Chapter two hundred and eleven, digging corners and telling the truth
"Third sister..." When the waiter left, Yu Zhuqing stopped talking.
"Sister, just tell me if you have anything to do." Yu Xijiao smiled slightly.
Yu Zhuqing twisted the handkerchief in her hand and lowered her head: "From what the guy said, Aunt Li should be a very good person."
"Sister, even if Aunt Li is a very good person, there is no guarantee that everyone else is good." Yu Xijiao understood the meaning of Yu Zhuqing's words and comforted her softly.
Yu Zhuqing took a deep breath, stopped twisting the handkerchief in her hand, suddenly shook hands, raised her head again and looked much calmer, only her face was slightly pale: "What Third Sister said is that I always... worry too much
many."
"The eldest sister is kind, but sometimes being too kind can lead to other people's calculations." Yu Xijiao smiled slightly. The eldest sister's temperament cannot be changed in a short time, but at least this time the eldest sister did not have much time to hesitate.
Much better than before.
After saying that, he pointed at the curtain hat placed aside. Caiyun hurriedly went over to take the curtain hat and put it on for Yu Zhuqing.
There was another knock at the door. Yu Zhuqing looked at Yu Xijiao anxiously. Seeing that she looked as usual and was smiling, she breathed a sigh of relief and turned her eyes to the door.
Mingyue opened the door, and a middle-aged woman walked in generously and saluted the two people: "I've seen these two girls."
"Are you Aunt Li, the shopkeeper here?" Yu Xijiao asked after looking Aunt Li up and down.
"Exactly, I wonder what happened to the two girls...?" Aunt Li asked doubtfully. She was sure that she had never seen these two girls. One was wearing a curtain and her face was not visible, and the other looked like this.
Outstanding, even at a young age, she is still stunning. If you have seen such a look, you will never forget it.
"I heard that your employer is not good to you. It just so happens that I also want to open an embroidery shop. How about Aunt Li quit her old employer and join me?" Yu Xijiao said straight to the point, reaching out to hold a piece of handkerchief in front of her.
When I picked it up, I saw a pink peony embroidered on the corner of the handkerchief. It was extremely delicate and the embroidery work was very good.
"I also like this embroidery. If Aunt Li can take away a few more good embroiderers, I will be very grateful."
"Thank you girl, but... I have no intention of leaving here for the time being." When Aunt Li came over, she was already convinced. Now she listened to Yu Xijiao and declined with a smile.
"For now? Why haven't you left yet? I heard that your host family doesn't pay much attention to Aunt Li, and they haven't even taken the initiative to find Aunt Li?" Yu Xijiao asked in surprise.
Aunt Li thought the waiter was talking loosely about these things. She lowered her head and smiled bitterly: "Actually, what the waiter said is wrong. The boss also has reasons for everything."
"What's the reason for being indifferent to your own shop? Seeing that your business here is so good, it should be Aunt Li's work alone. It's better for me to hire you at a high price than to follow someone who doesn't care about anything and drags down the shop."
My employer is much better." Yu Xijiao said earnestly.
Aunt Li raised her eyes and looked at Yu Xijiao. Once again, she must have never seen this girl before. She declined and said, "Thank you very much for your attention. It's just that my boss is really nice and there's nothing she can do about it."
"Do you want to sell this shop?" Seeing that she was resolute and had not said a bad word about the owner so far, which showed that those rumors were indeed true, Yu Xijiao nodded secretly, changed her voice and changed direction.
"There is...this intention." Aunt Li said with difficulty.
"Why do you want to sell such a good shop? Are you going to leave the capital and go somewhere else?" Yu Xi tilted her head slightly, showing a bit of playfulness.
"No, my boss will not leave the capital." Aunt Li replied with difficulty.
"Did you lose money in business? Have to sell the shop?" Yu Xijiao asked again.
"This... is a bit of a loss." Aunt Li said vaguely. She actually didn't want to talk more about her employer's affairs, and now she was driven here by every word.
"Why are you losing money? I think this business is very good." Yu Xijiao smiled, "Aunt Li, I come from the south of the Yangtze River. When I first arrived in the capital, my family bought me a few shops. I think yours is a good business.
Well, the guys inside are smart and the products are even better. How about I buy your embroidery shop directly? Aunt Li doesn’t have to move to another place and can still be the shopkeeper of this embroidery shop?"
Since ancient times, Jiangnan has been regarded as a place where wealthy merchants are born. Aunt Li looked at Yu Xijiao calmly and felt that the girl in front of her did not look like a merchant, but more like a girl from a big family.
Every move she makes is elegant and calm, and her words are impeccable. Such a woman cannot possibly come from a merchant family.
"This girl, do you really want to buy it?" Aunt Li asked tentatively.
"It's really interesting. I have bought a few before and I want to buy a few more." Yu Xijiao said.
Aunt Li was silent and seemed very hesitant. She looked up at Yu Xijiao and seemed to have made up her mind: "Girl, I can't make the decision in this matter."
"Who can decide?"
"Our owner is the eldest daughter of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion." Aunt Li was silent for a moment, then said, "But the right to buy and sell does not necessarily belong to our owner?"
"Since it is the shop of the eldest daughter of the Marquis Xuanping Mansion, why can't this eldest daughter make a decision?" Yu Xiyao asked.
"Our boss is a careless person. Mrs. Xuanpinghou has always been in charge of the store affairs. Several shops that were bought before were also bought by Mrs. Xuanpinghou. If the girl is really interesting, she has to find Xuanpinghou.
Mrs. Pinghou." Aunt Li sighed, she really couldn't bear to part with this embroidery shop.
This embroidery shop was the first wife's effort, and then it became hers. Thinking that this shop would be sold soon, Aunt Li couldn't sleep at night, and she was heartbroken.
She has no children. She used to put all her efforts into the embroidery village, but now she is watching helplessly as the embroidery village becomes someone else's. It would be a lie to say that she doesn't feel uncomfortable.
If the person in front of her really has the ability to protect everything in the embroidery village, Aunt Li will be moved.
When Mrs. Xuanpinghou's name was mentioned, Aunt Li secretly glanced at Yu Xijiao and saw that she was not scared or frightened, her expression was calm, and she was very stable for her young age, so she breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that this person in front of her
As soon as the girl heard the name of Mrs. Xuanpinghou, she panicked and did not dare to mention the business again.
Right now, at least I still have some thoughts.
“Mrs.
I think your abilities are pretty good, but I wonder if Aunt Li has any ideas?"
Yu Xijiao's eyes fell on Aunt Li warmly, and she invited her warmly.
Aunt Li looked at Yu Xijiao again. This time, unlike the sneak peek just now, she looked at Yu Xijiao very generously. Although she was very rude, she could see her seriousness.
"This girl, I can't agree to you yet, but I can help you match up. It depends on the girl's will whether she succeeds or not. As for when she succeeds, if she is still willing to look up to me, I will also be willing to stay.
Come down." Aunt Li finally relaxed.
She really didn't want to leave this embroidery village. For so many years, it was almost like her home.
"Are you looking for someone around Mrs. Xuanpinghou?" Yu Zhuqing couldn't help but ask, feeling very uncomfortable. She could see that Aunt Li was a good person, and she really didn't want to leave Xiuzhuang. When she thought of Aunt Li, she thought of more.
Were there many old people left behind by their biological mothers with reluctance at that time?
It’s because I am useless, and every store is suffering losses!
"It's not the person next to Mrs. Xuanpinghou, but the deputy shopkeeper here." Aunt Li said, "But he is not here today, so why don't you leave your address? When he comes back, I will tell him that I will send someone by then.
Just discuss it with him."
"Deputy shopkeeper? The shopkeeper also has a deputy?" Yu Xijiao asked back.
"Yes, there is not only the deputy shopkeeper, but the deputy shopkeeper also has a deputy, there are three accounting offices, and there are some stewards." Aunt Li sighed heavily, her expression gloomy.
"Why are there so many people?" Yu Xijiao's clear eyes fell on Aunt Li.
Xu knew that Yu Xijiao really wanted to buy this embroidery shop, and Aunt Li didn't hide it this time. If she really wanted to buy it, these things should have been made clear to people.
"Our boss is actually a very good person. She had several shops before, but the business of these shops was not very good. She only has two shops now. Our boss can't bear to have some old people in the shops that were losing money before.
, let them take up positions in the remaining two shops, feeling that they could not treat these old people badly, but it happened to be these old people..."
Aunt Li sighed, "Even if the shop makes money, it can't support so many people. And some people are just in name and don't really do anything. Our boss is too kind."
"Don't do things in name?" Yu Zhuqing asked in surprise.
"Yes, it's just in the name of not doing anything. Look at our embroidery shop. In fact, we don't need so many people. In any shop, there is usually one shopkeeper and one accountant. We have three shopkeepers and three accountants here."
No one believed it when I came out, and some even said that the previous employer promised them that they could not do anything and just put their name on it and get paid."
It was completely beyond Yu Zhuqing's imagination to hold a vacant position and not do anything but receive a salary.
"This...impossible!" he said anxiously.
"This girl, there is nothing impossible. Our employer is really good... But we cannot be so good without distinguishing between people. Those people... those people are simply drinking the blood of our employer and don't care about the experience of our old employer at all."
You are trying your best to trick our boss into death." Aunt Li was very angry.
Yu Zhuqing was angry and anxious. She had no idea that the real situation would be like this. Would the old people left behind by their biological mothers be like this?
Aren’t they all the loyal servants who stayed behind, unwilling to leave their little master again, and willing to serve their little master wholeheartedly?
"Aunt Li, since you know the disadvantages, why don't you tell your employer clearly that your employer may have been deceived by others. If he knew the true situation, he would not be like this." Yu Xijiao asked in confusion.
After hearing her question, Aunt Li sighed again...
