Chapter 191: Grand Opening Day
The matter of Dahu's schooling was settled, and they planned to find a suitable school for him after the grand opening. The next day, the entire family woke up early, dressed in brand-new clothes, and headed towards Ningshui Street. Several shops on Ningshui Street had already opened their doors early in the morning. When Shuyu arrived at the shop, Da Niu happened to be opening the front gate. The old lady had previously calculated the auspicious timing, and it was precisely the time to open the shop. Da Niu laid out firecrackers, and snacks were prepared as well. The owners of the neighboring shops were all looking in their direction. Most of the surrounding businesses were skeptical about the Lu Family opening a clothing store. Especially those who had visited the shop the day before yesterday noticed that there were only a few pieces of clothing. Although the shop's decoration was unique and comfortable, what use was it for a clothing store if it didn't even have enough merchandise? Upon further inquiry, they learned that the Lu Family had come from a small village nearby. They had no previous experience in business or any influential connections. Even just half a month ago, they were struggling to secure their basic needs. The shop owners were speechless and didn't believe the Lu Family's shop would last long. Of course, even though they didn't think much of it, they knew that maintaining good relations was important in business. The nearby shops sent over two packages of pastries as a gesture of celebration. As the auspicious time approached, Lu Dasong and Lu Sanzhu's couple also arrived. As soon as Lu Sanzhu arrived, he complained to Shuyu, "I wanted to come and help yesterday, but my mother refused, saying there wasn't enough space in the mule cart. Why couldn't Da Niu just stay home? As a son, I'm filial to my mother, yet she still doesn't appreciate it." Before he could finish his words, the old lady twisted his ear and scolded, "On this joyous day, don't bring bad luck upon us." Lu Sanzhu quickly responded, "Mother, I won't dare, I won't dare." The old lady snorted coldly and asked, "Where are Da Bao and Bao Ya?" "I was afraid there would be too many people, so I sent them to their grandmother's house." The couple from the third branch arrived, as did the couple from the first branch. Li Shi wanted Er Niu and Lan Hua to come as well, hoping they could take advantage of any opportunities. However, Lu Dasong disagreed, and she had no choice but to accept it. Last time, Zhang Shu's words still had an impact on the two of them. Lu Dasong hasn't been listening to her ideas much lately, afraid that others would say he has no opinion, letting a woman be the decision-maker at home. Li Shi didn't dare to provoke him at this crucial moment and could only reluctantly follow Lu Dasong. This was Li Shi's first time coming here. She originally thought it was just a small shop selling a few pieces of cloth, but she didn't expect the shop to be located on Ningshui Street. Moreover... it was so beautifully renovated. Li Shi felt a pang of sourness in her heart. The second family had truly prospered. Why wasn't it her daughter who was taken away back then? If she had returned after more than a decade, she could have had such a prosperous-looking shop as well. Li Shi had thoroughly observed everything inside and out, and she suddenly asked with some surprise, "Sister-in-law, is this all the clothing you have? What kind of business are you running? Can it make money?" It was the first time she had seen someone opening a shop with just a few pieces of clothing. Ruan Shi was not good with words and just smiled, saying, "We will continue making more in the future." "If you can only make a few garments a day, why don't I help you? I also know how to make clothes," Li Shi offered, of course, expecting to be paid for her work. ~~~ Today was a busy day with moving, so the foolish author could only update this much. I'll try to update more tomorrow. (End of this chapter)
