Chapter 39 Selling Dolls
"Because of this, they had a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days. The house was in chaos." Liu Ying did not blame her sister-in-law and lay back on the bed. "Later, my parents couldn't stand it anymore, so they moved to the vegetable garden. You know the small house in our vegetable garden, it's where we store potatoes and sweet potatoes in the winter. It's just one room, and when I go back, I have to squeeze on the same kang with my parents."
"How could it become like this?" Su Jiaojiao was also puzzled. Zhang Lan was not only beautiful, but also quiet and gentle, a good girl. Liu Yuan was also calm and cheerful. Liu Ying's mother was also a hardworking person, and the house was always kept clean. Needless to say, Liu Ying's father was quiet and just worked in the fields.
Four very good people, put together.
Can't live like this anymore?
"Who knows!" Liu Ying sighed deeply. "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. It makes me upset."
"Go to sleep. You have to get up early tomorrow." Su Jiaojiao turned over carefully. When you are rich, you should help the world; when you are poor, you should take care of yourself. She can't take care of herself now and can't help her old classmate. When her situation improves, she will definitely help Liu Ying as much as possible.
Hualian Shopping Mall doesn’t open until 8 o’clock.
Liu Ying was not in a hurry to go to work. She even went out to buy fried dough sticks and porridge in the morning. The two of them squeezed in on the bed to eat breakfast. Liu Ying then rode her bicycle to take Su Jiaojiao to the snack street, set up a stall with her, and then went to work at Hualian Shopping Mall.
To Su Jiaojiao's surprise, her plush toys were very popular in the snack street.
As soon as the stall is set up, many people gather to watch, especially on weekends, when many parents bring their children out for shopping, and the children can't move their legs away when they see the plush toys.
Su Jiaojiao originally wanted to sell them for eight yuan each and fifteen yuan for two.
But when she saw this, she immediately adjusted the price to ten yuan each.
No need for change.
At the beginning, there were still people bargaining with her, but as the number of people increased, as soon as one person paid for the dolls, the others stopped bargaining and started to buy the small animals that their children liked, and even bargained. If they were a little late, all the beautiful dolls would be sold out.
By noon, only two little turtles were left of the plush toys.
These two little turtles were the wettest and didn't dry even after being left out to dry all night, so Su Jiaojiao didn't put them out for sale. Even after they dried, she didn't sell them either. She and Liu Ying each held one in their arms and played with them.
She sold this batch of dolls for 530 yuan. After deducting the cost of 100 yuan and the travel and freight fee of 50 yuan, she made a net profit of 380 yuan.
With money, Su Jiaojiao liked everything. The sky was blue and the trees were green. She thought to herself that when she had free time, she would go to the bank to open an account and deposit money once a week. Little by little, she would accumulate funds slowly.
During the meal, she went to a dumpling restaurant and had a plate of three-fresh dumplings to reward herself. Come on, Su Jiaojiao!
Facts have proved that people should not be proud, because once they are proud, they will easily be disappointed.
From lunch until three in the afternoon, she didn't sell a single pair of jeans, and no one asked about them.
What went wrong?
Chen Yi came over pushing his bicycle and greeted her: "Su Jiaojiao, how are your sales today?"
"Not bad." Su Jiaojiao stood up and stretched her muscles. "Are you going to school for self-study now?"
Chen Yi is not only a good student, but also can play the piano and sing. He is multi-talented.
She was not surprised that he could play the piano. What surprised her was that he actually had a piano at home. He was definitely a big shot!
"Yes, I have prepared a few questions. We will discuss them in the group later." Chen Yi was wearing a school uniform with a white sweatshirt showing through the collar. He was a clean and tidy big boy. Su Jiaojiao couldn't help but smile like an aunt: "That's great." This child is really likable.
Chen Yi looked at her smiling face, his face slightly hot: "You are busy, I will leave first."
For some reason, he felt that the way she looked at him was filled with a hint of relief, just like an elder looking at a younger person.
No, he must have seen it wrong.
As soon as Chen Yi left, Liang Kun stopped in front of her stall on his motorcycle. He took off his helmet and tossed his newly dyed black hair: "Jingjiao, was that boy your classmate?"
She is a student and she definitely can't stand yellow hair.
He dyed it back.
"Is there something wrong, cousin?" Su Jiaojiao asked him with a restrained expression. If Liang Kun didn't talk about anything else and just wanted to interact with her, she would not refuse. Liang Kun has more conscience than Su Xiumei.
But Liang Kun's intention was very obvious, so she was disgusted.
"Nothing, I just came to see you." Liang Kun simply pushed the motorcycle aside and sat down next to her. "I have something to tell you, do you want to hear it?"
"If you don't want to talk about it, then don't." Su Jiaojiao looked at the clock hanging on the wall of the watch shop next door. It was almost four o'clock, and she had to close her shop and go back to school for evening self-study. They were both boys, but Chen Yi's words and actions only made people like him, while Liang Kun only made her feel unhappy. Liang Kun didn't care about her attitude and whispered, "Yesterday your father went to the meat processing factory to see your aunt. He rode a new bicycle and said you bought it for your mother."
In fact, Su Xiumei also said some unpleasant words.
Liang Kun did not tell Su Jiaojiao about this.
He wanted to be nice to her and had no intention of sowing discord between her and Su Xiumei.
The worse the relationship between the aunt and nephew becomes, the worse it will be for him.
But he heard from their conversation that Su Houli had forcibly pushed the bicycle out of the house without Su Jiaojiao's knowledge.
"Did he really say that?" Su Jiaojiao was a little unconvinced. The bicycle at home was bought by her for her mother. Why would Su Houli ride it? Liang Kun swore, "If I lied to you, I'd be a puppy!"
"Thank you for telling me this, cousin." Su Jiaojiao immediately packed up her stall, hailed a three-wheeled taxi, and loaded the goods onto it. "Let's go to the fertilizer plant's staff quarters."
"Five dollars." The old man driving the taxi held up five fingers.
"I'll take you there." Liang Kun pushed the cart forward and said anxiously, "It's not far, just around the corner."
"No need." Su Jiaojiao got in the car, closed the door, took out five dollars to pay the fare. If there was a first time, there would be a second time. She didn't want to get entangled with Liang Kun.
The old man looked at Liang Kun proudly, took the money, stepped on the accelerator and drove onto the main road.
You little bastard, you're trying to steal his business!
Liang Kun took a deep breath and followed the three-wheeled taxi on his motorcycle.
Su Jiaojiao put the goods into Liu Ying's cousin's warehouse, then went to the roadside to call Chen Guilan. After waiting for a long time, Chen Guilan finally came to answer the phone. Su Jiaojiao asked her directly, "Mom, where is the bicycle at home?"
"Your father rode it away." Chen Guilan's voice was relatively calm. "Jingjiao, how did you know?"
"My cousin told me." Su Jiaojiao knew immediately that Chen Guilan must have been wronged, and she felt very uncomfortable. "Mom, I'll be home next week, wait for me."
Su Houli couldn't do anything to her, so he went back to bully her mother.
It's simply hopeless.
"Okay, Mom will pick you up." Chen Guilan said softly.
"No need, I can go back by myself!" Su Jiaojiao would definitely go to Su Houli to get the bicycle back. She wanted to see how shameless Su Houli could be.
After hanging up the phone, Su Jiaojiao walked to No. 1 Middle School. The warehouse was not far from the school. She had just taken a taxi because it was inconvenient to carry the goods. Liang Kun stopped beside her again: "Jiaojiao, let me take you!"
"Cousin, do you know that what you're doing will only make me dislike you more?" Su Jiaojiao stopped and said seriously, "Even if it's business, it has to be based on mutual consent. Can't you see that I don't want to have anything to do with you?"
"I know." Liang Kun endured the pain in his heart and forced a smile. "Even if you are not my cousin, but just an ordinary friend, it is normal for me to give you a ride if I meet you on the road."
"I said, I don't need it." Su Jiaojiao ignored him and continued walking forward. Some people think that their deep affection will really become a trouble for others. It is important to have self-knowledge in life. If you force others unilaterally, it is really disgusting.
Liang Kun had no way to deal with her, but he didn't give up. He slowly followed her on his motorcycle, watching her enter the school gate and disappear in the crowd. He left in disappointment. Turning around, he saw Gao Meifeng riding a brand new bicycle to take Xue Yuxin back to school. Xue Yuxin jumped off the bicycle happily: "Goodbye, Mom!"
"Call me when you're free." Gao Meifeng smiled lovingly. Just as she turned to leave, someone grabbed the back of her bicycle. Turning back, she was met with a sullen face by Liang Kun: "Whose bicycle are you riding?"
