"This year, our country has encountered many things, which has made other countries eager to test us again. The leader's intention is to use this military parade to show other countries that we are not easy to bully."
After hearing what her grandfather said, Ruan Ruan understood.
The military parade is secondary; the most important thing is to show them that today's China is a completely new China, not the one before. If they want to fight, we can fight them to the end.
Coincidentally, the opening ceremony of the garment factory was originally scheduled for National Day. At the banquet, she brought Zheng Xuyang and Huo Haoshen along, and had her two sisters-in-law attend as their female companions, wearing horse-face skirts, so that the garments would first become popular in China and then open up the international market.
"Okay, so what should I do then?" Being able to participate in the military parade would be a perfect moment in Ruan Ruan's life.
"The leader's bodyguards will come to take you there on that day, so don't worry." They didn't know Ruan Ruan's exact location; the leader only told them that someone would be sent to pick her up.
That's fine then. She'll just do whatever the leader tells her to do.

"Your grandfather just said you've been drawing clothing design sketches lately. Would it be convenient for us to take a look?" For decades, they've worn either military uniforms or Zhongshan suits.

Seeing that her grandfather and the others wanted to see the clothes she designed, Ruan Ruan turned around and handed them a stack of papers on her desk.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, these clothes are all designed based on the ethnic characteristics of our country, and they also include some traditional Hanfu (traditional Han Chinese clothing) with a horse-face skirt. I plan to showcase these clothes at this Beijing Trade Fair. What do you think?"
If things were as they were last year, Ruan Ruan wouldn't have dared to be so bold in her clothing designs. But now that the leaders want to reform, she's not afraid to fire the first shot. She wants to see what kind of reaction her clothes will generate.
