When Monkey returned home at around seven o'clock in the evening, he saw Zhang Yuanyuan sitting under a kerosene lamp doing needlework. He immediately turned on the lights in the room.
Then he asked Zhang Yuanyuan: "Why don't you turn on the light?"
"It's a waste of electricity. Besides, I'm just tying small flowers and don't need so much light, so I just use a kerosene lamp."
After hearing what Zhang Yuanyuan said, Monkey knew that Zhang Yuanyuan was trying to save money, so he reluctantly turned on the light. He immediately held Zhang Yuanyuan's hand in distress.
Then she said to Zhang Yuanyuan: "Yuanyuan, I know you feel sorry for me, but I also feel sorry for you, so don't do this again in the future, otherwise you will hurt your eyes.
Also, you don’t have to worry about household expenses. Before, it was because I was buying a house and getting married, so my money was so tight.
But starting from next month, you don't have to worry about money anymore, because my salary is enough to support our family. "
Zhang Yuanyuan nodded after hearing what the monkey said, and then she put the half-pricked flowers into the dustpan, and then said to the monkey: "You go take a bath first, and I will heat up the food for you."
"No, I can just warm myself up. It's getting late now, so you should go to bed early."
"Okay, then I'll go to bed first, and you can go to bed early after dinner."
The monkey nodded after hearing Zhang Yuanyuan's words, and then he turned off the lights in the room after Zhang Yuanyuan lay down on the kang.
Then he walked out of the house and went to the kitchen to heat up the food.
At seven o'clock the next morning, after Lu Xiaoxiao finished breakfast, she took the hairpins and hair ties made by her and Zhang Yuanyuan and walked towards the cotton spinning factory closest to her home.
When she came to the door of the cotton spinning factory, she saw many young girls walking towards the cotton spinning factory. It seemed that she had come to the right place today.
However, she was not in a hurry to sell hair clips and hair ties, because the business she was rushing to do was not called business, so she planned to advertise first.
So she took out a hairpin from the basket and put it on her head, then took out a hair tie and put it on her high ponytail, and then she stood upright at the door of the cotton spinning factory.
"Comrade, can you take a moment to talk?" As soon as Yu Baolan walked to the factory gate, she was attracted by the hair tie on Lu Xiaoxiao's head, so she walked to Lu Xiaoxiao and whispered to Lu Xiaoxiao asked.
After Lu Xiaoxiao heard what Yu Baolan said, she looked towards Yu Baolan. When she saw what Yu Baolan was wearing, she knew that her first business was done.
So she nodded to Yu Baolan, and then walked with Yu Baolan to a deserted place.
When she reached a place where no one was around, she asked Yu Baolan, "Comrade, what's the matter with calling you here?"
Yu Baolan immediately felt a little embarrassed after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, but when she saw the hair tie on Lu Xiaoxiao's head, she mustered up the courage to ask Lu Xiaoxiao: "Comrade, I want to ask Where did you buy the hair tie you wear on your head?"
“I didn’t buy it, I made it myself.”
"Then you are really awesome."
After Lu Xiaoxiao heard Yu Baolan's words and saw Yu Baolan's disappointed look, she knew that Yu Baolan particularly liked the hair tie on her head, otherwise Yu Baolan wouldn't put it on from time to time. His eyes fell on the hair tie.
So she took out a hair tie from the basket and handed it to Yu Baolan and said, "This hair tie is for you."
"give me?"
"Yes, I think you really like the hair tie I'm wearing, so I'll give you one."
"How embarrassing."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I still have a lot of hair ties." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, he opened some of the cloth covering the basket, revealing the hair ties inside.
