220 Chapter 219, You’ve Made A Huge Profit From This
Qin Xiaomin forced a smile and took the initiative to talk to Cheng Shuqin. “Sister-in-law, have you found a school for Mucheng yet?”
Cheng Shuqin looked at Qin Mucheng. “We’ve already discussed it. It shouldn’t be a problem for him to take the test for Mingde.”
Among the few junior high schools in B City, Mingde was the best. Moreover, Mingde had not only middle schools but also high schools.
As long as he could enter Mingde’s middle school, he would be promoted to high school three years later.
Mingde’s third year of high school would send many talents to the top schools in the world every year.
Qin Xiaomin was naturally not surprised by this.
Although they were all surnamed Qin, their family’s conditions were far inferior to that of the Mucheng’s family.
They were separated into several branches. If it weren’t for the fact that her uncle had been assigned to S City for a few years when he was young and had reconnected with her father, the two families might not even be able to speak now.
In addition, Mucheng had always been smart since he was young. He had basically gathered all the good points of Qin Haowen and Cheng Shuqin.
Cheng Shuqin’s words were modest. About Mucheng taking the test for Mingde was probably a foregone conclusion.
This topic was moved on.
On the second day of the New Year, Qin Haowen and Cheng Shuqin were going back to B City.
Firstly, there were too many things to do at the company. Secondly, Cheng Shuqin was going back to her parents’ house on the second day of the New Year.
Before she left, Cheng Shuqin asked Qin Mucheng, “Are you really not going back with us?”
Qin Mucheng shook his head. “No, I’m staying here to accompany Grandpa!”
Cheng Shuqin asked unhappily, “Do you really want to accompany Grandpa?”
Qin Mucheng nodded calmly. “Yes, I want to accompany Grandpa here.”
“Then what if your Grandpa wants to go back with us?” Cheng Shuqin asked deliberately.
Qin Mucheng looked at Qin Junshan.
Qin Junshan saw the look in his grandson’s eyes and immediately began undermining his daughter-in-law. “I’m good here. I’m not going back! Don’t worry about Mucheng being here. When school starts, I’ll ask Xiao Gong to send him back!”
Qin Haowen felt a little helpless when he heard that. “Your body is almost fully recovered, and there’s no one here to take care of you. I think you should go back with Mucheng when he comes back to school!”
Qin Junshan shook his head and said, “I’m fine here. I usually go fishing and take a walk when I have nothing to do. The air here is good, and everyone is living a slow-paced life. The neighbors around are all good. They often bring me the vegetables that they grow at home. On Saturdays and weekends, my granddaughter-in-law comes to visit me. She watches the news and reads books with me.”
Seeing that Qin Junshan really liked this place, Qin Haowen and Cheng Shuqin stopped trying to persuade him.
“It’s regrettable that I didn’t get to meet my daughter-in-law this time.” Cheng Shuqin sighed and took out a few red packets from her pocket, she handed them to Qin Mucheng. “These are red packets for Yuanyuan and the others. Pass them on to them on behalf of Mom.”
Qin Mucheng carefully put it away. “Bye, Dad, Mom!”
Cheng Shuqin choked for a moment. She got into the car with Qin Haowen and started to complain. “I think we raised this son for nothing. Why doesn’t he bear to part with us?”
“Why did we raise him for nothing? Didn’t we bring back a daughter-in-law for you?”
“You’re right!” Cheng Shuqin turned her head and looked behind her.
She initially thought that Qin Mucheng and Qin Junshan were still standing at the same spot and watching them leave.
However, when she turned her head, she realized that the grandfather and grandson had already returned to the house.
Cheng Shuqin angrily retracted her gaze. “What the f*ck is that? I raised him for nothing!”
Qin Junshan brought Qin Mucheng into the house. “It’s so cold.”
Qin Mucheng stuffed the red packet in his hand into the cabinet. “Grandfather, when Yuanyuan returns, you must remind me to give her the red packet.”
“I know, I know,” Qin Junshan said hurriedly.
Meanwhile, Li Xu brought Zhang Kun and the children back to her parents’ home. She stayed at her parents’ home until three o’clock in the afternoon before returning to Zhang Kun’s home.
When she returned, Zhang Yao’s and Zhang Jun’s families were all there.
Zhang Jun did not go back to his father-in-law’s house. Instead, he received Zhang Yao’s family at home.
The moment he entered the house, he smelled the smell of alcohol. He must have drunk some alcohol during dinner.
Ji Yuanyuan subconsciously frowned.
Li Xu hurriedly took out the clothes she bought for Wenwen and handed them to Zhang Yao. “I bought them just by guessing the size. Go back and try them on for the child.”
“Quick, thank Aunty.” Zhang Yao taught Wenwen how to speak.
Wenwen was a little shy and whispered, “Thank you, Aunty.”
Li Xu replied, “You’re welcome!”
“This child, she can’t go to school yet. She’s always being taught at home and is so petty. She doesn’t even dare to speak loudly,” Wei Zhenghao suddenly said.
Zhang Yao’s expression was a little awkward.
“We plan to let her go to school next summer,” Wei Zhenghao continued.
“Sure. Going to school is a good thing. Wenwen won’t even be six years old after the New Year. She can only go to kindergarten,” Zhang Kun said indifferently.
“Wenwen’s birthday is soon, and she’ll turn six in a few months. She should go to kindergarten. If it weren’t for our family’s lack of money, she would have been allowed to go long ago.”
Everyone knew that Wei Zhenghao loved to cry about being poor and taking advantage of others. So when he spoke, no one responded.
“By the way, Sister-in-law, I heard from Big Brother that your store is quite busy. We’re all family. Let Zhang Yao come to your shop to help out after the new year. Coincidentally, isn’t there a kindergarten near your house? It’s convenient for Zhang Yao to bring her child to kindergarten. As for the salary, you can pay it as you see fit. Just pay her 3500 Yuan.”
After Wei Zhenghao finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly quieted down. No one said anything.
Zhang Yao’s face was a little embarrassed. She pushed him. “What nonsense are you talking about? Where will we live there?”
“Didn’t our Brother buy a house? Of the two houses they have, one of them is definitely empty. You are family, you can just go and live there. Can our Brother still ask you for money?”
Zhang Yao’s face instantly turned red. “You…”
“Sister-in-law, is there a problem?” Wei Zhenghao looked at Li Xu and asked.
Ji Yuanyuan pinched Li Xu’s hand, indicating for her not to speak.
This was a matter of the Zhang family, so he would let Father settle it himself.
This uncle was quite shrewd with his calculations!
He wanted to live in their house for free, and for her mother to pay this Aunt a salary.
It was even 3500 Yuan. For a woman like this Aunt who went out to work, the salary was usually only around 200 Yuan a month.
When this Aunt and Wenwen moved in, this uncle would probably thicken his skin and move in as well.
Once this opening was allowed, there would be endless trouble in the future.
Li Xu naturally knew that she had money on her hands, so it was her business if she was willing to spend it.
However, if someone were thinking about her money, she wouldn’t let herself be taken advantage of.
Therefore, she just smiled and didn’t say anything.
When Wei Zhenghao saw that Li Xu didn’t say anything, he smacked his lips. “Sister-in-law, I’m saying all this for your own good. We’re all family. Your shop is so busy. Sooner or later, you’ll have to hire someone. How worried would you be if you hire an outsider? Zhang Yao can even pick up and send your child food for you. You’ve made a huge profit from this.”
Hearing that, Zhang Jun frowned and said, “Brother-in-law, are you drunk? Let me help you to lie down for a while in the west room.”
