Chapter 725: Chapter 730 Allergy?_1
On February 16, the long-awaited opening of Duo Meifang took place.
That day, Duo Meifang was bustling with activity, as numerous ladies and young misses came to support the event, packing the storefront so tightly that not even water could trickle through.
It was just as well that there was no such thing as a traffic jam in ancient times.
"Grandma, you brought so many guests, I don’t even know how to thank you!"
Qiao Duo’er said gratefully.
Besides those who came with Old lady Bai, there were many who came after hearing about it from her at the post-new year gathering. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
"It’s all because your products are good, but I’ve already given away all the Anti-Aging Cream you gave me last time; you’ll have to get me another two boxes," Old lady Bai said haughtily.
In fact, she had only let others try the Fragrance Paste, which led them to ask where she got it.
So she took the opportunity to promote Duo’er’s shop.
"No problem! I’ll have someone send it to Bai Mansion later!"
Before Qiao Duo’er could reply, she heard someone calling for him.
Over at Bai Yifan’s side, he had encountered a troublesome woman and the shop assistant was out of his element, so he had no choice but to call for Qiao Duo’er.
Watching Qiao Duo’er’s retreating back, the old lady sighed.
How she wished Duo’er could become her granddaughter-in-law; she would die without regrets then.
What a pity, in this lifetime, that wish could not be fulfilled.
Chen Yiling offered consolation, "Duo’er surely won’t be content to be just a woman of the inner court; she should have a broader world."
Although the Bai Family wasn’t rigid, their status and position were set in stone.
Becoming the mistress of the Bai Family meant she could not show her face freely anymore and had to deal with all sorts of ladies.
All of this would be torture for Qiao Duo’er, so marrying into the Bai Family would definitely not make her happy.
Tan Zhenghong was different, however, as he could let Qiao Duo’er do anything she wanted.
"That’s true. Zheng Hong is a good child and is a worthy match for Duo’er!" Old lady Bai sincerely remarked.
Almost every time she saw Tan Zhenghong, he was doting on Qiao Duo’er, and their sweetness made her envious.
Meanwhile, a woman’s shrill voice said, "Stop buying, this stuff is completely unusable; look at my face if you don’t believe me, can it even be shown in public?"
She pulled down the thin veil on her face, revealing a face full of red rashes.
For any woman, this was a nightmare of the highest order.
Thus, when she exposed her face, many people gasped in shock, and those who were about to buy something fell silent.
"It’s all red rashes, so horrifying!"
"Let the owner come out; if we don’t get an explanation today, you lot might as well shut down this shop."
"Crows are the same every where you go; even Lord Qin is only slightly better than the rest. That he emerged as the winner in dealing with the Yin Family this time!"
"His wife has already taken over many shops selling essentials like grains, oil, and fabric; they’ve made a tidy sum!"
"And to think we saw Lord Qin as a good official, what a disappointment!"
"Be careful what you say; there’s still room in the big prison!"
Qiao Duo’er pushed through the crowd and stood behind the counter.
She said coldly, "I am the owner of Duo Meifang. If you have issues, speak about the issues, but do not attack others."
If it hadn’t been for Chen Yiling timely using her dowry to stock up on essentials, White Stone County would have been in chaos long before.
Yet, coming from the mouths of these people, it turned into Lord Qin being greedy for profit!
Put bluntly, wasn’t this ingratitude?
Seeing the owner come over, the woman immediately clutched at her sleeve, which Qiao Duo’er shook off, making her even more infuriated.
"Look at my face. How can I ’speak about issues’ when my face is ruined? If my face is destroyed, you won’t get away with it either!" she said viciously.
She was no easy target!
