Happiness System

After dinner, the two little ones couldn’t wait to visit the ocean-view building opposite. Qin Xiaoyun and Fang Yulan chatted for a few words and then asked someone to call them back.

After staying in the western-style building until after three o'clock, Qin Xiaoyun took the others to buy some light summer clothes, even Qin Qinghao who was not at home was not left out.

Since Fang Yulan didn't have to pay her, she was naturally very happy.

She has been through a lot of shocks in the past few days since she moved out, and she is also working hard to change herself and adapt to the new environment and society.

As long as she didn't cause trouble, Qin Xiaoyun was willing to coax her a little, "Mom, you are doing very well now, keep it up, I will buy you a phonograph in a while, and you can sing along if you are bored staying at home."

"Well, it's okay if you don't buy it! Mrs. Zou next door is so nice. She knows that I moved out of a big house, so she always takes me out to play. She didn't get impatient even when I asked too many questions! Your children also play with Ajun and Xiaofu, and take them out to meet the kids in the neighborhood!"

Her ability to adapt to life outside so quickly was also inseparable from Mrs. Zou.

"Mother, why didn't you tell me earlier? Otherwise, I should go to Mrs. Zou's house today. How rude!"

"It's okay. Mrs. Zou is pregnant and doesn't have the patience to walk far. She was still talking about the snacks from Pinzhenzhai yesterday. I'll bring some back to her later."

Fang Yulan is a woman with bound feet, and her feet hurt if she walks too much.

On weekdays, when she went out, she would arrange the time to use the car with the housekeeper early, and then the family car would be sent out directly.

Generally, he would make appointments with other ladies to watch plays at theaters or listen to music and read storytelling in teahouses. Sometimes he would also go to other ladies' homes to play mahjong.

However, after the separation, those wives ignored her. If she called them too much, she would be ridiculed, and then Fang Yulan would stop going to them.

Her husband was just a small clerk and had separated from her. Without the status of the second wife of the Qin family, there was no need for her to flatter others or socialize with those wives.

Although she still felt a little disappointed, she was more open-minded. Then she began to learn from the wives of her neighbors, learning how the wives who lived in the apartment managed their households and handled things.

Even Mrs. Zou, her good friend next door, seemed to be in a bad mood and would just come downstairs to sit for a while at most. Other wives seldom went out either. She thought that the wives who lived in apartments or courtyards outside lived like this.

I went out for a walk today and realized that her previous thinking was just like a frog in a well!

She discovered that there were so many jobs that ordinary girls could do besides being a maid or a receptionist. However, since she was no longer young and had never attended a foreign school, those jobs were not suitable for her and it was not easy for her to find a job.

When passing by Pinzhenzhai on the way to dinner, Fang Yulan saw that there were not many people there and there were freshly baked dim sum. She went over immediately and selected several dim sum.

Holding the dim sum, she said happily, "I heard that in the whole of Qingcheng, only Pinzhenzhai will bake dim sum in the afternoon. Their dim sum tastes good and they don't worry about not being able to sell it. Unlike other restaurants, you can't buy decent dim sum in the afternoon.

I've heard Mrs. Zou talk about it several times. When she was in the compound, your aunt would occasionally order snacks from his house and bring them back.

Your aunt has a very broad vision, which shows that the food here is really delicious!

Your brothers and sisters are growing up. After dinner, they run a few laps and come back hungry. I will buy some food for them!"

Qin Xiaoyun nodded without refutation, the dim sum in this restaurant is indeed good.

She didn’t eat much of the snacks that Liu Ma bought before, but later she came here to buy snacks for her, and the taste was indeed good, but Liu Ma was very busy and seldom had time to run so far.

After dinner, Qin Xiaoyun called a rickshaw for them, and she and Pan'er naturally took the rickshaw back as well.

Back at the western-style building, Aunt Liu prepared a bath for her and gave her a massage using special techniques. After taking a bath, even her real fatigue was relieved a lot.

With such a rich and comfortable life, she really doesn't want to struggle at all!

She stayed at home for the next two days. Qin Qinghai came over and wanted her to design and supervise the garment shop.

But the real manager of the clothing shop is her second cousin, who doesn't seem to like her very much.

Qin Xiaoyun refused. She was too lazy to bother to see other people's faces.

Qin Qinghai did not force it, and turned to talk about other things, "The foreigners' spinning machines have all been debugged, and the cloth they weave is indeed thinner than the ones woven by the workers, and the production speed is very fast.

The cloth shop we were cooperating with had already received news that we were going to weave foreign cloth. My father meant to weave a batch first to see if it was stable and not to rush to sell it.

As for the newly dyed fabrics, we have already sent out samples, and will launch two new fabrics every two months.

We also don’t plan to sell the other three new styles to others, so we’ll make them into ready-made garments and sell them in our shop.”

Then he talked about inspecting the property, because he was afraid that his mother would stop him from moving when he was not at home, so he planned to postpone his trip for a few days.

The Qin family's industries are not only distributed in Qinzhou, but also in Marshal Xie's Dongzhou and Marshal Shen's Mozhou.

The businesses in Dongzhou and Mozhou are managed by old man Qin Wenshan's two younger brothers. According to the rules, after the old man's death, it is time for Qin Huairong's generation of descendants to go and take them back.

But because Qin Wenshan had only Qin Huairong as his legitimate son, the old man left a will saying that he would replace him after Qin Qinghai's two legitimate brothers, Jiang He, grew up.

In fact, the industry there is a subsidy to the second sons of the Qin family. As long as they do not make losses in the accounts, the head of the family will not care.

The industries in Qinzhou are inspected once a year, and the industries in Dongzhou and Mozhou are inspected once every two years, and they are all routine inspections.

Uncles Fugui and Uncle Yu had already prepared to take over, since the old lady only gave birth to Qin Huairong as her legitimate son!

They didn't expect that the old man had a backup plan, nor did they expect that even if the old man didn't have many offspring, the gap between legitimate and illegitimate children was not something they could cross.

After moving out, Qin Huaifu has expressed his intention to start his own business and is currently in the process of handing over his work; Qin Huaigui is also eager to move, but has not yet made up his mind.

Qin Huairong didn't care about their separation. These two younger brothers were very cunning and he didn't find it easy to use them.

Any steward from the Qin family is more useful than the two younger brothers and is easy to use. Their departure will not cause any loss.

Qin Xiaoyun hasn't decided whether to follow him on the inspection. In fact, she doesn't want to get too involved with the Qin family so as not to be too high-profile.

As a divorced daughter, it would be better for her to keep a low profile and make a fortune quietly. Being too high-profile can easily lead to trouble.

After chatting about the Qin family for a while, Qin Xiaoyun told him about her idea of ​​getting her eldest sister-in-law and Mrs. Zheng next door to start the soap business with her mother.

Of course she has no intention of getting involved in this business, she just offers some ideas.

Then they talked about how Liu Xundong wanted to get them to join and continue doing business with foreigners. The capital was not much, and each person just needed to put out 10,000 yuan. Of course, don't expect the same profit as last time.

Liu Xundong is the youngest son of the second-in-command of Qinzhou. He has been a rebellious person since he was young, and no one knows how he ended up playing with Qin Qinghai.

After the last cooperation, Liu Xundong is still a reliable person. In addition to his background, as long as there is no family involvement, working together would be the best thing that could not be better.

Qin Qinghai had no objection to the cooperation with Liu Xundong, but he still had to ask his wife Chen Yuling. He would not make decisions for his wife, lest he would be the one to suffer the consequences if his wife and Second Aunt had unpleasant cooperation in the future.

"You went to Yun'er's place again? I tell you to pay more attention. You are a grown man. If you weren't her blood brother, your scandal would have spread all over Qingzhou!

Is your family so miserable? You are so busy every day, and you don’t spend more time with your children. They almost don’t recognize you as their dad anymore!”

Chen Yuling was urged to give birth by her mother-in-law again today, and she was so annoyed.

She gave birth to three sons in a row, and was forced to give birth again when the youngest was less than one year old. Doesn't it seem like she doesn't care at all that the belly is not her own?

Sometimes Chen Yuling really couldn't understand her mother-in-law. Her father-in-law had no biological brothers from the same mother, so she always said that her uncles were not of the same mind and were always on guard. At the same time, she was glad that her father-in-law had no biological brothers so that she could get less of the family property.

At the same time, she gave birth to five more children, three sons and two daughters. She reminded them every day to take good care of their younger brother, and kept urging them to give birth to more sons.

She is not as stupid as her brother's wife, who is really desperate to give birth!

I just gave birth to a child and my body hasn’t recovered yet, but I’m pregnant again!

People say having two children in three years is a great joy. Her sister-in-law is really good. She has given birth to two children and is pregnant with another in less than three years!

Of course, it was also because the first two were girls, and she was anxious to give birth to a boy to consolidate her identity.

You know, although Qin Qingjiang hasn't officially taken a concubine, he has many female confidants outside. If it weren't for the fact that his eldest brother didn't take a concubine, he would have brought back who knows how many of them!

However, as far as she knew, her mother-in-law was already looking for concubines for their brothers, which was also the reason why Chen Yuling was irritable and unstable.

Qin Qinghai pulled her into his arms and said with a smile: "Why are you jealous of your own sister? Huh? Shouldn't you be glad that I went to my sister's place instead of looking for my confidante?"

"Okay, Qin Qinghai, you are awesome! I knew that you can't hide your cunning mind anymore!" Chen Yuling went straight to the hammer.

When a woman goes crazy, she is very strong. Qin Qinghai almost got internal injuries. He quickly grabbed her hands and coaxed her again and again.

Tired! That's why he doesn't want to go home!

There were a lot of concubines in the house, and the mother was aggressive, which made his wife suspicious all day long and she would get angry and lose her temper at the slightest disagreement.

Of course, Qin Qinghai also did not admit that he was the one who spoiled it.

On the contrary, he thought his cousin's suggestion was very good. If he let his wife go out to earn some pocket money and find something to do, she probably wouldn't keep an eye on him all day.

Since he was a child, he had been accustomed to seeing how the beautiful girls in the family competed for favor, and he really had no interest in those women who thought they were smart and were full of tricks.
