Chapter 138 Successful Persuasion
When Qin Dajiang woke up, he saw that Qin Dahe was still fast asleep, so he didn't wake him. He went to the next room and saw that his three little nephews had already woken up. He happily hugged one and then another.
Qin Yingxue was breastfeeding her third son when she saw Qin Dajiang manage to hold one baby in each arm in just ten minutes. Her smile stretched from ear to ear, and she was happy to hear him ask, "Second brother, how much can you earn a day if you go to Qian Xiaofeng's place to get goods?"
"I can make three or five yuan, and on good days I can make ten yuan." When talking about making money, Qin Dajiang's smile lingered. "When I was on the train, I heard a lot of people talking about how the policies outside the country have loosened, and many people are giving up their secure jobs this year to go into business. Little sister, does going into business mean starting a business?"
Qin Yingxue raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Second brother actually knows about going into business?"
"I heard it from someone else," Qin Dajiang said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Little sister, don't let your second brother fool you." Qin Dahe rubbed his eyes as he came in from outside. "When your second brother heard that there was business to be done outside, he kept asking people all the way, and they got impatient, but he pretended not to see it. As soon as the train arrived at the station, that person slipped away faster than anyone else, afraid that he would be pestered by our second brother again."
"Qin Dahe, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute." Qin Dajiang was embarrassed after Qin Dajiang exposed his secret.
If he weren't holding a child, he would definitely have pulled one of his ears off.
I've told them this so many times, but in the end it still didn't work.
"Second brother, it's good that you have such a persistent spirit. Third brother, even second brother knows how to be ambitious, why are you so clueless?" Qin Yingxue said deliberately, looking at Qin Dahe.
"I do wholesale with Qian Xiaofeng, and I can earn two or three hundred a month. Why would I bother asking about these things?" Qin Dahe said nonchalantly.
Qin Yingxue felt that she needed to hurry up and take Qin Dahe to see the real world, so that he wouldn't remain a frog in a well.
"Little sister, we've seen the child. Dahe and I plan to take the bus back tonight," Qin Dajiang said, holding the baby with a reluctant expression.
The moment the thought of going back was mentioned, the light on Qin Dahe's face vanished. He took the eldest child from Qin Dajiang's arms, lowered his head, and played with the baby, concealing the sadness on his face.
Qin Yingxue took in the expressions on their faces and pretended to be troubled: "Why did you go back so soon? I was thinking of taking you to the beach tomorrow! By the way, I heard from Bai Haijian that he's going to go beachcombing tomorrow morning, and he'll probably make another hundred or two..."
"What? You can earn a hundred or two hundred a day?" Qin Dahe suddenly looked up and exclaimed in surprise at Qin Yingxue.
Even Qin Dajiang perked up his ears.
"It wasn't just one day..." Qin Yingxue said deliberately slowly, "It was one morning."
"Such a good thing? Little sister, can I go tomorrow?" Qin Dahe, holding the baby, moved to Qin Yingxue's side and asked with a hopeful expression.
Qin Yingxue did not answer him, but looked at Qin Dajiang instead.
Qin Dajiang immediately understood and quickly said, "We can go back a day later, since we haven't bought train tickets yet."
"Then I'll take you to see it tomorrow." Qin Yingxue smiled immediately.
“You don’t need your sister to help. You stay home and look after the baby. We’ll go ourselves,” Qin Dahe said quickly. “On the way here, that guy named Xiao Zhou already told us that the Bai brothers you and Yan Chuan are taking care of are from that village. We’ll go find him then…”
"Yes, you've just finished your postpartum period, you still need to rest and recuperate properly," Qin Dajiang chimed in.
“I’ve been cooped up at home for over a month. Even when I was pregnant, I didn’t dare to go out. I haven’t been to Baisha Village for more than half a year.” Qin Yingxue had a pitiful expression on her face. “The eldest and second eldest drink milk powder, and the youngest is aggrieved to drink milk powder with the eldest and second eldest. I only go for a morning. I don’t go into the sea. I just watch you guys collect the fish.”
"Alright!" Qin Dahe couldn't bear to see the pitiful expression on Qin Yingxue's face, so he impulsively agreed, which earned him a glare from Qin Dajiang.
Qin Dahe chuckled and said, "Second brother, don't be mean to me. My sister is already pitiful enough because she's pregnant..."
“But you don’t have the right to agree to it. This doesn’t count. Yan Chuan has to agree as well,” Qin Dajiang insisted, sticking to his principles.
"I will naturally agree to whatever Yingxue wants to do." Song Yanchuan, who had arrived at some point, stood at the door and said with a smile.
"Second brother, I told you it would work!" Qin Dahe glanced at Qin Dajiang with a smug look on his face.
Qin Dajiang glared at him helplessly, then said earnestly to Song Yanchuan, "Yingxue is still young, you can't let her do whatever she wants. If you don't take good care of your health now, what will you do when you're old..."
"Second Brother, I just wanted to enjoy the sea view and keep you company." Seeing that Qin Dajiang was getting more and more serious, Qin Yingxue quickly said, "I promise I won't go into the sea, I'm just craving seafood."
"Yingxue, we've made a deal, but once you go into business, you'll stay home and take good care of your health," Song Yanchuan instructed in front of the Qin brothers.
Qin Yingxue naturally understood Song Yanchuan's intention, and nodded seriously, "Okay, let Second Brother and Third Brother supervise."
Although Qin Dajiang was still worried, he stopped hesitating when he saw that the couple had agreed.
Zhu Huiwen cooked dinner, with Song Yanchuan helping out.
There was a bowl of braised pork left over after we distributed the leftovers at noon; we can just heat it up.
I left about half a bowl of garlic abalone, which will be enough to fill two plates after heating it up.
Qin Yingxue's favorite dish was stir-fried rice cakes with yellow crab. Although Zhu Huiwen told her to eat less at lunch, she still left all of it, and there was still a plate left after it was reheated.
With these three dishes, Zhu Huiwen also stir-fried a hand-torn cabbage, a tomato and egg stir-fry, and a cucumber salad.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Yingxue was made to eat a bowl of pork knuckle by Zhu Huiwen. Her stomach was full of oil and she had no appetite.
But when I saw the stir-fried rice cakes with yellow crab, I ate all the rice cakes, and then I ate a little bit of cucumber salad. I didn't eat anything else.
"Why is your sister eating so little?" Qin Dahe asked with concern.
"I ate a bowl of greasy pork knuckle at three o'clock, and I'm still not hungry," Qin Yingxue sighed.
There was no other way; in order to produce more breast milk, she had to force herself to eat large pork knuckles.
Even though I used to like it, after eating it a few times in a row, I got tired of it.
"I'll make Yingxue a bowl of steamed egg custard at ten o'clock, so she won't go to bed on an empty stomach," Zhu Huiwen said with a smile.
"Thank you for taking care of my younger sister, Auntie," Qin Dajiang said with a face full of gratitude.
"Yingxue worked hard to bring forth new generations for our Song family, so it's only right that I do all this. I'm also glad that Yingxue persuaded me to come with her, otherwise I would have been anxiously waiting at home. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to adapt to the lifestyle here, but if you asked me to go back now, I don't think I would be able to adapt at all."
Zhu Huiwen joked.
"Auntie, from now on, wherever your three big, fat grandsons are, that's where your auntie will be. You won't have time to think about Qin Family Village anymore," Qin Dahe said playfully from the side.
