If she hadn’t followed Cai Meihua to buy the bag this time, she definitely wouldn’t have thought of buying it herself.
However, this also reminded her. Didn’t her mother-in-law dislike her for not being sophisticated enough previously? She bought a bag for her mother-in-law as a 60th birthday present. It would definitely make her happy. Cao Meihua seemed to understand this as well. She nodded as she listened at the side.
“Yes!” Su Wen, who had business come to her doorstep, wouldn’t miss this opportunity. “Tell me about your mother-in-law’s personality and hobbies. I’ll Imow what to choose.”
After Deputy Director Wei’s description, Su Wen had an idea and naturally Imew what to do. Those who had stayed abroad had a romantic and exquisite side to them, as well as a conservative and traditional aspect deep down.
Su Wen quickly came up with a design in her mind. She borrowed the pen and paper in Cao Meihua’s office and quickly drew a sketch.
“Take a look at this. I’m thinking of using black for the main body of the bag. The shoulder straps, decorations, and pendants will all be red. The outer packaging will be all in red, perfectly fitting the theme of the aunt’s birthday.
What do you think?”
Deputy Director Wei was obviously pleased and nodded repeatedly. “By the way, can you speed up? My mother-in-law is celebrating her birthday on July 21st. I want to get it in advance and give it to her on her birthday.”
“Sure! No problem. I’ll speed up and work on it first.”
Cao Meihua was also very supportive. After all, Deputy Director Wei’s matter was more important. However, if she knew that after going to her mother-in-law’s house that night and hadn’t even had the chance to show off the bag yet, her mother-in-law s.n.a.t.c.hed it away. Because there was only one bag, her sister-in-law had not s.n.a.t.c.hed it away from her mother-in-law and got into a tiff, she definitely wouldn’t have thought so.
The bag that she had waited for a month to receive was no longer hers after just half a day.
The next bag would still take a month to arrive, and to make matters worse, her sister-in-law was eyeing it greedily. She even ran to her husband to complain, only to be laughed at by him. It made her furious.
“Alright, then I’ll take the deposit. Starting next month, I’ll get some ready-made products in advance. At that time, I won’t accept custom-made orders anymore! However, there were advantages to this as well. We’ll have stock in hand, so you won’t have to wait.”
“Stay for dinner tonight.” Cao Meihua warmly extended the invitation. In this era, the the greatest enthusiasm and the most intimate act to a guest was to invite the other party over for a meal.
“No, we have to go to the county high school.”
“Why are you going there?” Cao Meihua asked with interest.
Deputy Director Wei could not help but facepalm. “Here we go again.” She was going to start talking about her brother again. She should leave first!
“We’re going to check the exam results.” Su Wen didn’t mention Fifth sister’s partic.i.p.ation in the college entrance examination. After all, it was uncertain, and the likelihood of not pa.s.sing the examination was quite high. It was better not to mention it. Hence, she came up with an excuse that they were going to check if Fourth sister, Su Xue, had been admitted.
She thought that would be enough after saying that, but to her surprise, Cao Meihua became even more enthusiastic. She held Su Wen’s hand and took the initiative to follow Su Wen to lead the way when she heard that she did not know where the county high school was. She stopped working and informed her secretary. Then, she rode her bicycle and brought Su Wen and her sisters to the county’s first high school.
This was the best high school in Clear Water County, and it was also the only high school. When they arrived, there was already a constant flow of people. Mainly, the exam results had been posted, and the school had set up a big bulletin board and posted it on it!
Many people came over to take a look at their specific scores first. This was better than waiting for the admission notice at home..
