Cheng Xiuyun and Shi Xiuneng brought back a large number of clothes from the Shenzhen market. They spent a lot of money on them, and they were exhausted.
As soon as he got home, Shi Xiuneng was paralyzed and couldn't get up from the bed.
Cheng Xiuyun watched him throw his clothes on the ground, and the blue veins on his forehead were exposed with anger, but he finally endured and picked up the clothes one by one and put them away.
Before he could pack up, Shi Xingrui rushed in like firecrackers from the outside: "Mom, you and Dad are finally back, if you don't come back, I will be bullied badly by others woo woo..."
Cheng Xiuyun was so tired that her whole body was falling apart, especially her back was so sore that she could barely stand up. Shi Xingrui slammed into her, she took two steps back, and her back hit the table behind her, her face twisted in pain. .
"What are you doing, kid? Reckless, how did I teach you before that you should be gentle and graceful as a girl, look what you look like now!"
Shi Xingrui was fake crying before, but she didn't expect her mother to hug her to coax her, but instead scolded her as soon as she came back, she sat on the ground and burst into tears: "Dad, your daughter is going to be beaten to death, Daddy woohoo …”
Shi Xingrui's voice was loud, and when she cried, it was like mourning.
Shi Xiuneng was woken up, and he scolded impatiently, "As soon as I come back, I will scold the child, and I will get out of the way if I quarrel again!"
Cheng Xiuyun was so angry that she almost vomited blood and died.
Seeing her mother being scolded, Shi Xingrui was overjoyed. She got up and ran to the bed to hold her father's hand: "Dad, you said, bring me a beautiful skirt. Where is the skirt?"
Shi Xiuneng was so sleepy he couldn't keep his eyes open, he said perfunctorily, "I want it from your mother."
After turning over, he fell asleep again.
Shi Xingrui was scolded by her mother and didn't want to pay attention to her mother for the time being, so she ran over to pick up her clothes and messed up Cheng Xiuyun's just-arranged clothes all at once.
Cheng Xiuyun's chest heaved violently with anger: "I just finished the clothes, stop me!"
Shi Xingrui made a face at her: "I want new clothes, if you don't give them to me, I'll call my dad up and say you hit me!"
Shi Xiuneng was very angry when he got up. If he was woken up without a full sleep, he would definitely scold people. Cheng Xiuyun really didn't want to confront him.
Just hearing her daughter use such words to threaten her, she was so angry that she almost didn't catch her breath. How could she be such a nuisance
Compared with Wen Rugui when she was a child, Shi Xingrui was simply reincarnated as a demon king, especially if Shi Xiu was able to support her, she didn't listen to her mother's words at all.
Cheng Xiuyun had no choice but to find two skirts and give them to her.
Shi Xingrui's eyes brightened, she took the skirt and smiled, "Give me pocket money, I'm running out of money."
Cheng Xiuyun frowned: "Didn't I only give you five yuan when I left? How many days did it take?"
Shi Xingrui rolled her eyes: "I bought stationery, hurry up and give it to me!"
Shi Xiuneng scolded something from the other side, so Cheng Xiuyun had to take out one yuan and hand it over: "Don't spend money, don't buy candy, your teeth..."
But before the words were finished, Shi Xingrui ran away with the money and skirt to show off to his peers in the yard.
With pocket money and a new dress, Shi Xingrui suddenly forgot about the itchy scalp. Cheng Xiuyun was tired and angry, and there were still many things to do, so she didn't notice that she was always scratching her scalp when she spoke.
Therefore, the occurrence of lice in Shi Xingrui's head was ignored.
After that, the two of them only took a day off before they devoted themselves to the great business of selling clothes. They took a large oilcloth and spread it out on the street next to the market, and then placed the clothes on it.
As the country's first special economic zone, Shenzhen City, coupled with the advantage of its geographical location, has developed very rapidly. The clothes brought back by the couple from Shenzhen City are fashionable and fashionable, and no one in Beijing has seen them.
Therefore, as soon as the clothes were put out, people quickly gathered around to ask the price.
"The top is eight yuan, and the skirt is fifteen yuan."
"Why is it so expensive?"
"Big sister, look at my clothes. The colors are so bright and the style is unique. There is no second place to sell them in the whole Beijing, and I don't even want cloth tickets."
The woman who asked the price immediately became more excited when she heard that she didn't want cloth tickets. More importantly, the clothes were really beautiful, unlike the clothes in department stores that were either black or gray. People are booked out.
Just when she hesitated, a modern-looking woman came over and picked up two skirts: "How do you sell these two?"
Cheng Xiuyun immediately smiled and said, "Fifteen yuan for red, eighteen yuan for blue."
The woman gestured twice with two skirts on her body, looking very satisfied.
Cheng Xiuyun boasted: "This lesbian has such a good figure, wearing these two skirts is like a fairy coming down to earth, and people can't move their eyes when they look at them."
Everyone likes to hear nice words.
The woman was so overjoyed that she handed over two skirts and said, "I want these two. When will you put them on, I will introduce my sisters and colleagues to buy them later."
Cheng Xiuyun's smile deepened: "It will be there before it gets dark, but this time we don't have much stock. If you want it, you have to hurry up. It will be sold out in two days."
The first woman no longer hesitated after hearing this, and hurriedly paid for two clothes.
Four pieces of clothes were sold at once, and when the two women left, the happy couple couldn't close their mouths.
Shi Xiuneng counted the money and glanced at her: "Okay, you, I didn't expect you to be a business person."
Cheng Xiuyun took a sip of water: "It's not all forced by life."
In the past, she would definitely not be able to show her face to sell clothes on the street, let alone praise others with a smile on her face, but this time she went to the Shenzhen market, which gave her a great impact.
She saw that her best friend was making money in the business day, and the whole Shenzhen market was full of vitality. Both men and women were working hard. She had carefully observed other people doing business, and she had imitated them in her heart.
If others can do it, she, Cheng Xiuyun, can definitely do it too.
Shi Xiuneng still wanted to praise her, but soon another person came to buy clothes.
As Cheng Xiuyun said, the clothes were sold out within two or three days. Because they were selling clothes for the first time, they did not dare to wholesale too much.
They plan to wholesale more clothes this time, so Shi Xingrui can only ask Aunt Lin again.
Aunt Lin originally wanted to refuse, but Cheng Xiuyun gave her ten yuan more than last time to take care of Shi Xingrui. She looked at the ten yuan and couldn't say what she refused.
**
Cheng Xiuyun's business is booming, and Tong Xuelu's business is also booming.
When an auspicious day was chosen, her "Lu Wei Zhai" opened.
Before the opening, she went back to school and mentioned it to her former classmates, because she was popular, and everyone had heard about her being a restaurant manager before, and people who had never eaten wanted to try it.
So on the opening day, many people came to cheer.
In order to make an instant hit, Tong Xuelv also made a three-day opening discount, as long as the consumption is over 5 yuan, there will be a 10% discount.
These days, whether I go to a department store to buy things or go to a state-run restaurant to eat, there are only cases where I can't buy it, and I have never heard of such a thing as a discount.
Everyone thought it was very novel, and when they heard that there was a discount, it seemed that they would be at a disadvantage if they didn’t buy it, so everyone came over to buy a few.
In addition to selling Mala Tang, "Lu Wei Zhai" also sells various kinds of braised food, such as braised chicken feet, braised chicken wings, braised duck neck, and many snacks that no one has ever eaten.
It's delicious, spicy, delicious and chewy, and it's allowed to buy only a little of each, so that everyone can try everything as much as possible.
Tong Xuelu's cooking skills are needless to say. She brought Dongfeng Hotel back to life in less than half a month, and her cooking skills have long been recognized by everyone.
After the classmates came to try it, they were full of praise, so it was passed on from ten to ten, and the word of mouth spread quickly.
People nearby know that this place is open, and they will come to buy some and go back to cook.
All in all, business is booming.
The restaurant hasn't opened yet. Three days ago, Tong Xuelv personally came to help, and by the way, he brought two brothers and sisters, Guo Chunyu and Guo Weiping.
Guo Chunyu's mind is fast, she can learn many things as soon as she learns it, and her personality is enthusiastic and cheerful, so she is very suitable for being a salesperson.
Guo Weiping has a more restrained personality and is not a smart person, but he has a good temper, can bear hardships and stand hard work, and is willing to obey arrangements. Tong Xuelv is also very satisfied with him.
After closing the door on the first day, once the door of the store was closed, and the turnover was liquidated, there were actually more than 400.
Guo Chunyu was so shocked that his mouth opened wide: "Oh my God, seeing how much everyone buys, I didn't expect that the turnover would be so much."
You must know that the daily turnover of Dongfeng Hotel is not that much.
Tong Xuelu smiled and said, "You have to be mentally prepared. After the first three days, there won't be so much later."
Guo Chunyu thought for a while and expressed her understanding.
In the first three days, many people were curious, and many people came to visit because of Tong Xuelu's face. In addition, there were discounts, so there were many talents who bought it.
If there are no discounts in the future, there will be fewer people buying them. In addition, everyone is not very wealthy these days, so they definitely cannot go out to eat and drink every day.
Tong Xuelu smiled and said, "But this is only temporary. Now that the country is focused on developing the economy, people's living standards will get better and better, and more and more people will be able to afford things."
Guo Chunyu nodded: "Manager Tong said that in fact, everyone's life has been different in the past two years."
If it was before, who would dare to sell things so blatantly, but now you can see people selling things on the street from time to time.
Tong Xuelu encouraged them: "You guys do it well, and when the store is up and running, I will open a second and third store, and then you can be promoted as managers to help people lead people."
Guo Chunyu and Guo Weiping were stunned.
Guo Chunyu's face immediately burst into brilliance: "Thank you Manager Tong, we will definitely do a good job!"
Guo Weiping showed an unconfident expression: "Being a manager? I'm afraid I can't do it..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was beaten hard by his sister, and her eyes signaled him to shut up.
Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that no one else could look forward to, yet he actually pushed it out on his own initiative, he had never seen such a fool.
If Tong Xuelu said this before the opening, she would definitely not believe it, but looking at the turnover in the past few days, she couldn't help but believe it.
The decoration of the restaurant has not been fully completed, and the "Business License for Individual Industrial and Commercial Households" has not been issued. It will take a month for Deng Hong to resign as a handover, so the opening time can only be delayed.
The other five people recruited, because the restaurant could not open yet, Tong Xuelu asked them to take turns to come to the store to help and learn, and obey Guo Chunyu's management.
In addition, she also asked Deng Hong to help find one or two chefs. After all, after the restaurant opened, it was impossible for her to be the only chef.
The business of "Luweizhai" was as expected by Tong Xuelv. After the first three days, it was not so prosperous after that, but the business was not bad.
Although Qian Caixin never went to Luweizhai to buy anything, she always pays attention to Tong Xuelu's every move.
Seeing that Luweizhai actually let Tong Xuelu do it, she felt very uncomfortable: "Some people just can't support the wall with mud, and they don't go to a good unit, but they want to do business, and they will definitely regret it later!"
When the people in the dormitory heard her say that, they glanced at each other and didn't answer.
Since Qian Caixin's opportunity to intern at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was cancelled, she hated Tong Xuelv more and more in her heart, but because her family warned her, she did not dare to target Tong Xuelv again.
Before Luweizhai had not opened, she cursed Luweizhai's closure every day in her heart, and then let the whole school see Tong Xuelu's jokes, but she didn't expect Luweizhai's business to be so good, it seemed to slap her hard.
The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became.
Tong Xuelu didn't know Qian Caixin's sullen life alone. She wrote a letter to Xie Guangkun in the United States and asked him if he could buy an induction cooker for her.
The world's first induction cooker was manufactured in Germany in 1957. In 1972, the United States began to produce induction cookers. Now, in the early 1980s, induction cookers were very popular in Europe, America and Japan.
But Huaxia does not have an induction cooker yet.
Looking back, she wanted to make hot pot. It is the most convenient and safe to use an induction cooker for hot pot. Others are not safe to use coal or alcohol, especially coal is extremely easy to be poisoned.
After writing the letter, she handed the letter to the staff of the city's foreign affairs office.
Nowadays, communication has not been released at home and abroad, and letters to foreign countries need to go through layers of checkpoints before they can be sent.
It's not easy to send an induction cooker back. Tong Xuelu wrote it in the letter. If there is no way, let him try to get a manual for himself.
She wanted Wen Rugui to see if he had any friends who could make it, and then became the first domestic manufacturer of induction cookers, which would be another way to make money.
Without waiting for Xie Guangkun's reply, it was Jiang Baihui's wedding day.
Tong Xuelu went to give her makeup according to the agreement, because Jiang Baihui had no makeup, so she gave her a set at her own expense.
Jiang Baihui received the cosmetics and was so happy that she hugged her: "Xuelu, I'm so happy, thank you, I like this gift very much!"
Tong Xuelv said with a smile: "If you like it, just sit down. When the groom is going to pick him up, I have to make up for you quickly."
Jiang Baihui hurriedly sat down when she heard the words: "By the way, you can teach me how to put on makeup later. I heard that foreign women have to wear makeup when they go to work."
Tong Xuelu nodded: "Yes, makeup is not difficult, just practice a few times."
Jiang Baihui's foundation is good, her facial features are elegant, and Tong Xuelu matched her face shape to give her a dignified atmosphere and a little charming makeup.
After the transformation, Jiang Baihui looked at herself in the mirror and almost couldn't recognize herself: "My God, did I look so beautiful?!"
Jiang Baihui's cousins and cousins saw with their own eyes Tong Xue's magical makeup technique, and couldn't help but praise her.
"Comrade Tong's makeup is so amazing, I can't even read it."
"Me too, but Bai Hui's makeup looks really good. When her brother-in-law comes over, she will definitely be so fascinated that she can't turn her eyes away."
The whole room laughed, Jiang Baihui blushed and glared at her cousin.
Soon Jiang Baihui's mother came over and praised Jiang Baihui when she saw how beautiful she had become.
Because Jiang Baihui wanted to help outside, Jiang Baihui's mother called a group of girls out to help, leaving only Jiang Baihui and Tong Xuelu in the room.
Jiang Baihui took Tong Xuelv's hand and said, "It would be great if we could go abroad together, but you are going to do business."
Tong Xuelu smiled and said, "Everyone has their own aspirations, and my situation is not suitable for going abroad."
Jiang Baihui knew about her situation, so she didn't continue talking, and the topic changed: "My cousin, who was standing next to you just now, what do you think of her?"
Tong Xuelu thought for a moment: "Is it the one with the round face?"
Jiang Baihui nodded: "That's right, it's her. My cousin is nineteen years old this year. She graduated from high school. She also took the college entrance examination before, but unfortunately she didn't pass it."
Tong Xuelu: "Then you can continue the test."
Jiang Baihui shook her head: "She doesn't focus on studying. Her goal is to marry a good family, to be a husband and to teach children."
Tong Xuelu: "..."
Jiang Baihui suddenly lowered her voice and said, "My cousin has a very gentle personality. There are three brothers in the family. She is the youngest and is very favored at home. My uncle and aunt have already spoken, saying that when she gets married, a generous dowry will be prepared for her. ."
Tong Xuelu thought she was just chatting, and said, "It's the same sentence, everyone has their own aspirations, as long as she doesn't break the law, she can choose the way she wants to live."
Jiang Baihui nodded again: "I know, but when I mentioned her to you, I wanted to ask you, do you think my cousin and her brother Zhuzhu are suitable?"
Tong Xuelu was a little speechless. It turned out that she said so much because she wanted her to be a matchmaker.
She refused without thinking: "You should know my character, I don't like to mix it up."
Jiang Baihui paused for a moment, then shook her hand and swayed: "But I'm not someone else, what kind of friendship do we have? I think my cousin and Wei Ran are quite compatible, so you can help me as a middleman."
"What's more, didn't you help the base and the school's female college students make friendships before?"
Tong Xuelu: "The association between the base and the school, I'm just helping to spread the word. The school is responsible for the gatekeeping and organization, and I didn't participate."
"Yes, this time I just want you to help spread a word. You can mention my cousin to Grandma Shen, and arrange for the two of them to meet and have a blind date. You don't have to trouble you with other things."
"Please, Xuelu, you can help me." Jiang Baihui looked at her expectantly, "Today is my wedding day, you can't refuse me!"
Tong Xuelu felt a little bit of discomfort in her heart, but she didn't show it: "I'll ask Grandma Shen when I look back."
In fact, there is no need to ask, the family background of the Wei family is more than one level higher than that of the Jiang family, and the family is not right.
In addition, Wei Ran and Wei Zhuzhu, two siblings, lost their parents, and Shen Wanrong wanted to find a capable daughter-in-law for Wei Ran.
Jiang Baihui's cousin is very childish, and she looks timid in doing things, which does not meet Shen Wanrong's criteria for choosing a daughter-in-law.
But at this moment Jiang Baihui held her up and forced her to agree, which made her a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Baihui laughed: "That's great, Grandma Shen likes you so much, as long as you are the introducer, she will definitely fall in love with my cousin."
Tong Xuelu glanced at her, noncommittal.
Soon the groom came to pick him up, and the inside and outside of the house became lively again.
As expected, Liang Tianyi was stunned when he saw Jiang Baihui wearing makeup.
Everyone looked at him dumbfounded and laughed happily.
Jiang Baihui raised her head and said to him, "Hold me."
She couldn't say that her look and expression when she said this were very similar to Tong Xuelu's wedding day, they could only say that they were exactly the same.
Xie Xiaoyan, Tian Fengzhi and the others were stunned when they saw this, but because everyone was coaxing Liang Tianyi to hug them, they quickly put this strange feeling behind them.
Liang Tianyi blushed with nervousness, and walked over to bend over to hug Jiang Baihui. Who knows if he was too excited, or because Jiang Baihui's height and weight exceeded his load.
He hugged Jiang Baihui twice but was unable to pick up Jiang Baihui.
Seeing this, everyone laughed more and more.
"Groom officer, are you okay?"
"I only did ten push-ups just now, and now I can't even hold the bride. I don't think it's good enough."
Liang Tianyi's face was as red as Guan Gong's, and the shyness on Jiang Baihui's face disappeared without a trace.
In the end, the two walked out holding hands.
A week after the two got married, Liang Tianyi went abroad to study.
Tong Xuelu turned around and told Shen Wanrong about Jiang Baihui's cousin, but was unexpectedly rejected.
After Jiang Baihui found out, she was very unhappy for a while.
On this day, Tong Xuelv went to the base to visit Wen Rugui, and met Wang Xiaoyun who also went to the base on the way.
The two chatted after knowing each other's identities.
When they came to the gate of the base, Wen Rugui and Zhou Yan ran out of it, holding a bunch of flowers in their hands.
Seeing their respective daughters-in-law, the two sent flowers together.
Wen Rugui's eyes were tender: "I planted this flower myself."
Tong Xuelu hugged the flower and smiled like a flower: "It's a very fragrant flower, I like it very much."
Seeing this, Zhou Yan scratched his head and said quickly, "Xiaoyun, I also planted this flower myself."
Wang Xiaoyun didn't suspect him, so she leaned up to smell it, and her face turned green the next moment: "Why is there a smell of urine?"
Tong Xuelu: "...?"
Wen Rugui: "… "
Zhou Yan: "!!!"
Seeing Tong Xuelu's confused face, Wen Rugui leaned over and whispered in her ear, "His flowers were picked by the dean secretly. It should be the dean's little grandson who secretly urinated in the flowers again."
Tong Xuelu: "..."
Wang Xiaoyun immediately realized that she had been fooled, it was impossible for him to plant this flower himself!
She was so angry that she smashed the flower on Zhou Yan, but before she could scolded her, she retched and vomited.
Zhou Yan was in a hurry, holding her arm and asking repeatedly, "How are you, Xiaoyun?"
Wang Xiaoyun retched so much that she couldn't speak.
Zhou Yan's face turned pale with fright.
Tong Xuelu was about to say that they were going to help and call the doctor, but before he could speak, a sense of nausea rushed into his chest.
She also retched with a "vomit" sound.
