When everyone heard this, they relaxed.
The sister-in-law who was not very familiar with Song Shiwei hurried forward to curry favor with her: "Well, Tingyue's family, I heard you were here a long time ago, but I have never met you. Although I know it's a bit embarrassing, your family is in a difficult situation!"
"We have five children in our family, and their cotton-padded jackets are all patched up and have become too thin to wear. Our eldest and second sons have frostbitten arms, and they grew a little taller today. Their cotton-padded jackets are no longer wearable. I... I have no choice but to beg you, can you sell me a few more? Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, thank you so much..."
As she spoke, her eyes turned red and she began to cry.
They all lived in the same family compound, and most people knew her family's situation. It was indeed difficult to raise so many children.
It can be said that their family is not as poor as theirs in the entire family compound!
Someone kind-hearted said, "Weiwei, didn't you say you could still bring it? Why don't you let Sister Jia buy it first? Let her be the first one!"
Sun Meimei and Jian Qiu looked at each other.
"We don't want it this time, you guys take it first!"
"Yes, first you want it from your sister-in-law!"
But there were also families who were in urgent need of cotton clothes, but they were unwilling to do so.
Although Song Shiwei said that they could still get it, who knew when she would go again? What if the factory had finished processing this batch of cotton clothes, wouldn't they be unable to buy it?
Besides, a cotton-padded jacket for five dollars is like a pie in the sky. Who wouldn’t want to grab this benefit first?
"No, I don't agree. Our family is struggling too. Why should we let her buy them first? There are only ten items in total, and there are five children in her family, and she bought them all!"
"Yeah, who knows if there are any more cotton-padded jackets left? Weiwei said there are, but what if the factory has finished processing them?"
"Yeah, yeah, I have four kids at home, so I need two or three too!"
..........
Listening to everyone's chattering, Song Shiwei smiled helplessly.
"Dear sisters-in-law, I can assure you that we still have these cotton-padded jackets. How about this? Sisters-in-law who want one can first ask for one each. I'll go back in the next few days and bring the rest for you!"
After hearing what she said, the sisters-in-law were still a little anxious, but no one argued about anything.
"Okay, I'll take one first. Weiwei, you can bring me three more later!"
"Me too, Weiwei, please bring me five more pieces later!"
When one of the sisters-in-law said this, those who were familiar with her were immediately surprised.
"Five more? You only have one doll, why buy so many?"
The sister-in-law blushed a little and smiled embarrassedly: "This cotton coat is too cheap. I want to go back to my hometown for the New Year to bring a few for my parents and my sister-in-law!"
After hearing her words, it seemed as if a new door had opened up for the others.
They reacted and shouted, "I want six!"
"I want four!"
"I want five!"
"I want three!"
"I want six!"
........
Song Shiwei smiled and agreed: "Okay, okay, I'll help you take care of them!"
Those sisters-in-law didn't know where they got a notebook and pen from, and asked her to write down everything one by one, for fear of missing anyone.
This commotion also attracted other people in the family compound. When they saw that Song Shiwei could get such cheap cotton clothes, they immediately became excited.
"We want it too!"
"I want two too!"
"And me!"
Zhou Xiaomei in the crowd looked a little embarrassed. Her family's cotton-padded jackets had been worn for several years, especially her own, whose clothes were modified from Sun Weidong's old cotton-padded jacket!
I don't know how Song Shiwei has such great ability? She even knows the director of the Qing City Garment Factory!
For a moment, I felt a mixture of jealousy, envy, and just sourness.
Another person who had the same idea as her was Jiang Fengqin. She had caused a big fuss at their house last time and got nothing out of it, so naturally she didn't have a good impression of Song Shiwei.
But there is one biggest difference between Jiang Fengqin and Zhou Xiaomei, that is, she has a bold personality and will not hesitate when encountering anything!
What's more, this cotton coat is obviously a great bargain. If you don't take advantage of it, you'd be a fool.
She immediately came over with a smile.
"Hey, Miss Song, I want four too! Please write them down for me!"
Song Shiwei looked up and saw that it was her, but didn't say anything!
After all, selling this cotton-padded jacket is a profitable business for her. No matter whether the woman is her enemy or not, there is no reason for her to refuse the money when it is given to her door.
So I wrote it down for her.
When Zhou Xiaomei saw this, she couldn't sit still anymore.
But she just couldn't bring herself to do it. After most people had left, she stepped forward and said, "Well, please write it down for me too. I want three!"
After saying that, she ran away.
Song Shiwei: “........”
If you didn't know, you would think there was a dog chasing her.
After everyone had finished counting, Song Shiwei asked Xiao Zhang to help carry their family's seven cotton-padded jackets back home.
When the two little guys saw them come back, they were so excited that they hung on her like octopuses.
"Mom, brother, you're back!"
"Mom, why did you come back just now? I missed you so much!"
Xinxin said as she rubbed her sleeping furry little head against her.
That cute look touched Song Shiwei so much that her heart melted.
I quickly took out the new hairband and hairpins I bought for her from my bag.
When Zhou Xinxin saw it, she was immediately excited.
