The old lady is reborn

Hua was stunned and couldn't help asking, "How much can they sell a set of clothes for?"

It's worth it for them to treat such kindness badly...

She asked this question with emotion and didn't really want to get an answer.

The little girl said seriously: "After my dress was mended, they sold it for more than two taels of silver.

The ones in the store probably cost four or five taels of silver. I should have preferred the broken ones earlier."

The little girl lowered her head after being overjoyed for nothing. The beautiful dress that looked like a dream really disappeared when she woke up, just like a dream.

If it's not broken, it's not your turn.

Hua didn't know what to say for a moment.

The little girl continued, "The two sets at the back, the good ones in the store are about five or six taels of silver a set, and my parents would probably sell them for three or four taels a set."

Hua felt a little uncomfortable. Her sincerity was ridiculous. She made a lot of money, but she only gave herself steamed buns and pancakes...

But on second thought, maybe this is a way?

More than half a month later, two neighbors brought two more sets of clothes, saying that Hua's craftsmanship was so good that some relatives saw it and asked them for help...

Seeing that Hua remained silent, the two of them hurriedly brought over a basket that contained a stewed chicken soup without any meat.

The two said, "A sophisticated woman would only drink a few sips of soup. My husband and I saw that you are different from us, so we specially removed the meat and skimmed the oil before serving you."

Regardless of whether this was true or false, Hua was determined not to continue doing things in this unclear way.

Seeing that Hua refused to give in, the couple said goodbye angrily. When they left, they did not forget to take the bowl of soup away.

A few days later, the couple came again and said that their relatives said it would be a pity to let the clothes go to waste, so they were willing to pay half a dollar to ask Hua for help.

Hua still refused.

The couple had no choice but to say, "What do you want me to do to make up for it? Please tell me."

Hua: “In the future, I will first check if the clothes you bring can be mended. If they can be mended, I will charge you different amounts of money for mending them.

Pay half of the money first, and the remaining half when you pick up the clothes."

"How much money do you want for the two sets of clothes I brought last time?"

When Hua was in the Marquis' Mansion, she had a good idea of ​​how much different kinds of fine clothing were worth.

I just don’t know how much the torn clothes can be sold for, and what price the couple can sell the repaired clothes for.

The little girl told her everything. She knew the whole thing and said, "The total cost of mending the two sets last time was five taels of silver."

"What?!" The two men left angrily. But two days later, they came back to Hua with clothes and half of the silver.

The little girl asked Hua: "Aunt, are you not angry with my parents?"

Hua smiled and said, "I'm angry, but it's useless to be angry. Besides, your parents have a good taste in choosing clothes.

The used clothes sold in clothing stores have also been carefully selected by the store owners, and those that are easy to deal with will not be reduced in price too much.

The clothes that were sold at very low prices were torn in critical places and very difficult to dispose of. The fabrics were not very useful after being cut.

The one your parents chose will indeed be very valuable after it is repaired.

And they are also responsible for selling it, so I don't have to worry about that.

It’s better to make some money together than to get angry and never talk to each other again.”

Hua made up her mind to add a little to the mending fee in the future to make up for the money she should have collected from the first two sets of clothes.

Hua said to the girl, "I don't want money, I just want to help you mend your dress."

The little girl opened her eyes wide: "Really?"

"Really, you can tell your parents, but it's only your clothes, the ones you wear. If your parents sell them after I mend them, they'll have to pay for it. I'll collect the money from the mending fees later."

The little girl laughed with joy.

"Will your parents buy you one?" In fact, Hua wanted to buy her a new one, but she was worried that if she gave her the new clothes, she would not be able to keep them, and she had no reason to ask for justice for the girl.

I was also worried that if I appeared to be lavish, it would draw the parents' attention and cause extra trouble.

"They will definitely buy it! Auntie will make it up for me for free. How can they miss such a great bargain?"
