Yu Dong was surprised that the mers in the world also went through growth spurt. However, she soon realised that the mers here were similar to the man in the her world no matter how different they were!

She took Yu Dong inside the shop where the the most fluffy and warm quilts were kept and pointed at the pile " these are the most comfortable and warm quilts in our shop! my granddad especially made them for winter , we sold five of them and I can assure you this quilt made our customer leave in satisfaction ! big sister you can touch and see them they are very soft to touch, your family will be surely happy about getting this quilt ! "
Yu Dong stretched her hand to the touch quilt even though the quilt was not as soft as the one in the modern world they were still comfortable to touch she nodded in appreciation then turned to look at the little girl " you are right this quilt is indeed really soft you can pack four for me "
The little girl immediately perked up and started to take out four quilts from the pile her movements were not silent at all thus the old mer who was sleeping inside the room finally woke up and walked out of the room only to see the mess that his little granddaughter was making in the store for a second he was speechless he looked at the three quilt that were already on the floor and then at his granddaughter who was tugging on the fourth blanket most probably trying to take it out from the pile and dump it on ground as well .
The old mer looked at hid granddaughter and immediately felt speechless , though he just woke up from a nap , he could already feel a headache coming " Mei , what in the world are you trying to do ?" The old mer asked somewhat exasperatedly .
Mei stopped her adventure of taking out the quilt and dumping it in the floor , turning to look at her granddad , she smiled revealing her pearly whites " Granddad this big sister came to purchase , four quilts and five mattresses from our shop , so I'm taking quilts out for her to buy "
Only then the old mer looked at Yu Dong who was too was looking at the mess , she originally wanted to stop the girl named Mei but then she remembered that elders shouldn't stop children when they are doing something out of their own will instead they should encourage them , and since the floor was fairly clean of dust , Yu Dong didn't mind it much .
The old mer looked at Yu Dong then immediately wished to slap his granddaughter , such a big customer ! His granddaughter should have called him instead of doing everything on her own but then he realised that Mei must have done it because she didn't want to disturb his nap - so , all the anger that the old mer had vanished in a puff , yet he still knocked on his granddaughter 's head lightly and chided her in a soft voice "You stupid girl , how will the older sister purchase these quilts if you dirty them by throwing them on the ground ?"
Mei was instantly unhappy , she worked so hard so that she and her granddad wouldn't have a harsh winter together but her granddad still scolded her , humph, picky old man - Mei poked out her tongue and complained " isn't it because of me that we can sell these quilts and mattresses ? Ask the elder sister , she founded me too cute and immediately ordered everything , isn't that right sister ?"
Yu Dong couldn't bring herself to refuse , so she happily smiled and willingly indulged little Mei " that's right , its because of your granddaughter that I'm buying so much "
Little Mei instantly beamed turning to look at her granddad with a superior smug look " see , I told you ! The older sister will definitely like the quilts that I chose !"
The old mer was both amused and angry still he didn't chid his granddaughter anymore , instead he pinched her cheek and dotingly spoke "Alright my little ancestor , why don't you go and eat your snacks ? I will take care of your elder sister from here "
Little Mei wanted to accompany Yu Dong in shopping a bit more but in the end the lure of snacks won " Elder sister , Remember to come back again !"
Little Mei knew that it might take her a bit longer to finish her snacks and by that time Yu Dong would be long gone , so decided to say her goodbye greeting beforehand , after saying goodbye Little Mei rushed back inside to eat her snacks .
" sorry about that , my granddaughter is a bit naughty " the old mer doted on his granddaughter a lot , so he didn't scold her but still he needed to give an explanation to Yu Dong who came to purchase the quilts from his shop " please give me a moment , I will chose four new quilts for you "
The old mer thought that Yu Dong wouldn't like buying quilts that were currently lying on the floor , however Yu Dong didn't minded it that much , so she waved her hand in an attempt to wave of the old mer 's apology " its alright , I will take these " but when the old mer continued to look a bit awkward , she smiled and added " if mister doesn't mind, you can give me a discount.. After all I am buying so many quilts and mattresses from your shop."
