Farmer girl swaps husbands: buys a sickly villain and pampers him

Chapter 102 The lingering ghost
A few days later, with the crackling sound of firecrackers, the shop across the street opened.

Su Yaoguang and others heard the sound of firecrackers and rushed to the opposite side to scout the enemy situation.

At this time, a lot of people had gathered here, making it impossible to get in. They squeezed for a long time before they could get in. Then they saw the sign in front of them and the mother and daughter standing at the door of the store.

"Neighbors, please excuse my embarrassment. We opened our shop in a hurry, so it's a little shabby. Please don't be offended." Zhong Lanhua, dressed to the nines, waving a handkerchief and smiling coquettishly, said, "Our shop is called Fenghua Pavilion. We mainly sell rouge, powder, all kinds of new ready-to-wear clothes, shoes, socks, and women's underwear. We have a huge variety. We're opening today, and everything is 50% off. Don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Jiang Yihuan said softly, "Our store will have a three-day opening discount. All items will be 50% off during these three days, and then the original price will return after three days. But you can come in and take a look. Our prices are all reasonable. You will definitely not find any store cheaper than ours."

The onlookers were immediately interested.

This new store not only promises low prices, but also a complete range of products. Look, it has ready-made clothes, shoes and socks, women's underwear, rouge and powder, all of which can save them a lot of trouble.

The most important thing is that not only are the proprietress and her daughter beautiful, but the employees are all good-looking young women and boys. Who doesn't like good-looking people? Men like good-looking young women, and women like good-looking young men. Now, when I buy clothes or makeup, I have such good-looking people to serve me, and I even want to shop longer.

Zhang Zhaodi glared at Zhong Lanhua with red eyes, angrily saying, "God damn it, this bitch who's haunting me, I've already checked and it's not her, so why is it still her?"

"We're on guard against her, so of course she's on guard against us too. If we'd known in advance that the shop across the street was rented by them, we wouldn't have given them the chance to open it. She knew this and kept it a secret, so when they officially opened, we wouldn't have been able to do anything to them. Mother, it's truly not unfair that you've been at her mercy for so many years."

Whether it is Zhong Lanhua or Jiang Yihan, the scheming of this mother and daughter is much deeper than Zhang Zhaodi. Zhang Zhaodi is a lone brave, no form of aggressiveness can hurt their foundation.

"They did it on purpose. They sell whatever we sell. They don't leave us any way to survive." Zhang Zhaodi was almost mad.

Zhong Lanhua spotted Zhang Zhaodi and her daughter and laughed shrilly, "Hey, look who's that? Isn't this the proprietress of Taoyaofang across the street from us? How did you find time to show up at our shop? Are we short of business? I'm so sorry, but we don't want to steal your customers. It's just that our customers are discerning and know whose products are better."

"Zhong Lanhua, don't be so proud." Zhang Zhaodi turned and left angrily.

Jia Chunni glared at Zhong Lanhua angrily: "Bad woman, your stuff must be rubbish. Wait for the day when you can't keep running."

Su Yaoguang did not leave, nor was she angry. Instead, she looked at Zhong Lanhua and her daughter thoughtfully.

"If you don't leave, do you really want to buy something in our store?" Jiang Yihuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her provocatively.

"You chased me all the way from the village to the city. If I don't go to support you, how can I be worthy of your deep love? Since you want me to go in and take a look so much, then I will go in and take a look. Just consider it as a way to help you and your daughter." Su Yaoguang said as she was about to walk into the store.

Jiang Yihuan didn't expect her to actually enter, and she immediately became unhappy. She stopped Su Yaoguang, not allowing her to even take a single step into Fenghua Pavilion. "I think you'd better not go in. Who knows what you're up to?"

"Are you so scared of me going in? If you're not guilty, why are you so scared?"

"Our store is open for business, so why should we feel guilty? I'm just worried that you might try to harm us, mother and daughter. Su Yaoguang, there's no room for two tigers in one mountain."

"Jiang Yihuan, you really are haunting me. However, I'm very curious about what tricks you and your daughter are playing." Su Yaoguang went back.

Su Yaoguang and others returned to Taoyaofang.

Taoyaofang, which had never been short of customers in the past few days, was empty for the first time.

"I can't understand it, I really can't understand it. Zhong Lanhua and Jiang Yihan can only do some needlework, and their embroidery skills are just so-so. I haven't heard that they can also make rouge and powder. Why did they open such a shop to go against us? We haven't been back to the village during this period of time, who did the mother and daughter go to learn the skills from?" Zhang Zhaodi paced back and forth in the room angrily.

"They don't need to learn how to do it themselves, they can just hire a master. They just need to run the store." Su Yaoguang said, "The store across the street is huge, twice the size of ours, and they sell a wide variety of items. In addition to gold and silver jewelry, they sell everything from head to toe. If you want to buy clothes, you can walk around inside and not only buy clothes, but also other things. As long as you buy one or two things, your business will not be too bad. I have to say, they do have some skills."

"No, I have to find out how their goods are. If their goods are not as good as ours, those old customers will come back soon." Zhang Zhaodi said.

"Ying'er has gone out to take care of this matter. When she comes back, we'll know what the goods on the other side are like." Wang Huanzhi said from the side, "Sister, don't get yourself too angry."

Zhang Yingdi came in from outside, holding a basket filled with various bottles and jars.

"I bought this from a customer for double the price," Zhang Yingdi said. "Even though I paid double the price, it only cost five taels of silver."

Zhang Zhaodi took out the things and placed them on the table. She opened them one by one and tried them out. She said with disdain, "They are far inferior to what our Yaoguang makes."

"It's far inferior, but it's cheap! There are ten bottles and jars in total, and they only cost two taels and five cents of silver." Su Yaoguang said, "Also, although these dressing items are not as good as the ones in our store, they are much better than those in other stores, and the price is so much cheaper. For ordinary people, this price is what they are willing to bear."

"We charge a high price because we use only high-quality ingredients. Those facial creams even contain several herbs that can remove scars and blemishes! If you use them long-term, you'll look several years younger." Zhang Zhaodi was unconvinced. "Those things over there are cheap, but they're barely usable."

"Ordinary people don't care about these things. They just buy from where it's cheaper. After all, those who are willing to spend money are a minority," said Su Yaoguang.
