Shu Yu said, “I want dad to help me make a few mannequins and clothes hangers, but the clothes hanger I want isn’t the kind that stands upright beside the bed. It’s those that can be hung casually.”
He understood hangers, but…
“What’s a mannequin?” Lu Erbai didn’t understand this new term.
Shu Yu explained it to him, and Lu Erbai immediately understood, “Sure, I’ll get it done for you very soon.”
Mannequins weren’t huge. He could make the parts one by one and then attach them together. For the current Lu Erbai, it was not a problem.
“There’s no need to rush. What’s important now is your leg. Dad, you have to heal your injuries as soon as possible so that you can go to the shop to help me.”
Lu Erbai understood, “I’ll rest properly.”
After everything was arranged, Shu Yu thought of the few mu of land at home and asked the old lady, “Grandma, have you rented out the land?”
“I’ve already asked your uncle to keep an eye on this matter. I went to his house just now to talk about this.”
Lu Dasong didn’t understand at first and even tried to dissuade her, saying that a few mu of land wouldn’t be a problem for his second brother once his legs recovered.
It was at that time that Dahu and the others ran in and said that Shu Yu was back, which interrupted their conversation.
“Erya, you said that you wanted to build a new room for our house. I thought about it and decided not to rush it. There are too many things to do in the shop right now, and no one has the time to take care of the renovations. Your mum can’t make clothes if there’s too much noise around either, so it’s better to wait for the shop to open before starting the renovations.”
The old lady had thought it through. After the shop opened, they would be able to make money. By then, they would have more money on hand and would not be so stressed.
Shu Yu was fine with that. She had thought that she couldn’t find a suitable shop so quickly, so she thought of building the room first.
Currently, they were truly short on staff.
“Then it’s settled. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the county town to find some craftsmen. Dad, do you know any craftsmen that you think are good?”
Lu Erbai had been an apprentice carpenter in the county before he got married. As such, he naturally knew a few reliable craftsmen.
“Tomorrow, go to 57 Dongmen Street and find a craftsman with the surname Zheng. He’s been my good friend for many years and has even helped our family during difficult times. He has good craftsmanship and is very serious and fast in his work, plus he doesn’t charge much. However, he injured people a few years ago, and for some reason, people outside said that he has a bad temper and is not easy to get along with. They even said that he threatened his employers, so even fewer people hired him.”
Shu Yu believed in her dad, so she decided to look for Craftsman Zheng the next day.
After everything was discussed, Shu Yu decided to leave.
Just as she got up, Lu Erbai say with a straight face, “There’s one more thing that I have to say first.”
“What’s the matter?” The old lady asked.
Lu Erbai said, “Don’t call her Erya in the future. Just call her by her full name,
Shu Yu, or Yu.”
The old lady frowned, “But we’re already used to calling her Erya.”
Lu Erbai was helpless, “Mum, although Erya sounds intimate, she’s going to be the shopkeeper of the shop soon. It’s a habit in our village to call her that, but if she is addressed as Erya in front of the customers, they’ll think that she’s unpresentable and look down on her.”
Over the years, he had been to many places and met many people in search of Erya.
Most of the people were friendly, but some sneered at such a name. They felt that the other party was a country girl who had never seen the world and was not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as them..
