Neither Xie Yixiao nor Gu Xiang answered Jiang's words, and Jiang didn't ask any further questions. However, her good mood faded a lot that day. She resented Gu You for being ignorant and stupid, and even more resented Gu Yi for being vicious and cruel.
Would love to meet these two people.
"Whenever you see her in the future, just treat her as if you don't know her, and don't worry about her anymore."
The two nodded in agreement.
Xie Yixiao then talked about what happened to her at home, and how she solved some of the problems she encountered when opening Xizi Pavilion, finally coaxing the old lady into feeling better.
Finally, she took out her newly made plum blossom ointment and applied some to Jiang.
Although Mr. Jiang is no longer young, his hair has turned gray, his face has wrinkles, and his skin is also somewhat saggy.
This person is getting older, and many maintenance matters are late, but there are still many things that can be used. The Yufu ointment that Xie Yixiao sent before and the current plum blossom ointment are very useful.
"Do you think it is better to use Yufu ointment or plum blossom ointment?"
"Everything is fine, everything is fine."
Jiang thinks they are all good. She is older and her skin is no better than that of young people. It is always drier in winter. It is common for the skin to become dry and peeling, even if it is cracked. It is so cold in winter, and cracking is the most difficult thing to endure.
She has used many of these balms in the past, and this Yufu ointment is the most effective. It is moisturizing and not greasy. She applies it every day and feels that her face feels much more comfortable.
Gu Xiang also knew that Xie Yixiao had opened a makeup store called Xizi Pavilion. At first, everyone thought that Xie Yixiao was just running it for fun. On the day the store opened, it was said that many people came to support it, just to give her this
A noble daughter of the Xie family, she will be the future young lady of Duke Rong's palace.
But I didn’t expect that after using these evil people, I felt that they were good and kept using them.
Especially this Yufu ointment, which was used by men, women, old and young, and sold very well. Later, the Yufu ointment was no longer sold, and it was replaced with plum blossom ointment, which also sold well.
Gu Xiang felt that Xie Yixiao made a lot of money every year just by doing business of these two kinds of balms.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiang couldn't help but get excited. When she got married, she also got a dowry. Her family was given two shops in the imperial city, two houses, and two farms, but these farms were all in other places.
Later, Jiang took the initiative and added 30% of her dowry, and built a shop for her. In this way, she had three shops in the Imperial City.
It's just a pity that she is not good at running a business. Before leaving the court, she was busy protecting her younger brother and dealing with her aunt and concubine, her father who doted on his concubines and killed his wife, and her brainless mother.
After getting married, she became someone's daughter-in-law. Although she felt a little more relaxed, she had never studied and didn't understand these things.
If she asked, Mrs. Wu'anhou would be arrogant, but she would be willing to teach her, but she was really fed up with the days of looking at people's faces and being humble, and she was not willing to go to Mrs. Wu'anhou to find fault.
.
Gu Xiang couldn't help but ask: "Cousin, how did you come up with the idea of starting a makeup business and do it so well?"
Xie Yixiao said in a calm tone: "I happened to get some recipes by accident. I tinkered with them and found that they were good, so I tried to make some. I didn't expect it to be useful. Everyone likes them, and I'm happy too."
If someone likes what you make and you can make money, you will naturally not be unhappy.
Gu Xiang asked curiously: "Are there many prescriptions? What kind are there?"
When she asked this question, she saw Jiang and Xie Yixiao both looking over, and her face suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
These are people's secrets, so naturally they will not be told to others, and no one will tell the other person if they ask, and no one is stupid enough to ask others this.
"Cousin." Gu Xiang took a breath, and then said, "I also have an empty shop in my hand, but I am not good at running it and don't know what to do. I wonder if my cousin has any suggestions?"
Jiang's face changed slightly and her tone became much calmer: "What good advice can Gillian give you? You are already married. Gillian is just a boudoir girl. It is an accident that she can manage a Xizi Pavilion well."
, what other good advice can she give you?"
Gu Xiang said with some embarrassment: "I just saw that my cousin is so smart, so I asked, although I am the wife of the eldest son of Wu'an Hou Mansion, my mother-in-law is in charge of everything in the house, and I can't get more than that every month."
It’s some monthly money.”
"I'm not good at running a business myself, and I don't have much income from the shop I own. If my cousin has any suggestions, please help me. My cousin will remember your kindness."
Xie Yixiao didn't think Gu Xiang would remember her well. She already knew what kind of temper Gu Xiang was. She didn't know whether it was because of her living environment or her nature. Gu Xiang was really selfish.
When I need your help, I will thank you very much. I will keep it in my heart and remember your kindness. But by the time it is beneficial, she has already forgotten you.
When Gu Xiang was in trouble by Aunt Xu and Gu Yi, didn't Xie Yixiao help her?
But since she married into the Marquis Wu'an Mansion, has she ever thought of her cousin whom she promised to repay her kindness?
Xie Yi smiled and said: "My cousin is joking, I don't have any good suggestions. Even if I have good ideas, I should keep them for myself in the future, right? If I give them to my cousin, I won't have them when I need them in the future.
what to do?"
Gu Xiang choked and didn't know how to speak for a moment. Everyone said she wanted to use it herself. You can't just ask others to give you this idea, right?
If that's the case, the only thing I can do is say, "My cousin, keep it for yourself and use it later, I'll figure it out myself."
But Gu Xiang felt that she really couldn't think of any business she could do, so she thought for a while and then took a step back: "How about if my cousin does it in the future, she can drag me along with me?"
Xie Yixiao immediately smiled. She walked over and sat down next to Gu Xiang. There was a table between the two of them, with a plate of dried fruits and a teacup on it.
Xie Yixiao pinched a walnut and looked at Gu Xiang carefully for a long time. Gu Xiang felt uncomfortable looking at her.
"Cousin, what are you looking at me for?"
Xie Yi smiled and said: "What do I think my second cousin can do?" How big a face do you have?
"Second cousin, if we go into business together, what can second cousin do? Can second cousin come up with ideas, or manage the daily chores of running a shop? Second cousin, what can you do?"
What can be done?
She can't do anything!
If she has an idea, does she need to draw attention to it from others?
I've already done it myself.
She is not good at managing trivial matters and running a shop. If it is left to her, something will happen. Her three shops were originally running normally, but she let someone free up one of them and run it by herself. As a result, it is now...
It's closed.
Gu Xiang thought for a moment and said, "I have some money. If my cousin doesn't mind it..."
Xie Yi smiled and said: "What a coincidence, the Ninth Young Master knew that I would do some business to make money first, so he sent someone to give me ten thousand taels, saying that it would be used as capital for me. Any profit will be mine, and any loss will be his."
"How much does the second cousin plan to give me as capital? Could it be twenty thousand taels? If this is a loss, does it count as the second cousin's?"
"I would be quite happy if the loss belongs to my second cousin..."
