Chapter 225
Woven Second Threads Novel Chapter 225
Eli fought at the entrance of the village, Eli picked her up at the entrance of the village with a flashlight after dark, Eli was so sick that she stayed with her all night, Eli called her mother for the first time...
And in the previous life, Eli said to the crying woman behind bars, "Auntie, don't cry, wait until I get out"...
And Eli, who came to see her when she was seriously ill and called her "Mom"...
The entangled images of her past life and this life were like strings, entangled in her heart, making her feel sour and uncomfortable.
But she could only smile bitterly, "It depends on his own choice. After all, it's his mother."
The second sister sighed.
The two sisters chatted for a while.
Marinda Qingping didn't know what Liu Yan was thinking about, and didn't care.
After the incident at the Capital Department Store tea shop, she forgot about it because more people came to her—the mall managers from Tianjin and Shanghai.
They are all friends of Wu Tianjiao.
After sitting in Wu Tianjiao's shopping mall, I had an idea and came up with a new idea.
First of all, they must move such a popular dessert shop to their own shopping mall, so they came to Marinda Qingping to negotiate.
At this time, we have not yet seen the model of directly-operated stores or franchised stores. It must be said that these people are qualified to serve as store managers because they have a keen sense of smell and a broad mind.
Not only did they think of introducing a dessert shop, they even opened up the idea of introducing a restaurant into the mall.
This is a big step.
Later, when the economy developed, e-commerce swept across the country, and the entire physical industry was hit hard. Many shopping malls were depressed, but catering was booming.
These people's minds are really active. Just a spark lights up in front of them, igniting their imagination in an instant and advancing the business model decades later.
In any case, this is a good thing for Marinda Qingping, which means that she will have more money in her account in the future.
She is not afraid of survival of the fittest, she believes that she will be the "excellent" one.
She was even busier in the following days.
School studies must not be delayed, and she also has to take care of the design work of two clothing factories and dessert shops. For these two out-of-town companies, she can only ask them to send people to their stores in the capital to learn. This is really a franchise model. .
The days are spent in such non-stop busyness, and the end of the year is here before I know it.
It’s winter vacation again.
Marinda Qingping and his family did not go back this winter vacation because Justin Gu had no time off during the winter vacation and had to train.
This is quite what Marinda Qingping wants.
She didn't want to go home.
It's not that she dislikes the countryside, it's that there is really no one in the family worthy of her going back.
Of course, she has her father-in-law and mother-in-law, who are the people Justin Gu is closest to. However, Cassie Chen's incident during the summer vacation made her feel a little alienated from her mother-in-law.
She is still grateful to her parents-in-law and will be filial to them, but it is a bit difficult to be intimate and intimate.
Now, the second sister is not going back. It is the best thing for their family to spend the New Year in the capital.
Qingtea Dessert Shop Capital University Branch will be deserted during the holidays. There are only a few customers every day, which basically means the store can be closed. The store does not need so many manpower. Gu Youlian usually leaves the capital during the holidays, or takes wheat with him. Go and reunite with Dugan, or go back home.
It was the same this year. As soon as the winter vacation came, Gu Youlian went back with wheat, leaving only Marinda Qingping, Ermei, Sister Zhao and Eli at home to prepare for the New Year.
She also imitated northerners in storing Chinese cabbage and pickling sauerkraut, and also bought half a yard of briquettes and charcoal.
The family also had a lot of meat stored at home. Justin Gu's comrade-in-arms who supplied her with cream also gave her two sheep. It was cold in the north, so she kept these on the balcony to freeze, so there was no need to worry about them spoiling.
As the Chinese New Year was approaching, Sister Zhao was on holiday, and Marinda Qingping had almost purchased the New Year's goods. She still lacked some candies, melon seeds, etc. She took a long time to call her second sister and Eli to buy them together.
They bought several large bags full of various candies, pastries and dried fruits. The three of them had lunch outside and bought some red paper before going home.
What I didn't expect was that an uninvited guest would come to my home.
A strange woman, wearing a mink, with short perm hair, very fashionable and noble, was waiting at the door of her courtyard.
"Excuse me, are you..." Marinda Qingping didn't recognize this woman.
The arrival of the uninvited guest made her ignore the reaction of Eli next to her.
The woman kept staring at Eli. When she heard Marinda Qingping's voice, she raised her head and smiled. She was a little nervous and even at a loss. "I...that I..."
She said "I" for a long time without saying anything else. Finally, she smiled at Eli and said, "Eli, do you still remember me?"
Marinda Qingping suddenly understood what was going on.
She lowered her head to look at Eli, and saw that his little face was tense, showing a rare indifference and alienation.
"I don't know you!" After saying that, he opened the courtyard door and went straight in.
Marinda Qingping and her second sister were still standing at the door, looking at the woman. Eli shouted from inside, "Mom, second aunt, why don't you come in? My dad said, don't talk to people you don't know, and don't give in casually." It’s not safe for people to enter the house!”
Marinda Qingping:...
Good guy, in order to make this woman angry, he not only called her "Mom" affectionately, but Justin Gu was finally promoted to the position of "Dad".
Justin Gu never imagined that he would be recognized in this way, right?
Marinda Qingping glanced at the woman and decided to listen to her son and stand on the same side as him.
He entered the house with his second sister and closed the door, leaving the woman standing outside.
Eli had nothing unusual throughout the day. He helped Marinda Qingping put away all the New Year's goods, did his winter vacation homework in the afternoon, and Marinda Qingping cooked in the evening, and he also helped pick vegetables.
After dinner, the three of them watched TV together. Eli became distracted while watching. He didn't even hear Marinda Qingping call him.
The second sister sat next to Eli and touched his arm.
He suddenly came back to his senses and saw Marinda Qingping staring at him. He lowered his head silently, "Mom, I'm sleepy. Let's go to bed first."
"Okay, go ahead." Marinda Qingping did not dissuade him.
Eli was really good. He took a bath by himself and then closed the door.
The second sister was a little worried and whispered to her elder sister, "There is obviously something on your mind. Why don't you go and take a look?"
Marinda Qingping sighed, "Let him stay by himself for a while and talk slowly. This has been a day of acting."
He acts cold and strong in front of her all day long, but always give him some time to be alone and take off his disguise.
She and her second sister were no longer in the mood to watch TV. Marinda Qingping peeled melon seeds mechanically. Unknowingly, a small pile came out on the table, and she didn't eat them either.
She was trying to recall that she had never met Eli's mother in her previous life, and Eli had never mentioned this person. Did she ever come to see Eli?
"Sister?" Second sister asked her in a low voice, "If Eli's mother comes to take him back, will you agree?"
Marinda Qingping was also thinking about this issue.
What did Eli’s mother do now?
Picking up the kids?
To be honest, she doesn't think highly of Eli's mother.
She didn't know why Eli's mother left in the first place, but there was one thing she couldn't understand. If she really loved Eli, why didn't she let him go in the first place? Even if you have to leave, can you still take Eli away?
But she is Eli's mother after all.
Various scenes of Eli appeared in front of Marinda Qingping's eyes.
