The voluptuous and beautiful nanny, Technician Shen fell for her.
Chapter 228 Good News for Li Lianhua
10:00 AM.
The clothing customization center in front has already opened.
Seven sewing machines were making a "clack-clack-clack" sound.
Su Nianhe was wearing a thick, light red sweater, her hair pinned up with a wooden hairpin, and she sat behind the counter checking the account books.
The glass door was pushed open from the outside, bringing in a gust of cold air.
Li Lianhua was also carrying a net bag containing several kilograms of oranges.
"Nianhe!" Li Lianhua strode in with a loud voice, placed the oranges on the glass counter, and her eyes shone with an astonishing light.
Su Nianhe put down her pencil, came out to greet her, and took her hand.
"Why are you running so fast? Come and sit down." Su Nianhe pulled her to the side of the tin stove.
Li Lianhua took off her scarf, rubbed her hands together, and couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.
"Nianhe, I've come to bring good news." Li Lianhua grasped Su Nianhe's hand, leaned closer, and lowered her voice, "Tiejun has won over his mother! The date is set, in a few months, on the eighth day of the first lunar month!"
Upon hearing this, Su Nianhe's almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents, and she was overjoyed for her sister.
"Really? Aunt Li agreed?"
When Li Lianhua mentioned this, she raised her chin, exuding a triumphant air.
"How could I disagree?" Li Lianhua pulled over a bamboo rattan chair and sat down. "That old lady was being arrogant the other day, looking down on me for being a nanny from the countryside, and insisted on introducing Tie Jun to the factory director's distant niece. This time, Tie Jun stood up for himself and slammed his fist on the table at home last night."
Su Nianhe peeled an orange and handed it to him, asking, "What did Li Tiejun say?"
"He said he'd only ever have eyes for me, Li Lianhua. If his family didn't agree, he'd move out of the compound and into the factory's single dormitory. He'd give me his entire monthly salary and wouldn't send a single penny home." Li Lianhua bit into a segment of orange, the sweet juice spreading in her mouth. "He also said that if pushed too far, he'd become a bachelor. That scared the old lady so much she cried. She had someone consult the almanac overnight and set the date for the eighth day of the first lunar month, afraid that at his age he might really be so heartless and become a bachelor."
Su Nianhe was delighted to hear this.
Li Tiejun usually looks honest and simple, but when a veteran gets really stubborn, no one can stop him.
"Brother Li really cares about you." Su Nianhe wiped her hands with a towel. "The eighth day of the first lunar month, that's only a few days after the New Year. It's only a little over four months at most, is there enough time to prepare?"
"There's still time." Li Lianhua waved her hand. "Tiejun said that the 'three turns and one sound' (referring to the three turns and one sound) should all be done to the highest standards. He has saved up his salary for several years, plus the money that your Shen Huai earned with him before, which is enough to hold a decent banquet."
Li Lianhua looked at the spacious and bright clothing store, her gaze falling on Su Nianhe.
"Nianhe, I'm finally settling down in the city. Tiejun is already trying to transfer my household registration, and after we get married, I'll buy a house in the provincial capital." Li Lianhua's eyes welled up with tears as she said this.
When she left Liuhe Village, she dreamed of having a stable job in the city so she wouldn't have to go back to the countryside to farm and be at the mercy of others.
Now, she has done it all.
Su Nianhe knew the bitterness in her heart, so she reached out and hugged her.
"I knew you could do it." Su Nianhe patted her on the back. "Have you decided what to wear for your wedding?"
Li Lianhua stepped out of her embrace and rubbed her nose.
"I want to buy a red wool coat and a pair of black leather shoes."
Su Nianhe waved her hand directly, her tone full of confidence.
"Those ready-to-wear garments have rigid silhouettes, and the waistlines aren't even defined." Su Nianhe turned around and took out a catalog from the bottom drawer of the counter, flipped to a page, and pushed it in front of Li Lianhua.
"I'll make it for you myself." Su Nianhe pointed to a coat pattern in the catalog with slightly padded shoulders, a fitted waist, and an A-line hem. "This is a new design I just drew a few days ago. The fabric is the best pure red wool from the provincial capital. I'll get you gold-plated buttons."
Li Lianhua stared at the blueprint, her eyes wide with amazement.
She had looked at many of the designs Su Nianhe had drawn; this style was something you couldn't find anywhere, not even in the provincial capital, let alone Jiang City.
"How much does this cost? I heard this material costs more than ten yuan per foot." Li Lianhua was a little distressed about the money.
"It's free." Su Nianhe's miserly nature vanished completely at this moment, and she was extremely generous. "This is my dowry for you. You brought me out of Liuhe Village. Without you pulling me onto the train, I would still be suffering in the countryside. What's a piece of clothing?"
Li Lianhua's eyes were completely red.
She didn't hesitate and nodded firmly.
"Fine! Then I'll wear the dress made by our factory director Su himself when I get married, and make all those gossipy women in the compound green with envy."
As the two were talking, Zhu Yuanyuan walked in from the backyard carrying a large aluminum lunchbox, with a meat bun in her mouth.
"Who's getting married? I just heard it was the eighth day of the first lunar month from behind." Zhu Yuanyuan leaned closer.
Li Lianhua recounted the whole story.
Zhu Yuanyuan slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "Great! When Section Chief Li hosts the banquet, I'll definitely have to go and give a generous gift, and also get to eat a few more pieces of braised pork."
The three girls sat around the stove, their laughter drowning out the sound of the sewing machine.
It was just past lunchtime.
Shen Huai pushed open the door and walked in.
He was holding a brown paper document bag in his hand, and he carried the chill of the outside air with him.
Li Lianhua was very perceptive and immediately stood up.
"Tiejun is waiting for me to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy yarn, so I'll go first. Nianhe, I'll come back tomorrow to take your measurements."
Li Lianhua waved her hand and left like a gust of wind.
Shen Huai walked to the counter, placed the brown paper bag on the table, and then went around to the back of the counter to squeeze onto a long wooden bench with Su Nianhe.
He naturally wrapped his large hand around her waist and pulled her closer to him.
"The brand registration has been approved." Shen Huai opened the document bag and pulled out a certificate stamped with a large red seal.
The words "Remembering" are clearly printed on top, and below are the various terms and conditions for trademark registration.
Su Nianhe touched the paper, her fingertips trembling slightly.
"So fast?" She looked up at him.
"Secretary Zhou put in a good word, and everything went smoothly." Shen Huai didn't hide anything, mentioning his family connections. "I've also found a suitable location, in that abandoned light industrial machinery factory in the east of the city. The factory buildings are already there; they can be used after a little renovation."
He looked into Su Nianhe's eyes.
"Come with me to the provincial capital this afternoon," Shen Huai arranged the itinerary. "To see the assembly line machines. Once we've ordered them, we'll bring them straight back to Jiang City."
"Going this afternoon?" Su Nianhe was surprised by his swift and decisive action.
"Yes. The sooner we buy the machine, the sooner Boss Su can earn an extra ten thousand yuan." Shen Huai held the registration certificate and gently pinched her waist. "After all, I'm still waiting for Boss Su to give me my dividends."
