Chapter 360 Daughter-in-law Candidate
The moment Su Jiaojiao saw Lin Manli, she wondered if she was possessed by a ghost.
Why should she date Lin Manli's son? She should stay away from Lu Jingyou and live a comfortable life.
Why should she get involved with the Lu family?
What made her even more depressed was that she ran into Lin Manli as soon as she arrived. It was simply a coincidence.
If it weren't for work, she really wanted to turn around and leave.
The afternoon sun was still dazzling. She was thinking in her mind but kept following Zhang Miaomiao forward. Lin Manli and Pei Lan didn't see them at first and were walking towards the private customization studio.
Zhang Miaomiao happened to call out to Pei Lan: "Sister Pei, long time no see!"
"Miaomiao, you haven't been here for a long time." Pei Lan stopped and looked at the two of them with a smile. Lin Manli also looked at Zhang Miaomiao and Su Jiaojiao. When she saw Su Jiaojiao, she was still a little unsure whether this girl was Su Jiaojiao.
The last time she saw Su Jiaojiao was in winter. Su Jiaojiao was wearing a down jacket at that time, and she could hardly remember what Su Jiaojiao looked like.
The girl in front of me was wearing a lake blue culottes, a light blue tank top, a white sun-protective clothing, and had her hair tied up in a bun. She looked refreshing and seemed to be more youthful and beautiful than the last time we met.
No wonder her son was so besotted with her.
Men like Lu Jingyou who have little emotional experience are easily attracted by girls' appearance. They never know that appearance alone is not enough to make a living, and family background and personality are also very important.
Zhang Miaomiao didn't know Lin Manli, so she just nodded to her casually as a greeting. The same was true for Su Jiaojiao, who didn't even look at Lin Manli.
With Zhang Miaomiao's introduction, she shook hands with Pei Lan confidently: "Hello, Mr. Pei, I'm Su Jiaojiao, nice to meet you."
"Hello, hello, Miss Su, you look so young, you look like a college girl." Pei Lan felt an inexplicable liking for Su Jiaojiao when he saw her, and shook hands with her enthusiastically, "Is Miss Su still in school?"
It’s really Su Jiaojiao!
Lin Manli couldn't help but glance at her a few more times. However, Su Jiaojiao didn't even look at Lin Manli. She was talking to Pei Lan the whole time: "Boss Pei has a really good eye. I'm currently a sophomore at Peking University."
She actually wanted to say to Pei Lan, Master, we meet again.
Without Pei Lan's support and care, her work at Jiahe in her previous life would not have been so smooth, and she would not have met Lu Jingyou.
Lin Manli was very unhappy.
She didn't expect Su Jiaojiao to act so arrogantly in front of her and ignore her. After all, she was Lu Jingyou's mother.
If you have the ability, don't get entangled with her son.
"I was saying Miss Su's temperament was different from others. I see." Pei Lan looked at the two of them with a smile and said kindly, "Boss Wu is in the office right now. You can go find him. I have something else to do here, so I can't stay with you any longer."
"Thank you, Sister Pei. We'll go first." Zhang Miaomiao took Su Jiaojiao's hand and walked towards the office building. She whispered as she walked, "Pei Lan is the smart one. She owns her own company, but she also works outside. She said that couples working together tend to quarrel, so she works outside."
"That's right, couples also need their own space." Su Jiaojiao's steps became much more relaxed.
It seems that meeting Lin Manli is no big deal, as long as she is not embarrassed, the embarrassed one is Lin Manli.
The best scenario is that Lin Manli knew that she was taking orders here, and then she didn't come to avoid suspicion, rather than her affecting her work progress in order to avoid seeing Lin Manli.
All the imagined difficulties are actually not that difficult.
After a few more practices, it won’t be that difficult.
Being thick-skinned doesn't come in a day or two; it happens naturally over time.
Anyway, she didn't want to leave a good impression on Lin Manli. If she and Lu Jingyou didn't end up together because of Lin Manli, it wouldn't be her fault. It only meant that she and Lu Jingyou were not destined to be together.
Just like in his previous life, Wu Jingbo liked to wear unique clothes. A man in his forties, he wore a pink shirt, bright red pants, and dyed yellow hair, looking like Tony Teacher.
Wu Jingbo is a man of strong emotions, and he would give a hearty fake laugh from time to time. He looked at the shirt samples and said that if he made 10,000 pieces, the processing fee would be 3.5 yuan.
Su Jiaojiao and Zhang Miaomiao both laughed. Su Jiaojiao said that if she added another 10,000 pieces, a total of 20,000 pieces, and the processing fee was three yuan, that would be her ideal price.
Wu Jingbo didn't say anything, just looked at the samples over and over again.
Su Jiaojiao didn't say anything. It was just a very ordinary cotton shirt with a pocket on the collar and cuffs, and the market price was three yuan.
"Mr. Wu has a large family and a large business, why would he bother with fifty cents?" Zhang Miaomiao laughed. "Twenty thousand pieces are more than enough for your apprentices to practice. Don't worry about it. If I didn't have cotton clothes, this order wouldn't even be yours."
"Okay, okay, three dollars then!" Wu Jingbo also followed him down the stairs. He knew the market price of this kind of shirt, and he just wanted to test Su Jiaojiao's ability. "Even though we're acquaintances, let's still follow the old rules. Pay 30% of the processing fee upfront, and the rest in installments."
"Okay, then let's sign the contract today, and I'll deliver the fabric tomorrow." Su Jiaojiao doesn't like to procrastinate. The sooner work starts, the sooner the product can be put on the market. "You must guarantee a supply of at least one thousand finished products in the first month."
"No problem." Wu Jingbo agreed readily.
This is how it works when launching new clothing models. The shipment volume is small at the beginning, but as he becomes more skilled, the speed becomes faster and faster. By then, his four assembly lines will ship together, and her batch of goods will be finished before the end of the year.
Lin Manli came to the Kyoto Garment Factory to pick up clothes for Old Lady Lu. The elderly were weak and could not wear short sleeves even in summer, so she came to make two three-quarter-sleeved cotton and linen double-breasted tops for Old Lady Lu.
People at the Kyoto Private Customization Studio don't like Lin Manli. She is too picky and often has to modify the finished clothes several times. For example, if there is a missed stitch or a little wrinkle, she will not accept it.
But for Pei Lan's sake, they could only greet her with a smile. After all, she was their breadwinner, and as long as there was money to be made, they couldn't offend her easily.
Lin Manli feels that custom-made clothes cannot be the same as those bought in shopping malls. Custom-made clothes are expensive, and the quality should also be top-notch, without even any flaws.
This is also the reason why she doesn't trust others to come and pick up the clothes. If she finds any problems with the clothes after taking them home, they will have to be sent back for repair.
In a month of thirty days, she would come to Kyoto Clothing Company at least fifteen or sixteen times.
This time, with Pei Lan accompanying her, Lin Manli didn't bother to pick and choose. She just took the clothes and went to the old house.
Yu Mingyuan was chatting with Old Madam Lu. Seeing Lin Manli return, she stood up and said with a smile, "Boss Lin, you're finally back."
Yu Mingyuan's burgundy curly hair turned into long straight black hair, her miniskirt turned into a ladylike dress, and her makeup was light, making her look like a completely different person.
"Miss Yu has been here for a long time and is talking to me!" Old Mrs. Lu looked at Lin Manli with a smile on her face. "You're back just in time. I want to invite Miss Yu to have a simple meal. Please call Xinyue and ask her to bring Qingqing back."
"Okay." Lin Manli agreed, thinking to herself that Yu Mingyuan was quite thoughtful. It was quite a skill for her to be able to guess the Lu family's preferences.
