Chapter 64 A Bite of Daily Life
When the two of them returned home, it was already completely dark.
The car lights shone on the gate of the yard. Three children were sitting at the gate with their heads held up and looking forward to it. When they saw the car, Qin Chuyang was the first to react. He stood up immediately and walked to the side. Qin Xiao parked the car at the gate.
Jiang Tang got out of the car quickly and looked at the three kids sitting in a row at the door.
Qin Chuyang immediately came over and grabbed her trouser legs. The little girl looked up at her and said in a soft and polite voice, "Sister, you are back. We have to go home too. Goodbye."
After saying this, the two children skipped away.
Jiang Tang helped Qin Chuyang open the door, and Qin Xiao drove the car into the yard.
"It's early morning, is it cold?" The young man had been waiting for them at the door, he must be very cold.
Jiang Tang touched the boy's face and found it was indeed cool.
The tip of his nose was red, and Qin Chuyang shook his head vigorously, "It's not cold."
Jiang Tang led the boy into the company room and touched his head. "Has your friend been waiting for your brother and sister-in-law at the door with you?"
Qin Chuyang nodded, "Yeah."
These little guys really get along well with each other and are very sensible.
Qin Xiao parked the car and walked into the kitchen, where he quickly started a fire. Jiang Tang took out some ponytails and grilled them for the boy.
"Qin Xiao, just have a bowl of noodles tonight." It's too late to come back, and it's too troublesome to do anything else.
Qin Xiao put the pot on the stove, added water, and cooked the noodles directly after it boiled. Jiang Tang made the soup, and they started eating the noodles after a while.
After Qin Xiao finished eating, he went to the bathroom to turn on the water heater before coming back.
Jiang Tang touched the little boy's face, which was no longer cold.
It was getting late, so after dinner I washed the kid and went to bed.
The weather was getting colder and Qin Xiao hadn't come back yet. After Jiang Tang finished cooking, he had already prepared a lot of meatballs and meat, and the vegetables were also washed. When the weather is cold, it is best to eat hot pot, which can warm the body after eating.
When it got dark, the sound of a car horn was heard outside the door, and Jiang Tang asked Qin Chuyang to open the door.
"Sister-in-law, sorry to bother you."
It was the voices of Zhang Hetian and Wang Qile. They got out of the car and ran all the way to the kitchen. Looking at the pot in the kitchen, they knew they were going to eat hot pot.
I was eager to sit down, "Sister-in-law, hot pot is my favorite."
Jiang Tang smiled and glanced at him, "Well, don't sit down yet. There is hot water in the bathroom. Get some hot water out and wash your hands before you go to the table."
"Okay, okay." Wang Qile immediately went into the bathroom and came out with a basin of warm water. After washing their hands, a group of people quickly sat down in their seats.
Zhang Hetian served rice to everyone before sitting down.
"Sister-in-law, I'm bothering you again."
Jiang Tang shook his head, "Eating hot pot is a crowd thing."
She put the meat into the pot, and the group of people ate it with their mouths full of deliciousness. They opened their mouths unconsciously and exhaled, feeling extremely satisfied.
Wang Qilei ate several mouthfuls of chopsticks before saying, "Sister-in-law, this is what happened. We came here this time because we have an order and want your help."
"The previous orders were all fine, and you've looked at them, sister-in-law. This time it's a batch of winter clothing orders, and some styles have not been confirmed. Brother Hetian also went to Pengcheng before and got a lot of sample goods. We would like you to help take a look."
Jiang Tang did not refuse, "Sure, have you brought the sample back? We can do it after dinner."
"No, we don't want to disturb your sister-in-law's rest at home. It's so late now. We want her to go to the factory with us tomorrow to take a look."
"good."
"I'll go with you tomorrow."
Jiang Tang made the decision readily. She had promised them before that it was hard to find designers nowadays, so she would definitely help if she could.
"Hey, thank you, sister-in-law."
Wang Qilei raised a glass to Jiang Tang and drank it himself.
Jiang Tang only took the tea and took a sip. After eating a hot pot, Jiang Tang left the cleaning work to them and went to the bathroom to take a shower. After eating the hot pot, she smelled bad, so she had to take a shower first.
When I came out, Qin Xiao and the others had already cleaned up the room.
Jiang Tang walked in the yard for a while until he felt cold, then he went upstairs and entered the bedroom.
She yawned, then snuggled into the quilt, her body temperature gradually warming up. When Qin Xiao came in, Jiang Tang's voice sounded lazy.
"Qin Xiao, how are Sister Lu and the others?"
Qin Xiao took off his coat, turned off the light, walked to the bed in his pajamas, and climbed into bed.
"He's still in the provincial capital."
Jiang Tang turned sideways and looked at Qin Xiao, "Did the child really get beaten?"
"Um."
Jiang Tang said "oh" and waited until the man got into bed, then whispered, "It's almost winter, I want to buy an electric blanket."
"Chuyang is sleeping alone. He is a small guy and I don't think he can keep warm. It would be a good idea to buy him an electric blanket."
Qin Xiao responded.
Jiang Tang yawned heavily, closed his eyes and slowly fell asleep.
The next morning, after Jiang Tang woke up and had breakfast, she followed Qin Xiao and the others to the factory. This time she brought her little one with her.
When Qin Chuyang heard that his sister-in-law wanted to take him with her, he was visibly happy, and Jiang Tang's heart softened.
After going to the factory together, Jiang Tang discovered the changes in the factory. The factory was still organizing expansion not far away, and it was estimated that it would recruit more next year.
When they arrived together, everyone they met had a smile on their face and greeted them warmly.
Qin Xiao took Jiang Tang into the office.
The office is filled with sample clothes piled up in piles.
Jiang Tang walked over, and Zhang Hetian walked over to her and introduced her.
"Sister-in-law, these are the winter styles we plan to release this time. I have selected all the ones I can. They are similar to the styles that all the factories are releasing this time."
We won’t fall behind, but we won’t be ahead either.
Jiang Tang looked at it carefully.
These were also the most popular styles from the 1980s to the early 1990s.
She spent the whole morning choosing, selecting the most popular elements of the period from these styles.
Zhang Hetian looked at it, then smiled and glanced at Qin Xiao next to Jiang Tang, and laughed softly, "Sister-in-law, your choice is similar to what Brother Xiao thought. I think we should still take the lion's share of this order."
Wang Qilei also touched his head happily, "That's right."
"I have no trouble selling the styles my sister-in-law selected for export."
Jiang Tang turned to look at the man next to him and said softly, "Qin Xiao, you still haven't hired a designer?"
The man shook his head expressionlessly, "Yeah."
Zhang Hetian said, "Sister-in-law, although we have a good reputation now, we still can't hire people. When they hear that we are coming to a small place, they are not willing to come. Besides, the powerful ones are usually in cities like Hong Kong, Pengcheng and the capital. It's really a loss of face to come to our county."
Jiang Tang stared at the clothes in the office and whispered, "Let me try it on."
She looked at Qin Xiao and said, "I have read a lot of design books before, and I tried to design some new styles."
"But, Qin Xiao, if we can't find a designer, can we find an experienced tailor in Wuli County?"
Wang Qilei looked at her and said, "Sister-in-law, have you forgotten that my mother can do these things?"
Jiang Tang also suddenly realized and remembered that he had "designed" a piece of clothing for Qin Xiao before, and it was Aunt Gui Mei who helped him make it.
She immediately looked at Wang Qilei and said, "Leizi, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. I can ask Aunt Guimei for help."
Jiang Tang pulled Qin Xiao's arm and said loudly, "I'll take some time to draw all the designs I can think of. Then I'll ask Aunt Gui Mei to help me adjust the proportions of the clothes. Once I design a sample garment, you can take a look and see if it's okay."
As soon as Jiang Tang said this, Wang Qilei was most confident, "It will definitely work, sister-in-law."
The people he trusts the most now are Brother Xiao and sister-in-law. When sister-in-law said she was willing to give it a try, he had already made up his mind about the matter.
Qin Xiao stared at the little girl with his dark eyes, and responded, saying calmly, "Don't worry, these samples are enough now, we have already opened up the market."
The little girl was very capable and he didn't want to put pressure on her.
Jiang Tang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll do my best."
She looked at Qin Xiao, "Do I need to come to work with you every day in the future?"
The man smiled in his dark eyes and whispered, "No, designers are free."
Zhang Hetian also smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, just follow your own wishes."
Jiang Tang nodded and looked at Wang Qilei, "Leizi, when I have designed the style, I will give it to you. You can take it to Auntie Gui Mei and ask her to make some adjustments and make the sample garment as soon as possible."
"Sister-in-law, don't worry."
It was almost autumn, and fearing that time might run out, Jiang Tang took all the necessary things from the factory before following Qin Xiao home.
"Leizi, Hetian, I will get it out as soon as possible, but we don't need to stop producing the styles we have already selected. We can produce them normally. We don't have to worry about not being able to sell them."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, we know."
Jiang Tang led Qin Chuyang into the car. Qin Xiao put all the things in the trunk before driving Jiang Tang back home.
As soon as he got home, Jiang Tang didn't rest. He took his things and went up to the study on the second floor.
Then I sat down in my office chair and started thinking about the design seriously.
Today's winter clothing styles are monotonous, Jiang Tang tried hard to recall the long-standing popular elements of later generations and made a careful draft.
After a while, the man came in carrying a pot of charcoal and placed it next to Jiang Tang's legs.
Jiang Tang felt the warmth on her cold feet. She lowered her eyes to glance at the charcoal fire beside her feet, then raised her eyes and smiled at Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao did not leave, but lowered his eyes to stare at the thing in front of the little girl.
His black eyes lit up and he stared intently.
Jiang Tang pushed the painting over to him and said, "It's just a rough draft, it's not complete yet. I want to draw everything I can think of first, and then refine it. When it's done, you and He Tian can choose among them. The ones that can be used should be completed before winter comes."
The man stared at her carefully, listening to her words, then turned his head to look at the smiling girl next to him.
His wife doesn't seem to know how powerful she is.
After showing it to Qin Xiao, Jiang Tang continued to immerse herself in it. Since time was tight, she had to find a way to get out as quickly as possible.
"Qin Xiao, when you hand all these things over to Aunt Gui Mei, you will be responsible for selecting the fabrics. I want the best."
Now that she has started making it, she hopes that the fabrics she chooses will match the original.
After saying that, Jiang Tang tilted his head and looked at the man next to him. "Also, since we are designing it ourselves this time, it is different from the previous time when we only had sample clothes. I want to come up with a good brand name after we design it."
Before, they sold them under the name of foreign trade according to their own factories.
Since we want to innovate this time and try to design our own products, we definitely need to build a brand. When we want to expand our influence in the future, we can sell our products under our own brand, which will give us another option.
"Brand name..."
The man murmured.
"Yes, and you said that designers don't want to come here. Maybe they think we are just a processing factory and it would just bury them. After we promote the latest styles, maybe we can recruit more people."
The little girl had a good idea. Qin Xiao stared at the porcelain-white face next to him and responded softly.
Jiang Tang held a pen, rested his hands on his head, and leaned against the table, thinking.
Qin Xiao quietly left the room and went downstairs.
As soon as he went downstairs, he saw Qin Chuyang staring at him at the stairs.
"Brother, is sister-in-law still working?"
Knowing that Jiang Tang was at work, Qin Chuyang did not disturb her. He hadn't seen his sister-in-law for a long time.
"Hmm, hungry?"
The young fellow shook his head dejectedly and followed Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao went to the kitchen and started cooking.
Wait until it's dark outside.
The charcoal fire beside Jiang Tang's legs had burned out.
Jiang Tang stretched, stood up, looked towards the door, and was shocked to realize that it was already too late.
She picked up the remnants of the charcoal fire, pushed the door open and walked out of the study, then quickly went downstairs.
In the kitchen, Qin Xiao had just finished cooking the last dish. The boy was waiting obediently with a plate in his hand. Jiang Tang walked in.
Hearing her voice, the two turned to look at her, and Qin Chuyang's little face immediately lit up.
"Sister-in-law, are you done with your work?"
Jiang Tang smiled and nodded, then walked in.
Qin Xiao took the plate from Qin Chuyang, put the dishes in it, and whispered, "Eat."
Jiang Tang walked to the dining table and saw three dishes and a soup on it. He didn't know how they tasted, but the color didn't look very good and was a bit bland.
She sat at the table and Qin Xiao served her a bowl of rice.
Jiang Tang looked into the pot. This was probably the most scalded rice she had ever seen.
The family sat at the table. Jiang Tang picked up a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, nodded silently, tilted his head to look at the expressionless man next to him, and whispered, "Not bad, cooked."
Qin Xiao twitched the corners of his lips, took a sip, and nodded slightly without changing his expression.
The young man also ate his meal obediently, then tilted his head to look at Jiang Tang, "Sister-in-law, do you still have to work tomorrow?"
The food my brother cooks is not tasty, but we can’t tire my sister-in-law out.
He can't be with his sister-in-law because she is working, and he can't even see her.
"Well, you can only play with us Chuyang after your sister-in-law finishes her work."
"Sister-in-law, Chuyang won't bother you, Chuyang, be good."
At this point, he tilted his head and looked at Qin Xiao beside him, pouting his lips, "Sister-in-law, don't let your brother bother you either."
I feel so sorry that my brother delayed my sister-in-law for so long when he was delivering fire to her today.
Not good at all, not like him.
Jiang Tang tilted her head to look at the man who was eating quietly beside her without saying a word, and responded with a smile.
After finishing the meal, Jiang Tang wanted to go into the study, but was stopped by the frowning man, "Don't do it tonight."
Staring into the little girl's watery eyes, "No rush."
Jiang Tang compromised, "Okay."
I just don’t know if it will succeed in the end. Now the factory is still producing normally, so there’s no need to rush.
Jiang Tang returned to the room, took out her pajamas, and prepared to take a shower.
Qin Xiao whispered, "I'll take Qin Chuyang to wash first."
Jiang Tang blinked, looked at him and nodded.
She walked into the bedroom with her pajamas and warmed herself by the fire for a while before Qin Xiao brought Qin Chuyang out of the bathroom.
Jiang Tang walked into the bathroom, felt the warmth inside, was silent for a moment, and smiled slightly.
Quickly take off your clothes and take a shower.
When she came out, Qin Xiao went into the bathroom, washed all the dirty clothes, took them out and hung them on the stove in the bedroom.
In the next few days, Jiang Tang drew design drawings during the day. Qin Xiao did not return to the factory. Wang Qile and Zhang Hetian were watching over the factory, while he cooked, did laundry and cleaned at home.
Although the taste of the food was a bit average, it allowed Jiang Tang to work in peace.
It took Jiang Tang a whole week to finish the design. At noon on the day when it was finished, Jiang Tang excitedly took the drawing and ran downstairs, then carefully handed it to Qin Xiao.
"Qin Xiao, take a look. Let's get through this first. If everything is OK, you can call Lei Zi and the others over this afternoon, and then hand the drawings to Aunt Gui Mei as soon as possible to make the sample garments so that we can start mass production later."
Qin Xiao stared at the delicate drawing papers in the little girl's hands. These were completely different from the casual drawings the little girl had mentioned before. Jiang Tang had put a lot of effort into them.
Qin Xiao knew it was feasible the first time he saw it. He carefully put away the drawings, handed them to Jiang Tang, and whispered, "I'll go to the factory now and call them back."
Seeing this, Qin Xiao thought it was okay. Jiang Tang smiled and said, "Well, go ahead. We'll wait for you to come back."
Qin Xiao got into the car without delay and left. Jiang Tang put away the drawings in his hand.
Qin Chuyang came over and looked at Jiang Tang happily, "Sister-in-law, have you finished your work?"
Jiang Tang touched his head with a smile, "Yes, Chuyang, sister-in-law can play with us Chuyang now."
Qin Chuyang was hanging on Jiang Tang's legs. The little guy had grown a lot bigger now, and Jiang Tang could hardly handle it.
Fortunately, the young man knew his current physical condition and let go of Jiang Tang after sticking to her for a while.
Qin Xiao soon came with Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian.
Several people went to the study, and Jiang Tang put the drawings he had prepared on the desk and handed them to them.
Wang Qilei's head was almost stuck to the painting, staring at the exquisite design drawn by Jiang Tang without blinking.
Then he raised his head and stared at Jiang Tang blankly, unable to speak at first.
Zhang Hetian was also shocked. He looked at Jiang Tang and said, "Sister-in-law, this is not just a barely acceptable painting."
This is amazing.
The moment they saw it, they knew it was a success.
Wang Qilei finally reacted, staring at Jiang Tang and giving her a thumbs up, "Sister-in-law, you are really amazing."
Jiang Tang blinked and whispered, "So, this is okay, right?"
"Of course." The three men said in unison.
Wang Qilei clicked his tongue twice, "Sister-in-law, this is not acceptable at all, this is simply too good to be true."
Hearing him say this, Jiang Tang let out a sigh.
"That's fine. Then Leizi, you need to take all these design drawings to Aunt Guimei and work with her to make the sample garments. Qin Xiao and Hetian will send the design drawings to the partners to see if they need to place additional orders."
Wang Qilei responded, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. Even if they don't want to place an order, we can make these styles in our factory. Leizi will continue to sell them in the city, and Xiaoge and I will transport them to other places to sell them."
"That's right, I'll take care of selling the clothes."
Wang Qilei has done a lot and is very confident.
Jiang Tang smiled and nodded, looking at Qin Xiao, "If you send the drawings to other partners, I have a copy without the data, only the front and back of the design. You can send it out with a fax machine, and then use the phone at home to contact them and see if you can add an order."
Qin Xiao nodded, he had the same idea.
"Yes, we can also use fax directly."
Wang Qilei made the decision and was very happy.
Qin Xiao picked up the drawing and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I'll take you back first, and you take the things to Aunt Gui Mei."
Wang Qilei immediately raised his head and stood at attention, "Yes."
The four of them left the study and went downstairs together, and Qin Xiao and Wang Qilei got in the car.
Jiang Tang whispered, "Come back as soon as you can after you send it off, and have a good meal to celebrate in the evening."
"Okay! Sister-in-law." Wang Qile responded positively.
Jiang Tang watched the car drive out of the yard.
He turned to Zhang Hetian and said, "Hetian, you stay and help me."
Zhang Hetian readily responded and followed Jiang Tang into the kitchen. Qin Chuyang followed happily in to help Jiang Tang.
The young man was a good helper, so Jiang Tang did not refuse.
Although the weather is cold, there is hot water at home, so it is no problem for the little guy to sit on a small stool to wash vegetables.
Zhang Hetian replaced Qin Xiao, and Jiang Tang asked him to kill the chicken.
I put on an apron and prepared to start making braised pork.
Jiang Tang was busy in the kitchen. It was almost dark when Qin Xiao and Wang Qilei came back.
Wang Qilei sniffed the fragrance in the air and immediately ran into the kitchen. The coldness in his body completely disappeared and he felt warm.
"Sister-in-law, we are back." He ran to Jiang Tang and greeted her cheerfully.
Qin Xiao walked into the house from behind and saw Wang Qilei standing next to Jiang Tang, his dark eyes slightly dimmed.
Zhang Hetian glanced at the big idiot and shook his head silently, "Leizi, come and help me serve the dishes."
"Hey, here I come." Wang Qilei walked to Zhang Hetian and helped him serve the dishes to the table.
Qin Xiao walked to Jiang Tang's side and helped silently.
Until serving.
He brought a bowl of hot soup and started eating.
Jiang Tang looked at Qin Xiao, "Qin Xiao, what did Aunt Gui Mei say?"
Qin Xiao picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Jiang Tang's bowl, and whispered, "It's ready."
Jiang Tang was also happy that Aunt Gui Mei could do it.
Looking at the little girl's smiling face, Qin Xiao raised the corners of his lips, "I will fax the drawings to her tomorrow to see the response. Once the sample clothes are made, we will start mass production as soon as possible."
Jiang Tang gave him a piece of meat with his chopsticks, "It's definitely okay."
Wang Qilei smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, my mother saw the picture you made and thought it was beautiful."
"Now, people of all ages love it very much."
“There will definitely be no problem this time.”
Jiang Tang smiled and nodded, "Since we have already started making samples, let's think about a name for the clothes this time."
When it comes to naming something, everyone is eager to come up with a good name.
"Brother Xiao, let you guys do the thinking of a name. I'm afraid you'll laugh at the name I come up with." He was the student with the worst grades here, so he didn't want to join in the fun.
Jiang Tang smiled, "It doesn't matter. We are also lazy about naming, and we don't necessarily need to come up with it today. We can decide after the sample garments are ready and when we start production."
"I still need to design a good logo and make anti-counterfeiting signs. I'll think about it slowly."
Wang Qilei nodded half-comprehendingly, "Sister-in-law, I don't quite understand what you're saying, but I'll listen to you."
"Sister-in-law, how about the name Hongzhi?" Zhang Hetian looked at Jiang Tang, and it was rare to see a trace of embarrassment on his gentle face.
Wang Qilei smiled and said, "Hehehe, I think it's good too. The word 'zhi' sounds good."
Jiang Tang blinked, "I mean to choose a brand that can have both Chinese and foreign names. After all, we still have to do foreign trade, so it would be nice to have a foreign name."
"My sister-in-law is right." Zhang Hetian was not disappointed. What Jiang Tang said was obviously right.
Their main business is foreign trade, so it would be most appropriate if they could have a foreign name.
"Sister-in-law, regarding choosing a foreign name, I and Brother Hetian probably can't help you. It's up to you and Brother Xiao to decide."
I guess it was my sister-in-law who made the decision. Given Brother Xiao's current level of foreign language proficiency, Wang Qilei vaguely heard Brother Xiao talking on the phone with that foreign businessman last time, and he spoke word by word. I guess it's uncertain.
Zhang Hetian also meant this and handed the matter over to Jiang Tang.
Jiang Tang glanced at Qin Xiao beside him, and the man nodded, "Let's eat first, and wait for your sister-in-law and I to come up with the logo, and let Aunt Gui Mei make the clothes."
"Hehehe, okay." Wang Qile responded with a smile. He didn't have to use his brain anymore, so he was naturally happy. The food in his mouth tasted much more delicious.
After finishing his meal, Jiang Tang went back to the bedroom first, and Qin Xiao came in after a while.
Jiang Tang looked at him, "Qin Xiao, do you have any good ideas?"
Qin Xiao turned on the light and lay on the bed, "No."
The man turned sideways, looked at Jiang Tang in the dark, and whispered, "Jiang Tang, your Chinese name is already difficult. It's not easy to come up with a Chinese and foreign name."
Jiang Tang couldn't help but curl his lips and whispered, "You can't even pick a name. If in the future..."
"Well, forget it. I'll think about it first. Once I've chosen a name, I'll see what you think."
Jiang Tang braked suddenly, then turned his back to Qin Xiao and said softly, "Go to sleep first and think about it tomorrow."
In the darkness, there was a rustling sound, and Jiang Tang felt her back pressed against the man's chest, and she was held in his arms.
Jiang Tang blinked and said nothing, his heart beating like a drum.
The man spoke in a hoarse voice, wrapped in patience, "Jiang Tang, what about the future?"
Jiang Tang swallowed lightly and coughed, "Nothing, I'm sleepy, Qin Xiao."
The man's voice completely invaded Jiang Tang's ears from the darkness, "When we have a child in the future, you will be the one to name him."
Doesn't this man know what moderation means? She had clearly asked him to stop, but he still told her about it and made her feel ashamed. How mean.
Jiang Tang wrinkled her nose, turned her head angrily, and pinched the man's strong arm with her hands with great effort. She leaned over to cover him and bit the man's neck hard without any mercy.
In the silent and dim room, the man took a deep breath and held Jiang Tang's waist tightly without loosening his grip. As the girl bit harder, the grip on her waist became tighter and tighter.
Jiang Tang threw her whole body on Qin Xiao, the man's warm skin was between her lips and teeth. She bit hard and heard the man's breathing while enduring the pain, and then his panting became heavier and heavier.
Jiang Tang blinked, realized something, and immediately loosened his teeth.
He released the man's arm and backed away from Qin Xiao's chest, without loosening the iron arm restraining his waist.
Jiang Tang accused, "Qin Xiao...are you a pervert?"
She bit him without mercy.
Qin Xiao's throat rolled, and his hands that were kneading Jiang Tang's waist slowly loosened. Then, there was an empty space in his arms. Jiang Tang was so far away from him that she was almost sticking to the bed.
The cold wind blew into the quilt, but Jiang Tang didn't feel cold at all. His body was extremely hot. He exhaled softly and whispered, "Qin Xiao, don't you feel any pain?"
The man replied in a hoarse voice, "It doesn't hurt."
Jiang Tang wrinkled his nose, "Oh, it doesn't hurt, go to sleep."
After saying this, she closed her eyes and hid far away.
Qin Xiao stared at the thin figure not far away with deep black eyes. He just lay there motionless. It was unknown how long it had passed before the little girl, feeling the cold air, snuggled back into the man's arms. The man held the soft and warm girl in his arms. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
After that, Jiang Tang kept thinking about what name and logo he should choose.
She thought of several names, and finally chose one herself before asking Qin Xiao for his opinion.
"Qin Xiao, what do you think of the name Reese?"
"Rui originally symbolizes beauty. Words like auspicious and splendid are all beautiful. They also symbolize victory and success. So we named it Reisse."
Qin Xiao's lips moved silently as he recited the name silently.
"When we discuss cooperation with foreign companies, we use the name Reisse. When we negotiate orders with foreign companies, we call it Reisse for domestic orders. Then we will create a logo that combines Chinese and foreign elements to promote the brand."
After Jiang Tang finished speaking, he just looked at Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao stared at the little girl with his dark eyes and spoke in a hoarse voice, "Very good, Reese."
Hearing Qin Xiao say this, Jiang Tang also breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, then you go back and discuss it with He Tian and the others first. I'll think about it these few days and make the logo first."
"The initial logo is definitely not perfect. We will find a professional designer to improve it later. The most important thing now is to make the brand name known and gain recognition."
Jiang Tang said this because she is really unprofessional. Even though she has read a lot of design books these days and tried her best to learn to draw more professionally, her skills still cannot keep up with her ideas. It would be best if a designer could design what she has in her mind more perfectly.
In this situation now, we can only give Qin Xiao a preventive shot and use it first.
"I'm just a half-baked person. You definitely can't not hire a designer."
Qin Xiao looked at the little girl. She probably didn't know how powerful she was.
He responded in a low voice.
Qin Xiao went to the factory to discuss with Zhang Hetian and Wang Qilei.
"Reisse."
Zhang Hetian read the name again, his eyes slightly bright, staring at Qin Xiao, touching his nose a little embarrassed, "Hey, Brother Xiao, the name my sister-in-law gave is a hundred times better than the Hongzhi I mentioned before."
"The name has a good meaning, sounds nice, and is both Chinese and Western. I like this name."
"I like it, too." Wang Qilei raised his hand, but he couldn't say much, just nodded, "I just think the name sounds quite high-end, it feels like our processing plant has instantly reached a higher level."
Qin Xiao whispered, "If we focus on the local market, Hongzhi is good in itself, but now we still have to cooperate with foreign companies, and Reisse is more comprehensive."
Wang Qilei also nodded, "That's right. If we were targeting the domestic market, I would really like Hong Zhi, but now we definitely need to take care of both."
Zhang Hetian smiled and nodded.
Since they had no objection to the name, Jiang Tang prepared to start making the logo.
Qin Xiao was also busy negotiating orders with partners and faxing everything to them.
When communicating on the phone, also slowly promote the brand they mentioned.
When Jiang Tang finished designing the logo, Qin Xiao also brought good news.
"This order has been almost negotiated. Now the factory must start production immediately and ship the goods out before the season."
Jiang Tang also smiled and handed him the logo he had made. "Take a look at it first to see if it works. If you like it, take it over and add it to your clothes."
"For this time, we can just make a small logo print. For a large print, we need to make changes based on the previous design. It's a bit too late. We can do the large logo design for the next batch."
Qin Xiao also meant this. "Well, Aunt Gui Mei's sample garment is almost finished. I'll send the drawings over now. It shouldn't be that difficult to add this small logo. There's still time."
"good."
Qin Xiao sent the logo to the village.
Jiang Tang also received a call from Zhou's mother when he was at home.
"Hello, Mom."
When Zhou's mother heard her daughter's voice, she smiled. She held Zhou An in her arms and said with a smile, "Tangtang, is it snowing at home?"
Jiang Tang glanced at the yard and shook his head, "Not yet."
"It snowed in the capital today, and it's the first snow. Mommy thinks it will snow soon over there too, so I want to give you a call."
Jiang Tang smiled and said, "The temperature has dropped dramatically in the past few days, but it's not time yet."
"It should be soon."
Mother Zhou talked for a while before she nervously said what she really thought about making the call, "Tangtang, it will be the New Year soon."
After hearing what Zhou's mother said, Jiang Tang suddenly realized it, pursed his lips, and responded softly, "Yeah, the New Year is coming soon."
"Tangtang..."
Mother Zhou's voice was filled with expectation, "You haven't been home for a long time. Now Qin Xiao has started a business, and your family is not in such a difficult situation anymore."
"See if you can come home to spend the New Year."
"Mom and Dad really miss you."
If it were just the two of them, they could go look for their daughter-in-law without caring about anything. But now there is Zhou An at home, and they can't go far. They can only hope that their daughter-in-law can come to see them during the New Year.
After Zhou's mother finished speaking, the phone fell silent and Jiang Tang did not answer.
She was a little disappointed, but she didn't want to force her daughter, so she whispered, "Daughter, I was just talking casually. You must be busy over there, so you don't have to make a special trip during the New Year."
"Let's talk about it later when we have the chance."
She had always wanted her daughter to come back, and Chinese New Year was a time she had been thinking about for a long time, so she finally said it out loud. However, if her daughter was obviously unwilling, she would not say anything.
Mother Zhou was a little disappointed.
Jiang Tang did not answer her, but said softly, "It's snowing in the capital, you should wear more clothes."
Thinking of the clothes that the factory was going to make, Jiang Tang blinked, "The factory is planning to make a new batch of winter clothes recently. I'll send them to you when they're finished."
"Okay, thank you, my lady."
Zhou's mother's tone was a little disappointed, but she didn't say anything. She just expressed her concern for Jiang Tang a few more times and then hung up the phone.
When Qin Xiao came back, Jiang Tang sat in front of the stove, staring at Qin Xiao with his dark eyes.
"Qin Xiao, there was a call from the capital today."
The little girl's voice was a little faint. Qin Xiao turned to look at her and slowed down his voice, "What did you say?"
"They hope I can go back during the Chinese New Year."
Jiang Tang took a deep breath, feeling a little embarrassed. She could hear Zhou's mother's expectations, but she could also hear her disappointment when she didn't answer.
Qin Xiao looked at the little girl and said calmly, "Jiang Tang, listen to what you think."
He turned around, pulled Qin Chuyang in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "If you want to go back to the capital, we will accompany you."
"If you don't want to go back, we will accompany you."
Qin Chuyang held Jiang Tang's hand with his little hand and blinked his big eyes, "Sister-in-law, don't be sad, Chuyang and brother will go everywhere with you."
Jiang Tang raised his eyes and looked at the two people, one big and one small, who had similar faces in front of him. His lips lifted slightly, his mood gradually relaxed, and he responded softly.
The man covered the girl's and her brother's hands with his rough palms, completely enveloping them, and whispered, "If you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, stay home."
"There's still time to think about it. Don't be afraid."
The warm and rough temperature covered his hands, which went straight into his heart. Jiang Tang responded in a low voice, "Yeah."
Qin Xiao was right. It wasn't necessary for her to make a decision now. There was still some time before the Chinese New Year. If she suddenly wanted to go, she could take Qin Xiao and Chu Yang with her.
It's no big deal.
Jiang Tang held the little boy's small hand, and her own hand was held in Qin Xiao's. She looked up at the two brothers and whispered, "Let's talk about it after the New Year."
"If you really go to the capital, I can't guarantee that they won't make things difficult for you, but I will stand by your side."
Jiang Tang couldn't help but stare at Qin Xiao and make a promise.
Qin Xiao held the girl's hand tightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't worry about me. If you want to go back, I can do it for you."
It was just a harmless inconvenience, he would not take it seriously, it was something he had to experience sooner or later.
Jiang Tang held Qin Xiao's hand with her backhand, and said in a gentle and serious voice, "We have to take care of you. If they make things difficult for you, we will leave when we get there."
Qin Xiao stared at the serious-looking girl in front of him with his dark eyes, twitched the corners of his lips, and responded in a hoarse voice.
It would be enough if the little girl could show even a little consideration for him in front of her loving parents.
