Shu Yu looked at the wooden hairpin in front of him and reached out to take it.

“For me?”

Lu Erbai nodded. “Yes, this is for you. Father didn’t have any other skills, but I was very good at carpentry.”

The wooden hairpin was carved very delicately, especially the pattern on it. It was a lifelike little fox head, and it was a little cute.

Shu Yu couldn’t help but look up at Lu Erbai. Was she like a little fox in her father’s heart?

Lu Erbai smiled. He lowered his head and took the tiny beaded flower from the counter. Then, he took the wooden hairpin from her hand and inlaid the beaded flower on the hairpin. A string of ta.s.sels hung down, making it look even more playful.

“You can make do with it first. Wait for Father to buy jade for you in the future.’

Shu Yu!s heart was warm. “Thank you, Father.”

“What are you thanking me for? What a silly girl.” Lu Erbai watched Shu Yu insert the wooden hairpin into his hair and instantly felt satisfied.

Shu Yu stood by the counter and chatted with Lu Erbai for a while.

She knew that Lu Erbai preferred carpentry. After all, that was his forte. However, the shop in front of him had just opened, and he was the only one in the family who could keep accounts. Therefore, he was reading while looking after the shop.

Occasionally, when he was free, he would carve some small things with a carving knife to avoid getting rusty.

However, after the shop officially went on the right track, he would still have to hire another shopkeeper.

At noon, Shu Yu stayed in the shop to accompany Lu Erbai for lunch. After that, she packed her things and prepared to return to Liufang Alley.

When they pa.s.sed by the back door of the county government office, they did not expect to see the Jiang family’s carriage parked there.

Jiang Ren was talking to the gatekeeper with a fawning smile on his face.

He wasn’t the only one. Jiang Li, who had already fallen out with him, was also speaking in a low voice. It was rare for the two brothers not to quarrel on the spot.

The entanglement here had attracted a few pa.s.sersby to watch.

When Shu Yu heard the two of them discussing, she stopped and leaned over to eavesdrop.

That person said, “The Jiang family is regretting it to death now. Back then, they didn’t treat the second young master of the Jiang family well. When they split up, they had to persuade the second branch to give them a small shop that did not make much money. He originally thought that the second branch was just like that. Who knew that the Madam Deng was so impressive? They had a relative who was a high-ranking official from the capital.”

When the others heard this, they exclaimed, “A high-ranking official from the capital? Who is it?”

“I don’t know about that. I heard that Madam Deng has a cousin who married very well. Today, she invited the couple over for a gathering.”

As that person spoke, he pouted his lips in the direction of the Jiang brothers. “See, they heard the news and insisted on coming over, saying that they wanted to see Jiang Yi.”

“Hahahaha, now they remember that they still have this brother.”

Shu Yu shook her head. Now that he remembered, it was too late for regrets.

She didn’t continue listening and strolled back to Liufang Alley.

However, she did not go home. Instead, she went to the courtyard where she made clothes. Inside, Madam Ruan, Mrs. Xiang, and the others were working, their movements swift and skillful.

Seeing Shu Yu come over, Mrs. Ruan was surprised for a moment. She quickly stopped and asked, “Yu, you’re here. Did something happen at home?”

“No, 1 just came to see you.” She just wanted to spend more time with her family in the remaining month.

She stayed in the garment room for half the afternoon and was also busy inside and outside. She only returned home when it was almost evening..
