She gave birth to three daughters in a row, and was kicked out by her mother-in-law who favored boys
Chapter 402 Happy conversation
"Hello, Aunt Shen!" Wen Xin gently pulled Wen Nuan to follow Gu Qingqing, and greeted Mrs. Shen politely when she saw her.
Mrs. Shen was so happy looking at the children. Dahua was well-behaved, Erhua was smart, and Sanhua was ignorant and cute. They were likable no matter how you looked at them.
"Hurry, it's too hot outside, follow your aunt into the house. Xiao Cui, go get some cakes and see if the candied white fungus in the backyard is ready, and serve some to the child."
After receiving the instructions, Xiao Cui went to the inner room to get some snacks to serve the three children, then turned around and ran away with Gu Qingqing, smiling.
After everyone entered the house, Mrs. Shen said with a slightly apologetic look on her face, "Look at me, I was so busy taking care of the children that I neglected you."
Gu Qingqing smiled relaxedly, "This is not the first time I come to Madam Shen's place. I have long regarded your place as half my home. Why do I need to greet you? Look, I came in by myself."
Mrs. Shen smiled and raised her hand to nod at her, then stepped forward and asked with concern, "Sit down, don't stand. Why did you come to town today? What's the matter? Aren't you afraid of getting tired?"
Gu Qingqing sat down, smiling, and said, "Farmers are strong and healthy, and are not afraid of hard work. The soap shop in town opened today, and I was a little worried so I came to take a look. It just so happens that I haven't seen Qingxue for a while. Is she feeling better these days?"
"She has been in much better spirits these days and can eat. She suffered a lot in the past few days. When Xiao Cui comes back, I will ask her to see what Qingxue is doing now. If she knew you were here, she would definitely be happy." Mrs. Shen paid special attention to Jiang Qingxue. After all, she was the eldest grandson of the Shen family, so whenever she talked about things over there, Mrs. Shen would be in a particularly good mood.
After she finished speaking, she suddenly asked, "You just said the soap shop is open today?"
Gu Qingqing nodded.
"Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were opening today so that the government could arrange a lion dance for you."
Gu Qingqing couldn't help but cover her face after hearing such words, and begged for mercy, "Fortunately I didn't tell you in advance, otherwise if I really asked you to go to the lion dance team like you said, I would be so embarrassed. My shop is empty, and it would be a joke for others to see."
Then Gu Qingqing talked about the poor little goods in her shop.
"Do you want me to arrange for the shop at home to send you some rouge and powder? You can't just sell those things when you open your business." Mrs. Shen really didn't expect that her so-called opening would be so nonchalant.
Gu Qingqing waved her hands again and again, "No, no, I've already benefited from your store. Everyone in town knows that the soap is good. I'm already satisfied with being able to sell the soap with the reputation you've created. As for rouge and powder, I'll make plans later."
"Wouldn't it be too monotonous if we just sold soap?"
"Not entirely. I'm going to put some shampoo in the store soon." Gu Qingqing replied.
"Shampoo?" Mrs. Shen said while her eyes fell on Gu Qingqing's bun. She frowned slightly and then looked at the hair tips of the children.
Then he said in surprise, "Eh?" "If you hadn't said it, I wouldn't have noticed anything. I think your hair is extra shiny, like fine silk. Especially the children's hair, it's not as dry as before."
As Mrs. Shen spoke, she indeed touched her own temples, and the feeling was not as soft as Gu Qingqing's in her vision.
After hearing Mrs. Shen's praise, Gu Qingqing asked happily as if she had met a close friend, "Really? Is it obvious? I just made this a few days ago. I used it once, and the children at home used it twice."
When Gu Qingqing said this, she realized belatedly and said, "Oops!" "Look at my brain, why did I forget to bring some for you to try?"
Gu Qingqing pointed her finger at her brain in annoyance, as she hadn't even thought of this.
She really forgot. When she was boiling the water, she was thinking of trying it herself first. If the effect was good, she would send some back to the Shen Mansion after boiling some water, and sell the rest in the shop.
So when she went to town this time, she didn't even think about bringing out the remaining things at home.
Mrs. Shen was very interested in seeing that she had made something rare again, and she pulled Gu Qingqing aside to chat with her for a while.
When the conversation got interesting, Mrs. Shen suddenly said, "You have a lot of ideas. I think you can set up a workshop to specialize in producing soap and the shampoo you just mentioned. Although I haven't used them yet, I believe that what you make is good. The Shen family not only has shops in the town, but also in the county and the state. Sales will definitely not be a problem."
Gu Qingqing immediately perked up after hearing what she said, her eyes sparkling with light, "Mrs. Shen, we are really in tune with each other. The first thing I came here for today was to see Qingxue. Secondly, I also wanted to ask you what you think of the soap business. Now that I have heard your firm words, I am very confident about setting up a workshop."
Madam Shen covered her mouth with the back of her hand where her index finger was connected and chuckled, "If you really ask me what I think, then I hope you can do more good things. You don't know that the thresholds of the shops in our town have been almost trampled down by people recently, all for the soap. Some of the ladies have sent several people to line up to buy it. Now they are giving it as a souvenir to their good sisters."
When Mrs. Shen talked about the business in the shop, she got an extra crow's feet at the corner of her eyes.
Gu Qingqing listened to her words and began to think in her mind that the soaps were now made by Shengxi Wenxin. Sometimes Daxin would go over to help when he was free at home.
Now she has opened her own shop, and some of the goods on display are from products she made some time ago. If the shop business is good, the few things she makes now will not be enough to sell.
Since Mrs. Shen also has this idea, she can start preparing after she returns.
At this time, Xiao Cuier came into the room carrying five stew pots, "Madam, these are stewed on the fire, Madam Wen, try them first if they are not too hot."
Xiao Cui said this and gave each person a small stew pot.
"Thank you, Miss Xiao Cui." Gu Qingqing said.
"Madam Wen, you're welcome."
After Xiao Cui put the three children's stew pots on the table in the house,
With a bright smile on her face, Wen Xin took a step forward and said to Mrs. Shen, "Thank you, Aunt Shen."
Wenrou followed suit and smiled brightly, "Thank you, Aunt Shen."
When Xiao Wen Nuan heard her elder sister say thank you, she also followed suit and shouted "Shrimp, shrimp, shrimp!" to make herself felt.
