Chapter 14: Confrontation
Hearing the eldest brother's words, Helan Cheng's face turned pale, and he hurriedly waved his hand to explain, "I didn't look down on my sister-in-law!" My sister-in-law is so powerful, how can I look down on her? I was just...... I just don't want my sister to go out and show her face. ”
After speaking, he looked at He Wanyue in embarrassment, but he only dared to glance at it, and then lowered his head.
Although he didn't say much, He Wanyue and He Lianjun still understood what he meant.
Because of the events of that year, in order to protect Ah Cheng, Wanyue's body hurt her foundation, and she would be out of breath if she walked around, let alone go to the street to do business.
It's just that he was in front of his sister-in-law, and he didn't know how to speak.
Hearing this explanation, He Lianjun's face was a little better.
He said: "I know you're worried about Wanyue, but whether or not to go out to do business is Wanyue's own business, and you have to listen to her." Just like your sister-in-law, although she is my mother-in-law, I have never interfered with her. ”
He Lancheng listened to the eldest brother's explanation, nodded thoughtfully, and looked at He Wanyue again, and did not continue to stop her.
However, He Lancheng also has his own little insistence, "Since the second sister is going to do business, then I will accompany her." Anyway, I haven't been to the academy yet, but I have time. ”
"If you're willing to accompany me, I'd be more than happy." He Wanyue said gently, "It's just that there are many women in that shop, can you handle it?" ”
Although Helan Cheng is only seven or eight years old, he is a small ghost, and he is the most annoying to deal with women every day, if it weren't for Yu Qingzhi's appearance to change his prejudice, he may still dislike all women except his second sister as he did at the beginning.
Sure enough, thinking of such a scene, He Lancheng couldn't help but feel excited.
He rubbed the goosebumps on his hands and said, "I'll just take an embroidery, it shouldn't be anything, right?" ”
After all, compared to his sister's body, he would rather endure dealing with those women.
"Now that you've made a decision, I'm going to tell my sister-in-law, and I won't regret it when the time comes." He Wanyue finally asked him.
"You say, I will never regret it!" Helan Cheng patted his chest and assured like a man.
The only person in the family who opposed it also changed his position, and the matter of opening an embroidery village for He Wanyue was decided.
So from the second day, Yu Qingzhi handed over the Shenshui incense shop to Erni, and he took Helan Cheng to learn to do accounts in the store in the morning, and went out to see the decoration of the incense shop in the afternoon, looking for a suitable shop to open an embroidery village.
Erni knew this, she was excited, and asked, "Sister Qingzhi, do you want me to say hello to the girls in advance and let them send the embroidery to you first?" ”
Yu Qingzhi has been so busy these days that he has really forgotten about this stubble.
"Look at my brain, I don't think about it! Then I bother you to help me say it, so that if they don't want to send the embroidery to others, they will send it to me, and I will accept it as long as there is a suitable one. Yu Qingzhi smiled and took her hand and handed it over to her.
Erni didn't disappoint Yu Qingzhi, but after two days of hard work, many people found the Agarwood Incense Shop and asked if they wanted to collect embroidery.
This movement caused a lot of trouble, and even the customers in the incense shop knew that Yu Qingzhi planned to reopen the embroidery shop.
Isn't this obviously against the Zhou family embroidery workshop?
For a while, there were more and more people watching the excitement, and from time to time they ran to the shops on both sides, wanting to inquire about the gossip.
But Yu Qingzhi's mouth is stricter than anyone else, and she can't ask for news from her mouth, and Erni was also told by Yu Qingzhi in advance that she is not allowed to talk about her own affairs, so these people can only go to the next door to inquire.
Seeing so many guests pouring in from her embroidery workshop, Zhou Niangzi was so happy at first.
But after looking at it for a long time, these people only asked questions and didn't buy things, she suddenly understood the purpose of these people coming here, she was angry and stood at the door of the agarwood incense shop, pointed to the door of the store and scolded, but was brought back by Erni with a broom.
The embarrassed Zhou Niangzi turned over and sat on the steps of her house, the hair on her forehead was scattered by the broom in Erni's hand, and it hung down to her ears, so it was not ugly.
"The surname is Yu, you wait for me! If you dare to ruin my business, don't even think about doing this business! ”
Zhou Niangzi pointed to Yu Qingzhi's shop and scolded the last sentence, and then rushed home angrily.
There is no good show to watch, and everyone has no heart to stay in the Zhoujia embroidery workshop, and in the blink of an eye, the embroidery workshop is empty, only the guys are left looking at each other, which can be described as extremely deserted.
But they knew that the next day the guests would still come over to see the excitement.
But when those guests came to the Zhoujia embroidery workshop the next day, they found that there was a wooden wall between the Zhoujia embroidery workshop and the Shenshui incense shop!
Looking at the sawdust on the top that had not been smoothed, everyone realized that this wall was made by Zhou Niangzi overnight, in order to prevent guests from going to the Agarwood incense shop from her!
Zhou Niangzi looked at the wall triumphantly, and scolded Yu Qingzhi through the wall: "Little hoof, I see how you do business now!" The old lady gives you face, you don't want it, and you don't want to ask for face from me in the future! It's a big deal, don't do business, I see how long your poor ghost He family can last! ”
She pinched her waist by the wall and scolded vigorously, but the guests behind her who saw her shrewd scolding the street also shrunk their heads and left.
Who knows if it will be herself who will mess with her next time? They are here to buy, not to suffer.
In the Agarwood incense shop across the wall, although there are many fewer guests, Yu Qingzhi did not scold like Zhou Niangzi, and still had a close and tranquil smile on her face, which made people feel at home.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were no customers in the store, Erni leaned over to Yu Qingzhi and asked, "Sister Qingzhi, aren't you sad that we have so many fewer customers?" ”
"Of course it's sad." Yu Qingzhi said sadly with a smile on his face, and finally even gritted his teeth and didn't forget to smile, "If I had known that she would be so crazy, I would definitely buy the shop in front of her!" ”
"And you're still smiling so happily?" Erni didn't understand it more and more.
"You don't understand, the more this time we have to laugh more and more." Yu Qingzhi's eyes narrowed, trying to make her smile look genuine.
At this time, a guest came to settle the bill, Yu Qingzhi smiled, found a copper plate, and his voice was still sweet, "There will be new incense pills in the shop next month, welcome to come again next time!" ”
Seeing this, the guest couldn't help but sigh: "Shopkeeper Yu is really doing great things, you can still laugh at this time, it's really courageous!" ”
"I feel sad in my heart, but I know that these things are someone else's fault, and I shouldn't be angry with you. You come into the store to buy something, and of course you have to receive the best service. ”
Yu Qingzhi perfectly applied modern services to the ancient store, and the guests who said it sighed to the extreme, and then remembered Zhou Niangzi and Yu Qingzhi.
When the guests left, Erni looked at Yu Qingzhi with a shocked face, and she was simply dumbfounded.
She didn't expect Sister Qingzhi to be able to turn defeat into victory in this way, it was really unseen and unheard of!
Under the leadership of Yu Qingzhi, Erni gradually recovered her mood and no longer entangled in the wall of Zhou Niangzi.
So for a while, in addition to the contradiction between Zhou Niangzi and Yu Qingzhi, the excellent service attitude of the Agarwood Incense Shop also spread in the town, and many people didn't even come to buy incense, but simply came to see this kind of service.
- Of course, since they entered this shop, Yu Qingzhi would not let them go out empty-handed, and when they left, everyone had something more or less in their hands.
Everyone didn't expect that after Zhou Niangzi erected that wall and blocked the source of customers from Yu Qingzhi's store, she would make more money than before!
And Yu Qingzhi planned to use this money to take down the shop next door to his incense shop near the river and use it to make an embroidery village for He Wanyue.
That shop was not Zhu Tianci's, before Yu Qingzhi came down, the store originally sold sugar water, but unfortunately there are fewer and fewer people in the town who love to eat sugar water, and the shopkeeper has to surrender the rent if he can't do it.
On the day when the shopkeeper quit the lease, he met Yu Qingzhi coming to visit the door next door, and the owner of the store recognized Yu Qingzhi at a glance and walked up to greet her excitedly.
"Isn't this the shopkeeper Yu? It's been a long time! "The proprietor of the shop is a kind fat man, born with a smiling face, and when he speaks, he smiles a little, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
Seeing this, Yu Qingzhi couldn't help but sigh, even the smiling lips cut out by modern people who have plastic surgery are not as natural as this person looks!
She greeted her with the same smile, "You're the owner of this shop, aren't you?" Are you here to collect rent today? ”
"Where? The original shopkeeper couldn't do it, so I came to refund him the rent. ”
Let's talk about it, the proprietor introduced himself, and Yu Qingzhi knew that his surname was Fang, and the old man who opened the sugar water shop was surnamed Hu, and his name was also extremely blessed, called Hu Lu.
As soon as Yu Qingzhi heard this name, he praised it, "Shopkeeper Hu is really a good name!" With this name, you don't have to worry about doing business anywhere. ”
Hearing her say this, Hu Lu didn't have much smile on his face, and sighed: "If only I could really borrow your auspicious words." ”
Boss Fang is also an open person, and seeing Yu Qingzhi's temperament, he conveniently urged Hu Lu to say: "If you can do business like Shopkeeper Yu, you won't have to worry about having no guests?" Yu has been in charge for so long, why don't you bring her a bowl of sugar water to taste? ”
Only then did Hu Lu react, and laughed again and again, "Look at my mouth, there is no Boss Fang and Shopkeeper Yu who can speak." The sugar water is freshly made today, if the shopkeeper Yu doesn't dislike it, you might as well taste it, and then bring a few bowls back to make it. ”
He was so enthusiastic, Yu Qingzhi couldn't refuse, so he took the bowl he handed over, and put his boiled sugar water in it.
This syrup is made with honey, and there are boiled fruits such as hawthorn and ginkgo biloba.
It's just that the hawthorn and ginkgo seem to be overcooked, and the color is not bright at all.
Yu Qingzhi knew at a glance that he couldn't get home, so he tried to taste it, and sure enough, the honey was too sweet, the hawthorn was too sour, and the ginkgo fruit still had a bit of bitterness.
And ginkgo fruit is poisonous, adults have to eat less, let alone children, he put three or four ginkgo fruits in a bowl, where will others buy it?
But this is all Yu Qingzhi's own thoughts, after all, this shopkeeper Hu has been making sugar water for so many years, and Yu Qingzhi is not easy to rashly put forward opinions.
But Boss Fang was sharp-eyed, and he could see at a glance that Yu Qingzhi had something to say, so he gave Shopkeeper Hu a look, and after Shopkeeper Hu left, he himself took the lead in speaking, saying: "Dissatisfied with Shopkeeper Yu, I have also eaten Shopkeeper Hu's sugar water, maybe I'm too old to eat anything too sweet, I always feel that this sugar water is sticky." ”
"Hmm...... Maybe it's because the individual has a personal appetite. Yu Qingzhi coped with it and did not continue.
How could she not see what Boss Fang meant, this was to let herself point out Hu Lu.
But Zhu Tianci spent a hundred taels of silver to buy her recipes, and she was not kind enough to point out a stranger for free, who knows if it is a tiger for trouble?
Shopkeeper Fang also saw her hesitation, and immediately clapped his hand, "Shopkeeper Yu, I heard that you have been looking for a shop recently, as long as you are willing to guide the shopkeeper Hu, I will rent this shop to you at the lowest price!" ”
