With her eyes open, she was faced with a mud-brick house and a strong, rough man. Xia Lan was bewildered.
She discovered she had actually returned to the 1970s, becoming an orphan who had jus...
"Of course, these are all the most popular styles over there, why don't you try them on!"
Xia Lan immediately took a set and let Xiao Ling try it on.
Xiaoling didn't refuse and went to the changing room in the corner to change into new clothes.
When Xiaoling came out, Xia Lan's eyes lit up. She went up to Xiaoling and let down her tied hair, changing it into a ponytail.
"Is it...good-looking?"
Xiaoling nervously clutched her clothes and looked at Xia Lan.
Xia Lan smiled and pulled Xiao Ling to her designated large mirror. Xiao Ling saw herself in the mirror and covered her mouth in disbelief.
"This...this is...me?"
Xiaoling covered her cheeks, and the person in the mirror also covered their face.
Xiaoling had no choice but to believe it; it really was her.
"Oh my god? Is that Xiaoling?"
Xu Li happened to come over and saw Xiao Ling, who had changed her clothes, and couldn't help but shout.
"You're so beautiful! Just like a movie star on TV."
Xu Li stared wide-eyed at Xiao Ling in front of her, her eyes shining.
I'm so envious.
"real!"
"Oh my, Xiaoling, you are so beautiful."
“If you hadn’t told me it was Xiaoling, I wouldn’t have recognized her.”
"It's like she's a completely different person. I never noticed before when Xiaoling always had a serious face. I never knew Xiaoling was so beautiful."
"Is it because of this dress? Oh, it looks so good..."
Xu Li's shouts attracted the others, who saw Xiao Ling wearing new clothes and looking like a completely different person.
Several people's eyes lit up; they never expected that simply changing clothes could change a person so much.
"It's so beautiful!"
They said it from the bottom of their hearts.
Xiaoling was also shocked by herself, and she didn't want to take off the clothes she was wearing.
"Xiao Lan! How much does this dress cost?"
Xiaoling walked up to Xia Lan, tugged at her clothes, and asked softly.
She decided that no matter the price, she would buy the dress.
"It's fifty yuan for takeout, but for you guys, it's the employee price!"
Xia Lan smiled at Xiao Ling.
What's the employee rate?
Xu Li was deeply moved and looked at Xia Lan longingly.
Xia Lan smiled and raised her hand, making a five.
"You'll all get half price! But only you guys, no one else is allowed!"
Xia Lan's words left Xu Li and the others completely dumbfounded.
"You...you...you gave us such a big discount?"
Xu Li was so excited that she couldn't speak.
"Since I like you guys so much, this is a reward for your hard work."
Xia Lan gently pinched Xu Li's cheek and smiled.
"Don't worry, we will definitely work hard."
Xu Li and the others exclaimed excitedly.
"I'll take this set!"
Xiaoling took out some money and gave it to Xialan.
Xia Lan counted the money and found it was ten yuan more than the half price she had promised them.
"Little Bell..."
Xiaoling pushed Xia Lan's hand back.
"Even if I have to pay an extra ten yuan for this outfit, I'll still make a profit, so please don't refuse!"
Xiaoling said earnestly.
“You’ve had a tough trip, traveling to so many cities all by yourself. I feel sorry for us because it’s not easy to earn money, and I feel sorry for you too.”
Xia Lan felt a warmth in her heart and glanced at Xiao Ling.
"Okay, then I'll accept it."
Xia Lan accepted it with a smile.
They exchanged a glance, both with smiles in their eyes.
Since the store officially opens tomorrow, Xu Li and the others tried on all the clothes in the store the day before.
Xia Lan had already made a profit before it even officially opened for business.
This gave her more confidence for tomorrow's opening.
After making all the necessary preparations for opening the shop tomorrow, Xia Lan went home.
I took a bath with Tuantuan and Yuanyuan, and then cuddled the two little ones and had a nice nap.
Preparing for the grand opening ceremony the following day.
The next morning, Xiao Yuqin knocked on the door.
Xia Lan got up sleepily and, together with Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan, washed their faces, brushed their teeth, and changed into new clothes.
Xiao Yuqin couldn't help but chuckle as she looked at her, who was still half-asleep.
Look, her toothbrush is almost poking her ear.
Xiao Yuqin mysteriously brought over a cup and placed it in front of Xia Lan.
Xia Lan's eyes widened instantly.
"coffee?"
"Mom, where did you get this coffee?"
Xiao Yuqin was about to give a brief introduction, but Xia Lan blurted it out.
Seeing that she knew about this, Xiao Yuqin smiled.
"I didn't expect you to know this. I was worried you'd be disgusted. Shall we give it a try?"
Xiao Yuqin looked at Xia Lan and smiled.
Xia Lan took the cup and took a sip.
This rich flavor.
"Mom, where did you get this coffee?"
Xia Lan exclaimed in delight.
"Qin Yu brought it back!"
Xiao Yuqin glanced at Xia Lan and gestured for her to look to her right.
Xia Lan was taken aback. What did Xiao Yuqin say?
Qin Yu?
Xia Lan stared blankly as she looked back in the direction Xiao Yuqin was pointing, and saw Qin Yu standing in the garden, watching her for who knows how long.
It seems he had been waiting for her to discover him all along.
Xia Lan stared at Qin Yu for several seconds until she finally came to her senses.
"Brother Yu!"
The moment she regained consciousness, Xia Lan rushed towards Qin Yu. Qin Yu looked at her and slowly opened his arms.
Xia Lan jumped up and hugged Qin Yu tightly, and Qin Yu hugged Xia Lan back just as tightly.
"I'm back."
Qin Yu hugged Xia Lan tightly, and Xia Lan wrapped her legs around Qin Yu's waist, hanging on him like a koala.
Xia Lan buried her face in Qin Yu's neck, smelling the familiar scent, and remained speechless for a long time.
