Lu Sanzhu still harbored a sense of regret, but the Grandson Feng beside him was completely filled with jealousy. He whispered, "Boss, Lu’s business is doing so well, and it has nothing to do with Wei Ronghua. I heard Lu’s promotions started twenty days ago, and that was all Lu Xiang’s idea. Wei Ronghua just ca to collect the benefits. We don’t need to pay him any mind."
Lu Sanzhu took a deep breath, "Shut up."
He couldn’t bear to watch any longer, so he turned and got into the carriage, instructing the coachman to set off without waiting for Grandson Feng to catch up.
Grandson Feng chased after them for quite a distance, "Boss, Boss, wait for ."
Seeing them leave, Wei Ronghua finally withdrew his gaze indifferently.
Hu Geng breathed a sigh of relief. Master was right; they didn’t have the guts, just ca to take a look out of unwillingness.
Since nothing happened, Hu Geng didn’t linger any longer.
"Master, I’ll head ho to wait for you." Although he wanted to help at the shop, he was now working for the Wu Family and couldn’t interfere in other people’s business.
Wei Ronghua nodded and handed the key to him.
Just as Hu Geng turned to leave, sudden cries of astonishnt erupted from inside the shop, startling him greatly.
"Wh-What happened? What’s going on?"
Wei Ronghua listened for a mont, then smiled brightly, "It seems the grand prize has finally been drawn. You go ahead; I’ll get busy now."
Without waiting for Hu Geng to respond, Wei Ronghua stepped onto the stairs.
Just in ti, Xia Yan was announcing the results.
"Congratulations to this guest for drawing the grand prize. We have three grand prizes in total, and this guest is the first to draw one. Congratulations. Now, let’s see what the prize is, shall we?"
The crowd craned their necks to look inside, and those buying lon seeds and receiving wooden tokens paused their transactions, eagerly gathering around.
By this stage of the opening, everyone’s curiosity about the prize, akin to a blind box, was imnse.
Xia Yan smiled as he approached the table and dramatically pulled off the cloth on top.
"Whoa..." Once they saw what was underneath, an uproar erupted among the crowd.
Soon, Xia Yan’s voice was heard introducing the items, "Here are the grand prize items. On the left is the golden hairpin, and on the right is the double-sided embroidery piece. Have you decided which to choose?"
As he finished speaking, the winner had yet to speak, but voices ca from the crowd.
"Choose the golden hairpin! It’s a golden hairpin, and getting it for two hundred wen is such a deal."
"Yes, yes, that golden hairpin is so beautiful, it must be expensive. Lu Sanzhu is indeed generous and open-handed."
"Why don’t I have such good luck? Aaaaaaah."
The majority of the people present were ordinary folks, but after the grand prize was announced, even so well-to-do young masters and misses squeezed in from outside, having heard the commotion.
Upon seeing the double-sided embroidery piece, they chid in with advice, "Choose the double-sided embroidery piece; it’s so pretty. How much can a golden hairpin be worth? The double-sided embroidery is rare."
The opinions were divided, with both sides clamoring loudly.
The young woman who drew the grand prize finally steadied herself. She opened her mouth, her eyes fixed on the double-sided embroidery piece.
But before she could speak, the noisy crowd was suddenly interrupted by the sound of a child’s loud cry.
"Wah...I don’t want it, I don’t want it..."
