When they returned to the house, they found their mother sitting upright on the bed, reading the only book left. The cover was gone, and the pages were yellowed. It was unclear how long she had been flipping through them. Zhou Bingxuan couldn't help but feel melancholy. He decided to work hard and give his mother the life she longed for. Seeing this, he felt guilty for his slight dissatisfaction with his mother.
He must work hard and let his mother maintain her usual attitude, just like his sister did. It was then that he understood his sister. She had always devoted herself to the family without complaint, even before she was sold to the old widower. That was her devotion to her family, her love for her family.
Zhou Bingxuan walked over to his mother and sat down. "Mom, I can make money now. When I make a lot of money, I will buy you a lot of books that you like to read."
"You are still a student. Don't forget that the most important thing for you is to study." A gentle smile appeared on my mother's face.
"Don't worry about this. I, your son, am very smart. Mom, you forgot that I am the top student in the whole grade." Zhou Bingxuan said proudly.
"Yes, yes, my son is the best. But don't be influenced by your classmate. Making money is making money, and we can't learn those messy things." Mother Zhou seemed to remember something and instructed her son.
Zhou Bingxuan realized that his mother had misunderstood Yu Zihan, and he quickly said, "My classmate is very good in all aspects. She is one year younger than me and is also the top student in the grade."
"Mom is not targeting her. I'm just reminding you what is most important." Mother Zhou didn't expect her son's Bronzebeard to be so outstanding, but she would not admit it.
"Mom, let's get down to business. Just agree to let my sister go to work with me. Think about it, my sister is getting older. If you keep her at home, aren't you afraid that I, your beautiful daughter, will become an old maid who can't get married?
My sister gave up a lot to take care of you and me. Now that you're well and can take care of yourself, let my sister pursue her own happiness. " Zhou Yiran hid behind the curtain, listening to her brother's words, her face was already in tears. Although she did all this voluntarily, being recognized by others is also a kind of happiness.
"Yes, it's all because of me that your sister became like this. I agree that she can go out and pursue her own life, but I also don't want her to sell clothes or set up a stall on the street. I think it's acceptable for a boy like you, but your sister is a girl, and I still don't agree with her showing up in public." Mother Zhou expressed her concerns and then looked at her son.
"Mom, what era is it now? You are still looking at things with your old ideas. Think about it, we are living like this now, and you are still sticking to your old ideas. Let's solve the problem of survival first and then pursue other things." Zhou Bingxuan tried to use euphemisms to explain that it was difficult for his mother but it was the fact.
The mother was silent for a long time, so long that Zhou Bingxuan was about to give up trying to persuade her. Then she nodded.
"Okay, Mom agrees. Yiran, come here." Mother Zhou knew that her daughter was eavesdropping, so she simply called her daughter to her side: "Yiran, Mom agrees that you go buy clothes, but don't do anything messy. We are just going to sell clothes." Zhou Yiran looked at her mother and nodded vigorously. She was different from her brother. She understood her mother very well. Her mother used to be so proud, but her pride was shattered by misfortune and poverty.
"Mom, I know. I'm just going to work. I won't do anything else." Zhou Yiran had tears on her face, but her tone was cheerful.
The next day, Zhou Bingxuan took his sister to Yu Zihan's house early.
When Yu Zihan saw Zhou Yiran, she greeted her with a smile, "Sister Yiran, I'm glad you can come to help us. I'll pay you the same as them, one hundred yuan a day."
"Ah? So many. Too many." Zhou Yiran looked at his brother.
"Sister, as long as you work hard and achieve results, that will be the best reward for Zi Han." Zhou Bingxuan knew that Yu Zi Han's decision was not easy to change, so only by working hard could she be worthy of such a high salary.
"Okay, I will do my best." Zhou Yiran said.
"Sister Yiran, nice to meet you. My name is Pei Shuyan and she is my cousin. We will work together from now on." With Pei Shuyan as the happy pill, Zhou Yiran was also moved to reveal her lively nature.
"Sister Yiran, please change into this set of clothes." Yu Zihan looked at Zhou Yiran and then matched a set of clothes and handed it to Zhou Yiran.
"For me to wear? I can't have it." Zhou Yinran refused.
"Sister, you misunderstood. This is not for you. You are asked to wear it as a model and use it for display. They will also wear our clothes for display." Zhou Bingxuan explained to his sister.
"Sister Yiran, I'll take you to my room to change clothes." Pei Shuyan liked Zhou Yiran very much, and she quickly became familiar with her.
They set up their stall at the same old place today.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived, they saw a lot of people waiting there. These people were introduced by yesterday's old customers, and some came to take a look yesterday but had not made up their minds yet.
What they saw were three young and beautiful girls. The moment they saw them, those who were still hesitating quickly made up their minds.
"Wait a moment, we'll hang up all the samples and then get the goods for everyone." Yu Zihan said to everyone with a smile.
Then several people skillfully supported the racks and hung clothes.
Zhou Yiran watched at the beginning, and soon she was able to operate it very skillfully. She was an accustomed person, so she could learn these things at a glance, and her performance was no worse than that of Yu Zihan and her sister.
As soon as the stall was set up, people eagerly ordered goods. Yu Zihan ordered the right sizes for the customers according to their requirements. Zhou Yiran silently memorized Yu Zihan's every move.
I have to say that Zhou Yiran is really talented in this regard. She is very good at matching clothes for customers. She can match a complete set of clothes that satisfies the customers according to their skin color and age.
With Zhou Yiran joining, the goods they brought today were sold out at around four o'clock. You should know that they bought one-third more goods today than yesterday.
After returning to Yu Zihan's house, the most exciting moment of counting money began again.
Thanks to the efforts of the money-loving Pei Shuyan, their sales for the day were soon released, totaling 3,100 yuan.
Zhou Yiran looked at the few people and found it hard to accept that they had sold a dead person for more than three thousand yuan in just one day.
"Sister, you believe it now, the clothing business has great potential if done well." Zhou Bingxuan said to his sister.
Zhou Bingxuan's words brought Zhou Yiran, who was daydreaming, back to reality.
"Yes, you must have confidence. I found that Sister Yiran is very talented in this area. I plan to open a few boutique women's clothing stores in the capital after the New Year, and Sister Yiran will be responsible for the management and operation. It will definitely be popular." Yu Zihan observed Zhou Yiran carefully today. She thought of her previous life. In the 1980s and 1990s, the boutique clothing stores business was very hot and the profits were considerable.
