Chapter 54: Staring at Sisi with autumn eyes
Shen Sisi's scalp suddenly tightened. Is this her cousin... Chen Ting?
She turned her head and saw Chen Ting walking towards her with her arm around a greasy-haired man with glasses.
"She really is my cousin!"
Chen Ting was dressed very stylishly, with her hair permed in the most popular big wavy style, heavy makeup, and her high heels making a clanging sound.
"cousin!"
Shen Sisi smiled happily.
She had promised her aunt that she would send chili sauce to her cousin, but she forgot about it when she got busy.
When Niuniu saw her aunt, she called out sweetly, "Hello, auntie!"
Chen Ting smiled unnaturally, with a flash of resentment in her eyes.
"I heard from my mom that you found a man from Jiangcheng. We've only known each other for a few days, but you left with him on the train. You didn't even look for me when you came to Jiangcheng. I thought you were kidnapped by human traffickers and taken to the mountains."
This sounds like concern, but in fact it is full of irony.
The man with a slicked-back middle-parted hair next to her adjusted the frame of his glasses and looked Shen Sisi up and down in amazement.
"Xiaoting, is this the cousin you often mention?"
Shen Sisi instantly felt offended.
Chen Ting hummed, her chin almost raised to the sky.
"Yeah, she trusts men so easily, no wonder she gave birth to a child before getting married."
It sounded like she cared about someone, but the words couldn't hide the contempt in her heart.
Yang Huaidong looked at her with an even more frivolous look and licked the corner of his mouth playfully.
Shen Sisi finally came to her senses at this moment.
When she met Chen Ting, she was filled with joy as if she had met an old friend in a foreign land.
But she was full of disgust and wanted to trample her into the mud.
The smile on Shen Sisi's face gradually faded, revealing a hint of sharpness: "Cousin, please don't bother with my affairs. But are you and your brother-in-law engaged? When will you invite me to the wedding..."
It would be fine if I didn’t mention this matter, but I get angry when I mention Chen Ting.
She pursed her blood-red lips hard, and her facial features gradually distorted.
She still had the nerve to mention it… If it weren’t for Shen Sisi, she and Yang Huaidong would have been engaged long ago.
She was furious inside, but she pretended to be fine on the surface.
"We...will be there soon. Just wait! The invitation will definitely be delivered to you..."
From childhood to adulthood, Shen Sisi has always been superior to her.
After waiting for a long time for Shen Sisi's family to fall into poverty and her parents to die, she joined the art troupe and was finally able to surpass Shen Sisi. Unexpectedly, she lost face in the matter of marriage.
So what if the betrothal gift is large?
Isn’t Shen Sisi still raising the child alone?
The clothes he was wearing were the same style as two years ago, and there was a patch on the hem.
It seems that the man doesn't treat her very well, and he might beat her three times a day.
Thinking of this, Chen Ting finally felt better, but she was still furious.
"By the way, why are you alone? Why didn't your brother-in-law come with you?"
Just as Shen Sisi was about to speak, Chen Ting covered her mouth and laughed, "Isn't he unwilling to go out with you? ... That's right, it's normal for him to have such concerns as you, a woman with a child out of wedlock."
Chen Ting had a loud, sharp and thin voice, and soon all the guests in the hotel looked at her with contempt.
In this day and age, how can someone who has a child out of wedlock be considered a good person?
Those chaotic gazes fell on Shen Sisi's face, like burning fire.
"She's quite a pretty girl, how could she do such a thing..."
"If I were her family, I wouldn't be able to live..."
Shen Sisi took a deep breath and swept a cold gaze over everyone, scaring them into shutting up immediately.
His eyes swept around and finally returned to Chen Ting, which made her feel uneasy.
"Cousin, no matter how poor I am, I was still a soldier's wife who was married to a military officer with a truckload of betrothal gifts."
"Even someone like me is being scrambled for, treated like a treasure. You and your brother-in-law haven't even started dating yet. Is there something wrong with me or you?"
Her voice wasn't too loud, and her tone was as calm as water, but it was just loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
Compared to the frivolous loudmouth, this cool and beautiful woman holding the baby seems to be more reasonable.
Even someone like her is still interested, and she married a soldier, so there must be no problem with her identity and background.
On the other hand, when looking at the woman in leather jacket, everyone's expressions became complicated.
This was the first time in Chen Ting's life that she was looked at with contempt and inquiry.
She was so angry that her eyes turned red and she pointed at Shen Sisi's nose and cursed.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you compete with me?"
"I'm the mainstay of the art troupe, the prima donna."
"You are a peasant educated youth, unmarried and with a child, what qualifications do you have to criticize me..."
Before Shen Sisi could even open her mouth, some people around her couldn't stand it anymore.
"What's wrong with sopranos? Are they superior to others?"
"Hasn't your family been peasants for three generations?"
"The food you eat and the cotton clothes you wear are all grown by farmers in the fields. Who are you looking down on?"
Everyone was so excited that they didn't even eat, and their mouths were full of words of criticism.
Chen Ting didn't expect that a casual remark would arouse public anger. She was so panicked that she didn't know what to do.
She looked up at Yang Huaidong beside her for help, but found that this bastard was staring at Shen Sisi with his eyes full of autumnal colors. She could guess what he was thinking with her toes.
Damn Shen Sisi, she seduces men everywhere, even her Huaidong!
Shen Sisi didn't notice Yang Huaidong's obscene look at all. She remained calm and said, "Cousin, you may have forgotten that before you were ten years old, you lived in the countryside."
"Before they joined the factory, your parents were farmers, the kind of peasants you looked down upon."
"Don't think that just because you've been a city dweller for a few years, you can look down on farmers."
"What the big brother said just now is right. The clothes you wear, the food you eat, and everything you use, all of these materials were brought to the factory by peasants."
"You are indeed more respectable than the peasants, but in essence, we are all serving the people. There is no distinction between high and low."
"I advise you not to forget your roots..."
If you think deeply, there will be no sound, but once you do, it will stir up a thousand waves.
At first, the people in the restaurant looked down on Chen Ting because of what she said.
At this moment, everyone gave her a thumbs up, and some even led the applause.
There was a loud noise all around, and every round of applause was like a slap on Chen Ting's face.
Standing aside, Yang Huaidong also felt very embarrassed and ashamed.
He shook Chen Ting's arm away with all his strength: "You are embarrassing me!"
After saying that, he left Chen Ting alone and walked into the private room.
Chen Ting was so frustrated that she felt like she was going to die, but she didn't dare to get angry: "Chen Sisi..."
She trembled all over, glared at Shen Sisi, and then seemed to have caught something by the braid, and yelled at the waiter.
"You shop owners, you better be careful. If you dare to entertain any poor guy, be careful that you can't pay the money..."
Before he could finish his words, a large hand with bulging veins pushed open the door.
Gu Chengfeng leaned in wrapped in the cold wind: "Who said she can't afford it!"
