Chapter 192 - 192: Seemingly Going to Make a Loss



As soon as Madam Li finished speaking, Madam Liang jumped over, “And me, and me. I know how to make clothes too!”

Madam Ruan laughed awkwardly. They did know how to make clothes, but the products were limited to the extent that they could be worn. They couldn’t make clothes that were exquisite and beautiful.

She looked at her two sisters-in-law and said hesitantly, “Well, your family is quite busy, so how can I trouble you? Just to make clothes, I have to live in the county and can’t go back every day.”

Madam Li frowned, “We can’t go back? It doesn’t matter where the clothes are made. It’s not like they’re expensive. If you’re afraid of getting them dirty, can’t we just wash them after we’re done?”

Madam Ruan suddenly understood what it meant to be a chicken talking to a duck. Her rejection had been quite obvious. Moreover, the clothes were indeed very expensive. A good piece of clothing cost several taels of silver.

When she made the clothes, she would trim her fingernails and apply hand cream. She also kept the table neat and tidy, as well as the room clean. On top of that, she requested that no one disturbed her. The whole family placed a lot of importance on the whole matter, so of course, they couldn’t just do it casually.

Madam Li wanted to say more, but the old lady walked over and glared at Madam Li and Madam Liang, “What good clothes can you make with your dog paws? Let me tell you, don’t touch the clothes in Erbai’s shop. Otherwise, I’ll cut your hands off!”

The two of them were scolded until they shrunk their necks. The old lady glared at Madam Ruan and said, “Yu is in charge of hiring people for the shop. The next time you meet people who want to work in the shop, tell them to go to Yu. Let me tell you, if you dare to take over and hold Yu back, you’d better get lost as soon as possible.”

Madam Ruan shook her head hurriedly, “I won’t hold her back.”

At this moment, Lu Erbai called out, “Mom, it’s time!”

It was time to open for business.

The old lady hurriedly tidied up her clothes and hurried to the door.

Lu Erbai stood by the side, leaning against the door with his walking stick, one hand tugging at the end of a piece of red silk that covered the signboard on the roof of the shop. He looked at his family with slight excitement.

After a while, he took a deep breath and said to Shu Yu, “Light it.”

Shu Yu held a lighter and lit the firecrackers that had been spread out long ago. In the next moment, a crackling sound suddenly rang in everyone’s ears. Daya protected Dahu and Sanya as they hurriedly ran into the shop.

Lu Erbai raised his head, and with a forceful tug of his right hand, the red silk cloth was pulled away, revealing the words on the plaque: Yiren Pavilion.

The so-called Yiren symbolized ladies who were the object of fantasies.

Shu Yu felt that the meaning was quite good. It was simple and easy to understand, and it was also elegant to read.

After the firecrackers were set off, many were attracted by the commotion. Some children who were watching the show ran over happily.

However, no one came inside. They just stood outside and watched.

The doors of Yiren Pavilion were very wide. Even if one stood outside, one could see what was inside.

Therefore, everyone quickly found out that this was a ready-to-wear clothes shop, and it was one that didn’t have many clothes. All of them instantly lost interest.

Madam Li and Madam Liang chattered at the side, “Why aren’t there any customers? It’s already so quiet on the opening day… It doesn’t look like they’re going to make money at all.”

Madam Liang was quite worried. She did hope that her second brother-in-law’s family would make money. After all, she was hoping to get some benefits.

Madam Li was gloating, “They made such a big fuss earlier, but it looks like they’re going to lose money..”
