After Wang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni went to the city library, they went to the bookstore and inevitably went shopping.
I also happened to encounter a clothing store opening.
There were loud noises of firecrackers, gongs and drums, and people were dancing dragons and lions. It was so lively.
"Wow……"
Xu Yanni jumped up happily and clapped, then followed the crowd into the store.
The walls were covered in clothes, and then there were rows of display racks filled with clothes, with men's and women's clothing separated on the left and right.
To be honest, the style is average.
The scene was extremely lively, but everyone was just watching and asking questions.
However, this boss is also a pioneer and must have his own business acumen. He selected one person to sell the product and used his eloquence to close the first order.
Breaking the zero egg was like opening the floodgates of a reservoir, and several more people started to empty their wallets.
Wang Zhaozhao was just there to join in the fun and had no plans to buy anything. However, Xu Yanni took a fancy to a white shirt and wanted to persuade her to buy the same one.
She shook her head and refused to buy it.
She was generous with her money, but she would only buy things she thought were necessary, like a white shirt, which was totally unnecessary. Her fourth aunt had a sewing machine and was very good at making clothes, so if she really wanted one, she didn't have to buy it.
"If I buy some cloth and ask Fourth Aunt to make it, it will not only be cost-effective, but it might also look better than this."
“…”
Xu Yanni pouted, "I really envy you, ah...it would be great if your grandmother Qiao could also open a clothing store."
Qiao Li is a substitute teacher. How can she make clothes and earn processing fees?
She wanted the same set as Wang Zhaozhao twice, and both times she asked Grandma Qiao to make it, but in fact the first set was made by Qiao Li.
However, after hearing what she said, Wang Zhaozhao remembered that her fourth uncle had mentioned before the New Year that it was possible to open a tailor shop.
I was really busy with my studies this year and didn’t pay much attention to other things.
I wonder if it's being worked on?
Wang Zhaozhao suddenly had many doubts. Did her fourth uncle still have a side hustle? He should have, right? At least the money to buy that house was mostly earned from his side hustle. How could he be so foolish as to give it up?
So, what about Uncle Luo Fugui? I haven't seen him since.
"Zhao Zhao, Zhao Zhao..." Xu Yanni pushed Wang Zhaozhao. Why did he suddenly become dazed?
"Hmm?" Wang Zhaozhao came back to his senses and gave her a small smile. "Do you want to buy this dress? If not, let's go."
Xu Yanni hesitated for a moment and put down the clothes in her hand.
After leaving the clothing store, they strolled along the street.
"The city is indeed much bigger than our county town. It's a pity that we didn't get to go shopping when we went to the provincial capital. I heard from a friend of my mother that a clothing market opened there this year, and it's full of clothes..."
Xu Yanni is a studious person. As a girl, she also loves beauty and buying new clothes, and her family conditions allow it.
Wang Zhaozhao saw her regretful expression and said jokingly, "If we both make the list, I'll accompany you to the clothing market next time we go."
Well.
Xu Yanni did not jump up happily as usual, but instead wilted all of a sudden.
Let’s not talk about that competition exam. We are still good sisters.
"How much confidence do you have?" she asked Wang Zhaozhao.
"Sixty percent?" Wang Zhaozhao seemed to be answering and asking, but the person he was asking was not Xu Yanni, but God.
"Huh?" Xu Yanni's eyes widened. "Are you so unconfident?"
ah?
Wang Zhaozhao also widened her eyes. She felt that she was being too blindly confident.
When Xu Yanni saw her expression, she felt sick.
"It's over, it's over. I'm going to do really badly on the test this time. I'm starting to get overconfident, thinking I should be on the list..."
Ahhhhhh…
If she hadn't remembered that this was on the street, she would have held her head and screamed.
"Well." Seeing that she was on the verge of collapse and wanted to scream madly, Wang Zhaozhao weakly poked her shoulder.
"What's wrong?" Xu Yanni sounded pitiful, her voice almost tearful.
"The confidence you're asking about...isn't it about being at the top of the list?"
Huh?
Xu Yanni's expression was cracked as if she was about to cry.
She swallowed hard and looked at Wang Zhaozhao suspiciously, as if she wanted to speak, but the corners of her mouth twitched and she couldn't speak.
Wang Zhaozhao took the initiative to explain, "After all, I've been ranked first all the way up. You asked me if I have confidence, and this is what I thought of."
“Ahhhhh…”
Xu Yanni couldn't help herself and screamed like a groundhog in the street.
Wang Zhaozhao, whose arms were grabbed by her and shaken vigorously, said: “……!”
It’s okay, it’s okay. She doesn’t live in the city anyway, so there won’t be any familiar faces on the street. It’s just that strangers will look at her a few more times. She can handle it.
"Eh? Little girls, is that you guys?"
Suddenly, a voice came from their side.
Xu Yanni's scream stopped abruptly. She first glanced at Wang Zhaozhao, and then the two of them turned their heads to look at the person who appeared beside them.
Oh no.
I actually ran into a familiar face.
Not familiar, but I have seen it.
Last time at the city library, Wang Zhaozhao and several of his classmates came together. After borrowing books, they came out and waited for others. At that time, Wang Zhaozhao met an older sister and chatted with her for a while.
"Hehe, hello."
He laughed awkwardly twice and said hello with his head down.
Xu Yanni laughed along and bowed.
"Hello, nice to see you again." The older sister smiled and nodded. She looked at them and asked, "Are you here to borrow books again?"
"Yes."
"Have you borrowed it?"
"Yes."
It's such an awkward chat.
The older woman didn't look embarrassed at all, and seemed quite interested in chatting. "The city is holding an essay competition this time. Did you guys know about that?"
Wang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni nodded in unison. Xu Yanni asked, "Auntie, you are..."
Teacher? Principal? Looks more like a principal.
"I'm in education, so I know about the essay competition." The older sister said with a smile.
oh……
It didn't say whether he was a teacher or something else.
However, this old lady really has the temperament of an experienced worker. Wang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni always feel that she has an "official" ring on her head.
"Will you participate?" the elder sister asked again.
Huang Zhaozhao and Xu Yanni looked at each other and laughed dryly. "We have to take the school test first and get a place in the competition."
Although, it is better to be safe than sorry, so it is better not to be too confident.
Hearing this, the older sister looked a little surprised. "Oh? Your school uses a test to select students to participate in the competition? Don't teachers nominate the candidates they think are suitable?"
"No, we announced it publicly. Students who want to participate can sign up, take the test, and then the selection will be decided."
The older sister pondered and nodded, "But writing an essay isn't like doing math. There's no fixed standard answer, so it's up to the teacher or the school to decide."
“The same goes for competition.”
“…That’s true.”
“…”
