Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Haicheng, Haicheng
The day Shu Niannian received the letter was a Friday. She did not dare to delay and went home after school to say hello to her family and went straight to the train station. Li Guifen was worried that Shu Niannian would not be safe alone, so she asked Shu Wenhui to go with her.
It’s true. Shu Niannian was a little nervous at first, but now that Shu Wenhui was going to Haicheng with her, she felt a lot more at ease.
The two first walked to the county town, caught the 9 pm train to Haicheng, and when they got out of the Haicheng railway station, it was already 11:30 pm. At this time in Haicheng, except for the railway station, there were still a few lights, and the rest of the place was dark.
What should I do?
Shu Niannian thought, it was so cold, she couldn't stay on the street with her brother all night!
She was so anxious about the cream that she neglected it. She didn't expect that if we go back more than ten years, there wouldn't even be a night market in the huge Haicheng.
Shu Niannian was shivering from the cold. Shu Wenhui stood in front of her and subconsciously wanted to block the wind for Shu Niannian, but it had no effect.
The wind is blowing from all directions and cannot be stopped.
Shu Niannian stamped her feet, gathered the monkey cotton on her body, led the way, and motioned Shu Wenhui to follow her.
"Where are you going?"
Not sure if she was thinking about insomnia, Shu Niannian laughed, "Let's try our luck. If we're lucky, maybe we can still sleep in bed tonight."
Shu Wenhui had never been to Haicheng and was not familiar with the place at all. He thought Shu Niannian would take him to a small guesthouse. He didn't have high requirements and just wanted a guesthouse with a bed.
Who would have thought that Shu Niannian would take him straight to the city center. The guesthouses in the city center were more magnificent than each other, and Shu Niannian seemed to have stopped in front of the most magnificent guesthouse.
On this street, there are only two guesthouses with bright lights on, and this guesthouse with a shining red star on the door is one of them.
Shu Niannian explained to him, "This guesthouse is a state-owned enterprise. They have a night shift because many civil servants on business trips come to stay at night. This is equivalent to the post station in ancient times. As long as you come with the documents, the post station must accept you unconditionally."
The two stood in front of the door of the guesthouse. Shu Wenhui became more and more nervous because of what Shu Niannian said. This kind of place, let alone late at night, even during the day, was not a place for country folk like them to come.
Shu Wenhui wanted to pull Shu Niannian away quickly, but Shu Niannian rushed out and went straight to the reception desk in two steps. Shu Wenhui was very nervous, fearing that Shu Niannian would offend someone she shouldn't offend. When he chased to the front desk, he heard Shu Niannian ask, "I am Ye Jinhong's family member. My name is Shu Niannian. Please take me to his suite."
The lady at the front desk was also a worldly-wise person. She checked the information for Shu Niannian and saw that Shu Niannian's name was actually written in the column for Ye Jinhong's family members.
Seeing that the information matched, the eldest sister took Shu Niannian to the suite on the second floor without saying a word. She turned on the light for Shu Niannian, left the key to her, and turned and left.
Shu Niannian breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she finally wouldn't have to shiver in the cold on the street today.
Shu Wenhui was stunned. Oh my God, this is the first time I have seen such a nice house in my life, Shu Wenhui thought.
"This is?"
Shu Wenhui didn't know what to say anymore. Shu Niannian turned on the heating and went to turn on the water heater as if he knew the place well. "Brother, this is Ye Jinhong's suite. Grandpa and I stayed here last time. I just tried my luck. Fortunately, the lady at the front desk had a record of my last stay, so she let me in."
Shu Wenhui: "No, I just heard you tell that lady that you are Ye Jinhong's family member."
Shu Niannian, who was washing her face, felt a little hot in her ears. "The last time Ye Jinhong brought my grandfather here, he said the same thing. If he didn't say that, they wouldn't let us stay. This is all in accordance with the rules!"
Shu Niannian took the cold water and splashed it on her face, talking nonsense.
But Shu Wenhui believed it.
Yes, such a nice suite will not be allowed to stay unless you are a family member.
After the long journey, both of them were very tired. After Shu Niannian washed up, Shu Wenhui also washed up quickly. Then they each had a room. Shu Wenhui fell asleep immediately, but Shu Niannian tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
She pulled the quilt higher, covered her head with it and laughed silently. She really just came here to try her luck.
The next day, Shu Niannian slept until 9 o'clock before getting up. After having a quick breakfast on the street, Shu Niannian took Shu Wenhui to Miaoshou Huichun. Before entering the door, Shu Niannian heard Zhang Chunlai sighing.
Zhang Chunyang wondered what was going on. The business had just started to pick up, but quality problems arose?
Is this my destined life to be a miserable one?
His letter had been sent out two days ago. If Shu Niannian didn't come soon, the plaque of his shop would be taken down!
When Shu Niannian stepped into the door, she saw Zhang Chunyang with his head drooping, like an eggplant hit by frost, looking lifeless.
"What's wrong? Why do you look so listless?" Shu Niannian looked at Zhang Chunyang with a smile.
Hearing Shu Niannian's voice, Zhang Chunyang looked up suddenly and said with great joy, "Oh my little ancestor, you're finally here!"
Shu Niannian put the bag on the counter and asked, "Tell me, what happened?"
Zhang Chunyang did not dare to delay and explained the whole story in a concise manner. The matter was very simple. One of Sister Chen's "fellow patients" once met Sister Chen on the street. She begged Sister Chen to introduce her to a doctor who treated acne. Sister Chen did not hide anything and told the "fellow patient" the address of the doctor who treated acne.
This person's name is Li Mei. Li Mei is a very smart person. She first asked Zhang Chunyang about the cream, and then asked Zhang Chunyang to cut her pulse for free. She proposed the idea of trying the cream's effect, "We don't have any stock in our store. The cream you sent is reserved by others. After it is sent, it will be taken away the next day. Where can I get the cream for her to try? Besides, our creams are all customized and vary from person to person. Other people's creams will not be suitable for her to use."
Shu Niannian tapped her fingers on the counter a few times, frowning slightly, "What happened next?"
"When she heard that there were no trial packs, Li Mei left. But she came back the next day. She paid a 10 yuan deposit and ordered a box of medicated cream. I told her that according to her condition, the medicated cream alone would not work. It would only be effective if it was combined with Chinese medicine. Li Mei listened to my advice and took a course of Chinese medicine from the store. I didn't expect that after just ten days, her face would break out in small pimples like hives."
Shu Niannian's brows tightened little by little. From these circumstances alone, there was no clue. Zhang Chunyang continued to nag, "After Li Mei developed a rash on her face, she came to make trouble twice, saying that she wanted to see you and even said that she wanted to smash the shop. I thought that if you came, you might be able to find the cause of her rash, so I wrote to ask you to come over."
Shu Niannian nodded in understanding, "You are right. If you want to run a business for a long time, you must be able to solve problems for your customers. Otherwise, any business will only be short-lived."
As soon as Shu Niannian finished speaking, an impatient, angry female voice came from a distance, "Has the person who prepared the cream arrived?"
Hearing this girl's words, Zhang Chunyang was so scared that his body trembled. Shu Niannian patted Zhang Chunyang on the shoulder. It was not Zhang Chunyang's fault that he was timid. It was really that Li Mei was too bad. Shu Niannian felt that she was not a good person just by looking at her from a distance.
"I'm here." Shu Niannian said, "Did you bring the cream? Let me show you what's going on."
Li Mei slammed the cream heavily on the counter and spoke harshly, "Oh, I thought it was a good thing, but who would have thought it was a three-no product. How dare you sell it? Aren't you afraid of trademark checks?!"
When she was young, Shu Niannian liked to argue with others, but now, after her past life, she was no longer in the age of making a fuss. She took some cream out of the box and smeared it on the back of her hand. After gently spreading it, she smelled it and said to Li Mei, "This is not our cream. It should be a counterfeit product. Are you sure you bought it from Miaoshou Huichun?"
