“Alright, I’ll call them tomorrow morning.” Ji Yuanyuan agreed.
Pausing for a while, Ji Yuanyuan looked around, “Where’s Uncle? Why isn’t he back yet?”
It was almost ten o’clock, but Qin Haowen still hadn’t returned home.
“The company has been quite busy recently. Your uncle comes back around ten or eleven every night. It’s okay. You can go up and rest after drinking the bird’s nest. You don’t have to wait for him.”
“Did Uncle go out to socialize?” Ji Yuanyuan asked.
Cheng Shuqin sighed, “Yeah, he went to drink with people.”
No wonder Qin Haowen had a stroke at such a young age in his previous life.
He was so busy every day and drank every day. No matter how good his body was, he could not take it.
Ji Yuanyuan lowered her head and drank the bird’s nest while thinking about something.
After drinking the bird’s nest, Cheng Shuqin urged her and Qin Junshan to rest.
Ji Yuanyuan obediently went upstairs. After taking a shower, she lay on the bed for a while. She guessed that Cheng Shuqin was no longer downstairs, so she quietly went downstairs.
Aunt Wu was still in the kitchen.
Qin Haowen would be back soon. A person who had drunk would have an empty stomach, so he had to eat something.
Therefore, Aunt Wu had to wait in the kitchen until Qin Haowen returned.
Seeing Ji Yuanyuan enter, Aunt Wu quickly asked, “What’s wrong? Do you want some water or something to eat?”
“Do you have honey at home?” Ji Yuanyuan asked. “Uncle Qin’s stomach will definitely be uncomfortable when he comes back later. 1 want to personally make him a cup of honey water. He will feel better after drinking it.”
Aunt Wu quickly said, “Yes, this is the cup that Sir is used to. The honey is in the fridge. 1’11 get it for you.”
Ji Yuanyuan took Qin Haowen’s cup. While Aunt Wu went to the dining room to get some honey, she quietly poured the spring water into the cup.
She could only do this now. She secretly helped Uncle Qin strengthen his body and reduce the probability of a stroke.
Aunt Wu came back very quickly with a jar of honey.
“This is the wild honey that the Old Master brought back from the countryside.”
Ji Yuanyuan took a small spoon and scooped two spoonfuls of honey into the water.
As he was stirring, the outside suddenly lit up.
Aunt Wu quickly said, “Sir is back. I’ll go open the door.”
Ji Yuanyuan pulled her back, “Then I’ll go up first. Please remember to let Uncle drink the honey water.”
“Aren’t you going to say a few words to Sir?” Aunt Wu was a little puzzled.
“Uncle is drunk, so it’s probably not convenient for him to see me.” Ji Yuanyuan whispered.
Aunt Wu looked at Ji Yuanyuan with admiration.
She didn’t expect this girl to be so meticulous.
After all, men would always lose their composure after drinking.
In particular, Sir had been drinking especially hard recently.
Ji Yuan Yuan is a junior, if Sir is out of control in front of her, he would lose face.
“Alright, I’ll let Sir drink it.”
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and quickly went upstairs.
A moment later, Qin Haowen entered the house drunkenly.
Aunt Wu supported him and advised helplessly, “Sir, you have to take care of your health. How can you stand drinking like this every day?”
Just as she helped Qin Haowen sit down on the sofa, Cheng Shuqin came down.
She looked at Aunt Wu and said, “Make him a cup of honey water.”
Qin Haowen slumped onto the sofa and looked at Cheng Shuqin, “Honey, I feel uncomfortable…”
Cheng Shuqin stepped forward and said, “Are you crazy? Yuanyuan is here.
She’s upstairs!”
“My daughter-in-law is here?” Qin Haowen immediately sat up. “Why didn’t you tell me? President Lin, who was drinking with me today, even gave me a gold pen for my daughter-in-law.”
Aunt Wu immediately brought the honey water over and said jokingly, “This is the honey water that your Daughter-in-law personally made for you. Hurry up and drink it.”
“Yuan Yuan made it?” Cheng Shuqin asked, feeling a little strange. “When did she come down?”
“Just now, when she heard Sir was back, she rushed up. She said that she was afraid Sir would be drunk and embarrassed to see her.” Aunt Wu liked Ji Yuanyuan and was naturally willing to put in a good word for her.
Cheng Shuqin smiled, “This child is really sensible. Get up early tomorrow morning and go out to buy more food. She definitely won’t be able to eat anything good at school.”
Aunt Wu nodded, “Don’t worry. 1 know what she likes to eat.”
Qin Haowen hugged Cheng Shuqin’s waist and cried, “My daughter-in-law is so good to me. Take her to buy an expensive bag tomorrow.”
Cheng Shuqin poked his forehead helplessly and took the honey water from Aunt Wu’s hand, “Do you think Yuanyuan likes to buy bags just like me? Drink the honey water first. It’s getting late and it’s time to sleep.”
Qin Haowen took the water and gulped it down.
After drinking it, he smacked his lips, “It’s delicious, I want more.”
Cheng Shuqin handed the cup to Aunt Wu, “Give him another cup.”
Aunt Wu quickly made another cup and handed it to Qin Haowen.
Qin Haowen only took a sip and stopped drinking.
“What’s wrong? Didn’t you want to drink it? Why did you stop drinking after taking a sip?”
“It’s not as good as my daughter-in-law’s.” Qin Haowen shook his head.
Cheng Shuqin was a little helpless. She looked at Aunt Wu, “You go and rest. I’ll help him up to rest.”
Aunt Wu was a little worried, “Can you do it alone? Why don’t 1 go with you?”
Cheng Shuqin knew what was going on and shook her head, “No need. It’s getting late. You should go and rest.”
Aunt Wu was relieved. She took the cup and went to the kitchen to wash it before going back to rest.
Cheng Shuqin helped Qin Haowen up the stairs.
After helping Qin Haowen fall asleep, Cheng Shuqin heaved a sigh of relief.
Qin Haowen was over forty years old, but every time he got drunk, he would come home like a child.
If Yuanyuan saw this, the scene would definitely be a little awkward.
Fortunately, this child was considerate and sensible.
The more Cheng Shuqin thought about it, the more heartbroken she felt.
Before she went to bed, she even thought about getting someone to send some of the latest clothes over tomorrow and let Yuanyuan pick two pieces.
The next morning, Ji Yuanyuan woke up. She didn’t have the habit of sleeping in since her third year of high school.
No matter if it was a holiday or not, she woke up at this time every day.
Morning is the time when your mind is the clearest.
There were many things she could do in the morning.
Early in the morning, she had prepared a cup of honey water for Qin Haowen.
During breakfast, Ji Yuanyuan finally saw Qin Haowen.
Compared to two years ago, Qin Haowen looked much more haggard.
Even though it was the weekend, he couldn’t be idle. He went to the company after breakfast.
Under Qin Junshan’s urging, Ji Yuanyuan took turns calling Ji Zixuan and Ji Zi’ang at eight o’clock and asked them to come over for dinner.
As it was a last-minute appointment, Ji Zixuan happened to have something on and could not come.
Ji Zi’ang agreed immediately, “Alright, I’ll pack up and leave now. I’ll be there around io.”
Qin Junshan listened from the side and was a little surprised, “It will only take half an hour to get ready. It will only take 20 minutes to get from his school to our house by car..”
