Chapter 747: Landlady

"It’s really beautiful." Wang Shuyun blurted out happily before Old Mrs. Xu could speak, "I just knew this dress would suit you perfectly."

"Mom, doesn’t our Lingling look beautiful?" She excitedly grabbed Gu Lingling’s hand and said.

"Hmm, the clothes are quite nice." Old Mrs. Xu pursed her lips and whispered, "Such a pretty dress, who wouldn’t look good in it!"

"You have good taste." The shop assistant said with a smile, "Our clothes are beautiful, but they’re also selective. This young lady looks even better in our clothes than our models!"

Old Mrs. Xu wasn’t impressed.

"Oh, stop," Old Mrs. Xu said, "they’re just coaxing you to buy clothes."

"Xiao Yun, I know you have money, but you can’t spend it recklessly like this." Old Mrs. Xu said earnestly, "She’s just a little girl from the countryside, why buy her such nice clothes?"

"Mom, Lingling is not only my daughter-in-law, she’s also like my daughter," Wang Shuyun said a bit angrily, "so I don’t want to hear you say anything bad about her again."

This was the first time Wang Shuyun had spoken so directly to Old Mrs. Xu.

Old Mrs. Xu’s face fell a bit, "Alright, I won’t say it again."

"So, when will you take me shopping for clothes?"

"Huh?"

Wang Shuyun was caught off guard by her question, "Mom, you want to buy clothes? Well, just wait a bit, I’ll take you later."

"I want to buy them here," Old Mrs. Xu insisted.

"But there aren’t any clothes here that will fit you." Wang Shuyun said, both laughing and crying.

No matter what she said, Old Mrs. Xu kept insisting on buying there.

Joking, go somewhere else? Where else would have clothes as expensive as here?

After Wang Shuyun bought them, she could return them later for a refund as long as the tag remained.

"Alright then." Wang Shuyun reluctantly agreed and led her to a store that made qipaos, "Then we’ll have one custom made for you."

This qipao shop was an old one, because Zheng Xiangjun loved wearing qipaos and had been a regular customer, so Wang Shuyun knew the shop owner.

"Well... custom made?" Old Mrs. Xu hesitated, "If I don’t like it when I get back, can I return it?"

If she couldn’t return it, then what would she do with a qipao?

She couldn’t wear it for farm work, and if she wore it daily, she’d surely be ridiculed as an old hag.

"Grandma Xu, custom-made items can’t be returned." Gu Lingling kindly reminded her.

"Then I don’t want it," Old Mrs. Xu pursed her lips, "I don’t like wearing such things."

Qipao shop owner, "..."

How could these be ’such things’?

"I liked the clothes at the store across the street, buy me something from there," Old Mrs. Xu pointed at the shop across the street and said.

Qipao shop owner, "..."

What kind of eyes does the old lady have? That shop across the street is a men’s store, how could that be nice?

"I like the color." Old Mrs. Xu added.

Qipao shop owner, "..."

He almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Color? Are you sure? Those black and gray colors are what you like!

Alright, the qipao shop owner didn’t want to talk anymore.

"Mom, those are all men’s clothes, you can’t wear them." Wang Shuyun said helplessly, "How about I take you somewhere else?"

"Is it the same as here?" Old Mrs. Xu asked.

Of course it’s different.

"If not, forget the clothes. Buy me a bracelet instead. There’s an old lady in our village with a bracelet this thick, it’s so pretty." Old Mrs. Xu gestured.

"Grandma Xu, is that lady from the landlord’s family?" A bracelet that thick, it’s terrifying.
