Feeling more confident after receiving affirmation from an "authoritative figure," Yan Yan blushed and asked, "Then what does my uncle think I should do?"
Manager Wang chuckled and said, "I can't give you advice on that. Tell me what you want to do and I'll listen."
Yan Yan then mentioned Su Xueli's idea of having her buy daily necessities. Manager Wang strongly agreed: "That's a good idea. People in rural areas are becoming more discerning now, and these things have become necessities. However, the market competition is not fierce yet. If you do it, you will definitely make money."
Yan Yan asked, "Can my uncle help with the procurement?"
Manager Wang said, "That's perfectly fine. I'm in charge of the entire department store's procurement. I can give you some special treatment and get you more stock when you go shopping. At our department store's wholesale prices, you can earn more than those street vendors."
"Oh, that's wonderful!" Yan Yan exclaimed excitedly.
Su Xueli said, "Yanyan, this is what they call having a powerful backer. Hurry up and thank our uncle. I'm benefiting from your help too."
Yan Yan nodded repeatedly and said, "That's right, thank you so much, Uncle. Let's go back first, I'll talk to my parents when I get home."
Su Xueli was in a hurry to go home to do straw weaving, and Yan Yan was in a hurry to go home to discuss business with her parents. They hurriedly said goodbye to Manager Wang and left the department store to go home.
Su Xueli pulled Yan Yan aside and said, "Yan Yan, I'll buy two more pounds of pastries to take back to my husband's house."
After all, we used our father-in-law's thatch, so we should show our appreciation for making money.
Wei Mingshen had just finished eating and was about to go out to play cards when Su Xueli rode in on her bicycle. He was secretly delighted, but pretended to be calm and asked, "You're back."
"You're back." Su Xueli pushed her bicycle into the house.
"Give it to me, give it to me." He took the bicycle and pushed it into the house.
"Oh, Shirley's back!" Her in-laws heard the noise and ran out of their room.
"You're back, Dad and Mom. I brought you some pastries." Su Xueli took out the bag of pastries.
The parents-in-law looked anxious. "You silly child, why did you bring things home? And so many nice pastries! Don't take them anymore, take them to your parents' house next time."
Su Xueli held the gift in both hands and handed it to her mother-in-law: "Mom, there's a portion for my parents too. This is for you. Hurry up and try it."
Cao Maizi still felt bad and hesitated to accept it, but Wei Tiezhu said, "It's a gift from our wife, so hurry up and take it."
"What kind of pastries? Let me have some." Wei Mingshen parked his car and came out of the house.
Su Xueli rolled her eyes at him, "I'm not giving you any."
The elderly couple laughed, and Wei Mingshen grinned as well. His smile almost made Su Xueli's heart flutter again.
She hurriedly went inside.
She took off her hat and gloves, and prepared the scissors and stool, ready to quickly start making straw weaving.
When Wei Mingshen came in from his parents' room while eating pastries, he saw her sitting on a stool weaving toys again, with a pile of straw at her feet. He asked curiously, "Why are you weaving again? Where did all those toys you wove the other day go?"
Su Xueli glanced at the pastries in his hand. "They're not in your hand."
Wei Mingshen narrowed his eyes. "Are you kidding me? I'm eating pastries, not straw."
"It was traded for thatch."
"What?! These pastries were swapped for thatch?!"
