In this 80s military marriage story blending second chance romance and wealth-building, a woman dies in a car accident and is reborn into the 1980s as a 200-pound "lazy and unlikeable" woma...
Chapter 101 I, Ye Ying, have lost weight again?
After all, the old lady is only in her sixties.
If this age were in the 21st century, one could even develop a second spring, go to the square every day and dance with the grandfather, living a leisurely life.
After understanding the situation and knowing that the local government was helping to rebuild her home, Ye Ying hung up the phone with peace of mind.
After Ye Ying hung up the phone, she went to find Political Commissar He.
When Political Commissar He learned of her purpose, he immediately made a phone call and asked the other party to help investigate An Xiaotong and find her family.
Afterwards, he asked Ye Ying to go back and wait.
Ye Ying said goodbye to Political Commissar He and rode her 28-bar bicycle directly to the Red Sun Food Factory.
Hu Yong, the boss of Red Sun, was just worrying about how to contact Ye Ying to pay her the commission for this month, when she just happened to come to his door.
After receiving the commission calculated by the finance department, it turned out to be almost exactly what Ye Ying had imagined.
She had already anticipated that the sales of popsicles would be poor.
Among the twenty suppliers, more than half of them only sold goods once and never bought from Red Sun again.
There are a few remaining stores that are selling well, so they are still holding up.
So this popsicle selling venture ended in failure, and Ye Ying secretly planned to try again next year.
We need to make plans early for next year. It’s too late this year and we can’t even have a sip of soup.
Seeing Ye Ying's depressed expression, Hu Yong smiled and comforted her: "But you don't have to be discouraged, at least Coca-Cola is selling well!"
"Really?" Ye Ying's eyes lit up when she heard that Coke's sales were pretty good.
"How much goods did Xinxin Department Store import from here?"
She almost forgot about the Coke, which she was very excited about!
Hu Yong picked up a notebook and looked at the data on it. "About... nearly 100,000 bottles."
One hundred thousand bottles!
What is the concept?
Ye Ying had no idea how many people there were in this small place, so she wasn't sure whether selling 100,000 bottles of Coke a month was a good number.
However, judging from Hu Yong's expression, he should be satisfied with the result.
However, since September has not yet ended, the commission for Coke will not be settled until October.
This time, Ye Ying could only take the meager income that "Popsicle" brought her.
It's just a matter of a few days, no big deal.
After leaving the Red Sun Food Factory, Ye Ying went to the Friendship Market.
The weather was getting colder and the popsicle seller had disappeared.
Even the number of stalls in the Friendship Market has decreased significantly.
I don’t know if it’s because of the flood, but there are almost no stalls selling crops and vegetables.
But she unexpectedly saw the boy selling bamboo shoots, who had changed his selling items today.
Last time, I accidentally heard Hao Yonggang say that Linkeng Village had built a drainage channel, so it was not easily flooded.
Judging from his attitude today, it seems that this flood really hasn't affected their village much.
Ye Ying came to the young man's stall and stood on the big scale beside it.
When the young man saw Ye Ying, he was obviously stunned for a moment.
After hesitating for a long time, I finally recognized it was her.
"Sister! It's you. I was wondering why you looked so familiar. I almost couldn't recognize you!"
Knowing it was Ye Ying, the young man consciously started adding weights to the large scale without any hesitation.
"Sister, why have you lost so much weight? Hasn't your brother-in-law given you food during this period?"
Ye Ying smiled and focused on the numbers on the large scale.
"Quick, tell me how much it weighs."
After returning to the military compound from the countryside, she found that her clothes were obviously much looser when she put them on again.
Even the pants that always squeezed the belly fat to make it look like three layers of swimming rings were now about two fingers wider.
So she is very clear that she has lost weight, but the exact amount of weight she has lost can only be determined by data.
The young man didn't say anything. He looked left and right, frowning and muttering to himself from time to time: "It's not right. Is the scale broken?"
Ye Ying heard it with keen ears and immediately asked, "What do you mean?"
The young man raised his head and shook his head in bewilderment: "Sister, the scale shows that you are now 160 pounds."
Hearing this number, Ye Ying was very excited: I, Ye Ying, have lost weight again! ?
"160 pounds! Is that true?"
“I think it’s fake.”
The young man still frowned, "The last time you came, you still weighed over 190 pounds. How can someone lose over 30 pounds in less than a month? That's ridiculous. There must be something wrong with the scale."
Ye Ying: "You..."
This boy is really good, he actually dared to question her.
"Sister, why don't you come down first and we weigh it again? I still feel something is not right." The young man suggested.
"Okay, let's do it again."
Ye Ying got down from the big scale, then stood back on it again, watching with anticipation as the young man started to hang the weights on it.
I hope the result this time will still be 160 pounds.
but...
"Sister, 170 pounds." The young man said with a smile.
The young man's smile made Ye Ying depressed: "Why do you have that expression when I weigh 160 pounds, but you are so happy when I weigh 170 pounds?"
"Because I think it's ridiculous to lose so much weight in such a short period of time!"
"170 is still normal."
"Okay." Ye Ying got down from the big scale angrily.
The last time she came, she weighed 194 pounds, and this time she weighed 170 pounds, which means she has lost more than 20 pounds.
Although I haven't lost 30 pounds, I'm close to it.
No wonder when she just returned to the compound, the eyes of those military wives who had always regarded her as a thorn in their eyes almost popped out of their heads.
Especially Lin Ranran, who knocked on the door the night he returned.
That look made him want to stare at her.
After weighing herself, Ye Ying asked the young man about the flood situation in Dakeng Village.
Upon asking, we learned that Tai Hang Village was also more or less affected by the disaster.
However, the situation was not as serious as that in Dayan Village, and no casualties occurred.
After all, this is an unprecedented flood in the city, but because their village has dug a new drainage channel, the impact will be relatively much smaller.
There was no major damage to the houses in Linkeng Village, but the crops in the fields were affected. Potatoes, sweet potatoes and the like will probably not be available for sale in the short term.
Ye Ying then noticed that what the young man was selling today were long beans.
This thing seems to be grown a lot in the north and is usually used to stew meat, but she doesn't like it.
Despite this, Ye Ying still took some symbolically.
Because there seems to be nothing to sell in the Friendship Market today, it seems that it was all affected by the flood.
After buying the beans, Ye Ying went to the meat stall and bought a few pounds of spare ribs and a large pig's trotter.
She has some money now, and she hasn't eaten well for almost a month, so she can't treat herself badly today.
When I had bought almost everything and was about to go home, I passed by a "Swallow Women's Products Store".
Judging from the name, it should be a store that specializes in selling things for women.
