Shu Yu then said to the old lady, “Grandma, mum probably won’t have much free time in the next few days. The job of cooking may fall on you.”

The old lady waved her hand, “It’s nothing, just things job I’m used to doing. I guarantee the house will be squeaking clean. You don’t have to worry about it.”

Shu Yu was thinking that after they earned some money, they would have to buy two servants. Although the old lady was not old, she had worked hard these few years. She looked much more haggard than those gossiping women at the village entrance today.

At the thought of the other party’s appearance, Shu Yu suddenly remembered the makeup products she brought back.

She quickly went to get her bag and placed the makeup products on the table.

“Grandma, mum, come and pick a few.”

“This is…” Mrs. Ruan looked at the various ceramic jars in front of her in surprise. These jars were very exquisite, and the patterns on them were very beautiful.

She couldn’t help but pick one up and asked in surprise, “These are the makeup products that you said the Yu family left for you?

“Yes, these twenty jars are of good quality. I was thinking of bringing them back to share with everyone.”

Madam Ruan couldn’t bear to part with the makeup product in her hand. When she was a girl, the Ruan family didn’t give her money. She wore rough linen clothes every day and never dressed up.

After she married into the Lu family, Lu Erbai had been clueless about these girly things. But once, he saw her standing at a small stall looking at rouge and knew that she liked it, so he bought her a box.

However, within two days, Old Lady Ruan came to see her and took it away.

After that, Madam Ruan never bought or used makeup again.

These rouge were obviously much better than the one she had bought from the small stall in town back then. Ruan Shi caressed the jar, then took a deep breath and put it down. She looked up at Shu Yu and said, “I don’t need this.

You can keep it for yourself or give it to others in the future when you need to

do so.”

The old lady also said, “That i s right. I’m already so old. I’ll be laughed at if I use

Shu Yu still pushed the jars over, “I’m afraid that won’t do. We’re about to open a shop and we have to receive all kinds of customers then. We have to persuade them to buy our products and craftsmanship. If we don’t even care about dressing up, why would the customers believe that we have such skills?” When Madam Ruan and the old lady heard this, they felt that it made sense.

But … Even if they dressed up, they wouldn’t look good.

Shu Yu laughed, “You can put the rouge aside for now, but you still need to take care of your body and face. At the very least, you can’t be so thin. Your face has to be more ruddy and healthy. We can’t be frugal, we have to maintain our appearance.”

The two older women could not find any words to refute Shu Yu and could thus only accept the makeup. At this moment, they were feeling somewhat regretful. Why did they choose to open a ready-to-wear clothes shop? Never mind the other capital, now even they needed to eat and drink well… They felt that it was unnecessary.

In the end, the two still picked out two jars of makeup from the pile.

Shu Yu packed the rest, “I’ll send some to my elder sisters later.”

As for how and when she would do so, she would think about it when the time came.

Shu Yu put the bag aside. When she turned around, she saw Lu Erbai’s dejected look. She thought for a moment and knew the reason.

Thus, she looked at Lu Erbai and said, “Dad, although you’re recuperating now, there’s something that I need your help with.”

As expected, Lu Erbai’s spirits were lifted, “Say it, I’ll do it well..”
