Happiness System

Chapter 161 The Wife of an Advanced Person 12

Qin Xiaoyun didn't know that her subordinates were secretly doing something, so she finally didn't go out with Qin Qinghai.

When Qin Qinghai installed the telephone, he also installed one for her.

When she learned that Yan Shenghong was in contact with overseas grain traders, she remembered the plot that briefly mentioned how Yan Shenghong and Zhou Shishi became rich overnight.

Unfortunately, Qin Qinghai had already gone out to inspect the Qin family's business at that time. She knew that even if she had thought of this before, she would not be able to stop Qin Qinghai, but she still had to remind him.

Qin Qinghai called a week after he went to visit his cousin's wife across the street.

This time he went out with his two younger brothers. After hanging up the phone, he immediately sent someone to investigate, and the next day he sent the two Jiang He brothers back to Qingcheng.

Even so, Qin Qinghai would not interrupt the inspection because of possible danger, but brothers from the same mother cannot die together!

Chen Yuling had no idea of ​​the danger her husband was about to face. She, her cousin Chen Leling, and Fang Yulan were busy as hell!

After that, Qin Xiaoyun regretted more than once for dragging them to accompany Fang Yulan in doing business. These Chen sisters are simply obsessed!

When it comes to doing business, you don’t care about men or children anymore!

Of course, their men were also very busy, but the children could not be left unattended, so they all left their children to Qin Xiaoyun.

There are four from the Zheng family, three from the Qin family, plus Qin Qingjun and Qin Xiaofu, her home has become a crazy kindergarten!

The children finally started school and thought it was finally over, so they habitually ran to her house as soon as they got out of school!

It's even more terrifying than being a painless mother!

In order to avoid these children, Qin Xiaoyun forced herself to become a strong woman.

In early October, the scorching sun was finally covered by dark clouds.

The Marshal's Mansion immediately ordered all farmers in Qinzhou to harvest the crops in the fields immediately.

This news left the farmers at a loss as there was still half a month before the actual harvest time, and for those who planted later, it would take more than twenty days.

Now is the harvest season. Once harvested, this year's income will be reduced by at least 30% to 60%!

But the Marshal's Mansion not only posted a notice saying that taxes would be reduced by 50% this year, it also sent a military commander to supervise farmers in harvesting grain.

As a result, those who had originally wanted to pretend to obey secretly realized the seriousness of the matter, and their lazy attitude changed. They wanted to collect the grain overnight without even sleeping.

Some big landlords even went into the city overnight and posted notices recruiting people to go to the countryside to collect grain.

The Marshal's Mansion was even more ruthless. They spread the news to the big landlords, saying that this time they could free up half of the army to rent out labor. The rent was not to be 10,000 or 8,000 yuan, but half of the harvest after deducting taxes!

Those well-informed landlords had already known about the disaster prophecy. When the news of renting out the army was released, the landlords cursed the Marshal's Mansion for being heartless!

But it was getting dark, and unless they didn’t want the food in the fields, they would have to accept this loss!

It is true that it would be a greater loss if they did not have the grain from the fields. Although it would also be a loss to hire the generals to work, at least the remaining money would be enough for them to buy seeds and fertilizers next year.

Dark clouds hung in the sky for three days that day. Not only did the temperature not drop, but you had to light a lamp in the house to see clearly during the day.

Just when everyone was cursing that God was sending a curse, heavy rain came down in the evening.

At midnight, the temperature dropped sharply, and it was deep autumn overnight!

"When I went to get some clothes the other day, I met someone from the master's side. When he saw me holding winter clothes, he laughed at me and said I was a country bumpkin!

It sounds harsh to say that you are making winter clothes when you can't even wear autumn clothes.

This time her grandson will freeze to death!"

Pan'er kept muttering while making Qin Xiaoyun's bed and changing the thick quilt, and then she seemed to stop caring.

She gloated and said, "Miss, you don't know, those concubines are very competitive. They don't wear old clothes. As soon as the season changes, those clothes will be given to poor relatives from their mother's side!

And I heard that the family over there is very extravagant, and the master even treats his colleagues to drinks and meals every day, he is very generous!

I guess the money over there has been almost spent!

This time, maybe they can’t even afford new cotton-padded clothes, and they will have to stay in bed with quilts all the time!”

Qin Xiaoyun nodded at her, "You are such a narrow-minded person! Remember to keep warm when you go back. Call to buy more coal tomorrow. The price of coal is going up and it will be hard to buy."

"Oh, thanks to the young lady for reminding me, otherwise our coal wouldn't last until the New Year, and it wouldn't be worthwhile to buy it at a high price then!

Oh, why is the room still not warm? Could it be that Aunt Liu can't light a fire?"

Pan'er made the bed, tucked Qin Xiaoyun into the quilt, and immediately ran out.

Early in the morning, Pan'er made a phone call, and an hour later, Luo Dalin and his team drove a truck to deliver the coal.

Seeing what was happening here through the rain, the Chen sisters sent people to ask about it, and then they also joined the coal-buying army.

After the driver delivered the coal for the two families, the residents of the nearby villa also wanted to buy some, but the driver said that there was no stock in the warehouse and the coal from the coal yard could not be transported out due to heavy rain.

Even if there was coal in the warehouse, it would be useless because there was flooding everywhere and it couldn't be delivered.

The water in the low-lying areas of the city had flooded into the residents' homes. The driver did not dare to stay for long. After explaining a few words, he turned around and drove away.

Just after noon, the water in Qin Xiaoyun's yard was above her feet.

It seemed like there was a crack in the sky, and the rain never stopped. The crackling sound outside was very annoying.

Especially Chen Yuling, Qin Qinghai just went to Dongzhou, Dongzhou is a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, it used to be a place with abundant rainfall, and in summer it was often accompanied by hurricanes...

Chen Yuling found out that there were also continuous heavy rains in Dongzhou, and that it started two days earlier than in Qinzhou. That is, it started raining heavily the day after Qin Qinghai went to Dongzhou.

What’s even more frightening is that hurricanes, which usually only occur from July to September, have started to blow again.

Chen Yuling was very worried as she couldn't contact her husband. She couldn't stay at home anymore, so she ran to Qin Xiaoyun in the pouring rain.

After just a few steps, Chen Yuling's skirt and clothes were all wet.

Qin Xiaoyun's body shape was similar to hers, but Chen Yuling was a little plumper. Seeing this, she quickly asked Pan'er to get a set of clothes that she was not wearing for Chen Yuling to change into.

After Chen Yuling changed her clothes and came out, she scolded: "Sister-in-law, you are such a jerk. No matter how worried you are about brother, you should take care of yourself first."

Chen Yuling held the hot tea in her hand and forced a smile. "This rain makes me nervous. I heard that it started raining earlier in Dongzhou, and now there's a hurricane. How can I sit still? I'm afraid I'll scare myself to death if I stay at home!"

Qin Xiaoyun could understand her and could only comfort her, "The fortune tellers all said that my elder brother is a blessed person, so he will be fine.

Before going to Dongzhou, he told me that he had received the self-defense items I prepared for him. He is a husband and a son, and knowing that his family is worried about him, he will naturally take good care of himself.

It rained so heavily in Dongzhou that many places were flooded and communications were cut off.

Big brother must be thinking about you and your nephews, maybe he just lost communication and couldn't report his safety!"

"It rains in Dongzhou in the early morning, so Big Brother will definitely not go out in the rain, let alone walk in an unfamiliar place at night.

He is an adult. If he sees that the rain continues and there is water on the road, he will definitely find a safe place to stay."

After persuading for a long time, Chen Yuling's wet nurse called and said that the child was crying and looking for her. Chen Yuling didn't want to go back and think about it, so she asked the wet nurse to bring the child over.

In this weather, once the three children arrived, the whole family was busy.

The two younger ones were wrapped tightly and carried over, so they didn't get wet in the rain. The older one was stubborn and insisted on walking over by himself, and his lower body was almost completely wet. Fortunately, they brought clothes with them.

After serving the little ones, it was time for dinner.

Seeing that her nephew Qin Baisong avoided the vegetables and only picked the meat to eat, Qin Xiaoyun put a piece of vegetables in his bowl and said, "Song'er, you can't be picky about food. The rain has flooded the land. It will be difficult to eat green leafy vegetables in the future. Maybe it will be difficult to buy cabbage and radish this winter."

Qin Baisong pouted and ate the greens before asking, "Aunt Yun, can't the greens continue to grow in the water?"

Qin Xiaoyun also picked up a piece of green vegetables for her second nephew Qin Baibai, "Some vegetables can grow in water, but not in water like this. Most plants like both the sun and water."

"Oh, there is no sun now, so it doesn't like it and won't grow!" Qin Baisong seemed to understand.

The third child, Qin Baifeng, looked a little dying. Qin Xiaoyun persisted for a while, guessing that the child was sick. After dinner, she asked Liu Ma to make some cold-proof tea for him to drink.

Of course, Qin Baisong and Qin Baibai did not escape the fate of drinking bitter tea.

Over there, Qin Qinghai's life was not as good as theirs.

The train he was on was delayed for a long time, and he settled down late at night. He was woken up by the sound of heavy rain not long after he fell asleep.

Thinking of what his cousin said in her heart, his face changed, and as soon as it was daybreak he asked the people around him to buy thick clothes.

He prepared two thin jackets, but he felt that was not enough, as he also had to prepare food.

Although it was daybreak outside, it was actually still pitch black. Even the small breakfast shops had only a few lights on in preparation for the morning market.

Several people knocked on the doors of every ready-made clothing shop, and finally only a small shop opened whose owner lived inside. Without caring about anything else, everyone picked out the best clothes in the shop, both thick and thin.

The owner of the shop next door heard the noise and had been observing quietly. Seeing that they had made a lot of money, he immediately tried to attract them by saying that his shop not only had rainproof cloth, but also raincoats that foreigners wore that were a million times better than straw raincoats.

Seeing how heavy the rain was, and remembering Qin Qinghai's instructions, several people walked in silently, not caring about the high prices charged by the store. They not only bought raincoats and rainproof cloths, but also some groceries such as oil lamps and candles.

Then he hurriedly wrapped the new clothes in rainproof cloth, put on his raincoat, and ran to buy food.

By the time they returned to the inn, nearly three hours had passed and the temperature had begun to drop.
