Mao Xia was somewhat unhappy, but she didn't dare to ruin her father's plans.
Zhou Fangchun turned around and smiled at Chu Yu:
"I didn't do a good job today. I thought you would like the clothes I picked out, but I didn't expect that my good intentions would backfire. Next time you visit me, I will take out all the clothes and fabrics I have hidden away and apologize to you properly."
Chu Yu didn't reply.
Dai Qinxue and Xu Yiyi were standing not far away waiting for them. Zhou Fangchun had to keep the mother and daughter company, so she had to put Chu Yu's matter aside.
"Hey, Qin Xue! You've gotten even prettier in just a few days. Yi Yi's outfit is beautiful too, you're better at matching than my Mao Xia."
Dai Qinxue smiled and took Zhou Fangchun's hand, staring at Chu Yu not far away for a while.
The man who went back to Zhoujia Village with Chu Yu did not come.
After only a fleeting glimpse last time, Dai Qinxue wasn't quite sure. She felt that the person's back looked somewhat familiar, which made her feel particularly uneasy.
"What are you looking at, Qin Xue! My husband specifically instructed me to be a good host and show you around the department stores in Deyang!" Zhou Fangchun greeted her ingratiatingly.
...
Around 3 PM, Wang Xiaocai arrived hurriedly, carrying his schoolbag, apologizing as he ran:
"Excuse me, comrade, I'm late!"
"It's alright," Chu Yu handed her the buttons. "How about these? If not, we'll just have to come back tomorrow to pick some more."
Wang Xiao's eyes lit up. Chu Yu had good taste; she had picked out styles that Wang Xiao liked.
She wanted them all and gave Chu Yu five yuan. Chu Yu then gave her an extra button, which made Wang Xiao quite happy. After all, a button costs three mao (0.3 yuan), and three mao is still money!
Chu Yu had been busy all this time and hadn't had time to eat yet when Chu Xiang came back carrying a box of quail eggs. She had just finished eating a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) at Shu Hui's place on her way to the Municipal Hospital and was coming back to relieve her sister.
"Sis, go eat, I'll help you sell buttons."
Chu Yu left half of the quail eggs for her, and took the other half to the hospital entrance to see if she could sell some while eating roujiamo (Chinese hamburger).
The quail egg craze hasn't died down yet, and there's a rumor that "one quail egg is equivalent to ten chicken eggs." This statement may not be scientifically accurate, but it has certainly boosted business. As soon as Chu Yu's quail eggs were put out, someone accompanying a patient in the hospital came to buy some, saying they wanted to cook them for their relatives or friends in the hospital.
Chu Yu sold dozens of quail eggs, took a bite of a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) during a break, and turned to see a boy with messy hair squatting next to her.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
Shu Hui shook her head with a smile, "He came over at noon, eating roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) while doing his homework. I don't know which question he couldn't answer, but he squatted there for an hour, almost tearing his hair out, and still couldn't solve it."
