Chapter 289: The best news of the New Year
Chen Jintao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Have you forgotten how your eldest brother and I got together?"
Speaking of this, Huo Nanxi really wanted to dig a hole in the ground and bury herself in it. God knows how uncomfortable she feels now when she thinks about the cold words she once said to her sister-in-law.
"Not everyone is like you and my elder brother. You two are the most suitable couple. It's inevitable that you will be together..."
The more she spoke, the softer her voice became. After all, at the beginning she was still unwilling to acknowledge this sister-in-law.
Fortunately, the elders in the family were out chatting with neighbors. If Liu Guifen had been here and heard what her daughter-in-law had just said, she would probably have been scared to death.
After all, everyone now knows that Chen Jintao's words are most effective at home, and the daughter listens to her sister-in-law the most. If Chen Jintao really passed this concept to Huo Nanxi, this girl might really follow it as if it were an imperial decree.
"But if you don't try, how will you know who is the most suitable person for you? Of course, I'm not urging you to find a partner. I just think that if you can meet someone who suits your heart in the future, you can also try to get in touch with a young girl. You don't have to stay in the kitchen every day. If you continue like this, you will soon be marinated by the smoke and smell of the kitchen."
Everyone laughed when these words were spoken. Huo Beichuan looked at his wife chatting happily with her friends, and started chatting with the brothers who came with the women.
The women basically could not understand what the men were talking about. After all, they were all soldiers and they were talking about national affairs, so it created a somewhat awkward but inexplicably funny scene.
The women sat together chatting about gossip and daily necessities, while the men sat aside chatting about national affairs and the latest news. In the yard there were the sounds of children running and playing, as well as the occasional admonitions from Shen Jidong and Huo Dongsheng.
However, they did not stay with Shen Jintao for too long. After all, there were still a lot of things to do and people to visit today, so at about 10 o'clock, the group got up and said goodbye.
Chen Jintao and several women took out red envelopes from their pockets at almost the same time, and they couldn't help laughing when they looked at each other.
Everyone took out several red envelopes, and the children from the families who had a good time also prepared some.
Although the scene was a bit funny, they still distributed the red envelopes to the children for the New Year. Of course, they wanted to let the children experience the joy of receiving New Year's money. As for whether the money could stay in their hands in the end, that was unknown.
Gu Haijun received several red envelopes, which made him feel a little embarrassed as he always thought he was an adult, but he just couldn't postpone it.
What Chen Jintao didn't expect was that the biggest gift she received during this year's Chinese New Year actually came from overseas.
The bill sent by Lowe was so good-looking, because before the New Year, Chen Jintao gave them a batch of newly designed winter clothing designs, and these were designed according to the styles that foreigners prefer, and they were very popular after they were received there.
And because the styles designed this time were indeed eye-catching enough, Lowe's clothing company became completely popular.
And Lowe is a man with a very good business sense, otherwise he would not have insisted on cooperating with Shen Jintao.
He actually held a fashion show in the United States and found some ladies with particularly good body proportions to wear those clothes and walk the runway.
Of course, the clothes that can be exhibited have some very unique features in design, and they are also specially selected by Lowe as limited edition clothing.
The economy abroad is better than that in China, and there are many people pursuing quality. Once limited edition products appear, they will often be sought after by wealthy people.
Although Shen Jintao thought Lowe's pricing was ridiculously expensive, and even comparable to that of some luxury brands in the future, she had to admit that Lowe's move greatly increased the clothing company's profits, and because of this, Shen Jintao's share was much more than she had estimated.
Chen Jintao's eyes lit up as she looked at the bill, and she happily went to Huo Beichuan to report the good news.
Huo Beichuan discovered that his wife was becoming more and more powerful, and her overseas clothing business actually made more money than that in China.
Obviously, the share that his wife got was very small, so one can imagine how much Lowe gained after getting the clothing design drawings from his wife.
"You just gave the design drawings to foreigners. If we had known that those designs were so powerful, we would have kept them for our own people to use."
Huo Beichuan said with a smile. Although he said so, there was no complaint in his tone. Instead, there was a hint of pride.
"You don't understand design, what are you talking about? The clothes I designed for Lowe are more suitable for foreigners' aesthetics. If they were put in our country, they might not sell at all."
How could Huo Beichuan not understand this truth? I just want to tease my wife.
"Yes! Or my wife wants to know that it has helped our country earn foreign exchange!"
Now that there are so many people at home taking care of the children, the couple are of course no longer needed. They were originally looking at the account books in the study. Huo Beichuan directly pulled her into his arms, and Shen Jintao fell into her husband's lap unexpectedly.
Even though Chen Jintao fell directly onto it, Huo Beichuan was still steady, his legs didn't even shake. Even just by sitting on it, Chen Jintao could feel the strength of his legs.
"What are you doing?" Shen Jintao reached out and pinched Huo Beichuan's cheek.
Huo Beichuan really didn't dare to do anything in broad daylight, but he still held his wife in his arms and kissed her hard.
Chen Jintao panted and pushed Huo Beichuan away, glaring at him fiercely, "You can't even explain something to you clearly, are you a man of the dog sign? You bite people at every turn?"
"I only nibbled you because my wife was able to earn foreign exchange. I felt proud and I couldn't control myself for a moment."
Chen Jintao was almost speechless. She didn't believe the nonsense of this bastard. "Don't say this outside. People will laugh at you if you tell them. I didn't earn foreign exchange for our country. The money ended up in my own hands."
Although Shen Jintao also loves her country, making money is another matter.
"It's the same," Huo Beichuan was still full of pride, "Anyway, this money has landed on our land, this is your ability!"
