A slightly warmer winter afternoon.

A small city located in the north.

Double 11 was just emerging at that time, it was still a new thing, and online shopping as a new term was still popular a few years ago, at that time, no one was optimistic, buying things, how can you see whether it is good or bad and suitable for it with just a few broken photos, and it is really good to give people before you get the money?

But the convenient and fast way of shopping gives people more choices, there is no pressure of physical store rent, water and electricity, and more favorable prices still make most people excited.

The era of e-commerce has arrived, and whether you want it or not, everyone's life will never be the same again. While everyone is ecstatic about this, there is one category of people that frowns: brick-and-mortar clothing stores.

Ni Hong's brand store has been open in the mall for almost seven years, which embodies all her hard work, she was optimistic about the clothing industry before giving up a good treatment of state-owned enterprise job opportunities to start her own business, I have to say that she is still accurate, at the beginning of the positioning in the mid-end market, the number of people in this market is relatively fixed, as long as she does it carefully, the quality of the agent's brand is excellent, it is easy to attract repeat customers, and most of the guests have stable incomes, spend money happily, and will not quarrel with you for small profits. At that time, at the beginning of the 21st century, the city was a small county-level city, not yet developed, there were not many people like Ni Hong with brains, when the store first opened, the door was full of birds, and a lot of rent was paid out, Ni Hong herself was also on fire, and the bubble on her mouth never disappeared, and her husband Zhang Jinghong's family was even more unsightly to her kind of loser behavior who gave up her good job and had to go to the sea to do business, and now she lost money every day. They must be doing everything possible to stop it, mother-in-law Zhou Guihua was so angry that she didn't have a smile on her face, and even put her words on the bright side, and closed the store as soon as possible to find a class, not a businessman, so don't come out and be embarrassed, young people are married and become mothers, and there is no stability at all. Because he didn't like his daughter-in-law, he didn't like how to look at his one-and-a-half-year-old granddaughter.

Zhou Guihua is not much educated, she is an authentic rural old lady who has not received much education, she is destined to catch up with the educated youths who go to the mountains and go to the countryside to be assigned to their village, and they look at one of them correctly, get married and have a baby. Zhang Jinghong is her fourth child and only son, she is luckier than the other sisters in the village who married the educated youth, her husband Zhang Qingsong is not a conscienceless, when the educated youth returned to the city later, racked his brains and tried his best to return to the city with his wife and the two daughters at the time, Zhou Guihua began to live a good life in the city, and even went back to her parents' house with her head held high, quite a bit of a villain.

Zhou Guihua's life is good, Zhang Qingsong's family is not a prominent family, but he is in a very useful position, and he arranged a job for Zhou Guihua, and she also has an iron rice bowl with primary school culture, and the family has food and clothing, and the income is not low. Zhou Guihua can be said to have a smooth sail in her life, all four children have been raised, three daughters have gone to college, worked after graduation, each has a family, and has a good life, although it is far away, but there is no shortage of things during the New Year's holidays, Zhou Guihua is very satisfied. Only this old son who broke her heart, I don't know why, I don't like to listen to her since I was a child, I think she is annoying, and I think she has to take care of everything.

Alas, children are debts! Zhou Guihua beat Zhang Jinghong for the first time and brought Ni Hong to her, and she didn't like this girl. A pair of eyes full of shrewdness and calculation, at first glance it is not a peaceful life, I really don't know what kind of fox means are used to charm my son, but there is no way, usually not too disobedient Her son for the first time said that he must marry this woman, saying that he loves her and only loves her.

Zhou Guihua scoffed at this, what is love? Can love be eaten as a meal? A hairy boy in his twenties, who has seen a few women, should mention only love, and even disobey his parents, his wings are really hard!

Find someone who has lived your life, it doesn't matter if you love it or not, what matters is what benefits your other half can bring you. Zhou Guihua glanced at her wife, who was silently reading the newspaper on the sofa without saying a word, look, she is a living example, such an honest and obedient husband, she picked it out from a group of educated youths with a lantern. Do you think that there were more than a dozen girls in the village who married educated youths, and how many of them followed them when they returned to the city? But she's Zhou Guihua!

Looking at it now, she Zhou Guihua has a fixed income every month, her work is idle, she retired a few years ago, she doesn't have to go to work, she is idle at home every day and has a pension to get, and her children have all been supplied. On the other hand, the rest of the people who were left in the village all reluctantly signed a divorce agreement, and were deceived by those men who smeared honey on their mouths, waiting for them to return to the city, and they would find a way to pick up the family and let them wait with their children. Wait, wait, wait, these people who left patted their butts and no news came back, Zhou Guihua knew, these educated youths returned to the city, and soon got married again, forgetting the wives and children in the countryside cleanly. A woman with no skills, with three or two children, in the countryside with little food and clothing, barely starving to death is good. Now most of them live a life facing the loess with their backs to the sky, and may not even enter the city a few times in their lives.

Zhou Guihua has always felt that her life is the most successful, and she desperately hopes that the children will follow her old path, which is the real winner who laughs to the end. She was too lazy to care too much about her three daughters, because Zhou Guihua was a bit patriarchal in her bones, otherwise she would not have had two more children after entering the city to live a good life. Although there was no family planning in that era, it was not common for families in the city to have a lot of children, no way, the housing was still very tight, the family slept in a palm-sized place, and there were too many people to live in.

The old son was born in 1979, just in time for family planning, and in the 80s, it was not so easy to give birth again. Zhou Guihua was eccentric when his son was young, and her husband was an honest man who didn't like to talk, he had food and clothing at home every day, he could take a newspaper and read the place all night, and he didn't have the slightest awareness of participating in the education of his children. It's not that Zhang Qingsong is evading responsibility, Zhou Guihua can't see through it, she feels that her husband is honest and lets her do everything, but the discerning person sees the problems between the two of them very clearly.

Zhang Jinghong is such an understanding person. It's rare that he grew up in his mother's doting since he was a child, but he didn't develop a young master's disease, at least the three views are relatively positive, and he can barely be regarded as a second-year young man with some turtle hair. He actually sympathized with his father sometimes, as a high school graduate of his era, he was definitely an intellectual, and after returning to the city, he also took a junior college exam with his own ability, and was assigned to work as an engineer in the factory after graduation, which is quite capable, but he married his mother who can't read a few big words, and there will be a common language between the two people. Mother has no other skills, quite unreasonable but housekeeping skills, father reasoned with her, no better than chickens and ducks, simply didn't listen to the heart and didn't bother, with her went, and then tossed and could not tear down this family.

Gradually, the mode of getting along between the two has precipitated like this, the mother's mouth is not idle, and the father's ears are not moving, but Zhang Jinghong in his youth can't stand it, and often has to complain for his father, but he is always defeated in front of his mother, not that he can't quarrel with his mother, but every time he quarrels to the end, his mother begins to pat his thigh and sit on the ground, crying how he is unfilial, which makes Zhang Jinghong, who is not too young, quite embarrassed.

So he swore that his future lover would never have the slightest shadow of his mother. Ni Hong has a sharp temperament, speaks and acts very methodically, and it is naturally easy to win Zhang Jinghong's favor, and the latter's own conditions are there, which is very attractive to girls.

This time, Zhou Guihua's tears and cries failed to change the fact that Ni Hong became her daughter-in-law, she reluctantly organized the wedding for her son, and picked her nose and eyes at Ni Hong, but she was stopped by her own son, and the nameless fire in her stomach became more and more prosperous. happened to take advantage of this time when Ni Hong vomited blood, and this time, even Zhang Jinghong had no position to stand by his daughter-in-law's side, the money spent was all saved by him after working for several years, and even part of it was the bride price given to Ni Hong by his parents, which was pasted by Ni Hong's marriage family to his daughter, it is not easy to save his hard-earned money, and spending it is like splashing water, how can he not feel distressed.

Ni Hong has a stubborn temperament, and he doesn't look back at the things he has determined, so he naturally stalks his neck and is unwilling to admit defeat, gritting his teeth and taking all the jewelry he bought when he got married, and he must stick to the end to see if he has a life of working for people all his life

This time, she won the bet. After surviving the most difficult period, the economic situation in the small town is very good, people's wages are generally rising, and the brand she represents is also widely known because of the early publicity, and the money is not spent in vain, and soon she ended the history of losing money, and began to make profits, and the atmosphere at home has eased, at least no one is cynical anymore.

Later, under Ni Hong's care, sometimes the monthly income of this small shop could catch up with Zhang Jinghong's annual income.

But every industry will gradually go downhill after experiencing brilliance, the rise of online shopping has greatly impacted the physical industry, if at the beginning of the online shopping restrictions for various reasons are not mature enough, then in 10 years, the physical clothing industry has been impacted almost unbearable. With the increasing rent and labor, Ni Hong suddenly felt a little frustrated, feeling that she was like a stupid fish who went against the current and didn't know how to advance or retreat, so ignorant of practice.

But this shop is all her hard work, it is not easy to develop to today's scale, how can she be willing to give up lightly, but looking at the lower and lower operating income and higher and higher rent, she sighed, thinking that this rent is due, and some regrets that she still didn't get home at the beginning, why not buy a few more shops to rent to others, and now you can earn a lot of money without doing anything else.

When Zhou Guihua came to deliver food with her little daughter in her arms, she saw Ni Hong frowning and writing in front of the cash register, there was no one in the store, and the only shopping guide raised her head with a smile when she heard the movement, and saw that she was slightly disappointed, and lowered her head to play with her mobile phone. Zhou Guihua pursed her lips, she was so lifeless, what else did she not accept her fate, this person, she couldn't earn her life, she had already seen that Ni Hong didn't look like a blessed person, it was really such a hard work, only in her thirties, she looked older than her mother-in-law from her face, if she hadn't spent a lot of money on skin care products that she had bought for maintenance, she probably wouldn't be able to look at it now, a woman, so what should you do?

Zhou Guihua put down the meal and handed the little granddaughter she had been holding to Ni Hong. She finally said that her wife asked someone to get a second child for her son, and she was waiting to hold her grandson with joy, but she didn't expect that she was pregnant in October and gave birth to another girl, phew, what a blessing, she deserves to have no son to support her for the elderly!

Thinking so in my heart, she naturally doesn't want to see this little granddaughter, usually at home as long as the little granddaughter cries, she will only beat the little granddaughter to cry more, feeding and changing clothes is not dedicated, often see a little girl all day dirty, pants are often wet and then dry themselves, with a smell of urine on the body.

Ni Hong felt a little sorry for her little daughter, what kind of character is her mother-in-law, she has been getting along for five or six years, Ni Hong is clear, but she is busy in the store, she wants to think about the future of her two daughters, so she has to ruthlessly hand them over to her mother-in-law.

But at this time, Ni Hong didn't know that in the long future, the old lady would naturally not treat her little granddaughter badly, because this poor child had no chance to grow up at all!

Because it was not a weekend, there were very few people shopping for things, Zhou Guihua finished delivering the meal, and she was not in a hurry to go back, so she walked around with her little granddaughter in her arms, and bought some miscellaneous things, and then she was satisfied and ready to go home, passing by Ni Hong's store, saying hello to her and leaving.

When I was taking the elevator downstairs, an accident happened suddenly! To be continued.
