Chapter 59 Control
Shi Yao's uncle Li Bai also echoed Shi Yanping, their faces glowing with excitement as they spoke.

Shi Yao and Shi Xin were also very excited after hearing this. If this project can really come true, the pension problem of Shi Yanping and his wife will be solved in the future, without bothering them, and they can also get dividends if they invest as shareholders.

Shi Xin questioned: "What you say is so good, is it reliable?"

"Reliable, why not reliable?"

"It was my third aunt's second son Luo Shuang who persuaded me to join him. I have watched him grow up since he was a child. That's why I dared to go and have a look."

"These are blood relatives. They are definitely more reliable than those whom we don't know."

"He has invested his own money in it. Now he can make a little money from the diesel plant and raising chickens, not to mention that the nursing home will be built and opened in the future."

While the four of them were chatting, He Qinqin came over with scallion omelette and pumpkin millet porridge: "Aunt and uncle are having dinner~"

Shi Xin looked at the dishes on the table expectantly, but found that there was only a bowl of fried eggs with chives and a large pot of pumpkin and millet porridge.

She was dumbfounded: "Just eat this?"

Shi Yanping and Li Bai were hungry after running around for so long.

Shi Yanping sat down without saying anything, and pulled Shi Xin to sit down as well: "These eggs look pretty good. Qinqin, please clean up the kitchen and come over to eat. Thank you for your hard work."

He Qinqin, who was originally worried, was praised by Shi Yanping, "Okay!"

She turned around and ran happily into the kitchen to collect the chopping boards and kitchen waste.

Shi Yanping then said to Shi Xin who looked confused: "You don't know what the art of controlling people is."

"Remember what mom said, short-term tactics are just a slap in the face and a sweet date, long-term tactics are long-term strategies to catch big fish."

Shi Yanping looked like a shrewd old strategist: "This is her first time cooking, and she was a wealthy lady before. Of course, she has to praise but not scold, so it will be easy for her the second time."

"When she gradually gets used to cooking for us, we can find faults little by little."

"Over time, a few compliments can get us a nanny who can cook and wash dishes for free."

"This way our family won't have to fight about who is cooking today or whether the food is not to our liking."

All conflicts are transferred to one person.

After hearing this, Shi Xin gave a thumbs up: "Tall! Mom, you are really tall!"

Shi Yanping snorted coldly: "You don't even know who I, Shi Yanping, am. Even if the King of Heaven comes, I still have to follow my rules."

"Of course I have different ways of dealing with different people."

She lowered her voice: "He Qinqin and Shi Yao don't have children yet, and they are not bound and locked. We can't go too far."

"You can't scare people away."

Shi Xin agreed: "That's right. Now He Qinqin is a public figure after all. Whatever we do must be hidden, and we can't let others make mistakes."

"But Mom." Shi Xin then thought about it, "He Qinqin is Si Jiuyin's adopted daughter. When she gets married, she won't have to wash dishes at our house. What should we do if we don't need to train her now."

"You stupid girl, you are stupid again. Do you think I asked her to cook and wash dishes just for cooking and washing dishes?"

"I'm taming her to be obedient. Now she can cook and wash dishes, and then she can pay and do errands."

"Let's put a good face on her and say a few nice words to her. Then she will be grateful. That's called making a lot of money."

When Shi Yanping and Shi Xin said these words, Shi Yao was packing his things, with an expression on his face as if he hadn't heard them.

Because it was his aunt's assessment, He Qinqin paid extra attention when learning to cook from the video, almost watching it step by step, frame by frame. Therefore, although the dishes he cooked this time were not delicious, they were not too bad. Salty or too bland.

After finishing dinner, Shi Xin complained: "There are too few dishes. There are no meat dishes such as fried pork with chili peppers. This egg can be counted as half at most."

He Qinqin's originally happy face dimmed when he heard Shi Xin's words.

She looked at the bowls on the table and felt that the dishes were indeed missing. In the past, when she ate at Si's house, no matter how few people there were, there would always be six dishes on the table.

I'm really not qualified.

When Shi Yao heard what Shi Xin said, his face turned serious: "Xinxin, can you be more sensible?"

"Your sister-in-law is already very tired from cooking for us after get off work. Don't say such disappointing things. I'm very satisfied with the meal."

Shi Yao patted He Qinqin on the back: "Our Qinqin is so capable. He is very good at cooking for the first time. If he becomes proficient after cooking for a long time, wouldn't he be able to become a chef?"

He Qinqin's eyes were filled with laughter when he was praised by Shi Yao: "Yes! Practice makes perfect. I will do better and better in the future."

"I also hope that my aunt, uncle, and cousins ​​will give me a chance so that I can have room for improvement."

"Okay Qinqin, you are tired, go and have a rest. I will collect these bowls and chopsticks."

Shi Yao stood up at this time and began to slowly clear away the dishes.

Seeing Shi Yaozhen's slowness, Shi Yanping looked disgusted: "Oh, Shi Yao, I'm really impressed by you."

"You are such a big person, but you are so slow to put away the dishes and chopsticks. I saw Qinqin wash the dishes very efficiently last time. She doesn't look like a spoiled young lady at all."

Hearing this, He Qinqin quickly took the dishes from Shi Yao's hand and said, "Shi Yao, let me wash it. I wash it quickly. If there's nothing wrong, I'll finish it in no time."

"How can this be so embarrassing? Qinqin is already tired enough."

"I don't feel tired, besides." He Qinqin leaned close to Shi Yao's ear and said, "I feel like this is a plus in front of my aunt."

When Shi Yao heard this, he pinched He Qinqin's ears: "You little clever guy."

At this time, Shi Yanping ordered again: "Qinqin, you see the kitchen floor and the living room floor are quite oily. Mop them after washing the dishes."

He Qinqin put away the dishes and chopsticks while replying: "Ah, okay."

Shi Yao took out the mop from the bathroom and started mopping the floor: "Qinqin, let me mop the floor for you."

He Qinqin quickly said: "Shi Yao, my aunt gave this to me——"

"Shh-" Shi Yao stretched out his index finger to cover He Qinqin's lips: "Auntie has entered the room, and I don't know who dragged her away."

He Qinqin was deeply moved by Shi Yao's words, and Shi Yao's action of covering his lips with his fingers was also very suspenseful.

"Thank you, Shi Yao, for letting me share this."

Shi Xin washed an apple in the kitchen and ate it. Hearing He Qinqin's words of gratitude made her want to laugh out loud.

In the past, she, Shi Yao, and Shi Hang took turns mopping the floor, but now it was Shi Yao's duty to mop the floor of his own home, and He Qinqin even wanted to say thank you, which was really magical.

If He Qinqin's card hadn't been stopped shortly after he came to their home, she would have suspected that this person was sent by the organization to provide targeted poverty alleviation.

*
After He Qinqin finished washing the dishes, the frostbite in the morning started to itch again, so she scratched her hands.

She has been afraid of the cold since she was a child, and she has suffered from chilblains since she was in the orphanage. However, after being taken to Si's house and being well cared for, she never had it again.

This year, it relapsed for the first time in 18 years. Her hands felt like ants biting her, which made her anxious and uncomfortable.

As soon as his mood became unstable, He Qinqin suffered from the sequelae of coughing and sore throat again: "Cough cough cough cough——"

He Qinqin curled up on the sofa uncomfortably. Shi Yao had already gone out to work the night shift. She tried her best to suppress her coughing.

He Qinqin stared at the ceiling blankly, with only one thought in his mind.

She must reconcile with the Si family.
