Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 81
After Xiao Chenyu got up and washed up, he went to pay his regards to Mrs. Su. Mrs. Su had been looking a little gloomy for the past two days, but she finally felt a little happier when she saw the smiling Xiao Chenyu.

Xiao Chenyu was very good at making Mrs. Su happy, but it could also be seen that Mrs. Su was forcing her smile.

After returning home, she suggested to Qin Xian that she should just open a small shop and hand it over to her mother-in-law, so that she could try to do something on her own. This would not only kill time, but also allow her to find her self-confidence and see more people and things outside. Her horizons can also be broadened.

This suggestion made Qin Xiang excited, and she discussed it with Xiao Chenyu: "When I was young, my mother hired an embroidery master to teach me how to work. Unfortunately, I didn't like it, but my mother followed her for several years, and she was here She does have some talents and interests, why not open a clothing store for her?"

"Let's ask my mother-in-law what she means." Xiao Chenyu reached out and pinched her cheek, jokingly saying: "Actually, you mother and daughter are very similar in this regard. They both like to make their own decisions, and they both think for the best of each other."

After saying this, Qin Xi suddenly realized that this was indeed the case. She hid everything from her mother, thinking that she could protect her and that her mother only needed to live a stable life at home. In fact, she rarely thought about what her mother was thinking. What?What does she want?
"Actually, I'm very similar to my father in my bones. I'm very selfish. I only have myself in my eyes. If she wasn't my biological mother, I'm afraid I would get rid of her like a burden."

"No, you are different. Your mother-in-law did drag you down, but you didn't get rid of her. You see, you also helped a lot of people, including Aunt Sang, Lian'er's family, Lanhua, Li Siniang, etc. In their hearts, you are a good person."

Qin Xiang laughed at herself. Faced with such gratitude, she felt that she deserved it. She was just the result of calculation. These people were all useful to her.

Seeing Qin Xiang's expression, Xiao Chenyu also felt a little distressed, and said: "Then let me ask you, if one day you need to sacrifice them to protect yourself, will you do it as a matter of course and with a clear conscience?"

Qin Xiang was silent. Even though she had experienced many hardships, her heart had never been so hardened. Especially when faced with kindness and gratitude, Qin Xiang wanted to escape more than accept it happily.

She was afraid that she would become weak, afraid that she would become pure and kind, and she was afraid that she would become that woman who could be bullied by anyone again.

But since having Xiao Chenyu, her heart seems to have slowly become calmer and softer.She was willing to tell Xiao Chenyu everything in detail. In addition to Xiao Chenyu's ability to analyze calmly and objectively, she also began to trust Xiao Chenyu.

This feeling of trusting someone wholeheartedly is actually not bad.

"Say." Qin Xiang suddenly started, then stopped abruptly, biting her lower lip to swallow the rest of her words.

Xiao Chenyu looked down at her with questioning eyes.

"What do you think of my mother getting married in a dignified manner?" Qin Xiang thought of something, so she came up with this idea.

When she was about four or five years old, Qin Xiang was very dependent on Su, always following in and out. As long as Qin Xiongfei didn't come, she would sleep with her mother.

One night, Qin Xian woke up in a daze and saw Mrs. Su sitting under the lamp, holding a piece of clothing in a daze.

Qin Xiang remembered this the next day, and while Su was out shopping for groceries, she discovered this bright red dress embroidered with gold thread patterns under the wardrobe.

After Su returned home, she found the red clothes that had been turned out, and her face immediately turned red. That was the first and only time she hit Qin Xiang, so Qin Xiang remembered it deeply.

But Qin Xiang didn't know what kind of clothes it was before, but she never saw it again, but now she understands that it is a wedding dress.

The sedan chair and wedding dress, this must be the knot that is buried deepest in Su's heart.The daughter's words to let her mother get married were a little too much, but Xiao Chenyu had the ability to tolerate Qin Xiang. No matter what Qin Xiang said, he would not be surprised.

After listening to Qin Xiang talk about this incident in her childhood, she nodded and thought deeply. After a while, she said: "This matter needs to be considered in the long run. My mother-in-law is not old, so it is not a bad idea."

"You, don't you feel bad?" Qin Xiang felt moved and warm in her heart, and she raised her eyes to look at Xiao Chenyu.

"What's wrong? If there is a suitable candidate now, we will organize a wedding for my mother-in-law right away."

When it came to the candidate, Qin Xiang's eyes suddenly lit up, and the next moment she frowned sadly and said: "As for the candidate, there is actually one, but he has already left, alas!"

"Who?" Xiao Chenyu asked.

"My husband was already very old when he came to our house. There was a man who always took care of him. I call him Uncle Qi. This man was somewhat skilled. He always took care of me, but he called my husband "sir" instead of "sir." Slave relationship. When I was young, I never wondered about this. However, Uncle Qi is very good to my mother, and Uncle Qi does all the hard work in the house."

However, due to the restriction of Su's status, the two did not have much conversation. Uncle Qi spent almost all the time in the backyard except for necessary work.

"Where is he now?" Xiao Chenyu was also a little curious about this person.

"I escorted Mr. Qi back to his hometown years ago." Qin Xiang could think of Uncle Qi. In fact, among her limited acquaintances, only Uncle Qi was a trustworthy character. He was about the same age as her mother and had no family. He was truly the best candidate. Unfortunately, he is gone.

The two of them chatted for a long time, and the days passed very quickly. On the morning of the second day, Xiao Chenyu went to the academy again under the moonlight and starlight. He also had his own way to go, and he had to accumulate his own strength to protect him. He had to live in this home. Although he felt sorry for Qin Xiang and was worried about Qin Xiang, he had to leave her.

The next day, an old gentleman came to the house. He was the teacher Xiao Chenyu asked his classmates to invite. Although he was not young, he was just an old boy, but his knowledge was really solid. However, he was unlucky and did not even become a scholar. Now, even if you go to a private school, you can't do it. You can only teach children in the countryside.

However, Shu Xiu's salary was very meager and it was difficult to support his family. After hearing that he was hiring a gentleman with money, he immediately packed up and came.

Because Qin Xian's previous husband was also older, she couldn't say no to the old man in front of her who looked a little down and out. She could only say to stay and give it a try.

Anyway, these people don't need to learn advanced knowledge, as long as they can read and write.

Therefore, from then on, everyone in the family who needed to go to school had to get up an hour early in the morning to study.

For the 22 apprentices who signed the contract of renunciation, Qin Xiang also gave hope that as long as they can do well in the things they are responsible for, they will have opportunities for rewards and promotions. When they pass the assessment in all aspects in the future, they can be promoted from apprentice to apprentice. Just like Lian'er, you can learn a complete fragrance mixing technique, instead of just completing one of them like now.

Qin Xiong flew over very suddenly. Qin Xiang was teaching the apprentices in the incense room. Li Siniang came to say that Qin Xiong's father was here. A piece of spice in Qin Xiong's hand fell to the ground with a snapping sound.
