Chapter 89: The Incident Caused by a Dress (2)
One has to know that the school children will have a little resistance when school starts after a long holiday. They haven’t had enough fun and rest, so why is school starting again?
But no matter what everyone’s mood is like, after the family has finished eating breakfast, they will pack up and go to Chen Village primary school not far from Chen village.
The students in this “Chen village primary school” were not only the children of Chen Village. The children of the nearby villages all went to this school, and the name of the school was Chen Village because of the Chen family, it was the largest family in the nearby villages. And this primary school was originally proposed by the people of Chen Village.
When Chen Meng’er and her family arrived at the school, a large and small group of people gathered at the school gate. Chen Meng’er could tell at a glance that most of the people waiting at the school gate were first-year freshmen. Only freshmen were so passionate about going to school.
When Chen Meng’er and her family appeared at the school gate, they instantly attracted everyone’s attention. Who asked the three children of the Chen family to wear brand new clothes? Moreover, the style of the clothes was something they had never seen before. It was not available in the town or even in the city.
“Mom, I want the dress that she is wearing too.” A little girl wearing a new dress made from corduroy and hair tied up in two ponytails looked at Chen Meng’er’s dress with red eyes and acted coquettishly to her mother.
Before Chen Meng’er’s family appeared, this girl and her mother were the most eye-catching of all. The mother and daughter’s attire could be considered fashionable at this time. One look was enough to tell that their family background was not bad.
However, after Chen Meng’er’s family came, this comparison was not worth looking at.
And this girl’s mother was also a person who cared about her looks. Moreover, she was confident that the people in the nearby villages could not compare to them in terms of their family’s conditions. Therefore, she was also quite displeased when she saw someone stealing the limelight from her and her daughter. As soon as her daughter opened her mouth, she comforted her, “Weiwei, be good. Mommy will go and ask them where they bought this dress. When the time comes, mommy will go and buy it for you.”
“Okay.” The little girl smiled when she heard her mother promise to buy her that beautiful dress
Chen Meng’er heard the conversation between the mother and daughter. She stood beside her parents obediently, acting like a sweet daughter.
“Excuse me, where did you buy this dress for your daughter?” The girl’s mother sounded polite, but her tone made people feel uncomfortable.
Chen Meng’er unconsciously frowned.
“This. I don’t know where I bought it. This dress was given to me by someone else.” Liu Juan looked at the younger woman in front of her, who was more fashionable than her, and looked like a woman with a good family background. She suddenly became nervous.
“Oh, is that so? I didn’t think you could afford it.” The woman said with a disdainful smile. She turned around and was ready to leave.
“Auntie, you said that our family can’t afford something like this, but do you think we could afford someone like yours?” Chen Meng’er was very protective, especially the person that she had put in her heart.
“Little girl, you’re really right. Our family can afford it.” The woman slightly raised her head and said with a self-satisfied look.
“Oh? Is that so? I heard from my grandfather that the dress I’m wearing costs 100 yuan. Aunty, since you want it, I can ask my grandfather to help you bring one back from Beijing. You don’t have to pay for transportation.” Chen Meng’er didn’t even blink when she lied.
However, Chen Meng’er didn’t completely lie. She just changed the origin of the dress. She had seen the logo of the dress before. It was made abroad. As for the price, she didn’t know how much it was worth in terms of dollars and RMB. Therefore, she couldn’t figure out how much the dress was worth. However, Chen Meng’er knew that saying 100 yuan wasn’t much..
