Shan Mianzhi valued Zhang Hongmei's caution even more; this girl was meticulous in her thinking. Such a person wouldn't make any big mistakes.
Everyone, the meeting is adjourned. It's been a bit long, and Zhang Hongmei is five minutes late again. She really wants to be a good student, so why does she always end up doing the opposite?
It was Friday, and Liu Jingze and Shan Mianzhi walked home with Zhang Hongmei after school.
Zhou Jianwei watched the three people's backs, twitched the corners of his mouth, and left as well.
"Hongmei, I'd like to come over for a meal. Are you welcome?"
Zhang Hongmei rolled her eyes; she always felt like she was rolling her eyes when she was with Shan Mianzhi.
"Welcome, it's an honor to have you here."
"Jingze, when will your furniture arrive?"
"Arrives on Sunday."
"Let's eat at Xinyuan then. I'm too lazy to cook, it's too tiring."
The three returned to Xinyuan. "What dishes does Aunt Li have at home?"
"There are two cabbages and some meat that Xiao Li brought over. The Party Secretary will be coming over for dinner tomorrow."
"Chairman Shan, how about we have dumplings? Cabbage and pork dumplings?"
"That's great, I want to eat dumplings too."
"Aunt Li, let's make dumplings. I'll help in a bit."
"No need for you. I can prepare the meal for just a few people in a bit. You can rest. Hongmei, how about you have your Uncle Li bring you lunch every day? You've lost weight."
"No need, I'm not thinner at all, it's just that I look thinner in a sweater. Let's go talk to each other about something, and then Uncle Li will call us."
"Okay, go ahead, I'll bring you some tea in a bit."
The three of them went to the study. "Let me start," said the teacher. "We're not talking about work today. You two can talk about it yourselves. I'm tired and don't want to think about anything."
"Hehe, already tired?" Liu Jingze walked to Zhang Hongmei's side and found it amusing to see her acting like a spoiled child.
"I'm tired. Once the study newspaper is finished, I'll give up."
"Hehe, that won't do. I'm planning to add four more people to your group, and you'll train a few more."
"I can't. I'm still a seedling, in the stage where I need to be nurtured. What ability do I have to nurture others?"
"Aren't you going to separate finance and economics?"
"I haven't thought about it. I'll just follow the old rules. Don't cause trouble, or I won't do it."
What are your plans for the Hongmei peripheral market?
Zhang Hongmei gave Liu Jingze a resentful look and said, "I already said we're not talking about work. You two chat, I'm going to lie down for a while."
Zhang Hongmei returned to her bedroom, lay on her bed, and became angrier the more she thought about it. Why did she have to show off again?
I was planning to go to the beach on the weekend, but that's all off now. I don't even know when I'll have the time.
Zhang Hongmei suddenly jumped up and went to the kitchen. "Aunt Li, I'm going to cut out a shirt in a little while. Could you finish it before Brother Zhang comes tomorrow?"
"Okay, no problem, don't worry."
"Alright, I'll go cut it right away." Zhang Hongmei thought of a good candidate for advertising. If Zhang Shouyi wore a Zhongshan suit, it would definitely become popular.
There's also some woolen fabric I bought back in my hometown in the space, but the size is a problem. I need to go back to Shuren Hutong to have the fabric inspected. As for the size, Zhang Shouyi's figure is very standard, and he can find some ready-made clothes in the space to compare with, so it should be fine.
"Jingze, you two chat. I'm going back to Shuren Hutong to get my things. I'll be right back."
"I'll go."
"No need, I'll definitely be back in half an hour."
As soon as Zhang Hongmei got home, she went into her spatial storage and found a woolen cloth, then pulled out the Zhongshan suit she had disassembled last time. After measuring it for a while, she cut it out in less than ten minutes, and then made a lining out of pure cotton fabric. She never expected she had the potential to be a tailor. Amazing!
He hurriedly left the space and rode his bike back to Xinyuan.
I kept thinking about how this woolen fabric was royal blue, and I wondered where I could find buttons to match it.
I'll go check out the building tomorrow morning. I'll make sure Zhang Shouyi wears a Zhongshan suit to work tomorrow afternoon—it'll be a living advertisement.
Back at Xinyuan, Aunt Li had finished making dumplings, and Uncle Li was tending the fire; dinner would be ready soon.
This meal of dumplings made Zhang Hongmei realize that Shan Mianzhi was a real foodie; he ate a full sixty dumplings—he could eat so much!
After the two boys finished eating, they went back to school. Zhang Hongmei handed the cut-out clothes to Aunt Li.
"Thank you for your hard work tonight, Aunt Li. I hope Brother Zhang can wear this outfit tomorrow."
"Don't worry, Hongmei, I'll definitely finish it."
The next morning, Zhang Hongmei saw the dress. Aunt Li had even used a teacup to iron out all the seams, making it look exceptionally neat, and the stitching on the lining was also particularly dense.
"Aunt Li, I'll go to the building later to see which buttons would look good? Is there anything you're missing at home?"
"No, your Uncle Li went to the supply station. Go and come back quickly."
Zhang Hongmei wandered around the first floor for a bit, then went up to the second floor. She really liked the small boxes of buttons she saw. Finally, she chose a large black button, bought five, and then went back downstairs.
As soon as I got downstairs, I saw Yu Hongxia. "Squad leader, my relative is here. Why don't you two talk now?"
"Okay, thank you for your trouble."
"How could that be? This is one of the things I will never forget in my life. I never thought that I would be able to make a contribution to the students of the school as I am about to graduate. Moreover, my name will be in the history of the school, and I will have left my own mark on the Capital University."
Zhang Hongmei: You think too much.
The two went up to the second floor and found Yu Hongxia's uncle.
The two happily reached a sales agreement, with Yu Hongxia and Wang Jingchang responsible for negotiating the subsequent sales contract and pricing.
When I got home, I gave the button to Aunt Li.
Zhang Hongmei hurried to finish her homework; she couldn't afford to lose sight of the bigger picture.
Aunt Li finished sewing the buttons and brought them over to Zhang Hongmei.
The clothes hanging on the hanger look quite nice; Zhang Shouyi would look very refined in them.
When Zhang Shouyi arrived, Zhang Hongmei hadn't finished her homework yet. She decided to finish it when she got back to Shuren Hutong that night.
"Brother Zhang, would you like to try this outfit on?"
"Made for me?"
"Hmm, why don't you give it a try?"
Zhang Shouyi was a natural clothes hanger; even with such rough stitching, he exuded an air of nobility.
Zhang Hongmei held the mirror and stood a distance away so that Zhang Shouyi could see her clearly.
"Hmm, not bad, did you make this?"
"I cut it myself, Aunt Li made it. What do you think, Brother Zhang? Do you think it looks good?"
"fine."
"Yes, you look good in anything. Brother Zhang, could you do me a favor and wear this shirt to work for the next few days to help us spread the word?"
"Okay, I always wear it."
"Hehe, no need. It will be on the market in a week. Let our young and handsome chairman show everyone what it looks like first."
"Hehe, okay, I'll wear it for a week. I'll help you wear it again if you cut it later."
"Thanks, I've reached an agreement with the building management, and it will be available for sale next week. If anyone asks, just say you don't know."
