The use of "merci" adds an additional layer of sarcasm to her response.
At the end of "The Ninny," the Narrator surprises Yulia by revealing that he is actually a nobleman, Count Pahlen, and not the simple merchant she believed him to be. This revelation changes Yulia's perspective on their relationship and demonstrates the power dynamics at play in their interactions.
