Chapter 305: Chapter 190 Problem Solved_1

Qian Yeejin finished outlining his decision, and Qian Dagui, Qian Ergui, Qian Manchuan, and others all vehemently disagreed, stating that they couldn’t let the third branch suffer a loss. Old man Qian also disagreed and kept explaining that he had no intention of scheming against the third branch’s assets.

The noisy quarreling gave Qian Sangui a headache, and cold sweat streamed down continuously. Qian Yeejin had to raise his voice and say, "My grandfather said, if you don’t agree with his proposal, then we’ll continue with the original arrangement. My family will still hold a twenty percent share, but another twenty percent must be given to my aunt as her marriage dowry."

As soon as he said this, the room fell silent immediately. Only Qian Manhe said, "I still support the idea of the fourth branch jointly opening the Dessert House..." Before he could finish, an anxious Lady Tang fiercely punched him, so he was forced to angrily shut his mouth.

Qian Yixiu observed everyone’s varied reactions and felt that Qian Manhe was the smartest of them all, knowing what was best for his family. It was just a pity he was held back by his clueless father and unscrupulous mother.

As for the others, some were blinded by greed, some didn’t want the family assets to leak outside, and there were those who wouldn’t miss the chance to take advantage of a good deal.

Old man Qian thought it over and made a firm decision, "Well, so be it. The third branch has so many assets, a little support for our brothers doesn’t hurt. In this way, we keep the Qian family’s assets from outsiders, and Auntie Xia gets her marriage dowry." He then said to the people from the first and second branches, "Remember Sangui’s kindness and know to help your brothers. Don’t just look out for your own patch of land; only then can the Qian family’s business continue to grow."

While they were willing, Old woman Qian was not and started wailing loudly. While crying, she still managed to blurt out, "I clearly wanted to help Jinwa keep her share of the assets, but I ended up hurting her instead. With such a division, aren’t we just squandering even what we have? Oh dear, Jinwa is at a huge loss..."

She was truly heartbroken, crying with tears and snot running freely, and saliva dripping down continuously.

Qian Yeejin hurriedly wiped her tears with a handkerchief and comforted her, "Great-grandma, as the saying goes, ’In books, there are houses of gold.’ Jinwa is striving hard and will surely earn an excellent future and great wealth for herself. Not only that, Jinwa will also secure imperial decrees for my mother, my grandmother, and Great-grandma. You must take good care of yourself and live well, waiting to enjoy Jinwa’s blessings."

Old woman Qian felt somewhat better after hearing this and murmured vaguely, "Good, good, Great-grandma will wait and enjoy the good fortune of her great-grandchildren."

As the eldest grandson of the main branch, Qian Yishan was also invited to the meeting and stated, "My thinking aligns with my younger brother Jin; I will earn our family’s wealth and future for myself."

Seeing such a scene made Qian Yixiu feel sad for her aunt, as it was her who made the clothes and shoes that Old man Qian and Old woman Qian were wearing, not to mention the frequent food deliveries. Her aunt’s filial piety toward the old couple surpassed that of any male in the third and fourth generation of the Qian family, yet simply because she was a girl, her contributions were overlooked.

Willingly or not, the Dessert House was thus divided.

Being busy, Qian Hua let Cai He handle the separation from "Old Brother Snack House," while also helping Xiaxia’s Fragrant Pie House find a shop, a manager, and a waiter. The baking team was already in place.

Qian Yixiu secretly chuckled to herself, grateful that she had held back some of her tricks and planned to write down some cake recipes for her aunt later on.

Upon hearing that Qian Sangui was nearly driven to death by frustration in trying to give Qian Manxia shares in the Dessert House, Wan Dazhong quickly came to show his filial respect to the Qian family. He insisted that the pastry house should remain with the Qian family, as he was capable of providing a good life for Auntie Xia. Furthermore, he claimed that Jinwa was clearly talented and destined for great success, that she would earn wealth for herself, and in the future, the entire Qian family would bask in her fortune. He urged Qian Sangui not to bequeath any assets to him and instead reserve everything for Qian Yixiu.

Qian Sangui replied, "Da Zhong, there’s no need to be formal. I have my own plans about how to properly divide things."

When Wan Dazhong encountered Qian Yixiu going to visit Master Sangui in the main courtyard, he asked her to act as a messenger, delivering a hand-carved comb to Qian Manxia. The exquisite comb was small and finely carved with a Paired Lotus design on the handle and coated with a glossy lacquer.

His dark face blushing, he said, "I carved this myself, I don’t know if she will scorn it."

Qian Yixiu replied with a smile, "Such a lovely comb, and personally carved by Uncle Wan, my aunt will surely treasure it."

Upon hearing this, Wan Dazhong’s dark face broke into a bright smile, revealing his white teeth.

When Qian Yixiu handed the small comb to Qian Manxia, mentioning that it was personally carved by Wan Dazhong, her aunt couldn’t contain her shyness, snatched it immediately, and joyfully ran back to Cuizhu Garden with her eyes smiling and brows raised. The gloom that had enveloped the young lady’s face for days was swept away by the spring breeze in an instant, and her steps became lighter. Watching that rose-colored silhouette vanish behind the Cuizhu Garden, Qian Yixiu’s supressed feelings brightened as well.
