Chapter 1585 First Prize: A Doll
The shrill, angry cry instantly silenced all the guests who were excitedly discussing and eager to decide the prizes for the little girl. Everyone, including Shu Yu, turned to look at the crying girl.
The child, who looked about four or five years old, stood next to the young woman who had won the first prize, his head tilted back, eyes closed, tears streaming down his face.
The young woman was startled and quickly knelt down to comfort her, "Shuangshuang, what's wrong? Don't cry, Mom is here."
The little girl named Shuangshuang was patted on the back and coaxed a few times, and her voice did become a little lower, but her crying did not lessen at all.
Fortunately, she explained the reason while crying, "I don't want the hairpin, I don't want the ornament, I want the doll, I want the flowery doll. Waaah... I don't want it, I was the one who drew the ticket, I want the doll."
Everyone immediately understood.
The young woman was a little troubled. "But we won the first prize, while the plush toy is only a fourth prize. The first prize is better than the fourth prize."
Others echoed and offered their advice.
But such arguments are useless to a tiny child who has been pampered since childhood. She cannot accept such reasons, such as first prize or fourth prize.
"Mom, you promised me you'd come and draw the doll. I want the doll."
A hint of embarrassment flashed across the young woman's face. That's what she said, but didn't she draw something even better? That double-sided embroidered ornament was so beautiful, worth far more than the doll. If she missed it, it would be gone forever.
But my daughter doesn't understand any of this; all she wants is the doll.
The young woman was increasingly troubled. Finally, when her daughter was crying so hard she almost passed out, she couldn't help but sigh and looked up at Shu Yu, "Lu Xiangjun, um... can we buy the plush toy?"
Shu Yu shook her head. "I'm sorry, we only have a limited number of plush toys prepared, they're all for prizes. If we could sell them, we wouldn't have enough for the fourth prize."
The plush toys aren't expensive, and there are plenty of wealthy people who come to buy them. If someone likes one and wants to buy it, then it'll be sold out in no time.
The young woman gritted her teeth and asked, "Then, can I exchange the first prize for the fourth prize?"
This request isn't unreasonable, since it involves exchanging a higher-level award for a lower-level one.
However, once something starts, it can easily get out of control.
Since it's a lottery, there must be rules to follow. Otherwise, if people are dissatisfied with this or that and want to change things, then there's no point in setting up the prizes.
Shu Yu shook her head again. Just as the lady was frowning in disappointment, she suddenly spoke up again, "We have rules for our lottery. However, what happens to our customers after they take their prizes and leave our shop is not something we can control."
As soon as these words were spoken, the others immediately understood. Seeing that the little girl was still crying, they suggested to the young woman, "You can ask the customer who won the fourth prize to buy it."
The plush toys must be very cheap.
This young woman seemed to come from a well-off family; she could have easily asked someone from a poor family who had won the fourth prize to exchange it.
But the young woman had this idea from the beginning. Ever since her daughter passed by the shop and saw someone holding a plush toy and shouting that she wanted it, she had gone up to talk to that person.
Unfortunately, the person who won the fourth prize and chose the plush toy is obviously not short of money. Why would they sell something they like?
The young woman had no choice but to discuss it with her daughter. They agreed to go into the store and draw a prize, and she was allowed to draw the prize herself and not make a fuss if she didn't win.
