Chapter 397 Husband and wife gossip



"Okay, okay, you are right!" Commander Zheng said impatiently with a frown.

The political commissar shook his head. Having worked with Commander Zheng for so long, he was well aware of his violent temper. To deal with Commander Zheng, one had to go along with him and not confront him face to face.

At this time, Division Commander Zheng added, "Little Sister Zhu comes to see me every day. If I don't see her, she will wait for me downstairs of the division headquarters. Whenever she sees me, she will cry and make a sad face, as if I owe her money! Old Commander, help me think of a way to get rid of her. I am so fed up with her!"

The political commissar smiled and said, "It's very easy to get rid of Zhu Xiaomei. Didn't Gu Ye give you some advice?"

Commander Zheng raised his eyes and said, "How come I don't know what Gu Ye is suggesting? He has been talking for so long just to protect his young wife! Humph, a henpecked man!"

Think about it carefully!" The political commissar raised his eyebrows and ignored Commander Zheng's evaluation of Gu Ye.

Commander Zheng's thick eyebrows were about to get knotted. "It's so hard to talk to you intellectuals! Lao Si, you better tell me clearly!"

The political commissar whispered in Commander Zheng's ear, saying this and that, and Commander Zheng nodded repeatedly.

"You cultural people will do it!"

The weather has been cold recently, so the sales of bell-bottom pants are not as good as before, but the business of trendy clothing stores is still good overall.

There were no fleece pants in that era. In winter, some people would wear a pair of hand-knitted woolen pants inside and thick pants outside. They looked less bloated, but were relatively warm.

For those who are afraid of cold, they can just wear a pair of big cotton pants. They are warm but too bulky and not beautiful enough.

At this time, someone discovered that this clothing store in Qingshan County sold woolen trousers.

Speaking of woolen trousers, they are much more comfortable than knitted trousers. They are not as thick as wool and are woven tightly. They fit well when worn, keep warm well, are not airtight, and are not bulky.

Since the temperature dropped, the sales of woolen trousers have been increasing day by day.

A pair of bell-bottom jeans costs 30 yuan, and even with a discount it still costs more than 20 yuan. A pair of woolen trousers that can last through the winter also costs a little over 30 yuan. These days, Jiang Yue's store sells dozens of pairs of woolen trousers every day.

Jiang Yue arrived at the store late in the afternoon. As soon as she entered the store, she saw a lot of hangers on the counter. It seemed that the business was good during the time she was away in the afternoon.

"Sister Jiang Yue, you're here!" Yang Cuiling's face was full of joy. "Sister Jiang Yue, you're absolutely right. When the weather gets cold, there are so many people buying wool sweaters and wool pants!"

"Is anyone here to buy a ski suit?" Jiang Yue saw the mannequin changing into a new ski suit when she was outside the door.

"Yes, I was just about to tell you, Sister Jiang Yue, she came from the city specially to buy ski clothes!" Yang Cuiling said happily.

Since following Jiang Yue to sell clothes, Yang Cuiling has changed her introverted personality and now she can deal with customers with ease.

Moreover, she is a tailor herself. She had always seen Jiang Yue making clothes based on design drawings, and her aesthetic taste had also improved.

Under Jiang Yue's guidance, Yang Cuiling helps customers choose clothes by taking into account their preferences, skin color, and temperament, and every outfit she puts together always satisfies the customers.

Yang Cuiling liked this job very much and worked very hard. Jiang Yue paid her so much that her grandmother said she could save her salary as a dowry.

"From the city?" Jiang Yue raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

After she received the ski suits sent by Ajin, she distributed five pieces each to the branches in the provincial capital and the city. She thought that sending the goods by post was too slow, so she made an agreement with the minibus driver and the conductor, bought a freight ticket and asked the minibus to take the goods.

I didn't expect that in just three or four days, the five ski suits in the city branch were sold out. Customers actually went all the way to Qingshan County to buy them. I guess the situation in the provincial capital is similar.

On the other hand, in Qingshan County, four ski suits have been sold since the new ones came out. One of them was bought by a customer from the city today, and another was half bought and half snatched away by that female customer.

It gets dark early in winter. It’s just past five o’clock and it’s already dark.

Jiang Yue came late this afternoon. It was already past four o'clock when she arrived at the store. She even went out to pick up Ningning from the kindergarten. During this time, only a few customers came in, looked around, asked the price, and left.

After all, Qingshan County is just a small county with a smaller population than the city and provincial capital, and its purchasing power is relatively limited.

"Cui Ling, I'm going to the provincial capital tomorrow and won't be in the store!" Jiang Yue went to the warehouse to pack some clothes, preparing to take them to the provincial capital and the branch in the city tomorrow.

"By the way, Wang Yang will continue to send Hu Zi over these few nights!" Jiang Yue gave Aunt Yang and Yang Cuiling a few more instructions, and then looked at the progress of the down jacket that Aunt Yang was making for her.

At this time, the sound of a horn was heard outside the store. Jiang Yue pushed the door open and saw that it was Gu Ye driving a big jeep. Her eyebrows immediately curved up and her smile was sweet and bright.

"Why are you here!" Jiang Yue asked.

"I came home and saw you weren't there, so I came to check!" Gu Ye jumped out of the car and asked, "Are you going to take these two bags with you?"

"Yes!" Jiang Yue had originally planned to take the two large bags of clothes with her when she passed through the county town when she left tomorrow morning. Now that Gu Ye is here, it would save her the trouble and she could just pack the clothes and wouldn't have to come over tomorrow.

Gu Ye picked up two large bags, one in each hand, stuffed them into the back seat of the jeep, and then picked up Ningning and put her on.

Ningning treated the two large bags of clothes on the back seat as if they were a mountain to climb, climbing over and over again, and was extremely happy.

"Auntie, Cuiling, we're leaving first!" Jiang Yue got on the passenger seat and waved to Auntie Yang and Yang Cuiling who were standing at the store door.

"Your store owner is so lucky. The store she opened makes so much money, and her husband can drive. Hey, her husband is in the army, right? What does he do? Is he a driver? He can drive such a big jeep when he goes out!"

As she watched the jeep leave, Aunt Yang heard someone talking nearby. She turned around and saw that it was her neighbor who lived next door, a retired employee from a cotton socks factory.

"Our shop owner has good vision, courage and determination. Now that the policy is good, anyone can open a shop. If you open a shop, you will definitely be able to make money in this way!" Aunt Yang said evasively.

"Haha, sister, you are joking. I am an old man and will soon be buried. How can I do business?" The old man laughed awkwardly.

Aunt Yang didn't respond, but just laughed along.

In the car, Gu Ye told Jiang Yue what Commander Zheng had looked for him about in the afternoon.

When Jiang Yue heard Zhu Xiaomei blame her for all the children dropping out of school, she was speechless.

Gu Ye said: "She should be very anxious now. I heard that she goes to the teacher's office building every day to ask the teacher to take care of this matter! If the kindergarten can't accept any students, it may be closed!"

"No wonder!" Jiang Yue snorted, "A few days ago she stopped me at the camp gate and asked me to transfer Ningning back to school, but I refused!"

"I kindly reminded her to pay attention to the teacher's hygiene and the issue of Tian Lingling's son bullying other children, but she didn't take it seriously! Instead, she blamed me for setting a bad example by not sending Ningning to the division kindergarten!" Jiang Yue felt like she had swallowed a nest of flies.
