Cao Xiaoling was stunned. "Sister Chen, what is it? Do you feel that something is amiss?"

"Nothing." "I still don't trust her that much. I know you're saying that we can't do business together, but if a competitor comes along, we'll only be afraid of our own family's backstabbing you. So, you should be careful, if anything happens, all the effort will go down the drain."

Cao Xiaolian understood this, and she knew that some of Chen Lifen's actions were offensive. She nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"Alright." Shang Yin patted her shoulder, "It will take at least ten days to make a trip this time. Take good care of things here. The first batch will probably be delivered by the time you return."

"Don't worry." Cao Xiaolian laughed, "I'm going to Shanghai in two days. There's an order meeting there. I'll show them some sample clothes. Perhaps you will realize your business dream in less than two years."

Actually, with Shang Yin's intelligence, he could easily shake them off and show off his skills. It was just that right now, she was too concerned about Tao Qing and couldn't do anything. Otherwise, she would have achieved her goals long ago.

After Shang Yin left, the first batch of sample clothes were also completed.

She had designed five different styles. One was a long down to the knees down jacket, the other was a medium length down jacket that covered her buttocks, and there were also short forms for sports.

Every age level was taken into account, and so was the region.

When the clothes came out, she was very satisfied. Apart from Chen Lifen's men, the workmanship of making clothes was not covered.

"Alright, Sis Chen, I will pack these clothes and take them to Shanghai for everyone to see. I also hope that our costumes can be ordered successfully at the fair this time around."

Whether or not he would be able to pay a salary this year all depended on this.

Therefore, Cao Xiaolian felt that the burden on her shoulders was heavy.

There had to be someone left in the factory, Chen Lifen was in charge, Cao Xiaolan was carrying clothes, carrying a train ticket she had booked a week ago, on her way to Shanghai.

Before leaving, Cao Xiaoling reminded him, "Sister Chen, you must keep the blueprints on the table. There are some clothes that we need to buy in the future. I'm going to Shanghai to make some fabrics for this batch. If someone steals them, we won't be able to survive."

Chen Lifen nodded her head like she was pounding garlic. "Sister, don't worry. I know what I'm doing. This thing is more important than my life. I would rather die than take it."

Cao Xiaolian smiled and got on the train without a word.

At the moment, the traffic was not very developed. It would take two days and two nights for the train to reach Shanghai.

On the way, she took out the eggs she had boiled in advance. She bought a lower bunk opposite a pregnant woman with a big belly, both of whom were empty because it wasn't a holiday.

"It would be great if they didn't come." The pregnant woman opposite of them laughed and pointed upwards, "It's just the two of us. It's more peaceful here."

Once the chatbox was opened, it could not be stopped.

The pregnant woman, He Qing, was from the same village with Cao Xiaolan. She had settled down in Shanghai with the army. She had come back to visit the old man when she was pregnant. She had to go back when it was time.

As soon as he heard that Cao Xiaolan's little sister was also in the army, he became extremely excited and insisted on asking which team she was from.

Cao Xiaolian was also embarrassed. "I heard it's in Ningbo. I really don't know what it is."

She definitely knew about it. However, since she was out, she had to be wary of others. She had to be careful in everything she did.

He Qing was a little disappointed, but she promised that if there was anything in the future, she could come and find her. In any case, Ning Bo was very close to Shanghai.

Just as they were talking, the car stopped and a bespectacled man with a briefcase came over.

After he came up, his eyes were rolling as he looked at Cao Xiaolian and He Qing. With his back facing He Qing, he greeted Cao Xiaolian.

As they spoke, they acted as if He Qing didn't exist, making them feel slightly awkward.

"Little girl, are you going to school or play in Shanghai?" The man spoke with a thick accent. From time to time, he would use his hand to adjust his glasses, "I do big business in Shanghai. If you have nothing else to do, you can come and play with me."

He Qing frowned and suddenly said loudly, "Sister, come sit with me."

He then glared at the man and purposely said loudly, "Sister, you have to be careful when you're outside. Many people look like you, but I don't know what they're thinking. It's better to be careful."

Cao Xiaolian agreed. The glasses man turned his head and glared at He Qing. After a long while, he finally got up, climbed onto the bed, and lay down. However, he did not get down.

Cao Xiaoliu patted her chest and said, "You were too bold just now. When he looked at you, my palms were sweating nervously."

She lowered her voice, afraid that the man upstairs would hear her.

"What are you afraid of?" He Qing rolled her eyes, "He's guilty of being a bandit, but we're not afraid of his shadow slanting. Besides, there's a police officer in the car, we don't believe that he would dare to do anything."

Cao Xiaolian looked at her protruding stomach and suddenly felt more favorable towards her. The two of them started to talk.

Who knew that something would happen the next morning?

The man started to scream, saying that he lost two thousand yuan in his bag. He also said that he saw He Qing sneaking around his bed in the middle of the night, asking to be searched.

He Qing was so angry that she started to argue with him, but that man would say it loud enough to be sure of He Qing. He even said that she might be pregnant because it was all stolen stuff, and urged everyone to look at their own belongings.

All of a sudden, everyone lowered their heads to check their belongings. He Qing bit her lips in anger, tears welling up in her eyes.

Cao Xiaolian patted He Qing's shoulder and said to the bespectacled man, "Sir, do you have any proof that my sister stole your things?"

The bespectacled man bragged, "If I had any evidence, I would have called the police already."

"But if you harass me, I have proof."

Cao Xiaolian pointed to the bed beside her bed. There was nothing on it.

"Between the three of us, only you can spray perfume. Coincidentally, there is a fragrant smell beside my pillow. I'm guessing that after you were rejected earlier in the day, did you come here to take revenge with a grudge?"

"You're talking nonsense!" The man's face immediately turned red, "I'm the top bunk. I usually sit at the lower bunk. The fragrance on my body is very normal, so you should stop spitting blood."

Actually, Cao Xiaolian didn't have any concrete evidence, but people loved to catch the wind and catch the shadows. Seeing the reversal of the situation, she immediately began to whisper, not caring about whether the fragrance really existed or not, the more she read, the more she felt that this man must have thought of this little girl, this little girl's sister had taught him, and that was why he was framing her so maliciously.

While things were bustling with excitement, the police arrived.

The police first understood what had happened, and then solemnly asked the glasses man if there was any concrete evidence.

The bespectacled man stammered, unable to say a word. At this time, He Qing showed her ID card again, and the policeman saw that it was for the military's sister-in-law. He first saluted, then said seriously to the bespectacled man: He has framed a military sister-in-law.

When the bespectacled man heard this, he was dumbfounded. He quickly apologized, saying that he had remembered wrongly, and asked He Qing to forgive him.

The surrounding crowd knew the truth of the matter and started pointing at the bespectacled man. In the end, the bespectacled man didn't even get to the station and got off early.

"Thank you, Xiao Lian." He Qing was very happy, "If you didn't speak up for me, you wouldn't know, I would have cried."

"What's there to thank me for? You were helping me yesterday, so he bore a grudge against you." Cao Xiaolian said, "But this person is really too disgusting. What a big world."

"That's nothing." He Qing laughed, "Look at it in the future. There will be even weirder people. In any case, they will live as long as they learn. This knowledge will also increase with time."

While chatting and laughing, the two days of journey quickly arrived.

When they arrived at the stop, He Qing greeted the window before turning her head and smiling shyly, "My lover is here to pick me up. Xiao Lian, where are you going? We'll send you there."

"No, no, no." Cao Xiaoliu waved her hands, "How can I be ashamed? I will leave by myself. It might not be along the way."

"You're a girl, this is your first time in Shanghai. You're unfamiliar with this place, even if it's not on the way, you would send me off." As he spoke, He Qing's lover came up to him. He wore a well-ironed military uniform, and was very upright. As soon as he came over, he took the box from He Qing's hands, "Are you alright?"

"Right." He Qing smiled and narrowed her eyes, "That's right. Xiao Lian is accompanying me. Your son is very obedient. He didn't even kick me. He came back safely and comfortably."

He Qing's lover also laughed, "As long as you don't suffer, I'm afraid that you will suffer."

"That's right, sister-in-law. The captain was worried that he couldn't sleep well even after a few nights. He even shouted incorrectly during the day."

A young man behind him was joking. The tall man, who was He Qing's lover, suddenly blushed and said in a low voice, "Keep talking nonsense. Go back and run ten kilometers around the sports field."

"Yes sir!" The young man's expression turned bitter as he looked at He Qing and softened. He begged, "Sister …"

"Calling her sister-in-law is useless, this is an order!"

Cao Xiaolian could not help but laugh. At the same time, she did not expect He Qing to be the wife of the company commander. She could not bear to look at her face.

"Ah, I forgot to introduce him." He Qing walked over and hugged Cao Xiaoling's shoulder. "Her name is Cao Xiaoling, she's from my hometown. It's all thanks to her that she took care of me."

The company commander saluted and said seriously, "Thank you for your help, Comrade Cao Xiaoling."

Cao Xiaolian had never come into contact with a military man in her two lives. She was a bit lost for words when he said, "Actually, I didn't help much. Please don't mention it, Soldier."

It was so awkward that it was hard to say.

He Qing laughed out loud, "Xiao Lian, don't learn from this idiot. Ai, he is my husband, his name is Wang Jianqiang, he is a company commander, everything is good, just that he is too silly."

When Wang Jianqiang heard her words, he scratched his head in embarrassment. He had never been afraid of anything in his life, but who would have thought that such a staunch and staunch man would be afraid of such a delicate young wife?

The young man behind him snickered, but his smile disappeared as he was shocked by the young man's sharp gaze. He could not help but mutter, "He's always been good in front of us. If you have the ability, give it a shot at sister-in-law."

"Little He, you're spouting nonsense again. Hurry up and help Sister Xiao Lian carry the luggage."

He Qing still protected her husband's dignity in front of her subordinates, but in private, hehe!

Little He immediately saluted and hurried over to carry the suitcases. He passionately asked, "Comrade Xiao Lian, please go to the front."

Cao Xiaolian found it hard to refuse. She could only accept it.

The car was outside the train station. It was a military jeep with a green body, which was very eye-catching.

"Sister Xiao Lian, have you found a place to stay?"

Cao Xiaoling was surprised. "I plan to find a hotel. I can find any one of them at the exhibition hall."

After all, she had come this time to set up her own things in the exhibition hall, so she definitely would have to search around the vicinity of the exhibition hall.
