Zhou Xinxin just held the bowl of white porridge in front of her and buried herself in it.
Wen Sihe couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she picked up a piece of food for her and then peeled an egg and put it in her bowl!
After taking a couple of bites, Tuantuan said coldly, "I'm full, Grandma. Are you going to take me to school now?"
Lu Zhiye took a steamed bun, ate it in a few bites, and pinched the little guy's nape, saying, "Grandma has things to do, I'll drive you to school!"
Throughout the journey, Tuantuan remained silent, but Lu Zhiye took the initiative to speak: "I rescued this child. She was lying on the street, almost frozen to death."
Before she fainted, she grabbed my clothes. I will contact the neighborhood committee or the orphanage today.
Tuantuan, I know what you mean, but Mom is an adult, she has her own considerations, and it's wrong for you to question her like that!
Tuantuan sniffed, unusually showing her childlike side: "I'm sorry, Dad, I didn't know it was like this!"
I just can't stand anyone touching my little sister's things!
Imagine siblings vying for their parents' attention.
If my younger sister comes back next year, she'll see a little girl standing beside her parents, laughing and talking in her place!
How heartbroken she must be.
So if my mother has this idea, I will refuse!
I don't think our family needs any outsiders!
Lu Zhiye found it hard to believe that these words came from a child.
Such a young child already has such a decisive judgment; he truly deserves to be Lu Zhiye's son.
Lu Zhiye's smile deepened. When they arrived at the school gate, he personally escorted Tuantuan into the school, repeatedly assuring her, "Okay, I won't allow such a thing to happen!"
Meanwhile, Wen Sihe sat in a chair, her appetite gone.
Because Tuantuan has always been an obedient and sensible child, she has never lost her temper with me like this before.
Yan Wenqing noticed Wen Sihe's dilemma but didn't offer much advice. She believed her son had already discussed the matter with his wife.
Whether or not one can figure it out is another matter entirely.
Zhou Xinxin ate her meal cautiously, swallowing large mouthfuls as if it were her last.
Wen Sihe felt heartbroken seeing this.
She seems to have entered a dead end. Her family has no shortage of food or clothing. It's just a matter of a pair of chopsticks to raise a child. Why is her family so opposed to it?
The little girl's timid, pleading gaze almost melted Wen Sihe's heart.
The roar of a car engine came from outside, and Wen Sihe realized that her face felt cool. She quickly wiped away her tears.
Lu Zhiye walked in, bringing a chill with him: "Is everything ready? Come on, let's go to the neighborhood office first, then I'll take you to the clothing store!"
Zhou Xinxin's mouth was slightly open as she hid tightly behind Wen Sihe, unwilling to come out.
In the end, Lu Zhiye had to carry her to the car.
When I arrived at the subdistrict office, I was informed that there was a large meeting today and all staff would not be officially on duty until 10:30!
Lu Zhiye sighed: "Then let's go to the clothing store first!"
It was still pitch black outside. Yang Li and Wang Meilin were stamping their feet from the cold as they waited anxiously in front of the clothing store.
Upon seeing the car approaching, both of them broke into smiles!
Wen Sihe got out of the car, quickly opened the door, and led the two people inside: "It's so cold outside, why did you come here?"
"Sister Wen, we both took a day off today to help you out."
On the first day of business, there will inevitably be times when you're overwhelmed with tasks!
We can help attract customers by standing at the door!
Or perhaps you're helping customers pack their orders!
The way clothes are packaged now is nothing like in later times. At the market, clothes are put in plastic bags, while clothes from different brand stores are put in paper bags and handed to customers!
Nowadays, clothes, including those from supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores, are basically packaged in wrapping paper!
Wen Sihe recently commissioned a factory to customize a batch of paper bags!
However, the paper must also have a printed design, their store logo, and the paper must be of a certain thickness!
This is not something that can be figured out in a short time, so this batch of packaging has not yet been produced!
These days, we can only use wrapping paper as a substitute!
Wang Meilin took off her coat, revealing the outfit Wen Sihe had given her. She looked smug and said, "When I put this on and stand there, I look much better than your model."
As she spoke, she pointed to the plastic mannequins in the glass display window.
Everyone present was amused by her actions.
Not long after, Wang Xueqing arrived: "Oh my, I thought I was pretty early, but I didn't expect you were all here already!"
The atmosphere inside the clothing store was cheerful. Lu Zhiye stood at the door smoking a cigarette when Zhou Dabing walked over: "President Lu, everything is arranged!"
I specifically called a few brothers to keep watch around here; there's absolutely no chance of anyone causing trouble!
"Thank you for your hard work. Also, how's the publicity going?"
"I've already spoken to the neighborhood committee and assured them that all the garbage I've created will be cleaned up."
The neighborhood committee has agreed.
"Okay, you did a good job. Keep a close eye on the situation here."
After all, it was the first clothing store in Beijing. Like the cosmetics factory, it was hard to guarantee that someone wouldn't have dirty intentions!
In addition, where there are many people, there are bound to be troubles. If the flow of people reaches a certain number, something bad is bound to happen!
We still need to find someone to maintain order!
At the very least, if a few burly men like Zhou Dabing stood at the door, ordinary people wouldn't dare to cause trouble!
We've finally tidied everything up inside, and now we're just waiting to open for business!
Everyone present was both nervous and excited!
The car was parked at the entrance of the alley on the other side, and Lu Zhiye could see it from where he was standing. He didn't bring Zhou Xinxin with him. It would be best to send the child away while Wen Sihe was too busy to even take a break!
At this moment, Zhou Xinxin sat restlessly in the back seat.
However, the moment Lu Zhiye looked up, he turned his head and saw the little guy open the car door and run out!
He took two steps forward, and Zhou Dabing, who was beside him, quickly followed. He had obviously noticed the commotion and hurriedly said to Lu Zhiye, "President Lu, shall I go after them?"
"Okay, go ahead, but be careful not to hurt the child. See which way she goes."
If you have a place to stay, then you don't need to worry about it!
For some reason, Lu Zhiye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
