Chapter 124: The Woman with the Shifty Eyes
After such a little episode!
Xu Wanning and the others had no interest in continuing shopping.
………
There were already four or five women from the village sitting on the ox cart. One of the middle-aged women was staring at them with shifty eyes.
Zhang Hongyun looked at the bags of things in the hands of these educated youths and felt so envious. These city kids are really rich!
Zhang Hongyun's eyes lit up. She wished these good things belonged to her family.
"Xu Zhiqing, what good stuff are you buying?"
Xu Wanning was not stupid either. The people opposite her were staring at each other with their eyes almost popping out of their eyes. They must be envious of the things in their hands.
"Auntie, I didn't buy anything, just some daily necessities."
Zhang Hongyun narrowed his eyes and said, "Pah, who would believe that? Everyone in the village knows that these educated youth from the city are rich. They must have bought some good things and hidden them away."
"Xu Zhiqing, who are you trying to fool? Just show it to us and let us open our eyes!"
Xu Wanning smiled coldly. If you want to treat these foreign educated youth as soft persimmons, you’re dreaming!
"Auntie, what are you talking about? We didn't buy anything when we came here. But you, auntie, it seems like you bought a big piece of pork just now."
"Auntie, why don't you take some out and let everyone see it? This is the first time I've seen so much pork!"
Zhang Hongyun's face changed instantly, and she subconsciously held the package in her arms tightly, fearing that someone would really try to rummage through her things.
"Nonsense, I... didn't buy pork!"
The other women on the ox cart couldn't help but look over, wondering in their hearts, could this be true?
"Pandi's mother, you didn't really buy a big piece of pork, did you?"
"Why are you holding it so tightly if you didn't buy it?"
Zhang Hongyun felt a little guilty. She had really been cruel and bought three pounds of pork today. How did this damn girl know about it? When she bought the pork, she looked carefully and no one she knew saw it!
"Get lost! You're just listening to her nonsense! How can we afford to buy meat?"
Lin Qiqi chuckled and silently gave Xu Wanning a thumbs up in her heart, saying that it was great to let these ignorant villagers bully others.
"Auntie, just take it out and show it to everyone. It's not something you can snatch away!"
Li Wenjing patted his head and pretended to remember something.
"Oh, I remember now. I saw Auntie at the pork stall just now!"
The other women could no longer bear it and rushed to grab the package in Zhang Hongyun's arms.
"Pandi's mother, we're all from the same village, just show us!"
Zhang Hongyun was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead. She was held down by several women and the things in her arms were snatched away.
The women exclaimed in surprise. They knew very well what the situation was at Zhang Hongyun's family. They couldn't afford pork and fine grains at all!
"Oh my god, how come there's pork here? Why are there so many fine grains?"
"Pandi's mother, I didn't realize your family's food is so good."
Phew, Lin Qiqi couldn't help but covered her mouth and laughed. This is what they call "evil will be punished by evil". She deserved it. Who told her to bully others?
Zhang Hongyun glared at them and snatched the bag back. These little rascals are so cunning.
"Humph, what's wrong with eating shit? It's not illegal, what's it got to do with you?"
She just gave up and thought, what's there to be afraid of? It's just a piece of pork!
Several women were filled with anger, complaining and cursing:
"Pandi's mother, what you said is so heartless. Your family has been so poor for a while now that they can barely afford to eat, and you've often asked us to borrow food!"
