Happiness System
Chapter 176 The Wife of an Advanced Person 27
Gu Lei shook the banknotes in his hand, "It's not easy for us to take a bus with all these things. I'll use the remaining money to make a phone call and ask someone to pick us up so that we don't have to go through so much trouble!"
Qin Xiaoyun looked at the time and saw that there was still nearly an hour before the train departed, so she nodded.
I thought I would have to wait for a while, but unexpectedly Gu Lei came back in less than ten minutes.
He bared his big white teeth and said, "It cost me three dollars to make the call, two dollars to use my connections, and I got some inside information. The train was delayed and will probably be late by an hour. The remaining money is just enough for us to have a meal!"
There was no place to store the luggage at that time, and there was no surveillance on these things. Qin Xiaoyun really didn't want others to go through her things, even if there were no valuables.
Storing things has a different price. Gu Lei was calculating the few dollars in his hand carefully. He was reluctant to spend the money in vain, so the group of people could only continue to carry large and small bags to find food.
The train station was built on the outskirts of the city, so it was impossible to find any good restaurant nearby. Besides, they had no money, so they finally just found a noodle shop that looked clean.
A bowl of vegetarian noodles costs only 20 cents, one with meat and eggs costs only 30 cents, and one with seafood also costs 30 cents.
Qin Xiaoyun and Pan'er each ordered a bowl of noodles with meat and eggs, and the other five men each ordered a bowl of noodles with meat, eggs and seafood, and they all ate it up.
After finishing the noodles, he still had half of his money left. With the mentality of not leaving anything empty-handed, Gu Lei spent all the money buying dried seafood.
The government could make free arrangements for the three international students, and Qin Xiaoyun had no shortage of food either, so Gu Lei happily split it in half with He Nan.
When I returned to the waiting hall of the train station, the train had not arrived yet.
There are very few trains at this time, so naturally there are a lot of people on the trains.
All the corners were occupied, so they could only find a place with fewer people.
To be honest, the smell was not pleasant at all. It made Qin Xiaoyun, who had just eaten, feel dizzy. She had no choice but to open her bag to see if spraying some perfume would help. Unexpectedly, she found a one-yuan foreign currency in the corner.
Then, relying on that one foreign dollar, they successfully entered the platform early to wait for the train.
Although it’s a bit sunny over there, the air is much better!
This place is quite close to Qingcheng, and it only takes two hours to get there by train.
The smell in the train was not good either. Fortunately, they bought first-class seats. Everyone there was a respectable person. Not only did they have little luggage, but there were no standing tickets and no one brought chickens, ducks or other livestock.
Regardless of the era, class hierarchies exist.
Almost all of Qin Xiaoyun's belongings were shipped back with the previous batch of goods, so when she arrived in Qingcheng, she could go home with light luggage.
Gu Lei took the three international students and left in another car. When Qin Xiaoyun got home, she immediately asked Liu Ma to give He Nan 100 Singapore dollars and told him to go home and rest for a few days before coming back to work.
Pan'er and Hehua had a great time together. They didn't even take a rest after coming back. They shared the things they brought back with Liu Ma and the others, then took the portion for Hehua back to the apartment.
However, after Qin Xiaoyun washed off the stickiness, she collapsed on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.
When she woke up, it was already the next day.
"Miss, are you awake? Pan'er went over yesterday and brought back Ms. Fang and the others. The wife also came with the second young lady, and a Mr. Xiao called to look for you."
As Aunt Liu said this, she went into the kitchen to make breakfast for her.
Qin Xiaoyun was confused for a moment before she realized that the wife Liu Ma was talking about was Chang.
Why is Chang in Qingcheng, and why is Qin Meiyi here too?
Aunt Liu brought out breakfast before continuing, "Ms. Fang went to You County not long after she came back, and brought the wife and the second young lady over, as well as the second young lady's two children. By the way, the second young lady's second child is also a girl.
The boss Liu who came later squandered all his family property by smoking opium. The western-style building was Mrs. Liu's dowry, so Mrs. Liu sold it, divorced him, and left with her children.
My wife bought the western-style building and moved in just two months after renovating it.
I heard that the second young lady got divorced, and the wife also had a falling out with You County. You can ask Ms. Fang for details tonight."
Qin Xiaoyun ate while listening to Liu Ma talking. It seemed that they were talking about family matters, but in fact, there was a lot of useful information.
By the time she had finished speaking, Qin Xiaoyun had also finished her meal and rested.
She picked up the phone and called her cousin, who said that he was not in the Qin family's office and had not gone out on business, so no one knew where he had gone.
I called the foreign goods office again, Qin Qinghai was not there either, but Liu Xundong was there.
Liu Xundong knew that she was coming back yesterday, so he was not polite when he received the call. He said that the Marshal's Mansion had built a new factory after the overseas students returned, and it was very busy there. He had to go there after accepting the appointment, and asked Qin Xiaoyun to return to the foreign company to work as soon as possible.
Qin Xiaoyun hung up the phone and slapped her right hand, saying, "You have such naughty hands, why are you making a phone call for no reason!"
She didn't know what the situation was at the factory, so she wasn't in a hurry to find Xiao Wenjun for the time being.
After asking Aunt Liu, I learned that all the things that were shipped back with the goods have arrived and are being placed in the warehouse.
She took Liu Ma and Li Ma to the warehouse to sort out things.
Pan'er was so excited yesterday that she didn't fall asleep until midnight, and now she is still sleeping soundly in her room.
Aunt Liu has been with her for a long time and treats her as her own child. But they are servants after all, and she is afraid that Qin Xiaoyun, the master, will be unhappy, so she can't help but nag a few words.
Qin Xiaoyun directed the two to sort out the things, and asked Liu Ma to remember which things should be sent to which family, which things belonged to them, and which things needed to be put away.
The car was originally used by Fang Yulan, but she returned it yesterday when she knew Qin Xiaoyun had returned.
Seeing that it was still early, Aunt Liu delivered the gifts to Qin Qinghai's family opposite and Mrs. Zheng's family next door.
When he came back and saw that Pan'er had already gotten up, he asked Qin Xiaoyun, "Miss, do you want to go to the old house and sit for a while now?"
Qin Xiaoyun glanced at the time. It was not yet eleven o'clock, so she said, "Go ahead. I missed my cousin's wedding last year, so I have to go and see my aunt and my sister-in-law."
Aunt Liu quickly took all the things to the car. After putting them away, she remembered that He Nan was not there!
In the end, Qin Xiaoyun drove the car herself, while Liu Ma and Pan'er sat in the back seat nervously.
There were only women and a few children who had not yet gone to school at the old house. After a few pleasantries, the aunt affectionately took the girl next to her and introduced her to her.
The sister-in-law had a small white face, and her temperament and appearance were similar, but she was very sweet-mouthed to my aunt.
It can be seen that the aunt likes this little white flower very much, especially after the little white flower took the initiative to find an experienced midwife to feel her belly and confirmed that she was pregnant with a boy, the aunt was even more satisfied with the little white flower.
Qin Xiaoyun glanced at her second cousin's wife secretly, and saw that her face was full of resentment and sorrow.
After returning, Pan'er told her the news she heard in the old house. It turned out that her second cousin had now taken a third concubine. The first two concubines each gave birth to a son in the first half of the year, and the latest one was also said to be pregnant with a son.
It has been more than a year since my second cousin’s wife gave birth. I heard that she has taken a lot of tonic medicine, but there has been no movement in her stomach. And if it weren’t for the Qin family rules, my second cousin would not have been impatient to enter his wife’s room.
Qin Xiaoyun's relationship with the couple is really average, so she naturally wouldn't meddle in their affairs.
After taking a nap, she asked Liu Ma to take her to Chang's place in the back.
Since she had a foster mother, the most she did was to send them a copy when she sent things home. Although they would occasionally communicate later, they were strangers who had never met each other after all, and even the letters they wrote could only be polite and dry.
If the person was still in You County, she could delay and wait until her younger brothers and sisters were free before going to pay their respects, but the person lived nearby, and it would be impolite not to pay her respects.
As soon as she entered the room, Aunt Liu said to the woman who was holding her child and coaxing him, "Madam, the eldest daughter is here to see you."
"Ah? Yun, Yun'er, you're here?" The woman didn't seem to be very good at communicating with others. Seeing Qin Xiaoyun, she, the host, was even more reserved than Qin Xiaoyun.
Qin Xiaoyun smiled and walked forward to greet her, "Mother, I'm back. I should have come to see you yesterday, but I was too tired and didn't pay attention to the time and fell asleep."
"Hey, it's okay, come back after you have rested, hehe..."
Chang had been a widow for many years, and her uncle's family next door was also not easy to deal with, so her life was not happy. She had a wooden face all year round, looking serious and miserable.
After moving to Qingcheng, he was away from all the gossips and with his daughter and granddaughter by his side, his life became more comfortable and his sad expression naturally disappeared, but that serious face could not turn into a smile.
The child seemed to be feeling a little uncomfortable, as he kept whining.
Qin Xiaoyun stretched her head to take a look and asked, "Is this the second child of my second sister's family?"
"Oh, it's the second child. The older one is still sleeping upstairs. Children like to sleep as they grow." Chang quickly pulled down the quilt in her arms, revealing the child's face to Qin Xiaoyun.
Qin Xiaoyun took the opportunity to check the child and said, "The child may have a fever. He can't be wrapped like this."
Then he explained how to distinguish between hot and cold and what measures to take accordingly.
"If you don't understand, you can go to the hospital to see a doctor. Don't rely on the experience of the elderly to delay the child's treatment."
Chang said she remembered it, and then asked the servant to take the child downstairs to change his clothes.
When he turned around, he realized that Qin Xiaoyun was still standing, and then he couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "Hey, look at my brain, Xiaoyun, hurry up and sit down, I'll make you some tea."
The tea was half brewed when the older child upstairs started crying again, so Chang hurried upstairs again.
After a while, the servant came out carrying the child who had been changed into clothes. Seeing that there was no tea on the table yet, she left the child to Liu Ma and went into the kitchen.
After removing the blanket and changing the clothes, the child became much calmer and stopped whining.
