Surprise! The rough husband is the hidden boss of the period literature

Chapter 323 My daughter is still missing
Zheng Manhua was so angry she felt dizzy. She rubbed her head, leaned against the door frame, and really wanted to beat this brat to death.

Xu Qinghuan laughed and patted Qin Baifan's head. "Alright, stop talking nonsense. If you were really kidnapped, you'd be chained to the chicken coop right now. They wouldn't give you any food. If you were really starving, you'd be eating chicken droppings on the ground and getting beaten three times a day. Are you scared?"

Yue!

Qin Baifan stuck out his tongue and quickly hugged Qingxiao, "Waaah, Qingxiao, my good brother, you must protect me! If I get kidnapped, you must come and save me, just like you saved Erdan."

He tried to kiss Qingxiao's nose, but Qingxiao raised his front paw and pushed his head away, his anthropomorphic eyes filled with a look of disgust that said, "Don't touch me."

It was merely ordered to act as a foster father and had no intention of developing any kind of homoerotic relationship with the human cub that transcended species.

Zheng Manhua was shocked that the wolf was truly intelligent, but at the same time, she felt that her son deserved to be disliked.

“Huanhuan, thank you so much this time. You are a great benefactor to our family. Really, this is no exaggeration,” Zheng Manhua said. “Before I came, the old man said that if there is anything the Qin family can do to help you and Comrade Jiang, just ask.”

She handed over an envelope. "This is a two-courtyard house near Houhai. It was originally part of the old lady's dowry. The courtyard is very clean. We don't need it anyway. If you like it, you can keep it. If you don't like it, you can sell it."

Xu Qinghuan hurriedly refused, "No, no, no, I can't accept this, really, I can't accept it."

Zheng Manhua insisted on giving it to him, but Xu Qinghuan said, "Sister Man, to be honest, if you had given me this big gift after we saved Fanfan in the first place, I would have definitely accepted it. But now, I really can't accept it. If I accept it, I will be letting Fanfan down, and I will never be able to face him again."

Zheng Manhua was still hesitant. It wasn't that she wanted to settle the score with Xu Qinghuan or repay the favor as soon as possible, but rather that since Xu Qinghuan had helped her so much, would they still be human if they didn't show any appreciation?

Qin Baifan came over, snatched the envelope from her mother's hand, and stuffed it into Xu Qinghuan's hand. "Sister, take this. When you and Xingye have a younger sister in the future, I will use this as a betrothal gift."

Just then, Jiang Xingye walked in. He hadn't expected that someone would have designs on his daughter before he even had a chance to conceive.

She lightly flicked Qin Baifan on the forehead, "You little rascal, you're pretty quick!"

When Qin Baifan saw Jiang Xingye, he jumped up and clung to him, saying, "Brother, take me to the mountain to hunt rabbits. I want to eat braised rabbit."

"The bunny is so cute, how can you bear to eat it?" Jiang Xingye held his round bottom. After all, he was his future prospective son-in-law, so his attitude towards him was quite good.

"The bunny is so cute, but it's so delicious."

"To put it bluntly, you still want to eat rabbit, so what's the point of saying rabbits are cute?" Jiang Xingye lifted him up and gave him a look.

Zheng Manhua was speechless and shook her head, "This child... I wonder who he takes after?"

She was about to say, "How did this child become like this?" but she was afraid that Xu Qinghuan would misunderstand. She didn't dislike her son for being like this; this kind of personality was much better than being timid and silent.

She felt that the child had changed a lot.

"Huanhuan, thank you so much," Zheng Manhua said. "You should still accept it. It was Fanfan who gave it to you, not me."

Xu Qinghuan had no choice but to accept it. She could find a way to return it in the future. After all, it's all about reciprocity; only by giving and receiving can people become closer.

Zheng Manhua had another task this time, entrusted to her by Zheng Siqi. "Old Jiang, there's something I need to tell you!" Zheng Siqi said.

Jiang Xingye put Qin Baifan on the ground, patted the back of his head, and said, "Go play!"

Qin Baifan called out to Qingxiao and ran off. From beginning to end, he didn't let his mother hug him even once. Zheng Manhua gritted her teeth. He was her own son, so she could only swallow her anger.

She said, "Xiao Ye, Huan Huan, I haven't told you before, but I'm a reporter from the China Daily. I heard from Si Qi that your factory is doing very well, and I'd like to go and see for myself. What do you think?"

“Great, that’s wonderful!” Xu Qinghuan said. “Although I don’t know if it will be published in your newspaper, you can give us a shout-out if you have the chance.”

"By the way, Sister Man, when you get back, could you ask if you know anyone at your newspaper or TV station if it's possible for us to advertise in the newspaper or on TV to introduce our products to the whole country?"

She added, "We can pay whatever it costs for a single page."

"No problem. I brought my camera with me this time. I'll take lots of photos for you, and then I'll help you make the arrangements."

Zheng Manhua was happy to do this both publicly and privately. She could also see that her son really liked it here. In just a few days, he was having more fun than he did in the old compound.

The Shangjiang Brigade has handed over all its grain, leaving the warehouse empty. It has now been divided into two factory areas: one for making furniture and the other for a threshing machine production line. A partition in the middle serves as a maintenance room.

There were five people in the maintenance workshop: an electrician from the production team, Dong Liangcheng, and three educated youth: Song Anping, Luo Guihua, and Huang Dahai.

Many people objected to Dong Liangcheng's entry, but Jiang Xingye insisted on having him, believing that his skillful hands alone were enough to make him competent for the job.

Moreover, Dong Liangcheng has grown up very quickly, and he has a strong ability to understand things. He can get the job done immediately whatever Jiang Xingye says, which is much more efficient than those blockheads in the production team.

Liu Zhijian was the least outstanding person in the educated youth settlement. Jiang Xingye did not expect that this person was also a mathematical genius, so he made him the factory's accountant.

Luo Zaisheng is a skilled brick maker and is currently researching how to build a brick and tile factory in the production brigade. If they make money, they will definitely build a proper factory next year.

As Jiang Xingye explained the purpose of the personnel at the educated youth settlement, Zheng Manhua took quick notes, saying, "You've managed to make the best use of the educated youth's abilities; that's truly remarkable."

Upon entering the factory area, Zheng Manhua gasped. She had thought it was just a small workshop run by a local government, but she was surprised to find that its layout and overall condition were comparable to those of the large factories in Yan City.

The furniture factory occupies a larger area, and what's most shocking is that everything from planing and sawing to sanding is done by machines, and the level of automation is astounding.

Assembly line production is also very fast.

"Can I take pictures?" Zheng Manhua set up her camera, feeling like she couldn't take it all in. "Did you arrange all of this?"

When Jiang Baohua heard that a reporter from the Huaguo Daily had arrived, he rushed over without stopping. Jiang Xingye was modest, but Jiang Baohua didn't hold back his praise, saying, "It was all him, he handled everything single-handedly. Our brigade cadres just helped them with the paperwork and such."

Zheng Manhua was shocked. Jiang Xingye was truly a talent. No wonder someone like Xu Qinghuan could take a liking to him at first glance.
