Chapter 90: So it was the Yu Family’s Shop

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio     Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Shu Yu asked about the situation as she walked, “What did the shop use to sell? Why have they closed their business?

“I won’t hide it from Miss Lu. The shop originally sold makeup. It’s Wenlan

Town’s Yu family’s shop.”

Shu Yu stopped in her tracks, “The Yu family?”

“Yes, this shop was originally managed by Madame Yu, but two days ago, Madame Yu suddenly fell seriously ill and didn’t have the energy to run the shop. Lord Yu doesn’t know much about makeup, and there was also another makeup shop opposite, so the business was average. As such, he decided to simply rent it out. Miss Lu, you’re just lucky.”

Shu Yu laughed dryly. That’s right, she was lucky. She was the one who caused all those things in the Yu family.

It looked like Lord Yu intended to use Madame Yu l s “illness” to trap her in the manor. It made sense though. If news of Madame Yu l s adultery were to spread, Lord Yu would lose face.

As they spoke, the two of them had already reached Ningshui Street.

This street was located in the center of Jiangyuan County. It was wide and clean, and could accommodate three to four carriages traveling side by side.

Intermediary Quan took her to the end of the street. Compared to the head of the street and the middle, this place seemed a little more deserted.

However, Shu Yu didn’t mind the desolation, because this area was where only those with some wealth in the county would come to.

Restaurants, makeup stores, banks, and fabric shops were all not far from here.

“Miss Lu, this is the place. Come in.”

Shu Yu followed him into the door. The makeup store had not been completely cleared out. Intermediary Quan said that the slightly better makeup products had long been bought at a low price by the shops across the street who heard the news.

The Yu family’s shop wasn’t very big. There was a small courtyard at the back, and it was tiny with only two small rooms and a kitchen.

At this moment, the Yu family’s butler was in the small courtyard instructing the servants to throw away all the bedding and furniture in the room.

Looking at his disdainful face, it seemed…

Shu Yu wondered if this shop was one of the places where Madame Yu had a tryst with her lover.

The butler turned around when he heard the commotion.

Intermediary Quan came forward and said a few words. The butler turned his gaze to Shu Yu, “You’re the one who wants to rent the shop?”

Shu Yu smiled, ‘Yes, our family wants to start a small business, so we asked Intermediary Quan to help us keep an eye out.”

“The rent for our shop is not cheap. It costs this much,” The butler stretched out his hand and gestured a number.

Let alone Shu Yu, even Intermediary Quan was shocked. This small shop cost five taels of silver a month? That was a bit of a scam. The rent for the shops around here only asked for three or four taels of silver.

Shu Yu felt that the Yu family was killing pigs. From the way the butler acted, they didn’t seem to want to rent it to her either.

It seemed that the two tenants that were coming later were more powerful. They had even revealed the rent they were willing to pay.

Shu Yu was silent for a moment. Just as Intermediary Quan was trying to mediate and help bargain, she looked up again and said to the butler, “The rent is indeed a little expensive, but the location of this shop is very rare. I really like it.”

Intermediary Quan was anxious as he thought to himself, “Gosh, Miss Lu, you can’t lower the price like this. You even told him that you like the place a lot. Wouldn’t that mean that we won’t even be able to negotiate a single coin?

Didn’t she see the butler’s smug expression? At this time, she should pretend as if she wanted to leave.

As expected, Miss Lu was still too young. He had been deceived by her overly calm and composed expression, thus thinking that she had long matured..
