163 Chapter 162, Using Data To Speak
Meng Xiaoning lowered her head and said in a low voice, “It’s alright!”
Li Lei got on the bicycle with a red face, “Come on up, I’ll take you somewhere else to play.”
Meng Xiaoning grabbed the braid on her chest and got on Li Lei’s bicycle.
On Ji Yuanyuan’s side, when the three children went over, Qin Xiaomin was also there.
However, her expression today didn’t look too good.
Seeing that Ji Yuanyuan and the others had come, she stood up and said, “Then, Uncle, I’ll go back first.”
Ji Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and went forward to hold Qin Xiaomin’s hand, “Auntie Qin, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, don’t be in a hurry to leave first.”
Qin Xiaomin’s expression was a little awkward, “Auntie Qin still has some things to do today, so I won’t accompany you for now…”
“Auntie Qin, but I really want to talk to you.” Ji Yuanyuan sighed, “But if you’re busy, then forget it!”
Qin Junshan saw Ji Yuanyuan’s disappointed expression and said with some heartache, “It’s not too late, sit down and talk to Yuanyuan for a while. The child hasn’t seen you for a long time, so she misses you.”
Qin Xiaomin heard this and hesitated for a moment before sitting on the sofa again.
“Auntie Qin, are you in a bad mood? Are you unhappy at Work?” Ji Yuanyuan moved closer to Qin Xiaomin and asked in a low voice.
Qin Xiaomin forced a smile, “Nothing, Auntie Qin is not unhappy.”
Seeing this, Qin Junshan smiled helplessly, “Your Auntie Qin is unhappy because her parents are forcing her to go on a blind date.”
Ji Yuanyuan pretended to be confused and asked, “Why wouldn’t she be happy on a blind date? Shouldn’t she be thrilled on a blind date? My Uncle has recently been on a blind date with Aunt Xiaoning, and he’s very happy.”
Hearing Ji Yuanyuan’s words, Qin Junshan couldn’t help but laugh, “It depends on who you go on a blind date with. That Aunt Xiaoning you mentioned must be very good, right?”
“That’s right, and Aunt Xiaoning is very good. My Mommy and Grandparents are also pleased. They said they would let my Second Uncle go on a blind date too!” Ji Yuanyuan said, she took a piece of candy from the table, stuffed it into her mouth, and pretended to say this unintentionally.
Ji Zi’ang did not want to hear about the blind date, so he took the opportunity to ask, “Grandpa Qin, can I go and look for Uncle Gong?”
Children were obsessed with martial arts and kung fu. Xiao Gong was good at martial arts, and he was also patient with children.
Recently, Ji Zi’ang was very happy to play with Xiao Gong.
Qin Junshan waved his hand, “Go, go.”
Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang happily pulled Ji Zixuan to look for Uncle Xiao Gong.
The sound of Ji Zi’ang closing the door seemed to wake Qin Xiaomin up.
She suddenly came back to her senses and looked at Ji Yuanyuan. For a moment, she couldn’t say anything.
Ji Yuanyuan didn’t seem to see Qin Xiaomin’s gaze at all. She just looked at Qin Junshan, “But my Second Uncle isn’t happy either. He said he would rather go to the fields and pull up a few weeds than go on a blind date!”
Qin Xiaomin pursed her lips and her hands were intertwined together.
The corner of Qin Junshan’s eyes was naturally paying attention to Qin Xiaomin’s every move.
“Oh? Does your Second Uncle like to stay in the field?” Qin Junshan asked again, “Does he still want to find a job?”
“My Second Uncle doesn’t like to stay in the field, but only by working in the ground can vegetables grow well. Only when vegetables grow well can they be sold at a good price,” Ji Yuanyuan explained, “My Second Uncle went home to farm for the sake of making money.”
At this moment, Li Yong, who was holed up in the field mowing gra.s.s, suddenly sneezed.
Although Ji Yuanyuan made up these words when she said them, her face didn’t blush, and her heart didn’t skip a beat. In any case, it was the truth.
Qin Junshan sighed in his heart and reached out to touch Ji Yuanyuan’s head, but he didn’t say anything.
He knew that these two children were interested in each other. However, the difference between the two of them was too big. It was expected that Xiaomin’s parents would disagree.
They disagreed when Li Yong was in a restaurant and had a proper job. They were even more disapproving now that Li Yong had gone back home to the farm.
In their eyes, only a useless person who couldn’t find a job would return home to the farm!
“Grandpa Qin, it’s really profitable to grow vegetables.” Ji Yuanyuan pretended to know nothing and counted with his fingers for Qin Junshan, “The eggplant can mature in three months. An acre of eggplant can be sold for more than 2,000 Yuan! The cuc.u.mber can also be sold in three months, and an acre of land can be sold for more than 4,000 Yuan.”
Qin Xiaomin, who was originally in a daze, had a change of expression when she heard Ji Yuanyuan’s words.
She looked at Ji Yuanyuan in disbelief.
“My grandparents have a total of more than seven Mu of land. My Second Uncle said that when he earns money in the future, he wants to contract the neighbor’s land and hire people to farm it for him. Then, he won’t have to do anything but wait to count the money,” Ji Yuanyuan said, he smiled at Qin Junshan, “My Second Uncle’s dream is to earn a lot of money and to be a boss, not farming!”
Qin Junshan was also a little surprised, “Who counted the money for you?”
“My Mommy counted it for me,” Ji Yuanyuan said.
Qin Junshan raised his head and looked at Qin Xiaomin with a complicated expression.
If what Ji Yuanyuan said was true, then Li Yong’s decision to return home was considered correct.
It was not that he had no choice but to give up on himself, nor was it that he could not find a job.
On the contrary, he could lower his status and disregard the opinions of others. He was worthy of the respect of others for going home and working hard to earn money.
Farming was dirty and tiring, and not everyone could endure such hardship!
He had a unique vision and became the first person to eat the crab. It allowed him to earn money, and it was much more than his previous salary.
Qin Xiaomin’s gaze instantly changed and lit up.
A moment later, she stood up, “Uncle, I’m going home first. I still have something to do.”
Qin Junshan and Ji Yuanyuan did not stop her this time. Qin Xiaomin hurried home.
After she left, Qin Junshan asked Ji Yuanyuan, “Do you want to watch a cartoon?”
Ji Yuanyuan nodded calmly, “Okay!”
Qin Junshan took the remote control besides him and turned on the television. He quickly found the cartoon channel.
Ji Yuanyuan’s eyes immediately glued to the TV.
However, her mind was not on the cartoon.
She was still thinking about Qin Xiaomin and Li Yong.
Qin Xiaomin probably always felt that her Second Uncle was not ambitious. After he could not find a job in the city, he went back to his hometown to farm.
Once this kind of thinking entered her heart, no matter how others explained or tried to persuade her, it would be useless.
Moreover, her Second Uncle did not even think about explaining.
Only by putting the facts and data in front of her could she believe that her second Uncle was not a person who did not seek progress.
In the evening, Xiao Gong drove Ji Yuanyuan and her brothers to the shop.
Zhang Kun and Li Xu were having dinner. When they saw Ji Yuanyuan coming back, Zhang Kun politely thanked Xiao Gong.
Ji Yuanyuan looked around and did not see Li Lei in the shop. She asked curiously, “Is Eldest Uncle still not back yet?”
Speaking of this, Li Xu said with a smile, “No, it seems that he had a good chat with your Aunt Xiaoning.”
It was already seven o’clock, and he was still not back yet!
