Rebirth 83: Hundreds of billions of net worth, starting from setting up a stall

Chapter 21 Giving Gifts to Brother-in-law



"Who is it?"

There was a sound of footsteps and the door was opened.

A tall woman came out.

The woman wore a half-sleeved aqua blue shirt on her upper body and a milky white fluffy pleated skirt on her lower body. She had neat short hair and a women's watch on her wrist.

In today's era, it is definitely a fashion pioneer.

It was his uncle's wife, Yu Li.

"Sister-in-law."

Li Cunxi called someone with a smile.

Yu Li looked at Li Cunxi's refreshing and handsome appearance, her eyes lit up, and a smile broke out on her face: "Brother-in-law is here, come in quickly."

"excuse me."

Li Cunxi walked in with a smile.

He said that in the Yanjia Hutong, except for the men and the older generation who looked down upon him, the remaining young girls and sisters-in-law treated him seriously.

This also includes my elder sister-in-law.

The house in Tongzilou is small, with an apartment of about thirty square meters, two rooms plus a living room, and no balcony or bathroom.

Bai Maoqi's face darkened immediately when he saw Li Cunxi on the sofa.

"What are you doing here?"

he asked coldly.

Yu Li rolled her eyes at her husband: "The visitor is a guest. This is not a large courtyard. There is no need to put on such a bad face for your mother."

Bai Maoqi still had a cold face: "I'm not putting on a bad face just for my mother. I don't like him at all. Xiaoyan needs to have good looks and education. Why should he get it? Is he worthy?"

"Whether you are worthy or not is a matter between two people. I still think you are not worthy of me. Bai, if you can't speak, then shut up and don't start a fight."

Yu Li put her hands on her hips and stared.

Bai Maoqi immediately lost his temper and looked at the book in his hand with a frown on his face.

Li Cunxi pretended not to hear Bai Maoqi's sarcasm, and first took out the bag containing the perfume and handed it to Yu Li: "Sister-in-law, this is my first time coming to the house. I have prepared some small gifts. I have smelled the fragrance of foreign famous brands. It is particularly suitable for noble and generous people." of you."

"Haha, look at this little sweet-mouthed girl. I want my sister-in-law to say that Xiaoyan made the right choice in choosing you. If you are really looking for a man, if you don't find someone who is handsome and can coax people, why don't you find a nerd who reads books every day?"

Yu Li had actually seen the bags from the Friendship Store a long time ago.

There was a woman in their factory who got such a bag from nowhere and used it to carry things every day. She looked very proud.

If you say you are not envious, you would be lying. Even if you ask all over the Forty-Nine Cities, no one would not want to go into the Friendship Store to open their eyes and buy something they like.

If you don’t believe it, then go to the Friendship Store early and squat in front of it. There are young men and big girls lying on the store window, wishing they could stare into the store.

Unexpectedly, she would also receive something from the Friendship Store today.

"Sister-in-law, hurry up and smell it to see if you like it. If it doesn't fit, Friendship Store will replace it."

Li Cunxi smiled.

This Friendship Store does guarantee returns and exchanges, and it also has a dedicated foreign customer service department responsible for after-sales issues. The service attitude is completely different from that of the salespersons of the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Eh!"

Yu Li happily took the bag and took out the beautifully packaged box inside.

"Look, foreign products are exquisite, and the packaging must be worth a lot of money."

She said, carefully opening the box for fear of damaging it.

Li Cunxi came to his uncle again and took out a Marlboro from the bag: "Brother, you have to socialize in the factory. It's nice to hand out these cigarettes. You are still used to smoking. I will give you a few more in the future. If you’re not used to it, we can just change it to Yunyan or Hongta Mountain.”

Bai Maoqi looked up at the Marlboro and frowned: "These cigarettes and perfume are not cheap, are they? You don't work all day long, how can you get so much money? Is it possible that you asked Xiaoyan for it?"

Marlboro is rare in the current domestic market.

He knew this because the factory had business relations with foreign businessmen. In order to entertain foreign guests, the factory leaders kept several packets in the office. It was said that they could get them from scalpers, and each packet cost at least seven yuan.

"I recently set up a stall on Xiushui Street. There are many foreigners there and I receive a lot of foreign exchange coupons. I also happened to make a friend who is a translator. Under his cover, I sneaked into the Friendship Store and used the foreign exchange coupons to buy things for the two of me and my nephew. Got a little gift.”

Li Cunxi took out three kilograms of toffee, two plates of chocolate and malted milk from the cloth bag, and placed them on the wooden table.

I definitely have to talk about setting up a stall.

The purpose of his visit this time was to set up a connection with his uncle and get a batch of overstocked goods for export to be sold on Xiushui Street.

Bai Maoqi looked at the chocolates, his brows furrowed even more, he raised his head and said solemnly: "These gifts are too expensive, our family can't afford them, please take them and leave as soon as possible."

Yu Li, who was spraying perfume, immediately became unhappy when she heard this: "Bai Maoqi, are you sick? Our brother-in-law is kind enough to give you a gift. If you're not grateful, just forget it and drive him away?"

"Daughter-in-law, if you show your courtesy for nothing, you are either committing adultery or stealing. If you accept this gift of hundreds of dollars from him, you will probably have to do thousands of things. We can't take this gift."

Bai Maoqi stood up and grabbed the perfume from his wife's hand, preparing to return it to Li Cunxi.

Yu Li immediately grabbed the perfume again and said sarcastically: "Bai Maoqi, you are a team leader and you are putting it on the shelf. Even if Li Cunxi asks you to do something, what's wrong with you helping him? He is not your brother-in-law?"

"Not really."

Bai Maoqi sneered again and again.

In the Lao Bai family, except for his wife and sister, no one regarded Li Cunxi as a family member.

"you..."

Yu Li wanted to curse again.

Li Cunxi quickly stopped him and said, "Sister-in-law, please don't quarrel with me because it's not worth it."

"And eldest brother is right. My purpose in giving gifts is not pure. I really want to do something with eldest brother."

"But if the eldest brother is worried, it's okay not to do anything. As for the gifts, you must keep them. Just treat Xiaoyan and I as filial piety to my eldest brother and sister-in-law. If it's okay, I'll leave."

Done.

He walked out without looking back.

Yu Li took two quick steps and pulled Li Cunxi back just as he was about to go out.

"Cun Xi, what you said is obvious. I am your sister-in-law, and he is your brother. If you come to us with something, even if you don't give a gift, we will do our best to help."

"Sister-in-law, I really can't let you and brother get into trouble. If that happens, my conscience won't let me go. Just let me go."

Li Cunxi opened the door and left again.

Yu Li simply blocked the door and yelled at her husband who was sitting on the sofa: "Bai Maoqi, you are worth a thousand dollars, I will give you two ways, either pack your things and go back to your mother's house, or you can solve the problem." Let Cun Xi do it."

Bai Maoqi's eyes widened with disbelief on his face: "You want to drive me away?"

"If you don't leave, then I will take the baby back to my parents' home. When the time comes, don't beg me to come back."

Yu Li was also furious. Now it was not just a question of whether her husband could help Li Cunxi with things, but also her control over the family.

If her husband refuses to give in, she will really go back to live with her parents.

Bai Maoqi looked at his really angry wife, opened the Marlboro directly, and said, "Tell me what's going on, and I'll see if I can help you."

"It's almost there."

Yu Li turned her anger into a smile and said to Li Cunxi, "Cunxi, tell your brother-in-law if you have anything to do. I'll wash an apple for you."
