Chapter 378 Getting Rich
After Huang Ling and Zhou Huaiyi left, Xiaoting moved into Song Ying's house.
This is the first time in recent years that Xiaoting has been separated from her mother for such a long time, and she feels a little nervous.
Huang Ling and Zhou Huaiyi called her every day.
When Xiaoting answered the phone on the first day, she handed the phone to Song Ying without saying a word, and Song Ying hung up without saying a word.
Dongzhe asked, “I haven’t said it yet!”
Xiao Ting shook her head and said, "My mom's voice is hoarse. Don't say anymore. Call me tomorrow and tell me."
Dongzhe nodded quickly: "Oh, that was roaring."
"What are you yelling about?" Xiaoting asked.
"Then the exhibition is just like the sale in the department store, right? Come on, take a look at our night light. It will keep you from falling when you get up at night, and it doesn't consume much electricity!" Dongzhe imitated it.
Xiao Ting chuckled: "I guess so. They must have talked all day anyway. She's a talkative person to begin with, and Uncle Lin is even more talkative. If Uncle Lin calls later, you should say less."
"I see. Isn't my dad with them right now?" Dongzhe asked.
Song Ying said, "Your dad is sorting out samples and hasn't returned to his residence yet. Your aunt called first because she was afraid it would be too late. If your dad comes home early, he will definitely call again. If he's too late, forget it."
"Oh, then you don't have to fight. You'll probably be exhausted." Dongzhe nodded.
Song Ying hugged Xiaoting in one hand and her son in the other, and went home with them in her arms.
Before I reached the front of the yard, I heard a "tsk" sound behind me.
Song Ying looked back and saw that it was Zhang A'mei.
She let go of Dongzhe, and Dongzhe took two quick steps to open the gate, and the three of them made way for him.
Zhang Min followed Zhang A-mei a few steps away.
After getting her diploma at the end of June, Zhang Min stayed at home for a few months. Sometimes she said she was going to work as a hairdresser, and sometimes she said she was going south with her friends to find a job. This made Zhang A'mei very anxious, so she finally took her to the silk reeling workshop where she worked.
Zhang Min couldn't persuade her mother and had to go to work with her.
She complained to her friends that her mother was suffering from the disease of thermae and that she was living in hell.
After the mother and daughter started working together, Zhang A-mei felt more at ease. At least when others asked about her, she knew that Zhang Min was no longer an unemployed vagrant.
Zhang Min returned home, changed her clothes and was ready to go out.
Before leaving, he went to the backyard to find Wu Jianguo: "Dad, give me some money so I can go out and play with my friends."
Wu Jianguo sighed and said, "How much do you want?"
"Ten dollars."
"Ten dollars! Xiao Min, you asked me for five dollars last week, and now you want ten more. You know how much I earn, but we still have to live and pay our bills. We need money everywhere, and you're already working and earning money, so why are you still asking for money from your family?"
Wu Jianguo was a little dissatisfied. He originally thought that life at home would be better after Zhang Min started working, but Zhang Min spent more money than when she was in school.
"I've been told I'm useless! The money I earn isn't even enough to buy me new clothes. What's the use? Nichang's clothes are getting more and more expensive. I can't afford them! I haven't even bought my autumn clothes yet!"
"You stupid girl! Who told you to buy clothes from her store? There are no other department stores!" Zhang A'mei heard the two talking in the backyard and rushed out to curse.
"My friends all wear Nichang clothes! Nothing else is as fashionable and beautiful as Nichang. Look at Xiaoting's clothes, they are different from others."
Zhang Min just saw Xiaoting wearing Nishang’s latest autumn jacket and was very envious.
Wu Jianguo said earnestly, "Xiao Min, since making money is not easy, you should save it. You can't live a rich life by earning ordinary people's money! Your mother and I are counting on you in the future!"
"If you want to live a good life, you shouldn't drive Wu Shanshan away! She is the one who works hard and makes a lot of money!" Zhang Min stabbed Wu Jianguo's heart again and again.
Wu Jianguo stared at her in a daze, speechless.
"Why do you need money? If you don't feel tired at work, just work overtime to earn more money. Where are you going?" Zhang A'mei asked dissatisfiedly.
"Don't bother me! I'm an adult and don't need you to bother me! If you keep bothering me, I'll be like Wu Shanshan and Wu Jun, I'll disappear and you'll never find me again!" Zhang Min said gritting her teeth.
Wu Jianguo stopped talking, but he didn't show any intention of taking the money. He lowered his head and continued doing his work.
It was even harder to get Zhang A-mei's money, so Zhang Min gave up and rushed out of the house.
Zhang A-mei walked over and discussed with Wu Jianguo:
"Hey, do you think you should find Xiao Min a boyfriend? That way she can settle down and date for a year or two, then get ready. She'll be old enough to get married."
Wu Jianguo didn't even raise his head:
"You decide. I don't know anyone decent. Besides, she has to agree."
Zhang A-mei sneered: "When will I get close to you? I'll find it myself!"
Wu Jianguo felt a pain in his chest.
Yes! Wu Shanshan and Wu Jun didn’t ask him for a penny, and now they can still live well, but Zhang Min in front of him is clearly at work, but still asking him for money.
He then added, "If I hadn't stopped you from working at the hair salon, you wouldn't have to ask us for money now. You could make dozens of dollars a month, and even a hundred a month when business was good."
Zhang A'mei's disturbance blocked Zhang Min's way in this industry. Unless she opened her own shop, no shop would dare to hire her.
If you want to open your own shop, you have to learn the skills from others, so it is basically impossible.
Zhang Min passed by Song Ying's yard and heard several people in the house making "hehehe" sounds, not knowing what they were doing, so she looked over.
Xiaoting stood in the middle of the yard. Song Ying and Dongzhe were holding a broom and tongs respectively, and no one knew what they were catching.
"Hold it down, Mom!"
"Okay!"
Song Ying rushed forward and stomped on Dongzhe's broom.
"Okay, okay! Forget about the stove bugs, the broom is about to be crushed to pieces." Dongzhe said with a smile.
"Sweep the house again, and also the kitchen. These insects usually come from the kitchen. I'll use some mugwort leaves to fumigate them tomorrow." Song Ying instructed.
"Auntie, it's okay, I'm not afraid. If you see me, I'll step on it to death!" Xiaoting had just been driven to the middle of the yard by the two men. Now seeing the two men working hard to catch insects, she hurriedly said.
"It's okay, let Dongzhe step on it!" Song Ying walked to her side.
Dongzhe checked the house again and went to Li Yiming's house next door.
Yang Qiuyan was also driven out and stood next to Song Ying and Xiaoting. She was peeling an apple, so she cut the peeled apple into four and gave one to Song Ying and Xiaoting respectively.
She said, "It's probably hidden deep down. It will come out as soon as I light the fire to cook tomorrow."
Dongzhe came out of Li Yiming's room, put away the broom, and said while washing his hands: "Sister-in-law, it's okay. I'll be waiting by the side while you cook tomorrow. I'll kick them one by one!"
"Okay, it's up to you! I don't like these things either." Yang Qiuyan handed him the last piece of apple.
Zhang Min looked silently for a while and then walked out of the alley.
That day, Lin Wufeng came back very late and did not call again. The next day, he called Huang Ling and others together. He excitedly told Song Ying that the orders he received in one day were more than those in the previous quarter, including foreign trade orders.
Song Ying was confused. After hanging up the phone, she asked Dongzhe: "People from foreign countries also come to our town-run factory to buy things?"
"Yes! Why not! If the state-owned factories can sell it, of course we can too! Our factory has leading technology, good quality, low price and strong service. If not ours, whose will you buy?" Dongzhe said proudly.
"That's right," Song Ying murmured, "One day's orders are more than three months' orders. The orders for those seven days can be used to complete two years..."
"Auntie, this is just the beginning. After these customers place an order, if they like the product, they will keep buying from us!" Xiaoting said.
Song Ying and Dong Zhe looked at each other and said at the same time, "We're rich! Ahahahaha!"
