After the final draft of the skills competition was handed in, Li Rong had some free time.
Zhao Qingsong was busy selling his watches to exchange money for bigger business.
Today, Li Rong and Shen Ruoning made an appointment to go shopping together. She got up, washed up, had a meal, put on makeup and changed into a bright yellow dress before going out.
Riding a bicycle to the supply and marketing cooperative, oh, no, not the supply and marketing cooperative.
Li Rong and Shen Ruoning made an appointment to go to a new store.
The advertisements inside are very loud, and all you need is money, no tickets required.
The southern market policy opened up even earlier than the capital.
As soon as the policy came out, those people rushed to occupy shops like crazy, preparing to use them for business.
Of course, those are the bold ones.
The timid ones are still waiting and watching.
So, we can only watch brand new stores appear.
At this point, I can only slap my head and hate myself for not seizing the opportunity.
However, after this trend was confirmed, a wave of entrepreneurship started in the market.
When Li Rong went to Shen's house to celebrate Shen Ruoning's birthday for the first time, she thought about renting a store here in the capital.
But because of many things going on later, this idea has been shelved by her, and it's a little late now.
Today, Shen Ruoning is dressed in a particularly western style, wearing a pink dress and white lace stockings.
Li Rong glanced at her lip gloss and said meaningfully: "The lipstick is good, where did you buy it?"
Shen Ruoning's eyebrows were bright, she glanced at Li Rong, and asked instead of answering: "Does it look good?"
"It looks good." Li Rong smiled, "It looks familiar. Did you recruit it yourself or should I expose you?"
Shen Ruoning looked at her angrily: "...I tell you, your third brother gave it to you."
"Well!" Li Rong's eyes were filled with gossipy curiosity, "My third brother? Why did my third brother give it to you?"
Seeing Shen Ruoning's face getting more and more familiar, Li Rong became even more excited: "When did you meet behind my back?"
Shen Ruoning stamped her feet: "Oh, don't ask, I'm embarrassed."
Li Rong led An An and followed behind, laughing non-stop: "Are you still embarrassed? I still remember the night when my third brother sent us home, but you pestered people to ask,"
She deliberately picked up her throat and imitated Shen Ruoning's tone at that time, and said, "Does my name sound good?"
"Li Rong!" Shen Ruoning shouted.
After a while, Shen Ruoning suddenly asked: "Was my tone really so coquettish at that time?"
Li Rong: "Isn't that right? It's even more delicate than this. Do you think it sounds good or not?"
"Oh, don't say any more!"
Li Rong couldn't help but be curious: "How on earth did you meet me behind my back? You even gave me lipstick. If I guessed correctly it was from Y's family, right? How far have you developed? Should I change my name and call you third sister-in-law?" "
"Hmm~ I haven't even finished my horoscope yet." Shen Ruoning smiled shyly, with joy that couldn't be hidden in her eyes. "Of course, if you call me third sister-in-law, I won't be able to answer you."
"An'an, call me little aunt."
"You are really good at it," Li Rong smiled helplessly.
Shen Ruoning didn't care about her and only coaxed the young one. The cakes she bought at the snack stall came in handy. She brought a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake to An An's mouth: "Ask Auntie to give you some cake..."
"Auntie!"
"Hey!" Shen Ruoning was extremely happy.
Li Rong looked at her helplessly, but she also looked forward to a good outcome for Shen Ruoning and her third brother.
"Wow! This is so beautiful!" Shen Ruoning grabbed a piece of jewelry and brought it to Li Rong to show her, "This is so classic."
They were a pair of hollow silver earrings.
"Well, it's very retro. But this one suits you better." Li Rong gave her a jeweled red agate bead string.
Shen Ruoning's temperament is more out-of-the-box, and her appearance can't match such grand silver earrings.
Carnelian suits her very well.
"Hey, this is beautiful too." Shen Ruoning put down the silver earrings in her hand and picked up the string of red agate.
"Yes, this looks especially good with a sweater when the weather gets cold."
"Buy it." Shen Ruoning waved her hand, "Buy it if you like it."
The two of them bought a lot of things, and Shen Ruoning was the one who enjoyed the purchase the most, probably because the sound of "auntie" brought so much joy that she soon taught the little one to call it that way.
An An was taught several times and was curious why she should not call her "Sister Ruoning" but "little aunt". She remembered that her cousin's mother was called aunt.
But "Sister Ruoning" didn't give him a cousin.
An An's little head was full of doubts.
However, he cleverly called Shen Ruoning "Auntie."
He found that Sister Ruoning was particularly happy when she was called "aunt".
An'an got a bunch of endless snacks because of her "aunt's" joy!
After returning home with a full load, An An felt as happy as Shen Ruoning being called aunt.
Li Rong finally saw it: "You really like my third brother?"
"Can't you tell? Have you seen when I'm so proactive with other boys?"
"That's true." Li Rong nodded thoughtfully, "But let me tell you, there is my third brother on one side and you on the other. Both of you are very important to me. If you can be together well, then everyone will be happy. if not……"
"Oh," Shen Ruoning pouted, "If you look forward to me, maybe Ruizhi and I will get the certificate next year."
"Yo——" Li Rong trailed off, "Ruizhi?"
The store had just opened, and there were a lot of people joining in the fun. The food was good, and the stores selling daily necessities and beautiful clothes were very crowded.
Li Rong and the others walked around and knew what the store looked like, so their interest gradually faded away.
But I bought a lot of things.
When going back, Shen Ruoning was worried that it would be inconvenient for Li Rong to take the little one on a bicycle and carry shopping, so she offered to give Li Rong and the others a ride back.
Li Rong declined: "I don't have much to buy, so I can ride it back by myself. Besides, I still want to ride with you, so what should I do with my bicycle?"
"Oh well."
.
Some sellers have begun to store vegetables sold in stores, as well as many seafood that are rare in the capital, in freezers.
Where are those big refrigerators placed? It’s very bold.
Li Rong's eyes warmed as she looked at it. These people were not only the first ones to boldly respond to the opening up, but they were also the ones who dared to invest and fight.
They really deserve the money they make.
In the evening, Li Rong cooked a particularly sumptuous meal.
Spicy chicken running on the ground, squirrels and mandarin fish swimming in the water, pigeon stew flying in the sky...
Zhao Qingsong looked at a table of dishes: "What day is it today? It's so rich."
"My skills competition plan has been selected for the second round." Li Rong paused and added, "Thirty-two people in the class signed up, and half of them were selected in the first round."
"That's really good news," Zhao Qingsong kissed Li Rong, "My wife is the best."
After a while, Zhao Qingsong said mysteriously, "I also have good news, do you want to hear it?"
