"Isn't there enough money? If not, I will lend you some."
Seeing that he was about to go out, Chen Jingjing quickly stopped him and said unnaturally: "Actually, it's not that hot. I decided not to buy this fan. If I save more money, I'll buy another big one."
"What big thing?"
"I want to buy a sewing machine. Then I will stop selling mung bean cakes and switch to selling clothes."
"Selling mung bean cakes is very good. The cost is low and the profits are high. Why don't you want to do it? Besides, can you make clothes?" Li Hongyuan expressed his doubts.
Can someone like her who does almost nothing in her hometown wear the clothes she makes?
"You'll know when the time comes. Anyway, I don't need your money to buy it. I keep your money separately and basically use it for household expenses. I will figure out a way for the sewing machine myself." It's the same as the bicycle.
Chen Jingjing heard his disapproval, but still insisted on his own ideas.
She just informed him.
"It's not about money. You're not good at making clothes at all. It's better not to take risks." Li Hongyuan didn't understand why she was so insistent.
"I'm back." Li Hongyuan took the initiative to greet him.
"That's good."
Xiao Ding thought about it and quoted the price: "Sister-in-law, do you think one hundred and two is okay?"
Half an hour later.
"Brother Hongyuan, sister-in-law." The boy who was called Xiaoding grinned.
Going to work step by step every day and getting a dead salary of tens of dollars every month, in her eyes, is a waste of good years and youth.
Chen Jingjing was a little angry: "I know whether I'm good at it or not, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Okay, let's do it this weekend. Let's go and see it together when we have time." She smiled.
Chen Jingjing frowned. The new one costs 180. This second-hand one is not old at all. It would be too much of a bargain to get it for 120.
After saying that, he went back to the house.
"Doctor Li, there is an emergency patient right now. Come and take a look quickly." A nurse opened the door and shouted anxiously.
With some coaxing from the wife, she should be able to do the job.
Seeing that she was silent, Xiao Ding thought that the price he quoted was too high, so he immediately let go: "Sister-in-law, if you think the price is not suitable, we can discuss it again. My relationship with Brother Hongyuan is here, and I will not charge you more.
It doesn’t matter if it’s less.”
After washing my face, I felt a little relieved.
When I opened the door, I saw Chen Jingjing coming out of the kitchen carrying a plate of dishes.
Xiao Ding explained: "My wife has gone back to her parents' home. It's not the weekend. The children finally have a day off."
Li Hongyuan wanted to speak, but Chen Anjing stopped him by saying, "I'm full."
"Okay, I'll make an appointment with my colleagues this afternoon."
"My wife's family asked for this sewing machine when we got married. My wife doesn't know how to use it. It takes up space if she keeps it. If my sister-in-law wants it, just take it away." Xiao Ding looked at Chen Jingjing.
Half an hour of high-intensity surgery made him a little tired. When he touched his head, he was sweating profusely as expected.
Li Hongyuan immediately stood up and followed him: "Tell me about the patient's condition."
On the way to get off work at noon, he made up his mind that he must take the initiative to speak during the meal to break this awkward situation between the two of them.
Chen Jingjing looked up from the bowl. Has this man changed his gender?
As a man, he should take the initiative.
It is extremely ungraceful behavior to argue with a woman.
The two of them came to an old residential complex carrying fruits.
"here I am."
The working day passes quickly.
"Let's take a look at the sewing machine." Li Hongyuan said and walked into the house. He looked around and saw no one else: "You are the only one at home?"
"It's okay, pretty much the same as usual."
"I asked my colleague. He has a sewing machine at home. He bought it when he got married and has been keeping it idle for a while. If you don't mind, let's go take a look at it sometime. The price is negotiable and it will definitely be much cheaper than a new one.
"
For several days, no one spoke during dinner.
"Xiao Ding, are you at home?" Li Hong knocked on the door.
Chen Anjing walked over and checked it out. It was 95% new and had indeed not been used much.
She didn't want to live like this, and she had enough work where she went to work on time every day.
Chen Anjing bought some fruits on the street after selling mung bean cake on Friday and saved them for the afternoon.
People should do things they are good at, rather than keep trying things they are not sure about.
Now she wants to do it herself.
Chen Jingjing waved his hand: "Xiao Ding, you misunderstood. You don't have to look at your relationship with Hongyuan. You can get as much as you want. We can't let you lose, right? We can accept this price, mainly because we are afraid that you are not suitable."
There was a moment of silence.
Of course he didn't say the next sentence.
He asked several colleagues before finding one that was idle.
"What about this sewing machine?"
This man pursues stability too much and thinks that an unchanging life is happiness.
Chen Anjing followed behind.
His wife asked him to say 140. This sewing machine looks good, but it is a second-hand one after all. It is inappropriate to charge so much from someone.
"Well, I've thought about the sewing machine. If you want to do it, just do it." If it doesn't work, just sell the sewing machine again.
Chen Jingjing also has no ink.
He quite disagreed with this matter that day.
Li Hongyuan in the living room sighed before going back to his room.
Xiao Ding knew what Brother Hongyuan meant and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my wife knows that I can make the decision. Come over and see how this sewing machine looks like."
Chen Anjing was obviously stunned for a moment and smiled: "Wash your hands and eat."
Xiao Ding said so, so she took out one hundred and twenty yuan and handed it over.
"This sewing machine is really good. Xiao Ding, tell me the price. If it's suitable, I'll take it."
"How are the sales of mung bean cakes today?" Li Hongyuan was at a loss for words.
As a young voice fell, the door was opened, and a face full of youth was revealed.
"The patient is out of danger. Fortunately, you arrived in time. If it had been five minutes later, he would have suffered a gastric perforation." Li Hongyuan explained to the patient's family in fear after a while.
Both of them were holding their breath because of this incident.
This is the thinking of the older generation, and it is the same mentality as that of people in the 21st century who are desperately trying to get into the workforce.
Xiao Ding felt relieved: "It's suitable. I have no problem with it. As long as sister-in-law agrees, I can send this sewing machine back to you right away."
On the way back, Chen Anjing sat on the back seat of the bicycle.
He crossed his legs and asked: "Xiao Ding has made a loss in this business. You should take more care of others at work in the future. He must be asking for such a low price because of your face. We can't be sad."
number."
"I know, Xiao Ding is a good person. He has been following me since his internship. Next time I cook something delicious and send it to him." Li Hongyuan said, looking at the road ahead.
Chen Jingjing rolled her eyes behind him.
What she said about taking care of people more was not asking him to give them delicious food.
