Chapter 1582 Master and Disciple Meet
Shu Yu was surprised by this unexpected turn of events. Seeing that the person was satisfied with the third prize, she felt relieved and immediately walked over with a smile.
The middle-aged man held the rouge and powder in his hand, examining them with excitement and agitation. He paid no attention to the chattering around him.
Shu Yu stood to the side and smiled, "Congratulations to this guest for winning the third prize and becoming the first lucky winner of the third prize. Now, only the first prize remains to be revealed. I wonder which guest will be the one to unveil it for us? I'm looking forward to it."
The others burst into laughter. "We're even more excited." At least you, the owner, know what's under that cloth on the table. They're the ones itching to rush up and lift it up.
Many customers holding small wooden plaques and queuing up for the lucky draw were full of ambition, saying, "I think I can win; the first prize is waiting for me."
"Nonsense, it must be me. I've been incredibly lucky lately, it would be a shame if I didn't win first prize."
"Stop arguing, it's definitely me."
Regardless, the crowd's enthusiasm remained high, even more so than before.
Seeing this, Wei Ronghua couldn't help but admire his employer's unique approach. This method of revealing the awards little by little successfully piqued everyone's curiosity and greatly satisfied their expectations.
Just like an addiction, it makes people reluctant to leave.
He had been a little uneasy, but it seems he had been overthinking things.
Just then, he saw Shu Yu walking over and hurriedly asked, "Is there something you need, Master?"
Shu Yu pointed towards the door, "I think I just saw Hu Geng come over. Go check it out, I'll take care of things here."
With Ying Xi and Xia Yan, who just arrived, helping with the lottery, they can manage.
Wei Ronghua was taken aback. He looked up and saw Hu Geng standing at the door, trying to walk in. However, there were too many people in front of him, and he didn't want to push others, lest something happen.
Especially since he was carrying something in his hand, as if he was afraid of damaging it.
Wei Ronghua quickly went outside. As the shop owner, the customers made way for him when they saw him.
But as soon as he stepped out the door, the road closed off again, as if everyone was afraid of being cut in line and missing their chance to win a prize.
Wei Ronghua came out slightly out of breath.
Upon seeing him, Hu Geng immediately broke into a wide smile, "Master."
Wei Ronghua pulled him aside, "Why did you come here?"
"The steward and I are here to deliver congratulatory gifts on behalf of the eldest young master." The eldest young master that Hu Geng mentioned is the eldest young master of the Wu family. He originally wanted to come and congratulate him in person, but he had to leave Donggu County a few days ago and has not returned yet.
After much thought, he handed the congratulatory gift he had prepared in advance to the steward, asking him to take Hu Geng with him.
After all, Hu Geng was already working at the Wu family's horse farm, so he was considered a member of the Wu family.
Furthermore, he knew Shu Yu and was also an apprentice of the shopkeeper, Wei Ronghua.
Since Ronghua of Dawei came to the prefectural city and Hu Geng went to the Wu family's horse farm, they have both been adapting to their new environment and have been busy with many things, so they haven't seen each other yet.
Perfect timing, let's take this opportunity to let the master and apprentice have a chat.
Upon hearing this, Wei Ronghua immediately greeted the steward of the Wu family who was standing next to Hu Geng, and then turned around to invite them in to rest.
