"Okay, I'll help you observe then."
"Xiao Nuan, why don't you wait here for me? I'll go buy some vegetables first." Old Mrs. Ling said impatiently. She was worried that if she went too late, she would only be able to buy leftovers.
"Then you better be careful."
Su Nuan lowered her voice and said, "I'm going to find some acquaintances to buy some good things."
"good."
The two men split up, one went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables, and the other found a deserted place and sneaked into the mall to shop.
Su Nuan bought two dozen eggs, a chicken, two ribs, a pork belly, and a bag of tomatoes...
When Old Lady Ling came back, she found that Su Nuan had bought so many things, and her pupils dilated.
"Did you go to the black market?" she whispered.
"No, they are all from a few acquaintances of mine. I bought them from their stores." Su Nuan pretended to be calm.
Old Mrs. Ling quickly stuffed all the things she bought into Su Nuan's backpack and covered it with the curtain.
Su Nuan used the backpack to put the eggs and meat into the space, then carried it up and went to where the supply truck was parked with her grandma.
When they arrived, everyone came back one after another.
Su Nuan looked at everyone calmly, but found nothing unusual.
The last military wife to come back was a face she had just seen today, and Su Nuan didn’t know who she was.
The military wife noticed that Su Nuan was looking at her and smiled at her.
Su Nuan was confused. If it wasn’t her, then who was it?
"Comrade Wang, why did you come back so late?"
"Are you going back to your mother's house?" a young daughter-in-law joked.
Wang Ying denied it flatly, "No, I just went to the clothing store to look at clothes."
The young wife asked curiously, "So did you buy clothes?"
"No, I don't like it." Wang Ying responded indifferently.
The supply truck arrived at the right time. Wang Ying breathed a sigh of relief and followed everyone else into the truck.
After Su Nuan sat down, she looked towards Wang Ying's position. She was basically certain that the person who exposed her identity was Wang Ying.
She didn't know why she was doing this?
Su Nuan thought about it and took the initiative to chat with everyone, "I encountered a strange thing today."
"What's so strange?" the young daughter-in-law asked immediately.
"I went to the grocery store to buy something and was recognized by someone. That person insisted that I was Yue Haitang."
"I've been to the commune so many times and no one recognized me, but today I was recognized. Don't you think it's strange?"
The young daughter-in-law went to the state-owned bookstore at the time and was not present at the scene. She became more and more curious about what Su Nuan said.
"That's really strange."
"Even if they know that Yue Haitang's real name is Su Nuan, they don't know that Su Nuan is you."
"Did one of the military dependents in our family compound betray you?"
While the young daughter-in-law was speaking, Su Nuan had been observing Wang Ying's reaction. She sat there quietly, her eyes dodging, as if she was pretentious.
Su Nuan said without hesitation, "At present, it seems that only someone in our family compound leaked my identity."
"What have I done to offend anyone? It will be inconvenient for me to go to the commune to buy something in the future."
Ning Huani was listening at the side and suddenly asked, "Could it be possible that the person who leaked your identity is in this car?"
"You were not recognized before when you went to the commune, but you were recognized today. Someone must have known that you were going to the commune today and pointed you out to others."
She didn't believe that one could recognize someone through verbal description, so she was sure that Su Nuan was identified on the spot by someone else.
Su Nuan seemed to realize something after a while, "The people who know that I'm going to the commune today and who know my identity are all in this car."
In an instant, everything looked like an enemy.
Everyone fell silent.
"It's not me!" The young daughter-in-law was the first to raise her hand and speak.
"I went to the state-owned bookstore as soon as I got off the bus today, and I grabbed the last book."
As she spoke, she happily took out a book titled "The Hard Work of a Scientific Researcher's Life" from her bag to clear herself of suspicion.
Ning Huani saw this and raised her hand second, "It's not me either."
"As soon as I got off the bus, I went to the purchasing station and bought some old books for my children."
She quickly took out a book with yellowed pages from the backpack.
Others also spoke out to prove their innocence.
Wang Ying was the last to speak. “I went to the state-owned clothing store right after I got off the bus, but I didn’t like the clothes, so I didn’t buy any.”
The scene fell silent again.
The young wife suddenly thought of something and said, "Comrade Wang, isn't your mother's family in the commune?"
"All of us military wives' families live in other places, so we have nowhere to tell others."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Wang Ying.
Wang Ying pretended to be calm, "It's not me."
"If I go back to my parents' home, I will definitely come back after dinner."
"Besides, my brothers and their families have all gone to work. Who can I go to my parents' home to look for?"
The young wife didn't think that Wang Ying's family had gone to work. She turned around and asked Su Nuan, "Comrade Su, do you still remember what the comrade who recognized you looked like?"
Su Nuan thought for a while and replied, "I remember."
"She was a lesbian, with eyebrows as high as mine, and dark eyes, like a kitten.
