Chapter 24

Shopkeeper Liu has a bad heart, I'm afraid the county magistrate's wife has some trouble with her own lady, and now she's looking for her.

Before he could respond, he heard Yao Shu's voice: "Madam came to the store, it is really full of splendor! Shopkeeper Liu, why don't you send someone to call me, so you can go shopping with Madam, choose carefully How many pieces of cloth?"

Saying that, Yao Shu came out from the compartment behind the counter with a calm demeanor, as if he didn't realize that the county magistrate's wife was here to ask for trouble.

Yao Shu was tall and slender, with a small and non-aggressive face, and his smiling face made it hard for people to feel disgusted: "The new fabrics in the store, how many designs and colors do you like for Madam?"

The county magistrate's wife couldn't say anything to refuse for a while.

Originally, she was thinking of finding Yao Shu's bad luck, but when she stood in front of her, her slender waist looked unbearable under the tailored clothes, her bucket waist...

With this kind of comparison, the county magistrate's wife said unforgivingly: "I said Miss Yao, this woman is married, so she just stays at home, messes around all day, and is not afraid of others seeing the joke?"

Yao Shu was not angry either.

Opening a door to do business in the modern age, one hears a lot more ugly words than this one, and she doesn't care about these innocuous words.

Yao Shu laughed and said, "It's not as good as my wife's life, so I can only run around more, and I also subsidize the family to support a few children."

The county magistrate's wife is not bad in nature, she used to be the daughter of a scholar and the apple of her parents' eyes, but she married the wrong person, and she wasted her life.

Watching over a flamboyant husband all day long, one must be on guard. There are more and more fresh girls in the backyard every day, and after giving birth to several children one after another, even her figure is slowly losing shape.

Knowing that her husband has taken a fancy to Yao Shu again, it's impossible for her to have a good face towards Yao Shu?
It's just that Yao Shu mentioned the child, which happened to touch her heart - it's not easy to raise a child, and she is a widow, so life may be even more difficult.

She paused, and didn't say any more harsh words: "Those who have a good life and a bad life, live on their own."

Yao Shu nodded, showing a touch of emotion on his face, and said, "Thank you Madam for your understanding."

The county magistrate's wife felt a little uncomfortable, but when she thought of her reason for coming, her face turned cold again, and she only warned: "There is no problem in doing business, it's just that people's hearts must always be on the right path, and don't touch those ghosts." Evil thoughts!"

Yao Shu sighed, and said in a warm voice, "If you want to commit a crime, why don't you have excuses? Madam is a discerning person, so she can understand."

Seeing that Yao Shu didn't intend to lie at all, the county magistrate's wife finally nodded and eased her expression.

"Madam, do you want to have a look at the rouge in the store?" The other party put away the thorns all over his body, and Yao Shu began to sell his own rouge, "I asked someone to bring it back from the south a few days ago. The daughter of the official family likes it, you are used to using good things, and you have a good eye, why don't you give us the palm of your hand?"

As she spoke, she took the sampler from the counter, opened the lid with her own hands, and presented it in front of the woman.

The county magistrate's wife lightly dug a little bit with her fingernails, put it on the back of her hand, and spread it evenly with her index finger. The light and bright color evenly spread on the skin, showing the color of sunset.

She couldn't help but nodded and said, "It's not bad. I heard there are only twenty boxes?"

Yao Shu put away the box with a smile, and said, "There are only twenty boxes of ordinary rouge, but since you are here, there are naturally better ones."

As she spoke, she whispered something to Shopkeeper Liu, and the shopkeeper turned around and went to the compartment, and after a while, she came out with a small box in her hand.

Yao Shu took it and handed it to the county magistrate's wife, and said with a smile, "This box is for you."

Rouge was no more than the size of a palm, and the box was lying in the palm of the hand, and the delicate lines immediately caught people's attention firmly.

"The carving on this... is a lovebird?"

Looking at the birds taking off side by side, her expression was a little dazed, as if she had returned to the time when she was about to get married——

Red and joy are everywhere, her cage and dowry are all made of the best ebony, and there are lovebirds carved on it that symbolize beauty.

It's just that the rouge box in her hand is more delicate.

As if not seeing the look on her face, Yao Shu said: "The county magistrate has a deep affection for the wife, there is nothing more suitable than this lovebird. This rouge is for you, and I hope you will grow old with him forever."

The magistrate's wife smiled self-deprecatingly: "You can talk."

The two chatted for a while, then the county magistrate's wife got up and left the cloth village. The three children... If there is any trouble, just come to the county magistrate's mansion to find me, anyway, I have also attended your child's hundred-day banquet."

Yao Shu was not too polite, and said kindly: "The little girl is bothering you. Apart from the rouge business, we also have other businesses related to women's beauty. I hope you will join us in the future!"

Finally, the upper-society gap opened up a bit.

After seeing off the big Buddha, shopkeeper Liu murmured to Yao Shu, "I don't know why she came here... I think the magistrate's wife's tigress name can't be removed, so I thought it was just asking for trouble. But you just left so unsalty?"
