Wu Meili's unrealistic fantasy was ultimately shattered by Qiao Baozhu herself.
"Sister Wu, this is an urgent order for the New Year. If you delay any longer, you won't be able to finish the work."
Wu Meili was stunned and turned to look at Qiao Baozhu in confusion.
"What is a New Year's rush order? Sister Baozhu, you are amazing. You know a lot of new words that I don't understand."
Wu Meili was full of admiration.
"Is it something that is only sold during the Chinese New Year? Like Spring Festival couplets, blessing characters, and door stickers?"
Ji Hehua analyzed it carefully, then looked up at Qiao Baozhu with wide eyes and anticipation.
Qiao Baozhu nodded: "That's right! It's Chinese New Year, even if you don't have money to buy your child new clothes, you should buy a hairband. Families that can afford it will buy a toy or something for their child. During Chinese New Year, we always have to visit relatives and friends, and it won't look good if the child doesn't have something new."
Since ancient times, children's money is the easiest to earn.
Before marriage, you earn your own money and spend it yourself, no matter how stingy you are, you will not lose yourself. After having children, you would rather not eat or drink to save money for your children.
If you don’t believe it, just take a look in every family’s wardrobe. The number of new clothes for adults is getting fewer and fewer every year, while the number of new clothes for children is getting more and more every year.
The few good clothes many lesbians have were bought before they had children or even before they got married.
Even in this age of material scarcity, the toys that children have at home, whether they are bought or made by themselves, are much more numerous than their mothers’ skin care products.
Sun Jigang brought back several new things from the provincial capital, and Qiao Baozhu finally chose these two because they could attract the children's attention.
On New Year's Day, Qiao Baozhu organized a team-building activity and invited several employees from the store to eat hotpot.
Eating hot pot is nothing new in the Great Northern Wilderness. Eating hot pot in copper pots has been practiced in North China and Northeast China for hundreds of years.
She asked Qu Yang and others to invite their family members to go to the restaurant to eat and have fun together.
Ge Qiuhua and Zheng Zhaohong called their children over, and Qu Yang and Han Meijuan, who were not married, also called their nephews and nieces.
Originally, Qiao Baozhu wanted everyone to relax, but unexpectedly, everyone had to serve several children meals together.
The children had fun playing and eating happily, and ran away as soon as they were full. When the adults talked about their parents, they unconsciously turned the topic to the children.
After drinking some wine, Ge Qiuhua relaxed a bit and spoke of his children with a mixture of worry and satisfaction.
The others were similar. The unmarried Qu Yang, under the influence of alcohol, fantasized about how he would raise children after he got married in the future.
Qiao Baozhu planned at that time that after the Chinese New Year, she would prepare a piece of children's clothing.
Unexpectedly, before the design of children's clothing even started, Sun Jigang brought several small gadgets.
Qiao Baozhu firmly believes that these two inconspicuous small accessories, headbands and lucky bags, will definitely sell out.
"Baozhu is right. This lucky bag is obviously something sold during the Chinese New Year. I have seen it at the market in previous years, but it was filled with spices. It smells good when you hang it on your body, but you can't put anything in it."
Gao Liman was not interested in the lucky bags. She picked up the headband and looked at it carefully. "I like this headband better. The flower made of red yarn looks real. I want to make a few more and give them to my brother and sister's children during the Chinese New Year."
Qiao Baozhu stared at the three people and carefully learned the two crafts.
The four people were divided into two groups. Gao Liman and Ji Hehua went to the villages to promote the product, while Qiao Baozhu and Wu Meili went back to the family compound to distribute it door to door.
"Whether we can finish these crafts or not, we will meet in the cafeteria at 12 noon."
After Qiao Baozhu finished speaking, the four of them each carried a large bag of handmade materials and went to work separately.
