Chapter Ninety-Five: The Uninvited Guest
On Tuesday morning, Zhou Xiaoyun took Xiaobao to school after breakfast as usual. Dabao's steps were fast, impatient, and he waited for his younger brothers and sisters to leave early.
Zhou Xiaoyun and Xiaobao talked and laughed all the way to the school, and each entered the classroom.
Zhou Xiaoyun sat down in her place and just opened her schoolbag, when she saw Fang Wenchao waving to her outside the classroom and signaling her to go out. Zhou Xiaoyun was a little strange, why didn't Fang Wenchao enter the classroom and tell her? God mysterious!
When he walked out of the classroom door, he saw that Fang Wenchao was not alone, there were two young women standing next to him. One of them is Fang Wenchao's new wife Dai Shuqi, and the other is a little older, about thirty years old, and Dai Shuqi looks like she is dressed fashionably, and it is estimated that she is Dai Shuqi's sister or something.
Zhou Xiaoyun secretly speculated in his heart, and he couldn't lose his politeness: "Teacher Dai, hello to this aunt." ”
Dai Shuqi smiled sweetly, and her young face was filled with the shy joy of a newlywed: "Wen Chao, is this the doll made by this child?" It looks like a very well-behaved and quiet girl. ”
Fang Wenchao had a look of pride on his face that couldn't be concealed: "Of course, I don't look at whose students it is." Zhou Xiaoyun is not only capable of this, he is almost catching up with me in the harmonica and playing the accordion quite well. I have been practicing calligraphy for more than two years, and I have never taken the second place in the grade! ”
Can you not be proud? This is his own proud disciple.
Zhou Xiaoyun was embarrassed to be praised, how could he praise people in front of him like this. It seems that his skin is still too thin, and he feels uncomfortable when he hears others praise him. She hurriedly changed the topic: "Teacher Fang, do you have anything to do with me?" ”
Fang Wenchao and Dai Shuqi glanced at each other, and finally Fang Wenchao spoke: "Oh, that's the case." Didn't you make the right doll for me two months ago? At that time, I took the doll back, and Shuqi liked it very much, so she put the doll at the head of the bed. In the last two days, Shuqi's sister is also this aunt,"
Fang Wenchao pointed to the fashionable girl: "She saw it when she came to our house to play, and she liked the handmade doll you made very much, and wanted to come to you to ask how this doll was made." ”
At that time, the fashionable girl smiled at Zhou Xiaoyun: "Hello, little friend, my name is Dai Shuping." I opened a boutique in the county that specialized in gifts, selling handicrafts and stuff. I saw the doll you made and thought it was very good, and I wanted to come and talk to you. ”
Only then did Zhou Xiaoyun realize that he had taken a fancy to the doll he made.
She was a little embarrassed: "Teacher Fang, is this what you are talking about?" ”
Fang Wenchao patted his head: "Look at me, let's go, go to my dormitory." Let's sit down and talk. ”
A few people in the group talked about Fang Wenchao's dormitory while walking, Fang Wenchao still had class in the first class, so Zhou Xiaoyun chatted with the Dai Shuqi sisters in the dormitory and went to class first.
Dai Shuping is not a businessman, and he picked up all the good things with his mouth, and he became familiar with Zhou Xiaoyun after a while. started to take a bite of a small cloud, and he didn't have to let Zhou Xiaoyun call himself Sister Shuping.
Zhou Xiaoyun thanked Bumin, thinking that I would not be a big loss if I called you a woman of one or thirty years old and called my sister, twenty-eight years in my previous life and three years in this life, I am older than you in terms of actual age!
Dai Shuping went around and around and finally got to the point: "Xiaoyun, I'm a straight person, and I can say it if I have something to say." I've always had a good business with this shop, selling high-priced handicrafts aimed at fashionable young people. I see that this doll you made is delicate and cute, and if it can be sold in my store, the prospect must be good. ”
Zhou Xiaoyun thought for a while before replying: "It takes me about a day and a half to make a pair of such dolls, and I can't do anything else in this day and a half, and I definitely don't have time to be busy with such things for a long time." I still have to go to school, I have to do housework for my mother when I come home, and I want to practice calligraphy and accordion when I have time! ”
In fact, the real reason is that she was a skilled female worker in a toy factory in her previous life, no matter how good her craftsmanship is, she is not a laborer who works for others and gets a salary of more than 1,000 yuan a month? In this life, she doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past, and she doesn't want to do it once or twice once in a while, but she doesn't want to do it for a long time.
Or study seriously, and when she grows up, she will take the route of a young woman with a diploma, which is more attractive to her.
Dai Shuping was not in a hurry at all when she was rejected, and proposed better conditions to attract her: "You don't need to do a lot, just make two or three pairs for me a week, the price is negotiable." I can give you five bucks a pair! ”
This price is really attractive, Zhou Xiaoyun woke up from the colorful banknotes and shook his head with difficulty.
Dai Shuping's disappointed face made Zhou Xiaoyun unbearable, how can she say that she is also Fang Wenchao's sister-in-law, don't blame Fang Wenchao again, isn't it beautiful?
Zhou Xiaoyun proposed a compromise plan: "That's it, I can teach you to do it, and when you learn to make dolls and sell them yourself." ”
"Really?" Dai Shuping was overjoyed, and then hesitated again: "However, I am also very busy buying and visiting the store all day, so I may not have time to do ......."
Dai Shuqi interjected at this time: "Sister, why don't I help you!" This doll is just for sale, and it is not a necessity of life, just sell as much as you want. ”
This proposal won Dai Shuping's heart, and she agreed to come back to study this Sunday, and the sisters hurried back to the city.
Zhou Xiaoyun couldn't help but admire Dai Shuping, a woman, look at this shrewdness, and she will make a fortune in the future.
A few years later, Dai Shuping, who became famous with her handmade exquisite dolls, asked Zhou Xiaoyun if he regretted letting go of the opportunity to make a fortune that day, and Zhou Xiaoyun smiled and said that he would never regret it.
Who can understand Zhou Xiaoyun's complex psychology and stay away from this doll who loves and hates?
On Sunday, Dai Shuqi and Dai Shuping really came as promised, and Fang Wenchao naturally became the messenger of the flowers. The location was originally set in Fang Wenchao's dormitory, but the place was too small, and there were too many people to wait for the panic of grievances.
Zhou Xiaoyun proposed to go to his house, but Fang Wenchao hesitated: "Will it be too disturbing......
Zhou Xiaoyun hurriedly took over the conversation: "Teacher Fang, you must not be polite, just come to my house to play!" My parents went to the vegetable market to sell pork, and there are only a few brothers and sisters at home, so I'm afraid you won't get used to it at our house! ”
Speaking of this, the excuse was too hypocritical, and a few people walked for ten minutes to Zhou Xiaoyun's house.
Dabao took Xiaobao to play in the yard, and they all knew Fang Wenchao and honestly shouted, "Hello Teacher Fang," Erya followed him to the vegetable market and was not at home, so he arrived at Zhou Xiaoyun's house.
When Fang Wenchao came for the first time, he looked at Zhou Xiaoyun's boudoir and praised it, especially a few pots of wildflowers on the windowsill. praised Zhou Xiaoyun's creativity of using porcelain bowls to make small flower pots.
Zhou Xiaoyun saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart, thinking that Fang Wenchao would have to send two pots when he left.
Dai Shuping's manual work is very good, after Zhou Xiaoyun's explanation and demonstration, he can basically understand, and the rest is mainly practical problems. The two sisters sat on a stool and chatted while making dolls, and praised Zhou Xiaoyun during their conversation.
Zhou Xiaoyun has always been powerless to resist praise, and said to Fang Wenchao: "Teacher Fang, you sit here, I'll cook." Then he ran out.
