Chapter 66 Closer Than Blood Ties



“Jiang Yiran, you shouldn’t ask me if I mind, but rather if your second brother is willing. Your second brother is a free man, not my possession.”

Yu Hanfei spoke, her tone somewhat cold.

"Second Brother..." Jiang Yiran immediately looked frightened, grabbed Jiang Yongchang's arm, and hid behind him.

Jiang Yongchang frowned slightly and pulled Jiang Yiran's hand off his arm.

"Ranran, you're not a child anymore. Be mindful of your behavior."

"Third brother, you and Ranran stay home and help Mom. Feifei and I will go invite Qiaoqiao and Beixiao." Jiang Yongchang said, and was about to leave with Yu Hanfei.

Jiang Yiran became a little anxious and quickly grabbed Jiang Yongchang, "Second Brother, I really have something to tell you."

Jiang Yongchang's brows furrowed tightly.

Finally, he looked at Yu Hanfei and asked, "Feifei, wait for me a moment."

"No need. It's rare for you to come back. Ranran has something to say to you. You two siblings can have a good chat. I'll go to the market to find Qiaoqiao myself."

After Yu Hanfei finished speaking, she rode away on her bicycle.

During this period, Jiang Qiaoqiao received a new batch of denim skirts, and the denim skirts sold very well.

She's sold almost ten this morning alone.

A denim skirt costs twelve yuan to buy and sells for thirty yuan, making a profit of eighteen yuan. Selling ten skirts yields a net profit of one hundred and eighty yuan.

In addition, other items such as shirts, stirrup pants, and flared pants, as well as the menswear sold by Zhou Yang, also sold quite well.

The total profit is nearly 500 yuan.

Jiang Qiaoqiao did the math in her head: 500 a day, 30 days a month, it's impossible to sell that much every day.

But on average, it's at least 10,000 yuan a month.

Jiang Qiaoqiao was still very happy. In this era, it was rare to be a millionaire, and she could become one in just one month.

She was just about to close up shop and take Zhou Yang and Zhou Ling'er out to a restaurant to celebrate when she saw a familiar figure strolling up to her stall.

"Young man, are you setting up a stall to sell clothes?"

Xia Yuntao strolled over to Jiang Qiaoqiao's stall and asked kindly.

"Mr. Xia, did you come out for a stroll by yourself?" Jiang Qiaoqiao asked Xia Yuntao with a smile as she tidied up.

"Yes, I'm just wandering around and learning about the local customs and culture."

While Xia Yuntao was speaking, he was also paying attention to the clothes displayed on Jiang Qiaoqiao's stall.

Although Jiang Qiaoqiao only has a small stall with a limited selection of clothes and pants, every piece of clothing, skirt, and trousers is unique and eye-catching.

He had actually already seen Jiang Qiaoqiao doing business here.

He had been observing from a distance for a while.

He discovered that this young girl was really good at business.

With a sweet smile, pleasant voice, and sophisticated manner, many people who initially just wanted to browse ended up happily buying their favorite clothes after being persuaded by Jiang Qiaoqiao's sales pitch.

Moreover, the young man next to her was also a master at hawking and selling.

"Young man, is the man selling clothes with you your business partner?" Xia Yuntao asked.

Before Jiang Qiaoqiao could answer, Zhou Yang interjected, "I'm not a business partner, I'm my sister's brother."

"Are you also a member of the Jiang family?" Xia Yuntao asked, even more surprised.

Because Jiang Yongchang and Jiang Qiaoqiao saved him yesterday, he still has a very good impression of the Jiang family.

Zhou Yang said seriously, "No. But without my sister, there would be no me and no younger sister. To me, my sister is closer than blood relatives!"

Xia Yuntao nodded, but did not ask any further questions.

Seeing that Jiang Qiaoqiao and Zhou Yang had finished setting up their stall, Xia Yuntao asked, "Young comrades, I wonder if I could have the honor of treating you siblings to another meal today? We can talk about business while we eat."

Jiang Qiaoqiao saved his life, and he wanted to help her in return.

"Qiaoqiao, you're here!" Before Jiang Qiaoqiao could answer Xia Yuntao, Yu Hanfei's bicycle stopped in front of her. "Jiang Yiran went back. Your mother asked me and your second brother to come and call you back for dinner."

"Where is Second Brother?" Jiang Qiaoqiao was not surprised at all that Jiang Yiran would go back after Jiang Jiahua said he wanted to sever ties with her.

But she wondered why Yu Hanfei came alone, and why Jiang Yongchang wasn't with her.

Yu Hanfei shrugged slightly. "Jiang Yiran stopped me, saying that they were good siblings and wanted to catch up."

Jiang Qiaoqiao had a good impression of Hanfei. After thinking for a moment, she reminded her, "I heard today that Jiang Yiran sold her supermarket and still owes several hundred yuan in payments for goods and workers' wages."

Yu Hanfei understood, but said confidently, "Don't worry, your second brother won't give her any more money. If your second brother is really that clueless, there's no need for me to continue associating with him."

At this moment, Xia Yuntao said, "It seems that Comrade Qiao Qiao is too busy to have dinner with this old man today. I'll invite you another day."

"Oh, Mr. Xia, you're here too!"

Yu Hanfei only then noticed Xia Yuntao's presence and exclaimed in surprise.

"Qiaoqiao, if you have something to do with Mr. Xia for dinner, you don't need to go back. I'll just go back and tell them."

Yesterday, they also learned some information about Xia Yuntao's identity from the police.

Jiang Qiaoqiao wants to do business, and getting to know Xia Yuntao will be of great help to her in the future.

But having dinner with the Jiang family, especially with Jiang Yiran present, only added to Jiang Qiaoqiao's frustration.

"Thank you, Second Sister-in-law," Jiang Qiaoqiao said gratefully to Yu Hanfei.

After watching Yu Hanfei ride away on her bicycle, he said to Xia Yuntao, "Thank you for your hospitality yesterday, Mr. Xia. Today, please give me a chance to repay your hospitality."
