Chapter 206 Desire
Yuan Feifei lives a comfortable life. Qin Baobao comes to accompany her every day. In addition to taking care of Zhao Qiji, Liu Aiping also has to take time to accompany her eldest daughter-in-law. The hospital has a private doctor who checks her every day to ensure her safety. Liu Aiping is quite resentful about Qin Baobao dragging her eldest daughter-in-law to start a company together.
Liu Aiping said: "Your eldest brother said that she is weak. Why are you asking her to help you?"
Qin Baobao said, "Mom! These are the things my sister-in-law likes to do. I didn't force her to do them! Besides, it's a good thing for her to have something to do. How often do Big Brother and Xiaofei come home? It's better to have something to do than to be idle at home!"
Liu Aiping sighed and said, "Wait until she gives birth before you start the company!"
Yuan Feifei said, "Mom! I promise you, I will do everything I can. I guarantee it won't affect the child!"
Seeing Yuan Feifei's insistence, Liu Aiping said, "You're weak. We finally have a child, so you have to cherish it! It's up to you!"
Yuan Feifei said: "Okay, Mom! My daughter-in-law knows her limits!"
Thus began Yuan Feifei's career. Besides painting traditional Chinese paintings and studying Ming Dynasty costumes, she also researched Ming Dynasty history and music. She also had an interest in singing. Of course, she wasn't as good as Concubine Tian. But Concubine Tian represented the highest level in the country. Naturally, she couldn't be compared to her. However, in modern times, Yuan Feifei's paintings and Chinese studies are no less impressive than those of experts and professors.
She was also good at imitating Teresa Teng's songs, and she sang them in her own unique way. If she hadn't been pregnant, Qin Baobao would have planned to package her sister-in-law into a big star. However, Yuan Feifei did become a star later.
Wang Jiamin and Zhao Xiaokun did not become friends, but Liu Aiping felt guilty about it, so she asked Qin Baobao to arrange a job for her in the company. Qin Baobao then asked Wang Jiamin to work in finance at her newly established company.
At this time, Wang Jiamin was sitting in Qin Baobao's office and asked, "How is it going? How is this woman's investigation going? I always feel that this woman is weird!"
Qin Baobao said, "I asked a lawyer to investigate, but they found nothing! The lawyer said that she most likely only has one nationality, but doesn't live locally. There are plenty of people like that in that small African country!"
Wang Jiamin said, "Don't you think this woman is a local agent, specifically watching the Zhao brothers?"
Qin Baobao said, "You have a wild imagination. They are rich, but not to the point of being under state surveillance. There are many people richer than them!"
Wang Jiamin said, "Through this woman's story, I think you should really investigate your husband. Find out how much assets he has. If you don't look back, you won't even know how much money your husband has!"
In the evening, after putting the child to sleep, Qin Baobao went to Qin Xiaomi's room. Qin Xiaomi was practicing her pipa. Seeing her sister come in, she put down the instrument and asked, "Sister! Are you done?"
"I'm done." Qin Baobao said.
"What have you been busy with recently?" Qin Baobao asked.
"I recently wrote a historical drama about the Ming Dynasty! Sister! Let's make a TV series! I want to play the leading female role!" Qin Xiaomi said.
"Forget it! Your conditions may not be suitable! We two sisters are good-looking and can be considered pretty. But our faces are too modern! We don't have any classical beauty at all! The eldest sister-in-law is suitable! When she stands there, she is obviously a rich lady. When she puts on Hanfu, she is definitely a royal concubine or queen! The most you can do is to be a maid beside her!" Qin Baobao said with a smile.
"Sister! Why do you always discourage me? Whether it becomes popular or not depends entirely on the packaging. I just want to shoot a story about the Ming Dynasty!" Qin Xiaomi said.
Qin Baobao said, "Alright! Let's talk about it later! Even if I want to take a photo of the company now, I don't have enough money!"
Qin Xiaomi hugged her sister's arm and said, "Sis! The entertainment company doesn't have enough money, let's take some from the trading company!"
Qin Baobao said, "It's not that easy! Don't forget that Jiang Xiaomei controls the finances of the trading company! If she doesn't sign, I can't get much!"
Qin Xiaomi said with disdain, "Sister! It's already late! It's time for Jiang to leave! Besides, didn't my brother-in-law leave behind a lot of cultural relics? Let's set up an auction company. If you buy one or two, you'll be rich! There are so many good things, my brother-in-law can't possibly remember them all! If we sell a few, we'll have money to film!"
"This is not a good idea! Your brother-in-law said these things cannot be sold easily!" Qin Baobao said hesitantly.
Qin Xiaomi said, "Brother-in-law got these things just to make money. Is he planning to open a museum? Besides, you're relieved when he doesn't come home every other day? Last time, you saw how attentively he took care of your sister-in-law, and you acted like that. If he really brings another one back someday, you won't even have anywhere to cry! You'd better make plans for your future now! Make more money to ensure your future life! My silly sister, think about it carefully!"
Qin Xiaomi's words made Qin Baobao fall into deep thought again. Yes! Her sister reminded herself many times, but she just couldn't do it. Qin Xiaomi could see that her sister was a little hesitant, so she said, "Sister! Just give me the key! I'll go to Beijing to get one and try! Even if my brother-in-law finds out, he won't be too angry. Then you can push it onto me, how about it?"
Qin Baobao hesitated and thought about it for a long time. Finally, desire overcame reason and she handed the key to Qin Xiaomi!
Once Qin Xiaomi got the key, things changed completely. She flew to a basement in Beijing, a treasure trove Zhao Xiaofei had built. It was for the chance to make a comeback if he didn't have to go to Ming Dynasty anymore, or if the company failed. It was also a guarantee for his family.
When Qin Xiaomi got the key and walked into the treasure house, the paintings, calligraphy, porcelain, and jewelry simply blinded her eyes. She knew her brother-in-law was rich and had many antiques. But when faced with so many things, it was difficult for anyone to remain calm.
She had originally intended to take only one item, but then a sinister thought occurred to her: she planned to keep one for herself. But what should she take? Paintings and calligraphy were too conspicuous, too easily discovered. They absolutely couldn't be touched! Neither could porcelain, as it was also highly sought after on treasure appraisal shows. The only items left were jewelry and jade!
Qin Xiaomi came to this area, looked around, and finally chose a Guanyin jade pendant carved from Xinjiang Hetian jade. The jade pendant was one-third the size of her palm and difficult to be seen, so she put it in her arms.
But how could she choose one for herself? Because her key was so special, she doubted anyone outside would dare to make a duplicate, and even if they did, it would be discovered. She looked around and finally settled on a small seal.
Because of this seal, Qin Xiaomi was in great trouble!
