"It's not cheap to buy clothes here. Your salary is not enough for you to spend money!" Jiang Cong, as the elder brother, did not give any face to the elder brother.

"Hey, brother, could you please not go against me?" Jiang Lian pouted and complained.

"Dad said, we don't expect you to bring much money home. Just take care of yourself outside. When the time comes, let your second sister-in-law take you to open an account and deposit half of your monthly salary into the passbook!"

This was what Jiang's father specifically told them before they left. He said that they should not think about sending money home while they were away, and that their family would tell them when they really needed money.

Jiang Cong gave him the school's number and told him to call the school's landline if he had any questions.

"Yes, girls, nothing is better than relying on yourself. As long as you have savings, you will have the confidence to do anything. Live a beautiful life. At your age, you should eat what you like and wear what you like. Do you understand?"

Qin Man understood this very well, and believed that it is important for women to be independent.

"Second sister-in-law, I listen to you. Whatever you say is what I do!" Now Qin Man is Jiang Lian's little idol, and she is willing to listen to her in everything.

Jiang Cong went out to buy groceries, and his two sisters-in-law made the bed at home, then moved the quilt onto the mahogany sofa and padded it high so that his waist wouldn't hurt when he fell asleep.

After eating, they lay down to rest and slept until the afternoon. Qin Man got up and took Jiang Lian for a walk around the neighborhood, and then went to the snack street under the department store. However, it was only the seventh day of the New Year, so there were not many people setting up stalls there.

Jiang Lian felt that the air outside was fresher than at home.

Many girls of her age passed by on the road. They were dressed fashionably and wore makeup. Jiang Lian liked them very much.

She wants to dress this beautifully in the future.

"Don't look at me, you are already very beautiful, and you look better than them even without makeup!"

Qin Man saw through her little thoughts and thought that there is a young girl living in every girl's heart who wants to wear beautiful dresses and be beautiful all the time.

"Oh, second sister-in-law, please don't expose me!" Jiang Lian's little thoughts were seen through, and she held her face in shyness.

Qin Man never gets tired of this!

The next day, Qin Man went to work, but only Sister Mengmeng came, and Xiaoya was nowhere to be seen.

In the afternoon, Manager Peng came to inspect and distributed Spring Festival benefits to employees, giving each person a red envelope of RMB 8.88.

"Thank you, Manager Peng!" Qin Man and Sister Meng Meng received the red envelopes and thanked him happily.

"Xiao Ya is not coming over. This time when she went back, her family arranged a blind date for her. They said they were attracted to each other and arranged to get married right away. Our business in the fifth store is so good now that we have to find new employees. Fortunately, it is the Spring Festival now, so it shouldn't be difficult to recruit people!"

Salesperson is a popular profession these days.

"Young people, once they fall in love with each other, will recklessly live together. We can only wish her happiness!" Manager Peng sighed.

Xiaoya can't come, and this gap happens to be right under Qin Man's nose. The one who is close to the water gets the moon first. Isn't Jiang Lian the most suitable candidate?

"Manager Peng, this is such a coincidence. My sister-in-law came here with us and is looking for a job. Can you see if you can have her come over to work?"

"Sure, how old is your sister-in-law? What's her personality like? People in our line of work need to be outgoing and cheerful, and good at speaking!"

"Don't worry about that. She's only 19 years old, a high school graduate. She's pretty and has a cheerful and optimistic personality. I'll bring her here tomorrow. Can you find some time to come and see her?" Qin Man promised.

"Since you said so, of course I believe you! Just bring the person here, I'll come over tomorrow to take a look. As usual, there's a three-day probation period, and once the probation period is over, let her fill out a contract and start working!"

Manager Peng is a straightforward person, and she also likes Qin Man. Qin Man is eloquent and has increased the sales of the fifth store significantly in the past six months. In a few months, the head office will select the most beautiful salesperson, and she intends to recommend her!

By then, there will be a bonus of several dozen dollars!

"Thank you, Manager Peng. I'll take a break at noon and then I'll go back and tell her that she doesn't need to look for a job anymore!"

Upon hearing this, Manager Peng waved his hand nonchalantly:

"It's not a big deal. It saves me from going to the labor market again!"

"Okay, then I'll treat you to beef ramen when I'm free some other time!" Qin Man promised.

"Whoever sees it gets a share!" Sister Mengmeng jokingly agreed.

"We'll be together then!" Qin Man said proudly.

A bowl of beef ramen costs 50 cents, which is not cheap among noodles.

After a one and a half hour break at noon, Qin Man simply went home to eat and brought the good news to her sister-in-law.

After hearing this, Jiang Lian was so happy that she almost jumped up.

"40 a month, plus commissions. If business is good, how much can I make a month?"

"If business is good and luck is good, you can sell a few more large appliances a month, and you can easily make 60 or 70 yuan a month. I have asked for you. There are two stores in our area. The staff dormitory is near the No. 1 Middle School in the city. Including your dormitory, there are four people in total. You and Sister Mengmeng from our fifth store will live in the dormitory together. Because I don't live there, and I get a rent subsidy every month, so I will get 5 yuan more than you!"

Qin Man doesn't live there, so she doesn't have to pay for accommodation, and her monthly salary is only forty-five dollars.

"Sixty or seventy yuan a month, that's great! It's so much better than working in the guesthouse at home!" Jiang Lian was extremely happy and counted on her fingers.

She thought that if she saved forty yuan out of sixty yuan a month in her passbook, she could save at least five hundred yuan in a year!

In the countryside, the bride price for marrying a wife is only 300 yuan, plus a few hundred yuan for making furniture. She can earn so much money for herself in a year, which is really amazing.

By then, she will be the most promising one among the sisters, and she won't have to follow the orders of her parents and the words of the matchmaker like them!

"That's right. The staff dormitory is also in good condition. It has an independent bathroom. If you need hot water, go downstairs and get it. It costs two cents to get a full kettle of water. I will buy you two kettles of hot water later. If you want to take a bath, two kettles of water will be enough. If you find it troublesome, you can go directly to the bathhouse. It costs eight cents per bath!"

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to spend money. I have saved some money in the guesthouse over the past year. When I went out, my parents also gave me a few dozen yuan. I have money on me, so I don't need you to pay for daily necessities!"

Jiang Lian earned 25 yuan a month at the guesthouse, and she brought 20 yuan home every month. Her food and accommodation were provided, so she had some pocket money of 5 yuan a month left. Jiang's father and mother did not squander her money. When Song Mei came to make trouble, she did not touch a penny of her money. This time when she went out, she was given 30 yuan on the first night.
