C23 I'm Ashamed of Myself

After Yao Shu finished communicating with Manager Liu about the various small and large details of selling rouge, she told him to keep all the rouge, leaving behind only 20 boxes and some samples for trial.

While Manager Liu was busy with his work, Yao Chao leisurely sipped his hot tea while looking Yao Shu up and down.

Yao Shu could feel Second Brother's probing gaze, making her feel uncomfortable and a little guilty for some reason.

The woman hid the emotion in her eyes and pretended not to understand as she turned around to look at Second Brother.

Yao Chao said, "Shu has made a lot of progress now. I need to talk to Abba, Mother, when we get back. I don't want them and the elders to worry about you, afraid that you will suffer any grievances outside."

The way she spoke was very different from before. It was as if she had become a completely different person.

Yao Shu knew that it was impossible for her to be exactly the same as the original owner, so she wasn't afraid of Second Brother's probing.

She calmly smiled and said, "In the past, I was too naive and made my family worried. I spent my days muddle-headed but only had my father and brother to take care of me and Mother's love. Now, it's different. With three children, how can I be safely cared for by the family? Moreover, our Yao Family are all smart people, big brother does business, Second Brother runs the government, and I have grown a bit, so wouldn't I be more like a person with Yao Family? "

Yao Chao's eyes were filled with astonishment when he heard this. He then laughed out loud and nodded: "Even though Big Bro is in charge of the family business, he doesn't have as many devious ideas as you! "I observed that if we were to be smart, the two of you are probably evenly matched!"

Originally, he was worried that his little sister's rouge wouldn't sell, but now, it seemed that he was overthinking.

"Sigh, suffering a setback will increase one's intelligence. After suffering a lot, you will naturally know."

"Then do your best not to suffer any losses in the future. If anyone dares to bully you, speak to Second Brother."

"Second Brother …"

While the siblings were talking, Manager Liu had already arranged everything according to Yao Shu's request, just waiting for her to take a look.

Manager Liu walked over with a smile. "According to the lady's instructions, a counter has been set up to display rouge. The portrait has also been hung up. Miss, are you going to check it out? "

Yao Shu shook her head and said with a tone of complete trust, "Manager Liu has more experience in the business than me. I am assured of your arrangements."

Yao Chao accompanied his little sister to look at the placement of the Cloth Farm, then said to Yao Shu: "It's getting late, I'll go check in with the Lord Patrol Patrol Officer first, and pick you up at noon?"

Seeing Yao Shu nod, he left the Cloth Farm and walked towards the town's Patrol Office.

Qingtong Town was the largest and most prosperous town in the Liu City County. Because it was adjacent to the ethnic minorities of the northern border, it was not far from the capital city.

In contrast, more effort was needed to maintain order in the town.

What Yao Chao was doing now was to assist the Patrol Officer and maintain the stability of the Qingtong Town.

When they arrived at the Patrol Office, they saw the soldiers coming and going in a hurry. Yao Chao casually grabbed one and asked: "What happened?"

He only said, "This year, the Spring Court had suffered defeat in the northwest. But now, news has come that a group of defeated soldiers were not captured, but had instead killed a Turkic …"

Yao Chao seemed to have thought of something, frowned and then let go.

When the soldiers saw that he was silent, they invited him, "Mister Yao, if you don't come with me, why don't you go to the military camp and ask about the situation there?"

The military camp on the Qingtong Town was twenty kilometers away, and it would take at least half a day for them to go back and forth. Since Yao Shu was still in the Cloth Farm, it was only natural that he would not be able to go.

"I won't be going," Yao Chao cupped his hands. "If you have any other news, I'll have to trouble you to tell me. I'm very grateful."

Although Yao Chao had no duties, he was still a guest of honor for the Patrol Officer. In the past, he often worked with the Patrol Officer on cases, so he rarely talked to soldiers like them.

Seeing that he was so amiable to his servants, the soldier immediately waved his hand and said, "Sir is too polite, too polite! If there is any news, we will naturally inform Mister at once! "

Yao Chao smiled: "Then I'll be troubling you."

The soldier's face turned red. He didn't know how to reply, so he could only nod his head and run in the direction of the yard where the horses were tied.

As he ran, he recalled the smile on Mister Yao's face …

More beautiful than the most beautiful girl he had ever seen.

Yao Chao slowly walked into the inner courtyard. His heart, however, felt that it was ridiculous.

Lin Family Dalang had been dead for more than half a year already, could he be one of the defeated soldiers?

Yao Chao had been thinking about this all the way until the afternoon when he went to Cloth Farm to pick up Yao Shu and bring her back to the house.

Yao Shu stayed in Cloth Farm for the whole morning. Anyone who entered, regardless of whether they were male or female, would first be attracted by her painting, and then see the rouge that was displayed below.

She waited for Second Brother to return to the Cloth Farm, then bid him farewell and left.

Yao Shu sat in the carriage with an excited expression and said to Second Brother, "Second Brother! Take a guess, how much rouge have you sold in the past four hours? "

There was no one else in the carriage, so Yao Chao naturally didn't carry the carriage. He leaned against the wall and teased her: "From what you said, someone bought it?"

Yao Shu nodded her head vigorously, "Three boxes! He sold three boxes! As long as you're interested and tried it, you can pay for it! "

Seeing her happy look, the layer of worry that was originally covering Yao Chao's heart also lessened a lot.

Lin Dalang was no longer the same person as before. Even if Lin Dalang was still alive and had returned to his hometown, she would not be bullied for nothing.

"Second Brother." Yao Shu was really happy today. It was as if the burden that had always been on her suddenly lightened.

She pulled Yao Chao's sleeve and said, "It's all thanks to you and brother, as well as your two sister-in-law helping me … If rouge is sold well, the children and I will soon have a good life! "

Yao Chao's expression softened when he heard that. He gently caressed Yao Shu's head and pointed at her, "Even if you met with any problems, you would have your elder brother and Second Brother supporting you. "Shu, just be happy and take good care of yourself."

For the next few days, Yao Shu stayed at the town house, and ran towards the Cloth Farm when she had nothing to do during the day.

In just a few days of effort, the rouge that was sold by Yao Family had already spread in a small area, and the twenty boxes of rouge that she had prepared were all sold out as well.

Just as she was thinking about how she would like to go home and see the three children, an unexpected guest came to her from Cloth Farm.

"I heard that Yao Family are still selling rouge? Show it to me. What kind of rouge is it, to have it sell for five hundred gold coins! "

Seeing the person coming over, Manager Liu smiled and quickly went to welcome him, "Aiyo, isn't this Mrs. County Magistrate? "Why are you so free today? Why don't you come take a look around the store?"

Liu Cheng County was not very big, and its citizens were few, so much so that it was not even as prosperous as Qingtong Town.

Many fashionable clothes and accessories were also mostly sold on the Qingtong Town s which were convenient for transportation. Adding to the fact that they were not too far apart, there were many ladies and ladies who lived in the county who liked to take a stroll around the Qingtong Town s when they had nothing to do.

Today, Mrs. County Magistrate came because she heard that Yao Family had brought in a group of rouge from the south, and its color was extremely good.

Just a box of rouge wasn't worth her trip.

However, that rouge was actually being sold by the young miss of Yao Family.

"Manager Liu, where are the people in charge of the Cloth Farm? Let her come out and see me! "

Seeing her unfriendly look, Manager Liu bowed and smiled: "I was in charge! What did Madame want to see today? Right, there's rouge in vogue here, do you want to take a look? "

Mrs. County Magistrate raised her chin and sneered, ignoring Manager Liu, she took a step forward and raised her voice, "Since you're already out in the open, what's wrong with you?"
