Paris is a well-known fashion capital, at the forefront of fashion in almost all fashion areas, including clothing, jewelry, jewelry and crafts, etc., which can be said to lead the entire European continent.

Many of the world's leading designers and craftsmen also gather here. Every once in a while, new design ideas and trends emerge that will keep the whole of France following suit.

And the ladies and ladies living in Paris basically buy a new batch of clothing and jewelry every once in a while. Sometimes just because a new product is released, it makes something that was popular in the previous season seem a little outdated.

Bella doesn't have this obsessive pursuit of pop elements. Elena isn't actually the kind of vain person either.

However, this did not prevent Elena from developing a habit of enjoying shopping and shopping.

Just as the change of seasons doesn't affect Anna's love of desserts, Elena sees this act of shopping and shopping as an awareness that a girl should have.

Moreover, she also forcibly instilled this strange thinking logic to the two sisters, Bella and Anna.

Paired with her exuberant energy and intense curiosity, Bella calls her a "woodpecker behavior."

If you don't find something, you won't be able to live.

On this day, the Carlos sisters and Elena went out shopping together. Of course, this was an activity that was strongly encouraged by Elena.

If Bella's character were to follow, she would now be sitting in Madame Roland's salon as usual, sipping black tea and reading half of the novel that I saw only half of yesterday. And Anna must have been able to eat quietly all morning—a morning of eating and sleeping, to be exact, with a snack.

"I've heard that Olivia has recently launched some new styles, shall we take a look?" Elena said, "It feels like it's been a long time since I've been out shopping!"

"But I remember, didn't you just buy a dress last week?" Bella said.

And that skirt was only worn once.

"It's been a week!" Elena gave a rather exaggerated expression, "It's been a week!"

Is a week that long? It's only been seven days, and by Anna's standards, you can't even eat the row of dim sum shops on the south bank of the Seine.

"Do you have to buy new clothes every week?"

"Idle is idle anyway."

Elena said it as if it were a matter of course.

That textbook expression is as if he is expounding common sense that everyone knows.

Elena would go out shopping when she was idle, and from Bella's point of view, it was really hard to understand this particular line of thinking.

"What about the Medici family's fine virtues of thrift?" Bella tries to remind Elena of her family's ancestral teachings.

"Gee, it's not Florence anyway." Elena spread her hands, "Besides, my dad isn't here, who is showing it so simply?"

"Is it just for the sake of showing Mr. Cosimo?" Bella felt that Elena really didn't have any consciousness at all.

"But then again, Bella, why don't you like shopping?" Elena stared at Bella with wide, questioning eyes.

This kind of gaze instead gave Bella a feeling that she had done something wrong.

"I don't think there's anything I need to buy?" Bella felt like she really wasn't lacking anything.

"That's a bad idea," Elena said earnestly, "Shopping isn't something you do because you need to buy something. It's just shopping for the sake of shopping."

"Huh?" Bella said she didn't understand.

"Shopping is a very important thing in itself! It's like playing chess, it's important to play chess itself, and no one is going to play chess in order to win, right?"

"But isn't playing chess all about winning or losing?"

"Almost."

"It's a lot worse. Elena thinks this way because she can't win, right?"

"It's not important!" Elena squinted her eyes and said, "In short, it's not because you lack something to buy, but the thing itself, it's shopping."

Bella really couldn't figure out what shopping had to do with playing chess.

"But I really don't have anything I want to buy."

"No, I have to correct your crooked thoughts!" Elena said righteously, "Today you must, at least buy a dress. Anna wants to buy one too."

"Huh?" Anna blinked her big watery eyes, "But, I want to buy something delicious."

"You have to buy food, but you can't do without clothes." Elena said in a firm tone.

This time, even Anna was not immune.

"It's okay to run out and buy something, right?" Bella said.

"No, no, no, you have to experience the joy of shopping." Elena still had a natural expression.

"But wouldn't it be a waste to buy something you don't need?"

Bella didn't feel the need to spend extra money on things that she was unlikely to use.

For example, the dress Elena bought last week, the sun hat she bought last week, and the handbag she bought last week...... I feel like my house is running out of stuff. And the three of them lived in Paris in the first place, and now Elena had to continue to add to the burden of space arrangement.

"How can it be wasted?" Elena said, "I didn't throw them away."

"But, if you don't use it, it's almost the same as discarding it, right?"

"How can it be the same? I just don't need them 'for the time being.'" Elena deliberately accentuated the adverb "temporarily".

"But when will you need them?"

"That's for later."

"In other words, it's useless now!"

"Alright then, I'm not going to buy it today, I'll buy it for you and Anna." Elena said in a tone that seemed to have finally agreed.

But how does Bella feel that she is the one who is being forced?

"We don't have anything missing, do we?" Bella said.

"It's all said, it's not important whether it's missing or not, what matters is the process of shopping." Elena emphasized in an unmistakable tone.

"But ......"

"Oh, don't always be but!" Elena took Bella's hand and was about to move forward, "You're not short of money anyway."

"That's what I said, but I always felt that it was too extravagant." Bella doesn't like extravagance.

"Don't worry so much." Elena's attitude was very tough, "Listen to me today, you two, you have to buy at least one each!"

It seems that there is really no escape now.

"Ugh." Bella sighed, and had to follow Elena to the shopping street in downtown Paris, "Then we will say that we will only buy one at most."

It's not because of the money, it's just that Bella doesn't want to spend too much on this kind of thing.

She wanted to buy a few books more than clothes.
