Chapter 33: If a dog bites you, you can’t bite it back
Zhao Xiumei and Jiang Tang hurried over and finally arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, but it was still a little late. The line to buy meat was already very long.
Zhao Xiumei muttered angrily, "I'm so pissed off! It's all the fault of that bus driver, he drove so slowly. No matter how hard we tried to urge him, he wouldn't go any faster. We're arriving so late. If we can't buy meat, we'll have waited in line for nothing. My third daughter has her birthday today, and I promised to buy her some meat and make her pork belly."
When Jiang Tang heard this, he finally understood why Zhao Xiumei was so anxious today. It turned out that it was because of her daughter's birthday.
Zhao Xiumei's three daughters are named Zhao Danniu, Zhao Erniu, and Zhao Sanniu, which are very easy to remember.
The original text constantly belittles Zhao Xiumei for not being able to give birth to a son, saying that a woman who cannot give birth to a son is an imperfect woman, and people around her also point fingers at Zhao Xiumei behind her back.
But after getting to know each other for the past few days, Jiang Tang discovered that Zhao Xiumei did not discriminate against girls at all.
It is true that she did not give birth to a son, but it is also true that she loved her three daughters.
These days, there aren't many families who specifically buy meat for their daughter's birthday. Zhao Xiumei's intentions are evident.
Jiang Tang comforted her, "Sister Zhao, don't worry, we will definitely be able to buy meat."
Even if he couldn't buy it, Jiang Tang would find a way to take out the meat from the spiritual treasure space and find a reason to give it to Zhao Xiumei, as a way of thanking Zhao Xiumei for her enthusiasm over the past two days.
Jiang Tang's mouth looked like it had been blessed, and when it was their turn, there was indeed meat on it.
The butcher pointed to the last piece of fat and said, "You're lucky, this is the last piece of pork hind leg, weighing two pounds. Who wants it?"
Jiang Tang and Zhao Xiumei were standing side by side, and it was impossible to tell who was in front and who was behind.
Zhao Xiumei looked at Jiang Tang somewhat embarrassedly. She really wanted the meat, but she had agreed to bring Jiang Tang to buy the meat, so how could she let Jiang Tang go back empty-handed?
At this time, Jiang Tang pushed Zhao Xiumei very naturally.
"Sister Zhao, this is your meat. What are you standing there for? Hurry up and pay for it."
Zhao Xiumei was still in a daze and was in a trance when she gave the money. Only after she held the meat in her hand did she feel something real. The people around her looked at the last piece of pork in Zhao Xiumei's hand and said enviously, "Why did she buy the last piece of meat?" If they had known, they would have come earlier.
"Xiao Jiang, if you give me all the meat, what will happen to your family?" Zhao Xiumei said worriedly, "How about I give you a pound, and we'll each have half."
"Sister Zhao, there are five people in your family. How can one pound of meat be enough? You can take these two pounds of meat. I don't want any meat. My family ate rabbit meat yesterday, and we still have half a rabbit left. It's enough for the next few days."
"Sister Jiang, you're... you're such a nice person... Thanks to you, I was able to buy some meat. Sanniu doesn't need to be disappointed."
After spending these two days together, Zhao Xiumei really likes Jiang Tang more and more.
If anyone says that the daughter of a capitalist is spoiled and unreasonable in the future, Zhao Xiumei will definitely be the first to disagree.
The two were about to go into the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some other things when they heard a sarcastic sneer from behind them.
"Haha, these days there are still people who don't want meat? I'm really surprised. I think you can't afford meat at all, so you're just pretending to be rich. Do you, a country bumpkin, have meat coupons?"
Jiang Tang felt that this sarcastic voice sounded familiar.
When she turned around, she saw a familiar face, it was Lin Xiuer.
Lin Xiu'er was still accompanied by the young woman on the train, whom Jiang Tang guessed was the heroine Ye Yunshu.
Soon, Jiang Tang's guess was confirmed. This woman was indeed the original heroine Ye Yunshu.
"Xiu'er, it's not worth getting angry with this kind of person. Don't waste time. Go in and take a look at other things."
"Yunshu, you're just too good-tempered! Have you forgotten that she was the one who deliberately seduced Senior Song on the train and embarrassed me?"
Lin Xiu'er remembered the humiliation she suffered on the train, so when she saw Jiang Tang failed to buy pork, she deliberately made sarcastic remarks.
Jiang Tang almost laughed when she heard this. What did she mean by seducing a man? What did she mean by embarrassing her?
It was Lin Xiuer who asked to be humiliated by her. What did it have to do with her?
Zhao Xiumei didn't know what Jiang Tang had against the two young girls, but she couldn't stand it any longer.
"Hey, who are you? How dare you talk like that? Do you know that Xiao Jiang is..."
Jiang Tang grabbed the indignant Zhao Xiumei and said with a joking sneer, "Sister Zhao, forget it. We were unlucky enough to be bitten by a passing mad dog. We can't bite back after being bitten by a dog."
Zhao Xiumei was stunned for a moment, but soon she understood the wisdom in Jiang Tang's words.
She nodded quickly. "Right! We are upright people. We won't bother with mad dogs!"
"Who are you calling a mad dog?" Lin Xiu'er had just walked into the supply and marketing cooperative and heard the conversation between Jiang Tang and Zhao Xiumei. She became angry and turned around to question him.
Zhao Xiumei said cheerfully, "Whoever answers me is a mad dog!"
"you--"
"Xiu'er, forget it. We're new here, so don't cause trouble."
Lin Xiu'er was about to rush over to argue, but Ye Yunshu pulled her back and persuaded her to calm down. During this time, Ye Yunshu looked at Jiang Tang deeply with a very complicated look.
Because she couldn't see the luck value above Jiang Tang's head.
Ever since he acquired the Heavenly Dao System, Ye Yunshu has been successful in everything he does, achieving twice the result with half the effort, and has never failed.
Over the years, the bug of her not being able to see the other person's luck value only happened twice, and one of them was Jiang Tang.
On the train a few days ago, Ye Yunshu had discovered that she could not see Jiang Tang's luck value. Instead, the two children sitting next to Jiang Tang were shining with golden light, with the number "60%" on their little heads.
What does this 60% mean? It is indeed not as good as Fu Sinian's 100%, but Ye Yunshu met an old man with the most outstanding achievements in his life in the capital city where power is at its peak, and his life luck value is only 50%.
Those two dirty-looking young boys actually have a 160% luck value.
Then who is Jiang Tang, their mother?
Doubts had already been planted in Ye Yunshu's heart.
She unexpectedly met Jiang Tang today, and kept calling the system and rescanning Jiang Tang, wanting to see Jiang Tang's life luck value.
However, the system repeatedly reminded her, "System error, numerical extraction failed. System error, numerical extraction failed..."
Who is she?
When Ye Yunshu was looking at Jiang Tang, Jiang Tang was also looking at Ye Yunshu.
Jiang Tang's first impression of Ye Yunshu was that she was beautiful.
After all, she is the heroine of the original novel, grew up in the capital and was favored by everyone, and she also has good luck. There is no doubt that Ye Yunshu is beautiful. She is a gentle girl with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, otherwise she would not have been able to join the art troupe so easily.
In addition, Jiang Tang saw hostility in Ye Yunshu's eyes.
Lin Xiu'er is noisy and speaks harshly, looking like a stupid and vicious rebel, but this Ye Yunshu... is more like a scheming green tea girl who hides her true colors.
The reason why she would always be with Lin Xiu'er must be because Lin Xiu'er's luck value was not low, so she could borrow her luck. However, Ye Yunshu was clearly able to persuade Lin Xiu'er to do the wrong things, but she never said a word.
Once Lin Xiuer's luck is drained, she will become useless and will be abandoned by Ye Yunshu. At that time, the evil things she did before will come back to haunt her and she will suffer the consequences.
Ye Yunshu remained clean throughout the whole process and just watched the fun from the side. If this isn't green tea, what is it?
"Xiao Jiang sister, what are you thinking about? Let's go in and buy something."
"Okay, let's go in."
The two of them went into the supply and marketing cooperative together, and the first item Jiang Tang bought was two washbasins.
Nowadays, newlyweds are accustomed to preparing a washbasin, so for good luck, the word "囍" (囍) is printed on the bottom of the washbasin.
Zhao Xiumei looked at him in surprise, "Little Jiang, don't you have a washbasin at home?"
"Yes, but there is only one washbasin for four people in my family. Chaochao and Yueyue are still children, so I give them each a washbasin. This is more hygienic and they won't get sick." Jiang Tang explained.
As for her and Fu Sinian, they should still share one. If they were to separate, she was afraid that the repressed man would have some thoughts in his mind.
