Crossing the Nongmen: The Space of Doctor Women is on fire!

Chapter 76
Yang Jinfan pretended that he was reluctant but was moved by the sincerity of the proprietress, he took a step and thought twice before following the proprietress' kind invitation to the second floor.

When he reached the second floor of the shop, Yang Jinfan took a rough look around.

The fabrics, patterns, and workmanship of the clothes here are much better than those on the first floor, but the styles of the clothes are a bit monotonous, and they are all shorts, without long gowns and robes.

Yang Jinfan's handsome eyebrows are slightly frowned. The second floor is more spacious and brighter than the first floor, but the air is filled with dust and a musty smell. Yang Jinfan covered his nose with one hand, put his other hand around his chest, and stared at her with a pair of round almond eyes with slight dissatisfaction.

The landlady shook her slender hand holding the handkerchief in fright, her expression quite nervous.

Since the beginning of spring, there has been a lot of rain in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are not many customers in the store. Many of the overstocked clothes are already moldy, and the account books are not making ends meet.
She didn't pay much attention at first, but now that she came to the second floor again, she also felt a musty smell coming towards her face, and her cheeks were slightly red, which was quite embarrassing.

She took a deep breath, looked at Yang Jinfan, struggled for a while, and decided to tell the truth.

"Cough cough, miss, please tell me the truth. Since the beginning of spring, the business in this store has been really sluggish, especially in the town where a new clothing store has been opened recently. It has novel styles, various patterns, embroidery The workmanship is also very good. It is said that the chief family is from Shangjing, and the clothes are all popular styles in Shangjing. In the past, there were a few regular customers who would come to Nujia's shop, and they could barely make ends meet, but now the regular customers don't come. I haven't opened a store for two months, and my family is in a panic, busy thinking of ways all day long, and I don't have extra energy to manage the store, if I neglect the young lady, please forgive me."

Speaking of going to Beijing, Yang Jinfan became interested.

"Going to Beijing?"

"Miss Hui, yes!"

The proprietress replied helplessly, with a rather unwilling tone.

Speaking of Pinyige, the proprietress almost gritted her teeth.

The head of the family is from Beijing, the background is strong, and the styles of clothes are many and new, that is his ability, but the owner of Pinyige is not authentic, not only contracted all the best fabrics in the town, but also poached Without the best embroiderers in the embroidery workshop, the best quality needles and threads have also been monopolized.

These small business stores of theirs can only sell defective products of poor quality. If the quality of the ready-made clothes in the store cannot improve, they can only sell some clothes that ordinary people can wear, but ordinary people may not buy two or more clothes throughout the year. As time goes by, even the regular customers who were so proud of others are reluctant to come.

Yang Jinfan looked at the embarrassment on the face of the proprietress, and he probably had a point in his heart, so he spoke.

"Miss Boss, even if the business is difficult, you shouldn't give up on yourself. You see that you are worried about your livelihood, and you have moldy a lot of clothes due to such negligence. Wouldn't you have to lose another piece of property?"

The proprietress nodded sincerely, who said no!

It's just that she can't find a way to deal with it. She is anxious. If the store can't keep going, it will be a big deal to close the store and go home to farm, but how can she pay off the debts owed by her dead man?

If it weren't for her poor health and unsuitability for childbearing, her parents only had her as a daughter, and they were reluctant to marry into someone else's family to suffer in such a situation, so they simply recruited a son-in-law.

The man in her family had lost his parents at that time, he had read a few books, could read and write, and was handsome in appearance, but he was too shy to afford food, and when he heard that the Xu family was looking for a son-in-law, he came here without even thinking about it.

At that time, he kept saying that he didn't care about whether he had children or not. She felt that the young boy was gentle and handsome, so he would be a good match, so she got married immediately.

Later, her parents passed away one after another, and the family business, which was not big but not small, was handed over to the couple to take care of it, and the true nature of the dead men was exposed.

At first, he spent the whole night eating, drinking and having fun at his friends’ houses. He called it reciting poems and making love, but then he became more and more arrogant. Infected with gambling, the dead old man went home and asked for money as if it was a matter of course. If she didn't give it, someone would block the door the next day to collect debts.

She really had no choice but to sell his money to fill this hole for him.

Seeing that the family property is getting less and less, and gradually only this tailor shop is left, she was so anxious that her mouth got blisters, she couldn't eat well, she couldn't sleep, her hair fell out badly, and the house leaked. Every night it rains, the original business of the garment shop is also seized by people.

The proprietress seemed to have opened a valve to vent her emotions, telling Yang Jinfan about her experience, accusing her of how heartless the man was, and she shed tears while talking.

Yang Jinfan listened carefully, not knowing how to comfort him, so he asked.

"Since your Xu family recruited you, and now you are in charge of the family, why don't you just get rid of this man who ruined the family tradition? It will also save yourself from being tired."

The proprietress wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief and said.

"Miss doesn't know the suffering in my family's heart. I also thought about throwing him a letter of divorce at the worst, and I can get clean for myself. It's just that my family has no children and half daughters, two have no fertility, and three have beauty. Grow old, my family... I am really afraid that there will be no one to accompany me, and I will be lonely and have no one to rely on. Just keep him, even if his virtue is not good, at least he is still a companion, right?"

Yang Jinfan didn't like to express much about other people's choices, so after patiently listening to the story of the proprietress, he asked her to get a few sets of ready-made clothes that hadn't suffered from mildew, regardless of the size, she would accept them all.

The proprietress was overjoyed, and hurriedly got up to look for it. Although Yang Jinfan said so, she still found some more clothes that fit Yang Jinfan's figure and carried them with her.

Yang Jinfan took the clothes and opened them one by one.

Well, yes, there are clothes that fit Mrs. Wang.

"Go get some more men's clothes, especially the ones worn by grown men."

Men's?

The proprietress was puzzled, the young lady still needs men's clothes for a daughter's family, could it be that they are for the father and brother in the family?
But rich people also wear this kind of clothes?
Thinking of this, the proprietress suddenly realized a problem, if Yang Jinfan was the lady of a rich family, how could she be so young to buy clothes by herself?
Yang Jinfan stared at the face of the proprietress, and sat silently at the side. Although the proprietress was puzzled, she didn't ask too much.

When the clothes were found, Yang Jinfan looked at them one by one again, and then took out a 100 tael bank note from his pocket and handed it to the proprietress.

The proprietress was overjoyed, and reached out to take the bank note, but heard Yang Jinfan's cold voice.

"These clothes will definitely not cost 100 taels, and the rest is an investment in the store."

　that's it for tonight, good night
