Chapter 180 Zhou Si Who Can't Come Back
Su Luo squatted down, smiled and pinched his face, "Children, don't meddle in adults' affairs."
"I like you to be my mother." Qin Qi said seriously, "I don't remember what my mother looks like, but she must be very good to me, just like you."
Su Luo nodded vigorously, "It must be better than me."
Qin Qi lowered his head and whispered, "Do grandma and aunt hate my uncle? In fact, my uncle is also very good to me. He always comes to see me. When he doesn't have time to come, he will ask someone to bring me fun things. I don't want them to hate him."
Su Luo asked in surprise: "Do you understand what 'hate' is?"
"I just hate it and don't like it." Qin Qi's face gradually dimmed. "My uncle is just unhappy because my mother died. He thinks it was my father who killed my mother."
Su Luo sighed secretly. How could the grudges between adults not affect the children? Qin Qi was still young and could not understand what true hatred was. When he grew up, he would be more miserable than now, because he was the only one who had a relationship with both Qin and Wan's families.
"Don't worry." Su Luo patted Qin Qi's face. "Your father decided to stay in the capital because he wanted to end things with your uncle. Tell me, do you hate your father?"
Qin Qi didn't nod or shake his head, "I miss my mother, but...if my mother didn't marry my father, I wouldn't exist, right?"
Su Luo didn't know how to answer for a moment. She couldn't figure out what Qin Qi was thinking. She thought Qin Qi didn't understand anything and knew nothing. But it turned out that Qin Qi not only knew, but also had his own explanation.
"You don't need to care about anything now." Su Luo spoke seriously for the first time. "You just need to know that no matter whether it is your parents, your grandmother, your aunt, or your uncle, no matter how much they dislike each other, they all like you and love you. Because of you, they will resolve all their grudges."
Qin Qi stared at Su Luo, not quite understanding, "Am I important?"
Su Luo nodded, "Of course."
Qin Qi grinned and said, "I haven't seen my uncle for a long time. Can you tell him that I'm here and ask him to come and see me?"
"Okay." Su Luo agreed immediately. She looked at Qin Qi and suddenly felt that if the feud between the Qin and Wan families was to be resolved, perhaps the key really lay with Qin Qi.
After returning to the Princess' Mansion, Su Luo couldn't wait to ask Su Jiang what Qin Qing's plans were. Su Jiang actually knew a lot. Although Qin Huai had closed branches in various places, he retained the store in Zhuxian Town, and the favors he had made in the past were still there. It would not be difficult to establish the Qin's brand in the capital. The only obstacle was Wan Yangui, who would not let Qin Huai open a store too easily.
It's not "should", Su Luo thought, but Wan Yangui "will definitely" not let Qin Huai open a store smoothly. Qin Huai was obviously prepared and ready to take the challenge - he was forcing Wan Yangui to take action, so as to completely resolve the feud between the Qin and Wan families.
This really has the meaning of "knowing there is a tiger in the mountain, but still going there". Su Luo said that she was not worried, but it was a lie. So from the second day, she stuck to Qin Huai so that she could monitor him at any time. Su Luo went to find Wan Yangui in person, but Wan Yangui refused to see her. Su Luo had no choice but to leave a message and convey Qin Qi's words.
Su Luo didn't know whether Wan Yangui went to find Qin Qi. She only knew that Liu Chengxuan had been very quiet since the coral tree incident. She didn't know if he was planning a bigger conspiracy. Anyway, he was quiet for now and no longer thought of any tricks to destroy the reputation of Su Luo's clothing store. Instead, the two companies peacefully divided the market. There were many rich people in Beijing, and this market was also very large. One company could definitely not take in all the customers.
In the blink of an eye, it was already April. The Spring Examination was over, and all the students stayed in the capital to wait for the results. During this period, Zhou Chongwen came to see Su Luo twice. After a long time of reunion, the old feelings seemed to return. Su Luo and Zhou Chongwen became casual again, which made Su Luo in a good mood.
Zhou Si did well in the exam and seemed very confident. Su Luo also believed in his ability. After all, this guy would only cause trouble if he did other things, and reading and writing were his best.
Su Luo had mentioned that Zhou Si should move to the Princess's Mansion , saying that it was never as convenient to live in someone else's home as in one's own. Zhou Si also felt that the exam was over and it was time to go home, so he said he would go back to pack his luggage and say goodbye to his master. Unexpectedly, when he came back in the afternoon, he not only brought back his luggage, but also brought back a living person.
Su Luo pointed at Zeng Xinrou and said with a surprised smile: "So she is here too."
The implication of Su Luo's words made Zhou Si feel embarrassed, "Miss Zeng is here to visit relatives."
Su Luo nodded. Needless to say, the relative they were visiting was the one where Zhou Si lived.
"But it's okay for you to come back. It's not convenient for her to come and live here too, right?"
This is not convenient at all. If an unmarried girl follows her man to live in someone else's house, Zeng Xinrou will be dead if this gets out.
Zeng Xinrou still looked weak and frail, and smiled faintly, "Boss Su misunderstood. I just came to say hello to Boss Su and discuss whether Brother Zhou can come over later."
What do you mean? Su Luo looked at Zhou Chongwen, who was getting anxious. "Xinrou, you said you wanted to come over and meet Luo'er, but you didn't tell me anything else."
Zeng Xinrou smiled and said, "Brother Zhou has never known how to refuse others. If I tell you, it will only embarrass you. It is better to discuss it directly with Boss Su. The results will be announced soon. If you leave now, my relatives will think you are not kind enough."
Su Luo nodded, "So I am an 'outsider'."
Zeng Xinrou said calmly, "Brother Zhou is alone, with no relatives or family. To him, who is not an outsider?"
Su Luo felt very uncomfortable when hearing this, but Zeng Xinrou's words made sense. If Zhou Si made it to the list, the place where he lived would also be blessed with good fortune and his value would double. This was also the reason why some innkeepers specifically took in some poor candidates. Who knows who would pass the exam, and a few meals in exchange for a lifetime of gratitude from the Jinshi master, and it could also attract batches of candidates who wanted to get some good fortune. This business was worth it no matter how it was run. Similarly, some scholars also liked this, it was an honor.
However, Su Luo firmly believed that Zhou Chongwen had not thought about these things before he left, because this guy simply could not think of anything else. He might still be thinking about going back to express his gratitude after he graduates from high school.
As expected, Zhou Si opened his mouth and said, "I want to wait until the results are announced before going back to thank you..."
"It's always rude."
Zeng Xinrou still made Zhou Si embarrassed. Su Luo secretly shook his head. Zeng Xinrou was very vigilant. Not only did she come from afar to accompany him in the exam, but she also wanted to eliminate all the women around Zhou Si.
