You Look Like You’re Made of Money - Chapter 38 (1)
Chapter 38 (1)
Su Yan’s illness came and went quickly, she recovered her spirit and appetite within a few days. Today, she sent Jiang Jingchuan out to work. When she returned to her bedroom, she received a call from Zhou Lu.
Zhou Lu was still as enthusiastic as before, and her voice was very energetic, “Xiao Yan, you were in too much of a hurry that day, did something happen?”
The family ugliness couldn’t be publicized, Su Yan really couldn’t tell her about it, so she smiled and replied: “Nothing too important, Jingchuan’s Company had some things that need to be dealt with urgently, what about you? how are you doing over there?”
“It’s okay. It’s been raining here for several days in a row, nothing too interesting, just like my old Xu back at home. Xiao Yan, I called you today to ask If you thought about it?” Zhou Lu had been waiting to call Su Yan. She wanted to call several times to ask but thought about it, the couple was in such a hurry, so maybe something happened. It wasn’t good to harass them with phone calls, but she really couldn’t hold it in today.
Su Yan also thought about this problem while she was sick. In fact, Zhou Lu’s proposal moved her quite a bit, not only because her embroidery would be appreciated by others, or because she could make money, but because she could better understand this era in the process of interacting with others. She knew that it was boring to stay in a room and that no matter how much theoretical knowledge she had, it was still better to go out and chat with people.
Jiang Jingchuan had already told her that he would not interfere with her decision, and sometimes Su Yan felt that she actually wanted her amateur life to be richer.
Thinking of this, Su Yan whispered, “Can you tell me about the conditions specifically?” Zhou Lu knew that Su Yan’s attitude was quite laid back, but she was happy in her heart, and quickly raised her spirits up. “The time arrangement is arbitrary, but I hope that you can stay in the studio so that we can discuss it. We have almost two months to go, although it is a little rushed, I already told the other party that the finished product won’t be a lot, but the other party said that he wants quality, not quantity, so I have prepared plenty of time for you to ensure that you won’t get tired. What do you think?”
In those two days of getting along, her fiancé told her that Jiang Jingchuan was the elite of the elite at a glance. He said that he was a big boss, and his money was clean. She felt that Su Yan wasn’t short of money at all, she just wanted to find something to play with, so she definitely could not tire out this young grandmother.
Su Yan thought about it and said, “I have to accompany my husband to breakfast and dinner every day, he goes out at about 8:30 am every day, and arrives at home before five o’clock, during this time I am free.”
“How long you stay every day you decide, I won’t interfere with your work. I have negotiated with the other party in this regard. I showed them what you embroidered and they’re pretty satisfied. They said they would give 30 to 40 Thousand RMB what do you think?” Zhou Lu now regretted that if she learned to embroider before, she could have made a lot more than her salary.
Su Yan developed a concept of money while she stayed in this era, such that a single business of thirty thousand to forty thousand was about 20 thousand per month, which was a very good treatment for ordinary people. However, she knew in her heart that this wasn’t even as expensive as the bag that Jiang Jingchuan bought for her before. But this wasn’t the point, after all, the money you earn is different.
Su Yan grasped what Zhou Lu’s words meant just now, and asked hesitantly: “Zhou Lu, is the other party a man or a woman?”
“A man, what’s wrong?” Zhou Lu knew that Su Yan didn’t care much about her salary, but she didn’t expect her to ask such a question.
Su Yan bit his lower lip, and his voice was light but firm, “Where is the handkerchief I embroidered?” Zhou Lu became more and more confused, not understanding what Su Yan was going to say.
Su Yan knows that the things she embroidered for this ceramic exhibition were just art of work. She embroidered a handkerchief last time, no matter how open the concept of people was, Su Yan felt that the handkerchief she embroidered could only be given to her husband, she would feel awkward if it fell into the hands of other men.
“Zhou Lu, can you take that handkerchief back? I’ll just give it to you.” Su Yan was afraid that Zhou Lu would think that she was being arrogant, and added in a low voice, “A handkerchief isn’t the same.”Some things have to be very separate, she wouldn’t embroider something for other men to carry on their bodies.
Zhou Lu almost laughed out loud, but calmly thought about it. Thinking that Su Yan had such concerns was normal, Zhou Lu also knew that ancient women took this thing very seriously. Although Su Yan wasn’t an ancient person, she knew embroidery, and it was pretty good, so it was understandable she had such principles, “Rest assured, I will go to him later and take the handkerchief back. I’ll thank you first, I will definitely use it myself even my old Xu will not let me touch it.”
“Zhou Lu, thank you.” Su Yan sighed in relief, although Jiang Jingchuan didn’t mind, she still felt that it would be better to stick to her principles. “It’s all right, by the way, when are you free?” I’ll take you to dinner with each other when the time comes. Zhou Lu was very concerned about this business, because of the identity of the other party, she wouldn’t just be paid well, but she might also get introduced to others.
“In a few days, I was sick a few days ago, and my husband certainly won’t let me go out to work now.” Su Yan’s words were by no means showing affection nor was it an exaggeration, Jiang Jingchuan is too concerned about her illness this time, these days in the afternoon before four o’clock to go home to accompany her, according to his degree of attention, absolutely will not allow her to go out to work at this time.
“Are you sick? Seriously? I’m in the city, do you want me to come and see you?” Zhou Lu is a senior member of the Appearance Association, so Su Yan’s face is very appealing to her, plus Su Yan was gentle, considerate, and soft. Don’t poke Zhou Lu’s preferences too much, her concern for Su Yan is sincere.
“No, it’s almost good now. You must be very busy lately, don’t bother coming to see me, we’ll see each other in a few days.”
Zhou Lu listened to these words and sighed, “Xiao Yan, if only I were a man.”
It was a sad thing to meet a girl who suited her tastes so much because she wasn’t very pretty. Su Yan was stunned at first and soon understood what Zhou Lu meant and giggle silently. The two talked on the phone for a while more and made an appointment to meet again in a few days.
After Zhou Lu hung up the phone, he said to Xu Jianping on the side: “Guess what Xiao Yan said to me? Wasn’t the handkerchief she had embroidered before in Lu Yang’s hand? When she found out, she told me that she wanted me to take the handkerchief back and let me have it, so that it wouldn’t go into the hands of other men. To tell the truth, I really think that she’s just an ancient lady in disguise.” Xu Jianping glanced at her, “This ancient girl is called smart, think about it, the ancient girl only embroidered a handkerchief for her sweetheart, no one else has it, and men like that kind of stuff the most.” Unfortunately, this fine tradition has not been passed down. “You’re straight male cancer.” Although Zhou Lu felt that what her boyfriend said was also reasonable, she still couldn’t help but choke.
“You know what, gender doesn’t matter, it only depends on what you intend “
Zhou Lu still wanted to refute something, but she couldn’t find anything to say.
“Su Yan is a smart woman.” Although Xu Jianping was an engineer, it was strange is that his emotional intelligence was still online, “If you don’t say anything else, believe it or not, Jiang Jingchuan will eat at this kind of treatment.”
“I believe it.” Zhou Lu hugged the pillow and leaned aside and sighed, “I like this kind of smart woman.”
Xu Jianping put down the book in his hand, reached out, and pinched Zhou Lu’s cheek, “I still like you, even though you’re stupid.”
“Hey!”
After hanging up the phone, Su Yan also felt bored, remembering what he had just said to Zhou Lu, his brain flashed, took out his mobile phone, and sent a message to Jiang Jingchuan: “I just did something, I don’t know if it was right.”
Jiang Jingchuan just arrived at the company, when he received such a message, he quickly returned: “What’s the matter?” Let’s hear it. Su Yan sent a voice this time: “I promised Zhou Lu a few days that I would go over to help. She told me that the handkerchief I embroidered is in her client’s hand, I asked her whether the customer was male or female and she said it was a man. I felt very awkward, so I asked Zhou Lu to take it back and just gave it to her. Would they think that I’m being stingy?? Jiang Jingchuan just opened the computer and heard such a remark, there was a little more smile on his face, and sent a message to Su Yan: “Good.”
He was indeed very happy in his heart because of what Su Yan said. In fact, he didn’t care about this matter himself, but when Su Yan said it, satisfaction in his heart suddenly arose.
He thought that his wife was really sensible and lovely.
