Chapter 22 Saving the Old Man



"Xiaoqian, you came back in such a hurry and then left in such a hurry, is something wrong?"

When Hou Guifang saw Sheng Qian return, she hurriedly went to greet her and asked anxiously.

Sheng Qian said, "There was a slight problem, but it's resolved now."

Hou Guifang, seeing that she didn't seem to have anything wrong, looked at the boxes behind her: "Are all the clothes sold out?"

"My designs are very novel, and everyone likes them. They sold out in less than three hours, and the income is pretty good."

Fifteen sets of clothes sold for 320 yuan.

Simpler designs sell for around twenty yuan, which is already considered high.

Because it's a winter style, it will be a bit more expensive.

Those with some money can afford it.

Seeing the smile on Sheng Qian's face, Hou Guifang quickly told her to put down the wooden box and come inside for dinner.

Although Sheng Qian sold her goods quickly, she was delayed on the way back, and she set up her stall late, so it was already 5:45 pm.

It was just in time for dinner.

Hou Guifang had nothing to do at home, so she ate early.

There are no entertainment venues to go to in the evening, and no cell phones or computers. There is a TV in the living room, but by the afternoon, some channels are no longer available, and there are even regulations on which days they will be suspended.

Because Hou Guifang was somewhat aloof, even those who wanted to come over and watch TV didn't dare to come in.

Those who dared to come in could only sit there and watch for a while, barely exchanging a few words with Hou Guifang, and the atmosphere became quite awkward.

It wasn't that Hou Guifang looked down on the people here, but she really didn't know what to say to the women here, since they had nothing in common. Besides, she was also afraid of disturbing Long Yunting's rest.

Are you still setting up your stall tomorrow?

"I won't go tomorrow. The supply is too fast, which is not good," she said, not wanting to exhaust herself.

After Gao Xiufang returned home, she rushed into her room and hid until nightfall. It was her family members who got angry and called her out, and her parents scolded her harshly.

Gao Xiufang was scared and didn't dare to utter a sound after being slapped.

Gao Xiufang's mother, exasperated, pinched her waist, causing Gao Xiufang to wince in pain and almost cry out.

"How did it go when you met with people today?"

"I didn't see him. Qiu Shen is busy with town affairs. I'll go check again tomorrow," Gao Xiufang replied absentmindedly, her mind preoccupied with the accident.

“You good-for-nothing girl, what use are you? Liang Qiushen is working in town now. He’s from a good family that many people would kill for. You can’t let this opportunity slip by,” Gao Xiufang’s mother warned her. “You must invite him to our house tomorrow, do you hear me?”

"I'll try my best..."

"Given the relationship between your father and Liang Qiushen's father, would he dare to disrespect you? It's all because you're such a useless brat. I wasted my life raising you; you're utterly useless."

Gao Xiufang lowered her head and ate her food. Her mind was in turmoil, and she could no longer hear her mother's scolding.
