Chapter 361: Each with His Own Thoughts
Qin Xiuming was originally at home, but when he saw Yu Mingyuan coming, he found an excuse to go out.
He knew that Yu Mingyuan was coming for Lu Jingyou.
These days he often saw Lu Jingyou and Yu Mingyuan together. Yu Mingyuan was also very enthusiastic when she saw him. She knew Qin Xiuming's life experience and called him Jingming without hesitation.
She said she was also a graduate of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and she talked to him based on seniority, calling him her junior brother.
Qin Xiuming knew that Yu Mingyuan's enthusiasm was based on her affection for Lu Jingyou, and he didn't have a good impression of Yu Mingyuan, but deep down he didn't want Su Jiaojiao to marry Lu Jingyou, and secretly encouraged Yu Mingyuan to win Lu Jingyou's heart.
Before he left, he specially bought a lot of fruits to treat Yu Mingyuan, just to let Mrs. Lu know that her elder brother had a good relationship with Yu Mingyuan.
In fact, Yu Mingyuan is the same age as him, but she looks much more mature than him. He can hardly imagine how a girl who has only graduated from college for two years can deal with men so easily at the dinner table.
When Lin Manli called Wu Xinyue, Wu Xinyue didn't want to go back. She knew that Qin Xiuming was in the old house. Qin Xiuming had been back for so long, but she still didn't want to see him.
If it weren't for Qin Xiuming, her relationship with Lu Jiaping wouldn't have become so strained!
Lin Manli understood and said that the men were not at home and the old lady was lonely. Now that there were female guests, she wanted them to keep her company, otherwise the old lady would say that they were not of one mind.
Wu Xinyue finally agreed, and after doing her hair, she took Lu Qingqing back to the old house.
Yu Mingyuan had done her homework and gave Lu Qingqing a red agate bracelet. It was not very expensive, but very delicate, and all little girls liked it.
Lu Qingqing looked at Old Madam Lu, who smiled and said, "Miss Yu picked this out especially for you, so just accept it and thank Miss Yu quickly."
"Thank you, Miss Yu." Lu Qingqing was actually not interested in jewelry or anything like that, but she accepted it out of politeness.
"I'm only a few years older than Qingqing, so just call me sister." Yu Mingyuan knew that Lu Qingqing had good grades and was a freshman at Peking University. She smiled and praised her as a top student. "Your older brother often told me that you have good grades and that he helped you fill out your application!"
Lin Manli frowned when she heard this.
Did Lu Jingyou even tell her such a thing?
What else did Wu Xinyue not understand? She looked at Yu Mingyuan quietly. This girl was thoughtful and seemed to be a good match for Lu Jingyou.
But Lin Manli was a very picky person, and as her aunt, it was not easy for her to interfere in her nephew's affairs. She smiled and said nothing else.
Anyway, she doesn't like girls who are so proactive.
If Lu Qingqing dared to go to her future husband's house so rashly in the future, she would not agree.
"They have always had a good relationship." Old Madam Lu took Lu Qingqing's hand and said with a smile, "Jingyou only has this one sister, and he loves her the most."
Lin Manli and Wu Xinyue looked at each other thoughtfully, and went to the kitchen at the same time to see how the meal was prepared.
The old lady never showed her emotions.
Lin Manli didn't know what the old lady's impression of Yu Mingyuan was. Besides, she was just visiting, not meeting her parents, so there was no need to ask for the old lady's opinion.
The meals in the old house are mainly light and not large in quantity, but they are cooked very delicately. Even when there are guests like Yu Mingyuan, the meals are cooked in a homely way.
Yu Mingyuan ate with gusto and kept praising the food for being delicious.
After dinner, Mrs. Lu took out a pair of jade earrings and gave them to Yu Mingyuan: "Someone gave them to me. I can't wear such delicate colors at my age. I think this color matches Miss Yu very well. I hope Miss Yu likes it too."
"This is too expensive." Yu Mingyuan knew the value of the item and felt embarrassed to accept it.
"I dare not refuse a gift from an elder. Just take it." Lin Manli understood the old lady, and everything she gave was given with sincerity.
"Thank you, grandma." Yu Mingyuan accepted it. She sat for a while and then stood up to say goodbye. The old lady, Lin Manli and Wu Xinyue sent her to the door, watched her get in the car and leave, and then the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law returned to the house.
"Mom, what do you mean by Yu Mingyuan?" Lin Manli saw Wu Xinyue go to Lu Qingqing's room and couldn't help asking the old lady, "She's quite proactive for a girl."
"She likes Jingyou, but Jingyou doesn't like her, so she took the initiative." Mrs. Lu talked for a long time and was tired. She sat on the rattan chair and said, "This kind of thing is inevitable. As elders, we should treat each other with courtesy. As for the rest, it is Jingyou's own business."
"But Yu Mingyuan didn't dress like this at first. She probably changed her style to meet you. When I first met her, she had burgundy curly hair, wore a miniskirt, and had heavy makeup on her face." Lin Manli felt more and more that Yu Mingyuan was a scheming person.
"Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to dressing up. Why do you care what others wear?" Mrs. Lu squinted her eyes and rocked gently on the rattan chair. "As long as Jingyou likes it, none of this matters."
“…” Lin Manli was speechless.
What does the old lady mean? She obviously doesn't like girls with heavy makeup, but now she says that everyone has different preferences in dressing.
Su Jiaojiao agreed on the processing fee with Kyoto Garment Company and called Fang Zeyang in the evening, asking him to ship the goods the next day. Fang Zeyang said that he was not in the factory and could not go back until the day after tomorrow, so he asked her if it was okay the day after tomorrow.
"The day after tomorrow is fine, but we can't delay any longer." Su Jiaojiao didn't mind that day. "Send as many as you have, but I'll have to wait a few days before paying you."
The investment in jeans and baseball jackets was too huge and I haven’t made a profit yet.
She had just paid Wu Jingbo 30% of the processing fee, and the balance for the jeans and baseball jacket was due, so she was short of funds for the time being.
"No problem, I believe you." Fang Zeyang agreed, "Just send the advance payment within half a month, and the rest will be as agreed in the contract."
The weather in the capital is still very hot in August.
But within a few days, major businesses began preparing autumn products.
Su Jiaojiao's baseball uniform is also in the final stage. She asked Zhang Miaomiao to deliver the goods to her in Wudaokou in advance and put them in the Millennium Fu Fu store. She plans to start wholesale sales from tomorrow.
What puzzled her was that the TV series "Urban Beauty" that was previously scheduled to be broadcast during the summer vacation did not start airing. She was thinking of taking advantage of the popularity of this TV series to sell a lot of baseball uniforms!
For this reason, she called Li Nuo again, and Li Nuo said that she didn't know what was going on, and it might be a problem with the schedule.
Li Nuo teased her, "I understand President Su's desire to take advantage of the situation, but even if that TV series were to air now, it's unlikely that everyone would immediately rush to buy your baseball jersey, right?"
"That's right." Su Jiaojiao also laughed, "I just want to sell it for a good price!"
"Stop overthinking it and just focus on selling your goods." Li Nuo knew that Su Jiaojiao was focused on making money and couldn't help but remind her, "Jingjiao, I heard that Yu Mingyuan went to the Lu family's house to visit the old lady yesterday. She was very proactive."
"Sister Nuo, I'm busy here. Let's talk when we have time!" Su Jiaojiao was busy and didn't want to discuss Yu Mingyuan with Li Nuo.
Even if she knew, what could she do?
Besides, her relationship with Lu Jingyou is not public, and she has the freedom to pursue Lu Jingyou.
At night, Su Jiaojiao realized belatedly that Lu Jingyou must know what Yu Mingyuan was thinking. The reason why Yu Mingyuan went to the Lu family showed that she still had hope.
Lu Jingyou didn't give Yan Xuewei hope, but gave Yu Mingyuan hope?
What does he mean?
