Jiang Yutong didn't expect Shi Donglian to have such a good personality. No wonder she was the one who opened a shop before. Just now, she stood there and watched her entertaining customers. She was very attentive and could read the customers' expressions. In the end, she could always make the customers leave satisfied. Jiang Yutong suddenly wanted to recruit her under her own name. In the future, if the soap shop had such a talent to help, she would be able to have a lot more ease.

"Sister Donglian, are you making money by setting up a stall now?"

Shi Donglian smiled helplessly, "This is all I can do. If I want to make money, this is the only way."

At this time, another wave of guests came, "You serve the guests first."

Jiang Yutong thought that this was not a good place to have a conversation, so she stood beside Shi Donglian and sold rouge and powder together, occasionally chatting with her.

Jiang Yutong also got a lot of information from it.

It turned out that these rouge and powder were all made by Shi Donglian herself. Jiang Yutong picked them up and looked at them carefully, and found that the things were quite good. Some of the customers were old customers of Ningxiang Pavilion.

After Shi Donglian sold all the rouge and powder for today, she closed the shop. There was a cart next to her, and Jiang Yutong helped to pack up the things.

"Just stand aside, I can do it on my own."

Shi Donglian was afraid of getting Jiang Yutong's clothes dirty, so she gave instructions.

"It's nothing serious, just a helping hand."

After collecting her things, Shi Donglian dusted herself off and said, "Sister Yutong, I've kept you waiting for so long. You must be hungry. I know the noodles at the place up ahead are pretty good. I'll treat you."

Jiang Yutong did not refuse and helped push the cart to the noodle shop.

"Two bowls of noodles, please."

Shi Donglian shouted to the noodle shop owner.

"Oh, I'll be right there."

The noodles arrived very quickly. They were thin noodles and tasted pretty good. There were a few pieces of shredded meat on top.

Jiang Yutong praised, "The noodles are good."

Shi Donglian asked the boss to serve another side dish.

The two of them finished the bowl of noodles quickly.

Shi Donglian put down her chopsticks and asked, "Sister Yutong, do you have something to say to me?"

Jiang Yutong couldn't help but marvel at Shi Donglian's good eyesight and smiled, "Sister Donglian, I admire your ability to read people's expressions. To be honest, I do have something I want to tell you. I wonder where Sister Donglian lives? We can talk while we walk."

Shi Donglian listened to Jiang Yutong, and the two of them pushed the cart and talked as they walked.

"I'm looking for a shop in Yinbai County recently to make some soapberry products. I think Sister Donglian is very capable, so I'd like to ask her for help. What do you think, Sister Donglian?"

Shi Donglian didn't expect that Jiang Yutong was talking about this matter. She hesitated for a while and didn't say anything. This was actually a good thing.

Jiang Yutong continued, "My shop mainly deals with women's products. I was originally planning to make some rouge and powder. If Sister Donglian helps me, we can become partners. I can also display your products in the shop, and whatever you sell will be yours."

Shi Donglian didn't expect that Jiang Yutong had taken all her concerns into consideration. She made her fortune by selling rouge and powder, and had a special affection for it. She had spent all her efforts on rouge and powder, and she would not be willing to give up just like that. Now that there was such a good opportunity, Shi Donglian of course agreed.

"I'm taking advantage of this girl, what should I do?"

Jiang Yutong smiled and said, "We each take what we need."

After getting the answer he wanted, Jiang Yutong sent Shi Donglian back to her residence. Shi Donglian now rented a very small yard, which Jiang Yutong found to be quite clean.

Shi Donglian insisted that Jiang Yutong come in and sit for a while.

Jiang Yutong sat in the yard for a while, thinking about the bits and pieces of conversation she had heard on the street before, and then she spoke carefully, "Sister Donglian, where is your daughter now? If she has any difficulties, I can help her."

Shi Donglian didn't expect Jiang Yutong to take the initiative to ask for help. She was very grateful. Thinking of how much her Nini had suffered, she knelt down in front of Jiang Yutong and said, "If Sister Yutong can really help me redeem my daughter, I am willing to work like a slave for you for the rest of my life. I don't need a partner in the shop. I will just help you."

After saying that, he kowtowed heavily.

Jiang Yutong quickly helped the person up, "Sister Donglian, please stand up and talk to me. Since I want to cooperate with you, of course if I can help you solve your worries, you can concentrate on your work. There is no need to be so polite."

Shi Donglian knew that Jiang Yutong's words were just politeness, but she would always remember this kindness in her heart. The sooner Nini came back, the less suffering she would suffer.

Shi Donglian recounted the story, "It's all my fault for not judging people well. I was so focused on business that I didn't realize the person next to me had already changed his mind."

It's a clichéd story.

Shi Donglian and her husband were originally a loving couple, but after Shi Donglian gave birth to her daughter and suffered heavy bleeding during childbirth, she managed to survive, but her body was injured and she could never conceive again.

Out of guilt, Shi Donglian obeyed her husband's words, worked hard to earn money outside, tried to be a good wife and mother at home, and even handed over the financial power to her husband.

Unexpectedly, people's hearts are hidden. The man was unwilling to give up, so he spent the money earned by Shi Donglian to keep a mistress outside. This mistress was also very powerful. When she gave birth to a baby boy, she forced the man to sell everything and ran away with the money.

In order to prevent Shi Donglian from chasing after him, he even cruelly sold his daughter to tie Shi Donglian down.

Jiang Yutong sighed, "It's all in the past. One day, we'll settle the score with him. He should never have sold his daughter to a brothel."

At this point, Shi Donglian wiped away her tears and said, "It's all my fault that I gave birth to a daughter, but that's also the child I carried for ten months and raised from a tiny child."

"It's no wonder you gave birth to a son or a daughter. As daughters, we should be more self-reliant."

Jiang Yutong knew that the idea of favoring boys over girls was very strong nowadays. There was Sun Taohua from Shangyuan Village in the past and Shi Donglian in the future. Even though Shi Donglian was very capable outside, she felt inferior to her husband because she had not given birth to a son. That was why Shi Donglian's husband spent the money she earned to keep a mistress outside. She even gave birth to a baby boy from the mistress and was instigated by the mistress to sell everything.

Shi Donglian said fiercely, "One day, I will find this damned couple and make them pay for their crimes with blood."

They agreed to go and redeem Nini at a certain time. Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Yutong said goodbye to Shi Donglian.

Jiang Yutong was tired after running all day, so she went back to Jingshui Tower to rest. As she was leaning against the head of the bed, thinking about how to get things done step by step, she heard a loud noise from below, including Yu Xueyi's choked rebuttal.

Jiang Yutong frowned and immediately got off the bed.
