Yun Mo was secretly depressed about her weight gain and was completely unaware that the man was staring at her face greedily.
Under the light, the woman's fair face was whiter and more translucent than the ceramic cup in her hand. Her beautiful eyes and eyebrows made her look like a fairy walking out of a painting, so delicate that she didn't look like a real person.
Yun Mo waited for a long time but the man didn't speak. She raised her eyes and met the man's deep and burning gaze.
Her heart beat slightly and her cheeks grew hot.
She cleared her throat, breaking the quiet and ambiguous atmosphere in the room, "Did your trip to Urumqi go smoothly this time?"
Ling Chuan came back to his senses, "Fortunately, I encountered some setbacks when I went to the garment factory to pick up the goods..."
He skipped over the robbery incident and simply recounted how Rong Zhengchang intended to cheat him out of ten items.
"Wife, thanks to your reminder, I called the number on the note he gave me, but it turned out to be a fake number and I couldn't get through. I kept my guard up afterwards, otherwise, I might have really been fooled by him."
Yun Mo chuckled and said, "Remember, when an unfamiliar person asks you to make money for no reason, there are only three purposes. One is that he wants to make money from you, two is that he wants you to help him make money, and three is that he wants to cheat you."
"Wife, I've got it in mind. If I encounter this kind of situation again, I'll be more careful. But this time, it's thanks to the old man named Rong that I was able to get back such a good batch of goods. Wife, I'm going to sell these goods at the clothing market. What do you think?"
Yun Mo shook her head. "This batch of goods is excellent in both quality and style. You can't sell them at a high price on the street. Besides, there is already a clothing market there. If you sell at a lower price than in the market, it will be tantamount to disrupting the market. It may cause dissatisfaction and boycott from the vendors in the market. If you sell at a high price, customers will not buy it.
For similar items at the same price, it is better to buy them in regular stores rather than at street stalls, where the after-sales service is guaranteed.”
Ling Chuan suddenly realized, "Wife, you are right. Where should we sell these clothes?"
Yun Mo snapped her fingers. "Tomorrow you go to the commercial street and find those clothing stores or shoe stores that are doing poorly. Rent half of a shop from them for only one month. It doesn't matter if you pay a higher rent. Once you have rented the shop, I will tell you the next plan."
"good!"
Yun Mo turned her head and looked at the alarm clock on the desk. "It's getting late. If you have nothing else to do, go back to your room and go to bed early."
"Wife, there is one more thing I need to discuss with you. It is about my eldest brother and his wife."
Perhaps because he was worried that Ling Chunhua in the side room might hear it, Ling Chuan instinctively lowered his voice.
"When we were in Wushi, my eldest brother discussed it with me. He wanted my eldest sister-in-law to take Ling Jiale away..."
Yun Mo was not surprised at all to learn that Ling Jiang was planning to divorce, and that after the divorce, as long as Li Li did not remarry, he would continue to bear the living expenses of Li Li and Ling Jiale. Ling Jiang had a simple and honest nature, and he had been married to Li Li for so many years, and their love for each other was obvious.
What's more, Li Li is Ling Chunhua's biological mother, it is impossible for her to just ignore her.
However, Yun Mo was quite curious about who Ling Jiale's biological father was.
Although Li Li is greedy for money and profit, she is not the kind of woman who is promiscuous.
The next morning, Ling Jiang first sent his daughter Ling Chunhua to kindergarten, and then returned to the small courtyard in the old street.
"dad!"
Before I even reached the door of my house, I heard Ling Jiale's voice from afar.
Ling Jiang raised his head and looked at his son who was running towards him happily, and his heart was suddenly filled with mixed feelings.
At this time in the past, he would have walked over with a smile, picked up his son and kissed him non-stop, but today he subconsciously stood there in a daze.
"Daddy, hug me!"
Ling Jiale was obviously dissatisfied with his coldness and raised his chubby little face to ask for a hug.
Ling Jiang hesitated for a moment, put the things in his two hands together into one hand, and then picked up the other person with the other hand.
"Jia Le, when did you come back?"
"yesterday."
"It's clothes."
"Whose clothes are they?"
"Dad's clothes."
While chatting, the father and son walked to the door of their home.
Li Li put her hands in her sleeves, leaned against the door frame, and looked at him with a bad expression, "Where have you been these days?"
Ling Jiang did not answer but asked, "Why are you back?"
Li Li lost her temper when she heard this, "We haven't divorced yet, and this is my home, why can't I come back?"
Ling Jiang didn't want to argue with her and was about to go home, but suddenly Li Li snatched the thing in his hand away.
"What are those things? Two big bulging bags."
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Li Li muttered as she opened the bag. Seeing that it was full of brand new clothes, she subconsciously asked, "Did you buy new clothes? Any Jiale's? Jiale has grown a lot this year, and last year's clothes are too tight for him."
"I didn't buy them. Chuanzi gave them to me. They are all my size."
Li Li was unhappy when she heard this, "Chuanzi is too partial. He has such a big family, but he only gives you clothes to wear. We are all outsiders, right?"
Ling Jiang bent down and put Ling Jiale down, and couldn't help explaining, "These clothes were bought by Chuanzi for business, they are for adults, not Jiale."
"Since it's an adult's, I can always wear it, right? Is there a share for me?"
"You buy clothes every year, but you never wear them all. Chuanzi brings these clothes back to make money. If you just give them away casually, how can you continue your business?"
Li Li curled her lips, "What's wrong with giving me a few pieces? His business is so prosperous now, can't he afford to give me a few pieces of clothing?"
Ling Jiang was too lazy to say more and took the clothes back from Li Li's hand. "Let's talk about it when we get home."
Looking at Ling Jiang's tall and burly back, Li Li's eyes rolled, and she pulled Ling Jiale to her side and whispered a few words to him.
After hearing this, Ling Jiale happily chased after Ling Jiang, "Dad, I want to eat candied haws, I want to eat candied haws!"
Looking at his son who was clutching his clothes and acting like a spoiled child, Ling Jiang hesitated for a moment, then turned to signal Li Li, "Take Jiale outside to buy some candied haws."
"You're just good at talking, why don't you bring the money?"
Ling Jiang took out a handful of change from his pocket and asked, "How much?"
Li Li stepped forward and snatched all the small change from his hand, then pulled Ling Jiale towards the door.
Ling Jiang's lips moved, but in the end he said nothing.
After walking out of the house, Li Li slowed down and lowered her head to count the money in her hand.
After counting, he found that there were only a little over four yuan. He immediately curled his lips in disgust, took out a one-cent note and handed it to Ling Jiale, and put the rest in his pocket.
She wouldn't have come back if she had been out of money.
This amount of money is not enough to fill the gaps in my teeth. No, I have to find a way to get some more money and then take my son back to my mother's home to celebrate the New Year.
Li Li secretly made up her mind.
