The more Mu's mother looked through the pages, the more she felt that her daughter-in-law was a genius.
How did this genius come up with these ideas? These clothes may be daring, but they definitely don't detract from the wearer's beauty.
If Mu's mother were 20 years younger, no, even 10 years younger, she might try on these clothes.
She can't wear it herself, but she has a daughter-in-law, so she can make it for her.
Lin Chuchu immediately realized her thoughts and waved her hands repeatedly to refuse, "Mom, you can't make it for me. I'm a researcher, so my clothes should be more mature and dignified."
"It's fine if you don't wear it outside. You can wear it secretly at home, in front of Mu Chen."
It would absolutely make her silly son ecstatic.
Lin Chuchu was stunned by her words, then her face turned red. How could her mother be so explicit?
But just thinking about that scene made Lin Chuchu's heart pound. Maybe she could give it a try.
As soon as the thought crossed her mind, she immediately suppressed it. No, no, she couldn't let her mother lead her astray.
I'm so embarrassed, so ashamed.
Mu's mother didn't think it was a big deal. After all, Mu Chen and Lin Chuchu were husband and wife. They couldn't be too close in public, but what was wrong with being a little bolder in private?
Anyway, she had already decided to make a few more for her daughter-in-law.
These manuscripts cannot be kept in the shop, not even in a safe.
Their shop has been making a lot of money over the years, which has long attracted the envy of others.
If it weren't for these two retired security guards, the shop might have been destroyed or robbed long ago.
Not only people from other shops, but even some of the shop's employees were incredibly jealous.
He tried to get information out of her many times, but she wasn't stupid. Those regular customers were all people he had worked hard to bring in; how could they be taken away by someone else for no reason?
Therefore, the turnover rate of service staff in the store is very high, and they have changed several times.
She put the manuscript in her backpack; it was safest to leave it at home.
The two discussed many things about the future development of the shop until after 3 p.m. before going home.
The room is warm now, not cold at all. Grandma and Aunt Li went to buy a lot of groceries.
Mu Chen had been busy for the past few days, but he didn't have to work overtime today and was able to leave work at a normal time. So, after get off work, he went straight back to the courtyard house.
It's winter now, so we set up the table in the living room for meals.
If only it were spring or autumn, they could eat and admire the moon in the courtyard, and even have a drink.
However, eating in the room was fine. After dinner, the children clamored to watch TV, but all the important things from home had been moved to the family compound, and now there was nothing left.
The two children didn't start playing until their grandmother brought over other toys.
Having young children at home can be quite noisy, but that's life, isn't it?
How boring it would be without children.
Everyone stayed in the courtyard for two days before returning home on the third day of the Lunar New Year.
Wang Qiao and Mu's father wanted to make lanterns, so they brought back two bamboo stalks.
Both of them are very skillful, but Wang Qiao mainly does the work, while Mu's father can only help out occasionally in the evenings.
With lanterns, candles are of course needed.
Since the lanterns are meant to be sold, only a little candle is needed for each one. Once the candles are used up, the buyers can add more themselves.
The lanterns are all relatively small; they didn't want to make any too big, so they made them very quickly.
By the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, when Lin Chuchu went to work, she had already completed quite a bit.
Besides selling them in the residential compound, they also planned to deliver the lanterns to their shops and place them at the front gate of the shops in the evening.
However, that will have to wait until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Before they knew it, it was the Lantern Festival. The researchers were given a special holiday, and Lin Chuchu took Xiao Lu for a stroll in the family compound.
As soon as I got near the front door, I saw my grandmother sitting at the door with several children, each with a small lantern next to them.
Meanwhile, a lantern corridor was made of rope, and at this moment, the candles inside are lit, casting dappled light and shadow on the ground, which looks very beautiful.
Many people admired the lanterns under the lanterns, and every now and then children would beg to buy one. But when it came time to actually choose one, they didn't know which pattern to pick.
Wang Qiao and Aunt Li were entertaining guests when they saw Lin Chuchu return, and they quickly greeted her.
Wang Qiao gave one to each of Lin Chuchu, Xiao Lu, and Captain Qin, and also replaced the candles with new ones.
"The candles inside will burn for a while. I'll prepare a spare candle for you so you can replace it when needed."
This was meant to make money. Xiao Lu and Team Leader Qin didn't want it, but Wang Qiao forced it into their hands.
Lin Chuchu didn't stand on ceremony. The three of them thanked the other party and then gave up on other places.
The management of the residential compound was exceptionally lax today, and many families set up tables at the entrance of the compound, with homemade food on them.
Those with the inclination to make dumplings started making boiled meatballs, six per serving, with some homemade ingredients inside, and they tasted quite good.
There were also stalls making steamed buns, pancakes, and wontons. Most of them were closed today. Many adults were strolling around with their children, and there were also some young couples or newlyweds holding hands as if they were shopping.
"It's so lively! This is the first time I've ever seen so many people here."
"It seems like everyone above has been given leave. The soldiers at the military base have nothing to do, so they've come over for a stroll."
Lin Chuchu and Xiao Lu were chatting quietly when suddenly others heard a commotion.
"You have so little stuff here, and it's so expensive. How can you be so shameless? Aren't you robbing people? You capitalists are bullying people."
Lin Chuchu raised an eyebrow; that familiar tone reminded her of someone.
Sure enough, as soon as she turned her head, she saw that annoying Aunt Niu.
At that moment, the other person stood with their hands on their hips, cursing at a woman selling things.
Once her true colors were exposed, she stopped pretending.
Now that my son's military rank has been reduced and his salary has decreased, how can he bear to spend so much on these things?
So, at each stall, he had to haggle over the price, even if he knew it was very cheap.
Now, upon arriving at this stall, the woman selling the goods looked displeased, cursed under her breath, and retorted defiantly.
"Don't talk nonsense. This price is much cheaper than the price in the capital. Besides, everyone is charging this price, so why should I lower my price?"
"Buy it or don't, don't stand in my way."
The older sister-in-law didn't mince words either. Most importantly, she knew the person in front of her wasn't a good person, and she couldn't let him bully her.
Aunt Niu was stunned for several seconds before she came to her senses, not expecting the other party to speak to her so rudely.
She was about to sit on the ground and throw a tantrum when her sister-in-law, who had seen through everything, coldly said...
“There are temporary law enforcement officers over there. If you want to provoke them, then go ahead and cause trouble.”
After saying that, he turned his head and ignored her.
