Ginseng Hen Soup
Song Qiu Sheng followed the developer to have dinner with his superiors. If they wanted to get the land, they had to build good relationships with the higher-ups. As far as he knew, there were two other developers who had their eyes on the land, so they currently had no advantage.
No, he suddenly remembered that on the day when they were eating roast duck at Quanjude, Deputy Director Chen sat at the same table with him and the other party didn't know him.
Thinking it was a family dinner, he did not disturb the other party. He just felt that his sister was too lucky because the senior leader he and the developer wanted to find was a family member of hers.
Song Qiu Sheng came to his senses and decided that if today's matter was successful, he would definitely give his sister a generous reward when he made a lot of money.
In addition to Deputy Director Chen, Director Qian was also present today. It is said that Director Qian is about to retire and Deputy Director Chen is the most likely person to take over his position.
Along the way, the developer repeatedly reminded him not to talk nonsense. Song Qiu Sheng thought that even if he was stupid, he would not talk nonsense in front of the director.
Before entering the house, the developer Mr. He said earnestly: "Qiu Sheng, you are a young man who has worked hard outside, so you can't avoid drinking today. I know that you young people are arrogant and feel aggrieved, but you have to consider the consequences before doing things."
Song Qiu Sheng gave him the feeling that he was a brat who would flip the table over if he disagreed with someone, so he had to criticize him more. If Song Qiu Sheng had not been outside and had a wide range of knowledge, he would not have chosen him to discuss cooperation with him.
"Don't worry, Mr. He. I've never lost in terms of drinking capacity."
Mr. He felt relieved because there was no one around him who could not afford to lose, and Song Qiu Sheng had experience in business and should not be a drag on him.
After they entered the house, they waited for the guests. It took Mr. He a long time to get Deputy Chen and Director Qian to have dinner together.
Chen Kang entered the private room first and opened the door for Director Qian.
As soon as he looked up, he met Song Qiu Sheng's eyes. What a coincidence! Isn't this his sister-in-law's biological brother?
With this relationship, the dinner was not as chaotic as imagined. We could even chat about family matters and not drink much.
Mr. He wiped the sweat off his face. His attitude towards the two directors was as if he wanted to worship them as gods. Song Qiusheng was indeed a man who had worked hard at a young age. He could talk to Deputy Chen without changing his expression even though he was related to him. It was he who held Song Qiusheng back.
"Okay, we will carefully consider the land issue and decide by internal vote. After all, we are all for the benefit of the people. You can wait for notification."
Mr. He and Song Qiu Sheng looked at each other.
"Is this a possibility?"
Song Qiusheng frowned slightly: "It's hard to say."
Chen Kang followed Qian Ju out.
Qian Ju shook his head and said, "No, these two have too little experience. Their combined age is about the same as mine. I don't feel comfortable handing over such an important piece of land to them."
Chen Kang also wanted to say a few good words to help Song Qiu Sheng get an opportunity. He felt that Song Qiu Sheng was sophisticated and savvy in his speech and behavior, and might be able to accomplish great things.
Before he could start, the secretary of the Qian Bureau came in quickly and reported in a low voice. Qian Bureau's face suddenly changed.
"Let's go to the police station."
Chen Kang came out with the leader, and seeing that the leader had something urgent to do, he hurried over to see if he could help.
After Chen Kang got in the car, he signaled his secretary to get the medicine, "Director Qian, you have a heart disease, don't get emotional."
Qian Ju took the medicine with trembling hands: "You're right, I can't mess up my steps."
When he arrived at the police station, Chen Kang saw a familiar person sitting on a chair in the corridor. He rubbed his eyes uncertainly.
"Mom, why did you bring your child to the police station?"
Qian Ju glanced at him in confusion, then hurriedly followed the secretary to find his daughter.
Han Rong was even more surprised: "Why are you here too?"
This is a long story, and Han Rong told the whole story. While Chen Kang was angry at the kidnapper, he couldn't help but sigh at the luck of his brother-in-law and his sister. Wasn't it that God was helping them?
When Qian Ju saw his haggard daughter, Qian Xiuzhi cried out "Wow" and jumped into his arms when she saw her father.
She lost her mother when she was young and was raised by her father. When she grew up, she had a conflict with her father over marriage, so she took the initiative to marry a husband of bad background and went to the countryside with him.
Later, her husband returned to the city and resumed his job, and she returned to the capital. However, she had been estranged from her father during those years, and she did not dare to go home to visit him even though they were in the same city.
This time, her husband was on a business trip and her son was in school, so she wanted to go out to buy some daily necessities and baby products. Unexpectedly, she met a vicious kidnapper.
Who would have thought that the kidnapper would be a kind-looking old lady? They sat together and chatted about family matters, and she unconsciously told her personal information, including her age, name, and the age of her children. After chatting for a while, the old lady said she was going out for a while and asked her to help watch something. Then a man came to ask for directions, and the old lady suddenly came back and slapped her and scolded her for cheating, which stunned her.
Then things got out of hand, and a kind-hearted girl came forward to help her buy time, and the girl's mother-in-law helped to call the police.
The more Qian Xiuzhi thought about it, the more frightened she became. She calmed down and realized that the old witch and the man didn't want to take her child away. They wanted to kidnap her to be their daughter-in-law and sell her daughter.
If she hadn't met a kind person, she might never have seen her father for the last time in her life.
Qian Xingguo was so angry that he burst into curses, totally disregarding his leadership style. Fortunately, he had taken medicine in advance and was not seriously injured.
The police comrades acted quickly. While Song Shixia was taking the statement, the man and the old lady explained everything clearly.
These two are not mother and son. The old lady's son is someone else. This man is the old lady's nephew. Her son was born with a disability and could not find a wife in the countryside.
The old lady was in charge of choosing a wife for her son, while her nephew specialized in kidnapping children. According to him, he had already completed several kidnapping cases.
The last wife the old lady found for her son escaped and fell off a cliff and died. She had no choice but to come out again to look for a new target before she could even hold her grandson.
Qian Xiuzhi was holding her child and was dressed better than most people. After asking around, the old lady learned that Qian Xiuzhi had a son, and she concluded that Qian Xiuzhi would be able to give birth and carry on the family line.
After listening to the old lady's statement, she did not seem to think that she had done anything wrong. In her eyes, attempt was not a crime, and Qian Xiuzhi did not lose a piece of meat. It was not until the police wanted to arrest her son that the old lady finally got anxious.
Qian Xingguo angrily rebuked: "You think your son is innocent, but you think you should harm other people's precious daughters!"
The old lady was not convinced: "Don't talk nonsense. It was the girl who ran out and fell to her death. How can my son be considered a murderer? How can we be blamed for her short life? Women have to get married and have children. Marrying my son won't make her any less."
Qian Xingguo wanted to beat up this old witch, but it was the police who brought him out.
After hearing the whole story, Chen Kang was shocked by the old lady's shamelessness.
"Calm down and don't let yourself get hurt by this evil person. The law will punish them and their whole family."
Qian Xingguo suppressed his anger: "Thanks to your mother and your sister-in-law today, otherwise... otherwise the consequences would be disastrous." After saying this, he wiped his face. He was a real failure as a father.
Chen Kang considered and said, "No matter who encounters this kind of thing, they will come forward to help."
"No, you don't understand. Comrade Song's quick thinking helped a lot. She was the only one who saw that something was wrong and helped to delay the situation. The police comrades all praised her for her strong vigilance. The female comrades in your family are all great. I came to thank you in person for solving this problem."
Chen Kang smiled bitterly, wondering if he was taking advantage of Xiao Song.
Song Shixia came out with a bitter face, she felt her instep was swollen. There is a saying that goes, the ant trips up the elephant and needs to have a clear understanding of one's own abilities. She is the ant who overestimates her own abilities.
The police officer's compliments were like adding fuel to the fire: "If it weren't for your crucial move, the man might have gotten away."
Song Shixia frowned and would never show off again. She believed that the police comrades would definitely catch the bad guys. There was no award for bravery this time, but she didn't help for the reward. Her mother-in-law told her that Qian Xiuzhi's father was Director Qian, and Qian Bureau was led by her brother-in-law. She suddenly felt that the world was really small.
Han Rong was scared when she thought about it: "I am worried about letting you go out alone, it's good for you to stay at home all day."
She didn’t understand why Xiao Song didn’t like to go out before. She thought that staying at home all day would make her stupid. Now she can only feel lucky that Xiao Song doesn’t like to go out.
Ji Yuan clenched his fist and said, "When I grow up, I will be able to protect my mother when she goes out!"
Song Shixia smiled and said, "Then I will wait for Yuanyuan to grow up and protect me."
Ji Yang whispered: "I can protect you too."
She rubbed their faces one by one, saying they were worthy of being her children.
The adults did not avoid the two children when they spoke. Their little brains had limited capacity to absorb anything, and they only knew that it was the evil mother-in-law who wanted to take away their aunt's baby, and their mother protected them.
Song Shixia's instep was swollen, so Chen Kang first took them to the hospital, and Qian Ju lent him the driver.
After observing the wound, the doctor said: "It's not a big problem, it will just be swollen for a while."
Han Rong followed the doctor to get the medicine, and Chen Kang coughed.
"I just had dinner with your brother and the developer. I received the news and rushed over right after the dinner."
"My brother?" Her brother got involved with the developer so quickly. Is he planning to enter the real estate industry?
"Yes, they have chosen a piece of land which happened to be approved by our bureau. The qualifications of the several competitors are almost the same. The next step is to see what the money bureau thinks."
Song Shixia smiled lightly: "No matter what the result is, Qian Ju has his considerations." She didn't take it to heart.
The real estate industry in the mainland has just started to take off. Although the policy allows it, few people dare to do it. A large amount of money must be invested in the early stage. Her brother has such foresight that he has surpassed many people. Even if he can't get this piece of land, there are more options. If it really doesn't work, she can help. How much trouble can it take to choose a piece of land?
Chen Kang thought that she would be ecstatic when she knew the news. It was not too much to owe such a big favor to the money bureau, but he did not expect that Xiao Song's reaction would make him sit up and take notice.
Han Rong came back with some medicine, including oral medication and a bottle of safflower oil.
"Don't go back today. I just bought an old hen and haven't killed it yet. I'll make you some chicken soup to nourish you."
Song Shixia refused but was taken home by her mother-in-law.
Ji Xueya was standing by the phone, feeling flustered and confused. He didn't know what the old lady was calling him about and asked him to help call the police.
The security guard called and said, "Comrade Han called the police on behalf of someone else. A passerby encountered a family dispute."
Ji Xueya heaved a sigh of relief: "I'm glad they're fine. Sorry for bothering you again. You don't need to follow up any further."
Not long after the call was hung up, the sound of a car horn was heard at the door.
Han Rong walked into the house with a breeze: "Please help me kill the hens in the backyard and make some chicken soup for Xiao Song to nourish his body."
Ji Xueya looked towards the door: "What happened? Why is Chen Kang here?"
"It's a long story. Go kill the chicken first and we'll talk later."
Song Shixia was supported by the boys on both sides. Those who didn't know would think how serious her injuries were. She just had a swollen instep, not a disabled person.
However, these two guys were extremely stubborn and thought that she would fall without someone to support her. In order not to disappoint their kindness, she had no choice but to cooperate with them and walk together.
Chen Kang followed behind and laughed. Ji Yang and Ji Yuan, the two naughty boys, finally met someone who could control them.
All the valuable medicinal herbs were put into the Korean rong stewed chicken soup, and even two whiskers of Ji Xueya's precious ginseng were pulled out.
Ji Xueya endured the pain and told himself that Xiao Song was the hero of the family and it was his duty to cook ginseng chicken soup for her.
In the next door house, Yu Fang saw Song Shixia being carried into the house, and she stretched her neck to find out what happened.
Her mother came out of the house and said, "There's chicken soup next door. What good thing happened?"
Yu Fang lowered her eyes and said, "I saw his two children supporting his new daughter-in-law. I guess she is pregnant."
"That's a really great event. I have to go over and congratulate you."
Song Shixia was forced to drink chicken soup. The chicken soup stewed by her mother-in-law was very nutritious.
Han Rong babbled, "Tomorrow I'll go to the market and buy some pig's trotters, and make you some pig's trotter soup. You'll be replenished with whatever you eat."
Song Shixia almost spit out a mouthful of soup, "Mom, no need, I'll just have to finish this chicken soup."
Han Rong disagreed with her: "The doctor said that it will take at least half a month for the swelling to go away. You need to drink more soup."
Song Shixia once again regretted why he used the ant's feet to trip the elephant.
Ji Xueya was glared at by his wife, who then advised: "Listen to your mother. We have the means at home. When we were on the march, it was a luxury to eat meat. You young people think eating meat every day is too greasy."
Song Shixia likes to eat meat but doesn't like to drink soup, especially after she drank two bowls of chicken soup, her mother-in-law was still preparing to give her another bowl.
This isn't a mother-in-law, this is my biological mother.
Song Shixia held the bowl tightly and refused to let go: "Mom, I really can't drink any more. My stomach is full of chicken soup. Save it for next time."
Seeing her firm attitude, Han Rong said, "Then I'll keep the rest for you."
Song Shixia was dumbfounded. The remaining half pot of soup and half a chicken were all given to her? !
While her mother-in-law was talking to the neighbors in the yard, she quietly fed the two cubs chicken legs and meaty parts.
"This is our secret. If you tell grandma, I won't make cakes for you anymore."
Ji Yuan pouts, and Ji Yang also pouts. Grandma says that this is the fat that mom has gained to fill her body.
Song Shixia almost knelt down in front of them, threatening to let her mother-in-law come into the house if she didn't eat.
"My foot will be healed in a few days. I won't lie to you. If you can help me with this bowl of meat, I'll go back and bake you some strawberry pancakes!"
The two little guys couldn't resist the adults' sweet talk and the delicious chicken. They burped after eating, which was seen by Han Rong who came into the room.
Han Rong felt amused and angry: "You three are really great."
I watched the movie "Blind Mountain" before and was so scared that I couldn't recover for a week. I am not afraid of horror movies and thrillers, but I am very afraid of this kind of movie with bad guys. After watching it, my back was chilled.
