Chapter 31 Is the girl naive or carefree?
As soon as Luo Xiaojuan finished the exam, she went up to Du Ruoxia with a worried look on her face. "Ugh, these questions were so hard. I don't know who came up with them. They were so weird."
Du Ruoxia: "It's alright."
Luo Xiaojuan sighed and said, "I still need to learn from you, Xiaxia. You have such a good attitude, and you are really amazing."
At this point, Du Ruoxia knew that saying anything more would sound like she was showing off, so she simply stopped talking about herself and instead comforted Luo Xiaojuan: "Don't worry, there's always a way. There's still the interview to go."
The exam papers were graded on-site, but the results would be available later.
The first step is the interview.
Those taking the exam lined up in the corridor. When their names were called, they pushed open the door and went inside.
Outsiders couldn't hear what she and the examiner said privately in the small room.
Therefore, every time a girl came out, people outside would bombard her with questions.
According to the order in which the written test papers were submitted, Du Ruoxia was the first to enter.
She went inside, where five examiners were sitting. She answered all the questions related to her professional knowledge fluently, and her confident and poised demeanor was particularly endearing.
The exam papers are graded on the spot, and the final interview score will be available by this evening.
It wouldn't be worth it for them to go back now, so Du Ruoxia and Luo Xiaojuan decided to browse around the jade market. She had heard that there was a department store in the jade market, which had a much wider selection than the supply and marketing cooperative.
So the two of them went to the department store.
Standing downstairs, Luo Xiaojuan looked up at the magnificent and towering building and exclaimed enviously, "Yu City actually has such a big department store."
Du Ruoxia asked, "Isn't your family from Kyoto?"
"No." Luo Xiaojuan shook her head and said, "I'm from a small county town, which is far from the capital."
"Let's go!" Du Ruoxia suddenly felt interested in spending money, took the lead and walked ahead, waving her hand and saying, "Today, it's on me."
Luo Xiaojuan had never been to such a high-class place before, and was initially a little hesitant. But seeing Du Ruoxia walking so fast, she had no choice but to hurry after her.
This department store has five floors in total, and at first glance, it has all kinds of goods.
Some counters selling products such as televisions are even equipped with iron railings, seemingly to prevent customers from rushing forward and grabbing them in a frenzy.
They arrived in the afternoon, probably because it was the weekend. The mall wasn't crowded at that time, but it was still packed with people.
Every floor was brightly lit, and people were constantly going up and down the stairs.
Seeing so many fluorescent tubes still lit in broad daylight, Luo Xiaojuan, remembering that her family used to use kerosene lamps, couldn't help but think, "This is such a waste! How much electricity will it cost to keep them lit all day?"
Du Ruoxia thought she was really cute, put her arm around her shoulder and laughed, "Anyway, you don't have to pay the electricity bill."
The first floor mainly sells large items such as appliances and furniture.
Du Ruoxia and Luo Xiaojuan strolled around for a while and were about to go upstairs when they saw a bicycle and were immediately tempted.
Although she didn't have a bicycle ticket, that didn't stop her from going to take a look.
She immediately pulled Luo Xiaojuan over, pointed to the only Phoenix brand women's 38 bicycle by the counter, and asked, "Hello, how much is this bicycle?"
"Isn't it written up there? One hundred and fifty yuan. Don't you have eyes?" The saleswoman said coldly, arms crossed, looking indifferent.
Du Ruoxia was very displeased and stared at her, saying, "What kind of attitude is this?"
Luo Xiaojuan tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "Sister Xiaxia, this is basically the attitude of all sales clerks these days..."
You have to beg someone to buy things.
"Don't interrupt." Du Ruoxia rolled up her sleeves, ready to step forward and argue with the saleswoman.
Although she looks like a delicate and soft girl, she is actually very strong-willed and doesn't like to be taken advantage of.
The saleswoman looked her up and down and Luo Xiaojuan next to her.
Judging from Du Ruoxia's clothes and the watch on her wrist, she seemed to come from a well-off family. But Luo Xiaojuan next to her was dressed much more shabbily.
Plus, Du Ruoxia is beautiful... she might be the kind of bad woman who hooks up with a rich guy to promote her relatives in the countryside.
She'd seen plenty of women like that in department stores.
The saleswoman snorted and said coldly, "You think you can afford a bicycle? Can you even come up with 150 yuan?"
"Who do you think you are!" Du Ruoxia immediately took out 150 yuan from her pocket and slammed it on the table.
Before she went to the countryside, she had emptied the Du family's coffers, and now she has quite a bit of money in her pocket.
The saleswoman remained sarcastic: "So what if you can afford it? We still don't know where your money comes from."
After saying that, he turned around, straightened his hair in front of the mirror, and said lazily:
"If you want to buy a bicycle, come early. People line up early in the morning and they're all gone. This is the last sample, it's not for sale."
Du Ruoxia was speechless. She immediately took the money back, glanced at her, and said, "Where is your leader? Next time, send a complaint letter to the email address. What kind of attitude is this?"
"You!" The saleswoman was now angry too, grabbing the counter and saying, "Go ahead and report me! Anyway, my family has connections, this is a secure job, you can't make me quit. But we're the only place in the whole city that sells bicycles, you just wait and see if I'll sell to you next time..."
The argument between the two quickly attracted the attention of passersby.
Immediately, many people stopped and pointed at them.
Du Ruoxia: "..."
Is this girl too naive or just carefree?
Where can you find someone who relies on connections and then boasts about it to the point that everyone knows it?
As Zhao Jiajun passed by the crowd, he heard the commotion and instinctively glanced in this direction.
When he first saw Du Ruoxia, he thought he had mistaken her for someone else.
After repeatedly confirming that it was her, he hurriedly pushed through the crowd and went over.
"Sister-in-law, what happened?"
Du Ruoxia looked up and saw him, a little surprised. After regaining her senses, she pointed at the saleswoman and said, "It's nothing, I just had a little argument with the shop assistant here. At first, she questioned whether I had enough money to buy a bicycle. When I took out the money, she said that my money was of dubious origin and that she wouldn't sell the bicycle. She was just joking."
Zhao Jiajun's expression also turned sour upon hearing this.
The saleswoman visibly panicked when she saw him in military uniform, but she still tried to sound tough, saying, "Don't think you can do anything just because you brought in a soldier as reinforcements. My uncle is the manager of this department store!"
"Liu Meimei, right?" Zhao Jiajun looked at the name tag on her chest and said, "I think it's necessary to correct your incorrect thinking. Just like the great Chairman said, we must sweep away all harmful insects and be invincible!"
"Who are you?" Liu Meimei asked, looking slightly guilty.
“Me? We are all people who serve the people.” Zhao Jiajun turned to Du Ruoxia and put on a smiling face, saying gently, “Sister-in-law, wait for me here. Don’t worry, I will definitely help you solve this matter today.”
Du Ruoxia immediately replied politely, "Then I'll trouble you."
Zhao Jiajun rolled up his sleeves, ready to continue arguing with the saleswoman, when Luo Xiaojuan asked, "Xiaxia, who is that man?"
Du Ruoxia: "Yang Zeyan's comrade-in-arms."
Luo Xiaojuan whispered, "He looks pretty handsome..."
