Chapter 73
Chapter 73
The answer was not so obvious.
After Yi Qingju apologized in various ways, Zhou Yi barely forgave her tardiness.
Honestly, at first she thought Yi Qingju was deliberately ignoring her, trying to show her a warning.
Of course, this idea was immediately dismissed by the words 'this servant is late'.
"So who are you handing over the pig farm to now?"
Yi Qingju refilled her red tea, then said, "I've handed it over to An De, who has been my deputy all along, but he's not very good at adapting to the company's affairs, so I've given him full authority to manage the pig farm."
After briefly understanding the situation and carefully reviewing the contract, Zhou Yi promptly signed her name on it, then said confidently, "Let's set a small goal first, to go public by the end of the year. Can you do it?"
Yi Qingju: "...Yes."
They haven't even found all the talent yet, she thought.
Zhou Yi slammed her hand on the table and stood up: "Your voice is not loud enough! Let me hear your determination!!"
Yi Qingju stood up, raised her hand, and shouted with full passion: "Yes! Yes! Yes! I can do it!!"
Qi Weiran, who happened to pass by to check on their status: "......"
Wan Sui, who was suddenly startled, said: "I think the lady is really fine now..."
The two of them looked as confused as a little white rabbit that had wandered into a pyramid scheme organization.
...
Yi Qingju didn't stay busy for too long. After talking with Zhou Yi, when she looked up, it was already time for Qi Xinian to get out of kindergarten.
She remembered Qi Weiran said there would be a driver to pick him up, and as soon as she walked out the door, she saw the Qi family's car.
"Go to the kindergarten, Uncle Li, thanks."
After waiting for a while without receiving a response, Yi Qingju looked up.
And she met those amber eyes watching her through the rearview mirror.
Yi Qingju: "......Sir!?"
[Has the Qi family gone bankrupt, so you're working as a driver to make extra money?]
Qi Weiran: "......"
Sometimes he really wanted to open up Yi Qingju's brain and see how her thought process worked.
But apparently, Yi Qingju was not the only one in shock, Qi Xinian who got in the car was too.
"Little uncle... why are you driving yourself, are we so poor that we can't even afford a driver now?"
As Yi Qingju handed him his backpack, Qi Xinian looked up at those familiar eyes in the rearview mirror.
Then he tentatively said, "Or Uncle Li, did you wear colored contacts today?"
Yi Qingju almost laughed out loud.
Qi Weiran said in a flat tone, his eyes blank: "The Qi family is doing well."
After he said that, both the big one and the little one were immediately relieved.
[So Qi Weiran can actually drive!]
Qi Weiran: I got my driver's license abroad when I was sixteen, thank you.
"The photography team from last time will be coming to the house today."
He suddenly said.
Qi Xinian exclaimed excitedly: "To take a family portrait!?"
Qi Weiran gave a low "hmm".
Yi Qingju thought: [It's over, Zhou Yi will never get to see Qi Weiran's divine teenage to elderly portraits in her lifetime.]
Qi Weiran: "......"
She better give up on that idea.
Although the team Qi Weiran hired was a top-notch domestic team, he did not require any particular attire or makeup.
He just wanted to take a photo that was as natural and warm as possible.
"Then can I wear my Ultraman T-shirt and ride on Yi Qingju's neck!?"
If it's supposed to be warm and natural...
Yi Qingju took him aside with a smile: "You can, if you don't mind your little butt swelling up higher than your little flower!"
Qi Xinian: "......That Ultraman T-shirt."
"Of course you can, my lovely child." She smiled kindly.
Smiling in a way that gave Qi Xinian goosebumps.
[Oh my god! Qi Weiran actually has casual clothes!!]
Yi Qingju looked at the man in front of her, wearing a loose white shirt and casual pants, with an expression of disbelief.
[Who would have thought the first time I saw that row after row of black and white suits in the fitting room, his expression would be like this.]
[Wow, this is such a fresh look for Qi Weiran, just like a freshly baked college boy!]
Qi Weiran: "......"
So now instead of animal analogies, we're using food, right?
Watching Qi Weiran carefully holding Little Zhi Zhi and placing it on his shoulder, Yi Qingju felt an inexplicable amusement and asked, "Sir, can I also bring Little Flower over?"
Little Flower was the baby of Big Black Pig Flower.
Qi Xinian immediately raised his hand: "Me me me me! I'll carry her!"
After all, he had fed her so many times that he had developed a deep revolutionary friendship with Little Flower.
Qi Weiran nodded, then looked at Auntie Zhang: "Auntie Zhang, aren't you going to get ready?"
Originally just watching the commotion, Auntie Zhang was taken aback: "Ah, am I also going to be in the photo?"
Perhaps it was because she was getting older, and her emotions were easily stirred.
These two children, one she had watched grow up, and the other she had watched marry into the family.
This was the Qi family, and it was also her home.
"Okay okay, it's perfect timing actually, the lady just gave me a pair of pearl earrings, I'll put them on."
She smiled, took off her apron, and turned to change her clothes.
The other servants looked on enviously.
There is nothing warmer than giving your heart to the people who treat you like family in return.
With Auntie Zhang sitting in the middle, Qi Weiran and Yi Qingju standing behind her, Qi Xinian finally standing by Yi Qingju's leg holding her hand, and next to him was Little Flower, whom he had tied a bow around its neck, staring blankly at the camera with its pig face.
"Okay, three - two - one eggplant!"
At the last moment, Little Zhi Zhi proudly raised its head.
It was a noble turtle from a wealthy family!
They took several shots, and finally chose one that everyone liked, planning to frame it and hang it in the living room.
Only one photo, where Qi Weiran's gaze was directed at Yi Qingju, was privately kept by him.
Hmm, put it in the office, next to Hello Weiran.
Seeing Yi Qingju still looking at the photos, Auntie Zhang quietly pulled aside Qi Xinian, who was playing with Little Flower, and asked in a low voice, "Dumpling, did you buy something? There were people delivering a lot of packages to the house today."
Qi Xinian's eyes lit up.
It was his spicy snacks.
"Auntie Zhang, you didn't see those things, did you?"
Auntie Zhang smiled and patted his head: "Little kid, you have your own secrets now that you're growing up. Don't worry, I put everything in the storage room in your bedroom, I didn't look."
Qi Xinian immediately flashed a sweet smile, hugging Auntie Zhang's leg and acting cute, making the old lady laugh heartily.
The originally dull-looking Little Flower saw the half Q-bouncy butt swaying in front of her.
So, it raised one of its hooves and pressed it onto that half.
Qi Xinian froze, and as the seemingly dull Little Flower pressed down on the other cheek, he pouted and immediately went to tattle on Yi Qingju: "Yi Qingju! Little Flower touched my butt!"
After checking and seeing only two hoof prints but no signs of injury, Yi Qingju was relieved.
"Did you provoke it again?"
Qi Xinian lied: "No!"
Seeing Yi Qingju's disbelief, he immediately pouted and changed the subject: "Why do people have two butt cheeks?"
Yi Qingju patted the dust off his bottom.
[Children really do ask a million whys, always asking the strangest questions, so cute.]
She immediately thought about it and answered: "Because one cheek honors freedom, and one cheeks honors death."
Qi Weiran: "......"
You can come up with an answer like that and say it so seriously, you're quite cute too.
Really....
