Chapter 1461: Honest Woman 44

When Lingling was learning to walk, Shi Xiangdong and his wife worked hard and finally bought a shop not far from the vegetable market. On the opening day, Yuanchun went to support them and bought two sets of clothes.

Chen Xiaozhen gave her two pairs of socks and a scarf, and also gave her an additional discount.

Seeing that his brother and sister-in-law had made money, Shi Xiangnan became a little anxious and ran to the store to learn from them. A few days later, Shi Xiangnan sold his regular job for 600 yuan, took the money, and went to the provincial capital with Shi Xiangdong.

Shi Xiangnan did not set up a stall in the vegetable market or steal his brother and sister-in-law's business. Instead, he went to set up a stall in front of the largest shoe factory in the county. During the shoe factory's off-get off work and lunch breaks, many female workers would gather in front of his stall.

He was too busy to handle the work by himself, so he called his mother to help him sell the goods.

Half a month later, he used the money he earned to buy a yard in a poor area to live in. This place was close to the shoe factory, so he didn't have to ride his bicycle for several hours every day from the coal mine to the shoe factory.

After buying the house, Shi Xiangnan worked even harder in his business. He would go to the morning market to set up a stall every morning, and then rush to the shoe factory at ten o'clock to sell some goods during the lunch break of the female workers in the shoe factory.

In the afternoon, he would sometimes go home to take a nap, and sometimes he would stand at the entrance of the alley in the slum area for three hours. However, the people who could live in the slum area were all poor, and few of them were willing to spend money on new clothes, so he could only sell a few pieces in an afternoon.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, he ran to the shoe factory again and took advantage of the time when the female workers got off work at six o'clock to sell some shoes.

A few months later, he bought a shop on a newly built street in front of the shoe factory and opened a clothing store. He had to purchase goods and run the store by himself, and was too busy to handle it, so he called Shi's mother to help run the store.

Shi's mother was reluctant to leave Shi's father alone at home, so she actively arranged blind dates for her younger son, but Shi Xiangnan was busy with his business and had no time for blind dates.

Sometimes, when Shi's mother went home, she would call Yuanchun to help in the store.

"You silly girl, this is your second brother's shop, don't be so dishonest as to take advantage of the money earned from selling clothes. If your second brother finds out that you have embezzled his money, I will beat you to death."

Before leaving, Shi's mother still felt uneasy and threatened Yuanchun.

Yuanchun was so angry that she laughed, "Mom, if you don't trust me, then you can ask someone else to help. I'm working for my second brother for free, and I won't be treated like a thief by you. "

"You don't have to pay for asking others to help you. You are his biological sister. He is too busy to take care of everything. What if you help him for a few days? Do you still want to be paid?"

Shi's mother glared at her with a dark face.

Yuanchun shut up and didn't bother with her.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Shi favored boys over girls. They wished their daughter could devote herself to their two sons 24 hours a day without asking for any compensation.

Yuanchun can't do this.

Fortunately, Shi Xiangnan was not as petty as his mother. He trusted Yuanchun very much. When there were many people at the end of the get off work day, he would let Yuanchun collect the money while he helped the customers get their clothes.

When the store closed, he invited Yuanchun and her daughter to have dinner at a newly opened restaurant nearby.

I ordered two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, and also ordered a plate of dumplings for Lingling.

After dinner, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. It was too dark outside. This was a poor area with all kinds of people. Shi Xiangnan was worried about Yuanchun and her daughter walking home at night, so he sent them to their doorstep before separating.

The next day, Shi's mother rushed over from the coal mine and pulled Shi Xiangnan aside to ask, "Did that damn girl cause you any trouble yesterday?"
