Chapter 508: Chapter 511 The Most Suitable One
His main point just now wasn’t that his sister-in-law was ugly, but rather he was emphasizing how much Brother Hong doted on his daughter-in-law.
This time he’s praising his sister-in-law’s beauty, saying she’s like a fairy is just an exaggerated way of speaking!
Sun Erhu couldn’t help but feel sympathy for Brother Hong, there was simply no way to communicate!
Qiao Duo’er couldn’t help but laugh out loud, Sun Erhu was about to get married, how could he still be so naive and adorable?
Sun Erhu was a bit annoyed, but didn’t know what to say, because no matter how he described his sister-in-law, there would be something wrong with it.
Qiao Duo’er said earnestly, "There’s always someone better out there, what’s this about being the best? I think as long as you find someone who is suitable for you, who you can grow old with and accompany for life, that’s enough."
Just like Tan Zhenghong, as long as being together feels happy, that’s good.
"In this world, I am only convinced by you, what you say makes sense, and you have a whole set of ideas!"
Sun Erhu nodded vigorously, Bai Yifan’s pretty-boy looks definitely weren’t his sister-in-law’s type. 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Otherwise, if his sister-in-law lost her temper one day, could his frail body withstand it?
Better off with Brother Hong, who was tough-skinned and could take a beating without fuss.
Cough cough... He was definitely praising Brother Hong!
Qiao Duo’er rolled her eyes at him, "I’m not buying your flattery, always so slippery with your words, just take a look at these colors and see if they’re suitable!"
"Whatever you pick is good, Chao Lian will definitely like it!"
Sun Erhu had no doubts at all, just by looking at Brother Hong, he knew his sister-in-law’s taste.
In the past, Brother Hong used to be just like him, wearing two sets of clothes a season, with layers upon layers of patches on them, looking very countrified.
Now, Brother Hong’s clothing colors and styles were very nice; you couldn’t tell he was a hunter at all.
The shopkeeper gave a thumbs up, "These patterns have just arrived in our store, and the quality is good too, you definitely won’t regret buying them."
"Then you have to give me a good price," Qiao Duo’er said playfully as she blinked her eyes.
The shopkeeper agreed readily, "You are a regular customer of ours, I definitely won’t overcharge you, three hundred wen per bolt of cloth."
He had given this price because of the beauty’s face.
After all, everyone has a desire to look good, but he was nearly forty years old, he was just appreciating her purely.
"The price is fine, but you have to throw in a few extra pieces of cloth for my brother, so he can make some new shoes to marry his wife."
Scraps are leftover corner and edge pieces from the fabric, perfect for making a purse or the upper part of shoes.
The shopkeeper brought out a basket of scraps, "These are leftovers from making satin clothes, if you see anything you like, just take it."
"Then I thank the shopkeeper," Qiao Duo’er said.
Qiao Duo picked a few pieces of fabric with nice colors that were slightly larger.
Chao Lian was skilled with her hands, and there would be hardly any waste of fabric in her hands, these pieces would probably be enough for her to make four pairs of shoes.
After Qiao Duo finished picking, Sun Erhu paid the money promptly.
The shopkeeper hesitated repeatedly but couldn’t help but give Qiao Duo’er a warning.
"In the future, if you see the young lady from just now, remember to stay away. Her father is a close advisor to the Emperor, and he has quite the power!"
Just now, a shop assistant in his store had accidentally offended that noble lady, and he was still sweating bullets over it.
Qiao Duo took the advice seriously, "Thank you, shopkeeper, I will be careful."
If that woman really had such a strong background, killing her and Sun Erhu would be as easy as crushing ants, and even if they were killed, they couldn’t expect justice.
In this world, the one with the higher office has the stronger argument.
This is a helpless reality, and to live in this world, one must accept it.
