Chapter 206
Qin Xiang was embarrassed. To be honest, she had really forgotten about this matter.
She always felt that there was something she hadn't done, but she never remembered it. It
was only when Meng Huaiqing told her that she remembered it.
Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Since you remember it, just do it quickly. Assistant Liu is in the capital now, so just let him run errands for you. Don't refuse. He can use my connections in the capital and can get it done quickly. Otherwise, if you do it bit by bit, I don't know when you can get it done."
Listening to his analysis, Qin Xiang did not refuse, "Okay, but I have to thank him very much."
Meng Huaiqing exaggerated, "Then I envy him. How about I wait for me to go back and do it for you personally?"
"Okay, okay, you will be back tomorrow." Qin Xiang deliberately teased.
Meng Huaiqing smiled, "I'll make arrangements as soon as possible."
However, he made such arrangements as soon as possible, but when Assistant Liu helped her to complete all the formalities in the company, he still didn't come back, and he couldn't find anyone after calling several times. One time, Ge Lijuan answered the phone and said that Meng Huaiqing was very busy recently and often rested in the company at night.
Qin Xiang thanked him, and Ge Lijuan said gently, "You don't have to worry, Huaiqing is a self-loving person, even if you are not by his side, he will not do anything rash."
Hearing her say this, Qin Xiang was stunned, and then agreed, "Of course, I trust him on this point."
If Meng Huaiqing really valued women, he should have started having sex after living for so many years. There are all kinds of women like him. But when the two of them had their first intimate contact, their reactions could not deceive anyone, and this was Meng Huaiqing's first time.
Youthful and passionate, Qin Xiang almost indulged him.
A handsome, loyal, and slightly shy man always makes women unable to resist.
Ge Lijuan smiled, "Just trust each other. If someone from the Jiang family tells you something in some way, don't believe it or pay attention to it. No one on their side can control Huaiqing. He can only decide his own life."
Listening to the gentle voice of the old lady, Qin Xiang finally understood why Meng Huaiqing was so warm, because he had a good grandmother.
Although Ge Lijuan had to consider other things on some matters, her heart that loved Meng Huaiqing was unquestionable. Just because the old man pulled Meng Huaiqing back to the journey, he deserves her respect.
After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiang couldn't sleep.
She missed Meng Huaiqing.
She didn't have time to think about him when she was busy, but she would miss Meng Huaiqing easily when she was alone.
But it was useless, she had no time.
She had to make money and study.
With the domestic fashion design competition approaching, Qin Xiang no longer ran around, and the store affairs were directly handed over to Mi Hongjun. Who made Mi Hongjun the deputy general manager of their company? He has to take care of it.
As for her boss, ahem, she was busy.
This time, she not only had to design the drawings, but also had to make the samples. This not only considered the design and drawing skills, but also had to know how to use the sewing machine.
But this is not a problem for Qin Xiang, because there is a brand new sewing machine from Hong Kong in her courtyard. It is a gift from Meng Huaiqing.
The people in the dormitory have already told Qin Xiang that some places that need machine sewing can be used, and other places are almost all sewn by hand.
Even in winter, there are students designing spring and autumn dresses.
But Qin Xiang thinks that the simpler the clothes look, the harder they are to design. In order to design outstanding clothes, other factors must be considered. Qin Xiang chose the winter season, modified it several times after designing, and then prepared the fabric and started.
Due to the limited conditions of other roommates, Qin Xiang generously provided them with fabric for clothes. In order to be more convenient, Qin Xiang set up the place for making clothes at home, ran back after class every day, and then started making clothes.
Because the house was renovated by Meng Huaiqing, two tons of coal were bought and piled at the foot of the south wall. If Qin Xiang hadn't refused, Meng Huaiqing would have asked his team of chefs to cook for Qin Xiang every day and send it to school.
The first thing Qin Xiang did when she got home was to light the floor heater. There was a large charcoal stove connected to the outside of the floor heater. After the fire was lit, she filled a large kettle with water and placed it on top. It was very convenient for both water and heating.
While the stove was heating, Qin Xiang first took some warm water to wash her hands and face. It was impossible for her to cook. She ate at school when classes were late, and came back to work when classes were early. She went out to eat at mealtime, and her father would occasionally come to deliver it.
After cleaning up, the house became warm, and Qin Xiang began to make clothes on the big table in the study.
Winter clothes require more materials and are more troublesome to make. This is the first piece of clothing Qin Xiang has made in her life, so she was particularly careful and attentive when making it, fearing that there would be something wrong.
After working for a few days, the clothes were finally finished. Qin Xiang tried them on herself and couldn't help frowning when she raised her arms. Her armpits seemed a little tight, which meant that the proportions were wrong.
Qin Xiang took out the design draft and recalculated it, and then modified it. After the modification, there was no problem, and then she handed in her design draft and the clothes.
Other people in the dormitory also came over one after another to use the sewing machine. Every time she felt the warmth in the house, she couldn't help but sigh, "Qin Xiang, you are so comfortable here. I heard that courtyards are cold, but you are not cold here."
Guan Yuping smiled and said, "Look at the pile of coal at the foot of her south wall. Can ordinary people store so much?"
In general, it is a big deal for a large courtyard to buy such a ton of charcoal. After buying it, it will not be burned directly because it is too wasteful. They will find yellow mud to break the charcoal and mix it together, press it into honeycomb coal, dry it piece by piece, and then use it in the honeycomb coal stove.
Even if the family conditions in their courtyard are generally good, no one dares to use coal like this.
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "It's not that there is no other way. If there was heating, I wouldn't have bothered to have this."
Now all newly built houses have heating, which is why many people prefer to buy buildings.
Thinking of the new house, Qin Xiang asked Zhao Wenna, "By the way, have you bought your house?" "
Yes." Zhao Wenna was very excited, "Just like you said, there is heating inside, but unfortunately I can't live in it this year. I will invite you to visit next year when it is repaired."
Others were envious and happy for her. Originally, except for Qin Xiang and Guan Yuping, the people in their dormitory were all about the same. Now Zhao Wenna has become the first person in their dormitory to buy a house.
Dingxiang sighed, "I also hope to buy a house in the capital as soon as possible."
Originally, she wanted to buy a house and bring her parents over to live a good life, but when she thought of the situation at home, she swallowed the words. If her family knew that she bought a house, they would probably force her to give the house to her brother.
Thinking of this possibility, Ding Xiang said to Zhao Wenna, "Wenna, you can't let your parents know about buying a house, otherwise they will take the house away and give it to your brother."
From childhood to adulthood, Ding Xiang was instilled with the idea that girls are not as good as boys, and as a girl, she should pay for boys. Later, educated youth came to the village, and she saw a different world, so she often went to study with them. Later, when she went to school, she cried and begged to go to school. Her parents didn't agree, but her aunt couldn't bear it and paid for her to go to school for two years. However, two years later, her uncle passed away, and her aunt had to stop supporting her. She was able to go to junior high school because several educated youth in the village saw that she really wanted to go to school and was pitiful, so each of them chipped in some money to let her go.
Dingxiang dropped out of school after graduating from junior high school. Fortunately, there were several educated youth in the village who had graduated from high school and secretly taught her knowledge, so she was able to enter university when the college entrance examination was resumed.
Fortunately, several of those educated youth brothers and sisters also passed the exam, but unfortunately they were too far away and had less contact. But Dingxiang always remembered what they said to her, that girls should also be good, not give all their money to their parents, and be good to themselves.
Hearing this, Zhao Wenna shook her head and said, "I didn't tell them, but I think even if I told them, they wouldn't accept it. After all, what about my two brothers? If I leave and cause a fight between my two sons, my parents will be even more upset. Of course, I also have my own plans. If they don't have a good life, I will definitely give them back when I have the ability, but the house is my bottom line, and I won't give it to anyone."
Dingxiang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her say this.
Qin Xiang looked at them and said, "If we all work hard, we will be able to buy a house in the capital sooner or later. But I also advise you a few words, if you have money or save money, buy a house as soon as you can, I have a feeling that the house price will get higher and higher in the future."
Like in the future, the house in the capital is sky-high, and the price of a courtyard house with a better location can be over 100 million.
With that 100 million, she can just lie down and live, there is no courtyard house yet.
Now that she has money, she should take action in time, because courtyard houses are not easy to buy, otherwise she would want to buy a few more, wait for them to be hyped up, and then sell them, and then lie down.
Ding Xiang and the others nodded repeatedly, as if they were injected with chicken blood, "After submitting the design draft, we have to go out as tour guides on the weekend."
Several people were stimulated by Zhao Wenna and said that they would save money and buy a house.
Even Guan Yuping was eager to make a move, "Do you think I should save money to buy a house?"
Qin Xiang glanced at her, "What do you think? Can you stay at home forever?"
Guan Yuping curled her lips, "Don't even mention a lifetime. I'm in college for the next two years, and my mother can't wait for me to fall in love with one of the sons of the He family and marry him so that there will be room for her beloved little son."
The military compound also has its ups and downs. The Guan family is going downhill, and the house they lived in originally was not big. With the addition of new members over the years, it has become more and more crowded. Guan Yuping's sister-in-law has long been unhappy with Guan Yuping.
Ding Xiang advised, "Then let's save money together. I heard that after the construction of this batch in the suburbs, more will be built. When the time comes, we can buy a place and live next to each other."
"That's great." Ming Chuan Xiu was also tempted.
Mei Lin smiled, "In fact, we have this confidence because a local tycoon gave us the opportunity."
Several people looked at Qin Xiang and said in unison, "Thank you, Mr. Qin."
This thank you, although simple, also expressed their thoughts.
Look at other classmates, they are still suffering now, unlike them, who are led by Qin Xiang and have money in their pockets and don't have to worry about food and drink.
Qin Xiang waved her hand and said, "Not worth mentioning."
Within a few days, all the designs were submitted, and Qin Xiang was able to have some free time.
At the end of November, the first snow of the year finally fell. The heavy snow flakes made the entire capital exceptionally beautiful.
Qin Xiang looked up at the bare poplar tree outside the yard. There was a lot of snow on the branches, which was very beautiful under the sun.
Qin Xiang suddenly felt a little stuffy in her nose when she woke up in the morning, and then her throat felt a little itchy.
Oh no, I probably caught a cold.
This was the first time she had such an experience after being reborn for nearly two years.
Qin Xiang cleared her throat and felt very uncomfortable.
She didn't hesitate, put on her clothes, and ran to the hospital without even washing her face.
I don't know what happened this winter. There are so many people in the hospital. Most of them have colds. Some people go directly to the infusion hall to get an IV drip. Qin Xiang took a breath and looked around. Wow, there are so many people.
They lined up to register, to see the doctor, and to get medicine. It was already past eleven o'clock when they got the medicine.
As soon as I came out of the door, I saw a jeep opened and He Chenghua came out of the car with a hat on his head.
Qin Xiang's mood became worse. He pretended not to see it, moved his toes, and went around to the side.
However, after taking two steps, the road in front of him was blocked.
Qin Xiang looked at him expressionlessly, "He Chenghua, is this interesting?"
He Chenghua's face was still a little pale, maybe because he hadn't recovered from the injury, he looked much more depressed than before.
"Qin Xiang, let's talk." He Chenghua said hoarsely.
Qin Xiang had a cold, a severe headache, and felt dizzy. He just wanted to go back and have a hot meal and take medicine, so he didn't have time to talk to He Chenghua.
She refused directly, "Sorry, I'm in a hurry."
"Are you sick?" He Chenghua seemed to have just seen the medicine bag she brought for her injury, frowned, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"
Qin Xiang looked up at him and said, "He Chenghua, this has nothing to do with you. Do you know what my biggest wish is now?"
Without waiting for his answer, Qin Xiang said directly, "That is to completely draw a clear line with you and never have anything to do with you again. Because, it's really annoying."
After saying that, Qin Xiang walked around him. He Chenghua raised his hand for a long time and then grabbed her, "I'll take you home."
"No need." She shook off He Chenghua and trotted to the door.
He Chenghua stood there and shouted, "Qin Xiang, why are you running..."
It would be strange if she didn't run.
He Chenghua stood there for a long time without moving. At this time, Liu Fanglin came out of the hospital clinic building with a female comrade and introduced her to He Chenghua happily, "Chenghua, come and meet her. This is your uncle Zhao's daughter. When you were little..."
Before she could finish her words, He Chenghua got into the car as if he didn't hear her at all, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Liu Fanglin asked anxiously, "Chenghua, what are you doing?"
Unfortunately, He Chenghua turned a deaf ear and chased Qin Xiang directly.
