Chapter 224: Ah Xiang and Her Daughter Arrive

 Chapter 224: Ah Xiang and Her Daughter Arrive

Shu Yu had already taken the old lady to the shop in Ningshui Street. Yiren Pavilion was as quiet as ever. Including today, there had been no business for three consecutive days. The members of the Lu family were extremely anxious now. Just the day before the grand opening, they were excited because Shu Yu had earned over two hundred taels of silver. But these three days felt like a sudden dousing of cold water, leaving them feeling disheartened. To make matters worse, the shopkeepers and assistants from nearby stores were mocking them. Outwardly, they didn't dare to say anything because they recognized Lord Xiang, but secretly, their taunts and sarcasm were reaching new heights. Even Ruan Shi's sewing speed had slowed down in the past two days, and her expression had become increasingly worried. Among the Lu family, perhaps only Shu Yu had no sense of urgency. She calmly and methodically arranged everything. In the past two days, she had let Da Ya practice makeup on herself and Ruan Shi. It had to be said that Da Ya was very talented in this area. She quickly got the hang of it and could create a well-done makeup look. She could even come up with her own ideas for improvement. Shu Yu had great confidence in her ability to take charge in the future. In addition to that, she had finalized the hiring of staff. Her initial encounter with Deng Shi had also gone smoothly. Shu Yu was implementing the goals she had set for herself one by one. Next on the list was Da Hu's enrollment in school. However, according to Tang Wenqian, it wasn't the right time yet. She planned to first understand the situation of that school. If it was indeed good, then waiting a little longer wouldn't hurt. But during dinner, seeing the ongoing anxiety among the Lu family, Shu Yu reassured them, "Don't worry. Didn't we have a premonition before? If we still don't have any customers in the next couple of days, why don't we go door-to-door to promote ourselves?" Shu Yu felt that the time was about right. Firstly, miss Ding's matter had settled, so Ding Yuehua was likely to come. Secondly, Dr. Xu's scar-removing ointment had already been formulated, and he would definitely spread the word while promoting it. Shu Yu predicted that within two more days, customers would definitely start coming in. Now, the concern was mainly about not having enough clothes. Fortunately, Ah Xiang and Fu Xiangdi would be coming tomorrow. Early the next morning, the Lu family woke up as usual. Even if there was no business, they still energetically opened the shop. However, what the Lu family didn't expect was that they were early, but Ah Xiang and her daughter were even earlier. Taking advantage of the early dawn, the two of them left Ruan Village and arrived in the county town. When they reached the city gate, it was still closed. "They both carried large and small bags and stood at the front of the queue. Therefore, by the time the two of them entered the city, many shops along the street were still closed. Ah Xiang had already heard Shu Yu mention that Yiren Pavilion was located at the end of Ning Shui Street. So they walked all the way to the end of the street, and when they were close, they began to ask the shopkeepers along the street. As soon as the shopkeepers heard that they wanted to go to Yiren Pavilion, they looked at them strangely. Ah Xiang thought that she didn't look too good carrying all those bags, so she couldn't help but step back. Who knew that the shopkeeper would actually give her directions, saying, ''Yiren Pavilion, it's at the very end. You'll see it as soon as you get there. It has the largest entrance, and they have the least amount of clothes inside.'' Ah Xiang thanked him and was about to leave when the shopkeeper asked again, ''What are you going to Yiren Ge for? You're not trying to join the Lu family, are you?'' Anyway, they didn't look like customers. Special thanks to these patrons for their support!!!
