Nan Feng returned from the county.
She had spent three or four days investigating and had finally decided on a two-story shop. The shop was located in a bustling area, with accommodations available upstairs, saving on lodging costs. She planned to refine the facial masks upon returning and make further plans once they were transported to the shop.
In the days she was away, there were no mishaps at Spikenard Square. Feng Gu was becoming more adept at sales. She was the type to lean on Nan Feng when Nan Feng was around, but when Nan Feng was away, she became more independent.
