"Let's work hard and use all this money to get married. Our family can't be disgraced. I've also saved some money myself, so I can use it if it's not enough."
"Don't talk about wages. We're a family, isn't it all about me doing this for your own good and you doing this for mine?"
"Xiaofei, let's work hard and make it big. Your older sister and I are very happy to see you making progress."
Anyway, it doesn't matter whether we make a profit or a loss in the future.
Now the whole family's hearts are with him, they are all united as one, and there will be no wavering when they are together!
Chen Yifei nodded, his eyes reddening with emotion. It was wonderful; not only had he returned to that era of passionate struggle, but he had also returned to a time when his family was healthy and could still strive relentlessly forward.
"Okay, sis."
Chen Shuang smiled and said, "Let's eat quickly. Tomorrow, Mom and I will go to see Matchmaker Deng. We'll have her take us there, and that will be considered the formal betrothal. Then we'll set the wedding date and ask our future daughter-in-law for her opinion."
"Okay. I'll have to trouble you and Mom to take care of these things."
"My second sister and I are busy making money. As for Dad, your daughter-in-law is in the brigade, so make sure she doesn't get bullied!"
Chen Jianguo was getting annoyed: "That's enough. Am I a dog? I'm showing you this and that all day long. Can't you do it yourself?"
"Finish eating and lie down right away, you brat, don't get in my way."
Seeing his father so easily angered and never having a good temper, Chen Yifei actually smiled.
This is how he and his father interact, indicating that his father probably doesn't have many worries at the moment.
Chen Yifei lay on the cold bed, thinking that in the future he would have a wife and children and a warm bed, and that the soft and gentle He Runqing would warm the quilt for him. The more he thought about it, the more comfortable he felt!
Who knows, there might be another child, making it a family of three.
Thinking of the sweet fragrance on He Runqing's clothes, Chen Yifei imagined that his own home would be filled with such warmth in the future.
I accidentally touched her skin; it was warm. I remembered her scratching the little mosquito bites on her body, her slender white fingers swaying back and forth—the images were all right before my eyes, lingering there…
Chen Yifei had only been thinking about it casually, but who knew that this one thought would lead him to think much more...
I've become inexplicably irritable.
Fortunately, I get enough exercise every day, which expends some energy; otherwise, tonight would have been a sleepless night.
After all, I have to sell potato pancakes tomorrow!
For the next few days, Chen Yifei and Chen Xue were busy, leaving early and returning late every day.
Chen Xue was initially skeptical, thinking she would go over and keep an eye on her younger brother to see if he had done anything wrong.
Unexpectedly, his diligent street vending actually garnered him a considerable number of loyal customers. Chen Xue was even more excited when she saw the money he was making.
My younger brother is really something!
The first person in the village, the first to step out.
On Saturday evening, the siblings arrived at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative. The ticket scalper gave them a bicycle ticket, as well as tickets for a radio, a watch, and a sewing machine.
Chen Yifei gave him the money, and Chen Xue felt heartbroken seeing those tens of yuan disappear just like that.
But I also know that this stuff is hard to come by; it would be great if I could just buy some that are being resold.
After accepting the gifts, Chen Yifei went into the supply and marketing cooperative and bought candy, dried persimmons, peanuts, and melon seeds—items with auspicious meanings. The sales clerk wrapped all the items up.
The saleswoman had initially hoped to strike up a conversation with Chen Yifei, but now, looking at all the items, she couldn't help but ask, "Sir, are you getting married?"
Chen Yifei nodded: "Yes, we bought an engagement certificate."
"We won't buy big items like sewing machines at the supply and marketing cooperative. My sister and I will go to the department store to buy them, and they will deliver them to the village by tricycle."
The sales clerk's smile was somewhat forced, and she looked a little disappointed.
She certainly made a lot of money today. But such a capable man must be very wealthy; she'll never be able to get married... Others are already getting married.
I couldn't help but feel sad, and I even started to shed tears.
Chen Xue: "..."
She looked at her younger brother speechlessly. It was one thing for him to suddenly become successful, but with just a little talent, he could attract attention and flirt with his looks and demeanor.
After they came out, Chen Xue frowned and looked at him: "There are so many temptations out there. If you marry He Runqing, can you be good to others?"
"Sure! She'll be my wife after we get married. I'll definitely treat her better than I treat you."
Chen Xue said, "I'm just a little worried about your character."
Don't worry.
Chen Yifei had seen so many women in his past life, all kinds of them, and all kinds of women wanted to please him.
But I'm so tired of it!
If someone's true intentions are written all over their face, how many good girls are there in this world?
How many of them are just after money? There are plenty of people who lack ability but dream of marrying into a good family. Once they have money, they're surrounded by beautiful women and kind people. He's already seen it all.
I've become indifferent to life's realities; all I want is a good woman.
Good women are not simple. He dares to say he never met a single one in his past life. He could see through their disguises at a glance.
Fortunately, there is still a chance to salvage the relationship in this lifetime. He Runqing is the one and only wife he is destined to have.
The two went to the department store and selected these items. Combined with the food and other items they had bought from the supply and marketing cooperative earlier, they had almost spent all the money they had saved over the past few days.
Making money is hard, but spending it is like water flowing away.
The more this happened, the more motivated Chen Yifei became to make money.
Seeing the saccharin and goat milk powder, Chen Yifei thought of his wife's soft face, which sometimes looked a little pale: "Give me some of these too."
Take some back for her to eat.
He remembered that when he went into He Runqing's room, there was a faint smell of milk candy, and there were these saccharin products on the table.
The little girl is picky about food, and these things were given to her by her family. From now on, Chen Yifei will buy them for his wife.
Thinking about it fills me with a sense of satisfaction.
Chen Xue smiled and said, "I still have two cloth coupons here, to make clothes for my sister-in-law. She seems to be from a well-off family, so we can't neglect her."
"My sister is so thoughtful." Chen Yifei gave his second sister a thumbs up. While the girls themselves could think of things like clothing, he could only think of food to satisfy her…
"What's so thoughtful? Two tickets are for one piece of clothing for you and one for He Runqing. It'll make the marriage proposal tomorrow quick and easy!"
The sales clerk asked about their figures, and when He Runqing's name was mentioned, Chen Yifei felt a little embarrassed.
He initially said he didn't remember, but the lingering warmth of her waist and the feeling of her measurements still lingered, so he vaguely remembered them. Unusually, he blushed. He had chosen a pink cheongsam, naturally to alter his figure, and held it up, imagining He Runqing's incredibly soft waist, so delicate it could be encircled in one hand…
“Make the waist even thinner, about the length of two thumb segments cut off from the fabric.”
"As for the slit, sew it a little more."
It's almost up to my thighs.
