1 . She's in the body of her stepmother - 4

"Excuse me," the man said again .

"Excuse me . " He repeated as he looked around .

"Wait over there . There are a lot of people . "

It was supposed to be a persuasion, but it came out more like an order . I breathed a sigh and got out of the way as others pointed out .

You can't fight screaming in the middle of this crowded road . But I heard Iris very clearly .

"Apologize! Do it properly!"

You're good . My daughter .

Of course, the man seemed to think the latter . His face grew serious . I was looking at him as if he didn't know whether to stop Iris or stay with me .

That's not my problem but yours mister .

"If that's the case . . . " The man said and turned to me . The light from the sun seemed to have turned his hair from the light color of brown to a hair of gold .

His eyes were dark brown .

But the most striking thing was the man's appearance . Oh, he was handsome enough to impress me, but I'm too old to talk about a man's figure . I got through it all quickly .

"Excuse me . "

"Yes?"

The man who was about to say something seemed to have lost track and bit back . I spoke firmly with the dignity of an elder .

"Excuse me . Just leave it as it is . "

"But . "

"But no . It's just me . "

Iris could handle it . Against my opposition, the man couldn't leave me and began to stare at Iris and the young boy .

Naturally, Iris was quick to compose herself .

She grabbed the hand of the boy and dragged him towards me .

"Apologize! Apologize to my mother!"

"Mother?"

The boy's expression went strange . I knew what it was . You mean Iris and I don't look alike at all .

And there was a man who threw a similar reaction next to me .

"Was it a mother, not an older sister?"

"Passed . "

I slapped the man next to me on the shoulder and smiled like how a social life works . However, the two men responded that it was ridiculous .

Whether it is or not, I turned my gaze to the young child . He was really a kid . Suddenly entering a thirty-seven-year-old body doesn't change my taste, but I think he would still be a child in my eyes even before I entered this body .

I wonder if he is about 20 years old . He had brown hair and blue eyes, a bit like Ashley but not exactly the same .

They both looked a little flowery, or rather, in a good way, like rich kids .

Also somehow, he looked like an idol in my original world, which in other words, he's a handsome boy .

"So, honey, what about the apology?"

I tilted my head and asked . The boy looked unconvinced and looked at the man next to me . But when he didn't say anything, the boy's eyes turned to me again .

And the apology?

I urged him with my eyes, and the man beside me made a small noise .

"Khm . "

Only then did the boy bow his head and spoke in a crawling voice .

"I've made a big mistake, Lady . Please forgive me with your compassionate heart . I was disrespectful . "

"What?"

I'm sorry for what I expected was completely different . I didn't expect such a full-fledged apology . I was dumbfounded, and Iris looked at the boy as if he were crazy .

She even let go of the boy's hand and crept towards me .

"If there's any way to compensate for Lady's damage, I'll do anything . Like the sky! the sk-!"

Sky? What in the sky? While I was looking up at the sky, the man next to me ran like lightning and grabbed the boy by the collar .

And he smiled at me and said, "I'm genuinely very sorry . I have repented of my wrongdoing . Please forgive me . "

What kind of a gag combination are you guys? Mine and Iris' eyes were cold . The man put the boy's collar back and quickly mended his crumpled clothes .

"I'll make up for the clothes that are ruined . And I suggest you go to my house and rest for a second . . . "

He took the ring off his hand by saying so . It was a pretty big ring . Jewelry? It was obvious that the delicate colors were of superior quality .

Da .

The man handed me the ring and said, "Go to a restaurant on the next street called Fairy Spring, and if you do this, you'll get whatever you want . Have all you want . "

You want me to get myself something to eat? I looked at the ring in amazement . I think it would be better to sell it .

But the man grabbed the boy's elbow dragging him away from me as if he had read my mind .

"Oh, selling it is impossible . "

"Why? Is it magical?"

It was sarcastic, but the man burst into laughter as if he had heard a very funny joke . What? Why? What? I looked back at the said ring .

Some sort of symbol was carved . But if I go through Mildred's memories, it was not exactly a famous family crest .

"That's weird . "

Iris said and came up to me, she was also looking at the ring . I tilted the ring so that I could see it better .

"Have you seen this symbol before?"

"No . "

Mildred grew up in a noble family and remembered the crests of most families . Among them is a crest that Iris and Lily had taken themselves .

But the ring I am holding now was a crest I have never seen before . I looked at the ring one more time and wore it on my finger, or else I feel like I'll lose it if I just carry it .

"It's big . "

Iris threw a word from the side . I've worn it in the index finger, as such, I tried putting it on the middle finger but to no avail, the ring was still too big .

Which finger did this man put it on? I had to put the ring on my thumb . This is like putting a stone ring on a baby girl .

Arthur Young, you're welcome .

"Mother!"

Ashley and Lily, who had disappeared, came back looking for me . They were wearing smiles from their personal errands .

Yeah, I'd be glad if you guys had fun . I ushered my hands behind my back to cover my bleeding palm .

"Did you find anything interesting?"

"I sold flour in front Yoyo at a low price . "

Ashley said excitedly . But Lily, who opened her mouth the same way, was startled .

Holding my skirt, she asked, "Mother, are you hurt?"

Damn it . I checked the area Lily had caught was torn apart and clicked my tongue . Iris said next to me .

"Some stupid kid pushed her down . "

She and Ashley looked surprise . Then she asked .

"Shall we just go back?"

Oh, right . We came to buy clothes . I checked the proportion of people who seemed to have similar purpose to us among the crowd and threw a line of poetry back into the street .

Then I took a stealthy step . It was okay . It hurts a little, but I can walk .

Moreover, if you look back on Mildred's memory, many unwed ladies must attend parties at this time or another . The prince will be charmed and marry Ashley at a glace . Iris and Lily are not in the picture .

This is an opportunity for Iris and Lily . There is no chance of marrying a prince, but they can meet another fine man .

"Let's go . "

I led the children into a street lined with clothing stores and taverns . Unlike before, Ashley and Lily followed me closely .

"Come on . "

The clothing store was not a place I knew . When it comes to clothes shops where I used to live, there are a lot of pre-made items . Customers go in and look for clothes that match their preferred design and price .

Of course, it is very difficult to match the two .

But the clothing store here was excessively inferior and as of low class . Thus, already finished dresses was still not a thing .

"Hmm?"

I stopped, embarrassed to see the store full when I and the children entered . There were shelves in each wall, each filled with twinkling cloth . Is this a clothing store or a Neira box? (CL: Unfortunately, I don't know what she meant by that . The translation may be completely wrong)

"Are you looking for anything?"

The man bowed and repeated the question once again . He took a glance at us with a peevish look as if we were an inconvenience . You don't want to sell it?

"I'm here to see some clothes . "

The man laughed at my words, then leaned back on the shelf and sardonically said .

"My house doesn't sell that kind of stuff . "

The man may look older than me, but talking back to a customer is by no means willing to sell .

I don't have to buy it if he's that unwilling to sell . There are many shops other than here . With my head sharply tilted, I asked .

"That kind of stuff?"

"Look at your dress . You're walking around searching for canceled dresses and you're hanging around this shop with nothing of the sort . We don't have time to produce such a thing . Go wander about at the end of this alley . "

I didn't quite understand what he was trying to say . Nibbling his tongue, the man then said .

"By the way, women these days are so vain . . . . . . . . . "

The children froze at the man's words . I'm sure they never heard such rudeness before, but I have . I quickly searched Mildred's memory to find the reason why this man is behaving this way .

Clothes in this world are basically custom-made . When a customer tells a design that he or she wants, the manufacturer first draws the design he or she wants, and then produces it according to the size of the customer .

It takes quite a while, but there's nothing off-the-shelf here .

It turns out that the Cinderella in the fairy tale would also only wear the dress from the fairy .

I heard it . People who don't have money buy the fabrics and make it themselves .

Sometimes, you can order in a store and not visit it, because it is made to match the customer's size . It cannot be sold until you get it .

So, the store often turned over the finished clothes at a cheap price when someone showed up to fit them . To get even a thousand dollars .

However, the high-sounding store for nobility is abandoned .

All right, I'm gonna come up with that and I'm gonna go round about it .

"A cheap dye?"

The man asked what I was talking about so I respectfully turned my head and stared at him .

Mildred had a certain look when she despised a person .

I said, trying to look like her the best that I could .

"None of these red fabrics is dyed with an ISO, is it?" (CL: I tried to research what's an ISO but I just can't find something that makes sense . I apologize)

The man's face turned red, as red as the nearest piece of cloth .

"Muh, what are you talking about? It's your dress that is dyed with an ISO . . . . "+

"Swindler . "

I cut the man's horse off a single blade . Mildred's dress was never dyed with ISO . She was a wealthy baronet and would only dress in good clothing .

The cloth the man had taken out was far from this cow, even in color .

"That's a cowwood dye . "

The man's eyes bulged out at my words . It seems to me that I have hit the nail right on the spot .
