Chapter 174: Chapter 174: The Embarrassed Qin Xue
Translator: 549690339
Qin Xue thought of her best friend An Xiaochen, who was already the vice president of a listed company at such a young age!
And Chu Beiying, who always liked to go into the mountains to collect herbs. Qin Xue really missed them!
Did they get sad when they found out she had died? Would they miss her?
Qin Xue shook her head to bring her drifting thoughts back.
Qin Xue then went on to talk about some other sales methods and techniques.
They continued training until five-thirty in the afternoon, which was dinner time.
Qin Xue figured she had to go send the letter later, so she couldn’t delay for too long.
But Qin Xue completely forgot that the post office was already closed at this time.
So she thought it was impossible for her to send the letter today.
Because in the future, electronic products were widespread, and all contacts were through mobile phones, WeChat, and emails.
Who would still write letters by hand? So Qin Xue didn’t know the post office’s working and closing hours.
It wasn’t until they walked out of the factory and she told Fang Hong she was going to mail a letter that Qin Xue realized how wrong she was.
She wondered how she could forget this important situation!
But you couldn’t really blame her, who told Qin Xue to be born in a peaceful and prosperous era?
Even when writing essays about letters, Qin Xue only wrote them in her book and never actually mailed them.
So she really didn’t understand these details.
“Sister-in-law, what time does the post office usually open and close?” Qin Xue thought she could only mail the letter tomorrow morning.
“This postage stamp is eight cents per piece, and the working hours are from eight in the morning to five in the afternoon.” Fang Hong often went to mail letters, so she knew very well.
“Actually, you don’t have to go to the post office to mail a letter.
After writing the letter and attaching the postage stamp, you can give it to the mailman when you meet him.
He will then help you send the letter out.” Fang Hong thought of the times when she saw mailmen delivering letters and gave them her letters directly.
“Can it really be done like this? Don’t you have to put it in the mailbox to mail it?” Qin Xue remembered that there were many places where letters had to be sent.
Firstly, the post office staff had to sort them out and distribute them accordingly.
“You don’t necessarily have to put it in the mailbox. The mailman also has to go back to the post office to get letters, right?
When you give it to him, he will bring it back, and they will mail it for you at that time.
You must have misunderstood my meaning. I didn’t mean the mailman could directly send the letter to the person you wanted to mail it to.
Instead, if you give the letter to him, you don’t have to specifically make a trip to the post office to mail it.”
Fang Hong smiled as she explained to Qin Xue.
“Oh, 1 get it.” Qin Xue was really embarrassed.
It was really inconvenient in this backward era without mobile phones, WeChat, or email.
Fang Hong looked at the embarrassment on Qin Xue’s face and laughed out loud.
Qin Xue felt increasingly embarrassed, and said to Fang Hong, “Sister-in-law, don’t laugh at me. Am 1 really that stupid?”
“No, not at all. Where are you stupid? 1 just never thought that there would be something you didn’t know how to do, Qin Xue. It’s just a bit surprising.”
Fang Hong really didn’t expect that the smart and knowledgeable Qin Xue would not know such a small detail.
“Hehe, I’ve never traveled far from home since I was a child, and I’ve never written a letter to anyone! What I know is what the teachers taught me, and what I learned from books.
Before I got married, I loved reading. People at home spoiled me, so they would collect some books for me to read.
Because I read a lot, I know a lot.” Qin Xue couldn’t let anyone other than Chu Molin know about her secret that was different from ordinary people.
Why did she say that? Because Qin Xue was sure that Molin loved her and wouldn’t do anything to hurt her.
But she couldn’t guarantee that for other people.
Because you never knew what people would do when faced with interests!
Therefore, Qin Xue could only attribute her knowledge to her extensive reading, and that’s how she knew so much.
With this explanation, no one could find any fault with it. It was a very safe explanation..
