Regardless of the relationship, matters involving money must always be clearly understood.

As for the final result? The shopkeeper accepted it, but he also gave a considerable discount.

Guo Shu's wife saw a set of clothes that she liked very much and asked him to bring them over.

Madam Guo tried it on and showed it to Guo Shu, asking, "How do you think I should take care of her?"

Guo Shu: "Mother looks good in anything."

"Alright, stop arguing with your mother. How exactly are you going to raise it?"

"It fits Mother perfectly. If you don't believe me, let Sister Qiu'er see. I may not trust my own judgment, but I'll surely believe Sister Qiu'er's words!"

Qiu'er was a maidservant of Madam Guo the Second. She had a round face and was very pleasing to the eye.

Qiu'er smiled and said, "Young master is right, this dress suits you perfectly."

"You just know how to say nice things to coax me."

Then Madam Guo had it wrapped up. The clothes were indeed quite nice, and Madam Guo liked them.

"Mom, should we buy two more outfits?"

Madam Guo shook her head: "No need for that, we have enough clothes."

Guo Shu: "Alright, now that we've bought the clothes, son will take mother to the jewelry store."

Madam Guo had no objection: "That's fine too."

Madam Guo didn't lack clothes and jewelry, but this was the capital city, and she had just arrived. She would have to entertain guests in the future, so she needed to get some new clothes. After all, the things popular in Jinghai County were not as exquisite as those in the capital.

Beibei was still in a bad mood, so she had two pieces of clothing packed for her and prepared to leave.

Similarly, Mrs. Duan and her daughter Duan Xinru were not in a good mood either, and although they bought one item, they also planned to leave the place.

It was quite a coincidence that the three people happened to meet each other.

Madam Guo the Second did not know Madam Duan, but she had met Duan Xinru. Madam Duan did not know Madam Guo the Second, but she knew Guo Shu. Duan Xinru knew both Madam Guo the Second and Guo Shu.

As for Beibei, she encountered two groups of people as soon as she appeared. They stared at each other, and for a moment, time seemed to stand still.

Actually, Beibei and Guo Shu had met once before, but Guo Shu was acting out of necessity back then. At that time, he was being bullied by Duan Kun and was rescued by Bobo. Beibei had asked him a question.
