Chapter 38 The best sister-in-law in the 1980s (38)
"Yinyin, do you like mutton?" Sister-in-law Xu asked her, "There are a lot of sheep here, and the price is cheaper than pork. Your brother thinks the mutton slls strong, and I was worried that you wouldn't be able to eat it, so I didn't buy it yet. You If you like it, I can go to the morning market tomorrow to pick out a better piece of mutton leg and co back to stew potatoes for you."
"I like it." Xu Yin nodded fiercely. She planned to buy more. Authentic free-range Hu mutton would not be available at high prices in future generations.
Then lets go to the morning market together tomorrow. If theres anything else you want to eat, my sister-in-law will cook it for you. Anyway, the sumr vacation is long, so Ill stay here for a few more days.
Xu Yin said with a smile: "I promised my mother before I ca here. I have to go back before the robbery. Didn't our family raise rice flower fish? These fish can also be sold when the rice fields are drained. Mom said that the flower girl gets on the sedan chair, I dont know whats going on with her and dad.
"Then we'll see, your brother will ask for leave and ask him to go back with you. This year, dad also planted three acres of waterlon. I don't know what the harvest will be like."
Dont worry, sister-in-law, the lon seedlings are growing very well. Our father is an expert in growing lons. He is more attentive to lons than to my daughter. How can the lons grow badly?
The aunt and sister-in-law had a chat about each others current situation.
Xu Yin just learned that her sister-in-law had already made a lot of clothes for people within two months of moving to the workers' compound.
"Thanks to you, little sister, for designing this nursing garnt for . On the day I first moved in, my neighbor ca to visit and saw that I could feed myself without lifting my clothes. She thought this garnt was good. There were also family mbers upstairs who were in confinent. I was asked to make two pieces, and then people started coming to to make clothes..."
Xu Yin thinks this is good: "Dou Dou and Ding Ding are still young, and they can't live without people at ho. It's good for my sister-in-law to earn so money by making clothes at ho. When your reputation spreads in the future, more people will co to you for work." .
Sister-in-law Xu hesitated for a mont and said: "There is sothing that I am a little undecided about. There is an empty tailor shop in the Internal Supply and Marketing Departnt of the Workers' College. The man who was the original lessee has been transferred to work elsewhere, so naturally she also I want to follow. Last week, the director of the Won's Federation ca to ask if I had any intention of renting a tailor shop. She made so statistics and found that I am the only one in our area who can make clothes. If I don't rent it, I will switch to another shop.
Xu Yin thought this was an opportunity. Even though it was just a workers' college, there were a lot of people there. Most existing families start with two children. There are four seasons in a year, so at least two sets should be changed every season, right?
Even if the parents are reluctant to make new clothes, what about the children? You always have to wear a few outfits every year, but you can't go to school and still wear patches?
The inco of the other half of these family mbers is not low. Who is willing to let their children wear patched old clothes?
Whats more, it is a unique existence with unlimited potential and considerable profits!
Xu Yin encouraged Sister Xu to rent it.
Are you worried about the high rent?
Sister-in-law Xu shook her head: "The rent is not bad, but I just don't feel confident. I discussed this matter with your brother, but he didn't understand and asked to make my own decision. But I don't have any idea."
Xu Yin simply made up her mind: "Rent! You must rent! The God of Wealth has given you an opportunity, and you would be a fool not to rent."
Sister-in-law Xu:
However, Sister-in-law Xus words made her feel confident.
It's a pity that my sister-in-law has to go to college elsewhere. Otherwise, it would be great for the two of them to open this shop together.
"Okay! I'll rent it tomorrow and open a shop to make clothes."
Not only can we make clothes, but we can also buy so high-selling fabrics and sell them in the store. Xu Yin said.
Thinked about it and suggested:
"It's almost midsumr. I'm going to draw so new sumr clothes for my sister-in-law later. I'll make so when she has ti and hang them in the shop. Firstly, it will enrich the facade, and secondly, it will attract people to co in and take a look. The more people who see it, the more popular it will be. Maybe I didnt plan to make clothes at first, but after seeing these ready-made clothes and thinking they were beautiful, I ca to you to make them. Isnt this how business grows little by little?
Sister-in-law Xu felt much more at ease after hearing this, and she wished she could go and settle the matter of the shop now. The next day, when she ca back from the morning market, she couldn't wait to find the director of the Won's Federation to rent a shop. Knowing that her sister-in-law was going to go shopping in the city, she handed her fifty yuan before leaving.
Xu Yin didn't want to accept it at first, but then she thought about her sister-in-law dragging two children and probably didn't have ti to run to the city. If she saw sothing useful, she could bring it back to her.
She took the bus in front of the workers' compound and went to the city center. She originally wanted to explore the street stall market, but she overheard a few passengers chatting and said that a large textile wholesale market had opened in the north of the city, and she was moved.
I asked them how to get to the wholesale market, and finally found out the address and the alternate bus.
It was said to be the north of the city, but in fact it was still a suburb. The bumpy gravel road made her almost doubt her life.
However, when I saw the appearance of the textile wholesale market, I felt that it was not in vain.
This is much larger and more organized than the wholesale market at the entrance of the alley, and it is so spacious that a truck can run inside.
She followed the flow of people who also ca here to wholesale fabrics and rushed to the stall of defective fabrics in the cloth factory, and snatched five pieces with quick eyesight.
Each 30-ter horse only costs 20 yuan. Five pieces of cloth cost 100 yuan, and two pieces of labor cloth can be used to make two pairs of trousers as a gift. It's a bargain, isn't it?
The garnt factorys processing stalls here are also crowded with people. The ready-made garnts to be processed are old in style and many are broken, but they are cheaper.
Xu Yin paid a few pieces for each of her parents as if they were free of charge. They were cheap and she didnt feel bad if they got dirty when working in the fields.
With the remaining money, I bought so Liang, Rouzi yarn and muslin. I picked so of various designs and colors.
Except for the soft yarn which is slightly more expensive, everything else is very cheap.
I'll ask my sister-in-law to rember the address later and I'll co here next ti I buy cloth.
The money was almost spent, and Xu Yin sat back to the city by car with satisfaction.
Seeing her coming back with five pieces of cloth in her hands and a bulging bag on her shoulder, the staff compound was filled with excitent.
A few days ago, I heard that Xu Zhinian's sister was coming to visit relatives. Seeing how his wife had started moving all kinds of at and vegetables ho after receiving the telegram, we knew that Xu Zhinian's sister was very favored at ho.
Otherwise, the sister-in-law would not hesitate to spend her monthly salary on stocking up on at and vegetables just for her arrival?
The family mbers of the employees who were good friends with Mrs. Xu couldnt help but worry about her: With a sister like this, wouldnt it be difficult for her husbands family to live well?
Unexpectedly, Sister-in-law Xu didn't mind at all. On the contrary, she was looking forward to her sister-in-law's arrival more than any other man.
These family mbers dont say anything, but they dont whisper a few words in private: Who doesnt know that mothers-in-law and sisters-in-law are the most difficult to take care of in the world, is the Xu familys sister-in-law an exception?
Now I see Xu Yin carrying the cloth back to the staff compound, saying that she bought it for her sister-in-law.
Everyone has heard about Mrs. Xu renting a tailor shop from the director of the Won's Federation. It seems that these cloths are in preparation for the opening of the tailor shop.
It beca clear in an instant: why Sister-in-law Xu is so warm and considerate to her sister-in-law. Who wouldnt like having such a sister-in-law who is willing to worry about her sister-in-laws career?
