Bai Nuo looked at Zhang Wu with some surprise. She didn't know Zhang Wu would come, and she was even more surprised that Zhang Wu would give her a red envelope. These two siblings, one was dashing and debonair, exuding an approachable aura, and the other was dignified and beautiful. It was rare to see wealthy young men with such temperament.
Oh, and one more thing, Hu Mingmei also exudes an air of nobility.
Bai Nuo couldn't help but compare Zhang Wu and Hu Mingmei in her mind. Hu Mingmei was aloof, while Zhang Wu was approachable. One was like winter, and the other was like a warm spring.
However, Bai Nuo dared not get too close to either of them.
"Thank you, thank you! Please come in, both of you. Please forgive me for any shortcomings in our hospitality!" Bai Nuo smiled as she took the red envelope from Zhang Wu's hand and said with a smile, "Qiao'er, Young Master Zhang has arrived!"
Zhang Wu and Zhang Jingwen stepped inside.
"Miss Bai, congratulations on your grand opening!" Hu Mingmei and Lu Ying stood in front of Bai Nuo, and Lu Ying respectfully handed over a red envelope, which was also decorated with gold foil patterns.
"Thank you!" Bai Nuo smiled professionally and gestured for them to come in. "Please come in, both of you!"
This indicates that the business is targeting young women, so why are all these grown men here? Zhang Wu could be said to be accompanying a girl to buy jewelry, but what are Hu Mingmei and Lu Ying doing here?
Buying jewelry for his wives and concubines?
Didn't Hu Mingmei say she wasn't married yet?
Lu Ying bought it?
But didn't Lu Ying also say that they weren't married?
But guests are guests, and since they're already here, Bai Nuo has no reason to turn them away.
Or perhaps it's for my mother or sister?
Lu Ying went inside without thinking. Hu Mingmei was still looking at Bai Nuo, who felt flustered by Hu Mingmei's gaze.
"Wh...what are you doing?" I didn't sense any aura from this person when they were sick and unconscious, but when they regained consciousness and stood up, they felt that this person was extremely cold.
Bai Nuo glanced at Hu Mingmei awkwardly. He noticed that Hu Mingmei was wearing white boots under his long robe, and a white belt was tied around his waist. The outfit looked very well-matched.
Purple and white both suit him very well!
Bai Nuo was thinking to herself when her gaze fell on Hu Mingmei's waist, and she froze.
Hu Mingmei had a silver-white purse hanging from her waist.
Then...wasn't that purse hers?
At the time, she didn't have anything good to give Hu Mingmei in return, so she gave him half a bag of pearls. She put them in her purse to make it look nicer. She didn't think much of it when she gave it to him, but when Hu Mingmei openly hung the purse on his body, Bai Nuo's face flushed.
That purse... it just doesn't match his outfit at all...
Hu Mingmei continued to stare intently at Bai Nuo. Bai Nuo felt awkward and uncomfortable under his gaze, her hands and feet unsteady. She stammered, "W-what are you doing? Come in!"
Hu Mingmei chuckled lightly, glanced down at Bai Nuo with a disdainful look, and then spoke, "Your return gift is quite nice!"
That's why Lu Yingcai wasn't punished for making decisions on his own.
So... is that why he wore the purse on his person? Bai Nuo was still lost in his own thoughts when Hu Mingmei stepped inside. The cool morning breeze blew away all of Bai Nuo's random thoughts. Bai Nuo came to her senses and saw that the people at the door had already left, so she quickly went inside.
As soon as they entered, Jiang Sanniang waved to Bai Nuo. Li Jinyu, Zhang Jingwen, and some other new girls were all choosing. When Bai Nuo saw them, she believed Jiang Sanniang's words. Although the town was small, there were still quite a few wealthy people.
Zhang Wu sat at a table to the side, drinking tea. His slender, well-defined hands held the teacup. He sat by the window, his black hair flying in the wind, looking every bit the handsome man.
Hu Mingmei, on the other hand, is a different kind of handsome man.
Many girls stopped looking at the pearl bracelet and instead secretly glanced at the two of them, their faces blushing.
"They're truly amazing," Bai Nuo thought, feeling that their arrival had made her little shabby shop much more radiant. After Bai Nuo entered, Zhang Wutaiyan glanced at her, smiled, and Bai Nuo quickly smiled back before walking over to Jiang Sanniang and asking in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"Here's the money!" Jiang Sanniang said in a low voice, opening the counter. "Li Jinyu bought a necklace, Zhang Jingwen bought a bracelet and a necklace, and that lady is still looking around; she'll probably buy something!"
Bai Nuo followed Jiang San Niang's gaze and saw a woman dressed in an apricot-colored dress with her hair in a bun. She was about the same age as Jiang San Niang and had a maidservant with her. The two of them were talking, seemingly discussing something.
Bai Nuo doesn't have high requirements for jewelry. Selling three bracelets or necklaces a day is already very good. Selling one or two pieces a day is already good.
This kind of thing isn't a necessity, and since it's just starting out and there's still a small stock, she's satisfied with the daily business. Plus, she doesn't have to pay rent or labor costs, so she's making a profit no matter what.
Just like today, Jiang San Niang said that Li Jinyu bought a necklace, and Zhang Jingwen bought a bracelet and a necklace. They have already received ninety-four taels of revenue. Even if that lady doesn't buy anything, she won't lose money today. Besides, judging from that lady's appearance, she will still buy something.
They mainly do business with acquaintances.
