Chapter 414 This voice sounds familiar
As Shu Yu thought about it, she stood up to open the door. When she got to the door, she finally remembered who the person was.
Sure enough, as soon as the door opened, she saw Madam Deng standing at the door with two jugs of wine, smiling at her.
Shu Yu quickly stepped aside, "Mrs. Jiang is here, come in quickly."
She really didn't expect the person who came to be Deng Shi. Just now, with a door between them and her voice lowered, Shu Yu almost didn't remember.
When Mrs. Deng entered, she greeted the old lady.
The old lady recognized her and knew she was the owner of Jixiang Wine Shop, so she quickly stood up and said, "Mrs. Jiang is here. Please sit down and I'll make you a cup of tea."
Deng placed the wine bottle on the table in the main room and apologized to Shu Yu, "I'm sorry to bother you. I originally wanted to go to your shop to find you, but Manager Lu said you weren't there, so I couldn't wait and came directly here."
The old lady brought over the tea, but without disturbing us, she put it down and went back to her work in the yard.
Shu Yu asked, "Is there something you need, Second Madam?"
They can't wait any longer; it seems like something urgent has come up.
Madam Deng pursed her lips. "I know Miss Lu is skilled. I saw Yuehua's makeup last time. Tomorrow, I would like to ask Miss Lu to help me with my makeup a little."
This was business that came knocking on her door, so Shu Yu naturally couldn't refuse.
"That's no problem. May I ask what your requirements are regarding makeup, Second Madam?"
After a moment of contemplation, Ms. Deng said in a low voice, "My cousin is hosting a dinner tomorrow, and we haven't seen each other for many years. However, we still have a good relationship. She... is of noble status, and I was thinking that when I go to see her, I can't be too shabby and embarrass her. But I also can't be too ostentatious and steal the show. I'll just dress up a little to show my respect. Do you understand, Miss Lu?"
Although Deng was formerly the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, Jiang Yi was not favored, so she only had two or three maids and servants around her, and she did many things herself. Naturally, she didn't have much money, and her clothes and appearance were not very exquisite.
After they separated their households, the couple ran the Jixiang Wine Shop on their own, doing everything themselves and always wearing aprons, not to mention dressing up.
Speaking of which, it's been a long time since Ms. Deng has dressed herself up properly.
But this time it was different. She couldn't go to see her cousin in her drab clothes like before.
Ms. Deng couldn't say exactly how important her cousin's status was, so her answer was somewhat vague.
But Shu Yu happened to be the one who knew the identity of Deng's cousin, the second wife of the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, which was indeed very valuable in this small Jiangyuan County.
So the Chang family arrived at this time?
Shu Yu originally intended to get to know the Chang family through the Deng family, and to try his best to get the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, who was in charge of the Shu family's case, to help out when the time was right.
However, after meeting Xiang Weinan, he learned that Xiang Weinan had also been involved in the Shu family's affairs, and that in this incident, he might not have had less power than the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.
So Shu Yu simply tried to build a good relationship with Xiang Weinan. After all, the two had already crossed paths before, so why bother going to the trouble of going through the Chang family?
Unexpectedly, at this time, the Chang family came to Jiangyuan County.
"Miss Lu? Is there a problem?"
“Of course, no problem.” Shu Yu smiled. “I have a pretty good idea of what to do. Just come to the shop first thing tomorrow morning, and I’ll make sure you’re dressed up perfectly.”
"Okay, thank you very much, Miss Lu."
