Chapter 2853 Wu Xinsheng is back
"You are the section chief now, what else do you need us to do?" He Xiaoyue joked. She saw from the internal report that Wu Xinsheng was officially appointed as the deputy section chief of the Nansha County Industry Section not long after he went to the Nansha Factory to guide the work, in charge of the county's textile promotion and training work.

"I lack everything except people." Wu Xinsheng said as he took off his hat and hung it on the hook behind the door. It slipped off and he quickly used the stump of his left arm to catch it.

At this moment, his left sleeve slipped down, revealing a scar on his stump.

He Xiaoyue's whole body stiffened instantly - yes, isn't this the scar that Zhou Suniang mentioned?

Although I don’t know how Zhou Suniang knew it, there is no doubt that they are “old friends”!

He Xiaoyue was thinking about it and deliberately asked, "Chief Wu, your trip to Nansha this time can be considered a successful return home, right?"

"Oh?" Wu Xinsheng was a little surprised, "How do you know I'm from Nansha?"

"Hehe, keep it a secret!" He Xiaoyue looked at Wu Xinsheng carefully again, and vaguely felt that he seemed to be somewhat similar to Zhou Suniang. "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"I said last time that I would bring two girls here to learn how to weave lace..."

"Hasn't the store manager agreed to this? Let them come to work next Monday."

"Now we have to add another person. It's a girl who is going to learn about costumes."

"Add more people if you want," He Xiaoyue said curiously, "We don't make the decision..."

Wu Xinsheng said, "The store manager said he wants to ask you if you are willing to be the master."

He Xiaoyue hesitated. She didn't want to take this job. She was already busy with her own work, and she had to train a new person from scratch. Moreover, this new person was a blank slate, and it would definitely take a lot of time to train him from scratch.

"Yes! Yes!" Guo Xier jumped out directly, "It will be more lively with more girls!"

"Haha, I knew you would say that." Wu Xinsheng looked at He Xiaoyue again, as if trying to find out her opinion.

"Since Xi'er said so, I have no objection." Seeing her positive attitude, He Xiaoyue did not want to reject her outright. She looked at Guo Xi'er and said, "In this case, you have to be a good master."

"No problem, no problem." Guo Xier was very enthusiastic, "I will definitely teach you everything I know!"

"Okay, okay." Wu Xinsheng was also very happy. "I knew you were all warm-hearted girls..."

"Ah, let's not talk about this anymore." He Xiaoyue became very interested in the story of Wu Xinsheng and Zhou Suniang, and immediately made a pot of tea for Wu Xinsheng, asked him to sit down, and said that she wanted to "reminisce about the past." Although Guo Xier was not very smart in many things, she was very "clear-headed" in this regard. Knowing that He Xiaoyue wanted to trick Wu Xinsheng, she quickly slipped out and brought in a plate of assorted fruits for the guests.

Wu Xinsheng was a little confused by their enthusiasm. When they worked together, they had a good relationship, but not a close one. First, there was not much common language between the errand boy and the designer, and second, Guo Xier's identity was also quite sensitive. So they kept a little distance on weekdays.

But enthusiasm is always a good thing. Even though I am a "section chief", there are many things I can ask of them.

"Master Wu, you said you are from Nansha, is there anyone else at home?"

"There is no one left in the family," Wu Xinsheng said. "I only have one younger sister, but she was sold to someone else."

"Have you ever thought of looking for her?"

"I thought about it, but where can I find it?" Wu Xinsheng said with a wry smile, "I only heard that he was sold to a faraway place. After I went to Nansha, I wanted to find the teeth, but I didn't expect that he was no longer in Nansha. Besides, after so many years, even if he was still alive, his appearance would probably have changed a lot."

He Xiaoyue felt more and more that there was a possibility. She asked tentatively, "How many years younger is she than you?"

"Probably seven or eight years old." Wu Xinsheng scratched his head hesitantly.

He Xiaoyue's eyes lit up, and she looked at Wu Xinsheng carefully again, which made Wu Xinsheng feel uneasy. He asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing...nothing..." He Xiaoyue knew she had lost her composure and quickly shook her head, "By the way, don't you have any tokens?"

"I was penniless, what else could I have..." At this point, Wu Xinsheng suddenly seemed to remember something, "Oh, I did have half a comb. When we separated, I broke the comb that my mother left behind and gave each of us half..." At this point, he seemed to be lost in memory, "It's been so many years, I almost forgot!"

"Then, is the comb still there?" "I think it is." Wu Xinsheng frowned and said, "Before going to Nansha, I packed up the odds and ends I didn't need and took them to the cadre department's storage room."

"Take it out and let's have a look..." Guo Xier blurted out. He Xiaoyue originally wanted to look at the comb in circles, but she didn't expect this girl to say it out loud.

"What's so good about a half-broken comb?" Wu Xinsheng asked curiously.

"I just want to take a look."

Wu Xinsheng was very surprised and said hesitantly: "Okay, I'll look for her when I go to get my things in the next few days." Then he said, "Then the girl we sent here..."

"Leave it to me, leave it to me," Guo Xier promised repeatedly, "I will definitely teach her well!"

Seeing Guo Xier agreeing without any principles and patting her chest, He Xiaoyue quickly interrupted: "What is the specific situation of this girl? Can she read?"

"She is the sister of the general manager of our Nansha Textile Factory, her name is Chen Yue." Wu Xinsheng said, "She can read and do needlework."

"It's easy if you can read." He Xiaoyue felt a little relieved. "How old are you?"

"He's sixteen, right?" Wu Xinsheng said. "He's pretty smart, so he should be able to learn it!"

"The boss's sister, so she is still a young lady!" Guo Xier shrank a little.

"Oh, she is the general manager's sister, but she is also very simple, not a rich lady." Wu Xinsheng said, "She is good at spinning, weaving and needlework. Our general manager Chen thinks highly of this sister and wants her to have a better future!"

"This brother is really good!" Guo Xier said. Seeing Wu Xinsheng's somewhat dejected expression, she immediately added, "You are also very good!"

He Xiaoyue was both angry and amused when she saw that she was talking incoherently. She quickly changed the subject to smooth things over. The three of them talked about the next training session until the clerk came to announce that another customer had arrived.

After Wu Xinsheng left, they were busy entertaining guests and receiving guidance from Liu Shuixin. Before they knew it, it was past six in the evening. After they finished cleaning up the office, it was already dark outside the window.

Both of them were single and lived in the dormitory with good income. After get off work, they would usually go out to eat and go shopping together before returning to the dormitory to rest.

When they went out, the moon was already high in the sky. There were bright lights on both sides of the straight street, and pedestrians were bustling about. It was orderly and lively. They both felt as if they were in a dream. The past ten years had passed by like a revolving lantern, and the road to a new world was right under their feet.

Due to the increase in population and the transfer of some industrial capacity, the local labor demand in Lingao is no longer as tight as before. The working hours have been shortened, which has increased the spare time of naturalized citizens and indirectly stimulated the development of business. The original night market has also been extended from 10 pm to midnight.

The two of them walked into a medium-sized clothing store. They naturally would not buy the so-called "ready-made clothes" like ordinary naturalized citizens. They came here mainly to understand consumer preferences. The two of them were not beautiful, but they were dressed in "Australian style" clothes, plus the quiet and elegant temperament cultivated by working in Wan Zi Pavilion, and attracted countless eyes as soon as they entered the door.

"Ladies, is there anything you want to see?" The female clerk came up to greet them immediately. He Xiaoyue just listened to her introduction with a smile. Suddenly, she saw a familiar set of clothes - it was a simplified version of the "Wei Yu Ping Sheng" suit. The material was changed to more common fabric. Although the effect was much worse, the style and meaning were still there.

Seeing her eyes fall on this dress, he said, "This girl has really good taste. This is the best-selling dress in our store. I heard that the designer got the advice of the Weaver Girl in a dream, so she created this dress. Some people also say that she is the reincarnation of the Weaver Girl..."

Guo Xier was already trying to hold back her laughter, but He Xiaoyue was still able to stay calm and continued nodding.

Perhaps thinking that these words were not enough to impress the other party, the female clerk took out her "trump card" - a newly published "Lingao Spring", a fashion magazine.

"Look girl, this dress is the latest 'front-page new style'!"

The two who were about to burst out laughing suddenly became extremely surprised. Guo Xier snatched the magazine and opened it, and was speechless for a moment. "Lingao Spring" is the most authoritative fashion magazine published locally. The front page of each issue is carefully selected and voted by relevant veterans. It is not only unique in design, but also meets certain sales requirements. It can be said to be a true fashion vane. In the past, this front page has always been monopolized by veteran designers. She can be said to be a well-deserved record breaker!
"What?! Is this true?" He Xiaoyue asked anxiously.

"Really!" Guo Xier said, "It's 'Rainy Rain'!" She pushed the magazine into He Xiaoyue's hand, "Look! Look!"

He Xiaoyue was flustered and nervous. Her eyes were blurry and she couldn't see anything clearly. She kept asking, "Where? Where?"

Finally, she calmed down and saw clearly that the new style on the front page was indeed real! The accompanying photo was a rendering of a female veteran wearing it. Although she didn't know the other person, her figure and temperament were not something that naturalized citizens could have.

He Xiaoyue looked at it again and again, and finally burst into laughter. She couldn't stop laughing anymore. She laughed so hard that her body was shaking, her lower abdomen was sore, and she almost couldn't hold on and had to squat down.

Since she escaped from Qingjieyuan, she had many happy things, but she had never wanted to laugh as much as she did today. A heartfelt joy, like a volcanic eruption, gushed out from the bottom of her heart.
