The landlord has multiple personalities and wants everyone to pay him.

Ye Shu and Xiao Xue studied it for a long time, and finally chose the Italian style.

They both felt that the British-style suits were a bit too formal and made them look old-fashioned. Xiaoxue also mentioned that when he was a child, the teacher his father found for him wore this kind of clothing.

"Yes, this design was just updated last month. The material is imported Italian wool, which is very soft."

Looking at the styles the two had chosen, Sister Lan turned around and went behind the counter to take out a roll of soft measuring tape.

The measurement process has begun. Ye Shu obediently raised his arm, a posture that inexplicably reminded him of the old man nailed to the cross.

My God, this is a bit like hell. Amitabha, I'm so sorry.

Just a moment ago, Sister Lan was so charming and alluring, but once she got to work, she was like a completely different person. Her seriousness reminded Ye Shu of his head teacher when he was in school, who was also a woman and quite intimidating.

When Sister Lan asked him to spin around, he obediently spun around; when she asked him to raise his arms, he obediently raised his arms.

While he was being a good boy, he caught a glimpse of Xiaoxue standing up from the sofa, walking over to Qin Lili, sitting down next to her, whispering something in her ear, and her face immediately turning red.

Qin Lili raised an eyebrow, looked at Xiaoxue and then at Ye Shu. Ye Shu couldn't quite describe the feeling in her eyes; it was as if she was enjoying the show.

Qin Lili turned to Xiaoxue and said:

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"Where are you two going?"

Ye Shu was still raising his arms and craning his neck to look this way, but as soon as he moved, Sister Lan gently patted him:

"Don't move! What if you measure wrong and the finished garment gets stuck around your neck?"

Ye Shu quickly stood up straight, and Qin Lili laughed:

"Little boy, don't ask little girl questions. You just stay here and be your clothes rack. We'll be back in a bit."

Xiaoxue also turned her head to look at him, her eyes seeming a little smug. Then she put on her sunglasses, grabbed Qin Lili's arm, and the two of them swayed out the door.

Ye Shu raised his arm, wondering where the two had gone. But he dared not move.

Because now Sister Lan really looks just like his grade head. Sister Lan is still wearing those thin-rimmed glasses, her eyebrows are slightly furrowed, her expression is serious, she is holding a soft measuring tape and wrapping it around his waist, muttering about his waist circumference and hip circumference, and then she is scribbling down notes in a small notebook next to her.

The relaxed demeanor they had while chatting just now is completely gone; now they're as serious as if they're auditing accounts.

No wonder this shop has been open for twelve years. Putting everything else aside, the way they take measurements is just plain professional.

But despite his professional expertise, Ye Shu remembered something else: money.

Anyone who can open a shop on this street is obviously no pushover.

I just heard that the material is imported Italian wool, so the price will probably go up even further.

Xiaoxue's wedding dress cost nearly 40,000 yuan, so his...

Although his mother transferred 20,000 yuan to him before he left, telling him that if it wasn't enough, he could have more.

But if it really exceeds that limit, he simply can't bring himself to ask for it.

He lowered his head and whispered to Sister Lan, who was still taking his measurements:

"Sister Lan, what's the price range for this suit?"

"Don't speak."

Without even looking up, Sister Lan made a mark on the measuring tape with her fingernail, frowned, gave a number, wrote it down in her notebook, and then said:

"You'd better not bother me now, or you'll end up looking like you're wearing your dad's suit. Don't blame me if you don't know."

Ye Shu was scolded, so he quickly shut his mouth and didn't dare to breathe loudly.

So he's just a clothes rack that can't speak now?

Oh no, he started missing Xiaoxue. Why hasn't Xiaoxue come back yet?

Xiaoxue, come back soon, I can't bear this alone...

To be honest, Ye Shu only realized how troublesome taking measurements was when she seriously bought a suit.

The shop owner took out his previous suit, which cost four hundred yuan, and just measured it against him with a ruler a few times. Unlike Sister Lan now.

She counted more than ten measurements just for the upper body, including shoulder width, chest circumference, sleeve length, cuffs, and neck circumference. Sister Lan would recite each measurement, and after writing it down, she would check it again. She was so meticulous.

Putting everything else aside, just for a sleeve alone, they measured the length of Ye Shu's arm, how her elbow looked when bent, and the size of her raised arm. It made Ye Shu's arm so sore that she could barely lift it.

After finally getting to his lower body, Ye Shu was still swinging his arms when he saw Sister Lan pass the measuring tape between his legs and then lift it up.

"Well……!"

Ye Shu groaned as he was being strangled. He felt that even breathing through his small intestine couldn't be more painful than this, and he broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.

Sister Lan remained calm, found the right spot for the measuring tape in her hand, then let go, wrote a number in her notebook, and then smiled.

"If you move around again, the force won't be the same next time."

When Xiaoxue and Qin Lili returned, Ye Shu hadn't finished taking the measurements yet.

Qin Lili, with a lollipop in her mouth and Xiaoxue holding an ice cream, saw Ye Shu standing there looking constipated and asked:

"Not finished measuring yet?"

"Soon...right?"

Ye Shu didn't dare to turn his head or move at all; he had been made docile by Sister Lan's earlier action.

Sister Lan wrote down another number in her notebook before taking off her glasses and saying:

"Alright, the measurements are done. Next, we'll finalize the sample."

She then pulled out what looked like a half-finished suit from behind and handed it to Ye Shu, telling him to go to the fitting room in the back to change into it so that the details could be adjusted according to the design.

After Ye Shu took the unfinished suit to the back and changed into it, it could be said that it fit fairly well, but there were still some parts that didn't look right.

Sister Lan was studying the clothes, pinning them here and there with safety pins, while Xiaoxue and Qin Lili were acting as advisors.

As for how many cuffs to have, what kind of collar to choose for the shirt, and whether to roll up or overlock the cuffs, Ye Shu was too lazy to care. He left it all to the two people next to him to decide. He was already in that tired state of buying clothes and didn't want to care about anything anymore.

Finally, Sister Lan printed out the compiled order and handed it to Ye Shu so that he could check it one last time.

Ye Shu glanced at it and thought it was pretty much correct. There shouldn't be any problems. Right now, he only cared about one thing: the price.

Sister Lan smiled and said:

"Lili's friend, I'll give you a discount. Shirt, vest, cuffs... it'll add up to 42,000."

Forty-two thousand is not expensive, really not expensive. The material, the craftsmanship, the location, inside and out, all fit Ye Shu's expectations perfectly.

But my mother gave me 20,000 yuan, so I still have to pay the remaining 22,000 yuan myself.

Let it go. Now that things have come to this, they've taken it down in thirteen moves, it wouldn't be right for me to just give up.

Just as he took out his phone to pay, Qin Lili spoke up from the side:

"Just give me 20,000, I'll cover the rest. Consider it a wedding gift for you two."

After saying that, she transferred 22,000 yuan to Sister Lan very quickly, without giving Ye Shu any time to refuse.

Ye Shu looked at Qin Lili, who was sucking on a lollipop and looking at her phone.

Ye Shu knew in his heart that arguing with her now would be beneath him and might even annoy her.

After saying goodbye to Sister Lan and leaving the shop, Ye Shucai thanked Qin Lili:

"Sister Lili, thank you so much. It's not like I'm even letting you pay for my clothes..."

"It's alright, I was the one who dragged you here in the first place."

With a lollipop in her mouth and one cheek puffed out, she glanced at Ye Shu, patted his arm, and laughed:

"Consider this an apology for my attitude towards you when we first met. You can't be angry with me now, and please don't keep berating me."

"No, no, how could that be?"

Ye Shu quickly replied.

At this moment, Xiaoxue suddenly cut in from the middle, grabbed Ye Shu's arm that Qin Lili had just slapped, and pulled him forward.

"Hey, you little ingrate, you carried me around when you were using me, and now you're jealous?"

Hearing Qin Lili's laughter and scolding behind her, Xiaoxue blushed and didn't turn around. Instead, she hugged Ye Shu's arm and walked quickly toward the car.

Ye Shu glanced at the street, thought for a moment, and decided against it; now was not the time.
