Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

Xu Yan and Qin Yiheng came here to study for a master's degree. Qin Yiheng and Jiang Yanqiu were from the same school. Xu Yan was from the Imperial Capital University, and she had asked Jiang Yanqiu to help her rent a house a long time ago.

It just so happened that Lin Shaoyang's house had been renovated and had vacant rooms for rent, which was also close to their school, so he helped them rent Lin Shaoyang's house.

This is the first batch of apartment buildings newly built by Lin Shaoyang. It has a large garden and three buildings, all of which are two-story.

There are two buildings with one elevator and three households, each with an area of ​​62 bedrooms and one living room, and two sets of 124 rooms.

There is also a building with two elevators per household, but one of the elevators has not been installed yet. Both are large flats of more than 300 square meters and have not been completed yet.

Xu Yan and her family rented a 120-square-meter apartment, which is a corner unit with north-south ventilation, so they will have a place to stay when guests come to their house in the future.

Originally they asked Jiang Yanqiu to help with the renovation, but Lin Shaoyang said he would rent it out after he had done the renovation.

When the two arrived, Jiang Yanqiu went to greet them and jokingly asked, "Are you here to study or for a mission?"

Jiang Yanqiu was just overthinking it. The university they attended was no worse than the one here.

Wouldn't it be better to study for a master's degree at this university? Why did you come all the way here?

So her first reaction was that the two of them would not come to monitor Gu Qingqing again.

Gu Qingqing took so many things from the Su family, the Su family will definitely not let her go easily.

Xu Yan said with a smile: "We just want to come here to play with you for a few years. Once you get a job, there will be no chance anymore."

Jiang Yanqiu also joked, "I thought you had some purpose."

Qin Yiheng smiled generously and said, "We only help in emergencies, not in poverty. We helped Grandpa Su and his family when they were desperate. Now the Su family is doing well. We can't keep working for them. We don't live only for them."

Xu Yan also explained: "The matter of Gu Qingqing taking things from the Su family has not been concluded yet. There is no substantial evidence to prove that she took them. Moreover, the matter of Yao Jiangong was resolved by the Gu family, my family, and the Su family. The Gu family gave the majority of the money to the Su family and asked them not to mention it again. It's as if there is no daughter named Gu Qingqing."

In the case of Yao Jiangong, the Gu family directly handed over their power in Shanghai to the Su family. It is not known whether the Su family took anything from the matter, but this contribution cannot be bought with money.

Jiang Yanqiu suddenly realized and said, "Before your wedding, I was worried that they would make a scene and embarrass you, but I didn't expect it to be resolved so early."

I actually feel guilty about her. Gu Qingqing took things from both the Su and Gu families, and they all stayed with her. She kept the money and gold, and donated the rest.

Antiques, calligraphy and paintings are the easiest to trace their origins, so we didn’t want to trace them back to her. So she donated them along with the things from the scrap yard.

Seeing her expression, Xu Yan burst out laughing and said, "I think you just want to watch the fun."

Jiang Yanqiu said innocently, "Don't you know what kind of person I am?"

Xu Yan rolled her eyes at her and said, "I'm giving you a cold shoulder, so you can experience it yourself!"

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it was the winter of 1980. The man hiding in the dark and wanting to kill Jiang Yanqiu and the others never showed up.

Chu Tingnan began to suspect that Qiao Lei had sent the letter to tease them deliberately. Otherwise, why wasn't there anyone following them?

Jiang Yanqiu felt that either the other party was hiding too deeply, or there was some reason that made them give up halfway.

Although Qiao Lei took away Chu Tingnan and the others' clothes in retaliation, there was no need to make such a boring joke.

Since no one was following them, Jiang Yanqiu and the others stopped worrying about it and focused entirely on their studies.

Over the past year or so, Chu Tingnan's agency has been thriving, covering several surrounding cities and making good profits.

This really proves the saying that if you stand in the right place, even a pig can fly.

Uncle Nan originally wanted to give them the agency rights in the Northeast, but Chu Tingnan and the others knew that it would be a waste of time to try to get more.

They were still students and didn't have that much time to manage it, so they decisively refused.

However, I did introduce a friend I met when I was an educated youth to be the agent.

Nanfeng and Lao Qingxiang's business is also booming. Although they have not yet made back their capital and the more than 20,000 yuan that was stolen, victory is in sight.

This year, the flow of people in the imperial capital has been increasing, and Chu Tingnan and his team struck while the iron was hot and opened two new stores in the imperial capital.

The agency company is managed by two other partners. Chu Tingnan only needs to check the situation regularly, check the accounts, and determine whether the products of the agency are qualified. They don't need to interfere with anything else.

The remaining stores are also managed by dedicated staff, so they don't have to worry too much.

Chu Tingnan also put more attention on studying. After all, he still liked ancient architecture the most.

As for Qi Bing and Tian Mi, they would go out to pick up bargains whenever they had free time. The antique market has developed well in the past two years, and they both made a lot of money.

After redeeming the antiques, calligraphy and paintings that were mortgaged to Chu Tingnan and the house, he still had a lot of money.

Jiang Yanqiu's restaurant also opened, and at the old man's suggestion, the name was changed to their old brand, Zui Xiang Lou.

Jiang Yanqiu felt that it would be a bit strange to use this name for a hotel in the future.

But Mr. Murong said that the hotel would be given another name in the future and would not be mixed with Zui Xiang Lou. Jiang Yanqiu listened to her opinion.

After the first year's dividends, Jiang Yanqiu's average monthly income was less than 1,500 yuan, mainly because of the limited food ingredients.

But overall, it's not bad. They don't have to worry about anything.

In addition to the restaurant, Jiang Yanqiu also received dividends from the beauty cream sold at the Chinese medicine clinic, which is sold all over the country.

The convenient product is called Yurong Cream, and the box has the Jimin logo on it. There are no specialty stores, and it is sold in state-owned supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores.

But it’s really easy to make money from women, beauty creams are effective and the products are easy to sell.

Sun Yufang gave Jiang Yanqiu 30% of the profits, and now she can get more than 20,000 yuan in a quarter.

Jiang Yanqiu only collected half, and kept the other half in the Chinese medicine clinic. If someone was sick and had no money to see a doctor, they could use that money to pay for it.

Sun Yufang also took a portion of the dividends and said that patients with special and serious illnesses who could not afford medical treatment in other hospitals could also come to their traditional Chinese medicine clinic to apply for treatment expenses.

Therefore, the Health Bureau also specially issued an honorary certificate to Jimin Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic.

Gu Qingqing and Gu Qingshi also opened several clothing stores. The clothes were all designed by herself. The stores were all located near Chu Tingnan’s Nanfeng store.

But it doesn't matter. Gu Qingqing's clothes are more feminine and fashionable, while Nanfeng's are more casual.

Jiang Yanqiu and her friends sometimes go to Gu Qingqing's store to buy clothes.

She didn't expand the workshop too much, with only a dozen people, and the clothes she made were only sold in their store.

She is still a student and has no time to manage it personally. Moreover, there are frequent policy changes. She is afraid that the scale will be too large for her to manage, and she will end up making things difficult for others.

If she teamed up with others, she was afraid of meeting someone like Qiao Lei, who would become shy after being bitten by a snake.

She can only take it slow. She has no shortage of money and wants to show her abilities.

However, these stores are enough to demonstrate her abilities, provide her with a stable source of income, and prevent her from being looked down upon.

Moreover, the business of her stores was very good. She was too busy studying to take care of them, so she asked Zhou Xiujuan, who had already retired, to help her manage them.

Although Gu Qingqing failed in business, it was just because she met the wrong person, and her abilities were still recognized by the Gu family.

Now the company has arranged a nanny and a security guard for Gu's father. Zhou Xiujuan has nothing to do at home after retirement. She and her second daughter-in-law glare at each other every day, and both sides dislike each other.

Seeing that Gu Qingqing and the others were too busy, Zhou Xiujuan took the initiative to help, and Gu Qingqing did not refuse. Family members are always more reliable than outsiders.

However, Gu Qingqing publicly stated that she would give her a high salary separately, so that her two sisters-in-law would not think that the clothing store was the common property of the Gu family in the future.

Gu Qingqing was afraid that others would copy her designs, so she sold all her designs to Uncle Nan's clothing factory through Chu Tingnan.

However, there is a prerequisite, that is, they are not allowed to have the same models, nor are they allowed to be sold in the capital.

Uncle Nan agreed readily. Gu Qingqing's design draft was still relatively good, so it was okay even if he was not allowed to sell it domestically.

Now Nanfeng has been exported to foreign countries, and Gu Qingqing's design drafts are also very popular there.

Previously, Uncle Nan wanted to invite Gu Qingqing to work part-time as their designer, and the salary was not low.

However, Gu Qingqing wanted shares, but the garment factory was state-controlled and Uncle Nan had no say in the matter.

Back then, the textile factory was short of money, and the machinery and equipment were obtained through his connections, so he had the opportunity to buy shares.

Now everyone is reluctant to sell their shares, and he himself is also reluctant to do so. If he sells his shares, his management rights will be in danger.

So the factory spent a high price to buy Gu Qingqing's design drawings, but the same new products from both companies had to be launched on the same day.

Gu Qingqing understood all this and agreed. It was better than letting others take advantage of her for free. At least she could earn some design fees.

Tian Mi and Jiang Yanqiu went abroad to study with others when they were in college and completed their credits a year ahead of schedule.

Now Jiang Yanqiu and Tian Mi are preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination. They want to stay students for another three years, and the salary after starting work is not high.

There is no direct admission to graduate school now, so their grades are poor in their majors, but if they want to study for a master's degree, they can only rely on their own efforts.

Mr. Wang didn't let Jiang Yanqiu go to work. He also suggested that Jiang Yanqiu prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination. As for studying abroad, he felt that it was unnecessary.

If you can't get into a top foreign university when studying abroad, it's better to stay in China. The situation in China is pretty good now.

Chu Tingnan and Qi Bing were busy with the management of the company and did not complete the credits in advance, but they graduated in July and were preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination.

Jiang Yanqiu and her family are planning to spend the New Year at Nandu's Nan family home, and Tian Mi also wants to go to Nandu for a visit.

In addition, they wanted to contract land in the Special Administrative Region, and Uncle Nan had already taken a look at it and was just waiting for them to go there to confirm and pay the money to go through the formalities.

Several people are planning to go to the Special Administrative Region as soon as the winter break starts.
