Su Xinmi was shocked by Liu Xiaoxi's words. Is this person so shameless?
Su Xinmu sneered: "Liu Xiaoxi, who said I owed you a hundred dollars? That's the hundred dollars you owe me. You didn't even succeed in registering for me."
"Besides, you are a beggar, asking me for this and that. What do you think I can give you?"
"I haven't settled the score with you yet. How dare you come to me with such a thick skin?"
Liu Xiaoxi widened her eyes in surprise. She had never expected that Su Xinmu would become so sharp-tongued and difficult to deal with. She was not fooled by him like before.
Didn't her mother say that as long as Su Xinmi was here, she would be fine? Why didn't anyone tell her that Su Xinmi had become different?
What went wrong? She remembered that she was the same the last time she went to her house.
Regardless of whether Liu Xiaoxi wanted to agree or not, Su Xinmu had already gone ahead to ask for leave from the village chief.
The village chief quickly gave her a certificate and looked at her with a kind look, "Su Zhiqing, I heard that the pigs' appetites have improved in the past few days and they are eating more."
"I can see it's growing meat. I heard from Mr. Shen that it's because you added some herbs to the pigs that their appetite has improved so much."
Su Xinmi nodded guiltily. That day, she was seen by Shen Laoer after feeding the pigs.
Shen Laoer is in charge of the pig shed. He is usually responsible for cleaning and tidying up, as well as guarding the pigsty.
Su Xin couldn't understand why the pig's appetite had improved so much, so she lied to Shen Lao Er and said the spiritual spring water was a herbal medicine.
The village chief laughed and said, "Thank you kids for raising the pigs so well."
If someone else were here, they would definitely refute the village chief, saying that collecting pig grass is such hard work.
Su Xinmi took the letter of introduction and left, preparing to buy some things at the market the next day.
The next morning, Su Xinmi got up early and went to the village entrance to catch the ox cart to the town.
Su Xinmu went to the post office to mail letters first. She wrote two letters last night, one to her cousin and one to her uncle.
She wanted to send something to them, but she didn't dare to give anything. She didn't have time to do anything now. After her house was built, she could make something and send it to them.
Su Xinmo paid the money and prepared to leave when she was stopped by the staff.
"Hey, comrade, there's a package for you."
The staff recognized Su Xinmo, who was so beautiful and polite.
Su Xinmo took the package and put it into the backpack, covered it with a cloth, and actually entered the space.
This was probably sent by my uncle again. Next time I must tell him not to send it anymore.
Su Xinmi's main purpose for going out today was certainly not to buy things; she had to go to the black market to buy some things.
She had a lot of rice in her shop, but she didn't dare to take it out to sell, so she went to the narrow alley to buy some groceries.
She mixed it with the rice in her own space, and then she dressed herself up. Now no one would treat her as a little girl.
A skinny figure stood in front of her, "Comrade, do you have any food?" Her voice was a little hoarse and sad, as if she was weak because she had not eaten a full meal for a long time.
"Yes, how much do you want?" When Su Xinmi saw the old man like this, she thought of her own grandparents. She didn't know how they were doing. They had been in the countryside for several years. Her parents must have sent some things over there.
But her parents were probably afraid of involving her, so they never wanted her to know, let alone get involved.
The old woman moved slowly. She trembled as she pulled Su Xinmi's hand, revealing the jade bracelet on her hand.
After seeing this, Su Xinmo naturally understood what was going on. She probably had no money and was having a hard time, so she had no choice but to take the risk and come here.
Su Xinmi held the old woman's skinny hand and nodded. The old woman then breathed a sigh of relief, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes.
Su Xinmu whispered, "The food here is not good. I'll give you the one in your hand. I also have some eggs. You can wait for me at the entrance of the alley."
The old man nodded excitedly, as if he had never expected that a bracelet could be exchanged for so many things.
The old man gave the bracelet to Su Xinmo and left with the food.
Su Xinmi didn't leave the alley and bought some more things, pork, vermicelli, cabbage...
These were bought back for the banquet, and then the eggs laid by the hens were taken out from the space.
Some time ago, Su Xinmo discovered that the hen in the space had given birth to a group of chicks.
This was something Su Xinmi had not expected. The little lamb had grown a lot, and Su Xinmi wanted to eat mutton. Unfortunately, there was only one lamb.
After reaching the alley entrance and giving the things to the old man, Su Xinmi went to buy some fruit candies. These things can sometimes satisfy one’s sweet taste, and most importantly, there are children.
I thought about buying some cookies, mung bean cakes, cigarettes and wine.
Cigarettes and alcohol were difficult to buy, mainly because they were expensive and required tickets. Fortunately, Su Xin searched for a long time and finally found the tickets.
After wandering around for a while, Su Xin felt a little hungry and wanted to go to the state-owned hotel to eat something.
Then they went to the state-owned hotel and ordered a plate of twice-cooked pork, shredded pork with green peppers, and a bowl of dumplings.
I just sat there and waited quietly, and soon there was a shout from the other side.
"Re-cooked pork, shredded pork with green peppers, and dumplings are ready."
Su Xinmu got up to serve the food. The service attitude at that time was not as good as in later generations. She had to serve the food she ordered by herself after it was ready.
However, Su Xinmi hadn’t eaten at a state-owned hotel for a long time, and the food was delicious.
A jeep drove by, and Gu Baijian saw Su Xinmo with his sharp eyes.
"Brother Jiang, it's Su the educated youth."
Jiang Qiandu looked at the little girl eating her meal with a look of enjoyment on her face, as if she was burned by the dumplings.
She spit out the burned tip of her tongue and blew on it a few times before she ate contentedly with her eyes narrowed.
Jiang Qiandu couldn't help but smile at the look on his face, and Gu Baijian took a look from the rearview mirror.
If I saw it correctly just now, it was Brother Jiang who laughed. Brother Jiang hasn't laughed so easily for a long time.
In the past, they always sneered and laughed at them. When had they ever seen him smile so gently?
"Stop."
Jiang Qiandu called out to Gu Baijian directly.
Gu Baijian obediently parked the car on the side of the road and saw his brother Jiang quietly watching Su Zhiqing eat.
Hey, what does Brother Jiang mean to Su Zhiqing? Does he like Su Zhiqing?
It is also possible because Su Zhiqing is so beautiful.
Gu Baijian secretly observed Jiang Qiandu's expression again, trying to see something in his eyes.
Then he met his brother Jiang's deep eyes and coughed, "Brother Jiang, do you want to eat anything?"
Jiang Qiandu: "No need."
Su Xinmi finished eating the dumplings in the end, and packed up the rest to take home. As soon as she walked out the door, she saw Jiang Qiandu coming towards her.
Then he said nothing and went to pick up her backpack. Su Xinmu was startled, "What are you doing?"
Jiang Qiandu was amused by her reaction, "I'll give you a ride."
Gu Baijian had already gotten off the car. "Su Zhiqing, you want to go back to the village? Let's go. It's convenient for us now."
Gu Baijian wondered in his heart whether Brother Jiang had deliberately stopped the car to wait for Su Zhiqing.
There must be something between them. It is impossible that they don't know each other.
