They're play-acting, and Veronica is repaying a debt.

“Oh my,” said Veronica, speaking into the air, “what a tiring day it has been. My poor feet are so hot and tired. My dear little toes ache from the day’s walking and the evening’s dancing. They must be released them from their prison.”
She crossed her legs and pulled up her skirts almost to her knees.
“Dear Polly, remove my shoes and stockings.”
The maid did as she was told and knelt in front of her mistress. She looked up at Veronica, who winked on the side the tutor could not see. Polly suppressed a grin.
“Oh but, mistress, your feet do stink so terrible when you’ve been on them all day.”
“It cannot be helped. They must be exposed.”
Polly made a big show of unbuckling each shoe, and held each one up to her nose. “Oh, it do stink.”
