Chapter 8: Trouble at the Tailor Shop (2 / 2)

Xu Xiaoling asked and then came back, shaking her head, "It's still not possible, it's too rushed."

Fearing that Xiong Hanmei would get mad, Xu Xiaoling quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam Xiong. We'll think of a solution."

"The master is not here again, what should I do?" Li Shengnan was anxious and stamped her feet.

Xu Xiaoling was also anxious. The master in the shop was usually only responsible for altering clothes and some simple orders. Normally, Xiong Hanmei's order should be done by the master himself, but now the master is not here.

Suddenly, someone patted Xu Xiaoling on the shoulder.

"Sister Shu Wan!" Xu Xiaoling turned around and called out in surprise.

How could she forget that Sister Shu Wan is a tailor.

"Sister Shu Wan, there's some trouble in the store. Can you help?" Xu Xiaoling asked expectantly.

Shu Wan roughly guessed the situation and also saw the horrible-looking dress.

To be honest, she understood Xiong Hanmei's anger. The clothes she had been looking forward to for so long turned out to be a beginner's practice work, a mess.

It fits the saying: the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

"I can, but it's not for free. If you can accept it, then let's continue the conversation." Shu Wan glanced at Li Shengnan next to her.

"Senior Sister." Xu Xiaoling called out.

Li Shengnan's eyes were full of suspicion. She gritted her teeth and said, "This dress plus the deposit is fifty-five yuan in total. I'll give you half of it after it's altered."

Shu Wan didn't say anything, just looked at Li Shengnan.

Xu Xiaoling, who was standing by, bit her lip, feeling that her senior sister was bullying her. She had clearly told the master in the back hall to give all the money, but why did she only give half to Sister Shu Wan?

"How much does this crappy needlework cost?" Xiong Hanmei squeezed over and said to Shu Wan, "I haven't paid the balance yet. If you can fix it within two days, I'll give you the rest."

Li Shengnan opened her mouth, but was glared back by Xiong Hanmei.

"And give her the deposit as well."

"good."

Li Shengnan pretended to agree, but actually sneered in her heart.

When the deadline comes and the clothes are not altered, the old woman's anger will only be directed at Shu Wan, and she will be able to get away with it.

You can't blame her for being cruel. She deserves it because she is greedy and wants to swallow an elephant.

Before leaving, Xiong Hanmei said worriedly, "If you can't fix it, I won't pay a penny. The deadline is two days, don't forget."

"Don't worry, I will be there on time."

As soon as Xiong Hanmei left, Xu Xiaoling breathed a sigh of relief, "Sister Shu Wan, I'm lucky to have you here today, otherwise my sister and I really don't know what to do."

Li Shengnan sneered, "Why thank me? It's not like I'm helping you for free."

"Why do I hear a dog barking? Xiaoling, did you hear it?" Shu Wan scratched her ear.

Xu Xiaoling was at a loss, "No, where is the dog?"

Li Shengnan was so angry that she actually called herself a dog!

Shu Wan ignored her and turned to Xu Xiaoling and said, "Xiaoling, give me some needlework."

Li Shengnan sneered, "Are you really a tailor? You don't even have these things."

"Xiaoling, be careful not to be deceived!"

Xu Xiaoling was a little confused and didn't understand why her senior sister was so hostile towards Shu Wan.

Sister Shu Wan is here to help.

After all, only by solving the problem can the reputation of the tailor shop be preserved.

Shu Wan didn't even bother to raise her eyelids. "Won't we know in two days? At least it's more reliable than someone like you who can't even put the stitches in the wrong place."

Li Shengnan was so angry that she jumped up and down and wanted to say something.

Xu Xiaoling interrupted, "I'll take Sister Shu Wan to get the materials, Senior Sister, you can go do something else."

In the utility room, Shu Wan picked out some necessary tools, fabrics, and needles and threads, picked up her things, and went back to the compound.

On the way back, passing through an alley, I saw a circle of men sitting around a square table, and one of the faces looked particularly familiar.

Shu Wan narrowed her eyes slightly. Is Du Wendong involved in gambling at this time?
