Chapter 264: How could you even fool your own sister? She will only get married once in her life...
After hearing this, Zhou Lian's mouth twitched unconsciously, and even the veins on his forehead throbbed, as he regretted his desire to have a wife at that time.
He felt that if he dared to say he wanted it, he would be like a pig to be picked by others.
"Hehe..." He laughed awkwardly: "Thank you for your kindness, Auntie, but I already have a girl I like. We are fine."
Aunt Qian laughed and said, "I didn't help you, so why should I thank you? A girl doesn't care about your sincerity or actions. If you can't handle it, come to me another day, and I will make sure you can get the beauty."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Auntie." Zhou Lian sent Aunt Qian to the door, and when he came back he saw Wen Jiu staring at him with a teasing smile on his face.
"Brother Zhou is pretty fast!"
"Where is this girl from? Is she pretty? Do you want me to give you some advice?"
Zhou Lian said helplessly: "No, I'm just trying to fool Aunt Qian. If I really have one, I will definitely ask my sister-in-law to advise me."
"Okay!"
"It's settled then!"
Seeing Zhou Lian was a little embarrassed, Wen Jiu secretly found it funny. These soldiers all looked innocent on the surface, but in reality...
Tsk tsk tsk!
Not much better than her!
For example, the guy in her family can say all kinds of dirty words in bed without batting an eyelid, and the longer they are together, the more outrageous he becomes.
Soon, customers came to the store, and Zhou Lian was busy greeting them. He Rongrong came from the backyard after giving Fugui'er a bath, and approached Wen Jiu and whispered, "I just heard you talking about Fugui'er with someone. Is there anything wrong with Fugui'er?"
She has never been careless about anything related to Fuguier.
First of all, it's because she likes dogs.
Moreover, Fugui'er was a gift from Xia Huaishan, and he is a military dog from the army. He has made great contributions, so he must be raised well.
Wen Jiu replied, "Nothing happened. Aunt Qian said she wanted to give her dog to our Fuguier to breed with. I lied to her and said Fuguier was sick and couldn't breed."
He Rongrong was very confused, "No? I think Fugui'er is fine!"
"Mrs. Qian is too gossipy."
"If we become her in-law, I'm afraid our ears will suffer in the future." Wen Jiu said this with a lingering fear.
She did like to listen to gossip, but compared to Aunt Qian, she was nothing.
It's so gossipy that it's scary!
He Rongrong didn't like gossiping, so she understood immediately after hearing Wen Jiu's words, "This really won't work. It's better for you to refuse. I've finished making Brother Xue's clothes. Can you see if there's anything you want to change?"
Wen Jiu was surprised, "So fast?"
"Did you stay up late again?"
She has been making other clothes these days because she is in a hurry to launch new products and doesn't have much time.
He Rongrong felt guilty when Wen Jiu looked at her, so she lowered her head and answered, "I just stayed up for a while. I almost finished what I had done during the day."
He poked her head with a hint of alcohol, gritted his teeth and said angrily, "You! What can I say about you? What if the light is so bad at night that your eyes are damaged?"
"Don't do it at night anymore. If you do it again, I'll deduct your money if I find out!"
Money is He Rongrong's lifeblood. She dreams of paying off the money she owes Wenjiu as soon as possible so that she won't worry about it anymore. Otherwise, she always feels like there is a knot in her heart that cannot be untied and she is thinking about it all the time. After hearing what Wenjiu said, she could only promise not to make clothes at night in the future.
Xue Songchen's suit is well made, but the seam on the chest is a little crooked, and this kind of fabric is very special and cannot be taken apart, otherwise it will leave a hole in the seam.
Seeing Wenjiu staring at the piece of cloth, He Rongrong also discovered the problem.
She was immediately filled with guilt.
If she hadn't been in a hurry to do it at night, she wouldn't have made such a low-level mistake...
Wen Jiu took the opportunity to teach him a lesson, "See! I told you not to do it at night but you refused to listen. This time I must deduct your wages to teach you a lesson. Go and do your work and I will make up for it."
"I will never do it at night again." He Rongrong promised seriously. She was more worried about the delay in warming the wine due to her own negligence than about being deducted money.
It's not difficult to alter this dress, it just takes a little time. Remove the thread on that piece and use the thread from the cut fabric to patch the hole, then re-sew it.
After the repair, there is no problem at all.
Wen Jiu was very satisfied. Seeing that there was no one in the store, he called Zhou Lian and He Rongrong over and said, "Come and take a look at the clothes I repaired. Can you tell if there were any defects?"
Zhou Lian asked in surprise: "You have practiced? How come I can't tell?"
It was normal that he couldn't see it as an outsider, but the clothes were made by He Rongrong. She knew how precious the silk fabric was, and she didn't expect that warm wine could repair it so well.
"Ajiu, you are so amazing! Where did you learn this skill? Why have I never heard you talk about it before?"
After hearing what He Rongrong said, Wen Jiu's smug expression instantly froze on his face.
Why did she get so carried away?
As for how to make clothes, she told everyone that she learned it from He Rongrong. How could an apprentice know how to make clothes when even the master doesn’t know how to do it?
Isn't this suspicious?
She thought for a moment, blinked her eyes, and replied playfully, "How can I tell anyone about my secret craft? I learned it from a book. If you want to learn, I'll find time to teach you."
Of course He Rongrong was willing to do so. If she could improve her skills, she could make more clothes.
"Okay, okay."
"I'll wait for you to teach me."
Taking advantage of the free time now, Zhou Lian expressed his doubts, "Sister-in-law, I have something to ask you. Regarding the old woman who smeared feces in our store, why didn't you ask who asked her to do it?"
You can't reason with animals, but you should at least know who their owner is, right?
Otherwise, how can we avenge ourselves?
At that time, he thought Wen Jiu was smart. She must have her reasons for doing that. But after waiting for so long and still without any follow-up, he could no longer hold back.
This loss cannot be eaten in vain.
Wen Jiu replied: "I know who it is. The bracelet on the old woman's wrist was a birthday gift from my uncle to my cousin Zheng Xin for her 16th birthday."
"The bracelet is custom made. I have one too."
She understood it as soon as she saw it, and she would definitely settle this account with Zheng Xin when she had the time.
But not now.
After hearing Wen Jiu say this, Zhou Lian and He Rongrong knew that she must have an idea, so they didn't say much and went about their own business.
I was warming up my stiff shoulders and neck and was about to sit down by the fire to rest, but someone came before my butt even touched the bench.
The leader was Yang Xiao.
Following him were Qu Jingbei and two other men and women she didn't know. The man was wearing a military uniform, and the woman was dressed very fashionably, with curly hair, a dress and a hat.
Qu Jingbei started to find fault as soon as he entered the store, "Old Yang, are you sure? What good things can this little shop produce? How can you even deceive your own sister? She only got married once in her life."
