Chapter 148 Someone from the Courtyard
Literacy campaign takes time and cannot be completed in a day or two.
With the success of the canteen night school, in the next few months, led by Director Zheng and cooperated by Lin Chaoming of the Commerce Bureau, the heads of night schools in major factories in the city took turns to come to the civilian canteen to study.
Of course, every time they came, He Daqing would also bring Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru to discuss the matter together.
Xu Huizhen is responsible for sharing some management experience of the canteen and night school organizations, while Chen Xueru is responsible for negotiating cooperation matters with these persons in charge.
Today, Xueru's small schoolbag has become the most popular backpack in the entire city. The persons in charge of these night schools naturally would not let Chen Xueru donate so many things in vain. Except for the initial partners, the subsequent night schools basically purchased things from Chen Xueru!
Later on, there were not only school bags, but also cheap and affordable gifts such as handkerchiefs, scarves, headscarves, etc., which were specially made by Xueru Silk Shop.
Taking advantage of this wave of popularity, Chen Xueru's silk shop's business quickly expanded from Zhengyangmen to all parts of the city.
Before we knew it, the brand of Xueru Silk Shop had gradually become established in major factories.
In order to give back to Chen Xueru, many factories even began to purchase her fabrics in large quantities, specifically for making work clothes for the workers.
As a result, the sales volume of Chen Xueru's silk shop increased several times compared to before.
"Well……"
The weather was getting colder and the teapot on the stove was gurgling with the boiling hot water.
Chen Xueru, who was lying on the side, was almost screamed out by being pushed by someone.
About forty minutes later, the movement in the house stopped.
He Daqing picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup of hot water, and then let out a long sigh.
The beautiful lady in front of me is becoming more and more skilled in her techniques. If I weren't so experienced, I probably wouldn't be able to hold on for so long.
"It's almost time. I should go back. Chen Xueru, Happy New Year!"
After resting for a while, He Daqing put on his clothes and prepared to leave.
Yes, after a busy year, the new year is coming again.
"wait!"
Chen Xueru rolled her eyes at He Daqing, and a hint of resentment appeared in her beautiful eyes.
You ate everything and left without saying goodbye, and just said "Happy New Year" to me perfunctorily?
You go home to a warm bed with your wife and children, but what about me? I have to stay alone in an empty bed during the New Year!
However, Chen Xueru is not such a petty person in this regard.
After muttering a few words inwardly, Chen Xueru handed a pile of clothes made of new fabrics to He Daqing.
"It's Chinese New Year, let's go back and buy new clothes for the kids."
Chen Xueru looked at He Daqing and said.
"Ah, this is... a bit too much, isn't it?"
Looking at the package of new clothes in front of him, He Daqing couldn't help but widen his eyes.
There are so many new styles of clothes, and the fabrics are obviously of high quality. For ordinary people, it would be amazing to be able to afford just one piece throughout the year, right?
And Chen Xueru actually gave herself a big bag!
You don’t need to count to know that this woman probably prepared one for each of her family members!
"What's this!"
Chen Xueru rolled her eyes and said calmly,
"If it weren't for you, my silk shop wouldn't have done so well these past few months. Just consider this as a small token of my appreciation to you. Take it home and wear it with confidence!"
Over the past six months, thanks to He Daqing's help, otherwise the fabrics in her silk shop would not have sold so well.
Besides, He Daqing is her man. What's wrong with earning some money and giving it to him?
"alright."
He Daqing nodded, hugged Chen Xueru for a while, then took a package of clothes and leisurely left Chen Xueru's silk shop.
I sighed silently in my heart, am I considered a gigolo? It seems to be quite delicious.
He Daqing rode his bicycle back to the Nanluoguxiang courtyard.
However, as soon as he entered the door, He Daqing was met with many envious looks.
"Brother He, you're back!"
"It looks like I made a lot of money this year. Wow, I bought so many clothes!"
"Happy New Year, Brother He, are you going to rest now?"
Many people in the front yard greeted He Daqing.
The most enthusiastic among them was Yan Bugui.
In the past few months, because of He Daqing, Yan Bugui went to the civilian canteen almost every day, which meant that he had an extra job besides teaching!
Don’t underestimate this teaching opportunity. After a few months, not to mention other things, just the discount coupons in the cafeteria have earned me a lot of money!
There were even times when Yan Bugui brought his entire family to the civilian canteen to eat their fill, and he made his wife Qian Yongmei and several children eat with great delight.
At this time, Yan Bugui finally understood the truth of life.
He Daqing is his god of wealth. As long as he follows He Daqing and works hard, his family will never lack food and clothing in the future.
Look at the cloth in He Daqing's hand. It's the best quality from Xueru Silk Shop! The boss made a lot of money and gave it to He Daqing to thank him!
This life is really enviable.
"Happy New Year, Happy New Year!"
He Daqing smiled and pushed the cart into the yard.
When he handed these clothes to Qin Huairu, she was also shocked.
“So many new clothes?”
Qin Huairu widened her eyes, her pretty face full of disbelief.
Just looking at the fabrics, each piece is not cheap.
"Daqing, aren't we a bit too extravagant... It's just a New Year's Eve..."
Qin Huairu looked at He Daqing and said.
Since the birth of the child, the family has spent a lot in the past six months. Qin Huairu had been thinking of saving some money for the New Year, but she didn't expect He Daqing to buy so many things again.
"What's the big deal? These are all gifts from Chen Xueru!"
He Daqing touched the little kid in Qin Huairu's arms, teasing him and saying,
"This literacy campaign has made Chen Xueru a lot of money. This is her thank you gift. You can wear it comfortably. Oh, and there should be some clothes that our mother wears, right? Pick one for her!"
Taking care of children is hard work. In the past few months, my mother-in-law, Liu, has helped a lot.
Seeing that the Chinese New Year was approaching, He Daqing simply asked Liu to stay, and then called his father-in-law and brother-in-law over, preparing to get together here this year and celebrate the New Year together.
"Okay, then I'll be at ease!"
When Qin Huairu heard that these clothes were given away for free by the silk shop, a smile appeared on her face.
She didn't think much about the relationship between Chen Xueru and He Daqing.
After all, during this period, even the neighbors in the yard were talking about the night school in the cafeteria, and even each household went to get their small schoolbags!
Chen Xueru's silk shop took the opportunity to make so much money, so it was no big deal to give her family a few pieces of clothing.
But having said that, my man is really awesome!
"Come on, come on, neighbors, come out for a moment. The street office has something to tell you!"
Just as the couple was chatting about family matters, a voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard gate.
