Chapter 767: Grocery Store Fire
"Sister-in-law, how can it be familiar? I just heard Brother Jiang Qi talk about it. I'm afraid this is the topaz hairpin. Look, sister-in-law, there are several topaz on it, like water droplets after rain, embedded in the pistil. It's really beautiful and lifelike. Wasn't it sold? Why was it given to us?" Liu Xinlan walked forward, took a look, and explained.
After saying this, he felt a little surprised.
"When he has something good, he naturally thinks of you first. I'm afraid this hairpin is for you. Come, let your sister-in-law help you put it on." Bai smiled from ear to ear. Although she liked this hairpin very much, she would not snatch it from her sister-in-law, so she reached out and put the chrysanthemum hairpin on her sister-in-law's hair.
"Here are two more. Hey, this kid probably gave one to each of us three. Look, this is an azalea hairpin, and this is a plum hairpin. I think the plum hairpin is more suitable for Xinlan. Come, take off the chrysanthemum hairpin. It makes her look a little old-fashioned." Li took out two more hairpins from the package and smiled happily.
Son-in-law, son-in-law, the more I look at him, the more I like him.
Her good son-in-law is handsome, has a good family background, and is sensible and polite.
The three of them divided the hairpins. Li asked for the chrysanthemum hairpin, Liu Xinlan asked for the plum hairpin, and Bai asked for the azalea hairpin.
Instead, they divided up the pink sapphire hairpins that were very popular in the city.
The three of them prefer this yellow sapphire.
Liu Yunhai and the head of the Liu family were jealous and started to distribute the gifts as well.
You have a pair of shoes, and he has a jade pendant.
So many gifts were divided up completely.
The Liu family has never lacked money, but they also find these rare items rare.
Everyone likes it very much.
On the other hand, after visiting the grocery store, Jiang Tongxiang took his brother and sister to a nearby restaurant for dinner.
The three of them ordered six dishes and finished them all, so there was no waste.
After leaving the restaurant, one went back to the school to find Dong Wei, one went to the clinic to see patients, and the remaining Jiang Tongxiang went to the snack shop and asked his grandmother to help him choose an auspicious day before opening the business.
Finally it was set on October 2nd.
Time passed quickly, accompanied by the noisy sound of firecrackers.
Jiang's grocery store opened for business.
Jiang Fubao made the cabinets inside look modern, with all items displayed on the walls. One can see the dazzling array of merchandise inside even when standing at the door.
The people of Lianshan Town, who loved to join in the hustle and bustle, crowded into the hall.
In the end, it was the Jiang family's servants who came to help maintain order, otherwise there would have been a stampede.
These people took number plates and lined up in a long queue.
Each waiter can only receive one person at a time.
The grocery store is very large. It takes at least thirty steps to walk from the leftmost side to the rightmost side.
The first customer was Yang Wanli, a regular customer of the snack shop.
Now, he is almost fifty years old. His hair has turned gray, but his legs and feet are in good condition. He walks steadily and is very energetic. Except for some age spots and wrinkles on his face, he looks not much different from before.
As soon as he came in, he picked out a pair of shoes, bought a small toy for his great-grandson, and then continued shopping.
Jiang Fubao was also helping in the shop.
When she saw Yang Wanli, she walked up to him and greeted him, and also asked about the fourth and fifth girls.
The two were none other than Jiang Sanniu's biological sisters who had killed her.
"You are talking about Baimei and Hongmei. Your grandmother Shi had freed Baimei from slavery and married her off. She fell in love with the son of a manager next door to my house. You happened to be out at the time, so I specially asked Baimei to call you for the wedding, but you were not at home.
Look at me, I have forgotten about this. Baimei is already pregnant. Let her go to the clinic to see you someday, and you can take her pulse to see how she is doing. This child has a good heart. Even after getting married, she often comes back to accompany you, Grandma Shi. And Hongmei, hehe, she is already my granddaughter-in-law."
When talking about the two sisters, Yang Wanli smiled lovingly.
Jiang Fubao was stunned when he heard that Hongmei had become Yang Wanli's granddaughter-in-law.
"Ah? Hongmei is going to marry Brother Fengnian?" Jiang Fubao opened his mouth wide.
"Yes, Fengnian likes Hongmei, and our family doesn't care about family background. Although Hongmei was a maid before, she is now a good woman. It's not a big deal for her to marry Fengnian, as we know each other well. It's better than marrying a troublemaker. Your grandmother Shi and I are old and can't stand the trouble anymore.
Hongmei has a hard life, but luckily she met us, and she is a good person, otherwise we would not agree. By the way, come to our house one day and visit Hongmei? She just gave birth to a daughter, and your grandmother Shi asked her to stay in the confinement period, which is good for her health..."
Yang Wanli kept talking, and Jiang Fubao didn't get annoyed and listened patiently.
Time goes by so fast.
Jiang Fubao was very pleased to hear that the two sisters, who were once poor little girls, were now living a better life than the other.
She hopes these girls can have a happy future.
Whether you marry the right person or live alone for the rest of your life, as long as you are happy, that's all that matters.
Although people in ancient times were thought to be feudal and conservative, some were open-minded, such as Grandpa Yang in front of him. Jiang Fubao had never expected that his family did not care about family background and even looked up to Hongmei, who was born a maid. This showed that he was really satisfied with Hongmei, or he did not care for the sake of his grandson's happiness, just because Yang Fengnian liked Hongmei.
Women are lowly, but only those who look down on women and those who think they themselves are lowly think so.
Like grandma, she never felt that she was lowly, so she would not think that her daughter, granddaughter, daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law were lowly.
After watching Yang Wanli leave, Jiang Fubao's mood improved.
Therefore, she received guests with a smile as beautiful as a flower.
The already crowded shop had even more people lining up.
Lianshan Town at that time was no longer the poor and dilapidated town it once was.
The number of light people has increased by more than three times.
Almost all the vacant shops and houses in the town have been bought out.
It just so happens that people in the mountain town love to eat and join in the fun, so wherever a new shop opens, there will be many people, not to mention the Jiang family, a name that everyone knows.
The grocery store is new and it’s owned by the Jiang family, so it’s bound to be popular.
I was busy from morning till dark, and the shop was sold out within a day.
You know, one third of Jiang Tongxiang’s goods were placed in the shop.
In just one day, two-thirds were left.
Jiang Fubao was also stunned.
She urged her second brother to make another trip as soon as possible, and then she took over the shop, helped to run the store, and also issued new regulations to limit purchases.
Jiang Fubao goes to the clinic to see patients every morning, and then goes to the grocery store after lunch. He is as busy as a top.
Meng Bujiu was so heartbroken.
He secretly sent a team, dressed as ordinary people, to look for Jiang Tongxiang, just like last time.
Fearing that they would be discovered, they let them pass Jiang Tongxiang first to clear the roadblocks.
Jiang Fubao had no idea what he had done.
