Compared to the bustling scenes over the last few days, the shop was much quieter now. They’ve only done 200 yuan of business in the morning. Shu Yan noticed the embarrassed look on Zhang Huaxiu and Yingying and chuckled. “Don’t feel bad. Business will get better over the weekend.”

The two of them exchanged a look. Zhang Huaxiu was quite impressed that Shu Yan could remain so calm. “Boss Lady, should we do another round of promotional activities?”

“What could you do, right? The other side had both witnesses and evidence. So he went to jail for a few years. And this was only because some of his buddies from back in the military helped him out. Otherwise, he might still be in jail right now. Now he has lost his job and severed his ties with his father’s side. The worst part was that his grandmother, who was the only one nice to him, died when he was in jail. He didn’t even get to see her one last time. 

“My son asked the neighbor to help out before he left,” said the old lady as she walked outside. She gave Shu Yan a very judgmental look and asked, “How many of you will be living here?”

“Just me and my two kids.” Shu Yan noticed that the old lady was really not that nice. Or that she especially looked down on anyone who was an outsider. 

In the past, they only needed to look for a place that was close to school. Now that she has a shop, she also needed the place to be close to a bus stop which has buses that would take her to West City Nan Road. That and when she threw in the criteria that it must be close to school, the areas she could look at were very limited.
