Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Mrs. Peng’s surname was Yao. The nanny beside her was Nanny Qian, who had come to deliver the congratulatory gift when the Gu family set up the beam.

Nanny Qian smiled and introduced, “Miss Gu, this is my Young Madam.”

Gu Yundong nodded at Madam Yao. Madam Yao was sizing her up, but she had a smile on her face and looked very friendly. “Miss Gu, congratulations. I heard that your sugar is unique in Fengkai County. My master saw it last time at Jinxiu Restaurant. When he came back, he praised it so much that I was curious and couldn’t wait to see it. Look, I shamelessly followed my master here. Don’t take it to heart.”

Gu Yundong also laughed. “Madam Peng, you must be joking. It’s not that exaggerated. Let’s go to the backyard and drink a cup of white sugar water. It tastes good.”

“Okay.” Madam Yao asked Nanny Qian to deliver the gift and nodded with a smile.

Peng Zhongfei was not the only one who brought his wife here today. Gu Yundong had asked Dong Xiulan to invite the others to the backyard for tea.

Since Madam Yao was here, Gu Yundong naturally led her to the back.

Dong Xiulan was a countryside woman. How could she have interacted with the wives of these wealthy families? She had always been worried. Fortunately, she had the wife of the eldest son of the Tong family, Madam Jiang.

Madam Jiang had been a servant in a rich family before. Although she could not serve her master directly, she knew the rules of these families.

Seeing that Dong Xiulan was uncomfortable, she whispered that she would serve tea and entertain her. Most of these madams knew each other and would find someone to chat with.

Dong Xiulan nodded repeatedly. She didn’t want to be in the middle of these people.

However, she had promised to help Yundong today, so she was afraid that she would mess it up.

When Gu Yundong led Madam Yao in, she saw Dong Xiulan sweating profusely and trembling with fear as she held the candied water.

She immediately held her forehead. It was her fault for not thinking it through. It was embarrassing.

Fortunately, Qin Wenzheng and his wife had arrived. Madam Ge had a good relationship with Gu Yundong and was Yunshu’s master’s wife. At this moment, she was naturally pulled over to help greet Madam Yao and the others.

Gu Yundong chatted with her for a while before leaving. It was very lively outside.

With Liu Wei and Shao Qingyuan around, there was actually not much of a problem.

Many people were looking at the white sugar, and some were asking about the lollipop that was inserted in the middle of a straw and emitted the fragrance of fruit. Many shopkeepers next door saw so many rich young masters and young madams coming to support the new shop, so they came over to look curiously.

After knowing what was sold in the shop, all of them widened their eyes and were eager to give it a try.

However, when they heard the price, they were still a little afraid. This candy was good, but 100 copper coins per tael was really unbearable.

However, Gu Yundong was not worried about the customers at all. After the opening, her sugar would be sold like crazy.

“I want 50 pounds.”

“I want a hundred pounds.”

“I don’t want much. 20 catties is enough.”

Gu Yundong looked at the people who rushed to the counter with silver in their hands and asked their servants to block the counter with white sugar, as if they were afraid that the sugar would be snatched away.

Gu Yundong coughed lightly. “It’s my humble shop’s honor to have all of you here today. However, there’s a limited number of goods, so each customer can only buy five catties at most.”

“I’ll pay more,” someone said.

Gu Yundong shook her head. “Only five catties.” In such a short period of time, the amount of white sugar she could produce was limited. How could she sell dozens of catties?

Everyone was extremely disappointed. In the end, they could only carry a small cloth bag out.

Peng Zhongfei also bought five catties, but he left after throwing down 20 taels of silver.

Madam Yao saw his actions clearly and her eyes could not help but darken..
