Chapter 172: Meeting Xing Gongan
Xu Hehua agreed generously.
Her home is not far from the garment factory. It is a staff dormitory of the garment factory, with two bedrooms and a living room.
She, her stepmother, and her stepsister slept in one room.
Her half brother shared a room with their father.
Another brother went to the countryside.
Therefore, the family did not live in a crowded environment because there was space in the room for three large cabinets, each containing their personal belongings.
When Xu Hehua’s stepmother saw Tian Mengya coming, she came forward with a smile.
Tian Mengya had a cold face.
Xu Hehua even pushed her stepmother out and took Chen Qing on a thorough tour.
Soon, Xu's father's roar could be heard outside the house: "Look at your attitude. You've been working for so many years, and you don't even know how to respect your elders?!"
Even through the door, the three of them could clearly feel Mr. Xu's anger.
Xu Hehua smiled apologetically at Chen Qing: "I have all the betrothal gifts given by my boyfriend in my hands. He is very angry, so leave him alone."
Chen Qing smiled and gave a thumbs up: "Great!"
Xu Hehua chuckled.
Instead, open the cabinet.
The cabinet that belonged to her had three locks, and it took her some time to open them herself.
When the cabinet was opened, Chen Qing saw two large compartments on the top layer. One compartment was filled with quilts, one was filled with food and some things for little girls, and the entire area below was filled with clothes!
Before coming, Chen Qing guessed that Xu Hehua, as a female worker in a garment factory, would have no shortage of clothes.
But I was still surprised when I saw the full store of long-sleeved clothes.
"You have a lot of clothes."
"Yes, I am the team leader of the garment workshop in a clothing factory. It is easy for me to get defective cloth. Usually, I have cloth and money. I send half to my eldest brother and spend the rest on clothes, so I have more clothes."
Xu Hehua smiled shyly.
Because she always messes up her clothes, many people call her a spendthrift.
Anyway, Xu Hehua did it on purpose, she would rather eat and spend all the money than give a penny to her family!!!
Chen Qing was overjoyed: "It's great to have so many clothes. I just want to make you a wedding dress by remaking some old clothes."
"Remaking old clothes?"
"That's right. The dress is made from several of your old clothes. It will become a beautiful wedding dress on your wedding day. I promise it will be unique! After your wedding, I can help you unpack it the next day and you can continue to wear the clothes. That way it won't be wasted and it can achieve the disposable wedding dress you mentioned."
Nowadays, people wear their wedding dresses repeatedly, otherwise Chen Qing would not dare to take the initiative to revamp the bride's old clothes.
Xu Hehua's eyes lit up after listening: "I understand what you said, then see what kind of clothes you need."
Chen Qing asked again: "Do you have any requirements for your wedding dress?"
Xu Hehua thought seriously: "Isn't it beautiful? Don't tie myself up too much, because I have to walk around that day."
"good."
Chen Qing agreed.
I squatted down and started choosing clothes.
Before coming, she had a rough idea of the clothes in her mind and quickly selected four pieces of clothing.
They are a red skirt, a navy blue skirt, a navy blue dacron shirt, and a dark red stand-up collar top.
Chen Qing then said to Xu Hehua, "Because we want to show the fashion of the new revolution, I need to sew a five-pointed star on the navy blue Dacron and cut off the collar. But I can sew it back on for you. I promise that no one else can see the hidden thread. Is that okay?"
"OK."
Xu Hehua had no objection.
She had seen the clothes Chen Qing customized for Tian Mengya before. They were so beautiful that she offered to buy them from Tian Mengya at double the price, but Tian Mengya refused!
Now she is looking forward to her wedding dress!
Chen Qing also talked about other changes to the clothes: "I will draw a sketch for you, and I will ask Tian Mengya to give it to you the day after tomorrow..."
"No, I trust you."
“Yes.”
Chen Qing said firmly.
Only when the sketch is approved by Party A, will the actual drawing be less likely to be picked on after it comes out.
As the second party, she doesn't want to revise the version countless times.
Xu Hehua: "Okay."
After the discussion, the three of them went out together.
Seeing Chen Qing holding a pile of clothes, Xu Hehua's stepmother asked in surprise, "Are you here to borrow some clothes?"
Chen Qing nodded.
The woman's expression changed instantly, one full of disdain.
Looking at Chen Qing's appearance and the fact that he came with Tian Mengya, I thought he was some leader's family member, but I didn't expect him to be such a poor guy.
Xu Hehua dragged Chen Qing away and said, "Don't talk to someone with a brain full of water."
She sent the two of them out, and Chen Qing and Tian Mengya returned to the garment factory to move the fabrics.
Tian Mengya looked at Chen Qing worriedly: "Is your hand okay?"
"It's okay." Chen Qing weighed the cloth in his hand. Because it was woolen, it weighed about four or five pounds.
Tian Mengya looked guilty: "I just saw my mother riding a bicycle to pick me up. I have to go first."
"It's okay. See you tomorrow."
After saying goodbye to Tian Mengya, Chen Qing went home alone. On the way home, she was already thinking about how to maximize the use of the cloth.
As Chen Qing was thinking, her brain stopped working. Obviously, something weighing four or five kilograms was not heavy, but after walking two kilometers, her shoulders began to ache.
"Comrade Chen."
A deep voice came from behind.
Chen Qing looked back: "Public Security Officer Xing."
In the night, the muscular man looked like a small mountain.
Xing Jianbai walked forward and nodded at Chen Qing. Seeing her holding so many fabrics, he felt a little envious: "You went to the garment factory?"
Chen Qing smiled and said, "Well, my colleague's cousin works in a garment factory."
Xing Jianbai saw her shoulders trembling slightly, so he said, "You are going home now, right? I'll take it for you, as a way of thanking you for preparing so many things for me during the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Chen Qing hurriedly said: "That was originally to repay you."
"Let me get it."
Xing Jianbai took the cloth for her.
Chen Qing was very grateful and asked, "Xing Gongan, why are you here?"
Xing Jianbai said succinctly: "I came here to investigate some things, and I just happened to send you back on the way."
"Oh." Chen Qing didn't know what to talk about with him.
The night was warm and the weather was getting cooler as autumn approached. The temperature difference between day and night was large. The wind whistled on people, giving Chen Qing goose bumps all over his body.
Xing Jianbai asked: "How are you doing recently?"
Chen Qing was puzzled: "I'm fine."
Xing Jianbai said, "I saw Researcher He standing next to you before, and I thought you two were already in a relationship. Turns out you're not?"
Chen Qing pursed her lips: "Yes..."
The weather was getting chilly, but Xing Jianbai was still stabbing her heart with his knife.
Xing Jianbai heard her exact answer and raised his lips: "Then will you consider others?"
As they said this, the two walked into a narrow alley. This alley was some distance away from the machinery factory. There were no street lights, and they could only see the road clearly by the faint moonlight.
It was narrow, dark, and silent, and the distance suddenly got closer, and the man's tall stature brought a natural sense of oppression.
Chen Qing's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes gradually became sharp: "What do you mean?"
