While Lu Li was loading the goods for her, he joked, "Sister, you are willing to give it up. Does your brother-in-law trust you so much? If you pay for all this, his parents will definitely come after you. How will you be able to live like this in the future?"
Lu Shengnan patted him twice and said unhappily, "Are you still my brother? Why don't you expect me to order something good? This time, I sold the goods smoothly and made a lot of money. I will buy two cans of milk powder for my son. He likes it very much.
But my family can't afford it, we can't even afford eggs, and you, as my uncle, don't even offer me some support. What? Have you forgotten me, your sister, because you're living a better life?
Don't forget, who was it that raised you when your parents were busy with work? You are such an ungrateful boy. Xiaoyan is your sister-in-law, and I am not your sister?
Look at how you are partial to one and neglect the other. After all, I am not your God of Wealth! The real disappointment is not to make a fuss. "
Seeing her sighing, Lu Li's mouth twitched and he surrendered, "Sister, I was wrong, but you didn't lose anything. Don't you know all the ones near your home? Catch a few of them. Are you afraid that you can't sell them?
If you are afraid of running into acquaintances, then go farther away. There are many factories in the county town, so go around the staff quarters."
Lu Shengnan glanced at him and said, "You don't need me to tell you. I'm here to make money. I'm so excited to hear what you guys say. If I don't come, I won't be able to sleep at night. If you guys make money, I won't be able to sleep even more."
Her own poverty was certainly painful, but her brother's wealth still stabbed her in the heart.
Forget it, just go for it. I'll just go with the bullet and fight her mother. At worst, in eighteen years, I'll be a brave man again.
No one in her Lu family is a coward.
If Chen Guozhi didn't have a stable job, she would have wanted to drag him here. He is tall and strong, just right for carrying things for her!
She looked at the simple Plum brand ladies' watch with a pink strap, which cost 120 yuan each. She took two and the total price dropped to 240 yuan.
I used the remaining money to buy 20 kilograms of pork fat, 20 kilograms of eggs, and about 20 feet of floral fabric, and that was almost all I had.
Lu Shengnan was still sighing, "Why is this money so wasted? I didn't buy much."
The main reason was that Jiang Yan had too much cargo piled up, so the things in her backpack looked pitifully small.
How much money can I make if I sell all of these?
Seeing how familiar her mother and Lu Li seemed, it was obviously not their first time doing this. Could it be that they went to the island to also be involved in the black market?
She saw that Miao Xiuying was glowing with golden light.
Her mother, who kept saying she was poor, was actually the richest in the family. She leaned over and asked, "Mom, how much have you earned in these years? Please tell me the truth. I'm not after your little money, I just want to know how rich my mother is.
No wonder you speak so confidently, it seems you have made a lot of money, my dear, you are my role model. "
Miao Xiuying was overjoyed by what she said, and said modestly: "I don't make much, just enough to live on. Food and clothing are free at home, don't think I'm too rich.
If you want to eat well and wear good clothes, go and get them yourself. Don’t try to get them from me. I’m already in my 50s or 60s. I only have a few days left to live. I’m just waiting to enjoy your blessings!”
Lu Shengnan rolled her eyes at her and said, "Why are you talking about this and that? Are you afraid that I will lend you money?"
Miao Xiuying smiled and said, "If you want to borrow, I don't have any. Most of it is in the bank. It's not safe to keep it with me.
If someone with ulterior motives were to target me, stab me twice, cut off my arms and legs, and then steal my money, it would be a loss, so I’d better put it in the bank, where it’s safe.”
In the past, she sewed a small pocket on her underwear and put her money in the pocket so that it would not be easily robbed and she would be safe wherever she went.
But Jiang Yan popularized it to her, and after thinking about it, it did make sense.
It is difficult to prevent thieves no matter how hard you try. It is better to put it in a bank.
Currently, most people are unwilling to deposit money in the bank, always thinking that the money in their hands is theirs.
Holding hundreds or thousands of dollars, I feel so happy and have the energy to do anything.
Lu Shengnan was quite surprised. Her mother was such a miser, how could she be willing to put the money in the bank?
Following Jiang Yan for these years, she has changed a lot. She put her arm around Miao Xiuying's shoulders and said, "Mom, you are right. Don't keep the money at home. There are more and more petty thefts now. It's okay if you hide it well, but it will be stolen.
Even if the police come, how can they check? Where can they check? I have to bear the loss myself. The bank will not run away. It is run by the state. I always advise my parents-in-law to deposit their money in the bank.
The low interest rate is another matter, but at least it's safe. Several houses in our yard have been robbed as the year draws to a close. There are so many thieves that there are signs that the door lock of my house has been pried open.
I took away everything that was left at home. As for my husband, he supports all my decisions and is very obedient now. It was all because of my mother that I was encouraged. I also want to make a career!"
Miao Xiuying snorted, "If I had realized this a few years ago, I would have passed the exam and got a stable job. Why do I have to stay at home and take care of the business? Now, get back to work."
Miao Xiuying had a lot of goods, so she used a cart to pull them. Everyone else had black lines on their faces. It was different after all because they had money!
Lu Lin followed behind Miao Xiuying like a frightened bird, looking around, fearing that the Little Red Guards would rush over and take him away.
Miao Xiuying sneered: "Why are you acting like a quail? Come with me. When the goods are sold out, I will take you to a restaurant."
Lu Lin quickly followed and he also took goods worth about three hundred yuan, which was all their savings.
There are three children in the family. If he and his wife didn't have jobs, how could they save money?
If he really runs out of money, he won't be able to ask the elders for help. Not only does he not show filial piety, but he also wants to take their pension money. Wouldn't God strike him with lightning?
It was the first time for several people to do it, so they were a little nervous, but Miao Xiuying did not put any pressure on them.
We took the goods to the textile factory, where most of the workers were women.
Miao Xiuying saw the workers getting off work and walked over. The few people didn't hear what she said.
I saw her coming over with a few little girls. She took out the floral fabric and the girls' eyes lit up when they saw it.
"I want this piece of crushed flower. How much is it? My mother can make clothes. Let her make it for me and keep it for the summer.
The department stores only sell the styles from a few years ago, and they don’t even buy new ones. I’m already so out of style. If I had a nice dress, I’d be able to find a good match with my in-laws.”
She wants floral prints, while others want green or red floral prints. These fabrics look great no matter how they are made.
About three feet of cloth can make a skirt, but when they heard that one foot of cloth requires thirteen pieces, several people obviously hesitated.
This is enough for their monthly salary.
Miao Xiuying used her eloquence again, "Little comrade, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child. Men, who doesn't like good-looking girls?
You have fair skin, pink suits you, and you dress well. How can a blind date fail? If a man doesn’t chase you, it’s because he has no taste. "
