Final answer:
Based on the provided text excerpts, there is insufficient evidence to determine Mrs. Sommers' reaction after purchasing silk stockings, so the question cannot be accurately answered.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question refers to Mrs. Sommers after her purchase of silk stockings. None of the passages provided seem to directly relate to Mrs. Sommers and the silk stockings. Therefore, based on the given texts, we do not have enough information to accurately respond to the question about Mrs.
Sommers' reaction after purchasing the stockings. Without specific text evidence that matches the character and her situation with the stockings, it would be inappropriate to guess or choose an option that is not substantiated by the provided text excerpts.
