Chapter 70: Warming up the wine, aren’t you afraid that my aunt and the others will be pissed off to death?
Wen Jiu smiled and shook his head, "Sister, I can't sell it at the price you mentioned. Look at the stitching, accessories, and even the buttons. They are all made by me. There are no duplicates. If I made them in bulk, the price would definitely be lower, but each piece of this batch of clothes is a single piece, and I put a lot of effort into making each piece, so the price of this batch of clothes is relatively high."
"If you want this one, take it for eight bucks!"
She went to all the clothing stores in the town, and it took her several visits to find something that looked good, and each one cost four or five dollars. Although the price she asked for was high, it was not outrageous.
Poor people make their own clothes, and those who can buy clothes outside are not from poor families.
Lu Qingqing was stunned when she heard this. She thought Wenjiu’s price was too high. Who would spend so much money on a skirt?
"You want eight bucks for this piece of junk?"
"You're a good commander, but you don't want to be a good commander. Instead, you come here to do deceptive business. Are you really not afraid of making my aunt angry to death?"
Zheng Xin squeezed into the crowd in high heels, wearing a tacky pink cheongsam. She crossed her arms and looked at Wen Jiu arrogantly, her expression showing both disgust and contempt.
She is the daughter of Wenjiu's second aunt. She and Wenjiu are the only two girls in their generation. She is not as good as Wenjiu and is jealous of her in everything. The past two years can be said to be the most successful time of her life. Whenever she looks at Wenjiu, she will step on her feet to vent her resentment.
Wen Jiu said, "What's wrong with the commander's daughter? I'm also doing legitimate business. All the sisters and aunts have eyes. They can tell whether the clothes are tattered or not."
Selling clothes is only a short-term plan.
After raising initial capital and looking for a direction, she wanted to do her best to do something beneficial to society and women.
Lu Beiye is a soldier, she is a soldier's wife, and she has received modern education. If she does nothing, is she still worthy of being a modern person?
Women should help each other!
Zheng Xin sneered twice, "I haven't seen you for a few days and you've become more eloquent. It must be hard to marry a poor boy, right?"
Wen Jiu sighed, frowned, and continued with Zheng Xin's words: "Isn't it?"
"I'm so poor that I have no money to spend. I don't even have meat to eat all day. I'm so hungry that I look pale and skinny. I can't even wear my old clothes. Seeing how miserable I am, my cousin should help me, right?"
"I'm almost out of money for food..." When Wenjiu said this, he pretended to reach out and wipe away his non-existent tears.
There is no need to argue!
People like this who have big breasts, no brains, are jealous and like to show off their superiority are all rich people.
Zheng Xin was fooled. She opened her bag with a smile and took out 100 yuan. "Seeing how miserable you are, I am embarrassed to enjoy myself as your sister."
"I bought all these. Just consider it as my sister's charity for you to eat."
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at everyone and said, "These clothes are too ugly. I don't like them. If you like them, take them."
"Wow--"
"Thank you, kind Bodhisattva!"
Everyone started rushing to grab clothes, and Zheng Xin was almost squeezed to the point of falling down. Thanks to Wenjiu who reached out and pulled her aside in time.
Those who managed to grab the clothes left happily, while those who didn't grab any left dejectedly.
Wen Jiu took the money Zheng Xin gave him and blinked at her pitifully, "Sister, can you give me a little more? I'm really poor..."
In the past, the original owner always quarreled with Zheng Xin, which made her very angry every time. But suddenly, he became so well-behaved that she was so dizzy that she turned around.
She reached out and took out another 50 yuan to warm the wine, and said with a haughty look: "This is a reward for you. Buy some meat and go home to eat well. Don't say that I, as your sister, don't love you."
Warm the wine to 90 degrees and bow, "Thank you, sister!"
Zheng Xin smiled proudly, "You're welcome. I'm happy to see you in such a miserable state." After she said that, she walked away with her hips twisted.
Wenjiu flicked the money in his hand and his eyes narrowed with laughter.
This money is so easy to make!!
If all the original owner's enemies were as easy to deceive as Zheng Xin, wouldn't she be rich?
“Sister-in-law…”
Lu Qingqing was stunned. She didn't understand why Wen Jiu said that.
Wen Jiu patted her shoulder and said with a smile: "I was just talking nonsense. When dealing with such a person, you have to follow her wishes. If she wants to laugh at my jokes, let her laugh. Anyway, it doesn't hurt me at all."
Lu Qingqing thought for a moment and said, "Sister-in-law, I think your method is much more effective than quarreling, but is it okay for you to do this?"
"She is your cousin!"
If she goes back and tells nonsense, won't her sister-in-law's reputation be ruined?
Wen Jiu said nonchalantly, "It's okay. Since I dare to do it, I'm not afraid of what she will say. Take this 20 yuan and use it when you go to school."
Lu Qingqing quickly put her hands behind her back, her head shaking like a rattle, "No, my mom gave me money!"
Her sister-in-law gave her her own clothes to wear and took her to buy new clothes, new shoes and many other things. How could she still have the nerve to ask her sister-in-law for money?
Wen Jiu forced the money on her, "Take it. This money was originally meant for you. If you don't take it, I won't ask you to help me anymore. I don't have the nerve to ask you to help me."
Seeing that Wenjiu looked unhappy, Lu Qingqing was afraid that she was really angry so she had no choice but to take the money.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Wen Jiu wanted to improve Lu Beiye's diet, so he bought some meat, spare ribs, lotus root, and watermelon, and caught the last bus back home.
After returning home, Lu Qingqing started to cook dinner. Wen Jiu wanted to help her but was kicked out because Wen Jiu was a kitchen killer. She looked smart but knew nothing in the kitchen. She couldn't remember things that had been told several times. The most she could do was wash the dishes.
Dinner consisted of baked steamed buns, fried eggplant, beans, bitter gourd, and lotus root and pork ribs soup.
Xia Huaishan followed Lu Beiye to eat, and before he even entered the house, he began to sigh, "Old Lu, you really have a fairy-like life. You have such a beautiful wife waiting for you to come home every day, and your sister cooks for you."
Lu Beiye smiled, "Jealous? If you are jealous, then just find yourself a wife!"
"Looking for a fart!"
Xia Huaishan curled his lips, "There are only men in the army, where can I find them?"
When he saw Wenjiu, his eyes lit up instantly. He went over and sat next to Wenjiu, "Sister-in-law, do you know any good girls? She should be gentle and not the type who pulls people's ears all the time. My requirements are not high. I am so jealous to see Lao Lu marry such a good wife like you. I also want to marry a wife!"
Originally he had no idea of getting married, but looking at Lu Beiye's cheerful face and his increasingly gentle way of treating people every day, he felt itchy and wanted to get married!
Wen Jiu was also very happy to be praised. After thinking carefully, he felt that he and He Rongrong were a good match. The fact that he and Lu Beiye could become good brothers meant that his character must be pretty good. He Rongrong just happened to have the kind of personality he liked.
Maybe they can really succeed!
But there was nothing to be done yet! There was no point in telling him, it would only make him worry. Besides, she had to ask He Rongrong first to avoid any unexpected embarrassment.
"I'll keep an eye out for you. If there's anything suitable, I'll ask for you. Please sit down first. I'll go cut some watermelon for you to eat."
"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law."
Xia Huaishan smiled particularly happily, as if he had already seen the scene of himself getting married.
Lu Beiye sneered: "Go over there, look at what you have accomplished!"
"You are the only one who has a bright future!"
Xia Huaishan sneered at him, "I don't know who is the one who has such a worthless smile every day, and after finishing his work, he runs back home like his butt is on fire."
Wenjiu came out with a watermelon in her hand. When she heard what he said, she subconsciously looked at Lu Beiye. Seeing Lu Beiye's evasive expression, she knew that Xia Huaishan was definitely not lying.
Is it worthless to smile at others?
So she's just being pretentious?
Watch how she tortures and extracts a confession at night!
She put the watermelon on the table and invited Xia Huaishan to eat it, "Come, come, eat watermelon."
"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law." Xia Huaishan took the watermelon with a grin and started to eat it. As the cool watermelon went into his stomach, the heat in his body seemed to disappear instantly.
