Shen Qiushui could hear the disdain in Zhu Zian's tone, she became interested and sat up straight.

"I've never heard you talk about your younger brother. If you have time today, tell me about it."

Shen Qiushui thinks that Zhu Zian is really interesting. Last month, the store was on the verge of closing down, but now he is dismissive of his younger brother.

"There's nothing to talk about between me and him. If you want to know, it's okay for me to tell you." Zhu Zian put away his precious golden abacus, and looked up at Shen Qiushui.

"The bastard in the county is the son of my father and his wife, and my mother was pissed to death by them."

It has been almost ten years since Zhu Zi'an's mother passed away. When talking about this matter again, Zhu Zian seemed very calm, but there was still resentment towards his father in his heart.

"So, why were you assigned to such a remote place?"

"Why else, my father dotes on his concubine and destroys his wife." Zhu Zian said nonchalantly, now he can be said to have no affection for his father.

After that, Zhu Zian told Shen Qiushui more details.

For example, the selection of the head of the Zhu family.

Originally, he was the only descendant in the direct line of the Zhu family, and his mother gave the dowry when the Zhu family was on the verge of bankruptcy, which allowed the Zhu family to survive. It can be said that most of the Zhu family's property belongs to his mother.

But since his father took back that bastard, everything changed.

If it weren't for the elders of the Zhu family who were suppressing him, his father could directly pass the position of Patriarch to that bastard.

Under his father's operation, that bastard is also qualified to compete with him for the position of Patriarch.

The Zhu family has been merchants for generations, and the selection of the head of the family is naturally related to making money. Running a shop is one of the evaluations of the head of the family.

His father was afraid of him and worried that he would settle accounts after he became the head of the family, so he kept suppressing him.

It's fine to assign him the worst place, and give the bastard the latest scent recipe developed by the Zhu family.

After struggling for so long, Zhu Zian originally planned to give up this assessment and think of other ideas. Who would have thought that he would run into Shen Qiushui.

"So that's the case." Shen Qiushui nodded.

Regarding Zhu Zian's matter, Shen Qiushui more or less guessed something, but now after listening to what the person said, she finally figured it out.

"It's thanks to you this time." Zhu Zian rubbed the golden abacus hanging on his waist again, looked up at Shen Qiushui who was sitting opposite, and said a rare emotional word: "Don't worry, follow me to do business, It won't hurt."

"No, no, if you want to thank you, you have to thank your brother."

"Oh what to say"

"The first thing I went to was Zhu's Rouge Shop in the county, but your brother..." Shen Qiushui paused, and raised his hand to touch the birthmark on the right forehead.

Zhu Zian's gaze followed Shen Qiushui's movements.

Shen Qiushui smiled, shook his head, put down the bag, and continued: "Your brother thinks I'm ugly and kicked me out of the shop."

"Then he really has no eyes." Zhu Zian didn't miss any chance to belittle that bastard, and cursed in disgust.

"Yeah, I think so too."

"Yes, don't believe that idiot's words, you're actually not that ugly." Zhu Zian stared at Shen Qiushui's face for a moment.

The woman's skin was fair and tender, and the bluish-black birthmark covering most of her forehead was like a blemish on a beautiful jade.Maybe it's because of lip balm, her lips are moist and itchy.

After being told by Zhu Zian, Shen Qiushui wanted to reach out and touch his forehead again.

Her birthmark was different from ordinary birthmarks. The birthmark was pitted and rough to the touch.

Although Shen Qiushui was not considered a peerless beauty in her previous life, her appearance was not bad, and she had never been called an ugly ghost. She has been in this world for so long and has never looked in the mirror. In fact, she doesn't know whether she looks ugly What has become.

But looking at the reactions of the people around, it is not difficult to guess that it must be extremely ugly.

She looked around the backyard, her heart moved slightly, and she asked Zhu Zian for the bronze mirror.

The bronze mirror is a rare item, and this is the first time she has seen it.

On the stone table, a figure appeared in the sallow bronze mirror.

Shen Qiushui looked at himself in the bronze mirror, his eyes suddenly widened, and he seemed a little dull.

This face looks more and more like her previous life!

"If you like it, you can take this bronze mirror back. I don't need it either." Seeing Shen Qiushui staring at the bronze mirror without moving, Zhu Zian thought that she was a rarity for this thing, so he opened his mouth very generously.

Shen Qiushui looked away from the bronze mirror and glanced at Zhu Zian.

She was not as polite as Zhu Zian, and directly picked up the bronze mirror, which was about the same size as her head.

"Okay, I'll keep this bronze mirror, and just deduct it from my share."

After finishing speaking, Shen Qiushui put away everything on the stone table.

Looking at the lipstick in the palm of his hand, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

"You can make a few more of this lipstick, and when the time comes to sell the whitening cream, use it as a gift, only for the first ten customers, what do you think of this idea?"

Whitening cream is a new thing in this world. Although the effect is good, there is no one who dares to buy it without the first person to eat crabs.

There is nothing better than this lipstick to open up the gap.

How many women can refuse lipstick

Zhu Zian's eyes lit up: "Very good!"

"Although the color I adjusted is good, it is a little lighter for other people. You can just make it darker."

Shen Qiushui had already put away everything, she stood up, "It's getting late, I should go back, I gave you all the recipes, you can figure out what to do with it."

After finishing speaking, she raised her hand towards Zhu Zi'an, turned and left.

Shen Qiushui went straight back to Huaishu Village.

The sky is gloomy today, with drizzle, and the people who often chatted under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village have disappeared.

Holding the oil-paper umbrella brought along from Zhu Zian, Shen Qiushui quickened his pace and walked home.

But when he walked to Tiankan, he met an acquaintance.

It's Aunt Li from the same village.

The field ridge is very narrow, but this is the only way to the end of the village.

Shen Qiushui took a step into the ground to make way for someone who came.

Unexpectedly, Aunt Li was not in a hurry to go there, but looked into Shen Qiushui's arms with her eyes open.

"Shen Qiushui, what are you holding in your arms?"

Shen Qiushui looked down at the things in his arms.

She walked in a hurry, and the bronze mirror was directly in her arms.

Although the bronze mirror is a rare object in the village, it is not so unrecognizable.

Knowing that the other party was asking knowingly, Shen Qiushui did not answer.

"You can't pass." She raised her eyes and looked over.

"You have a bronze mirror in your arms, right? Did you steal my mother-in-law's money to buy it?" Seeing that Shen Qiushui didn't answer, Aunt Li simply spoke directly. of!"

"I didn't steal the money!" Shen Qiushui frowned, not understanding why Aunt Li would talk about this.
