Xiang shook her head and smiled. “No, we’re garment craftsmen hired by the Lu family.”

Shu Yu had said that working in the Lu family was upright, and nothing should be hidden.

However, they had to keep it a secret from the Ruan family. They also feared that Old Madam Ruan would come and cause trouble for the Lu family.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, the shopkeepers and waiters of the two shops who were originally talking were stunned.

The next moment, he burst into laughter. “You’re hired by their family?”

Xiang was baffled by their laughter, and her heart began to pound. “What… what’s wrong? Is there a problem?”

“No, no problem. We think that the Lu family is quite bold. It had been four days since they opened for business, but there was not a single customer. It was empty and quiet. It was not as lively as when they were repairing the house. They hadn’t earned a single penny in the past few days, and now they would hire people?”

The few of them shook their heads as they spoke. They really did not understand where the Lu family got their courage from.

Xiang and Fu Xiangdi looked at each other. No customers for four days? If Yu gave them such a high salary, wouldn’t it be a big loss?

The two of them were worried, but they still went to the shop to look.

Seeing them walking towards Yiren Pavilion, the shopkeepers behind them started to discuss even louder. “Does the Lu family know how to do business?

What a waste of money.”

“I estimate this shop will only last a month at most.”

“Half a month would be already tough.”

The discussions behind them gradually faded away. Xiang and Fu Xiangdi finally arrived at the entrance of Yiren Pavilion with heavy footsteps.

Sanya, sitting at the door and playing with Maneki, noticed them first. The little girl immediately stood up.

She did not know Xiang and Fu Xiangdi, so she stepped back and asked timidly, “Who, who are you looking for?”

Before Xiang could reply, Lu Erbai, sitting behind the counter, had already heard the commotion and raised his head. He immediately raised his voice and said,” It’s sister-in-law and Xiangdi, right? Come in quickly. My wife is right behind.”

He told San Ya, “Go and call your mother and sister.”

San Ya immediately ran to the backyard. After a while, Madam Ruan and Shu

Yu came out.

“Xiang!” Madame Ruan had not seen Xiang for a long time. Even though the two of them lived not far from each other’s village, they had not had the time to see each other because they were working hard for their lives.

Now, it was as if they had reunited after a long time and as if a lifetime had passed.

Madam Ruan was thrilled. She pulled Xiang over to sit down. “Why are you here so early? I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to find our place, so I thought of asking Yu to wait for you at the city gate later.”

“We entered the city as soon as the city gates opened. We were afraid that wewould delay things if we came late,” Xiang said as she looked at the shop in front of her.

Seeing that the shop was, as the shopkeepers had said, empty without any customers, she couldn’t help but feel nervous.

She asked Madam Ruan softly, “How’s your business?

Madam Ruan didn’t know how to answer. She was embarrassed that she hadn’t sold a piece of clothing in four days.

But when Xiang saw her like this, she immediately understood. She was a little worried that the business of the clothing store would not be good, but Madam Ruan would not let her go home because of their past friendship.

Therefore, Xiang decided to take the initiative to bring it up. “I think if you can manage, we should…”

Before she could say the word “go”, a commotion suddenly came from outside..
