Well......

I really didn't expect that her request would be like this. It seems that she is really in conflict with Lin Jiayu.

Lin Jiayu seemed anxious and wanted to argue with her, but when Cheng Maixiang glared at him fiercely, he immediately nodded and agreed.

"Okay, don't worry about that. Didn't this comrade also say that it can be completed within a month? Since you are in a hurry, I will naturally give you priority."

Ruan Peiling finally let out some of the anger that had been pent up in her chest. She took the IOU written by Cheng Maixiang, paid the deposit, glanced at Lin Jiayu triumphantly, and then walked away with her head held high like a victorious rooster.

After Ruan Peiling walked away, Cheng Maixiang took out fifty yuan from his pocket and handed it to him. "It's hard for you to work so hard to help me attract business and cooperate with me to perform such a big show. But having said that, your acting is really good. Do you perform often?"

Lin Jiayu didn't take the money she handed over. He smiled and said, "I'm not acting. I really want you to help me make a few clothes like this."

Cheng Maixiang looked at him in confusion, and suddenly remembered that he was doing it for ten friends. For some reason, anger immediately surged to her chest.

Haha, friends, female friends, ten of them. She has really a lot of female friends. Then what am I, the eleventh?

Cheng Maixiang stuffed the money back into his hand without saying a word, turned around and walked away, saying angrily, "I'm busy, find someone else to do it."

Lin Jiayu was a little confused, not knowing why she suddenly got angry, and hurriedly chased after her to stop her, "Maizi, it's my fault. I thought you wanted to make more money by doing more business, so I came up with this idea without your permission. If you don't want to do it, just pretend I never said anything. Please don't be angry."

Cheng Maixiang calmed down instantly.

Yes, this is something that allows her to make money, why should she be angry? Besides, she and he are just friends, what right does she have to criticize him for making friends with other women?

It's really incomprehensible.

Even though Cheng Maixiang figured it out, she still felt a pang of sadness in her chest when she thought about how popular he was. She was about to ridicule him, but before she could open her mouth, her stomach started to growl.

Cheng Maixiang blushed suddenly. Lin Jiayu looked at the two red clouds floating on her snow-white face and was a little distracted. But he calmed down in an instant and said with a smile, "Since you are hungry, let's find a place to eat."

The county town is not big, so naturally there are not any decent restaurants. However, there happens to be a Red Star Hotel not far to the west of the park.

The restaurants of this era were all state-owned, and were generally used to entertain travelers on business trips from other places, and also for people from well-off families to get married. Unlike in later generations, they were rarely frequented by many ordinary citizens, so even at mealtimes, there were almost no tables of customers in the restaurant.

The restaurant is not big, only less than 30 square meters. There are more than a dozen tables with two wooden chairs on both sides. The tables are covered with white tablecloths, but the tablecloths look a bit greasy, and some even have yellow spots.

Cheng Maixiang chose a table by the corner and sat down. Lin Jiayu handed the menu to Cheng Maixiang and clicked on it a few times. "Maizi, I ordered these dishes. If you want anything else, I'll go to the window and tell you."

Cheng Maixiang glanced at the dishes he ordered. Wow, they were all hard dishes like fish and meat, and the prices were not low. She wanted to persuade him to save some money, but then she thought again, he already had enough money to make custom clothes for ten female friends, so why should she be so obsessed with saving money for him? After all, who knows which female friend might benefit from the saved money.

The dishes came up quickly, and Cheng Maixiang didn't bother to be polite with him. He picked up his chopsticks and started eating, not missing a single dish, as if he was using these dishes as an outlet for his anger.

Lin Jiayu only moved his chopsticks slightly for each dish and spent most of his time taking care of Cheng Maixiang. As long as Cheng Maixiang took a few more bites of a dish, that dish would be moved in front of her soon.

Cheng Maixiang was even more angry. Humph, he is so tactful in front of girls, no wonder he is so popular with so many people.

Cheng Maixiang felt a breath stuck in her chest and couldn't breathe, so she deliberately went against him. Whenever he put a dish in front of her, she would pick up the dish that was a little further away. After struggling for a while, Lin Jiayu finally gave up, picked up a glass of water and went to the window.

Humph, I'm different from your female friends. I can't be coaxed by just a meal.

A glass of water was placed next to her. Cheng Maixiang raised her head and saw a smile in her fair face, with curved eyes and bright eyes.

Cheng Maixiang suddenly stopped.

It's strange. What am I doing? Why am I jealous of his friend for no reason? Am I really in love with him?

Cheng Maixiang's heart trembled, and she quickly shook her head to throw away the thought. She stopped acting like a child and wiped her hands with a handkerchief. "Do you really want me to make you ten sets of clothes like this?"

Lin Jiayu nodded and said, "I have a good friend named Zhou Minqi, who has been hanging out in Guangshi. He came to see me last month and told me that the people in Guangshi are very smart and can get clothes from large state-owned factories to some sales outlets. He also has some connections at the sales outlets, but unfortunately he can't get in touch with the state-owned factories.

I saw the clothes you're wearing today, and they're so much better looking than those designed and produced by state-owned factories. If you're willing to do this deal, then make him ten sets and let him try them out. If they sell well, we can provide you with a long-term supply. Of course, if you don't mind the effort, then just ignore what I said."

So that’s how it is!

No wonder he reported his height in 5-centimeter increments, and most of them were concentrated at a height of 1.6 meters. Come to think of it, this should be the average height of most women.
