Shen Xuezh Zhu looked at the shopkeeper and said, “Hearing you say that, you seem to be a reasonable person, unlike your store clerk, who later said I couldn’t understand what he was saying.”

“When he said that, of course, I was very angry. I wanted to clarify the matter before leaving.”

The shop clerk argued defensively, “I just told you not to touch the clothes in my store. You later claimed that the quality of the clothes in my store was poor and that touching them would ruin them.”

“Later, when a customer heard what you said, they left.”

Shen Xuezh Zhu calmly responded, “Is it necessary for the customer to have heard what I said in order to leave?”

“If you yourself said not to touch the clothes in your store, wouldn’t the customer still leave if they heard that?”

The shop clerk was left speechless.

He turned to the shopkeeper, saying, “Shopkeeper, I didn’t mean to say it that way. I was just upset. I won’t dare to say that again. Please don’t scold me.”

The shopkeeper looked at the clerk helplessly and said, “You, you really need to watch your mouth in the future, or you’ll scare off business with what you say.”

At this moment, Lu Xiaoli spoke up, saying, “My mother can afford the clothes in your store.”

“Today we went to the restaurant to sell some cured meat, and the restaurant owner gave my mother a lot of money.”

“Then we went to the market and sold a whole basket of eggs.”

The shopkeeper knew that children don’t lie, and seeing how wealthy Shen Xuezh Zhu appeared, he quickly apologized, “Miss, this is our fault; please let it go this time.”

Shen Xuezh Zhu, remaining calm and composed, said, “I won’t be buying clothes from your shop this time. The matter has been clarified, and I’m leaving now.”

After saying this, Shen Xuezh Zhu left with her two daughters.
