In Langston Hughes' short story "Thank You, M'am," the phrase "a shoe got by devilish ways will burn your feet" is a metaphor suggesting that things obtained through dishonest or unethical means will ultimately lead to negative consequences or harm. Mrs. Jones uses this expression to teach Roger a lesson about the importance of honesty and integrity.
They can hurt your feet or "burn your feet" as if like a devil.
it means that when you choose to become a bad person with lack of manners, the only things would happen to you are the worst things "Shoes that come from devilish" means you go to the bad way of life and your feet will get burn because you are the devil and the devil lives in hell with only fire
I believe the answer is the following, but I am not absolutely sure it is true, sorry if it's not... She means that they really can cause trouble because they can burn your feet and can make them hurt. "Devilish" here means "like a devil" so they will cause trouble. Hope this helps :)
