On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Sheng Qian also received red envelopes from Hou Guifang and Long Haifeng.
Sheng Qian was stunned for a moment when she received the red envelope.
These days, there aren't the elaborate red envelopes of later generations; they're just rolled up in red paper and handed to her.
"Go on."
Hou Guifang took Sheng Qian's hand and stuffed the two red envelopes into Sheng Qian's hands.
"Thank you, Uncle. Thank you, Aunt Fang."
Sheng Qian accepted the red envelope, finding it quite novel.
"Ahem," Long Jingyu cleared her throat and handed her a red envelope, saying, "I wish you and Yunting a happy and harmonious life together!"
"Thank you, Auntie."
With money in hand, Sheng Qian became much more obedient.
As for whether she can stay with Long Yunting, that's uncertain.
The three elders were unaware of Sheng Qian's secret thoughts.
Then Sheng Qian was given another round of red envelopes. These three red envelopes were originally meant for Long Yunting, but were now given to Sheng Qian.
Sheng Qian received all of Long Yunting's salary, and of course, she received red envelopes as well.
The Long family didn't treat her like an outsider, nor were they afraid that she would embezzle Long Yunting's property.
The amount in the red envelopes was the same, twenty yuan per envelope, and Sheng Qian gained more than one hundred yuan in savings.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Long Haifeng and his group will return to Beijing.
Both Long Haifeng and Long Jingyu have their own jobs, especially Long Haifeng, whose job cannot be neglected for too long.
Sheng Qian had heard some things about Long Haifeng; he was a staff officer in a certain military unit and held a fairly high rank.
Long Yunting, at only twenty years old, was already the captain of the front line.
In short, the Long family has a deep background.
They couldn't wait for Long Yunting to wake up and rushed back to the capital.
Next, it was Sheng Qian and Hou Guifang's life together again.
The eighth day of the lunar month.
Sheng Qian then discussed something with Hou Guifang.
After hearing this, Hou Guifang was stunned for a long time. "You're going to go out and start a business? Is that appropriate?"
"Does Aunt Fang still have prejudices against women doing business? I've already made it very clear to you before that I'm going to do business. Ever since you wore the clothes I made last time, Aunt Fang, have people in town asked you about them?"
Hou Guifang's face flushed slightly, and she awkwardly avoided Sheng Qian's gaze: "Xiao Qian, I just don't want you to work too hard. Being a self-employed person isn't something you can do right away, and besides, when you go out on your own, you'll inevitably attract a lot of criticism."
“I don’t care about these things. If I did, I wouldn’t have chosen to do this. I would have just followed you to the capital.”
Sheng Qian's words left Hou Guifang completely speechless.
yes.
From the very beginning, Sheng Qian made her stance clear to them.
The Long family agreed.
It was the old man's approval after all.
Sheng Qian added, "I won't go too far ahead. I'll try to do business around here and try to come back to stay here every day. It'll just be hard on Aunt Fang taking care of him all by herself. How about this, I'll take care of him wherever I can come back from.
It was just a brush against my skin, nothing serious.
What else could Hou Guifang say but nod?
"Then be careful. If you really can't make it, just come back. Your family can support you, so you don't have to work so hard."
"I know."
Regardless of whether Hou Guifang agrees or not, Sheng Qian is determined to do it.
On the tenth day, Sheng Qian put a small wooden box on her bicycle and took it out of the house.
Hou Guifang wore clothes made by Sheng Qian when she went out, and many people were envious and couldn't help but ask her a few questions.
The women then realized that the daughter-in-law the Long family had bought could actually sew clothes, and sew them so beautifully.
They wanted to buy it, but Hou Guifang turned them away.
Hou Guifang only said that Sheng Qian had to take care of the family and didn't have much time to make clothes, and she was worried that her daughter-in-law would be overworked.
Everyone understood immediately upon hearing this.
Those with shallow feelings only make clothes for their own family.
Today, Sheng Qian rushed to the small market in front and set up two or three eye-catching outfits on wooden racks in a corner where no one was around.
After the New Year, everyone has some spare money.
Moreover, there are wealthy people in this town.
Before long, a woman brought her daughter over to inquire about the price. Sheng Qian's asking price was not low, but it wasn't high either.
This was exactly the time when middle-class families could afford it.
The woman felt the price was a bit high and tried to negotiate with Sheng Qian. Sheng Qian pretended to be in a difficult position and stood in front of everyone, bargaining back and forth with the woman. In the end, she "reluctantly" sold the woman three sets of clothes.
Sheng Qian's designs are both fashionable and conservative. Anyone with a TV at home has seen celebrities wear fashionable clothes, but the styles that Sheng Qian makes are even better than what celebrities wear.
A woman led the way, and soon people were scrambling to buy.
They have both men's and women's clothing, and clothing for all ages.
A whole box of clothes was sold out in no time.
As Sheng Qian packed up, many people left with regret.
Before leaving, they inquired whether Sheng Qian would still be making clothes another day, and also asked about her address. Sheng Qian said that if they asked her to design something, they would have to pay a design fee, so everyone gave up the idea of asking about her address.
Sheng Qian is only one person, and no matter how capable she is, she cannot produce a large number of clothes immediately.
So she waited until things were ready before hiring anyone.
She provides the design concept, someone helps her create the finished product, and then she has free time to pursue other developments.
Sheng Qian only had a three-minute attention span when it came to clothing.
She was able to design because she had studied equipment before.
She improved the thermal equipment time and time again, and every new piece of equipment she released was sold out immediately.
certainly.
Such thermal equipment can only be kept in the dark.
She has no intention of returning to her old profession here; instead, she has set her sights on the development of technology.
