Chapter 17
Woven Second Threads Novel Chapter 17
If you look closely, you can see that someone is holding a torch and walking around at the entrance of the village. He is still a little person.
As she got closer, the little man actually ran towards her holding a torch.
It’s Eli!
"Eli! Why are you here?" She rushed to greet him.
"It's getting dark, and you still haven't come back..." Eli raised the torch high to illuminate the road in front of her.
Marinda Qingping then remembered what she had told the child: She was afraid of the dark...
She suddenly felt that a place in her heart was also illuminated by a torch, bright and hot...
Some people, really, if you just release a little kindness, he can illuminate you like the sun.
"Thank you, Eli, let's go home." She took the torch from Eli's hand, took his hand, led her second sister, and strode home.
When her father-in-law and mother-in-law saw that she had brought her younger sister back, they just treated her as relatives to stay for a while. This was also common in the countryside. They didn't say anything. They even heated up the food left for Marinda Qingping and added two scrambled eggs for them to eat. .
When he finally settled down at night, Marinda Qingping saw that his sister had fallen asleep, so he sat down and wrote a letter to Justin Gu explaining today's situation.
She wrote down her title neatly: Jun Cheng.
Looking at the two words on the letter, she felt familiar yet unfamiliar.
She seems to have never written his name...
After being stunned for a while, she began to write, without telling any lies. She clearly stated in the letter that she had spent 500 yuan. She also said that the matter was urgent and she did not discuss such a large sum of money with him.
At the end of the letter, I still asked: Be sure to pay attention to safety.
The next day, she took the written letter to the brigade and asked for a branch letter to be sent.
When the branch secretary saw that it was a letter sent to the army, he agreed wholeheartedly.
She thought it would take a long time to receive a reply from him, but unexpectedly, a few days later, Xiao Wang Fei from the brigade came over and asked her to answer the phone, saying that Nariko called from the army.
She ran and followed him. She didn't know what the purpose of his call was. Would he blame her?
After all, 500 yuan accounted for a large amount of the money he gave her.
There was only one phone in the whole village, and the signal was still very poor. It took her a long time to hear his voice.
"Hello." A low voice.
"Justin!" Her voice was crisp when she was anxious.
"Don't worry, I've received your letter. Don't be stressed. The money I gave you is for you to spend. Just make arrangements and let the second sister live at home peacefully. Don't be burdened. I will write to my parents. Make it clear."
He spoke quickly, but his words were clear and powerful, as if he were speaking right next to her ear.
"Well, okay..." Suddenly, my eyes felt hot.
In fact, I guessed that he would say this, he is such a good person, but hearing him say it with my own ears, it was still different.
He seemed to be ready to hang up the phone after he finished talking. Marinda Qingping said quickly, "Justin, I want to go see you in the army, is that okay? I want to visit my relatives!"
"What are you here for? Don't come."
The signal is starting to get a little unclear.
"Is it not allowed?" She was not sure.
"No, you."
Marinda Qingping held the phone and walked around in the brigade office, but could not find a signal. Finally, the phone finally disconnected, leaving only a beeping sound.
Marinda Qingping hung up the phone helplessly and went back sadly.
When I got home, I found a guest.
It's not a guest, it's her sister-in-law, Justin Gu's sister Gu Youlian.
Justin Gu is the second eldest child in the family. He has an older sister who married to the next village and gave birth to a daughter.
Marinda Qingping did not pay attention to the Gu family in her previous life, nor did she call her eldest sister-in-law sister. She left the Gu family after Justin Gu's death, and she was not sure about her eldest sister-in-law's subsequent fate.
Gu Youlian was leading her daughter Mai Xiao around to look at Marinda Qingping's second sister's new clothes. She was spitting, "Your sister must have bought it for you in a department store. The ones sold in department stores are very expensive. Let me tell you, We can buy them at the factory price, which is so cheap. Look at me and look at what Xiaomai is wearing. He bought them, at least half the price."
Marinda Qingping listened, and an idea came to his mind.
"Sister, what's the ex-factory price?" Marinda Qingping asked quickly.
When Gu Youlian saw her coming back, she immediately grabbed her and asked, "Did you buy it in a department store? I compared it. It's exactly the same product, but the price difference is more than half. Look at this, it's just a different color."
Gu Youlian's face was filled with pride that her husband was capable.
"Sister, I want to take a look. Can you and your brother-in-law take me there to take a look?" Marinda Qingping, who was originally weak, suddenly became energetic.
Of course Gu Youlian is willing. Isn't this an opportunity to show off his manly abilities?
You know, in the past, her man Dugan was always said to be lazy, didn't like to work, was outside all day long, and couldn't stand up.
One was anxious and the other was dazzling, so the two immediately decided to look for the factory-priced clothes the next day. When the eldest sister returned, Marinda Qingping stuffed a lot of candies for her niece Xiaomai.
Early the next morning, Marinda Qingping set out as scheduled, taking her second sister with her to meet her eldest brother's husband.
Du Gen is tall, thin, and fair. He is really not the type to do farm work. It is said that his ancestor was a salesman. Therefore, he probably inherited this gene and loves to travel all over the world. He is nowhere to be found. Haven't drilled into the ground.
"It's a clothing factory in another county. There's a whole warehouse of clothes in the warehouse. I can take you to see it, but it's far away. Aren't you afraid?" Dugan asked.
"Let's go, go early and come back early!" Marinda Qingping couldn't wait.
"Okay!" Dugan was also very happy.
It was indeed very far. They set off early in the morning and arrived in the afternoon.
But Marinda Qingping overestimated Du Gen's ability. Du Gen only knew the warehouse manager in the factory. To buy so many goods from the warehouse, he had to meet the person in charge of their garment factory.
After a lot of good words, the warehouse manager agreed to take them to see the sales section chief.
This is the first time the sales section manager has encountered this kind of thing, "Our clothes are only for department stores and shopping malls, not for sale to individuals."
Who doesn’t go to the mall to buy a piece of clothing instead of buying it in a factory?
To speak is to refuse.
"What if I buy a hundred pieces, or even more!" Marinda Qingping said loudly.
But Gu Youlian's wife and second sister were frightened.
Gu Youlian was already tugging at the corner of her clothes.
The sales section chief almost thought her a fraud.
"Section Chief, we pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand. We can close the deal today. Where can I lie to you?" Marinda Qingping directly threw out the money, a thick stack of ten yuan bills, "I want to buy autumn and winter clothes." "
The sales section chief hesitated for a long time and finally took them to the warehouse. "These are all for autumn and winter. Take a look at what styles you want and let me know when you have chosen them."
There are no sample clothes, so I went to the warehouse to pick...
Is there anyone doing this business?
But Marinda Qingping didn't care and plunged into the warehouse.
