Chapter 271
After leaving the store, Ning Meng Yao had no intentions to continue shopping, she thought of just asking Qing Zhu to simply sew two sets of clothes for her.
”Missy, let’s have a look at that shop in front, there are many people there,” Qing Xue glanced at the surroundings and saw that crowded store.
Ning Meng Yao’s sight followed the direction Qing Xue was pointing, the store was not too far away, so she brought her people over.
Upon entering, Ning Meng Yao was attracted by a lake-blue dress, it was the girdle of a short dress, it was light blue inside, and the outer parts were lake-blue on the outer sleeves and exhibited on the skirt was a flower embroidered onto it with ice blue threads, there were even butterflies with the same color above the flowers.
”How much is that dress?” Ning Meng Yao walked over to the dress and turned around to ask the storekeeper.
”Missy, this dress is the prized gem of our shop, but it’s not only a single piece, there are two pieces,” The boss walked over and explained to Ning Meng Yao.
Among the people who came to this shop to look for clothes, many ladies would fancy that dress, but in the end they were not fated with that dress in the end.
”Two pieces?” Ning Meng Yao was startled as she looked at the boss, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.
”That’s right, the other piece is a long gown for men, furthermore it’s the same color tone as this dress,” The smile on the boss’s face did not change.
Ning Meng Yao furrowed her brows, which means it’s a matching couple outfit? Ning Meng Yao smiled as she thought about Qiao Tian Chang: “I want these two pieces,”
”There is a question I want to ask this Missy,” The lady boss was not surprised by her intentions and simply looked at Ning Meng Yao.
”Ask ahead.”
”What does miss think about a man having multiple wives and concubines?” The boss’s words were a little seditious, but it was pardonable, who would wish to live only in pairs their whole lives.
Ning Meng Yao smiled as she said softly: “Having multiple wives and concubines are only an excuse to satisfy their desires, if they truly love someone, why would they hurt the person they love? Two people in a relationship is just right, three and it is too crowded.” The relationship she was after was to live in a pair her whole life.
The surrounding women had heard their conversation at that moment. When they heard this lady’s words, the crowd felt there was something not right, but when one thought about it, who could say what it was?
To put it in better terms, they were feeling helpless about it, who had ever told a woman they would not take in any concubines after being with them?
It was just an excuse used by those men for their own selfish motives.
The boss muttered Ning Meng Yao’s words in a soft voice, two people in a relationship are just right, three is a crowd. Wasn’t it true?
”Missy, these two sets of clothing are yours, a total of 9999 taels of silver,” The boss directly opened her mouth.
The crowd jumped in shock hearing the price, 10 thousand taels of silver could only buy two sets of clothing, it was simply daylight robbery.
However, Ning Meng Yao had laughed instead: “It’s worth it. Qing Xue.”
Qing Xue took out ten pieces of banknotes worth one thousand silver taels each and passed it to the boss, the boss returned her one tael of silver.
When the two took the clothes and were about to leave, a woman wearing a fiery red dress blocked Ning Meng Yao: “Give me the dress.”
