Chapter 88
In her previous life, Qin Xiang had seen and used all kinds of electronic products. And because Wang Junsheng's company was engaged in electronic products, many things were available to her as the boss in advance as soon as they were launched on the market.
After her rebirth, she had too many things to consider and had no time to think about the TV. She even bought a radio at home so that she could listen to the news because she had to take the politics test in the college entrance examination.
Looking at the tiny screen, Qin Xiang had no interest at all. She hadn't bought the TV to watch it herself, but to get the store's customers to watch it and watch the evening show with her.
But televisions, especially color TVs, are still rare nowadays.
Especially what happened to Qin Xiang made everyone very excited and curious. Since there was nothing to do late at night, they stayed here.
As soon as eight o'clock arrived, the educational channel began to broadcast.
The first person to catch everyone's eye was Hao Jingjing. Because it was a color TV, the colors of Hao Jingjing's dress were vividly displayed to the audience. Immediately, a girl exclaimed, "The host's dress is from this company."
After the girl's reminder, the others reacted and looked at the plastic model standing by the window. Wasn't the skirt the model was wearing exactly the same as Hao Jingjing's?
It is already very attractive when worn by the model, and now seeing it worn by Hao Jingjing, it seems to have a bit more temperament.
Qin Xiang smiled but said nothing. This was exactly the effect she wanted. She was sure that after tomorrow, many people would come looking for the same style. Even if there were only a few pieces, who would not like the other beautiful clothes after entering the store?
The TV was still on, and the curious customers were reluctant to look away and continued to stare at the screen.
It’s just that the previous program was still going on perfectly. When the host called out Qin Xiang and Jie Zong’s names, everyone in the store looked at Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "Everyone, watch TV."
When everyone saw the videos, they fell silent. One woman even started crying, "Boss Qin, it's really not easy."
"Boss Qin is truly brave, having the courage to divorce. Many women who have experienced this kind of thing would be afraid to speak out, and even if they told their families, they probably wouldn't get support."
This kind of thing happens too often in reality, and some people can't help but sigh.
A middle-aged woman who came with a child sighed and said, "Parents are so pitiful. Boss Qin, your father loves you very much."
Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, my father loves me very much."
She also supported her, and had supported her since she wanted to divorce. This was something Qin Xiang couldn't believe before. And the mother she used to trust was standing against her.
After Qin Xiang and others left the stage on TV, Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone thought the show was over.
Unexpectedly, Hao Jingjing said, "Now, let's interrupt with a news report. This afternoon, the police received a report and took the person who wrote the letter of accusation to the police station in their rental apartment for investigation. The suspect confessed to the incident and admitted that he took this desperate measure out of jealousy of Qin Xiang. In other words, the letter of accusation received by some newspapers is completely false and cannot be trusted. We have learned from other sources that Ms. Cui, who wrote this letter, is the third party in Qin Xiang's ex-husband's affair. We journalists should adhere to the principle of seeking truth from facts and not use personal grudges as an excuse, so as not to waste the country's cultivation of us and the trust of the people."
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Someone immediately shouted, "This is too shameless! They stole someone else's man, and then they can't stand him and want to destroy Boss Qin."
"It's more than shameless, it's a disgrace to humanity. And why can a man who cheats still go to college?"
"I just don't know what kind of university this is. I want to write a letter to report this beastly guy."
Others also spoke up for Qin Xiang.
This is probably the advantage of being in the provincial capital: the residents are generally more educated and more accepting of things like divorce. Or maybe it's because some older people who hate divorce don't show up here.
Qin Xiang felt warm in her heart and was very grateful to be protected like this.
Qin Xiang laughed. "The police will definitely investigate clearly whether it's right or wrong. They won't wrongly accuse a good person, nor will they let a bad person go."
She looked at the people in the store and bowed. "Thank you all for watching TV with me today. I'm very grateful for your concern and support. There's not much I can do, but everyone who makes a purchase in the store today will still receive a 15% discount. I hope everyone enjoys shopping tonight."
The real discounts made the people in the store very happy. They stopped watching TV and went to pick out the clothes they liked. Students liked sportswear, and adult girls went to look for the same clothes as Hao Jingjing or Qin Xiang. The store became busy for a while.
The next morning, several major newspapers in the provincial capital also reported on the incident, but they mainly promoted Qin Xiang's academic performance and diligence, briefly mentioning her marital status. The main focus was on promoting Qin Xiang's spirit of self-improvement, her refusal to bow to fate, and her hardworking and enterprising spirit.
Even so, after reading the newspaper, the public admired and felt sorry for Qin Xiang and flocked to Qin Xiang's shop.
At nine o'clock that morning, Xianglian opened in University Town. Although the provincial university hadn't started yet, the nearby Normal College had already begun classes. Although the number of students was small, people living in the area were flocking in.
Not to mention the big square, there were huge crowds of people, all coming to support Qin Xiang.
Qin Xiang was deeply moved and continued to sell at a 15% discount, which made everyone's impression of her even better.
Even though Qin Xiang's ex-husband was only briefly mentioned on TV and in newspapers, the general public had already begun to condemn Wang Junsheng and the mistress.
The several newspapers that were cheated by Cui Hong yesterday were humiliated, and their leaders were also criticized by the city leaders.
The responsible persons from several newspapers met together, and someone came forward to dig up a lot of Qin Xiang's past affairs from the provincial radio station.
Because the provincial government had issued instructions and they didn't dare to tarnish Qin Xiang's reputation any further, they began reporting on her ex-husband, such as how Wang Junsheng was now a junior at a university in the capital and would graduate next year. For example, they reported that Qin Xiang's ex-husband had already held a wedding banquet in the countryside with his mistress.
Anyway, everything that could be dug up was dug out, even the fact that Cui Lianhua might have colluded with others to give Qin Xiang chin beans was directly written in the newspaper.
As a native of the provincial capital, Huang Yuqin naturally read the newspaper, but she did not expect that the man she liked before would be so despicable and such a rubbish.
When she returned home after the summer vacation and heard people talking about Qin Xiang, she felt disgusted. Why did a good student not study hard and become a self-employed person? At that time, her cousin Huang Rong praised this woman highly.
I didn't expect that one day I would be in contact with her.
After the summer vacation, Wang Junsheng came to the provincial capital, with the natural purpose of getting to know her father through her connections.
After such a long time, Huang Yuqin was almost convinced by Wang Junsheng. They could talk about other things instead of feelings. Wang Junsheng spoke sincerely and told her about his helplessness and difficulties, making her understand how difficult it was for a farmer's son to make a name for himself.
She felt that he was right. If Wang Junsheng was not incompetent, she would not have fallen for this man in the first place.
But life is full of surprises. Huang Yuqin had arranged for her father to meet Wang Junsheng in the next two days.
Now, reality slapped her in the face.
The woman Wang Junsheng wanted to abandon was his second wife, and she was also a mistress. This sanctimonious man was a hypocrite who had cheated on his wife's best friend. He did the most disgusting thing and even complained to her about his grievances.
Where's the face?
Huang Yuqin broke out in a cold sweat. She almost recommended a scumbag to her father.
If her father met such a person and later found out the truth, he would scold her to death.
Huang Yuqin was furious. When she saw Wang Junsheng at noon, she asked directly, "Wang Junsheng, what is your relationship with Qin Xiang?"
"What?" Wang Junsheng was surprised. He looked at Huang Yuqin in shock and couldn't help wondering, how did Huang Yuqin know Qin Xiang?
Huang Yuqin lost the last bit of hope in her heart. She snorted and threw a newspaper to Wang Junsheng. Wang Junsheng took the newspaper and took a look at it. His head suddenly buzzed as if it was about to explode.
No wonder, no wonder the police took Cui Hong away yesterday. It must be because of the letter of complaint Cui Hong wrote.
This idiot is more likely to cause trouble than to do anything else.
It wouldn't be a big deal if Cui Hong was arrested, but now it has become such a big deal and it's all over the newspapers. How can he survive in the provincial capital in the future?
Wang Junsheng looked at the name on it, and even the address was written clearly. It was difficult for him to deny it now.
"Wang Junsheng, I really underestimated you before. I even believed that you really had your reasons and were forced to get married by your parents. I planned to introduce you to my dad, but I didn't expect you to be such a complete scumbag."
Wang Junsheng moved his lips, "Yuqin, listen to me..."
"I'm not listening to you." Huang Yuqin stood up, picked up the teacup in front of her, and without caring whether the water was hot or not, she splashed it directly on Wang Junsheng's face. "You and your current wife are really born scumbags and bitches. You two are really a perfect match together. You want to see my father? Bah, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? You are not worthy of it."
Wang Junsheng looked at Huang Yuqin with a pale face, as if he didn't feel the embarrassment on his face at all. He begged, "Yuqin, please listen to my explanation."
"I'm telling you, Wang Junsheng, you can't make it in the provincial capital anymore."
After saying that, Huang Yuqin picked up her bag and left.
In the provincial capital, Huang Yuqin had never been so embarrassed in her life, and it was brought to her by such a hypocrite.
As soon as she walked out of the door, she saw her cousin Huang Rong head-on, and Huang Yuqin suddenly got a headache.
She and Huang Rong had been quarreling since they were young. If Huang Rong knew about her affair this time, she would definitely laugh at her again.
Unexpectedly, Huang Rong was very excited. "Huang Yuqin, I'm going shopping for clothes. Do you want to come? The store is having a 15% discount today. If you miss this time, you don't know when the next time will be."
Ever since Xiang Ai opened, Huang Rong had been the store's most loyal customer. She'd always buy the latest styles, often bringing her close friends along. This wasn't the first time she'd invited Huang Yuqin, but Huang Yuqin's family was a bit better off than hers, and the two of them didn't get along. Huang Rong simply disdained buying clothes from a privately-owned store, so she'd never accepted her invitation.
Huang Yuqin was stunned. "The 'Xiang Ai' you mentioned?"
"Of course," Huang Rong asked doubtfully. "Didn't you watch the educational channel last night? Didn't you read today's newspaper? The owner of that shop is Qin Xiang. I'm telling you, I really admire her. She's so beautiful and could make a living with just her looks, but she chose to make a living on her own. Not only did she make her own money, she even got accepted into the school and even won the provincial top scorer. You were a talented woman after all. Aren't you curious about such an outstanding person?"
"So what if she's excellent? She's still divorced." It would be a lie to say she wasn't curious, but Huang Yuqin hadn't watched TV yesterday. She only saw Qin Xiang this morning when she was reading the newspaper. The photo of Qin Xiang in the newspaper wasn't very clear, so she had no idea what kind of person she was.
But Huang Yuqin's words completely infuriated Huang Rong. "So what if she's divorced? Doesn't a divorced woman deserve admiration? You're a college student, and you actually said something like that? You must have a brain wrapped in layers of cloth to say something like that. Just pretend I didn't say anything."
Huang Rong was so angry that she left on the spot.
Huang Yuqin stood there feeling somewhat regretful. What she had just said was indeed a bit too much.
Wang Junsheng had already cheated on her with his best friend. Could he have stayed with her for another year without getting a divorce? If it were her, even if she divorced, she would have dealt with the scumbag. How could she just let it go? Was Qin Xiang too kind or too foolish?
After thinking about it, Huang Yuqin realized that she was indeed curious, so she followed Huang Rong.
Qin Xiang was really busy at the moment. There were a lot of people in both stores. There were only a few of them, and they were busy on both sides.
Qin Xiang stayed in the store all morning without going anywhere. She matched clothes for people, collected money and kept accounts, and temporarily handed the task over to He Liping.
Through what happened in the past two days, she also realized that she had to either find someone who understood accounting to manage the accounts, or send He Liping to study accounting. No matter which option she chose, it could not be delayed any longer.
While she was busy, she heard Huang Rong calling her. Qin Xiang smiled and said, "How come you have time to come over?"
"Come over to see you." Huang Rong sighed as she watched the busy scene inside the shop. "I knew your shop would be a big hit, and it's proven true. How's it going? Do you have any pretty dresses?"
"Yes, what else can we do without?" Qin Xiang went over and found her a skirt. It looked unremarkable. Huang Rong frowned, "How can it be good-looking?"
"It suits your skin tone very well, go try it on." Qin Xiang pushed her to try on the skirt. At this time, someone else came into the store.
Qin Xiang said with a smile, "Welcome, you can look around and see if there are any clothes you like."
Even though Huang Yuqin had seen Qin Xiang's photo in the newspaper, she was still shocked when she saw her in person.
How could a scumbag like Wang Junsheng have such good fortune to marry two such beautiful wives?
Although Cui Hong has a bad character, her face is indeed gentle and beautiful. Qin Xiang in front of him has a completely different beauty from Cui Hong. She has an oval face and looks generous and gentle. When she smiles, she gives people a very good impression.
How could Wang Junsheng cheat on such a woman?
But since Qin Xiang was able to be her own boss, she might not be a gentle person. And thinking about Cui Hong, what else did she not know? It was just that Wang Junsheng couldn't control his belt.
The woman in front of me is the real victim.
Qin Xiang looked at the woman in front of her with a look of pity, but she was not curious. She had seen such looks many times in the past two days. She smiled and said, "Just watch first. Call me if you need any help."
Huang Yuqin nodded with a complicated expression. Turning around, she saw Qin Xiang already kindly matching clothes for another customer. After that customer went to try on the clothes, Huang Yuqin pursed her lips and said, "Can you help me match one set of clothes? No, two sets."
Qin Xiang smiled, and this smile was more sincere. "Of course."
It seems that a rich man has come. Not to mention two sets, even three or five sets will be fine.
Qin Xiang took a look at Huang Yuqin and picked out three or four sets of clothes for her, asking Huang Yuqin to try them on.
At this time, Huang Rong came out of the fitting room and saw Huang Yuqin holding the clothes in her hands. Huang Rong curled her lips and said, "Didn't you say you wouldn't come?"
Huang Yuqin rolled her eyes at her and said, "It's not your store."
Huang Rong pursed her lips, watched her go in, and then said to Qin Xiang, "That's my cousin."
Qin Xiang was surprised, "Then I'll give her something."
"Don't," Huang Rong said maliciously, "I'm telling you, her family is much better off than mine. Just ask for a higher price. It's a waste if you don't make any money."
She was still muttering in her heart: Paying more money will be considered as Huang Yuqin's apology.
But Qin Xiang shook her head and said seriously, "That won't work. Let's just do what needs to be done." She whispered, "Play the long game and catch the big fish."
Huang Rong couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Huang Rong held the clothes and said, "But you really have a way with matching clothes. They look really good on you. I want both of them."
Huang Rong went to pay the bill, but she stood there and waited for Huang Yuqin to come out and see how it went.
From childhood to adulthood, she and Huang Yuqin had not had a good relationship. In fact, if she were to say it, Huang Yuqin was jealous of her because she was prettier, but little did she know that she also envied Huang Yuqin for being good at studying, getting into college, and having a capable father.
"Just wait, I'm going to get busy." The store was short-staffed, so Qin Xiang, the boss, certainly couldn't sit idle, so he was busy all the time.
After a while, Huang Yuqin came out. She felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Huang Rong, but she didn't want to interrupt Qin Xiang who was talking to someone else, so she asked Huang Yuqin, "Hey, does this outfit look good on me?"
Huang Rong rolled her eyes. "My last name is Wei? Did you change yours too?"
Huang Yuqin held her breath, and said, "Cousin, does my dress look good?"
"She looks good." Huang Rong said the truth. "If you just come here and ask Qin Xiang to recommend someone, she'll definitely be suitable. It's a pity that she'll start school soon. Who will recommend someone to me next time?"
Huang Yuqin thought secretly, when Qin Xiang goes to the capital to study, will he open a shop there as well?
Huang Yuqin wasn't the only one who thought this way. Others also thought this way. Even Qin Xiang herself was thinking this way.
She definitely needs to open one, but she doesn't have the funds or energy for it yet. She also needs to adjust to the new school schedule, and she also needs to figure out her supply issues.
Qin Xiang wouldn't open a store in the capital without thorough preparation. She had to wait until her studies were on track and the two stores had stabilized before making any plans.
The entire mid-to-late 1980s and the 1990s were the golden period for her career development. She had no shortage of opportunities to show her talents. Her current idea is to use these two stores to save more money and make more money, then buy a suitable storefront in the capital, and then build her own factory and create her own brand.
Qin Xiang was filled with energy when she thought of these things. She was the one who felt happy and energetic when she was happy.
As for Wangjiazhuang, everyone in Wangjiazhuang also watched the entire TV broadcast at the secretary's house. Someone even delivered newspapers to Wangjiazhuang from the town the next day.
Now that’s great! The Wang family, which had finally quieted down, has become famous again.
Many people were waiting to see the Wang family's troubles and wait for the Wang family to regret, but no one expected that one day, people from the town police station suddenly came and took Cui Lianhua away, saying that they wanted to investigate Cui Lianhua's framing of the prospective college student. Even Qin Xiang's sister-in-law Tian Zhongmei was taken away.
As soon as the person was taken away, Wang Dazhu sat down on the ground.
He didn't understand the rest. What if the old woman was sentenced? Would Wang Junsheng still be able to be a cadre in the future?
