Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 40 The Rouge Shop Opens

"But once you lose the money, the Lu family will be doomed." Third Uncle Lu was still not at ease. With the 100 taels of silver, their Lu family can also have no worries about food and drink, so why take any more risks.

All the property of the Lu family depends on Lu Nanzhi. If she falls, the entire Lu family will collapse. Seeing that the Lu family is getting better and better, how can Uncle Lu be willing to go back to the old days.

Hearing this, Lu Nanzhi curled his lips into a smile: "Don't worry, Third Uncle, I'm sure if I dare to do this."

"Nanzhi, this matter is no small matter." Grandma Lu told her solemnly.

Although she knew that Lu Nanzhi had good luck, she was still afraid of failure.

Lu Nanzhi assured: "Grandma, this money will be considered as my loan. If you earn it back, it will be for the Lu family, and if you lose it, it will be for me."

Grandma Lu nodded in agreement: "In this case, then do as you said."

Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu still wanted to say something, but they stopped under Grandma Lu's eyes.

Rouge shop officially opened.

Today she wore a light blue dress, which made her more beautiful and gentle.

There were two red lanterns hanging on the eaves, firecrackers were going off, everyone in the Lu family was here today, shopkeeper Liu came with two generous gifts.

"Congratulations, Ms. Lu, for the successful opening. This is Liu's thought, and I hope you don't dislike it." Shopkeeper Liu waved his hand and asked the people behind him to bring things up.

Lu Nanzhi cupped his hands to thank him, then took the things and invited him into the room.

One after another, people were attracted by the sound of firecrackers, and when they saw the shop, they walked in curiously.

On the first day of opening, Lu Nanzhi had a considerable income.

That night, at the dinner table, Third Aunt Lu pinched Uncle Lu hard, and signaled him to speak with her eyes.

Even though Uncle Lu was very dissatisfied, he still hesitated and said: "Mother, you see that Nanzhi's shop is so busy, and she is the only one there. Why don't you let Qinghe and her mother help, and the whole family can take care of you."

Lu Nanzhi put down his chopsticks, smiled and said to Grandma Lu: "Yes, grandma, why don't you ask uncle Niang and Qinghe to help, it's just a good time to start."

"Well, your aunt is fine at home, so it would be great if she could help you. As for Qinghe..." Grandma Lu paused, remembering the past, wondering if she should be asked to help.

After all, the third child's family has a lot of business, so they are afraid that something may go wrong.

"Grandma, Qinghe is still young, so I can do odd jobs when I go there. If there is anything she doesn't understand, I can teach her well." Lu Nanzhi frowned, and a sneer flashed across his eyes.

Sanfang is really smart, no matter what they want to come here to share a piece of the pie, but this time their wishful thinking may be in vain.

"Okay, then Qinghe will go to help with chores, don't cause trouble again, or I will never let you go!" The warning in Grandma Lu's words is obvious, if something happens to Lu Qinghe, no one can keep her.

Lu Qinghe lowered her head under Grandma Lu's gaze, she suddenly didn't want to do chores.

In the early morning, Lu Nanzhi took Lu Qinghe and Aunt Lu to the shop early in the morning.

Lu Qinghe couldn't stop complaining, "What's the use of us coming so early, many shops haven't opened yet, and there are not many pedestrians on the street."

When Lu Nanzhi heard his complaints, he suddenly stopped and turned around to look at him with his arms folded, "You are the one who came to the shop to help, and it's too late to regret it now."

Lu Qinghe dared to regret it, how could the mother-in-law let her go now when she goes back.

"I have no regrets."

"I hope your mouth can still be so hard in the future." Lu Nanzhi withdrew his gaze and continued to walk forward.

Xu Beiting and his younger sister were also left at the rouge shop to help out, and the shop became more and more prosperous. Many noble girls in the capital liked to come to her to buy rouge, which made other shops couldn't help but feel jealous.

One day, a woman with a veil came over and cursed before she entered the door: "What kind of rouge are you all here, look at the disfigurement of my face!"

"Excuse me girl, are you sure you bought the rouge from us?" Aunt Lu hurried forward and asked kindly.

"Could it be fake? Or do you think I will blackmail you for a box of rouge?" The woman threw the rouge out of her hand as she spoke, with an air of condescension.

"There are absolutely no fake products in our rouge shop. If you really feel uncomfortable, we can send you to the hospital." Aunt Lu still explained in a good voice. They were the ones who suffered the most.

The woman laughed when she heard this, "You want to calm things down like this, it's a dream!"

"What does the girl want?"

With a crisp sound, the curtain of the inner hall was lifted, and Lu Nanzhi came out from inside.

She has heard all the things just now, and this woman is not a good person at first glance, and this time it may not be so simple.

"I want you to close the door, the rouge you have here are all deceptive things." The woman said angrily.

Lu Nanzhi didn't have the slightest fear, and said calmly: "Young lady, there is evidence for this, if there is no evidence, it is a frame-up."

"My face is the best evidence. It is because of your rouge that my face looks like this." After the woman finished speaking, she took off the veil on her face, her whole face was terribly red and swollen.

Due to the loud noise of the woman, many people gathered around, and many shops ran over to watch the excitement.

Looking at the woman's face, Lu Qinghe couldn't help but take two steps back, and muttered softly: "This is too deceitful."

These words just fell into the woman's ears, and she grabbed Lu Qinghe's hand, "What did you just say? Do you know something?"

"I, I don't know, I don't know anything, I'm just a handyman."

When Lu Qinghe said this, he looked at Lu Nanzhi frequently, with a look of fear in his eyes, which made everyone misunderstand that there was something wrong with this shop.

"Have you seen that, I just said that the things in this shop are all fakes, and even their own people say that these things are too deceitful." The woman shouted loudly as if she had caught a handle.

With his hands behind his back, Lu Nanzhi said sharply: "Since the girl said that our rouge is a fake, please show the real evidence, otherwise don't blame me for reporting it to the police."

"you……"

Lu Nanzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a threatening tone, "If the girl continues to mess around, don't blame me for asking the government to investigate."

This girl's face should be caused by allergies, and it has nothing to do with rouge.

"How dare you..." the woman screamed, but her confidence was obviously lacking.

Lu Nanzhi sneered, turned and left.

The woman caught up angrily, and stretched out her hand to grab Lu Nanzhi's face, "Bitch, you must give me an explanation today, or I will make your face look like mine!"

Lu Nanzhi was about to dodge, but a figure rushed over to block her.

"Xu Beiting, you..." Seeing the enlarged face, she was a little surprised, so she reacted randomly and pushed him aside.

Lu Nanzhi looked up at the woman, she didn't want to think about it too much, it seemed that this thought was too kind.

"Are you sure you bought this box of rouge from this shop?"

As soon as the cold voice came, Shen Lanze walked out of the crowd, with anger and coldness in his eyes.
