Holding the two little babies, Su Xueli thought of her son and daughter from her previous life, as if she were holding them.
Actually, Su Xueli wasn't a good mother in her past life.
A man who doesn't like a woman, nor the children she bears. Wei Mingshen is like that.
But Su Xueli was only interested in pleasing her husband. She went along with whatever her husband did to the two children and never spoke up for them.
Both children were afraid of their father from birth, and like her, they were very cautious in front of Wei Mingshen.
She knew that later, when her two children grew up, they both resented her for it.
The next day, Wei Mingshen and Su Xueli brought the straw weaving products from the past few days to the county department store and found Manager Wang.
Manager Wang was incredibly excited when he saw the two of them, as if he had found a lost treasure.
He said hurriedly, "Sherry, why haven't you come for so many days? All those straw toys are sold out long ago. So many people are coming to the counter to ask when the goods will arrive... Hurry up, take out the goods you have and I'll count them and give you the money."
Su Xueli wasn't in a hurry to take it out. "Uncle, our goods have been upgraded, so the price has naturally gone up as well. See if you can accept it."
After saying that, he took out a set of straw-woven artworks depicting the story of Journey to the West to show him.
Manager Wang was astonished when he saw her: This lady is amazing!
He touched each of the colorful little figures one by one: Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Tang Sanzang, Sha Wujing, the White Bone Demon, Red Boy... each one was so lifelike and vivid.
Su Xueli and Wei Mingshen exchanged a smile, waiting for him to give them a price.
Manager Wang finally looked up from the straw toys and asked the young couple, "Xueli, Xiao Wei, are you selling these in sets? What's the wholesale price for a set?"
Wei Mingshen gestured for Su Xueli to speak.
Su Xueli said sincerely to Manager Wang, "Uncle, to be honest, we first gave these colorful sets of straw woven fabrics to the city department store, and of course they were very popular."
But I can't forget my uncle, and I have to continue supplying him with goods. So I came here today to ask if the consumption level of our county department store can reach the level of the city.
As you can see, this complete set is not only more finely woven but also colored, increasing the cost and naturally making it much more expensive. We sell it to people in the city for 13 yuan a set. Is that acceptable to you?
Su Xueli hesitated for a moment, wondering if she should ask Manager Wang for a discount of 1 yuan as a friendly price.
"Sherry, how many sets did you bring over today?"
Su Xueli exchanged a glance with Wei Mingshen and answered him, "Ten sets."
"I want them all."
Su Xueli was genuinely surprised, thinking he would try to bargain, or that the price was too high and inappropriate.
"Uncle, is the price okay?" She was still a little uneasy.
Wei Mingshen nudged her with his leg and said, "You get what you pay for. Your uncle has a good eye for things."
Manager Wang laughed and said, "Yes, yes, Xiao Wei is right. I've been a manager for over ten years, so I know what I'm doing."
"Here you go, my dear Shirley, keep the money safe. Your uncle has a request for you. Could you supply goods to your uncle's place as much as possible in the future? Of course, our county is not as big as the city, and the consumption level and market are not as good as the city, but how about you guarantee that I will not run out of goods here before supplying the city?"
“Of course, Uncle.” Su Xueli readily agreed.
Since the price is the same, why bother spending a few cents more on transportation to the city?
Su Xueli happily left the department store with the money. She discussed with Wei Mingshen, "I need to go back to my parents' home today to see how my cousin's situation is going."
Also, I miss my parents and want to stay at my parents' house for a couple of days. When I get home, I'll take some thatch back to my parents' house.
She could ask her parents to help cut the thatch, weave it, and then take it back to Wei Mingshen to color it.
Wei Mingshen raised the corner of his mouth. "You're going to see him, aren't you?"
The smell of vinegar is overwhelming.
Su Xueli went along with it, "Yes. You can go see her too."
Wei Mingshen snorted coldly, "I'm not like you."
