Moreover, Mrs. Fu took the initiative to speak up and proposed that she would cover the cost of the dress.
They got a free dress worth hundreds of dollars, why not take advantage of this opportunity?
Besides, their eldest daughter truly needed this dress for her blind date tomorrow.
They couldn’t have her meeting someone while dressed in rags, it would be a laughingstock.
Furthermore, if the suitor was not impressed by their family, he might not respect them in the future either.
Even though they wanted to marry their daughter into a wealthy family so she could help her own family later,
the premise was that their daughter had to have a say in that household.
If their daughter married in without a voice or the ability to control the finances, it would be a wasted marriage.
So, they had to be very careful with this, ensuring no mistakes were made.
A beautiful dress to set the stage was extremely necessary.
Now that someone else was footing the bill, why not take advantage?
Originally, Mrs. Fu, not knowing the price of these clothes, was confidently thinking that it was just a dress,
and even if she took one, Jiang Xin couldn’t say much.
After all, Jiang Xin also didn’t have evidence to prove the dress’s value right there.
Mrs. Fu’s calculations seemed good, but unfortunately, there is always someone better out there.
Who would have thought that Jiang Xin, when going out, would actually bring the receipt for the dress?
It was simply outrageous!
Any normal person wouldn’t be able to do that, right?
If Mrs. Fu hadn’t stolen Jiang Xin’s clothes just on a whim,
Mrs. Fu might have really suspected that Jiang Xin was deliberately setting a trap for her.
At this moment, Mrs. Fu was suddenly panicking.
Jiang Xin didn’t look too surprised by the expected answer.
Upon hearing what Mrs. Fu’s sister-in-law said, she directly turned to Mrs. Fu and said:
"You heard what your sister-in-law said, since you mentioned it, I’m not that petty. I can let you have a dress."
"But you all know my dresses are brand new, with the tags still on."
"If you want them, you must pay me the original price, as if I’m selling the dress to you."
Fortunately, this way, she could make some money in the process.

The styles of those dresses were ones Jiang Xin didn’t particularly like,
and seeing Mrs. Fu’s demeanor, it was clear she wasn’t entirely willing to pay for her niece with the dress money.
After all, nobody wants to be the sucker!
But since she had already committed, she couldn’t back out now.
Moreover, just by looking at her family, it was clear they were not to be messed with,
so if she changed her mind now, it would definitely lead to a quarrel.
Ultimately, this issue, no matter how far it escalates, boils down to family conflict.
So, if Jiang Xin agreed to sell the dress at the original price, there was nothing wrong with it.
Even if she sold it, Mrs. Fu would still have the charge of house theft on her.
Once Jiang Xin stopped speaking, Mrs. Fu’s sister-in-law nodded with satisfaction.
Then she turned to their eldest daughter, who had been silent in the corner since Jiang Xin and her group entered.
"Did you hear that, Danni? Hurry and bring out those dresses."
"We need to return them to the owner, then choose the one you like the most and leave it, and let your aunt pay for it."
The tone of Mrs. Fu’s sister-in-law was very sarcastic when she said this.
Ultimately, she was still a bit angry inside.
After all, they were supposed to get five dresses, but now they had to return four. How could she not be mad!
It was simply a disappointment!
When she looked at Jiang Xin again, there was a trace of scrutiny in her eyes.
Because they hadn’t seen Jiang Xin in person, when she entered, they just took her as a stranger.
