Marrying into a poor family

The gambling house in Fushui Town temporarily slowed down in a strange way.

Everything returned to normal. Xiao Laoliu went back after only a few days of work. After Liu Xi heard about the incident, he went back home and lost his temper fiercely. Finally, Xiao Laoliu became honest. .

Soon after the beginning of autumn, the weather turned cooler again, and the reputation of Qin Xiang's incense workshop gradually spread. In addition to the incense ingots, which were still only supplied to Lu Jiu, other incense products could also be supplied to other merchants.

As for the lonely elderly people and orphans who were taken in in the countryside, some orphans who are not from Xiaojia Village have come to them, just asking for a bite to eat.

"Madam, more and more orphans are coming to our door now. Should we accept some as appropriate, or should we accept none except those from Xiaojiacun?"

"How many people are there?" Qin Xi asked.

"Now there are more than a dozen old people and thirty-two children." Li Siniang said. Because there were so many people, she asked the village chief of Xiaojia Village to find someone to build a temporary house with a bunkhouse inside, separated only for men and women.

Qin Xiang thought for a while and stroked her bulging belly with one hand: "We can't let them eat for free, otherwise they will easily develop the habit of eating too much and being lazy. Besides, teaching a man to fish is not as good as teaching him to fish. He still needs to learn something. It’s the body that matters.”

So, Li Siniang was asked to rent a large yard in Fushui Town, and all the people with the ability to do things moved to the town, and then sorted and sent some simple spices. Everyone would get more for their work and earn a fortune based on their skills. Eat a lot, do a lot of work, and save money.

Qin Shao wrote letters from time to time, telling news about the Qin family in Dancheng: Mrs. Qin Si was banned from leaving her yard by the old lady. Later, Qin Yao went to plead for mercy, and Mrs. Qin Si was allowed to walk in the fourth room.

Mrs. Qin Si was disheartened and married Qin Yao directly. Afterwards, Mrs. Qin Si took the initiative to close the door of her courtyard and never saw outsiders again, nor did she care about Qin Xiongfei who was lying on the bed.

It only took half a year for the fourth room of the Qin family to go from being overwhelmed with joy to being in a state of ecstasy and finally becoming lonely.

After reading the letter, Qin Xiang did not tell Su Shi that all this had nothing to do with Su Shi or herself.

In Su's shop, the first thing that became famous was incense charcoal. Mix the charcoal shavings with honey, add some spice shavings, and shape it into the shape of a double phoenix or a unicorn. When the stove is turned on in the winter, first spread the powdered white sandalwood. Put the incense charcoal under the stove so that it will not mix with other incense charcoal.

This method was also seen in the home of the Prime Minister of the dynasty after Qin Xiang got married in his previous life. Because I like fragrance, I paid special attention to it and asked the hostess how to make it. The hostess was very detailed in order to show off, but she did not explain the specific method. Qin Xiang spent a long time after returning home and finally found several styles. The right spices match.

Xiao Chenyu went to Dancheng to take the exam, while Qin Xiang stayed at home in Qijiang County and was busy working as an incense belt apprentice. Everyone was busy.

The night was already dark, and Qiao Dazhuang and Li Siniang also fell asleep hugging each other.

For some reason, Li Siniang had an uneasy sleep and turned over several times.

"What's wrong with you?" Qiao Dazhuang was finally woken up, and he patted Li Siniang's back in a daze, trying to comfort his wife.

"Hmm!" Li Siniang finally opened her eyes, turned around and lifted up the mosquito net, and looked outside through the window paper, only to see that it was already dark outside.

The next moment, Li Siniang turned over and sat up: "Oh, I forgot to pee my son. He must have wet the bed."

Qiao Dazhuang let go of his wife, turned over and continued to sleep, muttering something in his mouth.

The peaceful morning light was broken by Li Siniang's shrill cry: "Bao'er, Bao'er, where are you?"

Qiao Dazhuang, who was sleeping lightly, was frightened. He rolled over and rushed into the next door room wearing only a pair of trousers. He saw Li Siniang looking around for her son as if she was crazy. There was only a quilt that was randomly lifted on the bed. There are also shadows of children.

Qiao Dazhuang rushed over in two steps and touched the quilt with his hands. It was already freezing. This child didn't look like he had just left the quilt. People around him got up and lit their lamps one after another, and then came out to ask what was going on.
  Li Siniang's son Baoer was lost in the middle of the night.

After getting married, Li Siniang and Qiao Dazhuang moved out to live in the back alley of Qin Xian's house. They brought their children to Qin's house early in the day to work, and the children went to school to sit and play. In the evening, Li Siniang and Qiao Dazhuang went back together, and finally It’s some time and space of your own.

As a newlywed couple, Qiao Dazhuang wanted to be intimate with Li Siniang every night, but Bao'er slept next to him. Li Siniang always felt awkward, which made Qiao Dazhuang unhappy and made him a little uncomfortable.

Seeing this, Li Siniang felt that she could not go on like this, so she bought a bed and placed it in the ear room next to it. It could not only form a space for the couple to be alone, but they could also hear Bao'er's movements immediately.

However, Li Siniang had to wake up in the middle of the night every night to carry Bao'er to drain the water, otherwise she would wet the bed, but this night, Li Siniang did not wake up.

Qiao Dazhuang discovered from a hole in the window lattice that someone put incense in their house in the middle of the night, so they slept like this.

"Go and tell your wife quickly to see what she has in mind." Someone gave the idea and woke up Li Siniang.

The couple quickly put on their clothes and went to Qin's house. On the way, Li Siniang staggered. Qiao Dazhuang reached out to help her, but Li Siniang opened her hands violently. Perhaps she was too panicked and worried, so she spoke indiscriminately.

"It's all your fault. If you hadn't been thinking about that at night, would I have let him sleep in the ear room?"

Qiao Dazhuang paused and gritted his back molars, but he still did not take out his temper on his wife. He only took Li Siniang's arm and said, "You go find your wife first. I'll go to the dock to have a look. Maybe we can still find her." Some clues.”

Li Siniang wanted to call Qiao Dazhuang to stop, but Qiao Dazhuang quickly disappeared at the entrance of the alley.

"Madam, madam, wake up!" Qinggu shook Qin Xiang's arm a few times, finally waking up the sleepy wife.

Qin Xi opened her eyes and asked slightly dissatisfied: "What's wrong?"

"Madam, Sister Siniang is here. She said that Bao'er has been lost. Please give me an idea." Qinggu's voice was anxious. She was really worried about Bao'er and felt sorry for Li Siniang.

"Is Bao'er lost?" Qin Xiang's nasal voice was heavy. Qing Can quickly brought tea over. Qin Xiang took a sip and finally woke up. Her voice became clear again: "Qing Can, change my clothes. Qing Gu, go. Call Li Siniang in."

Li Siniang has never been so embarrassed. She has always been clean and tidy and tidy up meticulously. Now she can be said to be disheveled and extremely embarrassed.

But no one cares about her.

As soon as she came in, she fell to her knees and cried, telling her that Bao'er had been lost.

However, she couldn't provide much information.

But even so, Qin Xiang also knew the urgency of the matter and hurriedly ordered everyone in the family to go out and help search.

Both she and Li Siniang knew who the person who took the child was?
