Shen Jingyue went to find her an outfit that fit her size.

The older woman took the pants back into the fitting room, and when she came out again, she saw the complete outfit.

The eldest sister really thought it looked great, and although she was initially hesitant, she immediately made the decision.

Buy it! It's just a pair of bell-bottoms, but this outfit looks much better together.

She didn't even change; she just wore it and walked around in it.

Shen Jingyue smiled and took out her own clothes, then wrapped them in a bag.

I paid her bill: the clothes were 15 yuan, the pants were 20 yuan, and the scarf was a free gift, totaling 35 yuan.

But the woman seemed quite happy when she took out her money; after paying, she cheerfully picked up her bag and left.

Shen Jingyue breathed a slight sigh of relief and went to attend to the guest from before.

The customer was trying on other clothes. After she finished, she bought two sets and a silk scarf. The silk scarf looked really good with the top. Shen Jingyue had promised her that she would give her a pair of socks when she paid the bill.

She paid readily; the two outfits and one scarf cost her just over eighty yuan in total.

After seeing the two people off, Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mom, thank goodness you're back, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."

He had always helped with collecting money and keeping accounts at the counter, and this was the first time he had encountered something like this.

He was extremely nervous at the time.

"It's okay. If you encounter something like this again, just talk to them nicely. At worst, you can give them a small gift. Someone will always back down eventually."

Shen Jingyue knew that Xiao Chen must have been frightened just now.

No matter how sensible he is, he is still just a twelve-year-old child.

"You can stay home and rest in a few days; you don't need to come."

"Mom, it's okay, I can come and help. There's still more than two weeks until school starts."

"You don't need to stay in the shop all the time. Mom will put up a job posting at the door later. Your second aunt will come to work here. Once we hire someone, we'll have enough staff."

"Just stay home and rest. Read some books and hang out with your friends when you have free time."

It's really been hard on him to help out at the store these past few days.

"Alright then." Seeing that her mother had made all the arrangements, Xiao Chen didn't say anything more.

Shen Jingyue took out a large sheet of red paper.

A job posting was made.

This red paper was left over from when we opened the business. We'll use this to write on it and stick it on the door so that everyone passing by can see it.

There are a lot of people looking for jobs right now, and Shen Jingyue's job posting had only been on the door for two days.

Several people came over and asked.

Shen Jingyue asked them some basic questions and then kept the three of them.

The monthly salary is 40 yuan plus commission; you get 10 cents commission for every piece of clothing sold.

Of course, small items like socks and scarves don't count; only clothes do.

Hearing that there was such a high salary plus commission, the few who stayed were overjoyed.

I made up my mind to stay and work hard; such a good job is hard to find.

Shen Jingyue led them for two days, and then Xie Yushu arrived.

Xie Yushu didn't know anything about the store, so Shen Jingyue helped her second sister get familiar with it. Once they were all familiar with it, Shen Jingyue could delegate authority, which would make things much easier for her.

That day, Shen Jingyue returned home early and received a phone call as soon as she got home.

It was a call from Song Yiran, the husband of Shen Jingyue's younger sister, Shen Jinglan.

Back then, Shen Jingyue came to Beijing with Qin Xiang'an, while Shen Jinglan stayed in the Northwest to continue being an educated youth.

When she left, she noticed that she was getting very close to Song Yiran, a male educated youth from their settlement.

A few months after she arrived in Beijing, she received a letter from her saying that she and Song Yiran were together.

Later, they even managed to secure places at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, and the two of them went to university in Shanghai together.

After graduation, the two got married and stayed in Shanghai to work.

She gave birth to a daughter a year after getting married.

This time, Song Yiran called because Jinglan had given birth again, this time to a son.

Song Yiran made a special call to inform Shen Jingyue.

Shen Jingyue was overjoyed to hear this and said she would visit Xiaolan when she had time and tell her to take good care of herself.

Song Yiran naturally agreed repeatedly.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Jingyue happily went to the kitchen to cook.

When Xiao Yu and his friends came back from school, they saw their mother cooking in the kitchen and humming a song. She seemed to be in a good mood.

Xiao Yu wanted to see what delicious food her mother had made today, so she went to the kitchen doorway and saw her mother's happy face.

"Mom, what's the good news today? You seem so happy."

"Your aunt gave birth to a baby boy, of course I'm happy."

Noticing the mud on her clothes, her expression changed, and she frowned, saying, "Where did you run off to when you came back? Your clothes are so dirty again!"

Xiao Yu felt a little guilty. "Well, I just accidentally tripped and fell. I'll go change my clothes."

After saying that, she quickly ran back to her room to change her clothes.

Shen Jingyue shook her head and continued cooking.

Xiao Yu had just entered the room and was about to find some clothes to change when she heard the door being pushed open.

Xiao Yu was startled and turned around to see her older brother walking in.

She breathed a sigh of relief; she was terrified, thinking it was her mother.

"Brother, what are you doing? You were so quiet, you scared me to death."

"If you haven't done anything wrong, what are you afraid of? Or have you done something bad?"

Xiao Yu's eyes darted away, and she said stubbornly, "Brother, don't talk nonsense. I, I haven't done anything wrong."

"Really? Then how did you get so dirty? Don't tell me you fell down." Xiao Chen said sternly, looking at Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu was quite afraid of her own brother looking at her with such a stern face.

It's kind of creepy.

"I fell down, bro. What are you trying to say? If it's nothing, just get out of here. I need to change my clothes."

"If you don't tell the truth, I'm going to call Mom over."

Xiao Chen saw right through her lie.

Xiao Yu was quite afraid of her brother, so upon seeing this, she obediently confessed.

It wasn't anything serious, just that I secretly got into a fight with someone at school.

Xiao Chen's face darkened after hearing this.

"Xiao Yu, you've really gotten some skills now, you can even fight people."

Xiao Yu retorted, "Brother, it's their fault for saying such nasty things. So what if I hit them?"

"With your abilities, if those people are even stronger than you, you'll be in serious trouble."

"What will you do if your parents find out?"

Xiao Yu lowered her head and didn't say anything.

Xiao Chen noticed how dirty she was and asked, "Are you hurt?"

Xiao Yu shook her head. "No."

It's just that my clothes got dirty. Even if there's an injury, it's just a minor scratch, nothing serious.

"Change your clothes right now, and don't do this again. If there's anything wrong, you can tell me directly."

"understood."
