Chapter 251
Gu Jiu returned home with his wife and children. Before going upstairs, he passed by a noodle restaurant and saw his second brother Lin Guang chatting with someone inside, so he went in.
I found that my eldest brother Lin Wei was also here, "Brother, why are you here today?"
Lin Wei raised his head and saw that Gu Jiu's family and Lin Dongfa had all returned. "Oh, you're back. Come sit down and have a cup of tea together."
It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon and the noodle shop was closing time. There were not many people in the shop except for a middle-aged woman who was drinking tea and the girl sitting next to her.
The store is closed now and the lights are off, so the light is not very bright. In addition, the girl is sitting with her back to the door. In the dim light, you can vaguely see that she has a pretty face, especially her shiny black hair, which is the most eye-catching.
Lin Guang and Lu Yinhua placed the teacups and poured them a cup of hot tea.
After everyone sat down, Lin Wei introduced two female comrades to them. "This is Sister Duan who lives in the staff quarters of the Health Bureau. The girl next to her is her daughter Lan Ting. She is nineteen this year. She graduated from high school last year and is preparing to take the examination for the textile factory in July this year."
Lin Shu listened to the familiar words and looked at the shy girl carefully.
After introducing their situation, Lin Wei enthusiastically introduced Gu Jiu and the others to Sister Duan and the others.
In particular, she introduced Lin Dongfa: "This is my son. Sister Duan can just call him Dongfa. He is just 20 years old this year. Now he helps my brother-in-law manage all the businesses."
"He is young and promising. He manages several stores at a young age. He has good abilities and is very handsome."
At this moment, Sister Duan was looking at the handsome Lin Dongfa, and she felt emotional. Although the Lin family climbed up from the countryside, at least their appearance was impeccable.
"Dongfa, quickly pour tea for your Aunt Duan and Sister Lanting." Lin Wei winked at Lin Dongfa, signaling him to be smarter.
Lin Dongfa had a bad feeling, but since there were outsiders present, he could not ask too many questions. He could only bite the bullet and pick up the teapot to pour the tea.
Lin Shu and Gu Jiu looked at each other and saw the understanding in each other's eyes.
When young people reach a certain age, the program their elders like to arrange the most is blind dates.
If it is a blind date, there are too many people and it is not suitable for young people to communicate and get to know each other.
In addition, he had been outside for several hours in the afternoon, so at this moment, Lin Shu just wanted to go back and have a good rest.
Dabao was hungry after following them around for a few hours, so it was time to go back and make some milk.
Lin Shu drank the tea in the cup at just the right temperature and said, "Big brother, second brother, big sister Duan, you guys chat slowly. Dabao is hungry, let's go back and make him some milk. Let's all go to my house for dinner tonight. I'll ask the nanny to prepare some food in advance."
Sister Duan smiled and stood up, waving her hand and saying, "Don't bother, you go back and take care of the kids first, we'll sit for a while and then go back, the whole family can't do without me cooking."
Lin Shu continued to invite enthusiastically: "We're just going to have a simple meal at home, how about inviting everyone at home to come together?"
"His aunt, it's too much trouble. Forget it if there is nothing to prepare today. We can get together again when there is a chance. There is no need to rush."
When they met for the first time, Sister Duan was the woman, and no matter how good she was, she would never bring her whole family to someone else's house for dinner.
When young people get to know each other in the future, there will be plenty of opportunities to get together for dinner.
Take your time.
Lin Shu was polite to everyone, and when he didn't see Dongfa's look of seeking help, he and Gu Jiu, who was holding Dabao, left without any reluctance.
After leaving the noodle shop, Lin Shu asked Gu Jiu with a gossipy look on his face: "Do you know this Miss Duan?"
Gu Jiu shook his head: "I don't know him."
"I didn't expect that my brother and his friends have met so many people in the provincial capital not long after arriving there, and now they are introducing girls from the provincial capital to Dongfa."
"Isn't this a good thing? I see that Miss Duan has clear eyes and doesn't seem like a difficult person. Her in-laws are sensible and easy to get along with, so the marriage is almost halfway done. If Dongfa and the girl have compatible personalities and similar interests, this marriage is basically a good match for Duan."
Lin Shu glanced at him and said, "I didn't expect you to be an emotional expert now."
Gu Jiu hurriedly said with a flattering smile: "I am just speaking from my own experience. You see, you and I have similar personalities. The relatives of our two families are not unreasonable. Don't we all feel at ease getting along with each other?"
Neither family is a burden, and there will be fewer conflicts between couples in such a marriage.
With fewer conflicts, marriage life will definitely be happy.
Ever since Lin Shu learned about Dongfa's blind date, she has been paying attention to the follow-up of Dongfa's blind date for some time.
That day, Dongfa came to her with the decoration drawings. After he reported the situation, Lin Shu asked, "How are you getting along with Comrade Lan Ting? Have you asked her out to see a movie or something?"
When asked about marriage, Lin Dongfa looked out the window awkwardly, then looked around the room to make sure there was no one else. Then he whispered, "We're getting along OK. As for going to the movies, I've been very busy lately and haven't had time yet."
Seeing him so innocent that even his ears turned red, Lin Shu couldn't help laughing: "Do you know what it means to have both work and love? You don't have to watch over the store decoration all day long. You can just arrange for your subordinates to do anything for the trading company. You should be able to squeeze out time for a date, right?"
At this moment, listening to Lin Shu's laughter, it was like a warming agent, and Lin Dongfa felt his face getting hot.
He stood up hurriedly and said, "Well, aunt, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. If you have anything, you can call me at the trading company."
Lin Dongfa fled in panic.
Before Lin Shu's smile faded, Dabao crawled out of the toy room and said, "Mom, I need to poop."
Lin Shu: "..."
***
The production capacity of the First Garment Factory should not be underestimated.
It only took half a month to produce Lin Shu's order.
Gu Nuan took her to the warehouse where the finished products were stored and pointed to a pile of cartons in the corner. "Your order of more than 2,000 pieces is all here. How is the decoration of your store over there?"
Lin Shu took out a few samples and checked the quality. The stitching was very dense, there was no skipped stitches, and the thread ends were also cut cleanly.
"It's almost done. In order to catch up with the progress, Dongfa has been so busy that he didn't even have time for an appointment. He told me yesterday that it would take about three days for the store to stock the goods."
Gu Nuan is very concerned about her sister-in-law, who is also her important client.
"There are only five styles now. Will the store have too few styles?"
"It's OK. If there are not many styles, just restock them. Each style has two or three colors. At most, you can just put up a few more of each color."
When it comes to styles, Lin Shu is not worried at all. These styles are good-looking, and restocking them can also attract passers-by to come in.
Although Gu Nuan was still worried, since Lin Shu looked so confident, she didn't say anything.
Lin Shu took out a stack of drawings from her bag and said, "Sister, the new fabrics were delivered yesterday. There are more than 200 pieces in total, and there are only these few styles. Please arrange for the workshop to start production tomorrow."
"As many products as you produce are sent to my warehouse. Our store is waiting for the new models to arrive."
