Shu Yu followed Butler Yu to take a look at the remaining makeup products. To be honest, they were quite good. Except for a few that were truthfully not very good, the remaining twenty boxes of makeup were better than the ones Cuihua and the others bought from the cosmetic shop in town.
After Shu Yu thanked him, Butler Yu left with Intermediary Quan who had received the commission.
Shu Yu stayed behind to look at the shop. Now, she was the only one left in the shop. She started thinking about how to decorate it according to the layout.

Lord knows about her family’s situation, and with such a connection, he knows that her family has been frightened and suffered an unexpected disaster. Never mind if we didn’t meet anyone from their family, but since we have, we will help them as much as we can to calm their nerves. I didn’t waive the rent out of consideration for the little girl’s self-esteem. However, if this matter were to spread, it would inevitably disrupt the market.”
Intermediary Quan understood tacitly, “I understand, I understand.”
Butler Yu gave Intermediary Quan a tael of silver and left with a smile.
The Yu family didn’t think much about the rent of one shop. If it was possible, the Lord even wanted to sell the shop. However, he had just announced to the public that Madame Yu was seriously ill. If he eagerly sold the shop she managed, it was inevitable that outsiders would speculate and cause more trouble. It wouldn’t be too late to rent it for a while and sell it after the storm had passed.
Moreover, after the Lord heard the words of the Daoist nun, he had been doing good deeds these days. He was especially concerned about children. It was only a given that the butler had to help the twins who had almost been involved since he had bumped into their family.
After looking around the shop, Shu Yu was very satisfied.
After that, she went to the fabric shop next door to buy some high-quality fabric. Then, she packed up the makeup products she had chosen and prepared to go back.
When she passed by the carriage store, Shu Yu paused. She had to buy a carriage. Never mind a horse carriage, but she would at least need a mule carriage. It would be convenient to deliver goods and travel.
She had asked around and found that there were not many horses in Jiangyuan County. Good horses were simply out of reach. The rich and powerful would go to the prefecture to buy them. Therefore, the price of a horse here was about fifteen to twenty-five taels.
Mules were much cheaper. The lowest was eight taels, and the highest was twelve taels.
Shu Yu hesitated for a moment, then turned around and went to the cattle market.

He had thought that he would be able to extort a huge sum of money from her since she looked young and ignorant look.
He didn’t expect that the little girl would manage to persuade him to sell the mule, which was originally twelve taels, for eleven taels instead. Not only that but the beautiful and sturdy carriage at the back had also been given to her for an exceptionally low price.
For the mule and the carriage, Shu Yu had paid twelve taels only. It was equivalent to the seller giving away such a good carriage for free.
Shu Yu was all smiles as she placed everything on the carriage. She lead the mule pulling the carriage all the way out of the city gate, then only did she sit on the shaft and head towards Shangshi Village.
She had already learned how to drive a carriage. The first two times she rented a carriage, she had communicated with the coachman and had even tried to drive the carriage herself.
Shu Yu was a good student, and the mule was well-behaved, so the journey was smooth.
As they arrived at the entrance of Shangshi Village, the carriage attracted the attention of the villagers.
In the entire village, there were at most two cows and one donkey. No one had actually bought a mule carriage before.
As Shu Yu had rented carriages twice, the villagers thought that she had rented one this time as well. They turned their heads and whispered to each other after taking a look..
