Chapter 529 What Do You Want in This Life?

Before leaving, the two went to Gu Qingqing's store to buy clothes, and Gu Qingqing was also there.

Tian Mi jokingly said, "Boss Gu, why did you come to the store to help in person?"

Gu Qingqing smiled and replied, "It's winter vacation now, so I came to visit and happened to run into you guys."

It was Uncle Nan's idea that Jiang Yanqiu and the others went to buy land this time. Uncle Nan had taken a fancy to the land that was tendered by the government and had already won it, but his investment was a bit large and the land was also large.

They were afraid that they would not have enough funds in the future, so they brought Nan Wanwu and his family in and gave up part of their land to ensure that his funds could be turned over in the future.

Jiang Yanqiu then remembered that the land over there could be bought and sold, so she decided to buy land there, since she had Uncle Nan and others to help develop it.

Jiang Yanqiu felt that Gu Qingqing must also be interested in the land in the special zone, and more funds would mean more security.

So he invited me enthusiastically: "We have some free time now, we are going to the south to play, do you want to come with us?"

"Okay, we're not busy right now anyway." Gu Qingqing agreed without thinking. She also wanted to go to the south to see if she could buy some land.

Gu Qingqing did not hide the land purchase from Jiang Yanqiu and the others, and asked Jiang Yanqiu and the others to ask Uncle Nan if he had any suitable recommendations.

If you are not familiar with the place, people will not trust you easily. If it is a government bidding, it is estimated that the funding will be huge, so it is better to find an acquaintance to introduce you.

Uncle Nan and his family live close to the Special Administrative Region, so they must have acquaintances there.

This was exactly what Jiang Yanqiu wanted, so she didn't even have to invite Gu Qingqing to join her.

However, she did not agree immediately. Instead, she said that she would go back and ask Chu Tingnan to call and ask before calling Gu Qingqing.

After that, the few of them stopped talking about buying land and started happily discussing going to the south.

What clothes to wear, what delicious food to eat, and where to go for fun.

After chatting for a while, Gu Qingqing started gossiping: "Shen Shuyan brought a woman to buy clothes just now. I guess he's going to find a partner!"

When Tian Mi heard this, she immediately complained, "He's already in his early thirties, it's time for him to find a partner. But he's so picky, what kind of partner is he with?"

Gu Qingqing answered seriously: "Not bad, quite tall and in good shape."

As for whether it looks good or not, since she doesn't like this type of thing, she can't comment on it.

After Qiao Lei disappeared, Shen Shuyan was admitted to the School of Political Science and Law, and he was also very loyal to the Qiao family.

So he became a popular guy in the compound, and many girls were chasing after him.

He has been on blind dates with many people, including Jiang Yanqiu's old acquaintances Zhou Qianru and Tian Cheng.

Mother Shen is not picky, as long as she is a woman. Uncle Shen is almost forty years old and still hasn't settled down. She doesn't want Shen Shuyan to follow in his footsteps.

So as long as someone asked, Shen's mother would agree to let them meet each other.

However, Shen Shuyan didn't like any of them and went to Qiao's Hotpot Restaurant to help from time to time.

Whenever Qiao's Hotpot Restaurant encountered trouble, he was the one who helped solve it.

He even moved the household registration of Qiao Lei's eldest brother Qiao Dong and his family to the imperial capital, and transferred Qiao Dong and his wife to work in a factory here.

Everyone thought that he couldn't let go of Qiao Lei, and that if she married him she would have to be responsible for the Qiao family. There were fewer girls chasing after him, and fewer people introducing him to potential partners.

He suddenly brought people to Gu Qingqing's store to buy clothes, which must mean good things are about to happen.

But who knew that Shen Shuyan took care of the Qiao family because he was actually afraid that Qiao Lei would come back and kill him one day.

Qiao Lei disappeared not long after she broke up with him. He felt that it was his breaking up decision that hurt Qiao Lei, which was why she left. He was somewhat responsible.

Now that he has helped the Qiao family so much, it’s quite considerate. It’s time for him to start his new life.

A few people discussed Shen Shuyan's personal situation for a while and then changed the subject. There was nothing much to say.

As they were chatting, Gu Qingqing suddenly said to Jiang Yanqiu: "Your Jin Beibei has been cheated. I think your family is going to be in trouble again."

Gu Qingqing knew Jin Yi and Jin Beibei mainly because Jin Beibei opened her own clothing store.

But they looked down on the clothes in their own store, and most of their clothes were bought from Gu Qingqing's store.

Once, the mother and daughter came to Gu Qingqing's store to buy clothes and happened to meet Jiang Yanqiu and others.

The other party was a big customer and a relative of Jiang Yanqiu, so Gu Qingqing paid more attention to him, but ended up getting more than she could chew.

Jiang Yanqiu asked curiously, "What's going on?"

Gu Qingqing answered readily, "She had a boyfriend, but he turned out to be a big liar. He tricked her into picking up the goods, ran away with the money, and also took away a lot of goods sent by the manufacturer."

Jiang Yanqiu asked in surprise: "How much did you cheat?"

Gu Qingqing waved her hand: "I don't know, but I heard that the money was 8,000 yuan. The other party took 20,000 yuan worth of goods from the factory she bought them from in her name, and paid a 20% deposit, 70% to be paid when the goods arrived, and the rest to be paid after they were sold out.

The clothes were shipped directly to the capital before they were taken away. Furthermore, the remaining goods in Jin Beibei's store were packed up and taken away. She also borrowed a lot of money from people she knew. Now, Jin Beibei owes the manufacturer nearly 20,000 yuan, and her acquaintances don't even know about it."

Tian Mi sighed, "That's why you have to find a partner who knows you well. This is too scary. I wonder if the money she made from her shop this year is enough for them to use, and now she still owes so much. It must be very difficult."

Jin Beibei and her daughter are not only Gu Qingqing's big customers, but also big customers of Tian Mi's store. Tian Mi is very envious of them.

They would buy new styles as soon as they came out, and they would often go to Lao Qingxiang to have clothes custom-made. Tian Mi didn't dare to buy clothes as arrogantly as them.

After Jin Beibei opened a clothing store, Jin Yi took a long vacation to run the store with Jin Beibei.

Both mother and daughter are good at matching clothes, and the clothes they buy are very popular among women. Their business is pretty good in their area.

It’s just that both mother and daughter love dressing up too much and buy several sets of high-end clothes every month.

Jin Yi is over fifty years old, but she still dresses up beautifully all day long, like a little girl.

I had more than a dozen cheongsams custom-made this summer, and it was hard not to attract attention.

Only they themselves know whether their store made any money. Now that they have been cheated, they don’t know whether they can pay the money back.

Gu Qingqing nodded and said, "That's right. That man brought her to our store to buy clothes before. He packed up everything she liked. He looked like a big boss. Who would have thought he was actually a liar?"

Tian Mi blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Jiang Yanqiu, do you think she will ask your father to borrow money to pay off her debts?"

Jiang Yanqiu shook her head and said, "Maybe not."

After Jin Beibei opened this clothing store, the mother and daughter had little contact with Jin Yuhuan, and it was impossible for Jiang Yanqiu and the others to keep an eye on them all day long.

But I did hear some things about the Jin family.

Once, Boss Jin was on a long-distance trip and actually encountered robbers halfway through the journey.

Boss Jin regards his job as more important than anything else. He doesn't want to sweep the streets or clean toilets anymore.

So he tried his best to stop the robbers and refused to let them take his goods away no matter what.

Fortunately, Boss Jin's desperate attitude scared the bandits away, and the goods were saved, but he himself was stabbed several times and almost lost half his life, so he retired gloriously early.

However, his unit was quite generous. Seeing that he had made great contributions to protecting state property, they directly allocated him a two-bedroom house.

He has worked in the unit for more than 20 years. If he hadn't been implicated in Jin Yi's incident, he would have been eligible for a separate house long ago.

Now the company directly awarded him the house without him having to pay a penny, and it was directly transferred to Boss Jin's name.

No matter how reluctant Jin Yuhuan was to leave the courtyard house, she had no choice but to move with Boss Jin to the house allocated by the unit, where they didn't have to pay rent.

The mother and son have Boss Jin’s pension and don’t have to pay rent.

After Boss Jin recovers, he can go collect scrap and sell it, hoping to get antiques.

Even if they don't get any antiques, they can still get an extra subsidy, and the mother and son can live a pretty good life and even have some savings.

Now that Jin Beibei owes so much money, she will definitely have to ask Jin Yuhuan for help to deal with it. It is hard to say whether Jin Yuhuan will take care of it.

Facts have proved that Jin Yuhuan still can't let go of Jin Yi. The mother and daughter of the Jin family haven't visited Jin Yuhuan for more than a year, and they always look for Jin Yuhuan to solve problems whenever something happens.

Before Jiang Yanqiu and the others went to Nandu, they went to the Jiang family in advance to deliver New Year's goods. Unexpectedly, they ran into Jin Yuhuan who went to the Jiang family to ask for money.

Jin Yuhuan knelt down in front of Jiang Anhua at the gate and begged him to save Jin Beibei, but Jin Yi and her daughter were nowhere to be seen.

It will be at the main gate, not the gate of the second courtyard, attracting a lot of onlookers.

This is an attempt to morally blackmail Jiang Anhua.

Jiang Anhua's face was as black as Bao Gong's, but he refused to help the man up and let the onlookers accuse him of being unfilial.

Jiang Anhua was silent for a long time, then suddenly asked, "How did my grandmother die?"

Jin Yuhuan, who was originally kowtowing to Jiang Anhua, suddenly stopped, looked at Jiang Anhua with horror on her face, and then collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Anhua immediately understood when he saw her expression that the deaths of those old people were probably related to Jin Yuhuan.

Otherwise, why would the old man have hidden so many things without telling his only daughter Jin Yuhuan at all?

Jiang Anhua had had this idea before, but Jin Yuhuan was only fourteen or fifteen years old at that time. How could she kill her own biological parents? So he rejected it.

Now that he saw that Jin Yuhuan couldn't tell right from wrong, he tried to test her, but he didn't expect that he still didn't understand her.

Jiang Anhua didn't know what to say to Jin Yuhuan for a moment. He sighed and said, "You've been smart all your life, but apart from scheming against your own family, you've never done a smart thing. You didn't let any of your parents or your son go. What on earth are you trying to achieve?"

You're already in your seventies, and you're still kneeling here plotting against a son you've killed countless times. What exactly do you want to do? Is it just for Jin Yi and Jin Beibei, the ones who have embarrassed you for most of your life? Or would you only be happy if we were all dead?"

Jin Yuhuan said nothing. Finally, she stood up and left as if she had lost her soul.

What is she trying to achieve? Yes, what is she trying to achieve in this life?
