General, Your Wife Wants You to Get Out - C122
Li Yi was the first to drop the account book and run up to Su Zhi. He looked her up and down before letting out a sigh of relief. “Thank God, Little Su. It’s good that you’re fine.”
“Yeah, boss, everyone’s worried when they heard that something happened to you.” Qiu Hong stepped forward with a smile.
Su Zhi was a kind-hearted person. She would never so easily criticize others, and that was when the shop assistant committed a mistake. As long as it was not important, she would just kindly persuade them.
For so long, Hua Manlou and company had been very fond of this new owner.
“Thanks for your concern, today is the last day of business for the new year. Let me see if there’s anything I can help with.”
Li Yi returned to the counter and presented the account book to Su Zhi like a treasure. “Little Su, take a look. The income’s really good these two days. Why don’t we delay the holidays? There’s still three days until New Year’s Eve.”
Su Zhi took the account book and gently shook her head. “How can the promised vacation be delayed? Besides, there are still people who are not from Xuan City in the store, so it won’t be easy to go back. It’s settled like this. Today’s holiday will be ready after work.”
The main boss had already announced it. All the employees below were grinning from ear to ear. On the other side, the hundred scents of the Qing Xiang were not closed until New Year’s Eve.
In comparison, Flower Mansion was much more human-like. Furthermore, there was also the year-end benefits and bonuses that the shopkeeper personally offered. Like this, they had truly come across a huge bargain.
With a guarantee, the shop assistant worked even harder.
Satisfied, Su Zhi brought her two children up to the third floor.
“Boss, the business on the third floor is still in a mess these two days. Several large families have dragged their maidservants over to purchase some things.”
“Hmm, what’s the best item for sale?”
“Jade Face Paste and Almond Mountain Tea Hand Cream.”
This was also within Su Zhi’s expectation. It was a severe winter and cold, making the skin the easiest to dry. The sales of high-moisture products would also be higher.
“I got it, let’s go up and see if there’s anything we can replenish. You can go to the yard to pick some aloes and bring them up to me.”
Qiuhong nodded, brought some green aloe vera, two or three white plum blossoms, and put a charcoal brazier in the compartment before leaving.
Su Zhi began to get busy as A Jin strolled around the boutique next door with a small bean bag.
It was unknown when it started snowing again, and ice was forming under the eaves of the house.
Qiu Hong used a bamboo pole to clean up the ice pillar that might break at any time. When her eyes glanced around the yard, she found that a man had appeared at the gate where she had not seen him for a long time.
The person held up a light green oil-paper umbrella. The bamboo umbrella tilted slightly, hiding his face. The only thing he saw was a man wearing a large grey robe, with an ink-colored shirt lining. His feet landed silently on the ground, appearing as if they were treading on snow from the sky.
“Hello, young master. Are you here to help the madam collect the items?” Qiu Hong quickly put down the bamboo pole in her hands and went up to welcome her with a smile.
Flowery Restaurant’s third floor didn’t receive any male guests, but since there weren’t any, it wouldn’t be a problem for them to receive any. Judging from the wolf fur mattress, a man’s body was worth a lot of money. Who knows, he might even be able to take on some big business.
“Thank you, I would like to buy some small items for my wife.”
Qiu Hong quickly went up to welcome him. “This way, please.”
The man put away his oil-paper umbrella, revealing a young face that looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. He had a pair of elegant almond-shaped eyes, and at the corner of his left eye was a teardrop.
What surprised Qiu Hong was not the man’s outstanding looks, but his graceful bearing and the noble aura that he was born with.
The two of them went up to the attic. Qiu Hong was about to ask, but the man laughed first. “The weather is so cold. Can I trouble you to get me a cup of hot tea?”
Qiu Hong smiled. “Seeing how sharp my eyes are, please wait for a moment. This little one will do it right away.”
Hearing the voices coming from the other side of the door, A Jin dropped her bean bag and stuck her head out in curiosity.
In the main hall of the third floor, a young man was shaking snow particles off his clothes.
Seemingly aware that someone was looking at him, his actions paused for a moment. His clear gaze instantly caught sight of the little kid who was sticking his head out and poking his head out.
A Jin was a little embarrassed, she could only smile at the man.
“Little friend.”
The man didn’t seem to feel anything. He stood with the umbrella in the corner. His gaze was still following the smiling child. When he saw A Jin’s face, he was slightly surprised.
At this moment, Su Zhi had already developed some hand cream that was easy to handle. She put the bottle away, and as soon as she came out, she met a man who was glaring at A Jin.
She was slightly surprised. “Who is this young master?”
Only after hearing the voice did the man withdraw his gaze and cast a sidelong glance at her.
“Greetings, little lady. I wish to buy some rouge and water powder for my wife.”
He clasped his hands together in a bow and stared unblinkingly at Su Zhi. A trace of unusualness was hidden in his inky eyes.
“Oh, so that’s how it is. What do you want to buy, young master?”
The man smiled warmly and replied, “This humble one was careless in my understanding of women’s things. I hope that young lady can give me some pointers.”
Seeing him be so courteous and elegant, Su Zhi guessed that he was the son of a rich family.
He had an extraordinary bearing and always felt a sense of humility and gentleness, especially his eyes that were filled with a sense of control. He smiled especially, and the teardrop mark at the corner of his eyes gave him an air of elegance.
“May I know how to address young master?”
“I am Zhao Zheng.”
Su Zhi very politely led him to a boutique at the side. She pointed at the dazzling counter and introduced it one by one, “Young Master Zhao, I’ve made these with great care. You can take a look. If your wife likes the blubber, look this way. If she likes the rouge of the eyebrow pencil, look this way. Or maybe, try the hand cream I just developed to help protect you from dry cracks and frost markings. The effect is very good. ”
Zhao Zheng roughly swept his eyes over the things in the room and bitterly smiled as he shook his head. “I’m just a boorish person. I really don’t understand what these madams and mistresses are using. It’s better for this little lady to choose a few.”
“That’s fine too. I’ll definitely pick out something that Madam will like from the first glance.”
Su Zhi thought, since this Young Master Zhao was so gentle and refined, his own daughter-in-law should be about the same.
She pondered for a moment, then picked up a bean-colored lip glaze and handed it to him. “Do you think that this color of lip glaze is suitable for your wife? This color number is neither ostentatious nor old, and is suitable for different colors. ”
Zhao Zheng didn’t pay much attention and took it over, cupping his hands: “Thank you, little lady.”
Seeing that he did not have any objections, Su Zhi picked up a bottle of hand cream and gave it to him, “This is a finished product that was made not long ago. This is a bottle of hand cream, it contains the essential oil of the camellia, together with milk and grape seeds.
Zhao Zheng still didn’t say anything unnecessary and accepted it.
“Do you want this series of skincare products for your wife? Aloe Vera Moisturizing Face Cream and Honeycomb Water Film, not greasy and clear, very suitable for use in autumn and winter. ”
From start to finish, Zhao Zheng didn’t say much. He really didn’t seem to know what to buy for his wife. However, what Su Zhi did not know was that as soon as she turned around, the man’s gaze would shift to the two children.
