Chapter 261: The Other Side

Seeing that Su Li was silent, the shop assistant trom Linglong Pavilion apologized to Su Ze again.

“I’m really sorry. I was blind to not recognize you. Please forgive me for offending you just now. Please forgive me.”

Su Ze saw the sincerity on the shop assistant’s face and knew that these people were used to looking down on others. They weren’t deliberately targeting him alone. Moreover, his sister would have to do business with them in the future. It wouldn’t be good if things got awkward.

Su Ze smiled at the shop assistant from the Linglong Pavilion. “It’s fine. It’s my fault for not making things clear.”

Seeing that Su Ze did not blame her, the shop assistant from Linglong Pavilion turned to look at Su Li.

This time, Su Li did not say anything. She only said to the shop assistant, “Get someone to inspect the goods and tell your shopkeeper.”

The shop assistant of Linglong Pavilion hurriedly agreed. Then, she ran to find someone to check the goods for Su Li and got someone to invite Yue Yingying.

This time, Su Li did not make soap. She had brought a total of 1,000 items.

These 1,000 were all fragrant soap. Previously, she had said that it would cost 25 copper coins each. These were a total of 2,500 copper coins.

After confirming that there were no problems with the goods, Su Li went to the accountant to settle the bill.

When the accountant saw that it was Su Li, he smiled and asked kindly,

“Madam Su, do you need me to give you some small change?”

Su Li thought for a moment and said, “Alright, do give them to me in small change. Sorry to trouble you!”

Sometimes, it was more convenient to use small change on the streets.

The accountant handed the silver to Su Li with a smile.

Su Ze was dumbfounded. This was the first time he had followed his sister here. In the past, he had thought that his sister was joking or bragging. Now, he finally believed that his sister was a rich woman.

At this moment, a maidservant walked up to Su Li.

“Madam Su, our shopkeeper has something to do outside. She’ll be here in a while. Go upstairs and have a seat.”

Su Li did indeed have something to discuss with Yue Yingying. She nodded and said, “Alright, please lead the way.”

Although she was very familiar with the road, this was someone else’s territory. She should be more obedient.

Su Ze tugged at Su Li and whispered, “Sister, go up. Our ox cart is still outside. I have to guard it!”

Now that this cow was considered a significantly big part of their assets, he had to take good care of it. If he lost it, he probably wouldn’t be able to eat for three months.

When the shop assistant at the side heard Su Ze’s words, he hurriedly said, “Madam Su,both of you can go up and sit. I’ll bring the ox cart to the backyard. It definitely won’t be lost! ”

Their shop had a special place for carriages to be parked. There were also people guarding it so the cart would definitely not be lost. However, that place was usually filled with carriages. This was the first time an ox cart had been parked.

Su Ze looked at Su Li and asked for her opinion. He was really a little worried. He felt that he had to look after her to feel at ease. Otherwise, he would feel uneasy at all times.

Su Li nodded. It would be best if the people from the Linglong Pavilion could help watch over it. It would be convenient for them to shop elsewhere later. They couldn’t just lead the ox cart everywhere, right? Su Ze said to the shop assistant, “You guys have to watch it carefully.”

If they lost it, he would settle the score with them!

The shop assistant nodded repeatedly. “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely get someone to look after it.

After the problem was resolved, the maidservant led Su Li and the others upstairs.

Su Ze was shocked by the imposing decorations upstairs. He couldn’t help but swallow his saliva and didn’t dare to look elsewhere, afraid that others would think that he hadn’t seen the world and embarrass Su Li.

Although He Qingyao and He Qingmu tried their best to restrain themselves, they were still children after all. They could not help but size up and be curious about new things!

Although their eyes were looking around, their hands were not touching everywhere. They looked like they had been taught well by the adults in the family.

Su Li, on the other hand, was natural and unrestrained. She was as calm as if she was at home here. After all, she had not gone to those malls for nothing in her previous life!

The maidservant brought them into a private room and said to Su Li, “Madam Su, sit here and eat some fruits and drink some tea. The shopkeeper will be back soon.”

Su Li nodded slightly. “Alright, go ahead and do your work. Don’t worry about us.”

After the maidservant left, only the four of them were left in the room. Seeing that there were no outsiders, Su Ze’s straightened back relaxed.

“Phew- I’m so tired!”

Su Li glanced at him and smiled. “There are many such things. You have to learn to adapt to this environment and see how others interact and deal with matters.”

Whether it was doing business or starting an official career, there were always things like the ways of the world. If you blindly praised yourself too much or degraded yourself too little, there would be no benefits at all. You had to learn to survive in the cracks.

Su Ze accepted Su Li’s words humbly. He was still far from being good at this, but it didn’t matter. He could work hard to learn.

He Qingyao and He Qingmu looked at the pastries on the table and saw stars. They really wanted to eat them, but they could not. Otherwise, they would be rude.

When Su Li saw them, she stuffed a pastry into each of their hands. “Eat!” He Qingyao and He Qingmu looked at Su Li and said, “Mother, can we really

Su Li nodded and said, “Of course. They are hosting us with it. Since you want to eat it, eat it!”

He Qingyao and He Qingmu received an affirmative reply and started eating the pastries in their hands.

After a while.

Su Li heard the sound of someone going up the stairs. Judging from the footsteps, Yue Yingying should be back.

Someone pushed open the door of the private room.

Su Li stood up and smiled. “Long time no see.”

Yue Yingying pounced on Su Li. “Su Li, you’re finally here. I missed you so much!”

Su Li was not used to Yue Yingying giving her a big hug the moment she arrived, especially since Yue Yingying had changed the way she addressed her. She called her so intimately, as if they were very familiar with each other.

“A day apart feels like three autumns. If you hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have been able to eat,” Yue Yingying said.

Su Li was successfully disgusted by Yue Yingying.

Why didn’t she see that Yue Yingying was such a person in the past?

Perhaps Yue Yingying had always been like this, but she did not realize it! Su Li pushed Yue Yingying away. “Shopkeeper Yue, let’s talk things out!”

Yue Yingying’s eyes lit up as she looked at Su Li. “How did you know that I’ve become a shopkeeper? Could it be that you’ve been secretly paying attention to me? Just like how I’ve been secretly paying attention to you?”

Su Li was speechless.

Why was Yue Yingying’s imagination so wild?!

“You’re thinking too much,” Su Li said.

Yue Yingying felt that Su Li was not fun, so she looked at the two children beside her.

“These are your children, right? They look so much like you. It’s as if they are carved from the same mold.’

“Look at their fair and tender skin and rosy faces. I can’t help but want to bite them..”
