Reborn 1980's Petite Wife

Chapter 127 Where Does the Money Come From?

Jiang Meili didn't expect that last time she offended the little girl, she and her "brother" not only ignored the past, but also made her new clothes for the new year.

"Well—Boss Ai, last time I was too hot-tempered and made you and your sister angry. I apologize to you two here. I didn't expect you to treat us Shuzhi so well just a few days ago... ...I don't know how to thank you enough."

After measuring the size of the clothes, Jiang Meili opened her mouth to express her apologies and thanks to Ai Shan.

Ai Shan glanced at Xu Jiaren who was sitting outside quietly drawing design drawings.

He imitated what Xu Jiaren usually said, and said: "It's okay, one size is worth one size, this is a benefit from our shop, so there is no need to thank you. As long as he keeps doing a good job here, there will be better ones in the future." treatment."

This woman misunderstood who the owner of the shop was, but Xu Jiaren told him about it, so the tailor shop always declared that the owner was Aishan.

"Sister—you should apologize to the beauty." Jiang Shuzhi reminded.

Jiang Shuzhi stayed in the shop for a while, and he could see that this little girl was in charge of many things in the shop.

And her drawing skills and clothes-cutting skills, no one would believe that it came from her.

"Yes, yes—" Jiang Meili heard her younger brother say this, walked outside and smiled, "little sister, last time we didn't get along well, I will apologize to you! Please don't worry about it."

While talking, Jiang Meili grabbed a handful of peanuts, melon seeds and a few fruit candies from the pocket of her padded jacket and put them on the table.

Xu Jiaren put down her pen, glanced at the things on the table, and said with a smile, "You are too polite. Jiang Shuzhi behaved very well in his brother's shop and was very diligent. That is the best compensation. I won't care about it."

"Oh, thank you, sister Jiaren."

After some politeness, Jiang Meili left the shop.

However, before leaving, Jiang Meili glanced at the clothes piled up on the table in the room, and asked, "Shuzhi, is your business here so good?"

"Well, it's very good." Jiang Shuzhi said truthfully.

He had been to Yuantai tailor shop for two days before, and the business volume there might not even be a third of that here.

"Then how much money can I give you this month?" Jiang Meili asked curiously again.

Jiang Shuzhi said embarrassingly: "Sister, I'm just an apprentice. I only give three yuan a month's salary. How much can I get? What are you doing?"

"Didn't I want to save money for you to marry a wife..." Jiang Meili was a little disappointed, but when she thought that she only gave 1 yuan to Wanyuantai before, she felt a little balanced.

What's more, they also make clothes for their family members here.

Jiang Meili went back to the unit, just in time to see Ma Jing at the cotton cloth counter next door trying on new clothes.

Many colleagues praised Ma Jing's woolen suit for its beauty.

"Ma Jing is young and beautiful, she looks even better in this woolen suit."

"If you want me to tell you, Master Yuantai's craftsmanship is good. He can measure Ma Jing's size and cut it well. Other shops will definitely not be able to do it."

Ma Jing is a new girl in the cotton cloth group. I heard that her family background is good, and she is also beautiful. As soon as she entered the work unit, she became a flower in the department store.

In the past, Jiang Meili was a flower in the Central Department Store.

But now that Ma Jing is here, she seems to be forgotten.

Everyone was praising, and when they saw Jiang Meili standing at the door, someone deliberately shouted: "Beautiful, come and see if Xiaojing's new clothes look good!?"

"It's pretty." Jiang Meili replied perfunctorily.

After she finished speaking, she wanted to turn around and leave, but Ma Jing went to stop her: "Sister Meili, have you made your New Year's clothes yet? If you do, please take them out and let us open our eyes."

"I did, I just measured the size today." Jiang Meili said.

Jiang Meili's parents died young, and she and her younger brother depended on each other for life. It was very hard for her to bear the food and drink for the two of them.

Every year during the Chinese New Year, Jiang Meili does not make new clothes. During the Chinese New Year, the tailor shop is full of people, and the price will be one or two yuan more expensive than usual.

She would rather save one or two dollars to buy a pair of new cotton shoes for her younger brother.

It's not that Jiang Meili doesn't make new clothes, but she will wait until the beginning of spring to make them, which saves money. When people ask her about New Year's clothes, she will also say that they have to wash them when they are dirty.

The people in the unit have discussed her desperately trying to save face in private, but no one has exposed it.

But this year, Ma Jing, who is about the same age as her, came to the unit, and she was a little uncomfortable.

"Measure today?! Sister Meili, which corner shop did you go to get it done? The big tailor didn't accept work for a week ago."

Ma Jing said with a concerned face: "Don't be blind to the material! If it is particularly ugly, wouldn't it be a waste of your figure?"

The colleague next to him also echoed: "Yeah, beautiful, where did you make the clothes? Tell me and we will give you an advice, if not, hurry up and get the material back. I still have a little friendship with Master Liang from the Quanshui tailor shop downstairs." , let me tell you how to do it urgently?"

It sounded like words of concern, but Jiang Meili knew that these people just wanted to see her laugh.

Sometimes people's hearts are so bad, and every little thing is full of insidiousness and calculation.

"No need. I made clothes at the shop my brother helped." Jiang Meili laughed after finishing speaking, and said, "I'm back in the group, there is no one at the counter."

Jiang Meili didn't want to say more, the most important thing was that she didn't know whether the clothes made by her brother were good or not.

After all, she wasn't even asked to prepare the fabric, so she was a little uncertain.

"Desperate to save face, I will probably say that the clothes are dirty later."

"She's just like that. She always speaks hard. Who doesn't know what's going on in her family?"

Ma Jing patted the sleeves of the new clothes with a smile, and said magnanimously: "Maybe Miss Meili really made beautiful clothes? Let's ask if it's okay in two days? New clothes can't be dirty right after they're made." Bar?"

"Hahaha--"

The voice behind her almost caused Jiang Meili to stumble, but fortunately, someone helped her in time.

"Beautiful, are you alright?"

"what--"

As soon as Jiang Meili raised her head, she met the tender eyes of Gao Qiuming, head of the cultural and sports department of the labor union of her unit.

She quickly withdrew her hand, blushed and shook her head: "It's okay, thank you Minister Gao."

"Be careful when you walk. It's beautiful—" Gao Qiuming gently urged.

"Yes! Thank you, Minister Gao, then I'll go back." Jiang Meili hurried into her counter with her head down.

After entering the counter, Jiang Meili looked behind her, only to see Gao Qiuming walk into the cotton cloth department, and bursts of laughter came from inside.

His eyes darkened slightly, and Jiang Meili withdrew his eyes.

A man like Gao Qiuming is destined to belong to two worlds with her.

Jiang Meili grabbed the melon seeds on the stove and started nibbling absent-mindedly, thinking about her own business.

She is 23 this year, but because of the family situation, no one dares to propose a marriage, so she can only spend so much time.

My younger brother will be 20 after the new year, it's time to prepare for him to marry a wife, but where will the money come from...
