Chapter 80: Getting admitted to a department store

"Mom, I got admitted to the department store and can start working tomorrow."

Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly shared the good news with her mother.

Liu Cuilan's eyes widened in disbelief. "What did you say, Third Brother? Is there something wrong with my ears?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously: "Mom, you heard it right, I can go to work in the department store tomorrow."

Liu Cuilan was so surprised that she almost fell over on the spot. Her third son was so promising.

During this period, the news that her third son was kicked out of the department store for cheating on the exam was spread all over the village.

Although she tried her best to deny it, no one would believe her no matter how she explained. She just took this opportunity to publicize the good news and clear her third son's name.

After dinner, Su Xiaoxiao discovered that her mother, who usually didn't like to go out, actually went out for the first time and asked her to go with her, saying that she was going out to digest her food.

"Mom, we want to go too." Knowing that his mother was going to publicize the third sister's affairs, the two little brothers also wanted to go with her to show off their pride.

Normally, whether in the village or at school, because of Su's father's affairs, the two of them are always a head shorter than others, and people point fingers at them wherever they go.

Now he also wanted to take advantage of his third sister and straighten his back for once.

"Why are you going? Stay home and take good care of your sister Zhaodi and the child."

After Liu Cuilan finished speaking, she pulled Su Xiaoxiao out.

As luck would have it, I ran into Zhang Dongmei and her daughter as soon as I went out.

The two of them were surrounded by several aunts from the same village. Li Huilan was proudly showing off that Zhang Dongmei had been admitted to the city department store.

"Do you know about the department store? My daughter will be working there tomorrow."

Immediately, an aunt looked at Zhang Dongmei with envy: "Oh, your Dongmei is really promising."

"It's so difficult to get into a department store. But Dongmei passed just like that. Unlike some people, they were kicked out on the spot for cheating on the exam."

"You're talking about that girl from the Su family, right? She's never been a good student. If her mother hadn't begged her, no high school would have accepted her..."

As they were talking proudly, they saw Liu Cuilan and her daughter walking towards them from afar.

Li Huilan immediately raised her chin and said sarcastically, "Tsk, your daughter did such a shameful thing and still has the nerve to go out?"

Zhang Dongmei also looked disdainful: "That's right, you cheated on a department store exam. I'm ashamed for you."

The aunts around immediately echoed: "That's right, look at Dongmei, she has been excellent since she was young, and she got into a department store in this exam."

"Who said my daughter cheated? Did you see it with your own eyes or something?"

Liu Cuilan usually swallows her anger, but now she feels confident and speaks much louder.

"Dongmei, please tell her quickly, was her third daughter kicked out for cheating on the exam?"

An aunt looked at Zhang Dongmei.

Zhang Dongmei straightened her back immediately: "Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help rolling her eyes. She didn't see it with her own eyes, and she was the one who threw the dirty water.

She didn't say anything and just walked up to Zhang Dongmei and slapped her twice.

"If you hadn't mentioned this, I would have forgotten to settle the score with you. Zhang Dongmei, are you bored and always looking for trouble with me?"

Su Xiaoxiao did not forget that if she had not been smart, the interview at the department store would have been ruined by Zhang Dongmei.

"Su Xiaoxiao, are you crazy? Dare you hit me?"

Zhang Dongmei immediately rushed up and grabbed Su Xiaoxiao's hair.

"Get out of my way!"

When Liu Cuilan saw her daughter being bullied, she immediately rushed over.

Li Huilan refused to give in: "Don't touch my daughter."

As they were talking, the two of them started to pull each other.

The sisters-in-law who were watching the show around all took a step back. They didn't want to be affected.

Next, everyone stared in amazement at the four women in front of them tearing their hair and scratching their faces.

Hiss, the fight is so intense.

In the end, Liu Cuilan was the better choice and she pinned Li Huilan to the ground and started beating her left and right.

Su Xiaoxiao also kicked Zhang Dongmei to the ground: "Zhang Dongmei, if you dare to talk nonsense to me again, I will tear your stinky mouth apart."

The aunts around were dumbfounded. How come the mother and daughter usually looked so weak and fragile, so how come they suddenly became so tough?

Liu Cuilan spat at Li Huilan, "You keep spewing shit. Who said my third child was kicked out? My third child will be able to go to the department store to work tomorrow. If you keep talking nonsense, I won't be polite to you."

"What? Your Xiaoxiao also got admitted to the department store?"

An aunt spoke in disbelief.

Li Huilan had just gotten up when she heard this: "How is that possible? I think you're just bragging without worrying about your tongue sticking out."

Zhang Dongmei chimed in: "I saw Su Xiaoxiao being kicked out with my own eyes. How could she possibly pass the exam?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Everyone knew that the daughter of the Su family was not good at anything except having a pretty face.

Liu Cuilan straightened her back and said, "Anyway, my Xiaoxiao will be a salesperson in a department store starting tomorrow, believe it or not."

"Everyone can brag, but who knows whether it's true or not?"

Li Huilan rolled her eyes as she spoke.

Aunt Wang suggested, "I heard that the city department store has flashlights available right now. How about this? Xiaoxiao or Dongmei, if anyone can buy the flashlight for us, we'll trust them."

Li Huilan glared at Aunt Wang. "That flashlight is in short supply. Even department store employees might have trouble buying it..."

Before she finished speaking, Su Xiaoxiao spoke up: "Isn't it just a flashlight? Any of you ladies who want one can come to me to register, and I'll bring it back to you when it's available."

Aunt Wang actually just said it casually. She knew how difficult it was to buy a flashlight and wanted to try her luck. She didn't expect the girl from the Su family to agree immediately.

She immediately glanced at Li Huilan with disdain: "Huilan, your daughter couldn't be the one who didn't get in, right? Otherwise, why would the Su family's daughter be so bold as to agree to take care of her, while you're the only one who's being so reluctant?"

"That's right. I just wanted to ask her to buy a stainless steel water cup, but she made all kinds of excuses to shirk it. Maybe she's just a liar."

Li Huilan saw that the people who had just been supporting her had suddenly turned against her and immediately became anxious. "What nonsense are you talking about? My daughter passed the exam with a lot of effort. Stainless steel water bottles and flashlights are hard to come by. I advise some people not to try to show off."

Zhang Dongmei chimed in: "That's right, everyone can brag, but it would be embarrassing if you can't buy the things back."

"Who says I can't buy it? I'm putting this on the line today. Whether it's a stainless steel water cup or a flashlight, I can buy it for you. If you want it, just come and register with me."

Su Xiaoxiao's words caused a huge uproar, and several aunts from the village immediately rushed up and surrounded her.
