Commissar Yu drove Ye Shi'an and Zhao Lanxi to the compound. Jiang Yue and Yao Hua did not go back to the compound first. The fabric they mailed a few days ago had arrived at the town's post office. Since Commissar Yu was driving today, he could help them pick up the fabric.
Otherwise, it would be exhausting for Yao Hua and Jiang Yue to carry all that fabric back.
After seeing Ye Shi'an and Zhao Lanxi off, Political Commissar Yu asked Yao Hua and Jiang Yue, "I heard from Lao Lu that you bought a lot of fabric when you went to S City this time?"
Are you really planning to keep making and selling your own clothes forever?
Yao Hua didn't answer, but looked at Jiang Yue.
She listened to Yueyue and did whatever Yueyue told her to do.
Jiang Yue said, "What we're doing now is just to earn some pocket money. If we want to make real money, we can't rely on this kind of small-scale operation. You'll see how we make big money in winter. I can't tell you now."
Zhao Lanxi's idea of making and selling clothes served as a reminder to Jiang Yue. Jiang Yue didn't know why Zhao Lanxi had suddenly changed her career path, but she could guess that Zhao Lanxi's sudden desire to make and sell clothes was probably because she saw that Zhao Lanxi was making money selling clothes at the department store and wanted to follow her example.
If that's the case, she shouldn't let Zhao Lanxi know about her making down jackets for the time being.
After all, she's the female lead of this book, the author's darling. What if the author gives her another cheat code so she can steal his business? How am I supposed to compete then?
More than half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the post office.
Jiang Yue got off the bus and took the receipt to pick up the fabric that had been mailed to her.
Commissar Yu was dumbfounded as he watched the post office staff carrying out bags of fabric.
"You've brought the whole wholesale market back with you, haven't you?"
He couldn't fit more than twenty bags of fabric in his car.
Jiang Yue replied in a serious tone, "We really don't have any. We only bought a little bit."
Political Commissar Yu: "...You call this a tiny bit?"
With no other option, he borrowed a phone from the post office, called the military, and found two idle people to drive over and take the fabric back.
With so much fabric, the two women are probably going to be exhausted on the way back carrying it back again and again.
Soon, two young soldiers arrived in the army's usual grocery delivery vehicle, and the two vehicles were just enough to load all the fabric.
Back in the residential compound, Jiang Yue looked at the poplar trees downstairs whose leaves were beginning to turn yellow, and suddenly felt a strong urge to return home. Before, when she was struggling alone in the city, she felt like a rootless duckweed, never having a sense of belonging.
But at this moment, she suddenly felt a sense of belonging to a home, feeling at ease and at peace!
Commissar Yu asked someone to help carry all the fabric upstairs. Jiang Yue's house wasn't big, and with all that fabric, the whole house felt cramped. So Commissar Yu put half of the fabric directly on his side.
Jiang Yue specially asked Yao Hua to buy soda from the convenience store and give it to the young soldiers who had helped carry the fabric earlier, as a way of thanking them for their help.
"Sister-in-law, you don't need to be so polite. If there's anything we can do for you in the future, just let us know."
Jiang Yue's warm and generous attitude left a very good impression on the young soldiers.
They had previously heard that Jiang Yue was in love with Battalion Commander Pei and treated their Battalion Commander Lu badly, and they all felt that Jiang Yue was not good enough for their Battalion Commander Lu. But now that they have met Jiang Yue, they have found that those rumors were all lies.
Who said my sister-in-law doesn't like Battalion Commander Lu? Just now, when she was talking to them, she mentioned Battalion Commander Lu in one and a half out of every two sentences. It's obvious that she really likes Battalion Commander Lu.
Moreover, his sister-in-law has a particularly beautiful smile, and she is generous and warm-hearted. She is a perfect match for their Battalion Commander Lu.
It was already 1 p.m. when we saw off the young soldiers who had helped us.
Political Commissar Yu also went to work at the battalion headquarters. Jiang Yue and Yao Hua first cooked some noodles to solve their lunch problem, and then began to busy themselves with packing the fabrics they had bought.
Jiang Yue wanted to make a down jacket first, so that Shen Huaiyuan could see it.
She has already retrieved the fabric; all that remains is the design and the down.
Before going to S City, Jiang Yue asked Grandma Yuanyuan for help to find out if there were any people in town selling duck down, and if so, to help her buy a bag of it.
After taking out the fabric for the down jacket, Jiang Yue took two bags of children's chocolates and bear cookies and went upstairs to Yuan Yuan's house. She had bought these in S City.
I bought this especially for Yuanyuan.
Jiang Yue really likes Yuan Yuan. The little guy is very sensible and polite, and his chubby cheeks make him irresistible.
If she and Lu Jingnian have a child in the future, she will definitely raise the child just like Yuanyuan.
He knocked on Yuanyuan's door with the things in his hand, and soon there was a response from inside.
Grandma Yuanyuan opened the door. She was pleasantly surprised to see Jiang Yue return. "Yueyue, when did you come back?"
In the few days you were gone, Yuanyuan kept saying she missed you.
Jiang Yue smiled and coaxed Grandma Yuanyuan, "Is it just Yuanyuan who misses me? Doesn't Auntie miss me?"
"Yes, I miss you too. I even dreamt about you last night." Grandma Yuanyuan quickly ushered Jiang Yue into the house, looked at her earnestly, and shook her head with heartache. "You've lost weight. Have you been very busy these past few days, so you haven't been eating properly?"
Have you lost weight?
Jiang Yue said happily, "Auntie, I'm deliberately losing weight. People like to be thin these days, it looks good."
Grandma Yuanyuan disagreed with this statement, saying, "What do you mean by being thin and beautiful? Being too thin makes you look like a skeleton, which is not good-looking. You were very beautiful before, with a bit of baby fat on your face, which was especially cute."
"You can't lose any more weight. My daughter-in-law told me that being too thin weakens the immune system and makes you more susceptible to illness. You can't do that."
