The carefree life of Yang Shuisheng, the village miracle doctor

"Two sets?"

When Yu Qianwei heard Yang Shuisheng say that she had to buy two sets, she was startled and her eyes widened.

"No, no, no! One set is enough."

She quickly waved her hand, her voice filled with surprise and embarrassment: "Really, one set is enough."

The underwear she was referring to wasn't the kind of simple vests and boxer shorts that girls in her village usually wore—sewed by themselves or made from a piece of cloth.

Instead, they were sold in a specialty lingerie store in town. They were the latest styles that were popular in the city, with underwires, lace trim, and bright, colorful designs. They were pretty, but the prices were shockingly high.

The cheapest set still costs ten or twenty yuan!

Slightly better ones cost thirty or forty, or even over a hundred!

Even the cheapest set would cost Yang Shuisheng several tens of yuan.

In the village, that's enough for a family's living expenses for a month.

Although she really wanted it, she felt bad about making Yang Shuisheng spend so much money.

Yang Shuisheng wouldn't allow her to refuse. He grabbed her wrist and led her to the street in town that specialized in selling clothes and shoes, saying forcefully, "Two sets it is! One for changing and one as a spare. It's settled then."

Yu Qianwei was pulled along by him and couldn't break free. She felt both sweet and a little uneasy, and could only follow him with a blush on her face.

The two soon arrived at a shop in town that specializes in women's underwear, "Pretty Woman Underwear Shop".

The shop is small, but the window displays plastic mannequins wearing trendy and brightly colored bras and panties, which look particularly fashionable in a place like Daliang Town.

Yu Qianwei stood at the door, looking at the lingerie in the shop window that she found somewhat revealing and embarrassing. Her cheeks burned, and her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground; she refused to go inside.

It was her first time coming to a place like this with a man, and she felt like everyone's eyes were on her, making her very uncomfortable.

"Let's go in and take a look," Yang Shuisheng urged.

"I...I..." Yu Qianwei stammered, her face turning bright red.

Seeing her shy expression, Yang Shuisheng smiled and pulled her inside.

"Oh, what would you two like to buy?"

The shop owner, a well-dressed woman in her forties, greeted the customer warmly as soon as she entered: "Young lady, you have such a great figure, our lingerie would definitely look good on you. Feel free to browse and try it on if you like."

The proprietress's gaze swept over Yang Shuisheng and Yu Qianwei, a knowing smile spreading across her face. She enthusiastically recommended several of the store's most fashionable styles to Yu Qianwei, including lace-trimmed ones, comfortable pure cotton ones, and ones with underwires for support, all in a variety of colors.

Looking at the exquisite lingerie, Yu Qianwei felt both fond of it and shy, completely unable to make up her mind.

She glanced at Yang Shuisheng instinctively, her eyes filled with inquiry and dependence, and whispered, "Yang Shuisheng, which one do you...do you think is prettier?"

Looking at the colorful and varied underwear, Yang Shuisheng couldn't help but imagine Yu Qianwei wearing them, and his throat went dry.

He coughed lightly and said, trying to sound calm, "They're all pretty. Pick whichever you like."

With a blush, Yu Qianwei finally chose two sets based on the shopkeeper's recommendation.

One set is white with delicate lace trim. The style is relatively conservative, but it makes her look more innocent. The other set is light pink with a smoother fabric and thin shoulder straps, making her look more charming and lovely.

"Wow, you have excellent taste, young lady!"

"Both of these are newly arrived styles, made of high-quality materials, and the designs are very fashionable."

"And these white and pink sets are all gone, only one left."

"Once this is sold out, we'll have to wait for the next batch," the proprietress said, praising the customers as she quickly packed the goods.

As Yang Shuisheng looked at the two sets of lingerie neatly folded and placed in a plastic bag printed with roses, his mind automatically filled in the image of Yu Qianwei wearing them: her snow-white skin, her slender waist, and her full figure wrapped in lace and satin...

He quickly shook his head to clear his mind and asked, "Madam, how much are these two sets?"

The proprietress smiled and calculated, "The white set is twenty-five, and the pink set is also twenty-five, that's fifty yuan in total!"

Fifty dollars!

Upon hearing the price, Yu Qianwei felt both heartache and sweetness.

She was just about to say it was too expensive and she should just buy one set when Yang Shuisheng had already reached into his pocket, ready to take out his money.

"Boss! I had my eye on those two sets of lingerie yesterday."

Just then, a somewhat arrogant female voice suddenly came from the shop entrance: "You said you were here to buy today, how could you sell it to someone else?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man and a woman standing at the shop entrance.

The woman was about thirty years old, with curly hair, wearing a very fashionable dress, with powder on her face and bright red lips. She looked like she came from the town or the city, dressed in a somewhat flamboyant way.

Standing next to her was a middle-aged man, wearing a shirt and trousers, with a beer belly and a shiny watch on his wrist, who looked like a small business owner with some money.

The woman strode into the store in her high heels, her gaze immediately falling on the plastic bag containing the underwear in the proprietress's hand, her face showing both dissatisfaction and a sense of entitlement.

"Oh, it's Mrs. Li."

When the proprietress saw the newcomer, her smile froze for a moment before she explained, "You came to see me yesterday and said you were coming today, but you didn't give me a deposit, did you?"

"I run a business, I can't keep it for you forever, can I?"

"Well, this young lady just happened to arrive first and also took a liking to it, so I sold it to them first."

"Why don't you wait a few more days? I'm going to the provincial capital to buy more goods the day after tomorrow, and I'll bring back even nicer styles for you then."

"Wait? I can't wait." The woman, referred to as Mrs. Li, immediately became displeased, her voice rising. "What kind of attitude is this? Don't you know how to do business?"

"I was the one who wanted it first, why did you sell it to someone else?"

"You have to give me an explanation today!"

She became more and more excited as she spoke, and her spittle almost sprayed onto the landlady's face.

The proprietress was embarrassed by her sharp retort, her face flushed, but she couldn't argue with the customer, so she could only suppress her anger and say, "Mrs. Li, you can't say that. In business, there's always a first-come, first-served order."

"I don't care!" Mrs. Li interrupted her rudely, then turned to the pot-bellied man at the door and adopted a coquettish and aggrieved tone, "Honey~ look at her! I was the one who wanted it first, but she insisted on selling it to that little brat."

"I don't care, I want those two sets of underwear today! Can you help me figure something out?"

The man was completely charmed by the woman's coquettish manner. He immediately puffed out his chest, swaggered into the store, and said to the proprietress in a conceited tone, "Proprietress, it's just two sets of underwear."

"Okay, I'll offer sixty! That's ten dollars more than your asking price. You sell me those two sets of underwear."

"Let this little girl go and pick out some other styles."

As he spoke, he glanced at Yang Shuisheng and Yu Qianwei with a condescending look, as if he was certain that adding more money would solve all the problems.
