When Mrs. Bai heard that she wanted to buy a house here for her wedding, she was somewhat tempted.
Since the couple doesn't live with the husband's family, they are indeed very comfortable.
In those days, it was relatively rare for children to live alone; even sons and daughters-in-law from wealthy families had to live with their parents.
Although those two families were wealthy, the mothers-in-law were very domineering.
If possible, she would naturally prefer to marry a daughter and be more comfortable.
Seeing that she was moved, Mrs. Lu pressed her advantage. "If you ask me, it's certainly good to marry up, but if the mother-in-law and sisters-in-law are too domineering, the young wife will feel stifled."
"It's better to find someone who's just okay, someone whose family doesn't have that many sons, so the competition won't be so fierce."
"I only have one son, Wensheng, and all the family property will be his in the future."
"I will also treat my daughter-in-law well, after all, I will rely on her in the future."
“If we buy a house here, we can see my family anytime. If all else fails, we can open a factory here and move the whole family here. We won’t have to be separated and can develop our careers here.”
This is the Lu family's ultimate goal: to develop their business here and make more money.
Madam Bai, on the other hand, thought their plan was quite good.
Although the Lu family is not as good as them, they are not bad either.
Moreover, Mrs. Lu indeed only had one son, Lu Wensheng, so there were no sisters-in-law or daughters competing for him.
If the Lu family were to develop their business here, it would be worth considering.
Mrs. Lu knew that things were in order when she saw that her attitude had softened.
Quickly take out the flower tea and wedding cakes you bought. "You said you liked this flavor of wedding cake before, so I bought you a few more flavors. Try them."
Madam Bai was a little nicer and tried everything.
I only tried it out of politeness, but I didn't expect that every flavor was so good.
These throat lozenges, in particular, are quite smooth and soothing, and quite comfortable.
"Great, this store must be located in a department store, right? The quality is really good."
Mrs. Lu dared not say that she bought it from a small corner shop, and only said, "The owner of that shop is very mysterious. It is said that the owner came back from abroad, otherwise the taste would not be so unique."
"If you like it, I'll bring you more next time."
Mrs. Bai really liked it, especially the throat lozenges, which were quite comforting.
"Next month is my nephew's son's one-month celebration, and we need to order some wedding cakes. Why don't you take me to that shop? I'll order some for my family."
Mrs. Lu felt that Sheng Yueqing's store wasn't high-end enough, so she said, "I'll just have one of their employees come over and confirm with you, so you don't have to go there yourself."
Mrs. Bai thought it was a good idea.
“Okay, I’ll ask my mother to come over tomorrow. It just so happens that a nephew of mine is getting engaged, so we can buy them together.”
Mrs. Lu felt that Mrs. Bai was entrusting her with this joyous occasion because she wanted to be close to her, so she smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll bring the person over to you tomorrow."
In a good mood, she went to find Sheng Yueqing and asked her to go to the Bai family with her the next day.
Sheng Yueqing was wearing a black work uniform and peeling taro, planning to make a taro cake to send to some young ladies from wealthy families.
Cakes are profitable and bring in money quickly, so she plans to make some high-end cakes to earn some extra cash.
She was quite surprised to see Mrs. Lu bringing her business. "Going to the Bai family? Do you want to order wedding cakes and candies?"
Mrs. Lu held her chin high, as if she owed the business to her, and her tone was very arrogant.
"Yes, they are a wealthy family. If I hadn't introduced you, you wouldn't have been able to bring in so much business."
Business deals make us good friends, and Sheng Yueqing's smile was quite genuine.
"Thank you so much! How about we have dinner here tonight? I'll treat you to something nice."
Mrs. Lu didn't believe there was anything good to eat here, and waved her hand dismissively, "No need, dress nicely tomorrow, don't embarrass me."
"If you perform well, your boss will make a profit."
"When your boss makes a good profit, he'll naturally give you a tip."
Sheng Yueqing smiled and didn't deny it, "Okay, thank you."
"I will be there on time tomorrow."
She only realized that the address given by Mrs. Lu was the same as the address given by Miss Bai.
That's perfect, we can deliver the goods there.
That evening, she told He Yushen about delivering goods to the Bai family, saying, "You can take me to the Bai family tomorrow; Mrs. Lu will be there too."
He Yu paused in his deep cut of meat. "Mrs. Lu is here too?"
What is her relationship with the Bai family?
Sheng Yueqing thought of Lu Wensheng being with Miss Bai, and then, recalling the address Mrs. Lu had mentioned, guessed, "I guess the Bai family is the kind of family Mrs. Lu is trying to curry favor with."
"Or perhaps the two families are planning a marriage alliance."
I guess Lu Wensheng and Miss Bai, whom I saw at the flower shop that day, were on a blind date.
He Yushen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Lu Wensheng was going on a blind date with Miss Bai. "Then I'll go with you tomorrow?"
Sheng Yueqing shook her head, "You need to watch the shop."
There always needs to be one person left in the shop.
"Besides, I'll be right back. You can come pick me up in two hours."
He Yushen understood that he couldn't hold back in business, so he nodded sensibly, "Okay, I'll pick you up then."
There's a clock in the shop; he'll keep an eye on it.
the next day.
Sheng Yueqing got up early to get ready, changing into a white floral fitted sweater and dark jeans.
At that time, not many people wore jeans, so she bought the fabric and had them made herself.
Good-looking clothes are expensive these days, ranging from tens to hundreds of dollars, none of them are cheap.
Cheap styles weren't very attractive, so she bought a second-hand sewing machine and some fabric to make clothes herself.
The styles are nice and the prices are low.
And you won't be wearing the same outfit as someone else.
Some wealthy women would even order custom-made clothes from her after seeing the styles she wore.
But she was busy with her wedding cake business and didn't have time to take on the job.
I only take on one order when I have free time to earn some extra money.
However, making clothes requires constantly looking down, which makes my shoulders and neck uncomfortable, so I didn't pursue it further.
She only makes herself a couple of outfits when she needs to dress presentably for business purposes; otherwise, she doesn't make them often.
Now she had changed into a white floral suit, wearing white floral closed-toe shoes that she had made herself, with a small bag slung over her wrist, carrying some high-end tasting samples, and called out to He Yushen.
"Let's go."
He Yushen saw that she had her hair tied in a high ponytail and was wearing the same headband, looking incredibly fashionable.
He was secretly delighted; such a fashionable girl was actually his wife. Who could be as beautiful as him?
But the thought of his beautiful wife going to someone else's house to discuss business made his face fall again.
He's afraid that if a rich man's son takes a fancy to his wife, he'll get extremely jealous.
Seeing his pouty lips, which could hold an oil bottle, Sheng Yueqing smiled and pinched his ear, "You stay home and do your chores well, then come pick me up on time, and I'll take you on a date."
He Yushen was already feeling aroused when she pinched his ear with her soft little hands.
When she mentioned going on a date, her face turned red.
He's become quite fashionable since coming to Shanghai; he knows that dating means being in a relationship.
Dating means finding a partner.
His wife is finally going to date him.
He Yushen felt increasingly pleased with himself. He had heard that being in a relationship meant the woman liked the man, so it seemed his future wife was starting to like him too.
He's so happy; he can't help humming a song while driving.
