Chapter 219 Meeting the Deng Family
Upon seeing her, Shu Yu immediately smiled, "Boss lady, I'd like these three bottles of wine, how much?"
The woman looked up, a smile playing on her lips. "Let me see."
She took the bottle and started calculating with her abacus as she looked at it.
Shu Yu leaned slightly against the counter. Seeing that she had finished calculating, he took out two strings of copper coins and placed them on the counter.
After paying, she smiled and asked, "Are you the second young mistress of the Jiang family?"
The woman paused, her hand, which was reaching for the copper coin, slightly faltering. She looked up at her with a puzzled expression, "You are...?"
"My surname is Lu. I became friends with the second daughter of the Ding family by chance. Yuehua mentioned you to me and spoke highly of you."
It's quite a coincidence that she is Er Ya, Ding Yuehua is the second young lady of the Ding family, and Deng Shi is the second young mistress of the Jiang family.
They're all pretty silly.
Upon hearing Ding Yuehua's name, Deng's gaze towards Shu Yu instantly became much more friendly. "So you're Yuehua's friend. Then I'll have to give you a discount."
As he spoke, he was about to push the copper coin she had just placed on the counter back.
"No, I didn't mention her to take advantage of her. I just happened to need to buy some wine, and I remembered Yuehua saying that Second Grandmother and her husband are honest and kind in business, and their products are good. I'm also curious about Second Grandmother, so I came here to buy some wine."
Shu Yu didn't take the copper coins, but picked up the three jugs of wine. "Alright, I've bought everything, so I'll be going now. When is Second Madam free? You can come and chat with Yuehua. By the way, I opened a shop on Ningshui Street. Come and visit sometime."
After saying that, she picked up the wine bottle and left cleanly and neatly.
Ms. Deng was stunned and hurriedly ran out from behind the counter.
She wanted to call out to Shu Yu, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she saw someone rushing towards her. This person didn't even look where they were going and bumped right into Shu Yu.
After the collision, he frowned and questioned unhappily, "Are you blind? Didn't you see me...?"
He was halfway through his sentence when he looked up and saw Shu Yu's face. His eyes lit up immediately, and he changed the subject and said with a smile, "Are you alright, miss? Did I bump into you and hurt you? Oh, I'm so sorry, I was in a hurry and didn't watch where I was going."
As the man reached out to pull her, Shu Yu immediately took two steps back, her eyes filled with disgust. She didn't even bother to talk to him and nimbly walked past him.
The man's expression changed, and he turned to chase after her, "Hey, miss, please wait a moment."
Seeing that he was about to block someone, Deng quickly stepped forward and stopped him. "Why did you come here, Third Brother? Is there something you need to see your Second Brother? Come in quickly, your Second Brother is inside."
Jiang Sanshao was getting impatient and tried to push her away, but before he could even touch her, Jiang Yi came out and called out to him loudly, "Third Brother."
Jiang Sanshao frowned. It was too late to stop Shu Yu now. She had already gotten into the mule cart and driven away.
Jiang Sanshao was somewhat annoyed and turned around to scold Deng Shi, but then he seemed to remember something and quickly composed himself, smiling at Deng Shi and asking, "Second Sister-in-law, who was that girl just now? What's her name, and where does she live?"
When Deng saw his expression, how could she not guess what he was thinking?
This man used to be a spoiled brat. Relying on the Jiang family's influence in Jiangyuan County and his good relationship with the former magistrate, he ruined countless girls from good families.
