Time passed minute by minute, and finally, the story was over.
Jian Yuelan looked down at the child in her arms, whose eyes were rolling around, and rubbed his tender little face with a smile.
"Son, do you have any thoughts after listening to the Yellow Millet Dream?"
"have."
"What idea?"
"A loser's dream."
“???”
"Grandpa said that people should be down-to-earth and not waste their time."
“…”
"Mom, I will be a down-to-earth person and not daydream."
Jian Yuelan was speechless. She was always anxious about not being able to keep up with her son's thinking.
"Mom, let's not learn from Lu Sheng."
"Well, I don't want to learn."
"Then tell me another one."
"Still talking?"
Jian Yuelan picked up the watch under the pillow and looked at the time. She said helplessly, "Son, it's almost ten o'clock. If you don't sleep, you will have to get up for class tomorrow morning, and your great-grandfather will punish you with a ruler."
The ruler was so powerful that the child immediately buried his face in her arms and said, "Mom, I'm going to sleep."
It hurts so much when you hit your hand with a ruler.
He didn't want to be beaten with the ruler by his grandfather.
"Go to sleep."
Jian Yuelan patted his back and listened to his breathing gradually becoming calmer. Knowing that he was asleep, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
…
May 26th is the ideal day for business opening, so Jian Yuelan chose this day to open her store.
The two elders were even more nervous than her, and after breakfast they began to urge her to go to the store.
A Miao and A Hong have good figures, so they didn't make clothes today. Instead, they went to the store at Jian Yuelan's request.
“This arrangement is comfortable.”
As soon as the shop door opened, the old lady rushed in and began to look around.
The store is decorated in a neat style, with large white walls and chandeliers hanging from the ceiling of the same color.
The chandelier was made by Zhang Xinsheng's wife.
This person is a master of handicrafts. Jian Yuelan provides the ideas and she is responsible for making them come true.
At first she didn't have much hope, but she never expected that this person could use paper, leaves and other materials and light bulbs to make seven fashionable and generous chandeliers.
Jian Yuelan was amazed when she received the goods.
Now it's hanging on the ceiling. As soon as the light is turned on, Xiao Doudou exclaims, "This lamp is so beautiful."
The old man and the others looked up when they heard the sound and found that it was indeed beautiful.
Just then—
"We're not late."
Liu Chengqi's voice came from the door. Jian Yuelan turned around and saw the couple carrying the basket. She immediately went to greet them, "Uncle and aunt, why are you here?"
"We will definitely come when our eldest niece opens a shop."
He handed over the basket and said, "Good luck with your business."
Jian Yuelan reached out to take it, but before she could say anything, Lin Yuan came towards the two brothers.
Then came Lu Guowei and his wife with their children, and the entire Yuan family also came.
Even the parents of Lin Xingzhou's wife Shao Qiuyun came.
In an instant, the store became extremely lively.
After a brief greeting, the man and woman began to look at clothes.
Compared to most clothes in gray, blue, green and other colors on the market today, the clothes in Jian Yuelan's store are diverse in colors.
Those who do embroidery work all have a good sense of aesthetics. In addition, she often goes shopping, visiting luxury stores, mid-range and low-end stores, so she has a certain understanding of display.
Therefore, although there are many colors of clothes in the store, the display does not give people a messy visual effect, but rather a comfortable one.
All three siblings of Lu Guowei's family came. Lu Qin and Lu Xiao were at the age when they loved to be coquettish. As soon as they entered the store, they were attracted by the cheerful and bright clothes.
Then, Jian Yuelan, who was chatting with Lu Guowei and the others, suddenly felt a weight on the left side of her body, and Lu Qin's arm wrapped around her.
"Sister, I want to try that blue dress, is that okay?"
She pointed at the blue dress on the display wall, her face showing undisguised love.
"Sister, I want to try that."
Not to be outdone, Lu Xiao pointed to a set of matching trousers.
Lu Guowei took a look and waved his hand and said, "Xiao Jian, try them on. If they look good, uncle will open a shop for you."
Jian Yuelan was about to agree when the old man stopped her and said, "Don't be impatient. Set off the firecrackers and take off the red cloth first."
Don't miss the auspicious day and time.
With a room full of men, Jian Yuelan naturally didn't need to worry about things like hanging red silk and setting off firecrackers.
Amid the crackling sound of firecrackers, the red cloth on the signboard was removed, revealing two large gold-painted characters written in bold and elegant style - "Four Seasons".
The name of the store was chosen by the old man, implying the changing of seasons and the changing of new clothes with each season.
The words on the sign were also written by him. Originally, Jian Yuelan was going to write it herself, but after the old man saw her words, he felt that they were not suitable for engraving on the sign, saying that they lacked some style.
Therefore, his calligraphy became his trademark.
As soon as the firecrackers sounded, people who heard the sound ran over to watch the fun.
As one of the bustling streets in Ancheng, the old street has a lot of traffic that cannot be underestimated.
Someone looked into the store curiously and immediately exclaimed—
"Wow! What a beautiful dress."
"Lulu, that yellow skirt is so beautiful."
"I like that white top, it looks so elegant."
"The skirt, the red skirt is so beautiful. I'm going to go back and ask the master to make one for me."
"It's ready here, what are you going to do with it? Just buy it."
Hearing someone say they wanted to go back and have one made just like that, Lu Qin couldn't hold back any longer and reminded them, "You can just buy it and wear it away. Isn't that more comfortable than going back to buy cloth and ask a craftsman for help?"
"The most important thing is that the clothes in my sister's store are all one-of-a-kind. I dare say that you won't find the same ones even if you search all over Ancheng."
As soon as she said this, the girl who was about to do as she was told suddenly realized, "Yes, I can just buy it."
Jian Yuelan took advantage of the opportunity and asked, "Do you want to try it?"
"Can you still try?"
"White is not allowed, but other colors are allowed."
White is not resistant to stains, and getting it dirty will affect sales.
"Let me try this red skirt."
"OK."
Jian Yuelan glanced at her figure and handed her a size S. "A Miao, take this customer to the fitting room."
"Customer, come this way."
Ah Miao, wearing a white top and black bottom work clothes, led the group to the fitting room. A woman in her early thirties stared at her clothes for a long time, then turned to Jian Yuelan and asked, "Comrade, do you have any clothes on her?"
"Sorry, this is our work uniform, but we have similar styles. Would you like to take a look?"
The woman hesitated for a few seconds and nodded, "Let's see."
"Please."
Jian Yuelan came to the rack, first took out a white shirt, and then took out a pair of cigarette pants and handed them over.
Just then—
"Sister, this looks good on you."
A child's sweet voice was heard, and Jian Yuelan looked back. Wow, his son was surrounded by several little girls and was being introduced to clothes.
"What about me?"
"this."
Pointing at the blue skirt, the chubby child had a bright smile on his face and said, "My mother makes beautiful clothes. My sister will look very beautiful in them."
