Shen Qiushui heard disdain in Zhu Zi'an's tone, she was interested in her heart and sat up straight.

"I've never heard you talk about your brother, so tell me about it when you have time today."

Shen Qiushui felt that Zhu Zi'an was really interesting, the store was on the verge of closure last month, and now he was disdainful of his younger brother.

"I don't have much to say about him, and if you want to know, it's okay for me to tell you." Zhu Zi'an put away his precious golden abacus and looked up at Shen Qiushui.

"The wild seed in the county town is the son born to my father and the outer room, and my mother was angry with them."

It has been almost ten years since Zhu Zi'an's mother passed away, and when she talked about it again, Zhu Zi'an seemed very calm, but she still felt resentment towards her father.

"So, why did you get in such a remote place?"

"Why else, my father spoiled his concubine and killed his wife." Zhu Zian said nonchalantly, now he can be said to have no affection for his father.

After that, Zhu Zi'an told Shen Qiushui more details.

For example, the selection of the head of the Zhu family.

Originally, he was the only descendant of the Zhu family, and his mother took out the dowry when the Zhu family was on the verge of bankruptcy, so that the Zhu family survived, so it can be said that most of the Zhu family's property is his mother's.

But since his father took the wild seed, everything has changed.

If it weren't for the pressure of the Zhu family's patriarch above, his father would have been able to directly pass on the position of the head of the family to the wild seed.

Under his father's operation, that wild seed also has the qualifications to compete with him for the position of head of the family.

The Zhu family has been a businessman for generations, and the selection of the head of the family is naturally related to making money, and running a shop is one of the assessments of the head of the family.

His father was afraid of him, fearing that he would settle the ledger when he became the head of the family, so he kept suppressing him.

It was just a matter of assigning him the worst place, and he also gave the secret recipe of the fragrance newly developed by the Zhu family to that wild seed.

Zhu Zi'an struggled for so long, he originally planned to give up this assessment and play other ideas, who would have thought that he could bump into Shen Qiushui.

"I see." Shen Qiushui nodded.

Regarding Zhu Zi'an's matter, Shen Qiushui guessed more or less, and now after listening to what the party said, she completely figured it out.

"Thanks to you this time." Zhu Zi'an rubbed the golden abacus that was hung on his waist again, looked up at Shen Qiushui, who was sitting opposite, and said rare emotional words: "Don't worry, follow me to do business, you won't suffer." ”

"No, no, no, you have to thank your brother if you want to thank you."

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

"The first thing I went to was actually the Zhu family's rouge shop in the county seat, but your brother ......" Shen Qiushui paused, raised his hand and touched the birthmark that was covered on the right corner of his forehead.

Zhu Zi'an's gaze also followed Shen Qiushui's movements.

Shen Qiushui smiled, shook his head, put it down, and continued: "Your brother thinks I'm ugly and kicks me out of the shop." ”

"Then he's really blind." Zhu Zi'an didn't miss any opportunity to belittle the wild seed, and scolded in disgust.

"yes, I think so too."

"yes, don't take that idiot's words, you're not that ugly." Zhu Zi'an stared at Shen Qiushui's face for a moment.

The woman's skin in front of her was white and tender, and the blue-black birthmark on her forehead was mostly covered, like a flaw on a beautiful jade. Xu is the reason why he has applied lipstick, his lips are moist, and it makes people itch.

When Zhu Zi'an said this, Shen Qiushui wanted to reach out and touch the corner of his forehead again.

Her birthmark was different from ordinary birthmarks, the birthmark was pitted, and her hands were very rough to the touch.

Although Shen Qiushui was not a peerless beauty in her previous life, her appearance was not bad, and she had never been scolded as an ugly ghost, she had been in this world for so long and had never looked in the mirror, in fact, she didn't know what her ugly appearance was.

However, looking at the reactions of the people around him, it is not difficult to guess that it must be extremely ugly.

She looked around the backyard, her heart moved slightly, and she asked Zhu Zi'an for a bronze mirror.

Bronze mirrors were a rarity, and it was the first time she had seen them.

On the stone table, a figure appeared in a waxy bronze mirror.

Shen Qiushui looked at himself in the bronze mirror, his eyes suddenly widened, and the whole person looked a little sluggish.

The more she looks at this face, the more she looks like her past life!

"If you like it, you can take this bronze mirror back, I don't need it." Zhu Zi'an saw Shen Qiushui staring at the bronze mirror motionless, thinking that she was a rare thing, and spoke very generously.

Shen Qiushui withdrew his gaze from the bronze mirror and glanced at Zhu Zi'an.

didn't be polite to Zhu Zi'an, and directly picked up the bronze mirror that was about the same size as her head.

"Okay, I'll keep this bronze mirror, and just buckle it directly in my divide."

After speaking, Shen Qiushui put away all the things on the stone table.

Looking at the lipstick in the palm of his hand, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

"You can make a few more of this lipstick, and when the time comes to sell whitening cream, use it as a giveaway, limited to the first ten customers, what do you think of this idea?"

Whitening cream is a new thing in this world, although the effect is good, but no one who is the first to eat crabs, who dares to buy it.

It's best to use this lipstick to open the gap.

How many women can say no to lipstick?

Zhu Zi'an's eyes lit up: "Very good!" ”

"I'm good at this color, but it's lighter for others, you can just make it deeper."

Shen Qiushui had already put everything away, she stood up, "It's not too early, I should go back, I gave you all the formulas, how do you do it yourself." ”

After speaking, she raised her hand towards Zhu Zi'an and turned to leave.

Shen Qiushui went back directly to Huaishu Village.

Today, the sky is overcast, drizzling, and the people who often chatted under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village are nowhere to be seen.

Holding the oil-paper umbrella that came from Zhu Zi'an's side, Shen Qiushui quickened his pace and walked home.

But when he walked to Tiankan, he met an acquaintance.

It's Aunt Li from the same village.

The ridge is very narrow, but this is the only way to the end of the village.

Shen Qiushui took a step into the ground and made way for the people who came.

Who knew that Aunt Li was not in a hurry, but opened her eyes and looked into Shen Qiushui's arms.

"Shen Qiushui, what are you holding in your arms?"

Shen Qiushui looked down at the thing in his arms.

She walked in a hurry, and the bronze mirror was directly held in her arms.

Although the bronze mirror is a rare object in the village, it is not to the point of being unrecognizable.

Knowing that the other party was knowingly asking, Shen Qiushui did not answer.

"You can't get by?" She looked up.

"What you have in your arms is a bronze mirror, did you steal my mother-in-law's money to buy it?!" Aunt Li saw that Shen Qiushui didn't talk, so she simply opened her mouth directly, and she said earnestly: "My mother-in-law is kind enough to take you in, and you repay her like this?!" ”

"I didn't steal any money!" Shen Qiushui frowned, and he didn't understand why Aunt Li would talk about this.
