Yang Qing slapped his forehead and said, "You are right, this cannot be done."

She didn't want to offend a group for her cousin.

Yi Chichi chuckled, "You speak as if you are willing to do it, you can succeed."

Temporary workers in the canteen are also the dream jobs of sisters-in-law. Although the salary is low, it is within the army and they can go home to see their children.

For sisters-in-law who are unemployed but have heavy family responsibilities, they can more or less contribute to the family income.

Therefore, once a temporary canteen worker position is available, there will be a terrifying number of sisters-in-law rushing to sign up.

Yang Qing also knew this truth. She said helplessly, "You are good in every way, except that you have a big mouth."

This means that he thinks she speaks too directly.

Yi Chichi spread his hands and said, "I am like this. If you have the guts, break up with me."

Her tone was so rude that Yang Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "No, I'm still willing to be your friend."

Thinking that she hadn't seen Qin Jiu since she came in, she wondered, "Where's Xiao Jiu?"

"Go take a shower."

The distance between Beijing and Guangzhou is not short. Qin Chaoyang and his colleagues travel by train when they are on official business unless it is a special mission. The journey of more than 2,000 kilometers is enough for him to get stale food on the train.

You can't do it without taking a shower and changing clothes.

Yang Qing nodded, "Going back directly tomorrow morning?"

"Go to the Friendship Store and come back."

Yang Qing's face lit up, "Can I go?"

"Together."

She reached out her hand to take out her pocket to count the money, but then she remembered that she didn't have a foreign exchange coupon. She was immediately disappointed and said, "I can't buy anything without a foreign exchange coupon."

Happy for nothing.

Yi Chichi didn't feel comfortable saying directly that she could get the foreign exchange coupons. Besides, with her as an insider leading the way, people could go directly to the warehouse to buy them without the foreign exchange coupons.

So I suggested, "How about this, tell me tomorrow what you like and I'll buy it for you, but you have to pay me 20% of the selling price as the difference in foreign exchange coupons."

"it is good."

Yang Qing agreed immediately, "Let's see tomorrow, and I'll tell you when it's done."

"Row."

So, this topic ends here.

At night, Yang Qing tossed and turned in bed, thinking about what she wanted to buy at the Friendship Store.

But when she arrived at the Friendship Store the next day, she realized that her sleepless night was purely self-inflicted.

Although she could still afford the things in the department store, the things she liked in the Friendship Store told her that she was not worthy of them.

This is no longer a matter of foreign exchange coupons, but her family cannot afford such high consumption.

So, in the end, she only bought half a pound of White Rabbit chocolate without any tickets.

And two boxes of Merlin luncheon meat that also do not require tickets, which are said to be deflated.

The White Rabbit is for the baby to eat sweet food, and the luncheon meat is saved for when Mr. Huang comes home to improve his taste.

Her husband, Mr. Huang, has never eaten this kind of canned meat.

Compared to her who only bought two things, Yi Chichi bought a lot, following the list given by Wen Mu Nian. After buying, she asked Qin Jiu what he needed and bought him a lot.

Qin Jiu has money and tickets.

There are foreign exchange coupons and other national tickets.

However, Yi Chi didn't let him spend any money. The only things he paid for were the toys and some exquisite picture books he bought for Wen Yi.

I can't refuse my brother's kindness.

If nothing unexpected happens, her child will only have Qin Jiu as a brother.

Feelings still need to be cultivated.

Everyone in the Friendship Store was an acquaintance. After buying the things, she wanted to take her people away, but was stopped by Gu Xinghua who was prepared.

"Why are you walking? Do some work first."

Yi Chi Chi's mouth twitched, "Uncle, look at me, I have a family to support, can we come back another day to capture my men?"

"No, I need the picture urgently."

Gu Xinghua said like a cold-blooded dictator, "You have to give me at least five crocheted pictures." "Five is not a lot, but I can't produce a final draft in such a short time."

I thought Gu Xinghua would give up after hearing this, but he immediately said -

"You can go home and draw it and send it to me."

The island is not far from Guangzhou. It will take about four or five days to arrive via the post office. He can afford to wait this time.

Yi Chichi realized that her uncle Gu was waiting for her here.

That's fine. It's better to go home and paint than to waste a day here.

"Tell me what you want."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Xinghua knew that the matter was settled.

After he explained the client's needs to Yi Chichi in detail, he gave a deadline, "I will start work in half a month. You need to send the drawings before then. Is that a problem?"

"Have."

"what is the problem?"

"The price of the picture has not been discussed yet."

"same as usual."

This means according to the original price.

Yi Chichi didn't feel dissatisfied at all. The market hasn't been fully opened yet, so it's not appropriate to raise the price.

It won’t be too late to talk about price increases once the market is fully opened up.

Anyway, her uncle Ning and uncle Gu have never treated her badly in the past few years.

"Okay, I'll draw it when I get back, and I'll make sure I get the drawing before you start working on your side."

"Ah."

Gu Xinghua was satisfied with her answer, but still gave her a few words of advice, "Paint as many paintings as you can. The more varieties you have, the more choices customers can have, and the more foreign exchange we can earn."

"no problem."

As long as she feels the feeling, having a few more pictures doesn't matter to her.

After the business was settled, Gu Xinghua left with satisfaction.

Yi Chichi also led his people out through the employee door and met Master Lu on the way. Master Lu was an embroiderer who had been recruited by Friendship Store only two years ago and was good at Hangzhou embroidery.

I have communicated with Yi Chichi several times and we have learned from each other, and our relationship is pretty good.

Seeing her, Master Lu smiled and said, "When will you bring the baby to us?"

"Wait until he can talk and walk."

It’s too small now and inconvenient to carry.

She replied with a smile, exchanged a few more words with Master Lu, and then sent the man away.

Worried about having to exchange pleasantries with acquaintances again, she urged everyone to leave quickly.

I didn't relax until we were some distance away from the Friendship Store.

"You can walk slowly now."

Yang Qing laughed, "Why do I feel like you look at your co-workers as if they were a flood or a beast?"

Yi Chichi sighed, "It's not just my feeling, they are really a scourge to me."

Every time she came to the Friendship Store, she couldn't expect to have some quiet time. She was either drawing or being pulled into the embroidery room to communicate with everyone.

She would have been happy to do that before, but not now.

She was anxious to go back and see her baby. If she hadn't seen him for a day and a night, she didn't know how her little baby would cry if he didn't see his mother.

At this moment, she finally realized how deep the bond between mother and child is.

"I think one by one, let's go back quickly."

Yang Qing also missed his child, so he pulled Yu Ting and hurried over when he heard the sound.

Qin Jiu did not need to be pulled. The young boy had grown a lot in height and inherited the tall genes of the Qin family. He was tall, had long legs and was quite strong. He could carry his own luggage and most of the items purchased by Yi Chichi without affecting his brisk walking.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, a group of four people who caught the last ferry stood firmly on the ground at the pier.

"Let's go home."

She pulled someone to run away. Yang Qing thought of her bicycle and was about to say "I'll go get the bicycle first", but then she remembered that the storage place was closed at this time, so she could only wait until tomorrow. (End of this chapter)
