Chapter 1320 - 180, Frost Pavilion_4
Xiao Linshuang refused to agree.
"Big sister, what are you talking about! What do you mean Silver is for me and the store is for me too? Our family has always been supported by your earnings, and now Second Sister earns a monthly salary at Red Smoke Pavilion; I am the only one who has been idling at home, doing nothing. Now that I can finally earn money to support the family, why don’t you want my Silver?" she protested.
Seeing Xiao Linshuang pouting unhappily, Lin Yuan couldn’t help but feel both amused and reassured. Indeed, the children of the poor took on responsibilities early—here was a seven-year-old already thinking of contributing to the family expenses.
"Silly little sister, what do you mean by idling? You are my sister, and it’s only natural for me to earn money for you to use. Don’t talk nonsense about idling!" Lin Yuan comforted her gently.
As she comforted Xiao Linshuang, Lin Yuan seemed to understand why she had once insisted on learning medical skills from Lao Fan, partly to cure their parents’ illnesses, and partly to earn some Silver for their family more quickly.
However, despite saying this, Xiao Linshuang still refused to have the Silver earned from the store registered under her own name. Unable to persuade her otherwise, Lin Yuan finally agreed to credit the earned Silver to the Lin family before she would give up. But in her heart, Lin Yuan made up her mind that when Xiao Linshuang grew up, she would give her the Rouge Store as her dowry.
Having decided on the Rouge Store, Lin Yuan did not want to sell rouge or face powder but rather the skincare products Xiao Linshuang had developed herself, such as Condensation Dew, which attracted women’s attention even more than rouges and powders.
Xiao Linshuang found these skincare recipes in some notes and ancient books Lao Fan had given her, and some she had come up with herself. Regardless, as long as the recipes were innovative and effective, they would surely find a market.
