Han Qiushi's narrow eyes immediately turned cold and sinister, and his expression became extremely stern.

What are you saying?

"Who are you talking to? Me?" Hu San felt a pang of guilt. Could this person have heard what he had just whispered?

Han Qiushi's expression turned cold at this moment, and with his tall stature, he was quite intimidating standing there.

But Hu San immediately thought that he was the village chief's son, so why should he be afraid of a sent-down youth?

Thinking about how Lin Xiaoxiao had taught him a lesson last time, it wouldn't look good for him to confront a girl himself. But wouldn't it be perfect to go after Lin Xiaoxiao's boyfriend to get revenge?

Hu San immediately puffed out his chest and said, "You're Lin Xiaoxiao's boyfriend?"

"Her taste is really bad. How could she choose someone like you, a educated youth who only knows how to work but has nothing else?"

"I heard you're living off her. Lin Xiaoxiao is really blind to have picked such a boyfriend."

"I think you're nothing but a spineless coward who lives off a woman!"

"Really? If he didn't choose someone like me, would he choose someone like you, a third-class cripple?" Han Qiushi frowned upon hearing this, his expression turning even colder.

He gently placed the things in his hands on the ground, and then silently stretched his back.

This made Hu San inexplicably nervous.

"Damn it!! Me, a third-degree disabled person? I'm still the village chief's son. Any woman who marries me will live a good life. What the hell do you have?"

"Being tall doesn't make you special. In this area, I have plenty of ways to make you unable to hold your head up! Let me tell you..."

"Bang."

Before Hu San could finish speaking, Han Qiushi delivered a heavy punch to Hu San's face.

"Bang."

"This punch is for Xiaoxiao. She's such a good person, I won't allow her to appear in the mouths of trash like you."

"Bang"

"This punch was for myself, to prove who the weakling is."

"Bang"

"This punch was for the villagers of your village. Just because your father is the village chief doesn't mean you can be so arrogant and domineering. Who gave you that right?"

"Bang"

"This punch wasn't for anyone else, it was just because I didn't like you."

Han Qiushi grabbed Hu San by the collar with one hand and threw a punch with the other.

Hu San tried desperately to pry Han Qiushi's hands apart with his two thin arms, but no matter what he did, he couldn't.

Hu San was no match for Han Qiushi; there was a fundamental difference in their physiques and strength.

One was tall, the other was thin.

From a distance, Han Qiushi looked like he was carrying a little chick, beating Hu San so badly that Hu San had no chance to fight back.

"Stop...stop hitting me..." Han Qiushi's punches completely stunned Hu San.

They immediately switched to begging for mercy.

Han Qiushi stopped, satisfied, when he saw Hu San's face swollen like a pig's head, and loosened Hu San's collar.

Hu San realized that the strength in his body had disappeared, and immediately took several steps back.

"Don't let me hear you say anything about Xiaoxiao again. If I do, I'll beat you up every time," Han Qiushi warned.

If we're just talking about him, that's fine, but if we're talking about Lin Xiaoxiao, then it's not acceptable.

Furthermore, such bullies need to be taught a lesson.

"Did you hear me?" Han Qiushi asked sternly.

Upon hearing this, Hu San covered his face, which was in excruciating pain, and took a half step back, fearing that Han Qiushi might attack him again if things went wrong.

"Han Qiushi, do you think you're something special just because you have some strength?"

Upon hearing this, Han Qiushi took a step forward, as if to continue the fight: "You won't admit your mistake, you're not convinced, are you?"

"I'm not convinced! You think you're so great at fighting? Just you wait, you'll be begging for mercy someday!!!"

Seeing that he was about to be beaten again, Hu San said some harsh words and immediately took off running back.

......

After returning home, Han Qiushi did not mention what had just happened to Lin Xiaoxiao. He didn't want to bring up someone like that and offend Xiaoxiao's ears.

Lin Xiaoxiao is drawing blueprints at home today.

She already had some initial ideas about good fabrics; she wanted to make not only garments but also loungewear.

The fabric is made of pure cotton and is completely flawless. It is very warm and comfortable to wear, especially for loungewear.

It's getting cold soon, so it can be used as a thermal garment; in spring and autumn, it can be used as a light-weight garment.

When she was drawing the blueprints, she was considering the practicality of the clothes, because in those days, both food and cloth were in short supply.

The clothes are practical, so even more people want to buy them.

Lin Xiaoxiao and Captain Wang, a village cadre, had discussed this kind of topic.

The goal was to create high-end finished products, but there are many intricacies involved, and it takes a long time to get things going.

After thinking it over, she realized that there was no need to waste time on something uncertain.

Lin Xiaoxiao then changed her mind and decided to make it into loungewear.

As soon as the idea was proposed, all the village officials agreed with it.

Farmers live a very frugal life. If they could wear the same clothes for three seasons, they would definitely want them a lot.

After deciding on the direction, Lin Xiaoxiao took advantage of the fact that no one was home and drew several designs for loungewear.

After she finished, she took the blueprints to the experienced aunties.

At first glance, it didn't seem too difficult to make, and many people liked the clothes. Some even said they wanted to buy a set if the clothes were made.

Lin Xiaoxiao divided the loungewear into three categories: dark colors for men, brighter colors for women, and solid colors for children.

After finalizing the design, she began to determine the dimensions.

Busy times always fly by, and after about a week, many things were already finished.

There were many novel cloth bags, beautifully patterned handkerchiefs, avant-garde headbands, and sturdy shoes.

With a considerable amount of goods piling up in the warehouse, Lin Xiaoxiao and Han Qiushi went to the county town. Through Du Juan's introduction, the director of the county's supply and marketing cooperative said he was willing to take a look at the goods.

Uncle Gan drove the oxcart directly to the location Lin Xiaoxiao and the others had mentioned. Seeing that the director of the supply and marketing cooperative hadn't arrived yet, they checked the contents of the oxcart one last time.

Check if the goods you received are correct. If you find any defective products, it's not too late to pick them out now.

They waited a short while before a man carrying a briefcase appeared.

"Excuse me, is this Comrade Han Qiushi?" the man asked uncertainly, noting that there were three people at the agreed-upon location.

Upon hearing this, Han Qiushi stepped forward and replied, "That's me. I'm Aunt Du. Wang asked me to wait for you."

Upon hearing the exact surname, the director of the supply and marketing cooperative greeted Han Qiushi with a friendly smile and began chatting.

After exchanging a few words, the director said he needed to inspect the items first, and if the quality was satisfactory, they would accept them.
