After seeing off Lingyuan, Lu Miao turned back to serve Lin Xian more tea and asked:
"How is the store going lately?"
She has been at home these days since she came back. The doorway shook.
I have never been to the store.
“It’s okay.”
Lin Xian held the cup and turned it around and said:
“It’s just that the weather is getting colder, and there are obviously fewer people entering the store.”
“The weather affects the entire street. The flow of people is not only affected by us, this is nothing to worry about."
"Well..."
"What's going on here this time?"< br>
"Just talking about other things, I almost forgot."
Lin Xian put down her tea cup and seriously mentioned her purpose:
"Sister Xiao Lu, our store is still hiring, right? I have a neighbor My sister, I would like to recommend her to give it a try.”
Lu Miao nodded and put down the teacup:
“Can you tell me the situation in detail?”
Lin Xian nodded and said eloquently:
“We live in Qianhuang Hutong. Her family’s conditions were better than mine, so she read more books than I did. She went to the second grade of junior high school and has recovered in the past few years. She has also been attending night school for the college entrance examination. She originally wanted to continue studying, but her father is ill..."
The girl introduced by Lin Xian is called Du Juan.
Du Juan’s father is a worker in a coal factory.
In the past, when I was strong and had a stable income, life at home was naturally easy.
But after working in a coal factory for most of my life, now that I am getting older, some problems have emerged.
Xu probably inhaled too much dust while working in the past. Around the National Day last year, Du Juan’s father was diagnosed with lung disease.
After two surgeries in the middle, I am now transferred home from the hospital, but let alone going back to work, even walking a few steps is quite strenuous.
When seeing a doctor, the Du family had almost spent all their money. Now that they could not make ends meet, Du Juan gave up the idea of continuing the college entrance examination and wanted to find a job to support the family.
But where is the job that is easy to find?
Du Juan tried hard for a while, but couldn't find a way out, so she turned to Lin Xian.
After all, the neighbors in the alley have all witnessed the life the Lin family has been living since Lin Xian started working in a store.
If someone asks Lin Xian for this, Lin Xian may not be able to agree to help with this.
But cuckoo is different.
The two little sisters grew up together, and their friendship is there.
Besides, Lin Xian knew the details of Du Juan and knew that Du Juan was actually a down-to-earth person, so she came here today...
After hearing this, Lu Miao thought about it for a while and asked:
"Do you think she is reliable? ?”
Lin Xian nodded quickly, and after a while she said:
“Du Juan has a very good personality. I don’t know if she is qualified for this job, but her character is definitely fine. ”
"Then give it a try. If you can keep it, I can work two shifts with you later."
"Yes!"
Lin Xian grinned and nodded vigorously.
Lu Miao thought for a while and continued to add:
"You go back and take her to familiarize yourself with the situation and learn what she needs to know. The first month counts as the apprenticeship, and nothing else. The basic salary is ten yuan. If she can start working after one month, it will be the same as your initial salary, which will be eighteen yuan.”
"Okay, I'll tell her when I get back!"
Lu Miao said "Yeah" and stood up.
After she finished speaking, Lin Xian thought she meant to issue an order to expel guests, so she stood up as well.
Lu Miao mistakenly thought that she was in a hurry to leave, so he reassured her:
"Wait a moment, I will go with you."
"Okay."
Lu Miao went back to the room and put on some silk scarves and small accessories she bought in Guangzhou.
Take Lin Xian and go to the store to organize and put up the display cabinets.
The silk scarves she picked cost 50 cents each, and the store sold them for two yuan. I bought a big bag of small accessories for only 1 or 2 cents. It was difficult to distinguish the specific prices, so Lu Miao fixed the price at 30 cents.
Anyway, it won’t be a loss.
After finishing these things, I ordered the money in the store.
Lu Miao went to the bank and made a few phone calls after returning home in the afternoon.
Every time she hung up the phone, she would write something in the booklet.
The things written in the booklet are nothing else.
These are the addresses and remittance and remittance amount information of each manufacturer that I just contacted.
Just wait for the money to be remitted, and then just wait to sign for the postal package.
After finishing this, Lu Miao closed the booklet and told Tang Mei about recognizing Ling Suisui as his daughter-in-law:
"I made an agreement with Ling Yuan...little aunt, then What kind of gift should you give to a child like this? "
"Are you kidding me?"
"Definitely not. I have nothing to do with making such a joke."
Tang Mei also realized that Lu Miao was serious.
After thinking for a while, Tang Mei said:
“In this day and age, we don’t pay much attention to anything. Buying two new clothes for the children, carrying some meat and milk powder is enough. Just look good. "
Lu Miao said "Oh", feeling that the courtesy was a bit light, but didn't say much.
When she went back to her room to rest at night, she chatted with Fu Jingyou again.
"If it doesn't work, give me something else."
Fu Jingyou pondered for a while in a deep voice.
I originally wanted to say longevity lock, but when I think about it, this is the only child in the Ling family, so I must be prepared for this.
If they send too much weight, even a small neck can’t wear it, so they compromise:
"Take time to go out for a walk and buy a pair of small bracelets or something with a good meaning."
Lu Miao thought for a while and then nodded:
"Okay, this I happened to be resting at home for a few days, so I took the time to take a look. "
While talking, she tore out a few pages of paper she had written during the day from the booklet:
" Please take the time to help me remit the money. The remittance process is too troublesome. , I don’t like to go.”
When she was saving money during the day, she originally planned to do it together, but it was too troublesome, so she came back.
Fu Jingyou nodded and responded:
"Okay, I'll do it on the way tomorrow."
"Well~ Brother You is so nice!"
Lu Miao Smiling, she hooked her arms around his neck and kissed him sweetly.
Fu Jingyou pecked her lips, the two of them got into a fuss, and rolled into bed in a blink of an eye.
"You are so warm!"
"Then you can sleep more."
There was a rustle in the darkness, and Lu Miao was indeed lying far away from him again Closer.
He took her into his arms and held her close together:
"My hands and feet haven't been cold for a long time before, but this time I got sick, it's back to what it was before liberation."
"How can it be that exaggerated?"
Fu Jingyou said "hum", My heart said "Why not", but my mouth said: < br>
“When I delivered things to the Ling family in the past, I seemed to have seen someone raising pigeons in the village over there. I’ll go take a look after two days off and buy two and stew them for you to eat.”
One pigeon is worth nine chickens, Fu Jingyou always remembers this sentence.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Lu Miao smiled and leaned into his arms. After a while, she raised her head and said:
"You can buy one more when the time comes. Gu Ying seemed to be pregnant again. She had a miscarriage. It didn’t take long, but it wasn’t obvious from the outside that her physical condition was still bad. The pigeons nourished her energy and blood, so it would be good for her to eat them. "
"Okay" (End of Chapter)
