Su Runrun was so angry that she almost laughed after hearing what Aunt Li said.

He clearly asked for things with his palms facing up, but he did so with such confidence, even with a tone of alms. I don't know where he got the confidence from.

Although she was speechless in her heart, Su Ruanruan was not worried at all.

Fu Wenjing would never indulge someone like Aunt Li.

"It's too late, Auntie. I didn't buy many, and I only have two or three left at home. I can't give them to you."

After hearing this, Aunt Li waved her hand nonchalantly, "Why can't you give it to me? Don't you still have three trees? Give me one, and let Guifang give me one. Then the three of us will each have two trees. Isn't that just right?"

"That's not what I meant." Niu Guifang said bluntly, "Why should I give Fu Qi's things to you just because you want them?"

Aunt Li frowned unhappily, "Guifang, how can you talk like that? The things are not yours. Isn't what you are holding someone else's?"

"I'm not like you." Niu Guifang sneered, "I'm like a sister to Ruan Meizi, I feel at ease taking what my sister gives me.

But you, who are reluctant to give away even one green onion from your home, now open your mouth to ask for someone else's rare thing. How can you open your mouth like that?"

If someone else was rebuked like this, they would definitely feel embarrassed, but Aunt Li was thick-skinned enough and it was not the first time she had done such a thing, so her expression did not change at all.

"Why should I be embarrassed? We are all neighbors, and I am older. What's wrong with you younger generations giving me some good things when you have them? Isn't that what we should do?"

Liu Huifang rolled her eyes. "Should what? Should? Are you my father or my mother? Why should I be filial to you?"

"you--"

Aunt Li wanted to say more, but Zhao Manman took a step forward and grabbed Aunt Li's arm.

Aunt Li was angry and she waved her hand rudely, pushing Zhao Manman aside.

It was because Aunt Li was old and had limited strength that she did not throw Zhao Manman to the ground.

Seeing Zhao Manman staggering for a few steps before she could stand steady, Aunt Li felt a little regretful, but she was unwilling to ask about Zhao Manman's well-being in front of Niu Guifang and Fu Wenjing. She just looked at Zhao Manman with a stern face, "Are you okay? Look, I was talking to her, why did you come up and pull me?"

Zhao Manman lowered her head slightly and cursed the old woman in her heart, but when she raised her head, a smile appeared on her face.

"Auntie, I'm fine. I just thought that since my sister-in-law and Captain Fu were unwilling to give it, then forget it."

Aunt Li was even more unhappy when she heard this, "What do you mean by 'count it?' Why should I just let it go?"

Aunt Li's tone was not good, but Zhao Manman was not angry either. She still smiled and said, "I think this shouldn't be expensive. Why don't Captain Fu tell me where you bought it? I'll buy a few for you, Aunt."

Aunt Li, who had been frowning and wanted to continue to be angry, immediately smiled after hearing what Zhao Manman said.

"Oh, how can I put it, Manman, you are like my daughter, so considerate."

As she spoke, Aunt Li glanced at Niu Guifang with pride, "People are just different! Some people don't care about old people, but look at Manman, she is simply a model of respecting the elderly and loving the young. When we evaluate the advanced people later, we should put Manman's name on the list, and she will definitely be selected then."

Liu Guifang was amused by this and laughed out loud without hesitation, "If you want to gain a reputation as an advanced person by respecting the elderly and loving the young, you can't just respect an old person like you."

Of course Aunt Li understood this and she just said it on purpose. But she was exposed by Niu Guifang on the spot and felt a little embarrassed.

Zhao Manman, on the other hand, didn't care at all. She smiled and raised her hand to tidy up the hair around her ears, "Auntie, I know you mean well, but I never thought about being evaluated as an advanced person.

I am kind to the old lady because she is a good person and is kind to me. I am doing this according to my heart, not for fame. "

After saying this, Zhao Manman turned to look at Fu Wenjing again, "Captain Fu, can you tell me where you bought it?"

Fu Wenjing remained calm, his eyes neither dodging nor evading, and he said calmly, "I didn't buy it. When I went out to haul things this morning, I helped a fellow villager haul some things. He didn't want to owe me a favor, so he gave me a few grape vines.

Perhaps because he was afraid that I would return the items, he left very quickly and didn’t even tell me where he lived, so I didn’t know where to buy them. ”

After saying this, Fu Wenjing nodded to Niu Guifang, "Sister-in-law, I'll go home first."

Niu Guifang hurriedly said, "Go back, go back, I'm going to go back too, my two naughty kids will be out of school soon, I have to go cook."

After the two of them finished talking, they went back to their homes without giving Aunt Li and Zhao Manman a chance to speak.

Aunt Li stared at the two doors closing at the same time in amazement, and then she realized, "They did it on purpose. It would be fine if they didn't give it to you, but when you said you wanted to buy it, he didn't even tell you where he bought it. How can a grown man be so stingy?"

Zhao Manman was not angry at all, and there was a meaningful smile on her face.

Aunt Li didn't wait for Zhao Manman's answer and looked at her with some displeasure.

After seeing the smile on her face, Aunt Li became even more unhappy.

"Manman, I'm talking to you, what are you laughing at?"

Zhao Manman retracted her gaze. "I'm not laughing at anything. It's just a grapevine, not something precious. How can it be as delicious as meat? Auntie, do you want to eat spare ribs or pork belly?"

When she heard that there was meat to eat, Aunt Li smiled again, "If you ask me, you're better, Manman. Let's eat pork belly, fattier one, and make it into big pieces of braised meat. It will taste better that way."

Zhao Manman nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll go buy it right away, Auntie, you wait for me at home."

"Go, go, the sooner you go, the sooner you'll be back!"

Zhao Manman turned around and walked away with brisk steps, and it was obvious that she was in a good mood.

——

Su Ruanruan stood in the yard and heard the conversation between the people outside clearly.

When Su Runrun heard Zhao Manman speak, she had a bad feeling.

As a time traveler, Zhao Manman also has a certain understanding of this era.

This sudden appearance of the vine might really make her realize something.

Su Runrun frowned, somewhat regretting taking out the grape vines.

Knowing Zhao Manman's background, she should have been more cautious.

Just as she was thinking about it, Su Ruanruan heard Fu Wenjing's voice.

"Wife, what are you thinking about standing here?"
