During this period, the Jiang family and the Xia family married off their daughters at the same time. There was an atmosphere of secret competition in the compound, and all kinds of comparisons emerged one after another.
Liang Tianying revealed intentionally or unintentionally that the Gu family gave a betrothal gift of 1,000 yuan and also provided items such as three turns and a ring, and her words were full of pride.
After hearing this, Liu Xiulan was not willing to be outdone, so she asked Aunt Zhang to help her make a quilt. She even showed Aunt Zhang the fabrics and quilts she had prepared at home.
Aunt Zhang looked at the exquisite material and couldn't help but praise it: "Director Liu, you have a really good eye. The material of this quilt cover looks extraordinary. Where did you find it from?"
Liu Xiulan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said with a smug look on her face, "This was bought by the third child for the second child. It's from the south and it's not easy to get."
When Liang Tianying heard this, she was furious.
Xia Qiu saw his mother like this and tried to persuade her for a long time.
Gu Jingshen was a man of meticulous mind, and he saw through her little thoughts at a glance. Today, he waited for her to get off work and planned to take her to the department store for a stroll.
...
Jiang Tang has no time to take care of things at home as she has been very busy lately.
Today, cars from three units in the city will follow us to the commune.
Before leaving, Jiang Tang remembered something and ran to He Yan's house at dawn.
He Yan was still yawning when he opened the door. When he saw Jiang Tang, his eyes were so surprised that they almost overflowed from his glasses. He looked down at his watch and said, "Why are you here so early in the morning? Come in quickly."
Jiang Tang followed him in and said, "I just came to tell you that the house has been found. You don't need to pay attention to it anymore."
"Found it? So quickly?"
"Well, my best friend's colleague's house is just right."
"That's good. Have you eaten yet? Do you want to eat what I cook, or go out?"
Jiang Tang shook her head: "There's a road being built between our two villages. I found a few cars and have to take them there early this morning."
"What car?"
Jiang Tang gave him a brief account of the situation of the support vehicles of several units, checked the time, and turned to leave.
He Yan grabbed her and said, "Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing? Do you not trust me as a partner?"
"What do you want to say? Can you borrow your factory car?"
"able."
"Oh, really? If I had known, I would have come to you first."
He Yan pinched her cheek helplessly and said, "You're quite capable of finding so many cars by yourself. You don't mind taking this little time. I'll fry you two eggs and give you a glass of milk before we go."
"Ah, you still have milk."
He Yan raised his handsome eyebrows and said, "I bought it from Comrade Meng last time."
"You don't have to buy it next time. I'll just grab it from her for you."
He Yan smiled: "Is it still possible?"
"There's no distinction between you and me between the two of us."
"By the way, Comrade Meng told me last time to let her know when the washing machine is assembled." He Yan pointed inside the house and said, "It's already done. I tried it and it's very good."
"Really?" Jiang Tang ran in curiously to take a look. Although it was an old-fashioned horizontal washing machine, the quality was excellent. After coming out, she praised him: "He Yan, you are amazing, you are really a genius."
He Yan was so praised that he was in a very happy mood the whole morning.
When I arrived at the office, I still had a smile on my face.
After Jiang Tang left He Yan's house, she followed the three cars dispatched by the city to Hongguang Commune.
Before leaving, Jiang Tang called Secretary Zhou to inform him of the itinerary.
When the car arrived, Secretary Zhou attached great importance to it. He specially set off a string of firecrackers and held a simple but warm welcome ceremony.
When those who came to support saw such treatment, their hearts were warmed and their faces were filled with smiles.
Jiang Tang handed the vehicle allocation to Secretary Zhou, and he himself followed to check the progress of the road construction.
Secretary Zhou also invited technical staff from the county to provide guidance.
At this time, most of the young and middle-aged people in the village were busy with road construction, digging, leveling, and tamping. The small river on the left side of the village was also undergoing embankment repairs.
The technical officer gave the instructions earnestly: "Try to make the riverbank higher and wider, and plant trees on both sides. This will not only strengthen the embankment but also provide safety."
A villager responded with a smile: "Don't worry, we have finally built a road, we must make it well." It rained a few days ago and the weather was a little cooler, but it was still scorching hot at noon. However, everyone's face was always filled with longing for the future.
At this rate, the foundation can be laid in just over ten days.
Jiang Tang went to check the vegetables in the two villages again and found that another batch of vegetables were ripe.
She immediately arranged for the villagers to pick a batch early the next morning and send them to two farmers' markets and a newspaper office. She planned to put the rest in the mall and ask her best friend to help sell them.
Unlike Jiang Tang's frenzied work, Meng Si Ning's workday was relatively quiet. With nothing important to do this afternoon, she secretly checked on her shop in the mall.
There is very little popcorn left, only a few organic soybeans and peanuts are left, and soybean oil and peanut oil have long been sold out.
Meng Si Ning looked at the sales data and couldn't help muttering to himself: "This is selling out too fast, isn't it? Luckily I saved some for myself."
At this time, Maotu said, "My dear, since you spend a lot, our store ranks higher. Many customers still want soybean oil and peanut oil. Can you order another batch?"
Meng Sining checked his income and found that the store income alone was already one million.
I was secretly happy. If I continued like this, earning tens of millions a year didn't seem like an unattainable dream.
She pondered, "Food's hard to come by right now. Hmm... let me think about it. I've made so much money, it's time to spend it. My boyfriend's place gets cold early, so please help me pick out a set of thermal underwear. Ideally, something plain-looking, with plenty of material, and something retro that doesn't show its age. One set for the child, two sets for the men, and three sets for the women. The women's underwear will be for me, my mom, and my best friend."
The rabbit replied, "Okay, my lady... Ding... The purchase is complete, costing a total of two thousand yuan. Is there anything else my lady needs?"
Meng Si Ning teased, "Tsk, you didn't even ask me about their sizes, yet you bought them so confidently. I seriously suspect that some waiter was being lazy and deliberately made me spend money to buy you, so that I could spend money to buy an assistant to serve me. This is really like paying the price for the wool. I am a big complainer."
Maotu pretended to be wronged and said: "My lady, you dislike me... wuwu... wuwu"
Meng Si Ning quickly comforted him: "Okay, okay, that's not what I meant. You are quite sentimental. Are you pretending like a certain waiter?"
Maotu continued, "This little rabbit doesn't know how to pretend. Thank you for your love, my lord. My lord, the durian season has already come and gone, so you can plant other fruit trees. What do you want to plant? You can currently unlock mangosteen."
