Chapter 231 The Shock of the Nearby Shopkeeper
Ding Yuehua looked resentful. "It's that third young master of the Jiang family, the one who got engaged to my third sister but then came to break off the engagement."
Shu Yu frowned. "Young Master Jiang?"
"I have never met the third young master of the Jiang family."
Ding Yuehua, “Mrs. Deng said that when you went out yesterday, you were bumped into by Young Master Jiang. He saw your appearance and set his sights on you. He originally asked Mrs. Deng to inquire about your background, but Mrs. Deng didn’t say. So he plans to investigate himself, and he estimates that with the Jiang family’s capabilities, they will find out your identity in the next two days.”
As she spoke, she looked at Shu Yu carefully and, seeing her furrowed brows, breathed a slight sigh of relief. "I have to warn you first. The Jiang family's business is indeed quite large, and they are wealthy. But that Third Young Master Jiang is not a good match at all. Most importantly, he has taken a liking to you but will not marry you. Madam Deng said that Third Young Master Jiang thinks you are just a country girl who can be easily won over. The kind of person he is, he'll just play around and that's it. At most, he'll only take a concubine."
Shu Yu was slightly taken aback by her words, then chuckled and said, "Are you worried that I won't be able to resist the temptations of the Jiang family and will be tricked into becoming Jiang Sanshao's concubine?"
Ding Yuehua chuckled dryly and touched the gauze on her forehead. "I just wanted to give you a heads-up."
"Don't worry, I know what kind of person Jiang Sanshao is. I'm not so tired of living as to go and make trouble for myself by going to him."
Ding Yuehua laughed, "That's good. You're so capable, you can't waste your time in a place like the Jiang family mansion. However, Young Master Jiang is just a spoiled brat, he does things without any scruples, and his parents give him whatever he wants. He's set his sights on you, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for him to give up. You, do you have any plans?"
"Not for now, but don't worry. We'll deal with whatever comes our way. I'll be fine."
Ding Yuehua nodded and turned to leave, but in the end she was still worried, so she turned back and whispered in her ear, "I heard that on the day you opened your business, the county magistrate sent you a congratulatory gift. I won't ask what your relationship is. But if you really can't get away, try to ask the county magistrate for help."
"I know what I'm doing."
"Also, if you need any help, I will try my best to help you." But her family is evenly matched with the Jiang family, and she doesn't do things as freely as Jiang Sanshao, so the help she can give Shu Yu is probably limited.
But that's not what Shu Yu thought; Ding Yuehua had actually helped her a lot.
For example, getting to know the Deng family, and today's clearance sale.
She was also grateful to Ding Yuehua for coming to deliver the letter to her.
So Shu Yu's expression became even more amiable. "Thank you."
Ding Yuehua smiled and returned to her friends' side. By this time, everyone had paid the bill and was ready to leave.
Several carriages stopped again in front of the shop, and a large group of people boarded the carriages, some even waving goodbye to Shu Yu with reluctance.
"Mr. Lu, remember the clothes we ordered? You'd better get them out as soon as possible."
"Mr. Lu, we'll be leaving now."
Shu Yu waved and watched the carriages gradually disappear into the distance.
She only turned around after she had completely gone far away.
Before she could even step back into her shop, someone else darted past her and into the store.
Shu Yu looked closely and realized that these were the shopkeepers from several nearby shops. What were they doing suddenly coming to her shop?
Just as she was about to ask, she heard several shopkeepers' surprised voices, "That's all? All the clothes are sold out?"
