Chapter 274 - The Child Understands (2)
Qiu Jinzhi, "... I don't have a Younger brother like you. "
"Brother!" Qiu Yi felt wronged.
Qiu Jinzhi asked: "Then have you ever asked why Eldest Brother didn't bring you out to play? Have you caused any trouble? " Qiu Jinzhi thought back to when Autumn Jade had taken him out to play, and what kind of tricks he had up his sleeve, but Qiu Tai would still bring him out to play.
Now that she thought about it, she had to thank him, the Eldest Brother, for showing her kindness.
"How could I possibly cause trouble? I just want to follow Eldest Brother outside to take a look, and every time I have to bring him along, I can only stay in that carriage behind. But even so, Eldest Brother would sometimes ask me to go to other rooms to wait for him, and Father said that he wanted me to recognize the owner of the entire trading company, so I could only watch from afar every time. Every single time, I would be scolded by my father. " At this point, Qiu Yi felt so wronged that he was pitiful.
This made Qiu Jinzhi feel how serious the situation was. When he was ten years old, not only was he able to manage those businesses, he also found the advantages and disadvantages of each boss to be even more important.
Only after understanding and analyzing would they have a better grasp of the situation. Every time, the Old Master Qiu would conduct an assessment on their sons from time to time. Of course, even if they couldn't inherit the family business, they could still eat in small places, just based on their keen sense of smell for commercialization.
Qiu Jinzhi tilted his head: "Bring along Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law will also go? " Qiu Jinzhi did not have much of an opinion on this, as the Old Master Qiu had once said: "Since we have entered this door, we are family. "Everyone wants to be on good terms with each other. The wives who are married in from the outside are also our own family."
These words were always on Qiu Jinzhi's mind.
Currently, his own Eldest Brother was too busy with his wife's business and had squeezed his own pro-Younger brother out of the door. This was akin to buying a clam for a pearl, what was going on, was Eldest Brother going to help that woman train his little brother?
Qiu Jinzhi smiled and asked gently: It's Eldest Brother that doesn't allow Third Brother to go?
Qiu Jinzhi shook his head: "Every time it was always servant who would ask me to wait in the room next door. By the time they call me, they would already have already finished talking. I once sneaked out to see them being discovered by the Sister-in-law and got scolded by the Sister-in-law. " As he spoke up to this point, Qiu Yizhi's mood was even more dejected.
"Does that mean that Eldest Brother has never said those words in front of Third Brother?" Qiu Jinzhi asked the Younger brother.
"Yes." Qiu Yi nodded. "Right."
Qiu Jinzhi touched the folding fan in his hand. "As they played back and forth, they seemed to be thinking about something." Our house is not too clean. If we have time, we can clean it up. "
Qiu Yizhi looked at the folding fan in second brother's hands. The fan in his hand flipped back and forth as if it was enchanted by some magic, as if it was wrapped by an invisible rope.
Qiu Jinzhi passed the folding fan in his hand to Qiu Yizhi. "This folding fan is for you, for self-defense."
Qiu Yizhi looked at his second brother in confusion.
Qiu Jinzhi pulled hard on the tassel of the folding fan, causing a thin dagger to hide inside the bone fan. After merging the secret spaces, this fan was still an ordinary folding fan.
Qiu Yizhi thought that the fan was heavy when he received the folding fan, but he did not expect it to be light. It was no different from a normal folding fan.
"This is made of light metal. If a normal weapon hits you, you'll always be able to defend against it. " Qiu Jinzhi explained.
Qiu Yizhi was moved to ask, "second brother, if you give it to me, what will you do?"
Qiu Jinzhi took out a folding fan from his waist and showed it to his third brother. The color of the folding fan was different, and the style was even more exquisite. I have one more. " It's been a long time since I found an excuse to change a new one.
Qiu Yizhi, "..." He had been deeply moved a moment ago, but now there was only a little bit of residue left.
"Brother."
"Do you still have this fan?"
Qiu Jinzhi asked in alert: "What?"
"Give me one more so I can keep it."
Qiu Jinzhi decisively replied: "No more."
"Oh."
"Why don't you go back to sleep? Tomorrow, your Confucius will say that you are lazy and disobedient again. "
Qiu Yizhi stuck out his tongue. "I'm leaving."
"Scram, scram."
Qiu Yizhi waved the fan back and forth in his hand just like Qiu Jinzhi.
Qiu Jinzhi looked at his swollen face and reminded him: "I didn't give you a second time even if it was broken."
Qiu Yi's small hand was startled. "Immediately hug your fan." second brother, I remember that you were not like that before! "
Qiu Jinzhi held a grudge: "You didn't hate me too much when you were young. At that time, when I, your second brother, was in dire straits, you were still ridiculing me. "
Qiu Yi innocently recalled the words "I didn't. I worshiped the second brother when I was young."
Qiu Jinzhi waved his hand towards his third brother, indicating that he had to quickly scram.
Closing the door, Qiu Jinzhi's gaze returned to his strange account book.
Madam Qiu and Old Master Qiu were not home all year round, and many things in the family were handed over to their eldest son to take care of. After another family member, the family secondary school would always be transferred. His gaze gradually fell on the Table's account book.
Madam Qiu said that should he come back to recuperate or should he come back to clean up?
It was not convenient for him to interfere in such a small matter.
Qiu Jinzhi closed the account book and picked up another one.
"I saw the latter half of the night." "Hrm?" Qiu Jinzhi tapped the book with his forefinger. "That's not right, that's not right." Then, he thought back to when the Old Master Qiu and the Madam Qiu had left in a hurry. It seems that Qiu Family is in trouble internally and externally.
"It's the State Jiang again, will we meet Zheng Li this time?" This was a transaction with State Jiang. Although the loophole in the amount was not very big, they still required Qiu Family to ensure that all the goods were delivered, otherwise the deposit would compensate for the losses at ten times the price. They were the only ones who could make such unreasonable demands.
