Chapter 272 Official Residence
To be honest, she had had enough of being in the same room with Yang Xiaohong. She had had enough a long time ago. Although Yang Xiaohong was a hot-tempered girl, she really didn't give face to people she didn't like.
But Xia Jing...
"Forget it, you're married now, and you don't live here alone. It's not convenient for me to live here!"
Meng Xiaoxiao still refused. The couple was together, and it was easy to tell what they did at night since they were young. It would not be convenient for her, a grown-up girl, to live there.
"Oh, Xiaoxiao, we are good friends. Besides, aren't we still working together? What's inconvenient about living here? There's already an empty room in our house!"
"But..." Meng Xiaoxiao still felt something was wrong, but Xia Jing was very assertive, "Okay, just listen to me. Stay here for now. If you don't feel comfortable living here, you can move back later!"
Meng Xiaoxiao thought about it and realized that this was the truth. She also didn't want to live in the village chief's house forever.
Just like that, Meng Xiaoxiao stayed here. When Xia Jing talked to Zhou Hao about this, Zhou Hao frowned and said, "Isn't this inappropriate for you?"
Zhou Hao also knew that Meng Xiaoxiao's family background was not simple. He also didn't expect that Xia Jing would become good friends with Meng Xiaoxiao and even do something together.
It seems that Xia Jing is not completely useless? At least, she has been able to make money recently.
Nowadays, everyone is generally a little poor, so where can we make so much money?
"What's inappropriate about this? Don't we have a spare room? I don't think it's a big deal to let Xiaoxiao live there!"
The house Xia Jing rented had four rooms in total, three main rooms and an adjoining annex. She let Meng Xiaoxiao live in the annex.
"That's fine!" Zhou Hao was secretly happy. Meng Xiaoxiao was living in their house, so they would have more opportunities to meet each other in the future. They would see each other every day. He believed that with his charm, he would be able to win Meng Xiaoxiao over.
When he was at the educated youth camp before, he already had some designs on Meng Xiaoxiao, and now he has the upper hand over her.
Zhou Hao concealed his inner thoughts and showed a doting look on his face: "Okay, you have the final say in our family!"
Xia Jing raised her head proudly. She knew that Zhou Hao was a mean person. As long as she could make money, no matter how dissatisfied she was, Zhou Hao would suppress her.
She must hold on to Meng Xiaoxiao's thigh, and hold on tightly. Even if she can really become bigger and stronger in the future, she will need a strong backing, and Meng Xiaoxiao is the most reliable candidate.
…
Having already decided to make clothes for the four elderly people, Xia Liang finished all the work at hand before preparing to go to the town.
Also, I have been making jewelry in recent days and have saved a lot.
She estimated that it would take some time for the town to digest the news, so she gave the ladies a holiday.
The sales volume of this kind of jewelry is not consistently high, so she still needs to confirm with Sister Meihua first. Otherwise, if that place doesn't accept it after she makes it, she will have to find a way to sell it somewhere else.
Ning Zhiyuan also wanted to get the old man's size, and Xia Liang had already thought about what style to make for them. Grandpa and grandma are old, so she made them beautiful Tang suits, and I believe both old people will like it.
As for the mother-in-law, thinking of Su Yaxian whom she had met last time, Xia Liang decided to make a cheongsam for her. She was a woman who loved beauty very much, and looked very elegant and noble, and the cheongsam could best show her temperament.
As for the father-in-law whom she had never met, Xia Liang discussed it with Ning Zhiyuan for a while, and finally decided to make a suit.
After deciding on the style, Ning Zhiyuan and Xia Liang went to the town together. This time they brought more things, and each of them rode a bicycle, pedaling very fast on the road.
"Hey, Liangliang, why did you come early?" It was not time to gather yet, but Xia Liang arrived a day early this time.
"Sister Meihua, I'm going to stop making clothes for a few days!"
Hearing Xia Liang say that she wanted to stop, Zhang Meihua's face changed and she asked hurriedly: "Liangliang, did something happen at home? Why do you want to stop all of a sudden? The customers are very satisfied with the clothes you make, and many people come to ask about them."
Zhang Meihua was still a little reluctant to leave, after all, there were too many people coming to ask about clothes. In the past, the fabrics here were not easy to sell, but now, business is much better.
"Sister Meihua, nothing happened at home, but there is something I haven't told you yet. Am I pregnant? My husband and I are worried, so we want to go back home for a checkup!"
Zhang Meihua didn't expect this to be the reason. She couldn't hide her joy on her face: "Really? That's great. Liangliang, a woman should give birth to a child as soon as she gets married, no matter if it's a boy or a girl, because it's the foundation for her to settle down in her husband's family!"
"You, now that you're pregnant, you don't have to rush to make clothes! You said you want to go for a checkup, and I support you. The health of the child is more important, and you must check everything carefully!"
Xia Liang also nodded quickly: "Yes, my husband is in Beijing, so she wanted to take me there for a check-up. She said the equipment there is more advanced!"
Zhang Meihua looked envious, as she had never been there in her life.
"It might take a week to go back and forth, so the clothes making process..."
Xia Liang still felt a little guilty. When she said that, she had planned to come once every five days, but now she has stopped because of her own reasons. She still feels a little guilty!
"Isn't it just a week? Liangliang, don't worry, it's okay, I'll talk to them!"
"If you are willing to wait, you can wait two more days. If you are not willing to wait, there is nothing we can do. This is a voluntary thing. We can't force others to do it here, right?"
Xia Liang thought about it and it really made sense.
"Then I'm going to trouble you, Sister Meihua!"
"Oh, and there are also ornaments. I brought all the ones I made recently. Can you take a look at the quantity? Can our supply and marketing cooperative still handle it? If it's too much, I can stop here for a while!"
Zhang Meihua was surprised. She had not told Xia Liang about the jewelry, but what Xia Liang said was true. Not many people came to buy it at the beginning, but later, through word of mouth, the sales of the headdresses increased rapidly.
At that time, the supply and marketing cooperative did not have much inventory, and even had a phenomenon of supply exceeding demand. However, it did not last long. In recent days, sales have begun to slow down, and the supply and marketing cooperative still has a lot of inventory!
She saw the big bag Xia Liang brought over and sighed, "Liangliang, you are really smart. You are right. The sales of jewelry have been average recently. How about we stop there for a while?"
Xia Liang nodded: "Alright! It's just right for me to let the ladies who help me take a break!"
"I also want to buy some fabric. I'm going to meet my husband's family soon. I don't have anything good here, so I want to make a set of clothes for each of them!"
