After eating and drinking, Zeng Fang and Yun Mo took Ling Chunhua to the house to rest. Ling Chuan and Zhou Xiaowei cleaned up the mess in the yard, while Ling Jiang pushed his bicycle out to do business.
As soon as Zeng Fang entered the room, she saw the Walkman on the bookshelf.
"Hey, Momo, is this the new Walkman you bought?"
"Lingchuan bought it."
Zeng Fang smiled at her and winked, "Oh, it's different to have a husband who loves you."
"If you envy me, you can find a husband and get married sooner."
Yun Mo said it casually, but she didn't expect it to bring up the pain in Zeng Fang's heart.
The atmosphere became a little depressing for a moment.
Looking at her friend's depressed face, Yun Mo subconsciously wanted to comfort her, "Fang Fang..."
Zeng Fang calmed down and joked with her as if nothing had happened, "Do you think everyone is as lucky as you, to meet a good man like Ling Chuan who is tall, handsome, down-to-earth, motivated, and loyal to his feelings."
Yun Mo held the other person's hand, with a rare serious look on her face, "Fang Fang, you are great, and you will meet your Mr. Right in the future. Now you just need to live in the present, work hard to pursue your dreams, and leave no regrets for yourself. Everything else will be left to time."
Zeng Fang smiled brightly, "Yeah, okay."
After being comforted by Yun Mo, Zeng Fang was obviously in a much better mood. She shook the box in her hand, "Mo Mo, can I open it and take a look?"
"sure."
Zeng Fang opened the paper box and took out the Walkman inside.
Although this Walkman was much inferior to the imported ones she used in terms of style, appearance and quality, Zeng Fang did not feel disgusted at all.
"Momo, you haven't bought the tapes yet, right? I have a lot of them. I'll bring you a few tapes someday. When you finish listening to them, I'll bring you other ones to exchange for them. You don't have to spend money to buy tapes."
Yun Mo hadn't originally planned to buy English tapes.
She had passed the Level 8 Professional English Test in her previous life, and the difficulty of English in this era was not high, so she didn't need to study by listening to tapes.
But she did not reject her friend's kindness. Even though she couldn't use it, someone else could.

Commercial street, Xianglai women's clothing store.
Today is the opening day of Yun Yao's clothing store. In order to have a good start, Yun Yao started to let the staff distribute flyers everywhere for promotion a few days ago. The effect is quite good. Customers have been coming in an endless stream since this morning.
The clothes in Yunyao's store are novel and fashionable, with favorable prices and free gifts. It can be said that they have firmly grasped the consumption psychology of women. Dozens of pieces were sold in just half a day.
While selling clothes, Yun Yao took the opportunity to sell membership cards to customers.
You can become a member of Xianglaier by spending 30 yuan or paying 1 yuan. Members can not only enjoy a 15% discount all year round, but also earn 1 point for every 1 yuan spent, and the value of 1 point is equal to 0.1 cent.
The reason why the clothing store was named Chanel was to imitate "Chanel".
With the advantage of being reborn, Yun Yao knew that within a few years, the Chanel brand would become popular all over the world and become the darling of wealthy ladies and celebrities.
She also wants to take advantage of this trend and establish her own well-known women's clothing brand.
"Yun Yao, your business is too popular, isn't it?"
At three o'clock in the afternoon, when Zhong Xiaoya was invited to visit Yun Yao's clothing store, she saw the bustling scene and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"It's not bad. From this morning till now, I've only sold about 50 or 60 pieces of clothing."
Yun Yao spoke modestly, but she could not hide the smugness and pride in her expression.
Zhong Xiaoya was born into a well-off family. Her parents were ordinary workers in a state-owned factory, and their combined monthly income was only sixty or seventy yuan.
Are a few dozen yuan a lot? You country bumpkin.
Yun Yao secretly despised Zhong Xiaoya's pettiness, but she didn't show it on her face.
"I make more than one dollar from one piece of clothing, but it's not a lot either. There are discounts, free gifts, and a lot of publicity in the early stages. It's a small business, so it's nothing. My dad's company is a big business. One project can easily make tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars in profit."
The envy in Zhong Xiaoya's eyes greatly satisfied Yun Yao's sense of superiority and vanity.
She was in a good mood and generously pointed to the shelf where scarves were placed in the store, "Xiaoya, I'll give you a scarf. You can choose the style and color you like."
Zhong Xiaoya rolled her eyes, hugged Yun Yao's arm and begged, "Can you change to something else? I have several scarves at home."
"What do you want?"
"I'm in need of a coat. I've grown a lot in the past two years, and my old coats are too tight. Yunyao, the coats in your store are all very nice, so why not give me one?"
The cost of a scarf is about 1 yuan, and the cost of a coat is at least 10 yuan, or even more expensive.
Yun Yao was very unhappy with Zhong Xiaoya's lack of tact and greed.
But the words had already been said, and she couldn't take them back, so she could only agree to Zhong Xiaoya's request.
Zhong Xiaoya happily chose a pink tweed coat.
The colors of clothes in this era were mostly monotonous, but pink wool coats like the one sold by Yun Yao were particularly popular. They were almost sold out in half a day, and the only one left was the one in Zhong Xiaoya's hand.
Coincidentally, at the same time that Zhong Xiaoya made her selection, another customer also chose this one.
One is for free, the other is bought with real money, even a fool knows what to do.
Unfortunately, Zhong Xiaoya did not have such awareness. She just said, "I chose it first" and prepared to leave with the clothes.
Yun Yao couldn't help but stepped forward to stop Zhong Xiaoya, but she didn't get angry. Instead, she smiled and persuaded: "Xiaoya, please let go of this dress. I will help you pick out another one."
“But I like this one.”
Perhaps realizing Yun Yao's displeasure, Zhong Xiaoya immediately said, "I can give up this dress, but you have to compensate me. Well, just give me another scarf, right?"
Yun Yao couldn't hold back her smile. "Didn't you say you have a lot of scarves at home?"
"Oh, everything at home is old. Of course, I need a new scarf to match my new clothes."
In front of the customers, Yun Yao didn't want to make the situation awkward, so she had to agree with a smile.
After Zhong Xiaoya chose her coat and scarf, she immediately found an excuse to take her out of the store.
Zhong Xiaoya was extremely happy as she got the beautiful tweed coat and scarf for free without spending a penny. Although Yun Yao had a smile on her face, she was very upset at heart.
But the things have already been given away, and she has to find a way to earn them back.
Thinking about this, Yun Yao said to Zhong Xiaoya, "Xiaoya, you have to bring more friends to take care of the business in my store in the future."
Zhong Xiaoya readily agreed, "No problem, when I wear the new clothes out, they will definitely ask me where I bought them, and I will introduce them to your store."
After hearing this, Yun Yao finally felt better.
Unfortunately, before I could get better for half a minute, I heard Zhong Xiaoya ask, "What discount will you give me if I bring a friend with me?"
