Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s-Chapter 88: Eighty-seven, Invitation
Chapter 88: Eighty-seven, Invitation
"What’s yours is yours; this is your godmother’s wish, and you can’t refuse it. Otherwise, your godmother will be upset." Zhao Aishu pulled out the watch coupon, stuffing it into Luo Shu’s hands.
Luo Shu smiled helplessly, "Alright, then I’ll accept it; thank you, godmother!" Having interacted with Zhao Aishu for so long, she had come to understand her temperament. After buying the watch, she intended to buy some gifts to give her in return.
There weren’t many watch styles available, Luo Shu looked around and chose a pair of matching couple’s watches for herself and Lu Hanmo, and also picked out a plum-blossom branded watch each for Luo Zheng and Luo Shan. Originally, she hadn’t planned on making a purchase, but she couldn’t fail to honor her godmother’s kindness.
After purchasing the watches, Luo Shu led Zhao Aishu to the clothing counter, planning to buy a coat for her.
The entire second floor was dedicated to selling clothes and fabric, but Luo Shu looked around for a long time and couldn’t find anything suitable. In her eyes, the clothes were simply too earthy.
After some thought, Luo Shu went to the fabric counter, planning to buy some material to take home and design a garment for Zhao Aishu herself. There were many tailor shops these days, so getting clothes made was quite convenient.
However, in this era, the color selection for fabrics was pitifully limited, mostly just black, grey, and red. Luo Shu took her time and finally managed to select three pieces of fabric, albeit with difficulty.
"Godmother, what do you think of this color?" The fabric Luo Shu chose for Zhao Aishu was a piece of dark red woolen, very suitable for a coat. Zhao Aishu had fair skin; the dark red would complement her complexion without being too flashy.
Zhao Aishu smiled and nodded her head, "It looks very nice, especially suitable for young girls like you."
Luo Shu smiled and asked the sales assistant to cut the fabrics she had chosen to her specified sizes and pack them up. For now, she didn’t plan to tell Zhao Aishu that she was going to make clothes for her. She wanted to surprise her with the finished garment.
"Aishu, Luo Shu." A somewhat familiar voice called out from behind them.
Luo Shu and Zhao Aishu turned their heads to see who it was and saw Qin Lanxiang, Zhou Chang’s mother. Next to Qin Lanxiang stood an elegantly dressed middle-aged woman.
Qin Lanxiang stepped forward, looking at Zhao Aishu’s leg with some surprise, "Aishu, your leg can walk now? Just now, I thought I had mistaken someone else." She had visited the Xu Family yesterday, and Zhao Aishu was still in a wheelchair back then. She hadn’t expected Zhao Aishu to be out shopping in the mall today. Luo Shu’s medical skills were truly miraculous!
Zhao Aishu smiled and nodded, boasting proudly, "Luo Shu treated me yesterday, and today my leg feels strong. I’ve been walking for so long and haven’t felt tired at all."
"Luo Shu, your medical skills are really amazing!" Qin Lanxiang smiled and gave Luo Shu a thumbs-up.
"Sister-in-law, is she the ’Little Divine Doctor’ that you mentioned?" the middle-aged woman beside her asked.
Qin Lanxiang nodded with a smile, "Yes, she is Luo Shu; Xiao Chang’s life was saved by her. Aishu, Luo Shu, let me introduce you, this is my aunt-in-law, Zhou Xuemei."
Zhou Xuemei extended her hand, shaking with Zhao Aishu and Luo Shu, "Pleased to meet you! As it happens, today is my birthday, and I would like to invite you both to my birthday banquet. I wonder if you are available?" Today she had asked her sister-in-law out not only to shop for clothes but also to inquire about Luo Shu. She had promised He Xiangyu that she would definitely introduce Luo Shu to her. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Zhao Aishu was about to decline when Qin Lanxiang spoke up first, "Xuemei’s home is very close to the compound, let’s go and join in the fun. It’s also a good opportunity for Luo Shu to meet more young people, which will be beneficial for her in the future." She could see that her son had taken a liking to Luo Shu. Coincidentally, she liked Luo Shu as well. It would be wonderful if Luo Shu could become her daughter-in-law. With Luo Shu’s medical skills, the Zhou Family would likely not object.
"Thank you for the invitation, but I won’t be attending," Luo Shu said. She had just met Zhou Xuemei for the first time; naturally, she wouldn’t attend her birthday banquet.
"Luo Shu, you’re probably worried about your younger siblings, aren’t you? It’s okay, you can bring them along. Xuemei, don’t you think?" Qin Lanxiang turned to Zhou Xuemei for confirmation.
Zhou Xuemei agreed with a nod, "Of course, the more, the merrier! I’m the kind of person who loves a bustling atmosphere." With Luo Shu’s high level of medical skill, being on good terms with her would definitely bring benefits in the future.
"Aishu, let’s go together," Qin Lanxiang urged Zhao Aishu. She knew if Zhao Aishu didn’t attend, Luo Shu definitely wouldn’t go either.
Zhao Aishu considered for a moment and then nodded, looking at Luo Shu, "Luo Shu, accompany your godmother to go." Lanxiang was right; taking this opportunity to let Luo Shu get to know more people from their circle would be good for her future.
"Yes, Luo Shu, let’s go together!" Qin Lanxiang and Zhou Xuemei said simultaneously.
"Alright," Luo Shu nodded in agreement. She knew Zhao Aishu had agreed to go for her sake; if she continued to refuse, it would seem ungracious.
"Great, then it’s settled. My home is at 39 Horse Factory Street; be sure to come at six o’clock in the evening!" Zhou Xuemei said joyfully. She planned to call Xiangyu as soon as she got home; Xiangyu would definitely be thrilled to hear this news.
