Chapter 38: Child Brides
This time, Lin Xiaoliang thought badly, these noble ladies are so interested in customized goods, although they also want to get this show off capital, but more of them want to make personal favors with it.
After all, if they don't need it themselves, they can transfer it to others.
"Mrs. Liang, there is really no way to disclose this in advance. As I said before, the opening of the customized service is based on the birthday of a person randomly selected from the members above the silver level, and there are still a small number of silver and gold level members who have not come to the store to apply for membership cards, and the drawing activity can only be postponed. Lin Xiaoliang was so worn that he couldn't help it, and sighed.
"It's May now, and if you get a birthday from January to April, won't the customized service be opened next year?" Mrs. Liang said dissatisfied.
"There's no way around it." Lin Xiaoliang only said lightly.
Another guest left disappointed.
"Boss, the No. 29 medicinal wine is about to be restocked." Lu Xiaoting walked out from behind the shelves and said.
She is a new clerk in the gift shop, and there is also a girl named Xiang Yun, both of whom graduated from junior high school, one is handsome and the other is sweet, but they are both diligent and honest.
"I see." Lin Xiaoliang put the account book in his hand into the drawer, looked up and said, "I'll make up for the medicine and wine tomorrow morning, you and Xiang Yun are optimistic about the store, I'll go back first." ”
"Got it, boss." After hesitating, Lu Xiaoting said: "My grandfather was discharged from the hospital today, can I go back earlier, boss?" ”
She hasn't been in this store for a long time, so although the boss doesn't look embarrassed, he hasn't figured out whether the other party is really easy to get along with or is inconsistent, so she feels very apprehensive when she says this.
After all, her current treatment is really good, as long as she works eight hours a day, she can live an easy life, and she can get a salary of 240 yuan per month. She didn't want to lose such a good job.
"Yes, but if you leave a few hours early, you'll lose a few hours' wages." Lin Xiao said obediently.
"Also, you have to make sure that someone is watching you when you're not in the store during business hours."
"No problem. I know. I didn't expect her to be so easy to speak, Lu Xiaoting nodded hurriedly.
Come out of the Garden of the Heart. Lin Xiaoliang didn't go home, but went directly to her sister-in-law Zheng Cuicui.
Zheng Cuicui happened to be on vacation, and when she heard her intention, she couldn't help but point at herself in surprise, "Vice President, me?" ”
Lin Xiaoliang nodded, "Actually, it's just a name, and you don't usually need to work overtime." Just go to a meeting when there's something important. ”
"That's no problem, do you have enough money for such a charitable foundation?" Zheng Cuicui felt that this younger brother and sister looked calm and peaceful, but they were really decent when they were making up something.
Although it was the first time she heard about the charitable foundation, she thought it was very good, those noble ladies who had nothing to do at home were idle at home in addition to causing trouble or comparing gossip, why not find something meaningful for them to do?
"It's enough, and it's not about making it big all at once." Lin Xiaoliang smiled.
Seeing this, Zheng Cuicui also relieved.
It didn't take much to get to Han Shouzhen, and as soon as she heard Lin Xiaoqian say that she agreed to be the secretary general of the charitable foundation.
Third stop. Lin Xiaoliang planned to find Lu Huifang, this childless but benevolent wife was her favorite candidate for the chairman.
The other party only occasionally goes to the hospital for physical reasons and can't do the surgery himself, so he is very free on weekdays. There is no major physical problem, and the age of his early fifties is not too old, and he is fully capable of serving as the chairman of the foundation.
"Can I do this?" Listening to her words, Lu Huifang was very moved, but she was a little hesitant.
After all, it was the first time she had heard the words of the charitable foundation, and although she could basically understand what it meant, she was a little timid about things she had never touched.
"It's okay, it's the first time everybody's doing it. Without experience, you can only explore it on your own. ”
to the end. Lu Huifang still agreed.
Next, Lin Xiaoliang began to frequent those upper-class families. Stop. It was a real test for her.
In her previous life, as the editor-in-chief, although she had dealt with many people and talked about cooperation, it was all under the premise that both parties were interested.
But this time it was different, it can be said that she was completely "in a hurry" to invite others, which really made her feel uncomfortable at first. After many times, I slowly adapted to it, and I no longer felt that I couldn't wipe my face.
Fortunately, those idle ladies and ladies are very interested in this kind of reputation that can show themselves and be beneficial to their reputation, and occasionally a few are worried about paying money, but Lin Xiaoliang did not force it.
Finally got the people on the council almost together, Lin Xiaoliang took a rare nap in the store, and took the quadruplets for a walk in the farm together, but found that the jade mother on the side was a little speechless and stopped.
"Mom Yu, what's wrong with you?" After waiting for a long time to see that she didn't say anything, Lin Xiao simply took the initiative to ask.
"Ma'am, I have something to say." Yu Ma hesitated for a moment.
"What's the matter?" Lin Xiaoliang pulled back Xiao Chunfeng, who was about to come over to watch the farm staff grazing cattle, and asked a little casually.
“…… Zhang's mother, she may want to adopt Zhang Xin. Jade Ma gritted her teeth and said.
"Zhang Xin?" Lin Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment before she realized that it was the girl who stayed at her home for rehabilitation, and said strangely: "What is she going to adopt Zhang Xin for?" ”
Yu Ma looked stunned, and snorted: "Isn't there a Jian'an?" ”
Lin Xiaoliang didn't understand what this had to do with Jian'an, and her eyes touched Yu'an's embarrassed expression, and then she said in a trance: "You mean she wants Zhang Xin to be Jian'an's child daughter-in-law?" ”
Yu Ma nodded, "She probably felt embarrassed to say it, but she asked secretly in front of me several times." ”
She sighed and said, "Although Jian'an is a fool, she always thinks that she can marry her and have children, and pass on the incense of the old Yu family." ”
Lin Xiaoliang frowned, she understood Zhang's mother's thoughts, but although Zhang Xin's eyesight was highly myopia, there was nothing wrong with her life, and Yu Jian'an ...... Although she liked the child, she asked herself how she would be reluctant to marry her daughter to a mentally handicapped child.
"I know that my wife has a good heart and feels ashamed of Zhang Xin, but ...... I said something unkind to my wife, although Jian'an is a fool, but obedient and considerate and willing to work, if the child goes to the welfare home, with her temperament, she may not be better than Jian'an's child daughter-in-law in the future. Jade Mother said in a low voice.
"Zhang's mother said that if Zhang Xin is a child daughter-in-law for Jian'an, she is willing to provide her with school and study, and will treat her as her own daughter. You also know her temperament, and there will never be a half-false sentence when she says it. ”
Lin Xiaoqian frowned, "You let me think about it." ”
When she returned home with the quadruplets in the evening, she saw Zhang's mother mopping the floor, and Jian'an took a feather duster to dust behind the TV.
Speaking from the heart, although Jian'an lacks IQ, he is a really good child. She had seen people with such fever and brains in her previous life, but those people were usually very lazy and playful, so that they would not live long, and at the age of forty or fifty, they would die of illness due to the three highs caused by gluttony - because they maintain the IQ of young children, so this habit is reasonable, but as an adult, it is absolutely intolerable.
But Jian'an is different, he is very diligent, although he also has a craving for delicious things like a child, but he is very sensible and can restrain himself, he may not be able to do those jobs that require brains, but some manual work is definitely competent.
And the child was taught very well by Zhang's mother, and his living habits are in the same vein as Zhang's mother, and he even knows how to save money, know how to save, know how to be good to the people around him, and if the people around him are bullied, he will also help.
The girl who marries him may not be rich and glorious, but she will definitely be safe and healthy.
And Zhang Xin ...... Lin Xiaoliang has never appreciated the character who is too introverted and timid, and likes to stuff everything in his stomach. With such a character, if you want to say how much she can achieve, it can only be comforting words.
Come to think of it, as long as my sister can have enough food and clothing, I'll be satisfied.
Lin Xiaoliang sighed and said to Zhang's mother, "Zhang's mother, come over for a moment." ”
Zhang's mother was stunned, and quickly put down the mop in her hand and sat over, "What's the matter with Mrs." ”
"I know what you're thinking."
Mama Zhang didn't understand what she was talking about at first, but then saw her eyes fall on Jian'an, her face stiffened, and she swallowed a little nervously, but she still spoke: "Madam, I know this is a bit unkind, but I promise to be good to that child." ”
“…… I can't do that. Seeing Zhang's mother looking up at herself, Lin Xiaoliang sighed and said, "Whether to go to the welfare home or stay to be Jian'an's child daughter-in-law, let Zhang Xin choose for herself." If she agrees to be a child daughter-in-law, she will ask for *'s opinion again, and if he agrees, let Zhang Xin stay. ”
She actually doesn't approve of raising such a child daughter-in-law, rather than this, it is better to wait for Jian'an to go to the countryside to find a girl with some physical defects when she grows up, so that you and I would like to have less trouble.
And Zhang Xin is still young now, and his heart is undecided, who knows if anything will go wrong in the future?
- Lin Xiaoliang didn't know, she inadvertently became a prophecy.
"Okay, okay, I'll ask." Mother Zhang didn't expect Lin Xiaoliang to support her, and if she didn't object, she would hear her say this, and immediately said happily.
Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to see Jian'an with an ignorant face, and couldn't help but touch his head with pity.
After that, I don't know what Zhang's mother said to Zhang Xin, anyway, she agreed to stay and be Jian'an's child daughter-in-law, and Zhang's mother also took Jian'an to the psychiatric hospital and got *'s approval.
Since then, under Zhang's mother's instructions, Jian'an has been getting better and better to Zhang Xin, protecting her in everything, and even Shen Yinian has complained to Lin Xiaoliang several times that he values sex and neglects friends.
It's Zhang Xin, the kid is still like that, always keeping her head down and making no noise, and Lin Xiaoliang can't see what she is thinking. (To be continued)
