Chapter 544 Mother-in-law is not my mother
The cell phone in the bag kept ringing. Su Jiaojiao took a look, stood up and walked to the window to answer it.
It was Marco Bo calling. "Boss Su, this is urgent. I suggest we start hiring earlier next year. I've already received two large orders, both for delivery around May Day. The order is for wedding dresses from a photo studio. They've ordered ten styles from the Twenty-Four Solar Terms series, 1,000 pieces each. When can you come to work? We need to sign the contract quickly."
"Then I'll go there tomorrow." Su Jiaojiao had nothing to do at home. Instead of attending these boring parties, she might as well go to work.
"Hey, that's great." Marco Bo laughed shamelessly on the other end of the phone. "Did I delay your wedding leave?"
"After I sign the contract, I will come back to take my honeymoon leave." Su Jiaojiao also wanted to move to the suburbs of Beijing as soon as possible, but it was winter now and the dormitory building had no heating, so it was uninhabitable. She had to wait until the weather got warmer.
If we start construction next year, the earliest it will be around the tenth day of the first lunar month.
Everyone has been busy for several months, so take advantage of the New Year to have a good rest.
"Okay, I'll notify the client now and expect you tomorrow." Marco Bo was so motivated that he wished he hadn't taken a holiday during the Lunar New Year. He then asked Su Jiaojiao, "Boss Su, what do you think of my wedding collection and my twenty-four solar terms collection?"
"Very good." Su Jiaojiao praised sincerely, "I didn't expect the effect to be so good. As long as it can be accepted by the market and can be monetized, it will be a successful series. I hope you will continue to develop new products."
"I've already come up with the idea for my next new product line, but I'm keeping it secret for now," Marco said mysteriously. "I'm applying for 100,000 yuan in start-up capital this time. You must approve it."
"What series is so mysterious that even I can't figure it out?" Su Jiaojiao simply leaned on the windowsill and chatted with him. "I can give you the start-up capital, but you have to let me know what it is, right?"
"Okay, I can tell you my idea tomorrow." Marco chuckled, "But I calculated that the start-up capital would be around 100,000."
"Okay, I'll give it to you." Su Jiaojiao agreed straightforwardly, "I believe in you. I believe you can grasp the changes in trends and market needs."
"Thank you, Mr. Su." Marcopo was very happy. "Don't worry, my new series will definitely be a big hit."
After finishing the call, Su Jiaojiao sat down. There was still half a bowl of rice left in her bowl. As soon as she picked it up, Lu Jingyou said, "It's cold. Don't eat it. I'll serve you something hot."
"No need, I'm done eating." Su Jiaojiao simply put down her chopsticks.
"Then let's cut the cake and eat it." Lu Jingyou opened the cake package, cut it, and brought it over. He took a piece for Su Jiaojiao first, and placed the rest in front of Lin Manli, Lin Manling and Bai Moli.
Lu Jia and Bai Ming don't like cake, so neither of them wanted any.
In front of Lin Manling and Bai Moli, Lin Manli felt more and more upset and embarrassed, but she couldn't say anything. If she did, others would think that she was jealous of her daughter-in-law.
After the meal, Su Jiaojiao also felt uncomfortable.
From now on, I’d better come here less often. It’s too awkward.
"Jingyou, I have cleaned up your room for you. You and Xiaosu can stay here!" Lin Manli still wanted to talk to her son for a while. Every time she went to the old house, she could hardly say a few words to Lu Jingyou.
"Mom, let's come back another day." Lu Jingyou knew that Su Jiaojiao didn't want to live here, so he said, "My grandma said we have to go back and live here. We can't leave the new house empty."
"Yes, yes, that's what they say." Lu Jiahe echoed, "You guys should go back quickly and come back when you have time."
On the way back, Su Jiaojiao couldn't help but complain to Lu Jingyou: "Your aunt is really interesting. She even asked me to treat your mother as my own mother. She said it so confidently. Mother-in-law is mother-in-law, and mother is mother. It's impossible for them to be the same."
"You've already retorted!" Lu Jingyou laughed. "If they say that again in the future, you can confront them, and I'll join you in the fight."
"Aren't you angry when I say that?" Su Jiaojiao turned her head and looked at Lu Jingyou, "Do you also hope that I treat your mother as my own mother?"
"I don't think so. My mother didn't raise you, nor did she support you. You two are a family because of me." Lu Jingyou immediately stated, "She gave birth to me, so it's my duty to be filial to her. As for how you treat her, it depends on how you get along."
"I'm willing to get along well with them, provided we can get along well." Su Jiaojiao said seriously, "Anyway, for me, there's no should or shouldn't, only whether I'm willing or not."
"I understand." Lu Jingyou didn't care about these things, and he was also annoyed by people making a big deal out of these things. He felt that getting along with others was a natural thing. He would be filial to his parents, but Su Jiaojiao had no such obligation.
When Su Jiaojiao heard him say this, she suddenly laughed: "I never thought that one day, I would also face the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law problem. I'm not angry, I just find it quite boring."
"My mother doesn't have any bad intentions. She's just going through menopause." Lu Jingyou said indifferently, "She'll be fine after this."
Su Jiaojiao didn't say anything else.
No matter how bad Lin Manli was, she was still his mother. She couldn't talk about his mother with him, and she had no interest in it.
The next day, Lu Jingyou and Su Jiaojiao sent Chen Guisheng and Zhao Shun to the airport, and then rushed to the company to sign the contract. The two of them were inseparable, looking like newlyweds.
Su Jiaojiao was signing a contract with a client in the office, while Lu Jingyou was waiting in the workshop.
"Mr. Lu, are you afraid that Jiaojiao will run away with someone?" Cai Ting teased Lu Jingyou, "And now you're following her to work too?"
"Yeah, I finally got her, what would I do if she ran off with someone else?" Lu Jingyou rarely joked with Cai Ting. Ji Hong laughed heartily when she heard it. "Don't worry, we'll all keep an eye on her for you."
Marco Bo had originally been very critical of Lu Jingyou, but now that he was supportive of their work, he felt a lot more comfortable with him. He pinched his fingers together and said, "Don't worry. Your photos have been in magazines and will be on TV later. Everyone knows that Ms. Su is your wife, and no one would dare to take advantage of her."
"I feel relieved when you say that." Lu Jingyou also took a liking to Marco Bo. "You worked hard on our wedding day. When you're done with this busy period, we'll treat you to a meal."
"I don't believe what you men say. If you have the guts, treat me today." Marco Bo automatically excluded himself from the men's group. "If you treat me to a meal today, I'll believe you truly appreciate my hard work."
"Okay, then today at noon!" Lu Jingyou agreed immediately, "You can go wherever you want."
"I want to go to Shangri-La!" Marco's eyes lit up, and then he said mysteriously, "Don't worry, I won't let you waste your money, and I'll introduce you to a big client."
"What big client?" Lu Jingyou asked.
"You'll know when you get there." Marco made a face but refused to say anything.
