Chapter 1064 The Heroine’s Vicious Adoptive Mother (3)
The baby boy picked up by Xiao Shichu stayed in the hospital for a few days. When he was no longer seriously injured, he was sent to an orphanage. It happened that the orphanage was the Sunshine Orphanage where the heroine was. This was not surprising, after all, it was the only orphanage nearby.
Xiao Shichu learned about this from a neighbor who helped call the police that day. The neighbor also invited Xiao Shichu to visit the baby boy at the orphanage, but Xiao Shichu refused.
"Boss, a big shopping mall opened nearby, and all the business in our store has been taken away." Wang Fang sighed and said to Xiao Shichu. It was the weekend, and it should have been the busiest time for the store, but the flow of people today was not as large as before. After Wang Fang found out the reason, she became a little worried. After all, a large part of her salary was made up of commissions. The more clothes she sold, the higher her salary would be.
The mall itself is a comprehensive commercial center, with restaurants, clothing, luxury goods, children's playgrounds... everything is available. As soon as it opened, it attracted many curious customers. As one thing grows, the other shrinks, so the business in the pedestrian street is not so good? As a member of the pedestrian street, Xiao Shichu's clothing store naturally became deserted.
"Don't worry, everyone is just curious about the mall and thinks it's new, so they rush there to join in the fun. The clothes in our store are affordable, while the clothes in the mall are mid- to high-priced, which is different from our positioning, and our target customer groups won't overlap too much, so after a while, our store's business will slowly recover." Xiao Shichu comforted Wang Fang.
"Really? I hope this period won't be too long, otherwise my salary will be terrible." Wang Fang managed to regain some confidence.
"By the way, boss, have you decided what kind of pet you want to get?" Wang Fang asked again.
Xiao Shichu shook his head: "No, now imagine, my house is not big, if I have pets, it's not good to lock them up in the house all day."
"Then why not keep a cat? Cats don't like to go out anyway, they just like to sleep." Wang Fang thought of the cat she raised in her hometown to catch mice.
"Well, let's talk about it later." Xiao Shichu felt that he was a little lazy and didn't even want to keep a pet.
At Sunshine Orphanage, Xiaoyun looked out the door for a long time, but didn't see the person she wanted to see. An employee asked her, "Xiaoyun, you've been waiting here all day. Who are you waiting for?"
Xiaoyun said shyly, "Aunt Liu, I, I want to meet the beautiful aunt who talked to the dean's mother before."
"Which pretty lady?" the staff lady asked in confusion, "It seems like the dean hasn't seen anyone recently."
"Yes, some time ago, there was a young-looking lady who wanted to adopt a child in our orphanage. But then for some reason she didn't come anymore and just donated some money. The director was quite disappointed." Another staff member heard what the two were saying and interrupted.
"There is such a thing?" The employee glanced at Xiaoyun, who was looking forward to it. Xiaoyun was already five or six years old and knew what adoption was. The employee understood that she must be hoping that someone would adopt her now, but the lady never came again. It would be strange if Xiaoyun was not disappointed.
"Aunt Liu, will that beautiful aunt come to our place again?" Xiaoyun asked the employee expectantly with her big black eyes.
The employee looked into her pure and innocent eyes, and suddenly felt sad. She said, "I don't know, maybe that beautiful aunt is very busy and has no time to come again..."
"Oh..." Xiaoyun turned around and went back disappointedly without looking out again.
"Alas, Xiaoyun is such a well-behaved and lovely child, why is there no one willing to adopt her?" the employee said to her colleagues with emotion.
A colleague also sighed: "Maybe it's not our destiny yet."
Xiao Shichu didn't know that even if she gave up the idea of adopting Xiaoyun, Xiaoyun still missed her.
"Boss, does this skirt look good on me?" A slightly stout girl with dark skin tried on a white high-waisted skirt and asked Xiao Shichu.
Xiao Shichu looked at her carefully and said, "It fits her well. The high-waist design raises your waistline a lot, making you look long-legged and thin-waisted. Your figure is very curvy, and it suits your figure very well. But I think it would be better if you changed to a gray-green one. Gray-green is more versatile, and it's gentle and steady, which suits you better."
"Really? Then I'll try the gray-green one." When the girl heard what Xiao Shichu said, she immediately went to try another skirt with great interest.
After she changed out and looked at herself in the mirror, she felt that she looked better than before. She immediately believed what Xiao Shichu said: "Boss, you really have a sharp eye. I really am more suitable for gray-green. Then I'll take this one!"
"Okay, I'll pack it for you." Xiao Shichu packed it up quickly and paid the girl.
Wang Fang came back from the bathroom at this time. Seeing the customer who just left with new clothes, she immediately said to Xiao Shichu with admiration: "Boss, another deal was made. You are really amazing. From what I saw today, you have sold seven or eight pieces of clothes. You are so amazing. Teach me."
While tidying up the clothes messed up by the customers, Xiao Shichu said, "You need to understand some clothing matching techniques and color aesthetics. You also need to consider the characteristics of the customers' body shape, skin color and appearance to recommend suitable clothes to them, so as to achieve the effect of highlighting their strengths and avoiding their weaknesses. However, this kind of skill requires a lot of learning and practice. It is best to practice until you become proficient. I will find a few books for you to read."
"Okay, okay, I will study hard!" Wang Fang was very happy. She was very motivated to make money.
As expected, the next day, Xiao Shichu went to the bookstore and bought several books on clothing matching and clothing market magazines, and asked Wang Fang to study them when she was free.
When Xiao Shichu was busy with his own small business, one day he suddenly received a call from Director Chen of the Sunshine Orphanage. She said that the money Xiao Shichu had donated had been used to allow a sick child in the orphanage to undergo surgery. Now the child was discharged from the hospital, and if Xiao Shichu was free, he could come and see the child.
Xiao Shichu originally wanted to refuse, but Dean Chen said that after the child knew that it was her donation that saved him, he was very grateful to her and wanted to say thank you to her in person.
Xiao Shichu had no choice but to agree to find time to visit the child.
After the business in the clothing store entered the off-season, Xiao Shichu had some free time, so he bought some books, toys and snacks and went to the orphanage.
Dean Chen had been waiting for her at the door for a long time. Seeing that she had brought many things with her, he was extremely grateful: "I'm sorry to have asked Miss Xiao to spend so much money to buy so many things. It's already very good that you can come to see the children. I'm really sorry to have asked you to spend money..."
