Su Qingluan's heart skipped a beat: the person was following her just now, how could he disappear in the blink of an eye?

She rushed out to look for someone, but found that the little girl was actually hiding behind the door panel outside.

"What are you doing hiding here?" Su Qingluan let out a long sigh and relaxed, "I thought you were taken away by the beggar!" Don't child thieves like young, fair-skinned and cute children the most?

Yang also chased out anxiously: "Have you found the third girl?"

"Found it!" Su Qingluan pulled the little girl out from behind the door panel with a bit of annoyance, "She was hiding behind the door panel!"

"What are you doing squatting there, girl?" Yang was both angry and amused. She turned her head and looked inside the house. "Don't be so anxious, head of the household. Go down the ladder slowly. San Ya has found it, she's outside!"

When Su Qingluan heard her mother's question, she sneered in annoyance, "Isn't this the dress that mother just put on her yesterday, and it got torn today?"

Yang squatted down and looked at her little daughter: "Where is the dress torn?"

Su Xueyan looked at Yang nervously and pointed to her right elbow.

"How did you get scratched?"

The little girl told Madam Yang again about her previous attempt to catch butterflies. Madam Yang patted her hands comfortingly and said, "Oh, what's the problem? Daddy and Mommy's clothes often get torn, so they can just be patched up. Go, let's go inside first!"

After the little girl skipped into the clothing store, Yang stood up and asked helplessly, "What's wrong, Daya? Are you too tired lately? You never get mad at Sanya over such trivial matters before. Don't you love her the most?"

Su Qingluan was stunned for a moment before she realized that she had indeed been a little restless and had a bad temper in the past three to five days. Of course, as a "pseudo-girl" with an adult at heart, she would also consciously control her emotions, but now she herself realized that her temper had been a bit bad recently.

Shaking her head, Su Qingluan said, "Actually, this batch of goods has already been produced. Besides, we were busy with this in waves before. Or maybe it's because the weather is getting hotter, so it's a bit summery?"

Yang smiled and said, "In that case, go home and let your mother make you some lotus seed porridge or chrysanthemum water. That's better for clearing away heat and reducing internal heat."

Su Qingluan smiled and nodded, and went into the clothing store with Yang, ready to close the shop and make samples.

At this moment, a young man came running up to the door, panting and knocking on it: "Is Carpenter Su here?"

Su Guangfu handed his daughter the small wooden chain lock he had taken out of the drawer to play with, letting her play with it first. He then stood up and made a fist-raising gesture towards the young man. "What a coincidence, little brother. Our store is closed today. Please come in early tomorrow."

"Carpenter Su, please be flexible. I went to three carpentry shops and they were all closed. Only yours was open, so I came here to try my luck!"

It turned out that the young man's elder sister was getting married, and the wedding ceremony was in three days. However, at the last minute, one of the custom-made pinewood screens was broken.

This was an important item from the bride's dowry, and was to be used in the bedroom. The wedding was to take place in three days, but something like this happened, and everyone felt bad.

And this seems to represent a bad omen.

So the young man thought that he must find a craftsman no matter what, even if he had to pay several times more wages, he would ask the craftsman to work overtime to make it.

Time was very tight, although only one screen needed to be made, and because the broken one was the one closest to the edge, the pattern carved on it was relatively simple.

However, it takes time from carving to painting. Even if we work overtime from now on, it will take at least two and a half days to complete this screen.

If we delay for a whole night, it will be too late to hire someone tomorrow.

Su Qingluan looked at the young man's anxious look and sighed in her heart: This guy is lucky, but it seems that my father has to stay and "work overtime" tonight and can't go home with me.

As to why everyone in the town knew that there was a skilled carpenter named "Su" in this shop, there was a bit of a story behind it.

In fact, this is indeed a "ready-made clothing store", but Su Qingluan spent a lot of money when she bought the jam shop. When she wanted to buy another one, few people wanted to transfer it at the moment, so Su Qingluan paid another year's rent for the "Qiao Niang Ready-made Clothing Store".

This had cost a lot of money. Even though Su Qingluan comforted her father and mother that they would soon earn the money back, the two decided to save as much as possible on expenses.

It happened that they came across a batch of shelves that Yang had ordered. The unscrupulous merchants were selling inferior products as good ones, and Su Guangfu, an expert in carpentry who had been doing it for many years, discovered this. Su Guangfu, who was very worried about other people's craftsmanship, thought that everyone made things anyway, so he might as well take a few "little apprentices" with him to make shelves for his wife.

These "young apprentices" were young people who had followed Su Guangfu when he led the villagers of Huaxi Village to repair houses. Later, when spring came and flowers bloomed, everyone wanted to do something besides farming to supplement their family income, so several of them begged Su Guangfu to "become his apprentices."

Of course, Su Guangfu paid the workers, and the apprentices were also very diligent.

In the "Qiao Niang Garment Store", everything from the shelves to the wooden benches was made by Su Guangfu himself, with the help of several apprentices.

Not only that, in order to facilitate Yang's work, Su Guangfu also made many convenient and useful gadgets for Yang. For example, at the beginning, if a customer came to choose cloth, Su Guangfu was responsible for climbing up and down to find the corresponding cloth, and then carrying the whole piece of cloth down for the customer to put on and try.
