In fact, not wanting to separate from Gu Ye was only one of the reasons. Jiang Yue also considered that once she went to college, she would have a lot of schoolwork and would have no time to research and investigate the market.
Besides, Jiang Yue had read enough books from kindergarten to graduate school in her previous life. She didn't want to go back to school just after arriving here and barely catching her breath.
Of course, she had to go to college. A college diploma was very valuable in this day and age, but Jiang Yue wanted to do what she wanted to do before going to college. She had to wait until her relationship with Gu Ye was stable and her career was on the rise before considering it.
"It's better to prepare for one more year so that you can get into a good university and bring honor to us military wives!" Xu Fen said with a smile.
"Okay!" Jiang Yue also smiled.
They chatted all the way and soon arrived at the county town. After parting with Xu Fen, Jiang Yue saw that it was still early and went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables first.
Jiang Yue bought some pork tenderloin today, planning to make meat pie soup. She also bought edamame, cabbage, river shrimp, peaches, apples, and bananas. The basket was full of vegetables and fruits, and all together they cost less than two dollars and fifty cents.
The Dragon Boat Festival is just a few days away. Some villagers are selling mugwort on the roadside, and you can smell the fragrance of the mugwort from a long distance away.
After buying the vegetables, Jiang Yue rode her bike to the supply and marketing cooperative. Suddenly, she heard someone calling her name.
"Jiang Yue!"
Jiang Yue stepped on the brake, put one foot on the ground, turned his head and saw a handsome and tall figure running towards him.
"He Jingxuan!" Jiang Yue didn't expect to meet He Jingxuan here so early in the morning.
"Are you here to buy groceries?" He Jingxuan saw a figure riding a bicycle passing by from afar. He just called out tentatively and it turned out to be Jiang Yue.
"Hello, brother!" Ningning greeted with a smile.
"Hello!" He Jingxuan touched Ningning's head and said with shame, "Just call me uncle!"
Before, He Jingxuan thought Ningning was Jiang Yue's sister, so when Ningning called him uncle, he corrected her and asked her to call him brother. Later, he found out that Jiang Yue and Ningning were not sisters, so it was naturally inappropriate to call him brother.
It was only in the past few days that He Jingxuan heard from his uncle, Director Shen, that the little girl was not the biological child of Gu Ye and Jiang Yue, but the orphan of a martyr and was adopted by Gu Ye.
Jiang Yue took good care of the child.
"Are you going to work? Isn't it too early?" Jiang Yue saw He Jingxuan wearing a vest and shorts with a book in his hand. He didn't look like he was dressed for work.
However, Jiang Yue discovered that He Jingxuan looked thin. He was only wearing a vest and his arms seemed to have muscles. He was not the skinny guy.
"I'm here for a run. It's still early for work." He Jingxuan said with a smile, "Are you going home?"
"No, I'm going to the supply and marketing cooperative." Although the blind date mistake has passed, Jiang Yue and He Jingxuan have agreed to be friends and neither of them will mention the incident, but when they met this time, Jiang Yue still felt a little awkward.
"What a coincidence, I'm also going to the supply and marketing cooperative. Let's go together!" He Jingxuan smiled.
The county town is not big, and they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative in a short while. On the way, they chatted for a while, but couldn't find a topic to talk about, which made them feel a little awkward.
"Then I'll go in, bye!" Jiang Yue parked the bicycle and was about to pick up Ningning, but saw that He Jingxuan had already picked Ningning up from the back seat.
"I don't have anything to do. It's still early for work, so I'll go in and take a look." Seeing that the basket of vegetables that Jiang Yue was carrying was very heavy, He Jingxuan reached out to take it.
Seeing He Jingxuan smiling so openly, Jiang Yue wondered if she was being a little too suspicious.
If she refused now, she would appear petty, so Jiang Yue said, "Then let's go together!"
The supply and marketing cooperative had just opened, and several salesmen were cleaning. A middle-aged man who was wiping the counter saw a man and a woman bringing a little girl in, and he snorted, "Why are you here so early? It's not open yet. Go buy something and wait outside!"
Jiang Yue: "I'm looking for Su Xin!"
When the middle-aged man heard that the person was looking for the director's daughter, he looked over and said, "Looking for Su Xin? She won't be back for work for a while!"
He looked Jiang Yue up and down, then looked at He Jingxuan beside him, "Are you Su Xin's friends?"
"I know him!" Jiang Yue didn't say much. This man was obviously a snob. When they first came in, the man looked down on her. But when he heard her say she was looking for Su Xin, his attitude immediately became much gentler.
"Let's wait outside." The door here had just opened, and it had been stuffy all night long, so the smell was bad and there was dust after cleaning. So Jiang Yue took Ningning's hand and walked outside.
"These people are like this, don't take it to heart." Seeing that Jiang Yue didn't say anything, He Jingxuan thought she was unhappy with the salesperson's attitude just now.
"I know." Jiang Yue smiled. "It's a state-owned enterprise, a stable job."
He Jingxuan raised his lips when he heard this and said calmly: "It's a stable job now, but it may not be in the future!"
Jiang Yue was shocked. He Jingxuan had even anticipated this!
This is indeed the case. With the development of the economy, this phenomenon of state-owned units monopolizing the market will be broken. Within ten years, the employees of state-owned enterprises who once had their noses high in the sky will begin to face the fate of being laid off, and their proud iron rice bowls will be shattered.
However, this is Jiang Yue's understanding of past history as a person from the future. It is surprising that He Jingxuan, who lives in this era, can have such awareness.
"What do you say?" Jiang Yue wanted to hear He Jingxuan's opinion.
However, she was afraid that what He Jingxuan said would be too shocking, especially when it came to the future fate of the sales clerks inside, so Jiang Yue cautiously signaled He Jingxuan to talk while walking, otherwise if the sales clerks heard them, they would definitely call them two lunatics.
"I don't think our country will remain closed like this forever. The authorities will definitely vigorously develop the economy. Once the economy develops, the current business model will be eliminated, and these employees will be the first to be eliminated!" He Jingxuan said in a deep voice.
