Yuan Lihua currently has three little apprentices, all of whom were little girls who were in the welfare home. Among them, Xiaocui is quick in her hands and learns things quickly, and she is now considered half a master.
There are sufficient manpower, and the clothing customization business has been good in the past six months, so Chen Lishu plans to take the mid-to-high-end route for this branch, so the decoration will be more exquisite.
Based on the existing decoration materials, she decided to use a gypsum ceiling for the ceiling, warm wallpaper on the walls, and solid wood floors on the ground.
In addition to the clothing selection area and fitting area, there is also a rest area with sofas and coffee tables, and candies and tea are provided for guests to rest.
After Chen Lishu explained her plan to Zhao Xingwang, she left all the decoration matters to him.
The matter of the branch had just been settled, when Chen Lishu suddenly received a call from Nan Haitao, asking her to attend the wedding in a week's time.
The two have known each other for so many years. In addition to their cooperative relationship, they are also very good friends. Naturally, Chen Lishu wanted to attend his wedding in person.
"...The wedding is a week away. The two children have never left my side since they were born. Moreover, I thought that my mother must be homesick after being here for so long. Now that the weather is getting warmer, why not take the two children back early?
This way I can stay at home for a few more days.”
In the evening, when the couple were in the room, Chen Lishu discussed with Gu Xingdong.
Gu Xingdong's voice was a little dull: "Then Ruirui and I are the only ones left?" And it would be several days in advance.
Chen Lishu smiled: "There is also Sister Xiaoyue. At least you two don't have to worry about eating."
Gu Xingdong raised his eyes: "Don't you worry if we can have enough to eat together? What if Ruirui is playful, or I don't take care of you when you kick the quilt at night?"
Chen Lishu suddenly felt dumbfounded: "If you are a small town, I believe what you are saying. Ruirui has a calm personality. Besides, I believe in you. You will definitely be able to take good care of yourself and Ruirui."
Gu Xingdong hesitated for a moment: "I'll be back after the wedding. I'll pick you up then."
"Well, I'll be back after attending the wedding."
After agreeing with Gu Xingdong, Chen Lishu went downstairs to talk to Li Xiulan about the matter.
When she heard that she was going back to her hometown to stay for a few days, Li Xiulan was very happy and immediately started to pack up her clothes, including her own and those of her two children.
Chen Lishu also went to help. The adults only had to bring two changes of clothes. The most troublesome ones were mainly for the children.
Milk powder, milk bottles, diapers, especially for two children, there were two big bags of miscellaneous things packed away.
Before leaving, Chen Lishu said hello to Wang Aixiang and Yuan Lihua respectively.
After the branch opened, it needed people to manage it, especially to receive some mid-to-high-end customers, so she planned to transfer Wang Aixiang and Xiao Cui there. The original store was short of manpower except Tian Lin and needed to recruit another salesperson. Wang Aixiang and Tian were recruited in advance.
Lin Du can take him for a while first.
There is also a need to prepare for the stocking situation before the branch opens. The goods should not be too many but fine. Yuan Lihua can prepare them first.
After arranging everything, Chen Lishu and Li Xiulan took their two little ones home.
Before going home, Li Xiulan called Gu Shoufu, so as soon as the two adults and two children got off the train, Gu Shoufu and Zhang Qin greeted them.
"Dad, sister-in-law."
Chen Lishu shouted, and Gu Shoufu and Zhang Qin hurriedly took the child from her and Li Xiulan's hands.
"It's only been a few months since we last met. I didn't expect the child to have grown so big." Gu Shoufu looked at Xiaobai in his arms. She also blinked her dark eyes and looked at her grandfather completely disinterested.
Chen Lishu dressed her in a blue blouse with small floral flowers today, and a white ruffled bib around her neck. Coupled with her cute and cute expression, Gu Shoufu couldn't help but feel lighter while holding his granddaughter.
many.
On the other hand, Xiao Chengzi turned around in the aunt's arms and looked at the crowd that was still pouring out behind him. He kicked his little feet excitedly and shouted "Ahhhh" from time to time.
Zhang Qin patted Xiao Chengzi on the back and said with a smile: "The personalities of the brother and sister are really quite different."
Chen Lishu: "No, sometimes I have a headache when I am so energetic in a small town. I will probably have a noisy temper when I grow up."
As they talked, they walked outside together and soon saw a carriage tied not far from the train station.
In May, the crop seedlings in the fields have grown to palm-length, and people are busy weeding in the green fields.
Looking at the scene in the distance, the occasional breeze blows on the face, and the fresh smell of the earth makes people feel very comfortable.
Not long after the carriage started driving, the two children gradually closed their eyes and fell asleep. They did not wake up until they got home.
After sending the two children back to her room and blocking them by the kang with pillows, Chen Lishu began to clean up the room.
It was not until mid-afternoon that the two little guys finally had enough sleep and opened their eyes without crying. They lay on the kang and played by themselves for a while before slowly turning over and sitting up.
When they saw Chen Lishu standing on the ground, the two little guys immediately grinned their little mouths with only two teeth and started to laugh.
Although most of the time she would be overwhelmed by the two little guys, as long as she saw their innocent smiles, Chen Lishu felt that all the efforts were worth it.
After dinner in the evening, Chen Lishu took her two children to her parents' house to sit for a while.
As soon as the two little ones arrived at grandma's house, they were surrounded by several aunts.
"Sister, please leave Xiaocheng and Xiaobai here tonight, I want to sleep with them." Chen Lizi begged.
Chen Lifei nodded her forehead: "You are not honest when sleeping. Besides, aren't you afraid that they will wake you up for wetting the bed at night?"
After being exposed, Chen Lizi tightened her nose towards the third sister.
Chen Lishu smiled: "Your third sister is right, they still wet the bed. If you can't bear it, I will bring them over as soon as you get out of school tomorrow."
Wu Chunmei on the side suddenly said: "Your uncle and aunt have also gone to the provincial capital."
Chen Lishu was puzzled: "What are you going to do in the provincial capital?"
"After Baozhu was gone, the group of people who owed money didn't give up. They went there every day to make trouble. The couple had no choice but to sell the house. Originally, they wanted to go to your sister Limin's place, but her husband's family didn't agree. No.
I don’t know what I’m thinking, I guess it’s to avoid debt, I heard that I went to the provincial capital.”
Chen Manyun said with some regret.
Wu Chunmei: "They didn't look for you, did they?"
Chen Lishu: "What do you want me to do? I got the blisters on my feet by myself, and my biological daughter doesn't care. What can I, an outsider, do?"
"Why are you mentioning them? It's just a waste of time."
Chen Lifei interjected: "Sister, the fruit trees on the mountain will bear fruit this year, and a lot of sea buckthorn fruits are also planted. It is estimated to be more than 150 acres. I contacted the two medicinal companies we supplied before.
