Chapter 410 The Neighbor Old Lady is Very Enthusiastic
Su Jiaojiao felt that the millennium was her lucky year.
The short-sleeved floral shirt finally became a hit in Wudaokou one and a half months after it was launched on the market.
The names of the two stores, Millennium Caicai and Millennium Fufu, are eye-catching in themselves. In addition, the two stores have a full range of floral shirts in more than a dozen colors, from bright to plain, making them stand out from the crowd of stores quickly.
Qi Mei started making this batch of short-sleeved floral shirts last year and was well prepared, so she finished all of them by the end of May.
Now Qi Mei is working hard to complete the order of baseball uniforms. After the summer vacation, the baseball uniforms can be supplied to Su Jiaojiao.
Retailers who come to Wudaokou to purchase goods need to make reservations with Ding Linyu in advance, otherwise they will not be able to get a number.
Three hours of work were not enough, so Su Jiaojiao asked Tang Ling to find three more. Together with Ding Linyu, Cai Ting and Wang Xiaoyu, a total of nine people were busy in the store.
Su Jiaojiao was so busy that she drove to deliver goods to retailers whenever she had free time. She ran back and forth between the school, Jinyuan and Wudaokou, so much so that Lu Jingyou couldn't find her at all.
She doesn't answer the phone.
He had no choice but to text her: "Those stocks I told you about last time, you can sell them as soon as possible."
He had reserved a company plot for her in the suburbs of Beijing, and even drove himself to calculate the driving distance to Lakeside Villa, which took less than half an hour.
It was so that she could go to work more conveniently after they got married. He didn't say too many sweet words, but he was still proactive.
It's just that she was too stubborn and now she refused to pay attention to him, which made him feel very frustrated.
Su Jiaojiao saw the text message but didn't reply to him.
She will probably never touch stocks again in the future. This time the stock price rose by more than 500%. He and she relied on the memories of their past lives and the ability to predict the future, not their actual strength.
She knew that most of Lu Jingyou's funds were used to buy the land, and the funds for the subsequent construction were still very tight, otherwise he would not have chosen to cooperate with the Yu family.
I know it, and I am really angry.
Yu Mingyuan is drunk, what does it have to do with him? She has brothers and sisters to accompany her, so why does she need him to support her?
He is the one who should be calm, not her!
If he is willing to be her protector, then just go ahead and don't come to her to explain, making it seem like it's her fault.
Anyway, his mother Lin Manli was very satisfied with Yu Mingyuan and was eager to take this opportunity to let him marry Yu Mingyuan home, so he simply went with the flow and married Yu Mingyuan.
The next afternoon, after class, Su Jiaojiao went to Hua Xia Securities and sold all the stocks she had. Seeing the 514% increase, she regretted not buying more.
After selling the stocks, Su Jiaojiao finally put her mind at ease. Looking at the seven-digit number on her bank passbook, she was in a good mood. She went to a restaurant and ordered six dishes, bought a lot of snacks and fruits, and took them home to wait for Ding Linyu and Cai Ting to come back for a small celebration.
As soon as I got home, Song Xiangyun came over: "Xiao Su, I'm here to trouble you this time. Do you know how to use an electric sewing machine?"
"I know a little bit." Su Jiaojiao answered with a smile. Old Lady Song's snacks were delicious, and she hadn't given her a return gift yet!
"That's great. The old lady downstairs just bought an electric sewing machine, but she doesn't know how to use it, and neither do I. Can you teach her?" Song Xiangyun asked her with a smile.
"Sure." Su Jiaojiao agreed immediately, "I just got back and will go after washing up."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll go back and wait for you." Song Xiangyun went downstairs without even entering the door.
Su Jiaojiao took a shower, changed her clothes, and went downstairs with two large bunches of grapes she had just bought. The grapes in this season are delicious.
Song Xiangyun opened the door and saw Su Jiaojiao bringing over some grapes. She smiled and said to her older sister, "Xiao Su is so thoughtful. She even brought some fruit."
"It's my duty." Su Jiaojiao walked in and saw a white-haired old lady sitting on the sofa. She changed her shoes and went forward to greet her, "Hello, grandma."
The old lady had a kind face and was wearing a loose grey cotton and linen suit. Her hair was naturally curly and looked as if it had been permed, making her look energetic and fashionable.
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Lu's eyes lit up when she saw Su Jiaojiao. She stood up and shook Su Jiaojiao's hand with a friendly smile, "I finally get to see you."
The little girl has a bun hairstyle, fair and tender skin, and a pair of particularly bright eyes. She wears a white short-sleeved shirt and lake blue wide-leg pants, a refreshing outfit.
She liked it at first sight.
Su Jiaojiao didn't understand what was going on and just smiled.
The layout of the first floor is the same as her home, but the furnishings are a little simpler. There is only a sofa and a coffee table in the living room, and a carpet under the coffee table.
There was also a brand new electric sewing machine in the corner. Perhaps because they had just moved in, the living room was very spacious and seemed even more spacious than their house.
"I mentioned you to the old lady, and she has always wanted to meet you." Song Xiangyun explained with a smile. Su Jiaojiao was relieved and didn't care.
Old Madam Lu held her hand tightly, so Su Jiaojiao had no choice but to sit on the sofa with the old lady. She thought to herself, this old lady is too enthusiastic...
"What's your name?" Old Mrs. Lu was still holding Su Jiaojiao's hand and looking at her with a smile. The little girl's hands were also beautiful, slender and soft.
"Su Jiaojiao."
"What a nice name! Is it the pepper from Sichuan pepper?"
"Yes." Su Jiaojiao replied.
"Where are you from and how old are you?" Old Mrs. Lu asked again.
"I'm from Qingyuan and I'm 22 years old." Su Jiaojiao wondered, was the old lady checking the household registration?
"Old sister, don't you want to learn how to sew?" Song Xiangyun brought some snacks and made some tea, reminding her, "Jiao Jiao is your ready-made master. Once she teaches you, you're guaranteed to learn it."
"I almost forgot about this." Mrs. Lu finally let go of Su Jiaojiao's hand and pointed at the sewing machine in the corner of the living room. "I usually like to tinker with needlework when I have nothing to do. Sewing by hand is too tiring for my eyes. They said everyone uses electric sewing machines now, which are easier to use, so I bought one, but I don't know how to use it."
"Let me help you." Su Jiaojiao sat over and threaded the needle. Song Xiangyun handed her a piece of cloth and said, "Your grandmother likes to sew. Teach her well."
Mrs. Lu moved a stool and sat next to Su Jiaojiao. She looked at her with an especially gentle expression: "I'm a slow learner. I can't learn it all in one go."
"It's okay. Take your time." Su Jiaojiao adjusted the sewing machine and patiently taught her with the cloth. "Because this is an electric sewing machine, it's quite fast. When you press down, you need to control the strength and press gently. When you need to stop, just push back with your heel."
"I'll take a look at it," Mrs. Lu said to Song Xiangyun with a smile, "but I don't know if I can remember it when I wake up tomorrow."
"You don't have to worry, we have a ready-made master." Song Xiangyun stood by and watched for a while, praising, "Xiao Su, your skills are really good. There are not many young girls who can do this nowadays."
"I only know a few simple ones." Although Su Jiaojiao's skills were average, she had no problem teaching the two old ladies some simple handicrafts.
Under Su Jiaojiao's guidance, Mrs. Lu also ran out of two straight lines. She was very happy: "That's great, I can use an electric sewing machine now."
"Grandma, please put your hand behind the presser foot. Be careful with your hands." Su Jiaojiao bent down to remind her, "You are just starting to use the sewing machine. Don't sit for a long time. Make sure to rest."
The old lady looks to be around seventy years old. Why is she still learning to sew on a sewing machine at such an old age?
She was afraid that she couldn't even see clearly while threading the needle.
"Okay, okay, I'll remember that." Mrs. Lu was overjoyed when she heard this and said to Song Xiangyun, "Are the buns ready? I want to keep Jiaojiao for dinner."
"No need, grandma. I'll go home and eat." Su Jiaojiao didn't feel comfortable staying for dinner.
"Before your Grandma Song opened the cake shop, she sold steamed buns. Her crab roe buns are the best." Old Mrs. Lu held Su Jiaojiao's hand tightly, insisting on keeping her to eat the buns. "We just moved here. I don't know anyone else, but I know you. Why don't you stay and try some?"
Su Jiaojiao couldn't refuse and had to stay.
With the warm hospitality of the two old ladies, Su Jiaojiao ate two steamed buns and drank a bowl of eight-treasure porridge. She was supposed to have dinner with Ding Linyu and Cai Ting tonight, but she had eaten her fill in advance.
The crab roe buns made by Song Xiangyun are really delicious, with thin skin and large fillings, and the taste is fresh. The eight-treasure porridge that has been simmered for more than two hours is also delicious, soft and tasty.
After dinner, Song Xiangyun washed the grapes that Su Jiaojiao brought. Old Mrs. Lu liked them very much and said that the grapes were very sweet.
Only then did Su Jiaojiao stand up and say goodbye.
The old lady on the first floor was so enthusiastic that she couldn't handle it.
After Su Jiaojiao left, Mrs. Lu told Song Xiangyun, "Don't tell anyone about my stay here, not even Jing You."
"Why?" Song Xiangyun was puzzled.
