Chapter 410: A Close-Up Look at a Good Show
After her interview, some clips of interviews with female workers were broadcast.
"I'm very grateful, grateful to President Si for giving us work. In the past, I stayed at home to take care of the children, and no matter how much housework I did, I couldn't get respect from my in-laws. Later, I had my own job and my own salary, and now I don't have to look at anyone's face..."
"My husband died early, and I raised three children by myself. Farming couldn't afford to send them to school. I have no education and don't want my children to suffer poverty for a lifetime like me. Now I can have a job to support my children's schooling, I'm grateful..."
These women spoke of their ordinary stories, and without exception, they would choke up at the end.
Si Rong felt deeply moved as she watched. At the very beginning, she just didn't want her good friend Ming Zi to marry Luo Sheng and ruin her life for money.
But later, one clothing store became three, and she began to have employees under her. When the supply of goods from other places was affected for various reasons, she started this clothing factory.
Hiring designers and hiring various tailoring teachers—during that period, she was so busy her feet never touched the ground.
It could be said that in both her lives combined, she had never been so busy.
But looking at it now, everything was worth it.
She not only grew stronger herself but also indirectly helped these women who were just like her.
No, it wasn't that she helped them; it was that they helped each other.
It is precisely because they are here that there is the wonderful development of the clothing factory today.
"Mom, you're on TV, how great!"
Jiang Siyu clapped for her mother with her chubby little hands.
"Mom, great!" Jiang Sinian said concisely.
"Wife is great!" Jiang Cheng continued the relay.
"You are all very great too," Si Rong looked at everyone in the family, "I was very busy during that time, but you two were both very well-behaved, and Mom and Dad also helped me a lot, as well as Wang Ma. In short, everyone has worked hard!"
Jiang Cheng heard until the end, but didn't hear his wife praise him.
"You, wait until the evening when we return to the room, I will praise you separately."
This sentence from his wife in his ear immediately made Jiang Cheng feel psychologically balanced.
He just liked being praised separately.
At the same time, the Shen family was also watching TV.
Seeing the scene where Si Rong was praised as an Excellent Female Entrepreneur, Li Xuan was full of sourness.
"What entrepreneur? Isn't it just inherited capitalist? It's all about exploiting people and squeezing the lower classes to make money. For this kind of person, what is there to praise?"
"Exactly!" Shen Mu echoed, "Our family's business is doing quite well too, and we haven't gone on TV to show off like her!"
Shen Yuan:...
She got a headache hearing this family talk.
Of course they weren't on TV because their family wasn't qualified enough.
Si Rong went from setting up a stall to opening a clothing store, and finally to starting a clothing factory, step by step, one footprint at a time.
Nowhere like Shen Lan and Li Xuan, this pair of idiots.
First they sold socks and hair ties, and seeing that business was good, they started selling perfume and other messy things.
Using the guise of being a 'Child Prodigy', everything sold well.
It was all just daily necessities like pencils, notebooks, underwear, and towels that could be replaced at any time.
Shen Yuan was already tired; she only hoped to grow up quickly and get rid of this family.
With them like this, they were still there criticizing Si Rong for being on TV. However, the influence of television was becoming greater and greater now.
Many families were buying more and more home appliances; if only she could be on TV too.
That way she could become even more famous.
Once she stood in a high enough place, she didn't believe Jiang Sinian would still have that attitude toward her.
Soon, the news that Shen Yuan was going to be on TV spread throughout the entire Yuhong Class.
"Shen Yuan, are you really going to be on TV?" one child asked with envy.
Shen Yuan nodded, trying her best to restrain her excitement, "The TV station also let me choose two good friends; when the time comes, we can edit a small clip and also be on TV."
She didn't believe that with such a good spot, the Jiang Family siblings wouldn't be tempted!
The children were all overjoyed and began to fight over who was Shen Yuan's best friend.
"Last time she almost fell, I was the one who helped her, so Shen Yuan's best friend must be me!"
"Wrong! It's me! Last time Shen Yuan went to the toilet to poop and forgot to bring paper, I was the one who lent it to her, her best friend is me! Shen Yuan, if you don't let me be your best friend, you have to return the toilet paper to me!"
"Shen Yuan, I'll return it for you!" one child was even more extreme, directly pulling a long string of toilet paper from their pocket and throwing it onto another child's head, "From now on, I'll cover all the paper you use to wipe your butt, let me be your best friend!"
Shen Yuan:...
A bunch of little idiots.
"Everyone, be quiet!" Shen Yuan looked at the Jiang Sinian siblings, who hadn't participated in the fight for her best friend spot from beginning to end, and brought out Huang Laoshi.
"Although you are all my good friends, Huang Laoshi said that my appearance on TV this time has a positive impact on the school, so the choice of good friends must be decided by Huang Laoshi."
An impatient child immediately asked, "Then who did Huang Laoshi choose to go?"
Shen Yuan looked at Jiang Sinian and smiled friendly, "One of the good friends Huang Laoshi chose for me is Jiang Sinian, and one is Han Jiajia."
Han Jiajia was a good friend of hers, and like her, she didn't like Jiang Yue.
Just for this point, Shen Yuan was willing to give her one of the good friend spots.
Jiang Sinian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but soon said, "I'm not going! I'm not good friends with you!"
Shen Yuan had expected this, so she brought out Huang Laoshi again, "Jiang Sinian, are you not listening to Huang Laoshi?"
At this, Jiang Sinian fell silent.
Nainai had said that one must listen to Huang Laoshi, otherwise one wouldn't be a good child.
Seeing him tacitly agree, Shen Yuan's expression gradually became smug.
See?
I didn't believe I couldn't handle this little fellow.
Right up until school let out and they went home, little Jiang Sinian remained sullen.
"What's wrong?" Si Rong had her son sit on her lap; it was rare to see such a conflicted little expression on him.
Before Jiang Sinian could open his mouth, Jiang Siyu was already chattering away at the side, having finished explaining the whole matter.
"She wants Sinian and another child to go on television with her?"
Jiang Siyu nodded, indignant, "That's right, she didn't ask me!"
Si Rong:...
It's clear that you really want to go.
Since Shen Yuan proposed this herself, Si Rong thought for a moment and said, "Son, if she wants you to go, then go! Mommy will accompany you."
Since Huang Laoshi had already made the arrangements, if they didn't let the child go now, they would have to find a replacement at the last minute; it was likely the school also attached great importance to Shen Yuan appearing on television.
Appearing on television? Could it be such a coincidence? She had just appeared on television herself, and now Shen Yuan wanted to as well?
Does she really think television is that easy to get on?
The television station surely has its own plans for the sake of a gimmick; is Shen Yuan certain she can really handle it?
Si Rong felt that she and her son would very likely be watching a good show up close.
The day arrived quickly, and Si Rong accompanied her son, along with several other parents, to participate in the television station's program recording.
Naturally, this included Li Xuan and Shen Lan.
That's fine, this time they could watch the whole family's drama.
Li Xuan's attitude was haughty, "Si Rong, the fact that you all can go this time is thanks to the grace of our Shen Yuan!"
