Chapter 394: Grab the Smell

Mao Manxi patted him lightly and said coquettishly, "You don't have hands, but you act like a big shot all day long. Do you think it's delicious to snatch food from my mouth?"

Li Hanqian raised his eyebrows at her: "My wife's things smell good when I grab them! What's wrong with that!"

The two of them went back and forth for five minutes, and An Zhixia couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Xia Xia, I'm sorry to make you laugh," Mao Manxi said first, "Don't be fooled by how well-behaved a man may be outside. When he gets home, he's not even as good as a child. He has to be treated like a big baby by his family."

An Zhixia thought of her big baby who had been away from home for a few days, and nodded in agreement: "That's right..."

Mao Manxi suddenly became interested, moved closer to her, and asked curiously, "What's going on? Is your husband the same? I remember Comrade Fang was a very serious and steady person. It's hard to imagine what he looks like in front of you."

Li Hanqian coughed softly and said helplessly, "Why are you so curious?"

His wife is curious about another man, and she does it in front of him. What the hell is this!

An Zhixia pursed her lips and smiled: "He is just a sticky candy. He is jealous before the child is even born."

Mao Manxi couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh: "My husband is the same, even now he is competing with the children for favor."

Li Hanqian was ruthlessly exposed by his wife, and he lost all his dignity.

He quickly stopped the two of them from chatting and returned to the previous topic: "Zhiqiu asked me to tell you that he has taken Comrade Fang Hongye and the old man and old woman to the hospital to reserve a bed.

The hospital beds are extremely tight, and it is the transition period between autumn and winter, so half of the wards in the obstetrics and gynecology department have been vacated as ordinary wards. This bed was only occupied because Brother Ming said hello and jumped the queue. There are beds outside the corridor!

Zhiqiu told you not to worry and will tell you when he comes back in the evening."

An Zhixia breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't have the chastity to ask, if her sister-in-law cut in line, what would happen to the people behind her? The hospital was crowded with people, and even though the security was strict now, children were often lost.

It was okay inside the house, but in the corridor, you could easily turn around and someone would take the child away.

Newborn babies all look alike, and people will insist that their children are their own after they are taken away. Before the paternity testing system was established, who could tell the difference?

"By the way, I've read this plan and it's quite feasible," Li Hanqian took out the stack of papers and a pen and said, "Our supply and marketing cooperative has its own supply channels, and we can get cloth, cotton, wool, cotton thread, etc. at a lower price. After deducting labor costs, we should be able to make a profit by selling them as finished products."

An Zhixia smiled and nodded: "Although most people are frugal and like to buy cloth, wool, cotton thread and cotton cloth to make their own, there are many young people who pursue fashion and beauty.

As long as our products are novel and generous enough, they will not be stingy with the money.

After all, the younger generation has jobs and relatively light family burdens, and this is the period when they are pursuing quality of life.

Besides, the family members are idle at home and are good at work. They can knit a sweater in less than two days. Even if they are paid a higher wage, they can make a profit by selling in large quantities when everyone buys clothes during the season change!"

Li Hanqian nodded repeatedly, "Yes, the profits from selling in bulk are also very considerable. It attracts people to come in, and the goods in the store can also be sold together."

An Zhixia pointed at the contents on the paper with her chin: "In order to prevent some people from taking advantage of loopholes, we have to remember all the information about the living person, including her own information, the materials she received, and the signed agreement, so as to avoid disputes later.

Let them buy the materials with their own money first, which is equivalent to paying a deposit. After the work is completed, if the quality is up to standard, they can get the labor fee and then receive the next batch of materials.

If the materials are short of weight or the quality is not up to standard, the finished products will be sent back for rework. If the materials are severely worn, we have the right to refuse to recycle them and put them on the blacklist and no longer give them odd jobs in the future."

"Yes, this will dissuade many people from taking advantage of the situation," Li Hanqian agreed, "As the saying goes, we help in emergencies but not in poverty. We want to improve the efficiency of the supply and marketing cooperative while helping those women who are idle at home and have good hands."

An Zhixia pondered for a moment and said, "For the time being, let our transport team and the family members at the TV station take over the work, test the effect, and then expand the scale."

Li Hanqian responded with a smile, lowered his head and began to record the materials and tools that An Zhixia requested to purchase.

"Brother Qian, do you know where there is a larger house nearby? I want to teach everyone how to make sweaters, scarves and other items. I have read a similar book before, but I just memorized it in a hurry. Later, the book was used by someone to light the stove."

"I'll go back and look for it," Li Hanqian nodded.

There are many books on handicrafts in An Zhixia Supermarket, but it is difficult to choose the style and pattern without seeing the materials. So she said, "Brother Qian, I have to see what kind of materials the supply and marketing cooperative headquarters has, and then we can focus on purchasing more and get a good price."

Li Hanqian raised his wrist to check his watch. It was almost time to get off work, so he asked, "Are you feeling well now? Can you take a car?"

"As long as it's not too bumpy, it's not a big problem," An Zhixia nodded. Her body wasn't that fragile. It was just that her family treated her like a porcelain doll.

"Okay then. Let's pick up the kids and meet your brother when he comes back. Let's go eat first and then take a look at the goods. I'll send you back tomorrow." Li Hanqian finalized the itinerary and let the two women talk. He hurriedly went out to find a place to call and ask someone to leave the key to the main warehouse, and then tried to contact An Zhiqiu.

It happened that An Zhiqiu had not yet left the hospital and was called over by the nurse to answer the phone.

Upon learning that Li Hanqian was taking his sister's family of four to do some business, he could not help but give Li Hanqian many instructions, asking him to drive carefully, not to run over rocks, and not to drive on dirt roads.

Li Hanqian naturally agreed patiently.

An Zhixia didn't have much to pack, as the Jiang family had everything. She checked the water, electricity, stove and windows at home, put on her clothes, picked up her bag, changed her shoes and followed them out.

She only followed Fang Yuan to send the children to school when they went to school.

However, in this era, especially in schools, few parents come to pick up their children, and students go back and forth in groups. If someone's parents come to pick up their children, they will become the envy of other students.

The school of the transport brigade is a combination of primary and junior high school.

An Zhixia was wearing a black woolen turtleneck dress she had just knitted, a bright red tweed waistcoat, black straight pants, and reddish brown flat-heeled leather shoes. She had a jade sweater chain she had made hanging on her collar, and her jet-black hair was combed to the left, loosely woven from the top of her head into a centipede shape.

Her facial features were bright and delicate, like the beauty in full bloom in autumn. Just standing at the school gate, she became a beautiful scenery. People passing by and children running outside could not help but slow down their pace and kept looking over here.

What's more, some little fans who are obsessed with appearance even deliberately walked away from her, hesitating to see who her parent was.

However, a few students from the same building came over with a smile and called out sweetly, "Hello, Aunt Fang, are you waiting for Fang Gexin, Fang Songyan, and Fang Lixi?

I saw Fang Gexin and Fang Songyan. They are waiting for their brother in the junior high school. They will be out soon. "

An Zhixia couldn't help but smile and took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from her bag. She gave two to each person and thanked them.

The little guys pushed it away awkwardly, then smiled and said thank you. Seeing the envious eyes of their classmates, they held their heads high, as if An Zhixia was their parent, and were extremely proud.

Only after they were far away did they share the science with their friends.

Now the children all knew that the beautiful auntie was Auntie Fang, whose family's living standard and the public security in the family quarters had improved dramatically. Everyone couldn't help but say that Auntie Fang was beautiful and kind.

The three children came with the junior high school students because Fang Lixi couldn't bear to keep her sisters waiting for a long time, so they were the first to come out. The three of them chatted and laughed as they walked to the door, and saw An Zhixia from a distance. The little girl immediately screamed with joy, jumped up on the spot, and instantly jumped out like a small cannonball.

But when she ran to An Zhixia, she stopped suddenly, then went up to her and hugged her affectionately, rubbing against her, her eyes sparkling and she said happily, "Mom, why did you come to pick us up today?"

"Let's go out for dinner today, and then you and mom will go do some errands, and we'll go to my great-grandmother's house to sleep tonight." An Zhixia touched her head and waved to the two children who ran over.

The group of children behind were also very envious and couldn't help but look at them.

There were still a few children who recognized An Zhixia and spread the news to their friends. Some people also recognized An Zhixia as a guest in the first episode of "Tao Tie" and were so excited that they wanted to take pictures.

Li Hanqian took them to a state-owned restaurant in the city center that entertained foreign guests. This restaurant was the largest in the entire Kyoto, five times the size of other restaurants, but it did not look like a large cafeteria.

The state-owned restaurant was renovated from a street-facing courtyard house that was damaged during foreign invasion. Its exterior retains the quaint yet exquisite flying eaves and painted walls. Walking past the white screen wall with calligraphy in the shape of flying dragons and phoenixes, you will find the open canteen.

In the summer evenings, a large TV would be placed behind the screen wall, and the yard would be filled with people.

But now it's cold, so everyone stays in the house with the fire wall burned out.

The supply and marketing cooperative was divided into two parts, one offering special Xiahua cuisine and the other offering Western food. They all had no dietary restrictions, so they went to the Western food area to eat something new.

It was dinner time and 30% of the tables in the restaurant were already occupied.

Each person ordered a steak and pasta soup set meal, plus a dessert, fruit salad and a drink. Smelling the food in the air, An Zhixia seemed to have returned to a few decades later, and her heart sighed for a moment.

It was the first time for the three children to come to such a place. They were very curious, but they were afraid of losing An Zhixia, so they restrained themselves from looking around. They just glanced around with their eyes, their little faces flushed with a little excitement and excitement.
