Shu Yu smiled when she saw the lady.
“Boss, I want these three bottles of wine. How much is it?”
The woman raised her head and smiled, “Let me see.”
She took the bottles of wine and looked at them while calculating on an abacus.
Shu Yu leaned slightly against the counter. Seeing that the other party was done with her calculations, she took out two strings of copper coins and placed them on the counter.
After paying, she smiled and asked, “Are you the second young mistress of the Jiang family?”
The woman was taken aback. Her hand that was about to take the copper coins paused slightly. She raised her head and looked at Shu Yu in confusion, ‘You
“My surname is Lu, and I became friends with the second young lady of the Ding family by chance. Yuehua has mentioned you to me before, and she is full of praise for you.”
Speaking of which, they were quite fated. She was the second daughter, Ding Yuehua was the second daughter of the Ding family, and Madam Deng was the second young mistress of the Jiang family.
They were all second in line.
When Madam Deng heard Ding Yuehua’s name, she looked at Shu Yu with a much friendlier expression, “So you’re Yuehua’s friend. I’ll have to give you a discount.”
As she spoke, she was about to push back the copper coins on the counter. “Don’t. I didn’t mention her to get a discount. I just happened to need to buy wine anyway. I remember Yuehua saying that you and your husband are honest in doing business and that the products are good, plus I was also curious about you, so I came straight over to buy wine.”
Shu Yu didn’t take the copper coins. She picked up the three bottles of wine and said frankly, “Alright, I’ll be leaving first since I’ve bought the things I need. When you’re free, you and Yuehua should come and chat with me. By the way, I opened a shop on Ningshui Street. Come and visit when you have time.” With that, she left with the bottles of wine.
Madam Deng was stunned and quickly ran out from behind the counter.
She wanted to call out to Shu Yu, but just as she opened her mouth, a person rushed over. The person did not look where he was going and bumped straight into Shu Yu.
He immediately frowned and questioned her unhappily, “Are you blind? Can’t you see that I…”
Halfway through his sentence, he looked up and saw Shu Yu’s face. His eyes immediately lit up and his tone changed as he smiled and said, “Miss, are you okay? Did I hurt you just now? Oh my, I’m really sorry. I was in a hurry and didn’t look where I was going.”
The man was about to reach out to pull her when Shu Yu immediately took two steps back. There was a hint of disgust in her eyes. She didn’t even bother to talk to him and nimbly walked around him.
The man’s expression changed. He turned around and was about to chase after her.
“Hey, wait a moment, Miss!”
Seeing that he was about to stop Shu Yu, Madam Deng quickly stepped forward to stop him, “Why are you here? Is there something you need from your second brother? Come in quickly, your second brother is inside.”
Third Young Master Jiang wanted to push her away impatiently, but before his hand could touch her, Jiang Yi came out and called out to him loudly, “Third Brother!”
Third Young Master Jiang frowned. It was too late to stop Shu Yu now as she had gotten into the mule carriage and drove away.
Third Young Master Jiang was a little angry. He turned around and wanted to scold Madam Deng, but then he thought of something and quickly restrained his expression. Instead, he smiled at Madam Deng and said, “Second
Sister-in-law, who was that girl just now? What’s her name and where does she live?”
When Madam Deng saw him , how could she not guess what he was thinking?
This person used to be a dandy. He relied on the Jiang family’s power in Jiangyuan County and had a good relationship with the original county magistrate.. Who knew how many girls from good families he had toyed with?
