Chapter 1301: A Rich Lady

The second and third floors of this mall consisted of international brands. It was too expensive and beyond her budget. She could only afford to purchase domestic brands on the fourth floor.

She walked browsed through several shops and finally selected a black down jacket. The jacket was very long and reached to her calves. It was very thick and warm.

More importantly, this jacket was on sale and it was 60% off, so its price was slashed from 1,600 dollars to 600 dollars.

It wasn’t a cheap jacket but it was still within her budget.

“I’ll take this,” she said as she handed the jacket to the shop assistant.

“Would you like to buy anything else? How about a scarf? We have lots of new designs here; would you like to take a look? There are two designs that would look amazing with this jacket,” the shop assistant said enthusiastically.

She looked at the scarves that were on display on her left. The designs were beautiful but they weren’t cheap and the cheapest scarf would set her back by 128 dollars.

She couldn’t afford to part with 128 dollars for a scarf.

“No thanks,” she said with a wave of her hand. She could buy some yarn and knit her own scarf. She could knit very beautiful scarves because she had learned how to knit sweaters and scarves from her mother. She was familiar with many forms of knitting and the scarves she made were comparable to those sold in stores.

She went to the sixth floor and entered a store that sold premium yarn.

She selected the gray, white, and yellow yarn because this meant that she would be able to knit with three different colors and make three scarves of varying designs.

Then, she took the elevator and headed back down to the first floor.

The first floor sold jewelry and this was something she couldn’t afford.

She still walked around the first floor even though she couldn’t afford to buy anything there and admired the beautiful jewelry on display.

She stopped in front of an international accessory brand because a necklace had caught her eye. It looked like an emerald necklace that was encrusted with many diamonds as well as highly-prized jade.

She looked at the price tag and saw that it cost 2.88 million.

Oh my god, that was so expensive. She guessed that only the rich would be able to afford it.

She was marveling at the price when a slightly plump finger suddenly pointed at the necklace.

“Please show me this piece. I want to try it,” the owner of the finger said.

She turned around and saw that it was a middle-aged woman in her forties. The woman wore a deep red fur jacket and a big diamond sparkled on her ring finger.

He Xiyan froze in surprise. She had thought that it would be extremely difficult to sell this necklace but to her surprise, someone had expressed interest in it in an instant. This woman must be extremely rich.

The shop assistant practically flew over and greeted the woman with a smile.

“Mrs. Mo, this is a special edition necklace from our Mermaid Queen collection that was designed by the top designer of our firm, Mr. Nolan. There are only 30 such necklaces in the world,” the shop assistant said.

Mrs. Mo?

He Xiyan noticed how the shop assistant had addressed that middle-aged woman.

She looked at this woman and thought that she looked vaguely familiar. She didn’t know this woman and there was no way she’d come to know such a rich lady.

She guessed that she must have met her by chance somewhere.

She wouldn’t have known that this rich woman would one day play an important role in her life. Neither would she have known that she would become this woman’s hated daughter-in-law.
