Chapter 14 I Just Make You Lost Your Way
Su Li stuffed the clothes in her hand into Li Mo's hand, took out forty-five yuan from her wallet, paid the money, and then took Li Mo away.
"Li'er, you're so awesome! This is how you deal with a little bitch like this. I admire you! Can we do the same with Liu Hongmei?"
Su Li waved her hands, deliberately putting on airs, "Not for now. She is still useful to me, and I can't tear her apart at this time."
Li Mo was puzzled, "What's the point of having someone who covets your husband?"
Su Li smiled but said nothing, "Come with me to buy a pen."
Fu Jinzhou helped her so much yesterday, so she had to show her appreciation.
Su Li and Li Mo came out of the clothing store and went directly to the stationery store on the first floor. When they saw a Yongsheng fountain pen, Su Li was very satisfied.
It was not expensive and was practical. The black pen body emitted a faint glow. Su Li inexplicably felt that it matched Fu Jinzhou very well.
Because she had to go to Shao's house in the afternoon, Su Li broke up with Li Mo early after buying things.
When I got home, the women's meeting in the courtyard had not yet ended.
Su Li didn't like gossiping with these gossipers about the Zhang and Li families, but when she saw Mrs. Zhang, she stopped and greeted her, "Mrs. Zhang, are you cooking yet?"
"Teacher Su is back." Mrs. Zhang stood up with a smile, "Isn't today the weekend? My husband doesn't have to work and the kids don't have to go to school, so I'll chat with Aunt Li and the others for a while."
"Mrs. Zhang, I told you I'd treat you to sesame lamb. I just happened to be passing by and bought some." Su Li looked at the women gathered around the stone table, then turned and said with a smile, "Since everyone is here, why don't we eat together? I've lived in this courtyard for so long, but I haven't really chatted with everyone."
Not to mention Mrs. Zhang, the other wives and mothers-in-law also looked at Su Li eagerly when they heard about sesame lamb.
Aunt Li said embarrassedly, "How can I be so embarrassed? This thing is not cheap."
"Aunt Li, please don't be so polite. A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. We all live upstairs and downstairs, just like one family."
As Su Li spoke, she spread the sesame lamb wrapped in oil paper on the stone table, and the fragrance wafted from far away.
She urged everyone to try it and eat together. Suddenly, the wives and mothers in the courtyard burst into laughter.
"Teacher Su, we've been talking about you all morning since you were away from home."
Aunt Li saw Shao Ting'an and Zhao Xinran go out one after another, and just came back one after another. Thinking of the scene she saw last night, she always felt that something was not normal. She was chatting with several daughters-in-law.
"What are you saying about me?"
Su Li was almost certain that it was related to Shao Ting'an and Zhao Xinran, so she pretended to be ignorant.
Aunt Li smacked her lips and whispered, "Teacher Su, don't blame me for being nosy. It's better not to let your student be alone with Xiao Shao when you're not home."
"Aunt Li, you're overthinking it. Don't you know who Ting'an is?" Su Li smiled. "We both treat Xinran as our own sister. During the famine, Xinran's mother gave me a corn bun. Now her child is my student, so I know how to repay the kindness."
"Teacher Su, we still need to be on guard. Section Chief Shao won't do that. It doesn't mean that a girl that old doesn't have other thoughts."
"Thank you all for your kindness, sisters-in-law. I'll keep an eye on it. It's getting late, so I'll go up first."
Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they are not easy to remove.
The better Shao Ting'an maintains his image and the more deeply rooted it is, the harder he will fall when the truth is revealed in the future.
When Su Li got home, Zhao Xinran was cooking in the kitchen and Shao Tingan was studying his drawings at the desk.
Everything is the same as before, so natural and harmonious, but upon closer inspection, it seems a little abnormal.
A single man and a single woman in the same room don't feel uncomfortable, but rather like a family.
"Ting'an, look at the skirt I bought. Does it look good?"
For the first time, Su Li showed off her new clothes in front of Shao Tingan in front of Zhao Xinran.
She held the clothes and tried them on herself, the joy and love for the skirt clearly showing on her face.
Shao Ting'an nodded. "It looks pretty good. I've never seen you wear pink before. It suits you well."
"Well, the style is nice, I fell in love with it at first sight."
When Zhao Xinran came out of the kitchen and saw Su Li's pink dress, her eyes widened. It was really beautiful.
When Su Li saw Zhao Xinran, she slowly put away her clothes and the smile on her face turned into embarrassment.
"Oops, I forgot Xinran is at home."
Su Li put away her clothes and said apologetically, "I was in a hurry today and didn't have time to bring you anything. I will definitely not forget next time."
"It's okay, Mr. Su, you've already given me a lot."
As Zhao Xinran spoke, her eyes were still fixed on the dress in Su Li's hand. She liked this pink color the best.
But Su Li had never worn pink clothes. When she saw this dress today, the first thing she thought of was that Zhao Xinran liked pink.
Su Li put down her things and went to the kitchen to help cook.
"Xinran, take a break. I'll do it."
"Teacher Su, I'm almost done. You just came back and you're sweating."
"I'm not hot, I'll help you wash the pot."
As Su Li spoke, she took a bowl of water and prepared to wash the pot. When she turned around, she accidentally bumped into Zhao Xinran.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Xinran. I couldn't help you and even got your clothes wet." Su Li said apologetically, pulling Zhao Xinran out. "Hurry up and change your clothes."
"Teacher Su, my clothes are not dry yet. They are not very wet. They will dry soon."
Zhao Xinran left a spare set of clothes at Su Li's house, and she hadn't brought her things over before the holiday.
"That won't do. How can you take the exam tomorrow if you have a cold? I have clothes. I'll get you one of my skirts."
Zhao Xinran couldn't refuse Su Li's kindness, so she followed her to her room. When she took Su Li's old skirt, she forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Teacher Su!"
You change first, I'll go to the kitchen.
Su Li smiled with her lips curved, still the good teacher and good sister as before.
Watching Su Li go out, Zhao Xinran reached out and touched the new skirt on the bed. The knuckles of his hand holding the old clothes turned white.
Shao Ting'an looked at Zhao Xinran coming out of the bedroom, and his eyes couldn't help but darken a little.
Zhao Xinran was bigger than Su Li, and although thin, she wasn't as petite as Su Li. Therefore, the clothes were a bit tight on her, especially around her chest and hips.
It looks very seductive, and obviously a bit frivolous.
Su Li looked at her with a bit more scrutiny, which made Zhao Xinran feel a little embarrassed. "I'm not as pretty as Teacher Su. It will look ugly in me."
"Modestly, you look better in it than me, and you have a more feminine touch."
In fact, Zhao Xinran feels that she is more feminine than Su Li, or to use a fashionable word, sexy!
"Teacher Su, you're praising me again. You've been praising me a lot lately. Aren't you afraid that I'll become proud?"
Su Li smiled and thought: I'm not praising you for being proud, I'm just trying to make you lose your way.
"You're so outstanding, it's hard for me not to praise you. I even praised you in a letter to your mother."
The two chatted and laughed, and even while eating, Shao Tingan glanced at Zhao Xinran from time to time, but Su Li pretended not to see it.
"Ting'an, if there are any good guys in your factory, remember to keep Xinran on your side. She's already a sophomore and ready to date."
Suddenly, Su Li didn't call his name, and Shao Ting'an had a mouthful of noodles stuck in his throat. He coughed until tears filled his eyes.
