Chapter 207: A New Beginning
After a long journey and several twists and turns, they came to a larger city - Huaicheng.
Before entering the city, Yu Xiaohuan dressed Feng Ling'er as a man, so that others would not worry about it.
Soon after entering the city, there was a lively scene on the side of the road.
Yu Xiaohuan didn't want to see it, but after a casual glance, he knew that the boy was blackmailed by the person opposite, and it was a drama where Xiucai met a soldier. This reminded her of what happened to her in Fucheng, and her anger rose as she jumped straight out of the carriage.
She snatched the money bag from the clamoring man's hand and asked, "You said that this money bag is yours, so do you know how many silver taels are in it?" ”
The clamoring man's eyes flickered, and he said, "This is what my mother gave me before I went out, and I have not counted it." ”
Yu Xiaohuan looked at the polite son again and asked, "Then do you know?" ”
The son replied and said, "There should be twenty taels of silver and fifteen cents in it." ”
Yu Xiaohuan opened the money bag, glanced at it roughly, and asked the clamoring person, "What else do you have to say?" ”
The clamoring seemed to be prepared, shouting, "He stole my wallet, and he must have seen it." ”
Yu Xiaohuan already knew that this person was a thief and shouted to catch the thief, so he debunked it and said: "The clothes that this son wears are made of fine fabrics, and it will cost a few taels of silver to make a set, do you say it is necessary for people to steal your silver?" But the garment you are wearing is made of coarse cloth, can your family come up with twenty taels of silver at once? ”
The clamoring person saw that everyone turned against him one after another to accuse him, so he wanted to run away, but was held down by the quick-eyed Feng Ling'er backhand.
Yu Xiaohuan returned the wallet to Childe. After thanking him, Childe smiled and said, "That's it, let him go." Then he took out two taels of silver from his money bag and put them in the thief's hand, and said, "Go back and find a job to do, and don't do such a lazy thing." ”
After the thief ran away, Feng Ling'er muttered in a low voice, "Is this person stupid?" ”
Yu Xiaohuan almost sneered, this child's temperament really looks a little bit like hers.
Gongzi hugged his fists and said: "In Xia Shangguan Mu, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing when I first came to Huaicheng for a few days, thank you two for helping." ”
Yu Xiaohuan looked at Shangguan Mu with a kind face, and he was new like them, so his good feeling increased a little more, and he said cheekily: "Dare to ask where Shangguan Gongzi lives first?" Our mother and son went to Huaicheng, and if we are not familiar with the place, we hope that the son can give me some advice. ”
Shangguan Mu is a well-informed and well-cultivated person, and said politely: "Don't hide it from the two, I came here with my father when I took office, and now I live in the mansion of the government with my family." ”
"Your father is an official, right?" Yu Xiaohuan froze in her heart, "I originally wanted to ask you, where is there any school where you can ask Jia Fengling'er to go to school for a few days." Now it seems that Shangguan Gongzi doesn't need to go to the school, excuse me, farewell! ”
Yu Xiaohuan and Feng Ling'er were about to get into the carriage, when Shangguan Mu shouted behind them, "Auntie, wait a minute." There is just a lack of an escort here, if this brother doesn't mind, can he be an escort below? ”
Feng Ling'er glanced at her mother, and when she saw that her mother did not object, she happily agreed.
Yu Xiaohuan deliberately rented the house near the official mansion, even if the rent was a little more expensive, but in order to facilitate Feng Ling'er to go to school, she had to be willing to do so.
In order to let Feng Ling'er smoothly become Guan Mu's companion, Yu Xiaohuan repeatedly told her not to show her stuffing, not to expose her identity as a girl in Huaicheng, and also painted Feng Ling'er with thick eyebrows and ugly makeup every day.
Feng Ling'er deliberately found fault and said, "Mother, didn't you say that the child is still young and can't wear makeup?" ”
Yu Xiaohuan said angrily: "This time and that time, if it weren't for this, would you go to school like this?" ”
Feng Ling'er looked at herself in the mirror, there were actually a few more black moles and red acne on her face, and said unhappily: "Then you don't need to paint ugly, you are not glorious to have such an ugly son, right?" ”
Yu Xiaohuan looked at it, but was very satisfied, "If you are so mediocre, there will not be too many people paying attention to you, saving you from being ambitious and not enterprising." ”
After Feng Ling'er went to accompany Shangguan Mu to read, Yu Xiaohuan set up a shop and started a rouge gouache business. With her unique 21st-century makeup techniques and colour matching style, her business quickly took off, and many wealthy ladies in the city liked to come to her small shop to buy rouge gouache and discuss new makeup looks with her from time to time.
However, she is not satisfied with the status quo, her goal is to make her own production, skin care and makeup one-stop service business, and make herself the No. 1 rich woman in Huaicheng. She soon used the first pot of gold she earned in Huaicheng to build a small workshop and began to produce her own rouge gouache, which she produced and sold herself.
Because when selling, Yu Xiaohuan communicated well with customers and understood a lot of customer psychology, so when he opened his own workshop, he launched his own products as he liked. A rich lady from a big family did publicity for her, and her self-produced products soon became the most popular among women in Huaicheng.
By the time she opened her second branch in Huaicheng, her skincare workshop had begun to be built.
When she woke up one day, she also came up with the idea of implanting skincare concepts into her customers, so that customers would become loyal fans of their products.
Her time is leaping forward. The first thing she does when she wakes up every day is to look at the calendar on the bedside, to see if it has jumped for a few days or even months, and then to look at the title deeds and deposits she has hidden.
Ever since she had money, the pain in her chest had disappeared imperceptibly. She didn't bother to think about the heart-wrenching things in Fucheng before, anyway, she had escaped so far, and she wouldn't encounter such a superb again. Of course, sometimes she still encounters things that don't go her way, and whenever she thinks about her current career and money, she will soon be no longer annoyed.
It's a good feeling to be rich, especially a nouveau riche who does his own thing. After feeling better, Yu Xiaohuan felt as if she had become younger, with fewer wrinkles on her face and less gray hair on her head.
But when she thought that she was just a passerby, and the time here was also leaping forward, she felt distressed again, in case she suddenly hung up one day, then all her efforts would be to make wedding dresses for others!
Thinking like this, she bought herself a lot of good-looking, fun and delicious food, and even bought a lot of longevity supplements, and her heart was a little happier.
Her career is smooth all the way, but Feng Ling'er doesn't seem to be going well.
