Side Story I: Brother Zhou's Love Two or Three Things
Senior Brother Zhou has been thinking about what kind of gift to give Ding Wei to thank the matchmaker.
Although he and Xuemei are not married yet, Senior Brother Zhou feels that it will happen sooner or later, so he must apologize as soon as possible to show his sincerity.
So he took a rare vacation and came to Zhou Xuemei to discuss it.
Zhou Xuemei did not plan to go to graduate school and has now graduated.
There were no very relevant jobs in the Chinese Department. Although a Ming University degree was a bonus, she thought about it and decided to continue her career.
——Then contracted the business of student dormitories.
Thanks to her programmer boyfriend and the development of smartphone applications, although she has left school now, she also has a new business model.
Although I have graduated and cannot freely enter and leave the dormitory, my dormitory aunt can!
The dormitory aunt used to sell some snacks here and there, but because it was too troublesome, she didn't pay much attention to it, so it didn't become a big business.
After all, doing business is just to earn pocket money, including this job, which is not lacking in daily life.
When Zhou Xuemei came to discuss it with her, she was still reluctant.
"I'm impatient when it comes to doing business. It's troublesome to have a pack of paper and a pack of chewing gum every day."
"You can go find the students in this building. As long as you agree with me, I won't care."
Students change batches every four years, so how can they have the stability of a dormitory aunt?
Zhou Xuemei knew what her aunt was worried about, so she quickly said:
"Auntie, you definitely don't have to worry about these."
"We will post a small program code for each dormitory. Students can use the mobile phone program code to place orders, and each order corresponds to a pickup code."
"We will pack the things you want. When your classmates come, you just give them to her according to the number. If there is a problem with the things, whether they are too much or too little or broken, we will be responsible for it."
Auntie the dormitory manager: Is it still so convenient?
She was a little puzzled:
"I can do this, but...some students like to be sent to the dormitory and don't like to take these two steps, so I won't send them to them."
Zhou Xuemei waved her hands repeatedly:
"Auntie, you don't need to deliver. I'm only responsible for this part of the business. I don't care who else in the dormitory can deliver to the upper bunk. We can't leave no chance to others, can we?"
Moreover--
Zhou Xuemei has gained a lot of experience in doing business in the past few years.
In fact, college students are not that lazy. In addition, there are basically classes every day, so walking is inevitable when going back and forth.
And there are quite a number of people who sometimes just want to buy a pack of tissue paper. At that time, Zhou Xuemei enthusiastically delivered it to their door, which made the buyers feel embarrassed. In the end, they would rather go to the supermarket to buy it by themselves.
Now I leave my things with the dormitory auntie. The distance is very close and I don’t have to leave the dormitory building. Everything is still complete. I took it with me on the way back to the dormitory...
How convenient!
In addition, you can place an order silently on your mobile phone if you want anything, and support cash on delivery and online payment...
The warehouse is right at the back door of the school. She thinks this business can be done!
Perfect.
…
No, since she conceived this process, Zhou Xuemei has been going back and forth on this matter for other students to take the public postgraduate entrance examination interview unit during the graduation season, and she has accidentally lost several kilograms!
Now if I look carefully, I can see that she looks like a slim beauty even if she dresses up a little.
She finally made clear arrangements for the procedures in the dormitory. Before the arrangements were made in the warehouse, her boyfriend called:
"Xuemei Xuemei, do you have time? Let's go on a date."
Zhou Xuemei turned around and wanted to refuse.
But then I thought about it, Zhou Bo is also planning to start a business now, and he may be even busier in the future. However, the basic stall on his side has been laid out anyway, and the next step is nothing more than a matter of expansion and improvement——
Okay, let’s go on a date!
The two met at the restaurant they usually went to. After a sticky meal, Senior Brother Zhou regained his cuteness and hesitated:
"Xuemei, it's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival. Let me buy you a bag."
Zhou Xuemei looked at him speechless.
"Do you know you are sick?"
"How long until the Mid-Autumn Festival? Have you forgotten it?"
"Every day there is nothing else in my mind except bags..."
This guy is really a rich person who doesn't know how sad it is to have no money. She runs a warehouse and is very poor at stocking up.
When facing his girlfriend, Brother Zhou reflected on himself very skillfully and deeply:
"You're right. Buying bags all the time seems too vain. Let's go look at jewelry. Can I buy you a gold necklace?"
Zhou Xuemei:……
I don’t know who this guy’s ex-girlfriend is, and why is she so awesome?
She sighed helplessly: "Didn't you say you were going to buy a matchmaking gift for Weiwei today?"
…
Since falling in love with Zhou Bo, Zhou Xuemei found that all her romantic qualities had disappeared.
Other emotions such as shyness and embarrassment have disappeared from her life.
For example, when she heard the words "Thank you for the matchmaking gift" now, she was not surprised at all.
hehe.
Don't ask, asking means you are being tortured by a boyfriend with bubbles on his head.
Senior Brother Zhou reacted: "Yes, I want to buy a gift."
"But this doesn't affect Xuemei's choice of a gold necklace, right?"
Zhou Xuemei:……
OK.
She had to go through it reluctantly - according to Zhou Bo's character, who didn't want to spend money and was uncomfortable with Sky, if she didn't want it today, the gift would really turn into a shock the next day.
Zhou Xuemei is already quite skilled at this - she goes into the mall and goes straight to the counter, picks out the cheapest one, and that's it.
The two of them sat in front of the counter, and the salesperson quickly greeted them with a smile.
The price of gold in 2008 was not that high, but it had already risen. Zhou Xuemei picked the thinnest chain to try on, and the salesperson was trying hard to persuade her to pick another good-looking gold pendant.
Zhou Xuemei shook her head:
"No, I just want a gold chain."
It was summer now and she wore very few clothes. She had seen Ding Wei wearing a thin necklace, which she said was a clavicle chain.
The short circle is just right around the neck, making the neck look thin and white, not to mention more elegant.
Zhou Xuemei thinks that although she is not as good-looking as Ding Wei, she can always learn how to dress up.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Zhou Xuemei smiled confidently——
Her collarbone is also very beautiful.
And at this moment, another big face appeared in the small mirror:
"Xuemei, I think your chain is too thin. I'd like to change it to a thicker one with a big peony underneath. It'll look really nice and match you."
Zhou Xuemei:……
She doesn't deserve it.
And Zhou Bo was happily showing her the gift he wanted to give to Ding Wei——
A thick gold bracelet!
A very thick one!
I looked at the tag and found it was over 30 grams.
Zhou Xuemei didn't care about money - but she swore to God, Ding Wei would never like such a thing!
She remembered that she met recently and saw a thin diamond-encrusted bracelet on his wrist, so she quickly pushed the box over and picked out another thin bracelet with a plain ring of less than 50 grams:
"I think Weiwei will like this better."
At this moment, a girl came over from the other side of the counter, with a weak and unbelievable expression:
"Zhou Bo, do your current girlfriends like such vulgar things?"
