Uncle Ge and Aunt Yuan went around early the next day to look at the styles being sold. At that time, the goods were not yet sold out and there were not many people buying. The two of them walked around the whole day without looking at anything and felt that they were all the same.
The couple went to the old man's house and said, "Brother, we have been looking for a lot of things for the whole day. Just buy some for us. First, three pairs of socks for men and women, and one pair of underwear for men and women."
Aunt Yuan gritted her teeth, stamped her feet, and reported a number loudly. How could all these be sold?
"Okay, then I'll watch you go in." The old man understood that it was his first time doing business.
In fact, a pair of socks can be worn for three seasons, and they are not out-of-date. They can just buy some in their shop to sell together, and give away a pair of socks for every extra purchase, which can also retain repeat customers.
The third brother and the old man went south again the next afternoon.
These days, Mancang has been handling Xiaoyu's adoption procedures, registering her, and looking for a school for her.
Xiaoyu is a bit old now. Normally, she should be in grade 6, but she has never been to school before. She needs to be tested first before the school can arrange a class for her.
Xiaoyu is okay with literacy and arithmetic, but she has very little exposure to subjects like multiplication and division, word problems, geography, and history. In the end, the school asked her to start from the third grade, and if she does well, she can skip a grade.
After several days of hard work, Mancang finally sent Xiaoyu to school, and old man Guan felt relieved.
After the old man passed away, he was not at home. He went out every evening and no longer carried the torn sack.
The old lady didn't stay at home for long. She discussed with Liu Cuihua and bought a lot of things for the wedding and went back to her hometown.
The bride's room in my hometown needs to be decorated, relatives and friends need to be notified, furniture needs to be bought for the bride, quilts and bride clothes need to be made, betrothal gifts need to be given, and a banquet needs to be arranged...
A lot of people were waiting for the old lady. She brought her aunt back to help her, and Mantun and Liu Cuihua were responsible for paying the money.
There were two more people in the family, but it didn't matter much. Xiaoyu was very understanding. She took the two nephews to and from school without having to pick them up by the full house. After school, she let the two nephews read books and do homework, and she helped with cooking.
Xiaoyu refused to listen to anything Wu Zhiqiu said. She agreed to quit and continued to do whatever she had to do the next day without taking it to heart.
Old Guan didn't get involved. It takes time to get to know each other. It's not like you can't develop feelings immediately just by calling each other names. He ate and drank as he should, and even ordered food. In a few days, he became fatter and more human. As long as he didn't treat himself as an outsider, he would be very comfortable.
Wu Zhiqiu saw the person she had been thinking about, He Meina.
He Meina had caused such great harm to the third brother in her previous life that Wu Zhiqiu was somewhat obsessed with her. He especially wanted to see how her life would be without the third brother as her scapegoat in this life.
When Wu Zhiqiu entered the compound after get off work, he saw He Meina hiding under the gate of the next yard, stretching her neck and looking over here.
His face was pale, his body had lost a lot of weight, and he looked very disheveled, but he looked even more pitiful and lovable.
He Meina saw Wu Zhiqiu looking at her and subconsciously turned her back. She only wanted to find Wu Xing'an now and didn't want to have any contact with anyone in his family.
