Old Iron?
Lu Ye had wanted to explain, but when he heard this nickname, he couldn’t help but lift the corners of his lips in amusement.
Forget it, forget it, no need to explain!
Since the kid likes it.
Then let her be.
After all, it’s just a nickname.
“Okay.”
Lin Wu’s eyes curved into a smile, “Thank you so much for today’s timely help, I have something else to do, so I’ll be leaving first.”
Lu Ye nodded slightly, “Take care on your way back.”
“Okay, Old Iron.” Lin Wu rode off on her bike.
Hearing this, Lu Ye’s face was full of helpless amusement.
Old Iron.
The kid really did just say it out loud.
Just as he turned around, Lin Wu raised her eyebrows slightly.
A perfectly handsome guy.
Being called what? Lu Tie?
Such a blow to the image!
After Lin Wu rode off, Lu Ye also got on his bike.
Half an hour later.
Lu Ye returned home.
Grandma Lu and Lu Lingli were sitting on the sofa in the living room, listening to opera. Seeing Lu Ye return, Lu Lingli excitedly said, “Lu Da tricked you into coming over; we have something to tell you.”
“What is it?” Lu Ye walked over.
Lu Lingli continued, “I want to introduce you to a date. She’s my classmate, just returned from studying abroad, and now she’s teaching at A University. She comes from a well-educated family, and she’s beautiful too—I guarantee you’ll like her.”
Ever since Lu Ye said, ‘If anyone makes him cry, he’ll make them die,’ she had been looking forward to seeing Lu Da tricked into crying.

Her classmate excelled in every aspect.
She was confident Lu Ye would fall in love with her classmate at first sight.
Then, she wanted to see if Lu Ye could still be as wild as he was now!
Imagining the scene of Lu Da being tricked to tears, Lu Lingli couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Lu Ye tossed a grape into the air and then caught it in his mouth, “I said, I don’t believe in love.”
“Just meet her! What if you end up believing in love after seeing her?” Lu Lingli said.
Lu Ye still refused, “I won’t go.”
“Are you going or not?” Just then, Grandma Lu turned back fiercely, glaring at Lu Ye, “I advise you to know what’s good for you, or I might have to bite you to death with my teeth!”
Lu Lingli folded her arms in agreement, “Grandma’s right, you’d better know what’s good for you!”
Hearing this, Lu Ye’s face was full of helplessness.
The old lady was over ninety and still acting like a child.
“Grandma, I really don’t want a girlfriend; I’m quite content being single.
Seeing that Lu Ye was unmoved, Lu Lingli turned to Grandma Lu, commanding, “Grandma, bite him!”
Grandma Lu immediately bared her teeth at Lu Ye.
Seeing the fierce old lady, Lu Ye lifted his thin lips slightly, “Grandma, stop baring your teeth.”
“You scared, little rascal?” Grandma Lu stood with hands on her hips, her face full of pride.
Lu Ye said each word slowly and seriously, “You’re not wearing your dentures today.”
Grandma Lu immediately covered her mouth with her hands.
Damn.
She had forgotten to wear her dentures.
MD, how embarrassing.

South Street.
Lin Guixiang came down from the second floor and curiously looked at Zhao Cuinong, “How was the income today?”
“Big sister, guess how much our revenue was this afternoon?”
Lin Guixiang had spent most of the afternoon on the second floor in the sterile room making skincare products and was not sure about the business, so she just made a random guess, “Also six thousand?”
Zhao Cuinong shook her head, “It’s more than that.”
More than six thousand?
Upon hearing this, Lin Guixiang’s eyes widened, thinking she must have heard wrong.
Zhao Cuinong continued, “Our Immortal Phoenix Whitening and Spot-Removing Set is 800 yuan per set, and one auntie, who said she is going abroad tomorrow, directly bought five sets!”
That auntie had many freckles on her face.
Initially, she just wanted to try out the Immortal Phoenix Set, not expecting much. But to her surprise, after only using it for two days, the spots on her face had begun to fade, and she was thrilled. She rushed to buy five sets before heading abroad.
“After the auntie left, a few young girls came one after another, selling a total of six Lotus Dew Acne Treatment and Hydration Sets and two Immortal Phoenix Sets. So, our total revenue for the afternoon was 9628 yuan, plus the 6000 yuan from the morning, the day’s total revenue was 14528 yuan!”
Lin Guixiang’s eyes grew even wider.
Had they really made a month’s rent in just one day?
“Cuinong, did you calculate that right?”
Zhao Cuinong replied with a smile, “Big sister, don’t worry, I didn’t miscalculate. The money is all in Alipay.”
Lin Guixiang then said, “Cuinong, according to the contract you have with Xiao Wu, 3000 yuan of this is yours, plus yesterday’s revenue, that’s 3100 yuan total. I’ll have Xiao Wu transfer the money to you when I get back.”
Before investing, Lin Wu had already drafted a contract with Zhao Cuinong, stating that future profits would be split with 80% for them and 20% for Zhao Cuinong.
“No rush, let’s save the money first and settle it all together at the end of the month.”
Settling accounts every day was too much of a hassle, and Zhao Cuinong wasn’t in a hurry to use the money.
After all, there were records for all sales.
“Okay,” Lin Guixiang nodded in agreement.
Soon after, Zhao Cuinong added, “Big sister, I gave out quite a few free samples today; I believe tomorrow’s revenue will be even higher. Let’s get ready to close up now.”
“Closing up now?” Lin Guixiang was taken aback.
They had opened the shop at nearly ten in the morning, and it was only half past six in the evening now.
Are you sure we’re closing this early?
Zhao Cuinong spoke with a smile, “Xiao Wu said that from now on, we’ll stay open until nine o’clock on weekends, but on weekdays, we close at half-past six. This is called ‘hunger marketing,’ similar to that milk tea shop — only available in the southern region.”
Scarcity commands value. Only by whetting their appetite can they boost customers’ desire to buy.
Lin Guixiang had no idea what ‘hunger marketing’ was, but she would listen to anything Lin Wu said, “Okay, then I’ll go upstairs and organize the skincare products.”
“Hmm.” Zhao Cuinong nodded, and hung the ‘Closed’ sign on the door.
Half an hour later, the sisters-in-law boarded the bus home.
Zhao Cuinong looked at Lin Guixiang, “Big sister, once we make more money, let’s buy a car. It will be more convenient for getting around.”
“Okay.”
They arrived home promptly at half-past seven.
As Qing City is located in the south, even though it was already half-past seven in the evening, the sky was not completely dark. When the two stepped into the courtyard, the neighbors were at the water pool on the first floor, washing vegetables and chatting.
Zhao Cuinong greeted everyone with a smile.
At this moment, Feng Qiaoqiao turned around, “Jelly’s mom is back. I heard you and your sister-in-law started a skincare business. How was today’s sales?”
Lin Guodong’s nickname was Jelly, so everyone called him that.
Upon hearing this, everyone else looked at the two with curiosity.
Zhao Cuinong said, “The business is pretty good.”
Pretty good?
If it was really that good, would they have closed shop and come home so early?
It’s not even eight o’clock yet!
Which shop in the city center doesn’t stay open until around ten o’clock?
Without a doubt, everyone thought Zhao Cuinong must be bluffing!
Xiao Zhou chimed in, “I heard you’re selling skincare products that you made yourselves?”
“Yes,” Zhao Cuinong nodded, “All the skincare products in the store are made by Xiao Wu and my sister-in-law.”
The crowd was already skeptical of Zhao Cuinong’s bragging, and now they were even more doubtful.
Lin Wu and Lin Guixiang.
One was just a teenager.
The other, a rural woman who had never even used skincare products.
Could these two possibly be making skincare products?
This was utterly preposterous.
That was too outrageous even for boasting.
Watching Zhao Cuinong and Lin Guixiang disappear upstairs, Feng Qiaoqiao lowered her voice and said, “Why do you think Cuinong would talk big like that?”
“Why?” everyone asked with great curiosity.
Feng Qiaoqiao snorted coldly, “It’s all for show! She’s trying to marry off Lin Guixiang, the second-hand goods, to a local from Qing City.”
