Knowing that his daughter had come from her two sons' place and hadn't even had lunch, Father Wen felt so distressed that he quickly put away the wine and snacks and prepared to make lunch for Wen Qin.

Jie Mingxia couldn't stand it anymore and stopped him: "Dad, please chat with Wen Qin for a while."

Father Wen smiled flatteringly: "My daughter, I really don't mean to lie to you. It's just that you know your three brothers. If you don't give them some encouragement, they won't know how to live a good life. Forget about your eldest brother, at least he has your eldest sister-in-law to take care of him now. As for your second and third brothers, you can't just leave them alone, right?"

Wen Qin was picking up peanuts with chopsticks and eating them, not wanting to pay attention to her father for a moment.

"Let's not talk about anything else first. Dad, have your brothers discussed with you how they are going to make a living in the capital?"

Seeing Wen Qin like this, Father Wen knew that she was just pretending to be angry, and his back straightened immediately: "Hey, hey, hey, my daughter, leave some peanuts for me."

When they enjoyed the meal with side dishes and drank some wine again, Father Wen exclaimed, it was so wonderful that he couldn't express it in words.

"Hey, don't say that I, as a father, don't care about them. I raised them to this age. I made sure they had everything they needed, including a house and household registration. They also learned a lot from me about how to make a living. But at the end of the day, they told me that they still had no other choice but to rely on their own abilities to survive. My daughter, do you think this is my problem?"

Wen Qin had to admit that what Father Wen said was right.

But Wen Qin herself couldn't stop worrying. She owed them too much in her previous life. She would always feel uneasy if she didn't arrange everything for them.

"Dad, did you know that Third Brother has a lover?" Wen Qin could only talk about this with Old Man Wen.

Old Man Wen almost subconsciously looked towards the kitchen. Looking at Jie Mingxia's back, Wen Qin immediately understood that Old Man Wen knew what Wen He was thinking.

"Dad, you are so bad." Wen Qin frowned, "You know what Third Brother is thinking, but you didn't tell them earlier. Now they are separated. Maybe this plan will fail?"

Father Wen snorted coldly, "You've grown so big for nothing. Don't you know whether you like a girl or not? When I first fell in love with your mother, I took action immediately. I was afraid that it would be too late and your mother would run away with someone else. He doesn't want a wife, but he wants me to cover for him."

Thinking about the unknown thoughts of Uncle Xu at the time, it is hard to say what would have happened if Father Wen had acted later.

Father Wen almost poured wine for his daughter with shaking hands, but luckily he realized something was wrong and took it back: "What about Guiqiu? I have seen her for the past two years. She is really wronged to be paired with your third brother."

Wen Qin pushed Old Man Wen and said, "How can you say that about your own son?"

Father Wen sneered: "You and Guiqiu had a very unhappy quarrel at first, right?"

Wen Qin frowned: "That matter is in the past."

Father Wen poked his head in to make sure Jie Mingxia wasn't listening, then continued, "Others may not know you, but I know you? You look carefree and you really don't bother with others. But in fact, you have always kept it in your little notebook in your heart."

Wen Qin pouted: "Why are you now criticizing your own daughter after criticizing your son? Xie Guiqiu is just that good."

Father Wen sighed, "That girl must have offended you so badly that she didn't even know it. Otherwise, with your carefree attitude, how could you really forget about her?"

Wen Qin slammed her chopsticks on the table and said, "You are so upset for her. Why don't you just take her back and make her your daughter?"

Father Wen just stared at Wen Qin like this until Wen Qin finally gave in: "Okay, okay, I admit that I did it on purpose. I just didn't want her to come along. Okay?"

Father Wen laughed: "If I didn't know that you were still angry, why would I not remind Wen He at all?"

Wen Qin rolled her eyes and looked up at the sky. She felt that her father was really annoying.

"Gui Qiu was somewhat naive in the past. I have also heard those rumors. You are my daughter, so I will definitely stand on your side. But what about Jie Mingxia? Even he did not stand on Jie Guiqiu's side. I know that the conflict between you two sisters-in-law was probably not as bad as the rumors said."

Father Wen patted the back of Wen Qin's hand and said, "My son-in-law is reasonable. No matter what happened in the past, since he didn't say anything, it's probably to let you let go of your anger. Besides, you don't have to come to the imperial capital to live a good life. Maybe she can live a better life in the south."

Father Wen sighed, "So there's no need to expose Wen He's thoughts. If he and that girl are destined to be together, after all, you and Jie Mingxia are between them, so they won't lose contact. If they're not destined to be together, he didn't want to go back after they broke up, so let it be. I think the girl is just average to him. Maybe someone else has a better marriage."

"My girl, since you forgave Jie Guiqiu without Jie Mingxia, there is no need to make yourself unhappy for your brother. The thoughts of young people are not that important."

Xie Mingxia brought out the dishes. The two had long finished talking about Xie Guiqiu and turned to talk about Old Man Wen's plan.

Wen Qin envies Old Man Wen’s retirement life, as Old Man Wen doesn’t feel like he needs a rest yet.

"I've been around the neighborhood. Many brothers who are about my age have children who are getting ready to get married and have kids, so their houses need to be renovated. The old guys have done a good job at home, so I won't ask them to move. But I've met a few old brothers here, and their skills are amazing," said Old Man Wen happily.

It seems that it doesn't matter if the construction team's work is given away, because Father Wen is already preparing to switch to interior decoration.

Well, there’s no need to worry about the brothers losing their jobs. It seems like the life of a rich second generation is here to stay anyway.

After eating and drinking at Old Man Wen's house, Jie Mingxia walked slowly holding Wen Qin's hand.

The street lights that had been erected on both sides of the road at some point illuminated the surroundings. Wen Qin pulled her scarf and opened her mouth, but didn't utter a word.

Xie Mingxia turned to look at her: "What? Do you have anything to say to me?"

Wen Qin looked at Jie Mingxia and seemed to have finally made up her mind: "Why don't we bring Gui Qiu over?"

Xie Mingxia was a little surprised: "Why do you suddenly want to take her over again?"

Wen Qin raised her eyebrows: "After I give birth, will I still let my elder sister and my elder sister-in-law take care of me during the confinement period? Aren't you from the Xie family prepared to help at this time?"

Xie Mingxia stared at Wen Qin for a long time. Under the streetlight, his long eyelashes seemed to cast a long shadow on his lower eyelid. Then he suddenly smiled: "Okay, wait until you are about to give birth and then pick her up. I'll send her back after the confinement period."

Wen Qin couldn't help but kick him: "Why are you being so sarcastic?"
