If Yu Gingxing's stationery store was somewhere else, only a popular TV series could make her store popular. However, near schools, students can recognize it at a glance. Even if they are not interested in the TV series, their curiosity will drive them into the store.
You’re here, just buy whatever you want, you’ll need it every day anyway.
Ye Fan nodded: "You can prepare more supplies. When will you go?"
"Just these two days." When talking about purchasing goods, Yu Ginkgo couldn't help but say, "As soon as he leaves, the two little ones have to come to the store with me. How can I go to the east to open a store?"
Ye Fan just forgot that her parents-in-law were in the countryside. She and her husband were busy and the children would definitely learn bad things. There are very few students who are as self-disciplined as Chu Guangming. Most children need to be watched by their parents. Yu Ginkgo’s children belong to the majority: “I didn’t expect it.”
"You are too busy to take care of it. Drive slowly." Yu Ginkgo looked at the big guy and couldn't help but remind him.
The neighbor came out of the shop and looked at the car heading north: "Is that your boss?"
Yu Gingxing told the public that the store did not belong to her and that Ye Fan was her boss. Hearing this, he nodded and admitted.
"I heard that that kind of car is very expensive, and one car can buy several stores."
Yu Ginkgo said in his heart, there are several of them: "They are amazing."
"Does she have other businesses?"
Yu Ginkgo: "Go north to unload the goods."
"No wonder. I heard that those who sell goods there make money. But I heard that it is also dangerous. She dares to go there as a woman. How amazing!"
Yu Gingxing nodded: "It is very dangerous. There are people snatching money on the street and thieves in the car. It will take at least twelve days to go back and forth. If something happens after so many days, the body will smell bad by the time the family comes to find it." ”
"Then she's still going?"
Yu Ginkgo: "Don't be afraid of many people, even dozens of people together. If there are not so many people in the future, she will stop doing it."
The neighbor shook his head: "I'm used to making quick money, so I won't give up."
Yu Ginkgo said in her heart, what do you know? Then you concluded: "Who knows. We can't care about other people's affairs."
When the neighbors heard what she said, they found it boring. They casually chimed in and complained about the hot weather and then went back to their houses.
Long days and short nights are good. Ye Fan stayed in the research institute for a long time and it was still dark when he got home. But there is a guest in the house who is not a guest. Ye Fan took the water glass from Erbao, sat down and drank tea and asked, "Why are you here?"
Yu Wentao also asked the same question, because he should be at home with his mother-in-law and father-in-law.
Wei Jianshe smiled before he said anything.
Ye Fan raised his eyebrows: "Is gold raining from the sky?"
"How can such a good thing happen?" Wei Jianshe no longer pretended, "Didn't you remind me before that I should express my feelings? I went out with them in the afternoon and they were tired, so I suggested going to the mall to have a rest. There is a place to sit in the mall. At that time, there was a gold shop not far away. Since I brought a lot of money, I bought a pair of gold earrings, a gold ring, and a gold necklace for Xiaoru. They were all elegant in style and cost less than 2,000 yuan. Xiaoru Very happy, her parents are also happy.”
Yu Wentao: "You are so reluctant to give up!"
Ye Fan smiled and said: "Not much! This is the difference between actively buying and passively asking for it. If you ask for it actively, replace the necklace with a bracelet. The three items add up to seventy or eighty grams. If you spend four to five thousand, they may still think you are nothing." People from the capital are so picky. By the way, my glorious father-in-law. My mother-in-law is not worried about him having money and fooling around outside, but he often buys a necklace and a bracelet for Laifu's sister. Sometimes Chang Guangrong is a bitch, and Laifu's sister quarrels with him, and her parents complain to Chang Guangrong. His sister has a weak stomach.”
"I seem to have heard that Chang Guangrong showed off that he is better than his father-in-law and mother-in-law."
Ye Fan: "Xiao Ming's father-in-law and his family often remind Dong Ying not to bully him."
Yu Wentao said: "You are not stupid. Let's just say that Laifu never bought jewelry for Xiaoqin, but when I have trouble, she is more helpful than the third child. I am afraid that Xiaoqin will bully her and she will divorce her."< br>
Erbao looked at her mother subconsciously after hearing this, and she heard her mother say: "You are being unreasonable. Even if Geng Zhiye works in the vegetable market, he can't think about it."
Yu Wentao couldn't refute, so she simply pretended not to hear anything and asked Wei Jianshe: "Did her parents say nothing other than being happy?"
Next door to Wei Jianshe's 80-square-meter house is a 60-square-meter house with two households on one staircase, and that floor belongs to him. Previously, he and Qian Xiaoru received the certificate and returned to the capital. Wei Jianshe told Qian Xiaoru about the matter and asked her to clean it up when she had time.
Qian Xiaoru considered that her father-in-law would definitely have to come over if she lived here permanently. Wei Jianshe also said that she could use the money in the store as she pleased. She had plenty of money, so she decided to let her father-in-law live here after the decoration was completed.
Qian Xiaoru believes that painting the walls, adding a wardrobe, bed, coffee table and sofa, and installing a water heater are all good decorations. In her opinion, suspended ceilings and tiles are unnecessary. So when Wei Jianshe came back from the north in July, she decorated the house.
Wei Jianshe thought it was simple, and Qian Xiaoru's family thought the house was good like her.
The 80-square-meter house with three bedrooms and one living room was very spacious, but it couldn't accommodate Wei Jianshe's father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law's family, so Wei Jianshe arranged his brother-in-law's family next door.
Qian Xiaoru's sister-in-law praised the house very much. Qian Xiaoru's father didn't say anything, but he had seen Wei Jianshe's small shop and thought that he couldn't make much money, so he could only afford these two houses by living frugally. In addition, when Wei Jianshe went to Qian Xiaoru's parents' house without bringing any valuables, Qian's father increasingly believed that Wei Jianshe was someone who knew how to live a good life.
At noon in the restaurant, there were eight adults and children. Wei Jianshe ordered eight dishes, two soups, and two snacks. The round table was full. Sister-in-law Qian Xiaoru was satisfied with him in her heart. She said it was okay, but Not willing to waste it, I finally came out holding the food against the wall. Wei Jianshe didn't laugh at her, she also felt that Wei Jianshe was a person who lived a good life.
When Qian Xiaoru and Wei Jianshe chose the three gold medals, the Qian family’s sister-in-law said to her father-in-law: “Don’t ask for any gifts.”
Father Qian nodded and said to his wife: "Give my daughter eight hundred yuan later and let her buy things by herself."
Qian Xiaoru's hometown does not require daughters to support her in her old age, so the betrothal gifts are not considered a dowry. Qian's mother said, "Xiaoru won't want it."
Qian’s father: “She said this money was given to us by her before, but we have no use for it and have been saving it for her.”
When she got home in the afternoon, Qian's mother took out the money from the jacket of her clothes. She kept two hundred of the one thousand yuan and gave the rest to Qian Xiaoru. Qian Xiaoru was really embarrassed to ask for it. Her mother said it was her money.
Qian Xiaoru went to the master bedroom and gave it to Wei Jianshe, saying that it would be reserved for the wedding reception.
Wei Jianshe didn't expect it and was stunned for a while. Qian Xiaoru often went to the city before. She had heard that housing prices were high. Wei Jianshe could afford to buy two houses, but he might not see the small amount of money, so he said: "Don't be too little."
When Wei Jianshe came back to his senses, he felt ashamed and almost said that there were still tens of thousands of dollars in the safe in the study. Fortunately, he was not a hot-blooded young man, so he swallowed it back in time, opened the bedside table, and let Qian Xiaoru see it for himself.
Qian Xiaoru left the army not long ago, and she still believed in her heart that she should not take advantage of the masses. Even if Wei Jianshe was her husband, she should not take other people's things as her own, so she did not take the initiative to touch the locked cabinet.
It’s impossible to say you’re not curious! Everyone is curious. Qian Xiaoru went over as soon as he opened it and was shocked by the banknotes inside.
Wei Jianshe took out a passbook from under the banknotes. There was only 10,000 yuan in it, reserved for emergencies.
Xiaoru lowered her voice and asked: "Why don't you save it?"
Wei Jianshe: "Half is for you to go to Brother Xiao Ming's store to get the goods, and half is for these days. The money in the passbook is reserved for the wedding banquet."
"Well, it won't cost so much." Qian Xiaoru urged him to lock the cabinet.
Wei Jianshe locked the door and put the key on the bedside table. Qian Xiaoru felt unsafe and stuffed it under the pillow. Then he saw the money in his hand and asked: "What should I do with these?"
"Give it to your father-in-law." Wei Jianshe added, "If he doesn't want it, just tell me to keep it for your brother and sister's children. Besides, you should always bring some specialties back when you come to the capital. Otherwise, relatives and neighbors will not be able to buy things for me. Stingy.”
Qian Xiaoru returned the money and told her parents that Wei Jianshe still had ten thousand or twenty thousand left.
Qian's sister-in-law was surprised: "Is he so rich?"
Qian's father said: "I forgot. Even if he is successful, it is impossible for him not to leave some money for emergencies and banquets." Then he told his daughter to live a good life and not to make trouble.
Wei Jianshe was thirsty and went to the living room to pour tea. Because the guest room door was not closed tightly, he heard clearly.
Wei Jianshe didn't dare to let his father know how much money he had in his house. His parents were soft-hearted towards their children, and his sister said a few nice words. His father told his sister everything, but he wanted to find someone to talk to, so he wanted to talk to Zhang Xiaoming.
Zhang Xiaoming's little daughter couldn't stay in the house. He had to take care of the child and had no time to chat with Wei Jianshe. Chang Guangrong lived not far away. Wei Jianshe thought that his child was also young, so he turned to Ye Fan's place on the way.
Wei Jianshe told about the money, and then sighed: "My father-in-law is really nice." After a pause, "The elder sister-in-law in their family is a bit unscrupulous. She couldn't eat at noon and she tried her best to stuff it into her stomach."
Yu Wentao: "I'm afraid of being poor. I don't treat you as an outsider."
"Maybe." Wei Jianshe remembered what we talked about at lunch, "Sister Ye, my father-in-law asked me and Xiaoru to treat you to dinner. When are you free, can I set a table at the Capital Hotel? I've thought about it. What to eat later?”
Ye Fan: "Aren't you afraid that your father-in-law will see that you are rich?"
Wei Jianshe: "It looks like he's fine. I'm actually afraid that Xiaoru's sister-in-law will speak out quickly, and I'm also afraid that my mother-in-law will be soft-hearted. My sister-in-law will pester her for a while, and she will tell her everything. But it doesn't matter, it will reach my brother-in-law. The ears must think that I am trying to show off my face.”
Erbao was surprised: "Why do you want to invite my mother to dinner?"
Wei Jianshe shook his head: "I don't understand either. What my father-in-law means is that your mother is Xiaoru and I's matchmaker, so we should invite her only once. On the day we got married, your mother went to a banquet because she gave me the money, so she can't be counted as me." Please.”
Yu Wentao: "Don't you thank the matchmaker after getting married?"
"We have to come here again after we get married." Wei Jianshe smacked his lips: "Don't think that my father-in-law was born and raised in a small place. He is very particular about it."
Ye Fan: "You two and me?"
"Are you all going?" Wei Jianshe looked at Erbao and Yu Wentao.
Yu Wentao shook his head: "I can't go. Dabao comes back for dinner every day. I have to cook for Dabao."
"You can hire a nanny." Wei Jianshe said.
Yu Wentao: "I cook on weekdays and clean the house on weekends when they have a break. There is no need to hire a nanny. Besides, there is a gas stove now, which makes it much easier than before."
Ye Fan smiled and said, "I mean, will your father-in-law go?"
"Go ahead. He wanted to thank you for Xiaoru. He was so polite. I guess he didn't guess that I was doing business with you in partnership. He knew that I was selling goods to the north, so he might have thought that I was giving you a ride."
Ye Fan: "Don't tell me this in advance, let them guess. Didn't you tell me that your mother-in-law has a soft ear? If your brother-in-law is short of money one day, your mother-in-law knows that your business is big, so she will definitely ask you to take care of him." Wei Jianshe never confessed to Qian Xiaoru, because he was afraid that his daughter would have sex with her mother, so he told her mother everything: "I know it in my heart. Sister Ye, when do you want to see it?"
There was a phone call from Ye Fan's company. The R&D team leader asked how the mold was progressing. Ye Fan called Su Duofu. Su Duofu said that her work was too delicate and many places needed to be polished by hand, which would take some time. This means that she does not need to make a special trip for the mold before going south to get the goods, "I can do it any day."
Erbao: "Not necessarily, Mom."
"You know better than me whether I am busy or not?"
Erbao nodded and said silently "One, two, three--" Geng Zhiye appeared at the door of the main room, and several people in the room were startled. Erbao was happy: "Dad, mommy is going out again."
Geng Zhiye frowned slightly. Wei Jianshe glared at Erbao: "Brother Geng, I want to treat my sister-in-law to dinner, and I was asking her when she would have time."
Geng Zhiye looked at Erbao, is that so?
Erbao covered his mouth and ran out with a smile. Geng Zhiye slapped her on the back of the head: "Just follow your brother's example!"
After the words fell, Dabao jumped into the courtyard, and Geng Zhiye shouted angrily: "Walk well!"
Dabao was so frightened that he stopped: "You--when did you come back?"
Geng Zhiye: “Can’t you see the car at the door?”
"I, your car looks similar to my mother's from the back, so I didn't notice." Dabao used to be very rare about his mother's car. During the time when his mother was away, he would get in the car and touch it when he had time. Now that he saw the car My first reaction has become "Mom is at home" and "Why don't you ask the security guard to send you off?"
Geng Zhiye: "There is no danger on this journey."
"Then go into the house and rest for a while." After Dabao said that, he went back.
Geng Zhiye thought he was worthless and glared at his son's back before entering the house.
Ye Fan subconsciously handed over the water cup. Geng Zhiye saw that there was only half a cup left and added some water. The tea leaves floated up. Geng Zhiye was surprised: "It's not black tea? Did you change the tea leaves?"
Ye Fan: "Of course I drink green tea during this season."
"What kind of tea?" Geng Zhiye couldn't wait to take a sip, feeling that he had drunk it before: "Why does this taste seem familiar?"
Ye Fan: "My dad gave it to me, West Lake Longjing. There's still half a box left. Make a cup of strong tea when you train at night to keep you energetic until the next night."
When Wei Jianshe heard General Ye's good tea, he found a glass and brewed some. Geng Zhiye saw that he only pinched a few, and thought that each one was more useless than the other: "Put more."
Wei Jianshe: "I can't sleep after drinking tea at night. Let me taste it."
The boiling water in the thermos bottle was boiling hot. Wei Jianshe needed to wait for a while and took the opportunity to ask Ye Fan to set a time.
Ye Fan opened the calendar: "The hotel is busy on the weekend, and next Monday is the Ghost Festival. Forget it, let's do it next Saturday." Suddenly he saw the Chinese Valentine's Day, "Hey, construction, can't you survive the Chinese Valentine's Day?"
Wei Jianshe: "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet? I've only seen people celebrating Western Valentine's Day on TV. Isn't it a bit uncouth to celebrate Chinese Valentine's Day?"
Yu Wentao couldn't help but dislike him for being a foreigner.
Wei Jianshe didn’t think so: “This is called fashion.” He asked Ye Fan, “If I hold an event in the store, will it be counterproductive?”
"The current trend in society is to learn from foreign countries. If you do activities during the Chinese Valentine's Day, you may be said to be stupid. But you can set the tone high, such as promoting traditional culture -" Ye Fan looked at Geng Zhiye, "He often writes reports and organizes materials for him to Let me think of a few words for you.”
Geng Zhiye opened the cabinet for snacks: "Ye Fanfan, have you forgotten what major you majored in in university?"
"After I graduated, I focused on computers and worked as a second-level businessman. Poems, lyrics and songs have long been handed down to Chinese and foreign ancients." If Ye Fan was asked to type in code, she would not hesitate to ask her to think of a few lines of poetry, and the words "Xianyun makes tricks" instantly appeared in her mind. , "Flying Stars Spread Hate", how can this be used as a slogan?
Since Ye Fan graduated, Geng Zhiye had never seen her read any books on literature: "Look for Huihui. By the way, where is Huihui? Is she behind you too?"
Ye Fan first explained that Geng Huihui was at her parents' house, and then said to Wei Jianshe: "Chinese Valentine's Day falls on Sunday. If her parents can rest normally, they can come over on Saturday night. Get up early on Sunday and ask Huihui to help you think a few words." .”
"Didn't you say that Huihui's writing is not good?" Wei Jianshe remembered that Geng Huihui had said it herself.
Ye Fan: "She is not good at making up stories. If she is asked to pile up words, the director and screenwriter of Chang Guangrong's "Glory Class Eight" together are not as good as her. There are several lines in the play that were changed by Huihui. She is very good at exaggerating, Compared with her, the screenwriter's previous lines were like vernacular. I heard that everyone from the screenwriter, director to the actors were very excited during the filming. The students who played the movie really thought they were in the graduating class, and the others really thought they were teachers and parents. It was a pity that I was there. On the train.”
Wei Jianshe was also on the train at the time. He had never been to the shooting scene, so he couldn't imagine it: "It's too abrupt for just my family. How about several families doing it together?"
Ye Fan said: "Okay, just treat it like giving back to old customers. By the way, tomorrow I'll go to the gift shop to buy small packaging boxes, and put a dozen of them in the store for a lottery. They will include hair accessories, socks and other small things."
Wei Jianshe nodded: "Okay. It's a festival, it's lively." He took a sip of tea. Although there was only a little tea in it, it was still more fragrant than the ones in his shop. "Sister Ye, is this kind of tea even if you have money, you can't buy it?"
Ye Fan: "I don't know. Like to drink? Pour some and take it home. I still have Biluochun made by the employee's father."
"Are your employees so good?" Wei Jianshe couldn't help but ask.
Ye Fan said: "Actually, he is also my junior brother. His parents wanted him to return to his hometown. There have been many companies there in recent years and they need computer talents. He has a house and savings five years after graduating. His father thinks that I am better than many leaders of state-owned units. OK, let him bring me some local specialties. One of them is Biluochun.”
Wei Jianshe: "It's also because his family thinks he looks good."
"It's really in good condition." Ye Fan was worried that the employees would be depressed if they stayed indoors every day and couldn't see the sun. When she wasn't busy, she went to the company to observe carefully, and she could often hear them talking about the future.
If everyone is full of hope for the future, it is impossible to take revenge on society and her.
Wei Jianshe: "Then do you want to prepare gifts for them the day after tomorrow?"
Ye Fan: "No need. Prepare a few more things on August 15th and give them another day off."
Geng Zhiye swallowed the candied haws in his mouth: "It's still a real holiday. If you give them three days off, they don't need gifts."
"I thought so for a moment. On the Mid-Autumn Festival, when I saw gifts from classmates, alumni and work units, they felt a little disappointed because they had nothing." Ye Fan saw that he was hungry, "I'll go cook."
Wei Jianshe stood up: "It's time for me to leave. Sister Fan, don't forget."
Yu Wentao asked him to wait and get him some tea.
Wei Jianshe said there was no need to be so polite. He walked towards Yu Wentao and said, "Take Biluochun. The West Lake Longjing was given to Sister Fan by the old general. I am embarrassed to drink it."
People often come to Ye Fan's house, and every time they come, Yu Wentao makes some tea. She uses up the tea quickly, and there are a few empty boxes - Yu Wentao originally reserved them for white sugar and brown sugar to avoid leaving them on the table to avoid insects, so she Pick a small half box.
Wei Jianshe reported to his father-in-law when he got home - finalized the time with Ye Fan, and then handed over the tea leaves. Qian's father had already asked his daughter to invite her in-laws over to have dinner together. When he saw this, he said, "Give it to your dad."
Wei Jianshe's father was not satisfied with him finding a wife from out of town at first. But in the future, he still hopes that his son will provide for him in old age. He doesn't dare to offend his son, so he can only complain to others.
On the day that Wei Jianshe's father-in-law arrived, Qian Xiaoru asked him to eat, and he was a little unhappy. After chatting with Qian's father for a few words, Wei's father calmed down after realizing that he was more knowledgeable than him. Now after hearing this, he still said: "I don't drink tea."
Qian’s father: “Then put it away. This tea is good, but it’s a waste to drink it at night.”
Wei Jianshe took the opportunity to say that he would go to the store tomorrow. Father Qian said that he knew how to take the bus and they would go out for a walk tomorrow.
The next morning, Qian Xiaoru's mother heard that he wanted to pack something. Qian Xiaoru's sister-in-law happened to be carsick, so she asked her daughter-in-law to help in the store. She, her husband and son took their grandchildren on a tour of Sijiu City.
The wrapping paper of the packaging box was not valuable, so Wei Jianshe bought fifty copies with his own money, and he, Ye Fan, Zhang Xiaoming, and Chang Guangrong each had a dozen copies.
Ye Fan called Huihui early in the morning and asked her if she could come over early. When I was shopping for groceries in the morning, I saw a car in Yujia Village and asked the villagers to send a message to my uncle.
In the afternoon, Uncle Yu brought his eldest son over, and Ye Fan asked them to look for Yu Ginkgo. Yu Gingxing knew everything. As soon as Ye Fan mentioned preparing gifts, she understood Ye Fan's intention, so she told her father and her brother why they did this. Then he told them where to buy packaging boxes.
On Sunday morning, Ye Fan went to the store to see if the gifts were wrapped, and then she went home and asked Erbao to help in the store.
Erbao: "Didn't you tell me to be careful?"
Ye Fan said: "You don't have the time to think about it after being busy in the store all day."
"Temporary workers——"
Ye Fan interrupted: "You want a salary? Then give me back the golden gourd I gave you yesterday morning."
Yesterday, Ye Fan took his mother-in-law to the gold store to buy golden peanuts. He saw many small golden beans of different shapes, which were very delicate. Each one cost less than 200 yuan, so Ye Fan just bought a few. Later, he saw the solid gold gourd, which was cuter than the golden peanut. Ye Fan felt that Erbao liked it and took it. I also chose a solid gold pen for Dabao.
Dabao and Erbao jumped up and down happily, playing for a while and then quickly put them away.
Ye Fan could tell that they really liked each other, and as expected, Erbao wanted to cry to her mother: "You are going back on your word!"
"How can you buy gold if you don't make money?" Ye Fan asked.
Erbao nodded perfunctorily: "Okay, okay, I'll go! But what are you doing?"
"Go to your dad's place. Today is Chinese Valentine's Day, the store is celebrating the festival, and I need to celebrate the festival too." Ye Fan said.
Ever since Erbao found out that her father was almost fifty and there were people chasing him, she was a little worried that her father wouldn't be able to control him for a while. After hearing this, Erbao immediately corrected his attitude: "Don't worry, Mom, leave the store to me!"
Ye Fan felt that she was strange: "A person born in the year of the Monkey changes so quickly?"
"That's right! Even though Sun Wukong has changed into seventy-two, I can't change it!"
