Chapter 15: Cleaned Up
"It looks good, it looks good. I look good in whatever I wear." Jiang Xiaoliu said with a smile.
"You are a good talker, but it's the same as if you didn't say anything."
Yao Guixiang looked at Su Luo with a smile, "Luoluo, what floral patterns do you like? Choose a few."
Su Luo knew that Dacron was very popular in the 1980s, but in fact, this fabric was polyester, a chemical fiber fabric, which was not very comfortable to wear. She still preferred natural pure cotton material.
But unable to resist her grandmother's hospitality, Su Luo chose two relatively refreshing plain brocade fabrics, "Let's go with these two! I want something cotton for the other two."
"Okay, fine. I'll have some of both the Dacron and the cotton."
Yao Guixiang thought her granddaughter had good taste, so she called the boss over to buy some cloth.
After tearing the cloth, Yao Guixiang took Su Luo to the tailor shop to make clothes for her.
Thinking that if Su Luo gained weight, her clothes would be too small, Yao Guixiang asked the boss to increase the size.
It would take at least a week to get custom-made clothes, so Yao Guixiang then took Su Luo and the others to the supply and marketing cooperative to look at other things.
As long as it is for girls, Yao Guixiang will ask Su Luo if she wants it.
Su Luo did not ask for random things, but selectively asked for some practical things, such as soap, shampoo and the like.
Yao Guixiang took the initiative to buy Su Luo some cold cream and hair oil, as well as some flowery things that girls wear for personal use, in order to dress up her granddaughter.
I also selected some beautiful sheets and quilt covers and changed them on Su Luo's bed when I got back.
Grandma was very thoughtful, but Su Luo couldn't let her spend money all the time, so she gave her all the money she had.
Seeing her take out several hundred yuan, Yao Guixiang was so frightened that she quickly asked her to keep it. "This is what your mother left for you. Grandma doesn't want it, so keep it for yourself. Put it away quickly and don't let anyone see it. There are many pickpockets in the market."
"I know, Grandma."
Although he didn't want her money, Su Luo rushed to pay for the sheets and quilt covers.
In addition to daily necessities, Yao Guixiang also bought some egg cakes and malt sugar for Su Luo and Xiao Liu. She really treated Su Luo like a child.
Su Luo also bought a new set of clothes and a new mat for her grandmother, which made Yao Guixiang very happy and she kept praising her for being filial.
When I returned to the Jiang family from the market and had just moved my things into the house, I heard Ma Chunhua's shouting outside.
"Grandma Yao! Come out for a moment!"
Yao Guixiang had barely touched the bench when she heard Ma Chunhua's voice and walked out of the main room. "What are you calling? Erya's mother?"
Su Luo and Xiao Liu also came out to see, and saw that not only Ma Chunhua came, but also Ma Chunhua's two daughters.
The younger daughter, Li Erya, had been seen before. The tall girl with two pigtails next to her was Ma Chunhua's eldest daughter, Li Daya. However, since she started working in the factory, she changed her name to a more elegant one, Li Zhenzhu.
Li Zhenzhu had just returned from town. After hearing what her mother told her about what happened yesterday, she became curious about what the granddaughter of the Jiang family looked like, so she followed her over to take a look.
When she saw Su Luo appearing in the yard, Li Zhenzhu felt that the granddaughter of the Jiang family looked too ordinary. She was skinny and looked like a beggar who had fled from the war. She really didn't inherit one tenth of her mother Jiang Yunlan's beauty.
Jiang Yunlan was a famous beautiful girl in the surrounding villages. Unfortunately, she eloped with someone and gave birth to such a terrible daughter.
Li Zhenzhu naturally looked down on Su Luo and looked at her coldly.
Ma Chunhua looked at Su Luo again and finally realized that Su Luo looked a bit like a member of the Jiang family. Thinking of what happened yesterday, her anger rose again.
"Grandma Yao, who is this girl? Is she your relative?" Ma Chunhua pointed at Su Luo and asked.
Yao Guixiang glanced at Su Luo and nodded firmly, "Yes, she is my granddaughter, what's wrong?"
"Alright, you guys are really amazing! This girl teamed up with Xiaoliu to deceive people! What do you mean you saw it with your own eyes? Aren't you just lying to your relatives?"
Ma Chunhua rolled up her sleeves, her face distorted with anger. "Give me back my basket of eggs! Give me back my fifty yuan! You liars! You liars in cahoots!"
If Su Luo was not a relative of the Jiang family, and they had no relationship, Ma Chunhua would have nothing to say about her remarks.
But now that she knew their relationship, Ma Chunhua refused to believe Su Luo's testimony yesterday.
She still believed that her daughter was innocent and was forced to admit her mistake and was frightened by that girl!
"Who lied to you? The facts are clear. You, Erya, pushed Xiaoliu and almost drowned him. Who lied to you?"
Yao Guixiang also got angry. Why was this family so unreasonable?
"Humph, of course you would say that! You believe your grandson, but I believe my daughter! It's because of Xiaoliu and that girl that I'm laughed at by the whole village. It's all your fault! Return all the things and money to me!"
Everyone thinks that the Jiang family is not easy to mess with, but Ma Chunhua is not afraid.
Ma Chunhua sat on the millstone at the door and decided not to leave unless the things were returned today.
“That’s unreasonable!”
Yao Guixiang was very angry. Su Luo pulled her grandmother into the house and said, "Grandma, don't be angry. I'll go and argue with her."
Su Luo came out of the house and walked to the gate of the yard. She glanced coldly at the mother and daughter outside the door, and finally said, "I just came to Jiangjiaba to stay with my relatives yesterday. At that time, I didn't know that this was my grandmother's home, but everything I encountered on the road was what I saw with my own eyes. It was indeed your daughter who made the mistake first. Instead of going back to teach her a lesson, you came here to beg for things. Don't you think it's funny?"
"I can discipline my daughter myself. Do I need you to remind me? Who do you think you are? You're just a money-losing child born from Jiang Yunlan's elopement with a strange man eighteen years ago. Now you're running wild in Jiangjiaba!"
Ma Chunhua stood up, put her hands on her hips, and shouted with raised eyebrows.
You can scold anyone, but you cannot scold the family members whom Su Luo cares about the most.
"Pah!~"
Su Luo's face darkened, and she raised her hand and slapped Ma Chunhua hard on the cheek.
Although she looks thin, the most obvious change brought about by traveling through a book is that her fighting power has been enhanced.
Her body has not fully recovered yet. Once she recovers, not only one Ma Chunhua, but even a row of Ma Chunhuas will be subdued by you.
"You...you dare to hit me?"
Ma Chunhua was almost stunned. She covered her burning face with her hands and stared at Su Luo. She couldn't believe that the person who just hit her was this weak-looking girl in front of her?
"Why did you hit my mom?"
Li Erya saw her mother being beaten and angrily questioned Su Luo.
"Your mother deserves to be beaten! Who told her to say such bad things about my mother?"
Su Luo responded coldly.
"Mom..." Li Zhenzhu also stepped forward to support her mother. Seeing the red marks on her mother's cheeks, she became angry. She stepped forward and angrily questioned, "Why did you hit someone so casually? My mother just asked you a few questions casually, and you hit me so cruelly! You are so bad at such a young age and you don't learn your lesson!"
Just now I thought Su Luo was skinny and weak and didn't take her seriously, but now it seems that I really can't underestimate this girl.
"Get lost! If you keep talking, I'll beat you up too!"
Su Luo didn't want to waste any extra expression, so she directly scolded Li Zhenzhu and the others to get out of here quickly and not to bother her. If they did, she would be unhappy.
