The clerk continued to greet customers warmly.

Lu Zhiran glanced at Zixiang beside him, and Zixiang slowly pulled out a brand new contract from her sleeve.

This contract was the title deed of this shop. Lu Zhiran took it and showed it to the clerk.

When the clerk saw the content, he was shocked.

Then she looked at Lu Zhiran and asked in disbelief: "Are you Miss Lu Zhiran?"

In order to let Lu Nianyao replace Lu Zhiran and marry into the Marquis' Mansion, Lu's mother changed the deeds of all the shops to Lu Zhiran's name.

All of this now benefited Lu Zhiran. Really, Lu Zhiran's mother's action was so powerful that it made Lu Zhiran's original resentment towards her disappear a little.

It's just that realistic, after all, money can move people's hearts!

Lu Zhiran nodded, responding to the clerk's words.

The clerk was completely stunned. She had never thought that the owner of the shop would come and inspect the store in person. Before, she always asked her maid to come and take a look.

Lu Zhiran smiled slightly and asked the shop owner, "Can I see the embroiderer in our shop now?"

The clerk stammered, "In the backyard, the embroiderer is embroidering clothes. Madam, I'll take you there right away!"

Lu Ziran looked at the girl who was about the same age as him, and gently comforted the clerk: "You don't have to be nervous, I don't eat people."

You don't eat people, but she is afraid!

The clerk was crying internally.

She was now worried that she would be fired by Lu Zhiran if she didn't perform well.

"Then take me there now!"

Lu Zhiran's attitude remained gentle.

The clerk took Lu Zhiran to the backyard, but secretly glanced at Lu Zhiran out of the corner of his eyes. It was really amazing. These nobles usually came here with arrogance. This was the first time she saw someone so friendly to her.

"What's your name?"

The little girl looked at herself secretly.

Lu Zhiran was bored and started to ask: "My name is Xiaoer!"

Lu Zhiran: "Waiter?"

Lu Zhiran was puzzled. "Why is there such a strange name? Isn't Xiaoer the name of the waiter in an inn or restaurant?"

The clerk's voice sounded a little lonely when he mentioned this.

"I didn't have a name at first. My father said women didn't deserve names. I was called Xiao Er because I have an older sister. My father called me the second child to distinguish me from him. That's how I got the name."

Lu Zhiran was stunned.

She was just thinking, usually shops are run by men, why would a woman be allowed to show up in public? The waitress must have something special to be able to stand here.

Moreover, this world favors boys over girls, and especially after the current emperor was defeated in the battle, the discipline of women has become even stricter.

Generally speaking, women will not show up in public unless they have no other choice, as they will be criticized.

It turns out that Xiao Er had such an experience.

"Madam, I have two younger brothers at home. If I go back, they will be sold by my father. That's how my sister was sold to the old butcher in the village. If I did anything to offend you just now, you can beat me or scold me, but please don't fire me."

"I don't want to go back, please miss."

The waiter spoke nervously.

Then he looked at Lu Zhiran eagerly, like a pitiful stray dog.

Lu Zhiran nodded, then laughed again, "What gave you the illusion that you had offended me?"

The waiter spoke carefully, "But the Madam has been laughing, and I'm scared."

It is said that a biting dog never barks. The calmer and gentler the dog is, the more dangerous it is. On the contrary, those who beat and scold people at every turn will just be beaten and scolded once, and then the matter will be over.

Lu Zhiran: “???”

……

Lu Zhiran followed the waiter to the backyard and walked into the room, where a woman in her twenties was sitting, embroidering an exquisite red wedding dress. Lu Zhiran looked at her and was stunned.

She knew this woman, Liu Yun, who was also one of the people Lu Nianyao hated the most in her previous life.

Because she was one of Fu Yuzhang's concubines.

I didn't expect that before Liu Yun became Fu Yuzhang's woman, she was working as an embroiderer here.

Lu Zhiran came back to his senses, walked over, looked at the embroidery in Liu Yun's hand, and exclaimed: "It's very well embroidered."

Suddenly someone spoke and Liu Yun was startled.

She raised her head and glanced at Lu Zhiran, then glanced at her decorations, knowing that this was a noble person.

His attitude immediately became respectful.

"You are too kind, ma'am."

Lu Zhiran looked at her with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "Your craftsmanship is really amazing, can I ask you to embroider a piece of clothing for me?"

Liu Yun's eyes lit up. He didn't expect to get such a job. "Of course, Madam, what kind of clothes do you want to embroider?"

Lu Zhiran looked at her with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "Your craftsmanship is really amazing, can I ask you to embroider a piece of daily clothing for me?"

Liu Yun's eyes lit up. He didn't expect to get such a job. "Of course, Madam, what kind of clothes do you want to embroider?"

Lu Zhiran thought for a moment and said, "I want to embroider a skirt for women. I can embroider some flowers on the collar, ... plum blossoms, and some other patterns..."

Liu Yun nodded. She had received many of these orders and had some experience. She said, "Madam, don't worry. I will embroider these flowers vividly according to your requirements."

Lu Zhiran nodded with satisfaction, took out some silver from his purse, and handed it to Liu Yun: "This is the deposit, and there will be a tip if you do a good job."

Liu Yun took the silver and his eyes lit up.

"Don't worry, ma'am. I won't let you down."

Liu Yun was full of energy at this moment and couldn't wait to embroider clothes for Lu Zhiran.

Liu Yun was very happy, and Lu Zhiran was also very happy.

If at the beginning, Lu Zhiran's purpose was just to come and inspect the store and understand the situation.

I never thought that I would have such an unexpected gain.

As for Fu Yuzhang, Lu Zhiran's idea is very simple, just don't provoke her, and the two of them can just live in peace.

But now, Zhang Xiangxiu is the only one in power in Fu Yuzhang's backyard. She comes from a merchant family, and it is too conspicuous for her to occupy the position of the wife of the marquis. After all, her status is not worthy of her, and her family is not supportive, so it is all in vain.

This is not something that can be changed overnight.

It will take a long time for Lu Zhiran to gain a foothold in the Fu Mansion. Even with the help of the old lady, there will still be people who come to cause trouble.

For example, Zhang Xiangxiu dared to come and provoke on the first day she entered the Marquis' Mansion. She was so arrogant to the extreme.

How could Lu Zhiran have so much energy to deal with them!

Now... the ready-made candidate is right in front of us. Zhang Xiangxiu is too idle, so Lu Zhiran will find something for her to do, and Liu Yun will go over to share the favor with her, and see if she still has time to find something to do.

At that time, Lu Zhiran only needs to watch the fire from the other side of the river and reap the benefits!
