Chapter 845 Causing Trouble at Home Again
Xiao's mother wanted to say a few words on Chunxiao's behalf, thinking that no matter how wrong it was, she couldn't hit her. But thinking of her recent changes, she said, "Did you forget or did you deliberately keep it a secret? You know it in your heart, and you didn't deserve this slap."
Chunxiao didn't expect that even after being beaten, her mother didn't seek justice for her: "Mom, how could you do this to me?"
Xiao's mother also looked cold: "As soon as you came back, I mentioned your second sister to you, but what did you do? I don't believe you can forget about it just by coming in from the alley."
When Chunxiao heard what her mother said, her face felt hot and she didn't dare to say a word for a long time.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Xiao's mother said, "Apologize to your sister."
After all, he was still too young, and probably felt too embarrassed: "I'm sorry."
After saying that, he covered his face and ran back to his room.
Seeing her run away, Chu Xue entered the main hall and said, "Mom, don't blame me for beating her today. With her temper, if we don't take care of her, she might cause trouble for the family one day."
Although Xiao's mother still did not quite agree with hands-on education, she knew that Chu Xue was right.
She nodded gently: "She is a grown-up girl after all, I won't dare to hit her in the face again in the future."
Chuxue didn't refute. After a light "hmm", she carried the thermos back to her room.
But before this incident was over, Chunxiao caused trouble for the family again.
Mother Xiao looked at the neighbor who came to ask for help and said, "No, Mrs. Cao, who told you that I have cotton?"
Mrs. Cao's eyes were full of calculations: "Sister Liu, your Chunxiao said that your second son brought back a lot of cotton, and that your second daughter has connections. It's all a matter of a word."
Xiao's mother dealt with the neighbors who came to visit her on the surface, but she was thinking in her heart: The first snow that day was not enough to hit Chunxiao.
When Chu Xue came back, she saw that there were guests at home. When she entered the house, she found that they were all neighbors nearby. "Hello, aunts and sisters-in-law."
Xing Cao's neighbor smiled and said, "We heard you have connections that can get cotton, so we were wondering if you could help us get some back."
Chuxue glanced at her mother and said nonchalantly, "To be honest, I did get some cotton back through my connections, but it's definitely not as exaggerated as Chunxiao said. You all know that my family just moved to the city, and the cotton padding inside my old cotton-padded jacket was all knotted, so I thought of adding some in.
I also understand everyone's feelings. After all, the weather has turned cold, and it's not easy for anyone. Since Chunxiao has a kind heart, she must be willing to help others."
After coughing lightly, he went to the next room and took out three pounds of cotton. "Is there any more? This is Chunxiao's share. I will give it to all three of you."
They just came over to ask, but they didn't expect there would be such a big surprise. They all thanked Chu Xue.
Then Chu Xue said, "If I want to thank you, thank Chun Xiao. The cotton you were given was for her thick cotton coat, cotton pants, and bedding. You should thank her."
Several people got cotton and were very happy.
Of course, the price was based on the black market price, but they were not asked to pay. Instead, they were asked to exchange it with tickets. Chu Xue didn't want to be a good person, nor did she want to give others a handle, but she still wanted to teach Chun Xiao a lesson, so she did this.
Getting one pound was good, and those people almost ran home to get the tickets.
Xiao's mother wanted to say something several times but stopped herself in the end, but she did not interrupt her second son.
After those people brought the tickets, took the cotton and left, she spoke: "Chuxue, just refuse them. Why did you exchange the cotton? I'm afraid there won't be enough for the family when the time comes."
