"Two days ago, I went to the building materials market to look at crystal lamps. They are so expensive, costing two to three thousand a set." In Luxurious Future, Xia Xizhou sat on the small sofa in the warehouse, tapping his calf and complaining to An Ran, "I went shopping for two in a row. In the afternoon, I was exhausted from walking, and I didn’t see anything suitable.” "Where did you buy the crystal lamp to use?" An Ran asked. "In the store." Xia Xizhou said, "I want to change the crystal lamp in the store. I think the current lamp does not look good." "In the store." An Ran repeated, handing her the bag he was carrying, "Do you have a favorite brand and style?" "What is this?" Xia Xizhou took it with both hands and asked curiously, "No, as long as it looks good and matches the style of the store." "My grandma made the last two boxes of persimmons for you to try." An Ran took off the small satchel she was carrying and stuffed it behind her back. "Your grandma can also make persimmon cakes. Is she so good at it?" “We had a good harvest of persimmons at home, and grandma couldn’t finish them all, so she made persimmon cakes.” "Excellent." Xia Xizhou immediately put the bag on his knees, opened it, and saw two beautiful red gift boxes neatly packed inside. He was silent for a moment and asked suspiciously, "It's packaged like this, Are you sure you didn’t buy it?” "Thank you for the compliment!" An Ran took off the small bag he was carrying from his shoulders.
"The packaging is very nice." Xia Xizhou affirmed pragmatically, "The packaging skills are also good." She owns a second-hand luxury store, and the most common work she does on weekdays is all kinds of packaging. Naturally, she has developed good packaging skills, but she has to admit that the straps on the red box in front of her are tied with knots. It was so good, so beautiful that she was a little reluctant to open it now. An Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "The persimmons inside are also delicious, you can try them." Xia Xizhou nodded, but did not immediately open the box to eat the persimmons. Instead, he took one from the table behind him and handed the red envelope that had been placed there for a long time to An Ran, "It's a small thing, don't dislike it." "Did you ask me to come here specifically to give me a red envelope?" An Ran leaned back on the sofa gently. "Take it." Xia Xizhou stuffed the red envelope into An Ran's arms, "I was afraid that you wouldn't come when I told you to come and get the money." "If I had known that you asked me to come here to give me money, I would have come faster." An Ran asked with a smile, "Why did you suddenly send me a red envelope?" She and Xia Xizhou negotiated the items for consignment at "Luxury Futures" and signed a contract in black and white. They were settled monthly and settled according to the items sold that month. Today is not the day to settle the bill. "As of yesterday, all the clothes, bags, jewelry, household items, etc. that you used for taking pictures have been sold out. The store's sales this month have tripled compared to last month. I'm thinking, why don't I give you a Even with the red envelope, I can't sleep well at night." Xia Xizhou smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes, showing that he was really happy to have made a fortune. An Ran followed happily and said, "Thank you, boss, I will accept it without any courtesy." "Take it, take it." Xia Xizhou laughed loudly, "Take my red envelope so that I can make an appointment with you for our next cooperation." An Ran nodded, "The boss is so generous with his money, so it makes no sense that he doesn't work more diligently." "Just keep it." After Xia Xizhou laughed, he couldn't help but sigh, "I don't dare to squeeze too much from the eldest lady of the An family." Speaking of squeezing. An Ran thought of the text message Sheng Fuhua sent to herself yesterday, "Why, the eldest young master of the Sheng family can squeeze you as much as you want, but the eldest lady of the An family can't serve you? There is no way to be overly modest." "Is he complaining to you?" When Xia Xizhou mentioned his eldest nephew, he was disgusted and amused at the same time. "He is the only male in our family. Who else can I turn to if I don't look for coolies? Huh, this guy deserves to be scolded. I’ll tell him to go another day.” "He had a few chats last night." An Ran couldn't help but smile and say a few good things for Sheng Fuhua, "Although he is a bit careless, he is still quite well-behaved." Sheng Fuhua has a kind nature. If he hadn't been like this, he wouldn't have been the same in his previous life. Will be deceived into doing so by harmful friends. "I don't have a good mind, so I only have the advantage of being obedient." As an aunt, Xia Xizhou naturally understood her nephew, but she still disliked him.
An Ran couldn't help but laugh, "Being good-looking is also an advantage." "That's true." Speaking of his nephew's good looks, Xia Xizhou couldn't help but smile and narrow his eyes, "My store's recent performance has increased, and you all have contributed to it." An Ran pursed her lips and smiled, stuffing the red envelope in her hand into the small satchel on her back. Today, Sunday, is a beautiful sunny day. Grandma dressed up energetically after breakfast early in the morning, took Aqiu out to visit, and sent persimmons to a sister who lived in the west of the city, saying that she would not come back until the afternoon. Before leaving, he said to her in a good voice: "There are meals prepared by Aqiu in the kitchen. If you are hungry, you can have some hot food at noon." An Ran nodded with a smile on her face and helped her grandma get into the car. After that, she rushed into her room to catch up on homework and brush papers. She was so busy that she almost forgot about time. Her efficiency was so high that not even the chirping sparrows jumping on the bare branches outside the window could distract her. If she hadn't been disturbed by Xia Xizhou's phone call, she wouldn't have known it was past lunch time. Xia Xizhou's call came just in time. She had overfulfilled her tasks and was about to take a rest. While An Ran was placing the red envelope, Xia Xizhou untied her ties, took out a frosted orange persimmon from the red box, broke it open and stuffed it into her mouth. As soon as the persimmon entered her mouth, her taste buds were conquered, "Okay. eat." The persimmon in my hand has a silky, delicate texture and is very moist. This was the first time she knew that the persimmons she made could be so delicious, "How did you make this? It's so delicious." When you take a bite, the persimmon is soft, glutinous and silky. "It's delicious. I'll bring it to you next time." An Ran also reached out and took out one from the box and opened it bit by bit. The strong aroma of persimmons poured into her nose. She touched the soft and elastic persimmons in her hands, feeling even hungrier. The persimmons I made with my grandma this year were even better than I imagined. The taste of persimmon is rich and full, accompanied by a hint of sourness. The sweetness is moderate, not too cloying, and gives a comfortable taste. Those who have eaten it have never said it is not delicious. Because the persimmons are so well made, Grandma An spends more time visiting the house these days than usual. From time to time she can't help but take a few boxes to give away, and she always receives various small gifts when she comes back. , not to mention how happy she is, what makes her happiest is that the persimmons she made by herself have been praised by her relatives and friends, and she has also been asked by several old sisters to teach them how to make persimmons. Grandma, who is usually quiet at home, has recently been busy delivering persimmons and teaching old sisters how to make persimmons, which is a great pleasure. Even on rare weekends, I couldn't bear to leave An Ran at home alone. This never happened before. 1314(End of this chapter)
