Chapter 255 Rejecting the Sewing Machine Order
Su Xiaoxiao wondered: "Grandma, what's the good news?"
Grandma Liu rubbed her hands together, her face excited: "A friend of my grandson wants to order ten sewing machines from you."
One sewing machine costs 200 yuan, and ten sewing machines cost 2,000 yuan.
Did I meet a local rich man?
Su Xiaoxiao's eyes widened immediately, but she quickly calmed down.
Who among ordinary people would spend so much money on a sewing machine?
With the salary level of that era, ordinary people would have to save money for a long time if they wanted to buy a sewing machine.
In their village, there are very few households with an annual income of over 1,000 yuan, and most families are extremely poor.
She thought for a moment and helped Grandma Liu into the house: "Grandma, please tell me what's going on first."
Grandma Liu was helped by her to sit down on the stool, and she took a big sip of the water that Su Xiaoxiao poured for her.
She came here in such a hurry that she didn't even have time to drink a sip of water, so she was really thirsty now.
This water tastes sweet in the mouth, and you can tell that sugar has been added.
"Xiaoxiao girl, this sugar is very precious. If you give it to an old woman like me, I'll go blind."
"Grandma, what are you talking about? When we were little, we often went to your house to eat. How could you be blinded by giving you some sugar water? If you like, come to my house every day to drink it."
Su Xiaoxiao pretended to be angry.
Grandma Liu felt sweet in her mouth and even sweeter in her heart.
It’s a pity that her grandson is already married, otherwise she really wants Xiaoxiao to be her grandson’s wife.
She is beautiful, capable, and filial. She is a good wife that you can't find even with a lantern.
Unlike her granddaughter-in-law, who is lazy and good at eating and doing nothing, and always causes trouble every day. It’s better not to mention her.
She sighed, put down the enamel pot, and briefly explained what had happened to Su Xiaoxiao.
Grandma Liu's grandson works in a towel factory.
A few days ago, when I was chatting with two colleagues, I accidentally mentioned the mini sewing machine, and one of my colleagues intentionally or unintentionally asked him about its origin.
He said his friend also wanted to buy sewing machines and wanted ten at once.
When Grandma Liu heard this, she was immediately excited. Xiaoxiao gave her a commission of 40 yuan for the sewing machine last time. It would be wrong for her to take such a large sum of money.
She thought that if she could introduce more clients to Xiaoxiao, she would feel more at ease with the money.
Su Xiaoxiao originally thought that the other party ran a tailor shop or something, but she didn't expect that he actually wanted to use it for himself.
Could one person possibly need so many sewing machines? Su Xiaoxiao was a little skeptical.
But Grandma Liu meant well, so it was difficult for her to refuse directly.
I had to say politely, "Grandma, thank you for introducing me to this, but my relatives are out of stock of electric sewing machines, so we can't make this money."
Su Xiaoxiao looked regretful. "Grandma, to be honest with you, I also want to make this money, but there is no way. The source of goods is not in my hands. I am just running errands for relatives."
"You kid, if it succeeds, it succeeds. If it fails, forget it. Can grandma really blame you?"
This sewing machine is a rare item even in the city, so it is normal that it is not available.
It’s all her fault. She was too excited and made Xiaoxiao feel embarrassed.
"Grandma, I'm so sorry to have made you run all this way."
Su Xiaoxiao's face was full of guilt.
This made Grandma Liu feel a little embarrassed: "Xiaoxiao girl, what are you talking about? Even if I don't come to deliver the message, I still have to take a walk to stretch my legs, unless you are disgusted by me, an old woman, who always comes to your house to eat and drink for free."
"Grandma, you are my dear grandma. I am so happy that you are willing to come and eat and drink for free."
These words made Grandma Liu very happy: "Xiaoxiao girl, don't worry, I will let my grandson push this matter away when I get back, and I will definitely not embarrass you."
Grandma Liu came to her senses now and even blamed her grandson a little. It was hard to get one sewing machine, and he wanted ten. He really had the nerve to agree to it.
After Su Xiaoxiao sent Grandma Liu away, she came back and saw Wang Chunhua in the west wing, leaning against the window frame and looking out eagerly.
He met her gaze and forced a stiff smile on his face.
Half of her face was out of control, and only the other half could barely make an expression, which made her look a little creepy.
Su Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched, she ignored her and turned into the house.
She is a vengeful person. Wang Chunhua has treated her badly since she was a child. She is not even as good as Grandma Liu. Why should she be nice to her now?
Hearts for hearts, you gain only when you give.
She would not be soft-hearted just because Wang Chunhua was lying on the kang.
As he stepped into the house, he looked up and met his elder brother Su Wenbing's inquiring eyes.
Su Wenbing had just listened to the conversation between the two, and his mind was full of questions.
"Xiaoxiao, when did our family have a relative who deals in sewing machines?"
Su Xiaoxiao scratched her head. "Brother, actually, it's a friend of mine who has a source of goods. I just help him sell some and earn a commission or something. I'm not afraid of being reported for speculation, so I can only tell the outside world that it was done by a relative of ours. Don't tell me anything when you go out."
"You don't know who I am, your brother?"
Su Wenbing spoke, but he felt a little worried.
Sewing machines are a best-seller, so why would he ask his third sister to sell them for no reason?
Wouldn't you make more money if you sell it yourself?
I took a look and saw my third sister's attractive face, with a melon-shaped face, big eyes and fair and tender skin. It's just that her clothes are a little poor. If she dresses up, she will definitely be more beautiful than those city girls.
Wait...could that guy be interested in her third sister?
This is not uncommon. His third sister's face has been popular with boys since she was a child. For example, look at Song Weidong today, his eyes are almost glued to his third sister's face.
"Third sister, tell me the truth, your friend is not interested in you, right? Otherwise, why would he let you replace him when there is such a lucrative opportunity?"
Seeing that her brother had obviously misunderstood, Su Xiaoxiao quickly said, "Brother, you misunderstood. The friend who sells sewing machines is a lesbian. She only cooperated with me because I work in a department store and have a wide range of social connections."
Hearing that it was a female lesbian, Su Wenbing finally felt relieved: "That's fine, I thought..."
Before he could finish his words, Liu Cuilan and Xu Zhaodi came in, followed by Su Pandi.
As soon as Liu Cuilan entered the room, she saw her third daughter standing in the main room talking to the eldest daughter. She hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Su Xiaoxiao aside.
"Third brother, tell me the truth. Where did you get that mini sewing machine? Did you secretly sell it from a department store? We can't do that kind of thing. If we're not careful, we could end up in jail."
"Mom, don't worry. This sewing machine of mine definitely came from a good source. It's from a friend I know who happens to work at a sewing machine factory. One of his family members is a leader in the factory and has some authority."
After hearing her say this, Liu Cuilan's anxious heart finally relaxed a little.
"That's fine. When I came back just now, there were two men at the village entrance asking about Lao San selling sewing machines. They didn't look like good people."
