The doctor concubine who broke off the engagement was forced to rush to the wedding, but became the

Three days later, Qianyuan Pavilion Rouge Shop opened with great fanfare and invited Kyoto's famous lion dance team to liven up the event. They set off three strings of firecrackers bought from the largest fireworks shop in East Market, and the sound could be heard from several streets away.

Madam Yu arrived at the shop early as promised. She had originally planned to work passively and let Xie Zhichan give her compensation so that she could simply find a new employer.

But when she took the small box given by Xie Zhichan home, opened the booklet, read the names of the cosmetics in the booklet, and tried all the cosmetics herself, she decided to stay and work hard.

Because she foresaw that if she stayed, she would most likely become the owner of the largest rouge shop in Kyoto, which was her dream career.

Many customers were attracted by the sound of firecrackers. Madam Yu stood at the door of the shop and introduced the latest cosmetics series of Qianyuan Pavilion Rouge Shop to the customers who came to watch.

"First of all, I would like to introduce to you our Qianyuan Pavilion's whitening series. It contains a variety of precious medicinal herbs and has excellent whitening effects. If you don't believe it, you can get a trial pack and go to a reliable doctor to check the herbs inside. A warm reminder, today, our store will only give a free trial sample to the first 100 customers who purchase. No matter what you buy, you can get a free trial sample."

"Customers who don't need whitening should also pay attention to moisturizing in summer. According to different skin characteristics, we have developed moisturizing creams for oily, dry and neutral skin. If you don't know the condition of your skin, you can ask our staff to test it for free with test strips."

"The cosmeceuticals we want to highlight today are our scar removal creams. This cream is made from the essence extracted from a variety of precious scar removal herbs. It has a significant scar removal effect, but it is a bit expensive. Scar removal is a long-term process. Generally, three boxes of freckles are effective, but stubborn and dark scars need to be removed for half a year. For this product, we have also prepared a seven-day sample for free. Those who receive it can use it for seven days and then purchase it after seeing the effect."

"For the first 30 customers who make purchases today, we have prepared a beautiful gift package, which is the handkerchief and round fan produced by Huayu Embroidery Workshop that I am holding in my hand."

"The last good news is that in the first three days of Qianyuan Pavilion's opening, all products will be 20% off! We will draw one lucky customer from all the customers who purchase during these three days and give him a one-year 20% discount membership card for free."

"Now, ladies and young ladies are welcome to come into the store and make purchases!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a crowd of people poured into Qianyuan Pavilion rouge shop like a tide. Even some girls from poorer families, who could not afford new products that cost five taels of silver or more, would buy a box of rouge worth one tael of silver, just for the free handkerchiefs and round fans. Just to customize these handkerchiefs and round fans at Huayu Embroidery Workshop would cost two taels of silver!

Qianyuan Pavilion is really generous. They actually give away things from such a famous embroidery workshop for free!

In just one day, the turnover of Qianyuan Pavilion's rouge shop exceeded the total of the past month, and Madam Yu became even more certain that it was right for her to stay.

She checked the account book for the day again, handed it to Xie Zhichan and said, "Princess, this is today's account book, please take a look."

Seeing her attitude, Xie Zhichan smiled and said, "Keep the account book for now, and just keep track of it. Check the accounts once at the end of the month, once a quarter, and once at the end of the year. You just need to give me the account book at these three times."

Madam Yu was suddenly touched. She didn't expect that her new employer would trust her so much despite her attitude.

She said frankly, a little embarrassed, "Princess, I treated you badly before because I misunderstood you. I thought you were a woman who was stuffed into Prince Yan's mansion because of a bad reputation, as they said. I didn't expect that you were different from the rumors and you are so good at business. The prince has such a capable wife like you, but he still went to visit Nanfeng Pavilion! It's a pity that I thought he was a great hero who pacified the northern border before, and I felt it was not worth it for him to marry you-"

Xie Zhichan: “…”

It turns out that this lady was a fan of Pei Yi before! That's why she was inexplicably hostile to her...

But it’s too quick to lose fans and turn against them!

She smiled and said, "Whether the prince visits Nanfeng Pavilion or not, he is still a great hero who pacified the northern border."

Madam Yu slapped her lips and said with a smile, "Don't mind me, Concubine. I have never sold so many things in one day. I got a little carried away. You are right. No matter what, the prince is a great hero who pacified the northern border. I just hope that the prince can see the goodness of Concubine and stop messing around."

Xie Zhichan thought to himself, Pei Yi was right. Sure enough, no one suspected that he was contacting the secret agent openly. It was just that it was too easy for people to think wrongly...

Qianyuan Pavilion opened grandly and quickly became well-known in Kyoto. Many noble ladies rushed to buy it, and it was also a hot topic among family members and relatives at home. Needless to say, it became well-known in Kyoto.

-

In the Earl of Chiayi's mansion, there was only one female member, the old lady, who had been a widow for three generations. After all, she was old and lacked energy. In addition, there were many disturbances due to Lu Xiuzhu's breaking off the engagement with Xie Zhichan and his engagement with Princess Anle. Zhang Lu was worried about her mother, so she took Zhang Zhitao to live there until Lu Xiuzhu got married. Lu even helped with most of the affairs.

Zhang originally wanted to leave after Lu Xiuzhu's wedding, but Princess Anle had no ability to manage the household. After Zhang left the house for a few days, the vegetables purchased from the mansion were not fresh, or the money spent by the government was not in line with the market price, and so on.

Old Madam Lu had no choice but to let Zhang and Zhang Zhitao continue to stay.

That day, Mrs. Lu was in Madam Lu's courtyard listening to her complaining about this matter.

Madam Lu sighed heavily and said, "I really didn't expect her to be so useless. After all, Yongtai is a royal princess. The rules of upbringing in the palace are very strict, and the nannies released are all fought over by the aristocratic families with huge sums of money. How come her daughter can't even keep accounts? She is really spoiled!"

Madam Lu was the legitimate grandmother of Princess Anle's in-laws, and she dared to say such things. Zhang was just a merchant's wife, but she didn't dare to say anything bad about Princess Anle. She just said, "Mother, don't be too anxious. She is still young and has a lot of time to learn. Mother will teach her slowly."

Madam Lu got even angrier after hearing this and said, "She is still young, but I am already an old woman with half my body buried in the ground. Teach her slowly? How much time do I have left to teach her slowly? Look at her temper now. Because of the scar on her face, she either smashes things or abuses young maids in the house every day. But that happened in the Princess's Mansion, and she came back to the Lu Mansion to vent her anger!"

Seeing her mother getting angrier and angrier, Zhang was afraid that she would faint from anger, so she comforted her mother, "It's understandable why Princess Anle is like this now. Not to mention her, which young girl would not be devastated if she had three scars on her face that couldn't be covered up by makeup? Mother, give her some time, she will be fine after a while."

Madam Lu was worried again, "Did Zhuge marry a new wife or go home to honor his ancestors? Not only do he have to face her face and temper every day, but he's getting off work later and later, maybe just to avoid her!"

Zhang said again: "Don't worry, mother. I'm just going to stay at home for a few more days. With Sister Tao'er's help, the house won't be in chaos. Things are getting better and better now."

Mrs. Lu thought of Tao Jie'er, and her face relaxed slightly. She said, "I have seen these days that Tao Jie'er is capable. If I can let Tao Jie'er marry earlier, I will really put my mind at ease."

As they were talking, Zhang Zhitao came in and said with a smile, "What are mother and grandmother talking about? I came to tell mother and grandmother that I have to go to a good place this morning, so that mother and grandmother won't worry if they can't find me at home."

Madam Lu smiled and said, "Sister Tao, did you find a good place? Why did you go there by yourself and not ask your mother to go with me?"

Zhang Zhitao smiled and said, "I also heard from the little girl who went out that there is a new rouge shop called Qianyuan Pavilion opened in Kyoto. I heard that the cosmetics sold there are very effective, and there is also a kind of cosmetics that can remove scars. I want to go and take a look, and then let the princess try it, maybe it will be useful."

Madam Lu said, "You, my child, really do have the heart to do good for her. Well, go ahead. If you don't have enough money, go to the account office and withdraw some. The cards are all with your mother. Your mother is helping me manage the Lu Mansion now, and in the future, you will have to help Zhuge'er manage it."

Zhang Zhitao blushed and said, "What is grandma talking about?"

After saying this, she hurriedly bowed to her mother and turned to leave Madam Lu's yard.

In fact, she was not thinking about Princess Anle. She just hoped that Princess Anle's face would be better, her temper would be more controlled, and her cousin could return home as soon as possible.
