incredible."
"But I've come to terms with it now. I don't want to dwell on whether to divorce you or continue living together. It doesn't make much sense. Divorce or not is just a matter of a piece of paper."
"Qin Haisheng, stop making trouble and live your life well. When I have time, I will come to see you and bring you some of your favorite food."
"I'm doing fine now. I live with Xiaojin and take care of her children when I have nothing to do. This is the life I want."
"Don't call me anymore. The kids don't really want to see you. There's no point in seeing you. If you're upset, they won't be happy either."
After Zheng Huilin finished speaking, she reached out to cover Qin Haisheng with the quilt, then got up and left.
Qin Haisheng stared at her leaving back in a daze, tears falling uncontrollably.
It seemed as if he had completely lost everything he had in the past.
Qin Zijin was a little surprised to see Zheng Huilin come out.
Zheng Huilin just smiled at her and said, "Let's go. We can still make lunch if we go back now."
"Yeah." Qin Zijin immediately understood Zheng Huilin's choice.
Qin Haisheng's recovery was not very good, but the hospital had no better solution.
Qin Zijin found him the best sanatorium in Suicheng. All the people who could live there were retired cadres, so there was no need to worry about any problems.
In addition, she also arranged two caregivers for Qin Haisheng to take care of his daily life.
Qin Zijin had no intention of asking about his affairs after that.
As for Qin Zixuan and Zheng Huilin, if they want to see Qin Haisheng, that is their business and she will not stop them.
When Bai Qingqing came back, it was already March.
As spring arrives and flowers bloom, the temperature in Guangzhou gradually rises.
However, we have also entered the return of the south wind. It rains every day, everything is wet, and clothes always have a musty smell, making it difficult to like this season.
Tang Siwan, on the other hand, has grown up a lot. The little girl, who is more than three months old, is chubby and looks particularly cute. She is also well-behaved. Unlike other children who cry all day long, she basically doesn't cry or make a fuss. She will even remind you when she needs to poop or pee.
Du Can and He Tian, who went to participate in the competition, also returned with the championship trophy.
Qin Zijin was a little surprised when looking at the trophy, because the trophy was actually made of real pure gold. It was very heavy, probably weighing two or three pounds.
Du Can couldn't hide the smile on his face, and the depression in his eyes also dissipated a lot.
"You seem to be in a good mood?" Qin Zijin raised his eyebrows when he saw Du Can's appearance. He guessed that this competition was not just a simple competition. Something else must have happened.
Du Can couldn't suppress the smile on his face. He nodded and answered seriously, "I met the man who hurt me back then. This time, not only did I clear my name, but I also made him lose everything. I finally let out a sigh of relief."
"You don't know, this kid told the whole story in front of all the judges, and the other party didn't even have a chance to defend himself. After all, he has lost to Du Can by a lot in cooking skills, and no one believes him in other aspects." He Tian also helped out.
"So what's next? You should have gotten what you wanted by now, right? Do you want to continue working for me? Or do you plan to go back to the capital?" Qin Zijin looked at Du Can with a smile.
Du Can's expression was extremely serious. "I have already sold myself to you. I promised you when I first came here that I would work for you from now on. I plan to work for you until I retire and take on a few apprentices. If you want to open a branch in the future, I can also help you."
"Okay, then I'll give you a raise later." Qin Zijin smiled and was not surprised.
After all, Du Can was drawn in a lottery by the system. He is 100% loyal and would definitely not betray me over a small matter.
But I guess there are a lot of people trying to poach him.
After all, outsiders like them don’t know much about this kind of competition, but those in the catering industry definitely know about it.
"Okay, the store has been closed for a long time, and those customers are making a lot of noise. You can take a break for two days and choose a good day to reopen the store." Qin Zijin looked at the two people who looked exhausted. He guessed that they came back immediately after the game was over. He didn't want to delay their rest and waved his hand to let them go back to rest.
The two nodded and left together.
Qin Zijin originally planned to let them have a good rest, but the two of them looked at the almanac and found that the next day was a good day. It would take more than half a month to find another good day, so they went back to work directly the next day.
On the first day of reopening, the door threshold was almost broken by the customers, from the time the door opened in the morning to the time it closed at night.
Not only were all the prepared ingredients sold out, but even the wine and drinks that Qin Zijin had prepared were sold out, with not a single bit left.
Du Can and He Tian hadn't been this tired in a long time. By the time they closed the door, their hands were shaking and they couldn't even hold the shovel.
Gu Niansheng's voice was hoarse, and he ran to Qin Zijin to cry, making Qin Zijin laugh and cry.
"That's enough, go cry to your Su San, but honestly, when are you planning to get married? The New Year is over, aren't your family urging you?" Qin Zijin looked at Gu Niansheng teasingly.
Gu Niansheng had just been hugging Qin Zijin's arm and acting coquettishly, but now her face suddenly turned red when she heard this. She coughed and replied softly, "The date has been set. It's in May. Sister Zijin, um, what do we need to do after getting married? Can you tell me about it?"
Qin Zijin looked at her blushing face and immediately understood what she wanted to ask. He couldn't help laughing, and then the two of them huddled together and whispered things that were not suitable for children.
