Gao Mingcheng's house facing the street has a very contemporary layout. It is not a suite, but a single room. There are four single rooms on the second floor. Gao Mingcheng and Duo Mei used one room, and Gao Shufang lived in one room. Later, Gao Mingli also moved in. , until now, only one room is empty.
When Duo Mei went to pick up Deng Wanwan, Gao Mingcheng had already packed up the last room.
In this way, the second floor will be full, and the goods originally placed in the empty room will have to be moved to the third floor.
When Deng Wanwan came over, she was still a little shy and gratefully thanked Gao Mingcheng and his wife.
Gao Mingcheng personally rescued Deng Wanwan and sympathized with her plight. At this time, he said in a gentle manner: "You just came here and it's normal that you don't know anything. Just stay calm and learn more from Duomei and Shufang. "
"Selling clothes is relatively simple, as long as you dare to greet customers. Uh, Duomei, bring Wanwan some suitable clothes, this clothes on her won't work!"
Many beauties looked Deng Wanwan up and down, and then went to pick out a set of clothes hanging on the wall.
She handed the clothes to Deng Wanwan and said, "Wanwan, take it to the changing room and change."
Deng Wanwan was flattered, but she didn't dare to take the clothes.
Although she didn't know how much these clothes were worth, one look at the fabric and style told her that they must be expensive.
I just came here, I didn’t do anything, but I was given a new set of clothes to wear!
This kind of thing is simply unheard of.
Gao Shufang also came over, pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Go ahead and change. My second brother said that you can't wear sloppy clothes when selling clothes. Otherwise, when customers come in and see you wearing sloppy clothes, they will look at you." Things from the store. Look, my sister-in-law and I both wear clothes from the store. If you care about your clothes, be careful about what you wear. When you go to the bathroom at night, either change into old clothes or put on a blouse. "
Many beauties also advised her to change quickly.
Deng Wanwan looked at them nervously, and after seeing the sincerity and kindness in their eyes, she nodded shyly and entered the changing room with her clothes.
After a while, she came out dressed in new clothes.
As the saying goes, a man is judged by his clothes, and his appearance is seven percent dressed up. What's more, Deng Wanwan is very beautiful. At this time, her skin is pale, with a trace of illness all over her body, and she looks very much like Sister Lin.
Now the 1983 version of Dream of Red Mansions has been broadcast, but not many people in this small county have TV sets.
If you have watched the 1983 version of Dream of Red Mansions, you will feel that Deng Wanwan is five points like Sister Lin.
She was a beautiful woman, so when her uncle had no money to marry his daughter-in-law, he took the idea of her and abducted her.
Gao Mingcheng doesn't like this kind of weak and bully appearance. It can be seen from his marriage to Duo Mei that he actually likes women like Duo Mei who are somewhat aggressive, quick at work, and brave enough to face life.
If he hadn't eavesdropped, he wouldn't have known that Gao Feifei had ever liked him. It was because Gao Feifei's character was too weak that he never caught his eye.
Gao Mingcheng said: "How beautiful, please remove Wanwan's braid and comb it into a ponytail."
Deng Wanwan's hairstyle is very country style, with two braids hanging from the front to the chest. She looks like an innocent and ignorant little white flower.
But after combing it into a high ponytail and combing all the hair on the forehead, revealing a smooth forehead, the whole person's temperament instantly became bright and majestic.
"It looks good! It really looks much better this way!" Many beauties looked at Deng Wanwan with admiration in their eyes.
Gao Shufang also praised Deng Wanwan for her good looks and asked her to comb her hair like this in the future.
Deng Wanwan looked at Duo Mei and Gao Shufang and found that they also had neat hairstyles, so she pursed her lips and nodded with a smile.
"Take a look for yourself, look, how beautiful it is!" Duo Mei handed a mirror to Deng Wanwan and asked her to see her new look.
When Deng Wanwan saw herself in the mirror, she was stunned.
Who is the person in the mirror? It’s so strange!
She twitched the corners of her mouth stiffly, and the person in the mirror also twitched the corners of her mouth.
is her!
After changing Deng Wanwan from beginning to end, Duomei took Deng Wanwan to get familiar with the situation in the clothing store.
The clothing store is divided into three parts, women's clothing area, men's clothing area and children's clothing area. Women's clothing and children's clothing are next to each other. As for men's clothing, there is a special section.
In the entire men's clothing area, the most popular items are suits with fine texture and various accessories.
While familiar with the layout of the store, Duomei will also tell her how much each piece of clothing will cost.
In order to facilitate memory, Gao Mingcheng adopted the method of later generations when setting prices, that is, this row has the same price, and that pile has the same price. He also posted a note on the shelf with handwriting on it. After the price is clearly marked, customers will know the price, and merchants don’t have to worry about remembering the price of each piece of clothing.
When Deng Wanwan realized that the clothes she was wearing were worth more than fifty, her heart beat violently. She quickly whispered: "These clothes are too expensive, I'd better change them."
Duo Mei smiled and said: "No need to change, this is your employment benefit. From now on, you will be given a new set of clothes every season and every quarter. As for the shoes, you can buy a pair that matches well when you have time."
"Of course, one code equals one code. You just came here this month and you don't understand anything, so this month you only get food and accommodation, but no wages. Next month it will be a basic salary and commission model, that is, the clothes you sell The more, the more money you make.”
This salary was set by Gao Mingcheng. Even Gao Shufang was like this. However, Gao Shufang was paid in the first month.
But Gao Shufang is a biological sister and can also use a sewing machine, so she is naturally different.
Deng Wanwan did not dare to expect to receive wages after getting new clothes. You must know that more than fifty yuan is already a month's salary for a worker.
How dare she ask for more!
While Duomei was taking Deng Wanwan to do things and familiarize herself with the layout upstairs and downstairs, Deng Zhiyong finally came over with the quilt.
When he stood at the door of Xinxin Clothing Store, he didn't dare to walk in rashly.
His feet kept twisting, trying to get the dust off the soles of his feet.
Fortunately, it hasn't rained recently and the soles of my shoes are still clean.
"Dad!" Deng Wanwan saw Deng Zhiyong standing at the door and walked out.
"Ah... Wanwan?" Deng Zhiyong looked up after hearing the familiar voice, but when he saw Deng Wanwan, a strange expression appeared on his face.
The young woman in front of me, beautifully dressed and smiling, is actually his daughter?
For a moment, Deng Zhiyong was in a daze.
"Dad, come in, don't block the door. Sister Duomei, I'll take my dad upstairs to lay the quilt first." In just one hour, Deng Wanwan's temperament has changed.
After she said hello to Duomei, she led her father to the second floor.
The room she lives in is closest to the bathroom, but because there are few people living there and it is a new house, there is no peculiar smell in the bathroom.
The bathroom is separated from wet and dry areas. There is a place for washing outside and a place for going to the toilet inside. There is also a very high faucet installed there. In the summer, you can turn on this faucet and take a cold shower while standing.
As for winter, you have to boil hot water and put it in a bucket for washing.
After entering the room, Deng Zhiyong was even more surprised. He asked: "Is such a big and good room just for you to live alone?"
He looked around, his face full of surprise.
This house is simply a hundred times better than his home! Oops, his daughter really fell into the lucky nest!
Deng Wanwan was also excited. She never thought that one day she would be able to wear such beautiful clothes and live in such a beautiful house.
She and Deng Zhiyong made the bed together.
The bed is 1.5 meters wide, which is considered very wide in this era. In the countryside, many beds are only 1.2 meters wide, which can accommodate three people, one large and one small.
But precisely because the bed is very wide, there are still some empty bed boards after the quilt is spread.
But it doesn’t matter. Although it’s not beautiful enough, it does not affect sleep.
Deng Zhiyong looked at the empty space, gestured with the width of the bed with his hand, and said to Deng Wanwan: "There are still some mats at home. When I get back, I will weave a mat for you. Then go into the mountains to get some palms. The bark of the tree will make you a mattress.”
Listening to her father's plan, Deng Wanwan's heart was filled with excitement. She said, "Forget about the mattress, it's too troublesome. Bring some straw mats, too."
"No trouble, no trouble! How can such a good room be paved with straw? The straw will fall apart!" Deng Zhiyong waved his hand and felt that he couldn't use straw to make the bed. He couldn't say anything else. He just felt that it didn't match. good.
Deng Wanwan asked her father to sit down and rest for a while, and then explained her treatment here, so as to save her parents from worrying.
When he heard that he would not receive any salary for the first month, Deng Zhiyong immediately said: "You can't ask for money. The boss has given you such nice clothes and such a good place to live. You just came here and don't know anything. How can you get anything else?" Want more money? Oh, Wanwan, I should get you some more food."
These days, if you want to learn from a master, you will not get any salary for three years, and you have to bring your own food rations.
So when I heard that Deng Wanwan only had no wages for the first month, Deng Zhiyong didn't complain at all.
Deng Wanwan smiled and said, "Sister Duomei said that food and accommodation are included. I don't need to bring my own food. I just work hard and do my best."
"Well, you have to work hard. Hey, I won't sit down. I'm leaving first. I won't disturb you anymore. Wanwan, you have to be diligent here!" Deng Zhiyong stood up and did not dare to disturb you anymore.
Deng Wanwan couldn't keep him, so she had to go downstairs together.
After sending Deng Zhiyong away, Deng Wanwan continued to learn how to sell clothes with Duomei and Gao Shufang.
She noticed that when no customers came into the store, Gao Shufang was always reading a book.
When asking her, Gao Shufang smiled shyly, and then said: "You can also read when there are no guests. Look, there is a bookshelf in the corner over there. All the magazines and newspapers are on it. You can read it. The guests can also read it if they want. Okay, just be careful not to let the guests take it away."
Deng Wanwan looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough she saw a bookshelf in the corner.
She walked over and looked at the books on the shelf first. She had gone to elementary school and knew all the common words.
Especially because her family lives in a rural area, the primary school is not separate like in Gaojia Village, but she can go to fifth grade in one go.
After graduating from fifth grade, her grades were pretty good and she could continue studying in junior high school. However, her grandmother came to her home and scolded her, saying that girls don't need to read so many books and reading too many books is a waste.
In addition, the family's money was tight, so in the end she did not continue studying, but helped with housework at home and did some light farm work in the fields.
Unexpectedly, she can read books now!
These books were all brought back by Gao Mingcheng from Yangcheng, including domestic magazines and foreign magazines. For Deng Wanwan, who came from the countryside, these books simply opened a door to the palace of knowledge.
Deng Wanwan has adapted well here, mainly because everyone is very nice.
In the evening, she saw Duomei going to the backyard to cook, so she volunteered, "Sister Duomei, let me cook!"
Many beauties glanced at her and didn't know how good her cooking skills were.
But it wasn’t bad to give it a try, so he said to her: “Then wear a blouse and don’t get your clothes dirty.”
Deng Wanwan also cherished her new clothes and was reluctant to even wear a blouse to do things. She said, "I'd better just change into old clothes!"
"Okay." Duo Mei nodded and cooked the rice himself.
Last time Su Tong visited his home for New Year greetings and gave them a rice cooker. After using the rice cooker, many beauties found it much more convenient to cook with the rice cooker, so they all used the rice cooker to cook.
But you still have to use a big iron pot to cook porridge, because there are so many people eating porridge, and the rice cooker can’t cook enough porridge.
Deng Wanwan was very happy to have the opportunity to show off. She quickly turned around and planned to get her old clothes.
Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he almost bumped into Gao Mingli, who was walking towards the backyard.
"Ouch." Deng Wanwan exclaimed and quickly backed away, but there was a small step behind. She missed it and fell directly to the ground.
"Be careful!" Gao Mingli was also shocked and subconsciously stretched out his hand to pull Deng Wanwan.
Deng Wanwan was very thin, and when he pulled her, she threw herself directly into his arms.
After bumping into each other, both of them screamed.
After bumping into a strange man, Deng Wanwan's cheeks did not turn red due to embarrassment, but her face instantly turned pale.
She shook off Gao Mingli's hand and backed away like a savage beast.
Deng Wanwan hates being touched by men, which reminds her of bad memories.
"Mingli, are you off work? This is Deng Wanwan. She will work in the store from now on. Wanwan, this is Mingli, Mingcheng's younger brother." Duo Mei put the washed rice into the rice cooker and pressed the button , and then introduced the two to each other.
After hearing that he was Gao Mingcheng's younger brother, Deng Wanwan's pale face finally improved a little bit. In her heart, Gao Mingcheng is her savior.
If Gao Mingcheng hadn't rescued her from the desperate situation, her life would have been completely ruined.
"Hello." She greeted timidly.
"Ah, hello." Gao Mingli was also a little anxious. He rarely got so close to a strange woman, and Deng Wanwan's appearance amazed him.
Deng Wanwan is not bad in person, and after wearing new clothes and combing her hair in a high ponytail, her facial features become bright and majestic.
But unlike many beauties that are full of vitality, Deng Wanwan's beauty has a hint of unconscious weakness. Only Gao Mingcheng doesn't like this, but most men actually prefer beautiful and weak women like Deng Wanwan.
It can be said that Gao Mingli was attracted by just one glance.
"Sister-in-law, I'm here to light the fire for you." Gao Mingli's heart was beating fast, but he was not the kind of person who was thick-skinned and dared to pick up girls on the spot.
So he lowered his head shyly, not daring to look at Deng Wanwan nakedly.
Gao Mingli lives here and has to pay for food, but when he is free, he will also help with some things, such as lighting the fire, carrying new clothes downstairs, etc.
"Then you can light the fire, but today Wanwan is cooking. Let's try Wanwan's cooking together." Duo Mei didn't notice the situation between the two and spoke normally.
Don't worry about it since the rice is already cooked. All you need to do next is stir-fry.
Deng Wanwan had already changed into her old clothes. With many beautiful introductions, she became familiar with the layout of the entire kitchen. Then she took the dishes for tonight and went to the faucet to clean them.
Gao Mingli sat on the stove and secretly visited Deng Wanwan.
Deng Wanwan, who had put on old clothes, was not as bright and charming as she was at first sight, but she still looked good!
