"Ms. Fan, are you sure you want these two outfits?"
The shopkeeper looked at Fan Youling who had picked out some clothes and asked.
These two clothes are the most expensive in their store and the materials are the best, but the pink and yellow colors are suitable for people with fair skin. Miss Fan is dark and thin. If she wears clothes in these two colors, I am afraid she will
It will appear darker.
Fan Youling didn't understand why the shopkeeper asked so much and nodded, "I really like these two clothes."
The shopkeeper looked at Mrs. Wu. When Mrs. Wu heard Fan Youling say that she liked it, she closed her eyes and nodded, indicating to the shopkeeper that she wanted these two.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper said nothing more and asked the waiter to wrap up the clothes and also gave him two bellybands.
Two pieces of clothing, two hundred taels each, and a total of four hundred taels.
"Let's go slowly..." The shopkeeper sent the two of them out.
Just as he stepped out of the threshold, Fan Youling stumbled on his foot and almost fell down, but it was the shopkeeper's sharp hands that quickly caught him and prevented him from falling.
"Watch your step."
said the shopkeeper.
Wu looked at the ground under Fan Youling's feet and found it very strange. How could her feet be sprained on such a flat ground?
Then she saw Fan Youling bending down and lifting the heel of his shoe, as if the shoe did not fit and fell off, causing sprained foot.
"But the shoes don't fit?"
Wu asked.
Fan Youling stood up and nodded sheepishly, "These shoes are a little too big."
These shoes are not made according to her foot size. They are Mrs. Yun's old shoes. Naturally, these shoes may not fit.
Thinking that she had been wearing ill-fitting shoes for the past few days because she was in other people's homes and was embarrassed to speak, Wu felt a little sorry for this sensible, humble and cautious child.
“Buy two more pairs of the best shoes in the store!”
The clothing store also sold shoes and socks, so the two of them turned back to the store. The shopkeeper personally measured Fan Youling's feet, and then asked the clerk to bring out a dozen pairs of beautiful embroidered shoes for Fan Youling to choose from.
Among them was a pair of embroidered shoes inlaid with pearls, which were very beautiful and matched Fan Youling's size. She couldn't put it down and touched them several times. After putting them down, she looked at them reluctantly and finally selected two pairs of embroidered shoes with exquisite embroidery.
Mrs. Wu saw that she liked the pair of embroidered shoes very much, but she didn't choose them because she was embarrassed to spend the money. When the clerk was wrapping the shoes, she asked the clerk to wrap the pearl embroidered shoes together.
Fan Youling was overjoyed and said with a moved face that she didn't like those pearl embroidered shoes, so buying two pairs would be enough, and my cousin shouldn't spend any money on me.
But Wu didn't listen to her and paid the bill readily.
Fan Youling also asked Fan Youling to replace his old shoes and put on new ones directly.
Fan Youling naturally couldn't wear pearl embroidered shoes. Such fine embroidered shoes were naturally worn to banquets, so he wore embroidered shoes with patterns of wild bees collecting nectar.
The embroidered shoes only cost thirty taels per pair, but the pearl embroidered shoes cost three hundred taels. Unless a young lady from a very wealthy family could not afford them.
The shopkeeper sent the two of them out again. After seeing them walking away, he smiled and shook his head and said, "Mrs. Yun is a very shrewd person. How come she was tricked by her niece?"
The clerk was holding Fan Youling's old shoes and was about to take them out and throw them away. When he heard what the shopkeeper said, the clerk stopped and asked curiously: "What's the plan?"
The shopkeeper looked back at the shoes in his hand and said, "This pair of shoes is the same size as the three pairs of shoes that Miss Fan bought."
The clerk was startled for a moment, then looked at the shoes in his hand and said, "The shopkeeper doesn't know how to measure, so how do you know that this pair of shoes is the same size as those three pairs of shoes?"
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "I don't need to measure, my eyes are rulers. Throw these shoes away quickly!"
When she saw this pair of shoes, she would think of Miss Fan's plot against Mrs. Yun, and she would feel very unhappy.
Moreover, Miss Fan's behavior just now clearly meant that she felt that it was not good to take the initiative to ask for things from others, so she deliberately pretended to have a sprained foot to make Mrs. Yun think that her shoes did not fit her feet, so she took the initiative to buy her shoes.
The same goes for the pearl embroidered shoes. She showed that she wanted them, but she didn't choose them. Mrs. Yun, who saw it, took the initiative to buy them for her.
She obviously wants everything, but she still wants to make people think that she is sensible and not greedy. It is really disgusting to play such a trick.
