Qin Peiyi held his daughter and looked at his eldest son: "Whereās your brother?"
Qin Xiaotian scratched his head: "They went to sell scrap materials."
Qin Peiyi was somewhat puzzled: "Where did they get scrap materials?"
Nuonuo hugged Qin Peiyiās neck at this time: "Dadās wine bottles."
Qin Peiyi thought of something, hurriedly left He Jinxuan and the others, and ran home with his young daughter.
He Jinxuan saw him like this and quickly chased after him, asking Qin Xiaotian: "Whatās up with your dad?"
At first, Qin Xiaotian didnāt understand, but when he remembered what his sister had just said, he thought of something too, and couldnāt help but pause.
Turning around, he ran in another direction.
He Jinxuan shouted at Qin Xiaotianās back: "Xiaotian, where are you going?"
That little guy ran fast and just replied: "Iām going to find my brother."
Then he ran off and disappeared.
He Jinxuan hadnāt entered the Qin Family yet, when he heard Qin Peiyiās loud voice: "Qin Xiaokong, you little brat, wait until I deal with you!"
Zhao Enrui walked out from the kitchen: "What did Xiaokong do to annoy you? You say youāll deal with him; is that how you act like a father, always threatening to deal with him?"
She had just finished speaking when she saw He Jinxuan walking in from outside the front door, giving an embarrassed, light smile: "Jinxuan is here, come in and sit."
He Jinxuan of course knew Qin Peiyi well, handed over the cooked food he brought: "Sister-in-law, take this to the kitchen and add it to the dishes later."
Zhao Enrui smiled as she accepted it: "You didnāt have to bring anything."
He Jinxuan placed the wine on the table set in the yard: "Just happened to find some for sale, bought a few, perfect to go with drinks later."
After their exchange, Qin Peiyi also calmed down a bit, but still said to his wife: "You only hear me scolding him, donāt you want to ask what he did?"
Zhao Enrui looked at her husband: "Then tell me, what did he do?"
Qin Peiyiās face turned dark: "The good wine I opened a few days ago, not even finished half, and that little brat Qin Xiaokong poured it all out and took the bottles to sell as scrap."
Zhao Enrui, some disbelief, hurried inside the house.
Soon she could be heard scolding: "This rascal, getting more and more unruly, dares to do anything. Fine, Iām not dealing with it; when he comes back you can handle him."
She then called out to He Jinxuan in the yard: "Jinxuan, have a seat. Thereās cool boiled water in the teapot on the table, pour yourself a drink. Iāll go stir-fry, itāll be ready soon."
He Jinxuan felt a bit embarrassed: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Zhao Enrui waved her hand with a smile: "No need for thanks, weāre family."
With He Jinxuan there, Qin Peiyi also tempered his anger, bringing his youngest daughter into the kitchen, then went indoors with He Jinxuan.
Once they sat down, Qin Peiyi spoke first: "I had someone investigate the people following your wife, theyāre connected to the Miao Family and Wei Family in East City."
He Jinxuan frowned: "Are you sure?"
Though He Jinxuan didnāt know who the Miao Family and Wei Family were, families living in East City couldnāt be simple: "Tell me about these two families."
Qin Peiyi then recounted what he had investigated and some things he knew about both families.
After listening, He Jinxuan frowned even tighter: "You mean they have motives?"
Qin Peiyi nodded: "I think those people are surveying and staking out. You should warn your wife."
