Chapter 202 I got a dirty disease
When Xu Ruichen called Su Wan to tell her about this, she was eating watermelon in the store.
There were not many watermelons in early September, but she still bought a lot of them and put a lot of them in the store, planning to take a rest before returning to the army.
She had been dealing with sportswear issues during this period and was so busy that she had no time to look for Chen Yuan, so naturally she didn't go to the army.
Fortunately, her sportswear was a hot seller, and it was worth the two million she invested in the beginning to purchase the goods.
This batch of sportswear was produced very quickly. The factory could produce 600,000 pieces a day if they worked overtime. Otherwise, they would not be able to make so much money.
Because of this, the workers in the factory also made a lot of money, and the factory's profits also increased.
Mrs. Wei ate a piece of watermelon and smiled happily.
"Wanwan, I've paid off all my debts this time. I really want to thank you. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would have done."
"Sister-in-law Wei, this is all thanks to you. Our store's revenue has increased significantly recently, and you also thought about organizing promotions when I was away. I'm very happy to see your changes."
During this period, Mrs. Wei would buy balloons, blow them up the night before, and place them at the door. Children who bought children's clothes could get a balloon for free.
Of course, she was the one who paid for it.
After Su Wan knew about it, she gave her the money and told her that if she had such an idea, she could communicate with them and allocate funds for the event.
Mrs. Wei paid off the debt and now had more than a hundred yuan in savings in her hand. She felt much more confident.
Last time everyone received a bonus, and Xiaohua, who cooked, also received a bonus of 300 yuan. Her face was almost frozen from smiling.
She wanted to give the money to her elder sister to pay her back, but her elder sister refused. So she could only send two hundred yuan back to her mother so that they could buy meat. She said that she would send twenty yuan home every month to buy meat for them.
It’s not that Xiaohua is unwilling to send it all back, but because she has a brother at home, and her brother and sister-in-law were unwilling to pay for her father’s surgery last time. Although Xiaohua is young, children in rural areas are sensible early, and she knows that her brother and sister-in-law are both heartless.
She opened a passbook and kept the money, thinking that she could take it out when she was in trouble in the future.
She also realized that working with Sister Wanwan, even if she was just a cook, would be promising. After all, no one would be so generous as to give out a bonus of 300 yuan. That was 20 yuan more than her seven months' salary.
I heard from the employees in the store that there are red envelopes during festivals and holidays, and the bonuses at the end of the year are even more generous. She can earn 400 yuan for working ten months a year, which is not much worse than those girls who work in clerical positions in the village.
This place is close to Hong Kong Island, so when she has nothing to do, she would listen to the radio and learn foreign languages and high school knowledge, which helped her to figure out some things.
Mrs. Wei's tone became more sincere as she thought of the changes in the two sisters.
"A few days ago, Wei Ping's parents called me and asked me to take the child back to my hometown for the summer vacation. I refused, and they got angry, saying that I was learning bad things outside. I didn't even want to argue with them."
"Whatever they want to say is their business, Sister Wei, just live your life well now."
Su Wan also vaguely knew that Sister Qiu had been secretly talking about Sister Wei's matter in front of the political commissar during this period, deliberately keeping Wei Ping busy and preventing him from leaving his post. He also had no way to go out of the army to cause trouble for Sister Wei.
Although she did persuade Mrs. Wei not to divorce, she also made efforts for this matter.
Thinking about it now, Su Wan also felt that Mrs. Qiu's life was really not easy.
At that time, she was indeed thinking about this matter with the thinking of later generations. After all, divorce is not uncommon in the 21st century, but this was the 1980s, and Mrs. Wei was in a military marriage, and there were many things that were beyond her control.
Sister Wei seemed to know what Su Wan was thinking and smiled, "Don't worry, I've let it go now. Whatever happens to Wei Ping's family is their business. There's no way I'm going back to the army. I've brought the child here. A while ago, as you suggested, I sent him to the Children's Palace to learn painting. Every day is so fulfilling."
"Just be optimistic, sister-in-law. Your life will get better and better in the future."
Su Wan said, patting her clothes, "I have to go back to the army. Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. We need to see if we can ask for leave to go back."
"Is Mid-Autumn Festival coming soon?"
In previous years, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mrs. Wei would prepare mooncakes at home and find someone to make new clothes for her children early in the morning.
Although she is not that rich now, she can still buy a set of similar clothes for her child without having to make everything herself.
The most important thing is that she can make money now. She has become more confident and doesn't need to care about whether others are happy or not.
Su Wan bought some meat, exchanged food coupons for some rice and flour, bought some snacks and fruits, and then drove back to the army.
She hadn't been back to the army for a while. When the sentry saw her, he excitedly shouted, "Sister-in-law is back."
"Um."
Su Wan smiled happily and drove back to the compound.
The compound is no longer as lively as before. No one knows if something happened during this period, but the doors of every household are closed.
After parking the car, Su Wan took the things back home.
After she had packed up, she went to Mrs. Qiu's house and knocked on the door.
Hearing someone knocking on the door, Mrs. Qiu opened it and was obviously stunned when she saw it was Su Wan.
"Xiao Su is back!"
"sister in law."
Su Wan called out, and Mrs. Qiu pulled her inside, "Come in and talk first!"
"OK."
After closing the door, Su Wan looked at Mrs. Qiu's mysterious expression and asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, why do I see everyone's door is closed? Have they all gone back to the countryside and haven't come yet?"
Every winter and summer vacation in the family compound is the peak period for the sisters-in-law to bring their children home.
But it's already early September and school has started. My sisters-in-law shouldn't still be staying in the countryside, right?
Mrs. Qiu sighed and said, "Who would dare to open the door now?"
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean?" Su Wan asked in confusion.
"Wang Mei has a heart disease..."
When Aunt Qiu said this, there was still some anger in her eyes, "I don't know what's wrong with her. She knew she had an infectious disease but she didn't tell me. When we were drying clothes, her clothes were hung out with ours.
The most infuriating thing is that she deliberately washed clothes next to ours. Luckily, our clothes are usually exposed to the sun, but your sister-in-law Wu was unlucky. Her clothes were stuck to hers, and somehow she got infected."
"Deputy Captain Wu almost thought she was having an affair. The couple even had a fight late at night. They finally pulled everyone together for a confrontation and realized she might have been infected. When they went for a checkup, they found she had an internal organ disease. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, but the damage was already done. The treatment and medication alone cost two or three hundred yuan."
