Chapter 1642: Earning Small Money Quietly

As midwinter approaches and the New Year approaches, the streets are becoming more lively.

The Chinese New Year should be celebrated like it is. Although the Liu family's home is deserted now, it does not prevent Shi Li from wanting to have a happy and lively New Year.

Whenever she had extra money, she liked to go shopping. She would buy anything she liked, and even if she couldn't use it, she would give it to the maids and servants in the courtyard.

Everyone likes these little surprises from time to time.

It was the same on this day. Shi Lixin got a fox fur cloak. The fur was snow-white. It looked beautiful and warm on the body, and was perfect for going out shopping.

The owner of the rouge shop sent someone to deliver a message this morning. They had just received a batch of rouge from the north, all of which were styles not available here. She asked if Shi Li wanted some to be sent over for her to choose from.

Shi Li rejected the offer that was made to her door. She waited until the weather got warmer at noon, put on a cloak, and went out with her maid to the rouge shop.

There were not many customers in the shop at that time. When the shopkeeper saw her, he came out quickly to entertain her. With a smile on his face, he had people display all the new rouge products and showed them to Shi Li one by one.

Shi Li sat on the armchair, holding an exquisite hand warmer, and looked at the exquisitely crafted rouge with a smile.

She didn't actually like these things very much, but they were automatically transformed into white shadows in her eyes, and she was naturally happy to see them.

"This box of rouge is called Peach Blossom Drunk, taken from the first peach blossom that blooms on the northernmost tree..."

"What good stuff is that? Bring it here and let me see it!" A shrill female voice suddenly interrupted the shopkeeper.

Hearing the sound, Shi Li looked towards the door and saw a pretty girl in bright red walking in. She was well dressed and wore a pair of crystal clear white jade hairpins on her head, which were priceless.

This wealthy girl was not a stranger to the original owner, but Liang Wan, an old acquaintance whom the original owner had met in Suzhou.

At that time, the original owner was still unmarried, about the same age as Liang Wan, and her family background was not much different, so she was often secretly compared to Liang Wan by the noble ladies in Suzhou.

The original owner didn't think much of it, but Liang Wan was a very aggressive person. Every time she met the original owner, there would be a fight between them.

Later, the original owner married in Yangzhou, and thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly she met him here.

Shi Li thought about her memories of Liang Wan and stood up calmly, "Ms. Liang, long time no see."

"Oh, it's you." Liang Wan seemed to have just noticed Shi Li. She turned her head to look at her, her eyes fixed on the snow-white cloak.

Then she stopped looking at Shi Li and raised her chin arrogantly to look at the shopkeeper, "Show me the rouge."

The shopkeeper didn't know what was going on between her and Shi Li. Seeing this, he looked at Shi Li with some embarrassment. Only after Shi Li smiled and nodded did he hand the rouge box to Liang Wan.

Liang Wan immediately became proud, took the rouge and looked at it critically, saying, "Not so good...How many boxes of this kind of rouge do you have?"

"This rouge was brought from the north, and there are only two boxes in total." The shopkeeper entered business mode and promoted the product very actively.

Liang Wan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Okay, bring me both boxes, I'll buy them!"

After saying that, he looked at Shi Li provocatively.

Shi Li still waited with a smile.

[Host...can you have a little temper???]

[Good, I am angry! ]

[I am also angry. What kind of weird female competition is Liang Wan doing? Is she sick?]

"Why are you angry? She came to give me money, shouldn't I be happy?" Shi Li replied lightly, then stood up and walked to the counter next to her, picked up another box of rouge, and pretended to look at it.

But she pretended to be casual, and the rouge she picked up was actually the most expensive rouge in the whole shop.

Cunjindan, as the name suggests, is worth one gold per inch. It is expensive and rare. The rouge shop only has one box in stock. It is almost the most valuable item in the box and few people ask about it.

But since she had already taken it, Liang Wan naturally wanted to fight for it.

As expected, the Cunjindan was also sold.

When the shopkeeper packed up the boxes of rouge, calculated the bill and handed it to Liang Wan, her chin almost lifted to the sky. Before leaving, she smiled and said to Shi Li: "It seems that you didn't marry well!"

Shi Li didn't answer, but watched her leave with a smile.

"Boss, why does this young lady talk like that? She takes so much care of our business, doesn't that mean she is familiar with you?" The shopkeeper standing at the back asked in confusion.
