Time flies.
Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
As early autumn arrives, the weather gradually cools down.
After a long period of preparation, Nanguan Street has gradually opened for business.
The opening was not a big deal, and Nanguan Street, which had been idle for a long time, saw almost no visitors.
If it weren't for the firecrackers set off at the opening ceremony, no one would have known that someone was actually opening a business on Nanguan Street.
Who has the courage to open a business on this street at this time?
Some people were curious and went over to take a look, only to find that it was just a few cloth shops, and their interest immediately waned.
In the capital, everyone knows that only Wen's Cloth Shop has the best business.
It seems that everyone knows the Wen family.
When it came to Wen Wan'er of the Wen family in this generation, she was the number one embroiderer in the capital. The embroidered garments were so popular that even the empresses in the palace would place orders with her.
I really don't know who's so reckless as to open a fabric shop in the capital at this time, especially on Nanguan Street.
In their eyes, he was just a rich man's son who had nothing better to do than come to the capital to spend money like a child.
Everyone was waiting for someone to slink away.
These past few days, Wen's Cloth Shop has been doing exceptionally well. The shop is bustling with people, and everyone is so busy they barely have time to breathe.
They get busy as soon as they open and don't get a chance to rest until closing time in the evening.
In just a few days, the business of Wen's Cloth Shop doubled, and more than a dozen people were too busy to keep up with the demand.
Later, after consulting with Wen Wan'er, two more clever maids were transferred over.
This gives them a chance to catch their breath amidst their busy schedules.
That day, as soon as Wen's Cloth Shop opened, a group of customers poured in to buy fabrics.
They were practically fighting over it, but they couldn't buy much—just enough material for one garment.
Within an hour of the shop opening, every piece of fabric in the store was rapidly disappearing.
Wen Wan'er heard about the situation here and rushed over immediately after returning from out of town.
She knew about the sudden improvement in the cloth shop's business, but since she was out of town, she could only send someone back to handle it first, so as not to ruin the Wen family's long-standing reputation.
As soon as she got off the carriage, Wen Wan'er, disregarding her fatigue from the journey, immediately headed towards the cloth shop.
Wen Wan'er was young, but she learned the Wen family's unique skills. Unfortunately, Wen Wan'er was also a person with a tragic fate.
Five years ago, Wen Wan'er got married. Not long after her marriage, her husband died, and she had to return to her parents' home to make a living.
Who would have thought that Wen Wan'er would become famous because of this?
It wasn't that she was unlucky, but rather that her skills gradually came to the attention of the public.
The garments she embroiders are all incredibly expensive and extremely rare.
Even so, the prominent ladies of the capital were proud to own a dress embroidered by Wen Wan'er.
Wen Wan'er strode inside and immediately saw the bustling scene in the store.
When the shopkeeper saw Wen Wan'er arrive, he quickly came over to greet her.
"Miss, you're back?" The shopkeeper was a man in his fifties named Zhang Li, an elder of the Wen family. He had watched Wen Wan'er being born and growing up. Who would have thought that Wen Wan'er, who had always had a smooth life, would marry into such a family and ultimately bring trouble upon her.
Fortunately, Wen Wan'er was able to survive thanks to the Wen family's culinary skills.
Thinking back to how grand Wen Wan'er's wedding was five years ago...
The Wen family was an old family in the capital. No one from their family had become an official, but their cloth shop was famous in the capital. Unexpectedly, Wen Wan'er married such a short-lived man. At the same time, the Wen family suffered a misfortune that year. Both of Wen Wan'er's brothers died unexpectedly. The Wen family, which had been prosperous for many years, was almost in ruins. It was Wen Wan'er who returned to take charge and brought the Wen family together as it is today.
The Wen family is still the same Wen family, but now they have no choice but to let Wen Wan'er take charge of the overall situation.
Manager Zhang lamented the unfairness of fate and felt sorry for Wen Wan'er.
"Uncle Zhang, has the shop been like this for the past few days?"
"Yes, business has never been this booming before." Speaking of business, Manager Zhang couldn't stop smiling.
Business has been booming these past few days, so he's even taken out a lot of the fabric that was piling up in the warehouse and sold it.
Thinking about this makes me even happier.
This material was purchased a few years ago when the two young masters were managing the Wen family's cloth shop. It was very expensive at the time, and they bought a lot of it at once. Later, they found out they had been cheated, and when the two young masters went to settle accounts, the person had already run away.
For so many years, it's been sitting in the warehouse like a big rock, but now it's finally settled.
After being stored for several years, it was finally able to be sold at a profitable price, and this time the heavy burden on my heart was finally lifted.
Wen Wan'er wasn't particularly striking in appearance; she was rather ordinary-looking, like a young lady from an ordinary family. The only thing people could remember about Wen Wan'er was her cooking skills.
Wen Wan'er stood to the side and watched for a while, then looked at Zhang Li and asked, "Do you also feel that our Wen family has never been this busy before?"
Manager Zhang was initially happy, but upon hearing this, he couldn't smile anymore.
Looking at Wen Wan'er, and seeing the worry on her face, he realized that he had been too happy too soon.
The sudden surge in popularity is clearly not normal.
How could he have overlooked this?
Seeing that Manager Zhang understood, Wen Wan'er took the lead and walked towards the backyard.
Manager Zhang glanced at the bustling scene before him, quickly wiped away the cold sweat that had just broken out, and followed them into the backyard.
Upon arriving at the backyard, I saw Wen Wan'er standing in the garden. "Miss?"
"Find an excuse to close the door and take a break."
"Yes." Manager Zhang is no ordinary person; he must have some skills to sit in the manager's position.
