Chapter 1008 Shu Yu, the Disliked One
After tidying up the counter and cleaning the floor, Shuyu settled down behind the counter.
There won't be any business coming in this early in the morning.
It wasn't until late morning that the old lady arrived slowly with Hua Xian, and then a few guests gradually came in.
The customers were taken aback when they saw that it was Shu Yu behind the counter.
Anyone who has visited the shop a few times knows that the current owner is Lu Xiangjun's older sister, and they are very happy to communicate with this easy-going and good-tempered Miss Lu.
But Miss Lu wasn't there today; instead, a strange girl was sitting behind the counter.
Yes, in fact, there are very few people who have met Shu Yu and know her identity.
The name "Lu Xiangjun" is far more famous than she is.
Shu Yu didn't introduce herself. Since she wasn't busy at the moment, Hua Xian had already driven off to greet the guests.
Seeing that she was managing her tasks and that Yingxi was helping her retrieve the goods, the old lady pressed Shuyu back down and told her to continue sitting.
“You’ve been so busy lately, always going here and there, without a moment to rest. It’s rare that you don’t have to walk around in the shop. Just sit behind the counter and be the anchor, take a break. We can manage.”
Shu Yu then obediently sat there.
However, a little while later, two more people came over to get their makeup done.
Just as Shu Yu was about to stand up, the two men, seeing that it wasn't Miss Lu, immediately refused.
They heard that Manager Lu had gone to the prefectural city and wouldn't be back for a few days. The two were quite disappointed and said they would come back in a few days before leaving again.
Shu Yu was a little confused—my cooking skills are pretty good too, you know.
The old lady couldn't help but laugh. "They don't even know you, how would they know that you taught Daya all those skills? No, even if they did know you, they wouldn't dare let you do their makeup, you're the village head now."
Shu Yu was a little suspicious. "Grandma, do you think I'm here to help my sister get business or to rush business?"
The old lady finally couldn't help but burst into laughter, causing everyone else in the shop to turn around and look at them.
Although no one knew what the old lady was laughing about, her joy was contagious.
Shu Yu felt somewhat helpless and had no choice but to sit back down.
Fortunately, more customers came soon. This time, they weren't buying clothes or makeup; they were there to make appointments.
Shu Yu was stunned for a moment. An appointment?
What are you booking?
Her question surprised the customer. "You didn't know? Of course I had to make an appointment for Manager Lu to do my bridal makeup."
Shu Yu's eyes lit up slightly. Her older sister had already received orders for bridal makeup?
Before she could think too much, she quickly wrote down the man's information and wedding date, as well as some basic questions in her notebook.
The guests initially thought she didn't even know anything about bridal makeup, which made her seem unreliable.
But Shu Yu's later seriousness and meticulousness put her at ease. She only said that she would come to the shopkeeper of Tonglu again the day before the wedding to confirm, and then left.
As soon as she left, the old lady said to Shu Yu, "This bridal makeup is quite a coincidence. A while ago, a couple was getting married, but the elder who did the bride's makeup the day before suddenly fell ill and couldn't even get out of bed. It wasn't easy to find a suitable person. Someone mentioned that Manager Lu of Yiren Pavilion has excellent skills and can do beautiful and exquisite makeup. If we hire her, the groom might be unable to take his eyes off her the moment he lifts the veil."
