We are all reborn, who will be your control group?

Finally, the two of them decided on a price. Wen Qin did not decide on a pattern, and let Aunt Zhang come up with her own ideas. She would raise the price if the item was good.

Subjective initiative is better than essay writing, right?

After Aunt Zhang's matter was settled, Wenqin went to the town.

Wenqin had almost never been to Machinery Factory No. 4, but the town was small, so it was not difficult to find.

It was just that the factory had been closed for the holiday and there were no people around, which was completely different from the bustling living quarters across the street. Because it was cold, the guards had their windows and doors tightly shut. When they saw Wen Qin pushing her bicycle to the door, they opened the window. A young man stuck his head out and called Wen Qin, "What are you doing? It's holiday. Go across the street to find someone."

At that time, being a doorman was not a job for retired people. The factory security department was a formal job with a regular staff. Many demobilized soldiers were later merged into the police station and had a stable job.

So when Wen Qin went up to talk about Jie Mingxia, the young man immediately let out a cry.

"You are my sister-in-law? Brother Mingxia went out with the factory director and is not in the factory now."

The young man enthusiastically invited Wen Qin into the guard room, where there was a stove with hot water burning on it.

"My name is Yu Mai, you can just call me Xiao Yu. Brother Ming Xia takes good care of us on weekdays. Come, have some water."

Wen Qin also had some candies, dates, and peanuts in her bag, so she grabbed a handful and put them on the table: "Thank you, Xiao Yu, take these, and have a happy new year."

During the Chinese New Year, it was not appropriate to refuse these things, so Yu Mai accepted them without hesitation: "Why are you here, sister-in-law? Are you looking for Brother Mingxia for something? If he comes back, I will tell him right away."

Wen Qin pretended to be embarrassed and said, "That's not the case. I've been married for more than half a month and haven't come to the factory to see it. I'm just curious."

It's not easy to be a factory security guard nowadays. You need to be quick-witted, smart and sensible. Wen Qin didn't say anything, but he seemed to understand everything. He even pretended to look out the window several times and said, "I understand. My sister-in-law is here to check on me."

Wen Qin blushed and lowered her head: "No, I believe in Comrade Jie Mingxia."

Yu Mai was obviously an upright and good comrade. He did not have any other thoughts just because Wen Qin was not so good-looking, such as saying that she was not worthy of his wise and brave brother Ming Xia. "Sister-in-law, you are right to think so. Our brother Ming Xia is definitely a good man that is hard to find in the world, but you can't just leave him alone like this."

Wen Qin looked up in surprise. She could tell that Yu Mai and Jie Mingxia were really close. This was unexpected good news. "What's going on? Could it be that someone else is against Jie Mingxia..."

Yu Mai said mysteriously, "Sister-in-law, I really didn't mean to say anything. Don't think too much about it. My brother Ming Xia is absolutely upright and has nothing to fear. It's just that a female comrade has come to the factory recently, and we all think that female comrade has some feelings for Brother Ming Xia."

Yu Mai immediately changed his tone after he finished speaking, "It's just that the female comrade has that intention. Our brother Ming Xia definitely doesn't have that intention. It's just that she just came and she didn't say it clearly. None of us are embarrassed to run to her and tell her that brother Ming Xia has a wife and ask her to respect herself. Girls are shy, so sister-in-law, you just need to come to the factory a few more times to make Comrade Bai give up when she sees the difficulty."

"Comrade Bai?" Wen Qin asked deliberately, "Is it Comrade Bai Bo who sent us leather shoes?"

"Ah, sister-in-law, you know!" Yu Mai immediately looked relieved, then asked in confusion, "Leather shoes? What leather shoes?"

Wen Qin was also confused: "Comrade Jie Mingxia bought a pair of leather shoes for me and Gui Qiu. Someone saw that it was a female comrade named Bai Bo who brought them to us. I wanted to thank her. Those shoes are so rare."

Yu Mai suddenly realized, "The shoes were sent by Section Chief Qiao from the military leather shoe factory. They were kept in our security department for several days and Comrade Bai happened to see them and sent them over."

Wen Qin also acted surprised: "I see, I almost thanked the wrong person."

There was not much information in the subsequent conversation. The two chatted about Jie Mingxia for a while. Most of the time, Yu Mai was praising Jie Mingxia and Wen Qin was listening.

Through these chatter, Wen Qin gradually got a rough idea of ​​Mingxia's image in the unit.

He is a down-to-earth person, very loyal, and very good to his demobilized brothers. He has strong professional skills and is highly regarded by factory leaders. He will help anyone who asks him for help and he will help them in any way he can.

In short, all good words.

Wen Qin grabbed a few more handfuls of peanuts for Yu Mai, then stood up and left.

Wen Qin walked to the door and took a look at the stove. Finally, she couldn't help but speak: "When the stove is burning, if there are people in the room, it's best to open the windows and don't cover it so tightly."

Yu Mai sighed, ran to the back and opened the window a crack: "Have a safe trip, sister-in-law. Remember to come more often. Everyone wants to see you."

The town was very lively because of the New Year. When I passed by the cinema, I saw a movie poster on the wall. It was an old movie that became very famous in later generations.

The surrounding area was full of villagers who were pulling small wooden boxes to set up stalls.

Sweet maltose, ceramic birds that make sounds when blown with water, small windmills...

This kind of small market will last until the second day of the second month, and then it will close. Wen Qin immediately regretted not coming out to take a look earlier.

She had lived alone for so long that she almost forgot that although there were no self-employed people at that time, there were still markets.

At this kind of big fair, you can sell anything.

The hair flower business can definitely be started.

Wen Qin figured out Bai Amber's situation and saw a business opportunity. She was in a good mood and rode back home humming a song.

Then he rummaged through his boxes and began to prepare to go to the market.

"Gui Qiu, Gui Qiu, let's go to the market tomorrow to have some fun."

In addition to those big packages of hair ties for 9 yuan including shipping, she also bought a lot of DIY materials.

Because the finished products after DIY can not only be bought in this era, but can also be sold on online shopping software, so there is no need to worry about it.

She bought a small box used to sell accessories at night markets in later generations, then handed Jie Guiqiu a bunch of hair flowers and asked her to pick out her favorite one and put it in.

Wen Qin himself is not very confident about the aesthetic taste of this era, fearing that his works may be too advanced and thus fail to sell.

The aunt and sister-in-law happily prepared for the whole afternoon, filled the box up, and then tied it to the bicycle.

When Xie Mingxia came back, she saw the two of them giggling like little foxes who had stolen a chicken. She was a little surprised and asked, "Has Aunt Zhang been here?"

Xie Guiqiu nodded vigorously. The new clothes made by Aunt Zhang matched with the hair ornaments her elder sister-in-law had just shown her. She thought about how she would be the most handsome guy on the whole street when she went out to pull the rabbit lanterns during the Yuanxiao Festival. Xie Guiqiu felt that she would be able to wake up with a smile every day starting from tonight.

Wen Qin was not as conceited as she was. When she saw Jie Mingxia, she thought of what happened at the machinery factory today and said with a smile, "Isn't your factory on holiday? I went to your factory to look for you today. How come you went out with the factory director?"

Xie Mingxia's expression remained unchanged. "There was an accident at the Sixth Machinery Factory. We sent Engineer Chen over to fix the machine. Otherwise, we won't be able to start work after the New Year. I went there as a driver."

After saying that, he took out a pack of cigarettes.

He is open and honest, and doesn't seem to feel guilty at all.
