064 Spitting Ivory
Su Xiaoli contacted Zhang Yu's tobacco shop, but the man with the scar on his face said in a nasal voice that he had left two days ago.
But no contact information was left.
Sure enough, cool.
Su Xiaoli was speechless.
Unable to wait for Zhang Yu, she had to go to see Guo Hongxia first.
Everything was going smoothly with the stall in the market, but the public relations with the supply and marketing cooperative was quite difficult. However, looking at Guo Hongxia's expression, she seemed to want to give it another try.
Okay, it seems we have to wait a while on this end. Maybe Sister Hongxia can really chew this tough bone.
Waiting is not her style. There is still a lot to do.
For example: industrial and commercial registration.
Well, the industrial and commercial registration will have to wait until Gu Feihan has all the information.
For example: review.
This needs to be done, and done now.
The diligent student Su Xiaoli locked herself in the room and never left her books.
Good grades and good business must be maintained.
The question of whether to save the older or younger one does not exist for Dr. Su.
We are all adults now, and we must have both.
Based on Dr. Su’s experience in his previous life, teachers will be relatively tolerant of the various “evil deeds” of the top students.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the performance continues to reach new heights.
Su Xiaoli arrogantly thought of a solution that was not a solution - get good grades, and then ask the school to let her study at home for a while, and then she would do it after the business was on track! She planned to put it into practice after the first exam after school started.
We’ll talk about whether it works or not later. Anyway, beautiful women are not afraid of boiling water.
Just grind it raw.
After finishing her dinner and digesting the food, Su Xiaoli picked up her textbook again and decided to do a few more questions.
School starts tomorrow, so it’s better to sharpen your sword before the battle. Even if it doesn’t shine, it will still shine.
The courtyard door was pushed open again with a "clang". Su Xiaoli raised her eyelids through the window.
oh.
Chang Feng'e.
With her eldest baby son Su Ziqiang.
This time, Chang Feng'e did not yell for money like last time, but went straight to Grandma Su's room.
Before I could say anything, the free tears started falling.
"Mom - Zhang Hongbing was arrested by the police! Oh - my poor niece, your life is so miserable - your man went to jail before you even got married -"
Su Xiaoli took a sip of water but choked again.
Why are you here to mourn? What man? Your man just went to jail! Isn't this part over? Why are you here to make trouble now?
Thirteen-year-old Su Ziqiang looked at a loss.
He had never been involved in his mother's affairs, but today he was suddenly dragged here by his own mother as a "hostage", and he felt quite uncomfortable.
Grandma Su pulled her eldest grandson into her arms and said, "Second daughter-in-law, can you please behave like a mother in front of your son?"
Chang Feng'e wiped away the tears that were forced out from the corners of her eyes.
"Mom, I'm just worried about Xiao Li. What do you think we should do?"
"What should we do? Tell me, what should we do?" Grandma Su glanced at her unhappily.
Chang Feng'e rushed over to Grandma Su.
"Mom, I'd say we can't marry into his family anymore. That Zhang Hongbing is a shady guy. He's said to be having an affair with the Sun family's daughter-in-law again!"
Chang Feng'e's news was not delayed at all.
Grandma Su's face was dark. "What are you talking about in front of the child? Ziqiang is still here, so watch your mouth!"
Then, she turned to Su Ziqiang and said, "Qiangzi, good boy, don't listen to your mother's nonsense. That's all nonsense made up by adults."
Chang Feng'e felt a little embarrassed. Why was it different from what she expected?
Except for her, everyone in the family was calm and not shocked at all.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Mom, we can't marry into a family like that. How about this, you give me 800 yuan and I'll go and return the betrothal gift to them first."
Su Lanying ran away with the money, and the wool came from the sheep, so she could only ask her stingy mother-in-law for it.
She brought her son here today specifically because she hoped that Grandma Su would give her the money back no matter what.
Once the money is in her hands, it won't be easy to get her to take it out.
Hearing Chang Feng'e nagging about these trivial matters endlessly, Su Xiaoli, who was already a little angry while reviewing her lessons, stood up suddenly.
Damn it.
I give you face, right?
This was too much to bear. She couldn't stand this aunt anymore! Su Xiaoli walked into her grandmother's room and refused to even glance at Chang Feng'e.
It's better to eat salty radishes and worry less. When will this end?
Su Xiaoli raised her eyebrows and said coldly: "Second Aunt, why are you so anxious? The money has already been returned to them."
"Returned?! To whom did you return it? When did you return it?" Chang Feng'e asked three questions in a row.
"Of course I gave it to the police uncle and asked him to help me pay it back." Su Xiaoli said lightly.
police?
Chang Feng'e's face changed in shock. When did this girl become so close to the police? And how did the money slip away without ever passing through her hands? Chang Feng'e was completely confused.
No matter how you play this card, you can never catch up with the one who cuts the winning hand!
"Second Aunt, please don't get involved. The police will handle this impartially. No one who should be punished will be able to escape!"
Chang Feng'e was speechless and so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth.
Her eyes rolled around, but she hadn't yet mentioned the main purpose of her coming here today.
"Xiao Li, I heard that your peanuts are selling well. What are you thinking, kid? Why let an outsider look after the stall? What if she runs away with your money? What will you do?"
The "outsider" she referred to was naturally Guo Hongxia.
What a heartless person! He doesn't favor his relatives at all when it comes to making money.
"Second Aunt, the way you say that makes it sound like your family members won't run away with the money?" Su Xiaoli said in a cold and sarcastic voice.
Oh, you are in such a hurry, just a few pieces of silver.
Is Chang Feng'e trying to rob me openly? "Tell me, kid, I'm doing this for your own good. Xiao Li, we are a family and we don't have to talk behind each other's backs. You can't turn your elbow outward."
Chang Feng'e felt that she had the courage to do so.
"Come on, Second Aunt, I'm telling you, don't even think about getting involved in the peanut business! You can't cheat me of my money!"
Su Xiaoli didn't even want to laugh anymore.
Who gave you the face to spit out ivory so brazenly? "Sister Li, don't talk about my mother like that." Su Ziqiang, who had just pursed his lips, spoke.
Seeing Su Xiaoli glaring at him, the young man's momentum suddenly weakened.
"My mom, she didn't mean that..."
Su Ziqiang was a young man, so naturally he couldn't stand others talking about his own mother like that, let alone his cousin who he had always been close to.
After listening to this long string of stories, Su Ziqiang gradually came to his senses.
He has his own judgment of right and wrong, and his mother's thoughts are indeed not upright.
But what my cousin said was a bit too harsh.
Why do you seem so jealous when you meet your enemy?
Today's cousin made him feel strange, not like the person he knew at all.
Su Xiaoli turned her face away, not wanting to argue with the child who had not grown up yet.
With such a mother who stirs up trouble out of nothing, it’s hard to say whether my little cousin has grown up as a child.
She doesn't have the time to teach her little cousin how to behave.
