Chapter 126 Milk Powder from Hong Kong
Zhang Guifang turned around and ran towards the east room.
There is a curtain hanging on the door of the east room, covering it tightly. There must be something hidden inside.
She reached out to lift the curtain, but before she could touch it, she was pushed away.
"You can't enter this room!"
Su Xiaoxiao stretched out her hand to block the door, preventing Zhang Guifang from approaching.
Isn't this obviously a guilty conscience?
Zhang Guifang became even more certain that the fish might be hidden in this room.
"Second Aunt, the fish is not in this room. Look for it somewhere else."
This room belongs to Xu Zhaodi. She just gave birth and is still in confinement, so it is really inconvenient for them to enter and search.
"I think the fish are in this room. Otherwise, why didn't you let us in? Are you hiding something?"
As he was speaking, the sound of a baby crying suddenly came from the room.
Zhang Guifang pushed Su Xiaoxiao away and rushed in.
The fish didn't see anything, but he did see a young woman sitting on the bed holding a baby.
She immediately recognized that this woman was Wang Quezi's young wife.
Little Shitou was frightened by the noise made when Zhang Guifang rushed in, and immediately burst into tears.
Zhang Guifang rolled her eyes and raised her voice, "Great, no wonder you wouldn't let me in. Turns out there's evidence of Su Fusheng's hooliganism hidden in here!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who's being a hooligan?"
Su Xiaoxiao glared at Zhang Guifang. This second aunt really liked to throw dirty water on others.
"I'm not being a hooligan, but how come there's a child in your family? This child couldn't have popped out from a crack in the rock, could he?"
As Zhang Guifang spoke, her eyes swept across the table. Seeing the milk bottles and baby formula on the table, her eyes instantly lit up. "Okay, your second brother is a hooligan. You steal things from the department store. You are exactly like your hooligan father."
Zhang Guifang looked at the things on the table and was convinced in her heart that Su Xiaoxiao had stolen them from the department store. Otherwise, how could her family, being so poor, afford such expensive milk powder?
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless: "Second Aunt, if you want to put the blame on me, you should take a closer look. I asked someone to bring this brand of milk powder back from Hong Kong City. Our city's department stores don't have it at all."
"Just you? And you know anyone in Hong Kong?"
Zhang Guifang obviously didn't believe it. In her eyes, those who came from Hong Kong were all big shots. How could Su Xiaoxiao, a country bumpkin, possibly know them?
Su Xiaoxiao didn't bother to pay attention to her. She turned the milk powder can over and pointed to the eye-catching black words "Gangcheng Dairy" on it and showed it to her: "Second Aunt, please look carefully. It clearly says Gangcheng Dairy..."
Before she could finish her words, Zhang Guifang interrupted her rudely: "Maybe it's new goods from the department store, and you stole them secretly."
After she said this, she happened to see Zhang Dongmei who was squeezed in the crowd to watch the excitement.
"Dongmei, tell me, is this milk powder from your department store?"
Zhang Dongmei was watching the film with great interest when she unexpectedly was called out.
She was stunned for a moment, then smoothed her newly permed hair. "Aunt Guifang, you're right. I just saw this brand of milk powder in the warehouse of a department store."
Su Xiaoxiao was so angry that she laughed, and Zhang Dongmei was trying her best to throw dirty water on her.
"Since Comrade Zhang said he has it, why don't you do me a favor..."
Su Xiaoxiao took out a crumpled remittance voucher from her bag and said, "Could you please bring me two more cans tomorrow? We're running out of milk powder at home."
She deliberately shook the remittance coupons in her hand, "If I remember correctly, the internal price of this milk powder is 8.5 yuan a can."
As she spoke, she took out two more Great Unity coupons and stuffed them into Zhang Dongmei's hands along with the overseas Chinese remittance coupons. "If anyone needs milk powder, please ask Comrade Zhang to bring it to you."
Su Xiaoxiao's shout immediately attracted the villagers who were watching the fun to gather around.
Several families who had just given birth joined in the fun: "Comrade Zhang, I want some milk powder too. Could you bring me a couple of cans?"
"My wife just gave birth and has no milk, so please bring me a can too."
Everyone surrounded Zhang Dongmei and talked at once. The lotion on her face was almost washed off by sweat.
Needless to say, there is no milk powder in the department stores in this port city. Even if there is milk powder, it is more scarce than gold. How can she buy it?
"This...this milk powder is out of stock recently. We have to wait..."
Zhang Dongmei lied stubbornly, but as soon as she finished speaking, Su Xiaoxiao spoke up: "Didn't Comrade Zhang just say that he saw that there was stock in the warehouse? Why are you saying there is no stock now? Are you kidding us?"
"Yeah, you're saying yes and no. Are you making fun of us?"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her with a smile: "Comrade Zhang, what is going on?"
Zhang Dongmei's expression changed again and again, and she finally bit her lower lip and said, "I'm sorry, I must have remembered it wrongly. The department store is indeed out of milk powder recently."
Someone among the onlookers scoffed, "You liar."
The fool watching from the wall slapped his thigh and said, "I can't even remember this. How come Sister Zhang's brain is not even as good as my family's wealth!"
What was this brat saying? He actually said she was worse than a pig?
Amid the laughter of the crowd, Zhang Dongmei squeezed out of the crowd with a gloomy face.
This Zhang Dongmei is so useless!
Zhang Guifang was so disappointed that she could only turn her attention to Xu Zhaodi again: "Even if the milk powder wasn't stolen from the department store, this bastard was still Su Fusheng's hooligan..."
She suddenly snatched the child from Xu Zhaodi's arms and held it up for everyone to see: "Everyone, take a good look. This Xu Zhaodi has no status and lives in the Su family, and now she has even given birth to a child. What else can she do but act like a hooligan?"
"You're talking nonsense! This child isn't Brother Fusheng's at all!"
Xu Zhaodi rushed forward to take the child back, but found nothing.
Seeing how nervous she was, Zhang Guifang confirmed her thoughts: "I heard that the city hospital can do blood tests. As long as we test the child's blood type, we can confirm who the child's biological father is."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped hard in the face: "You are talking nonsense. When I met Brother Fusheng, I was already several months pregnant. Many people in the village know about this and can prove it for me!"
Zhang Guifang looked up and didn't expect that the person who hit her was the always cowardly Xu Zhaodi.
"You're crazy, girl!"
She was about to rush forward, but Su Xiaoxiao saw that the child in her arms was about to fall, so she hurried forward and snatched the child back.
Her fingers hooked onto something, and a bundle of things tightly wrapped in a handkerchief fell out of Zhang Guifang's pocket.
The handkerchief fell open, and the contents scattered all over the ground like flowers scattered by a fairy. It turned out to be a handful of national food coupons.
"Okay, Second Aunt, you're accusing me of speculation, but I think you're the one who's actually speculating. Otherwise, where would you get all those national food coupons?"
