Chapter 42: Jumping in anger

If it was the 18-year-old Meng Shulan, she would definitely not be able to feel Meng Danhong's twisted emotions.

But now she has lived for more than ten years, so she still has the ability to observe people's words and expressions.

Meng Danhong didn't expect her to ask so directly. Her face turned red. She quickly turned away and said, "Nothing. I just wanted to ask if your family's business plan is true."

This matter.

Meng Shulan nodded, "Yes."

In this day and age, getting a sewing machine as a betrothal gift in the countryside would cause everyone to sigh and look on. His family bought two machines at once, and came with so much cloth. It caused a sensation as soon as they entered the village. These things could not be concealed at all.

Meng Danhong pursed her lips and asked again: "Are you planning to affiliate with the supply and marketing cooperative?"

Word has spread in the village that the Meng family is going to open two tailoring stalls in the town.

Because He Jinqiu's sister He Saijun ran a tailor stall in the town, everyone naturally thought that the mother and daughter of the Meng family would do the same.

But it’s not good for family members to steal each other’s business!

Meng Shulan is not sure about answering this question.

After thinking for a while, he said, "It depends on the situation."

Although she has already thought about the problems that will be faced by the successors, she is not sure whether she can handle them well.

Yes, Meng Shulan already has a plan. After selling the goods tomorrow, she will go to the town office to find someone to help her apply for a license.

In the previous life, the first license plate issued was in early December, but the relevant applications must have been made in advance.

So Meng Shulan felt that she could do the same.

What do you mean by "it depends on the situation"? Meng Danhong was puzzled: "If you don't rely on the supply and marketing cooperative, do you still want to fight a guerrilla war? A business like a tailor shop must have a fixed location, right? Can you make money by doing it casually like this?"

Meng Shulan: "At the moment, we are just taking it one step at a time, and we don't have too many ideas."

Although we know the direction of future development, we will take it one step at a time before the policy is implemented.

Meng Danhong frowned when she heard this, "You guys, do you want to do business?" How come you don't have any ideas or arrangements at all?

Meng Shulan was stunned for a moment, "Yes."

This can't be explained.

Seeing Meng Shulan taking it for granted, Meng Danhong frowned even deeper. She opened her mouth to say something, but in the end nothing came out. She pursed her lips and said disdainfully, "Forget it. It's none of my business if I lose money." Then she turned around and walked away.

Meng Shulan: "Why is this person a bit weird?"

In the main room, He Jinqiu finished his work and stood up and asked, "Shulan, who is it?"

Meng Shulan: "Sister Danhong, you brought me a book."

"She brought you a book?" He Jinqiu was also a little surprised. After thinking for a while, he said, "You should be more careful. I can't say anything about Meng Danhong, but her mother is not a good person. If she gave you the book, if the child didn't come secretly, then her mother instigated her to do so. I don't know what bad idea she had."

"Mom, I know."

Meng Shulan felt that Meng Danhong must have come here quietly.

The second branch of the Meng family.

When Meng Danhong was going back, she was stopped by Ding Guixiang.

Ding Guixiang looked at her daughter sideways, "What did you just give Meng Shulan?"

The two families were not far apart, and the two men were talking at the door before, so it was normal for Ding Guixiang to see them.

Meng Danhong: "What can I give? I didn't give anything! We just bumped into each other, she called me and said hello, that's all."

"Can a greeting take that long?"

Ding Guixiang obviously didn't believe it.

And she saw it, the two of them clearly exchanged something just now.

It was just too far away, and she was hiding in the bamboo forest, so she couldn't see clearly.

Meng Danhong said impatiently, "Mom, what are you doing? What's wrong with saying a few more words? It's not like you can't talk anymore."

After saying this, Meng Danhong prepared to go back to the house, making it clear that she didn't want to bother with Ding Guixiang.

Since her daughter went to study in the county, her temper has become worse and worse, and she doesn't like to listen to her anymore. Ding Guixiang also complained, "Why are you running around outside when you have free time? Just read more books."

In order to have the capital to compete and show off to others, Ding Guixiang usually keeps Meng Danhong under strict control.

Meng Danhong said vaguely: "I understand."

Ding Guixiang muttered to herself, picked up the backpack under the eaves, and prepared to go out. Before leaving, she took a quick glance and saw the book in Meng Danhong's trouser pocket.

Ding Guixiang knew that her daughter had been reading that book frequently recently. She had bought it from the county bookstore with great difficulty.

When Ding Guixiang saw the book, her head buzzed and she finally understood what her daughter and Meng Shulan had just exchanged.

"You stupid girl, are you stupid? You actually showed your book to Meng Shulan! Do you want to embarrass me or yourself?"

Show it to anyone but not Meng Shulan. If she passes the exam, He Jinqiu will be so proud!

Ding Guixiang threw away what she was holding and started twisting her daughter's ear.

Meng Danhong ran very fast and slipped into the room and closed the door.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Ding Guixiang was so angry that she was jumping up and down outside.

"You stupid girl, you dare to close the door, do you want to die?"

Meng Danhong refused to admit it, "Mom, please understand, I didn't show her the book."

Meng Danhong threw the book on the table. Feeling unhappy and not wanting to explain too much, she simply fell on the bed and covered her head with the quilt.

As for studying and reading...

Forget it, I can’t learn it and I can’t understand it.

…

The next morning, before daybreak, several members of the Meng family got up and had breakfast. Then they put the clothing racks they would use for the stall on the donkey cart.

Mengfude borrowed the donkey cart from the village chief's family last night.

It is generally not easy to borrow the village chief's car, after all, he is busy. Meng Fude was just asking casually, thinking that he would go to Gu Hansong if it didn't work. He never expected that they would lend it to him as soon as he asked.

This is good too. I don’t have to borrow from Gu’s family.

It’s not good to always trouble Gu Hansong recently.

After packing up the things, Meng Fude took the two children to look after the house, while Meng Changli drove the car and took her mother and sister to the town.

There were many people on the street on market day, and business needed to be done, and the two children were too young to be taken with them.

It was just dawn when we set out.

There was no clock at home, so Meng Shulan estimated that it was probably a little after six o'clock.

This way, we arrived in town at exactly seven o'clock.

It was very early, but because it was market day, there were still a few people scattered around the streets.

Meng Shulan observed and found that many people came to set up stalls, such as people who shaved people's heads, and people who pushed a small cart to sell buns and steamed buns.

I didn’t pay much attention to these things before when I didn’t do business, but it turns out that so many people have started to boldly make money outside.

While on the way, the mother and her two daughters discussed where to set up the stall.

If you want a large flow of people, you still have to go near the supply and marketing cooperative.

At present, because there are no regulations in this regard, stalls can be set up anywhere as long as they do not block the road.

When Meng Changli was driving over, she happened to meet He Saijun pushing her sewing machine out to set up her stall.

Seeing the Meng family driving a donkey cart slowly approaching, He Saijun asked with some interest: "What are you doing today? Why are you here so early?" And they came in such a timely manner, all three of them, mother and daughter, were there.
