what did Edla say to the peddler that he stared at her with boundless amazement?
Edla said to the peddler that the costume that he wore was a Christmas gift for him from her father and that he would not have to return it. Edla also told him that if he wanted any safe place for resting, during the Christmas Eve, he would be welcomed in their house. When the peddler heard all this, he was too pleased and stared at Edla with boundless admiration.
