Chapter 458: It’s outrageous!
With a click, the light in the room came on. When they saw that the person sitting there was Liu Cuilan, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, what are you doing sitting here in the middle of the night? You scared us."
Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but chirp softly.
Who would understand? It was pitch black in the middle of the night. When they turned around, they saw someone sitting upright in the darkness, not saying a word. They were considered brave if they didn't pee their pants in fear.
"You still remember it's late at night? What time is it now? We've searched almost the entire village, and you three are so..."
Just as he said this, Su Jianwu burped at an inopportune time.
Su Xiaoxiao: “…”
Su Jianwen: “…”
Is this some idiot hired by the monkey?
Didn’t you see that their mother was scolding someone?
Su Jianwu also felt aggrieved. There was nothing he could do because the food tonight was so delicious. Besides, it was Zhang Jun who treated him, so of course he had to eat his fill.
Liu Cuilan's face darkened. "Okay, you didn't come back so late at night because you went out to eat alone. We were so worried at home. You three are so heartless..."
As she said that, she stood up and started looking for something everywhere.
Su Xiaoxiao silently took a step back. She knew without thinking that her mother was looking for the broom.
"Well, Mom is not what you think. Don't rush into it."
Su Jianwu hurriedly explained: "Mom, you don't know that we were almost..."
As soon as I said this, I felt someone kick my calf.
Turning his head to see that it was Su Jianwen, he complained: "Fourth brother, why did you kick me?"
Su Jianwen was so disappointed with his son. He thought, "This idiot, you can't tell your mother the truth about this tonight and make her worry for nothing."
Su Xiaoxiao exchanged glances with Su Jianwen and quickly interrupted, "Mom, someone actually approached me tonight about a deal to buy some goods from our department store. It took a while to finalize the details, but I can get a 200 yuan commission once this is done."
"Two hundred?"
Liu Cuilan's eyes widened. Her daughter earned 200 yuan in just a short time outside. It would take them several months of hard work in the cafeteria to earn that much.
As expected of her daughter, she is very capable.
"By the way, besides this matter, Mom, I have another happy news to tell you."
At this point, Su Xiaoxiao reached into her bag and took out a paper roll and handed it over: "Mom, open it and take a look."
Liu Cuilan opened the scroll and saw the contents clearly. Her pupils trembled. "Third Brother, is this true? Not only were you selected as the first salesperson, but you also received the Outstanding Contribution Award?"
She was so excited that she didn't know what to say. She felt that her ancestral grave was really going to be filled with smoke this time. Look at how capable her daughter is.
"More than that?"
Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile, took out thirty yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into Liu Cuilan's hand: "My boss also gave me a thirty yuan bonus. Mom, take this money and buy two new sets of clothes later."
Liu Cuilan quickly stuffed the money back and said, "Mom is old, why would she wear new clothes? You young people should dress beautifully."
"Mom, just take it if I tell you to. I have money, and this is a gift to you."
"Okay, Mom will give it to you. I'll save this money for your marriage."
Liu Cuilan smiled so happily. No, she had to go out and show off this good thing.
Su Xiaoxiao remembered the food she packed and hurriedly said, "Mom, have you seen the food I packed at the state-owned restaurant?"
"I see. I've put it in the pot for you in the kitchen. It will be delicious now."
When Liu Cuilan was reminded, she immediately remembered that there was food for three people in the pot.
"Mom, why don't you eat? When we're not around, you can eat whatever delicious food you want, okay?"
Many parents of this generation are like this. They are willing to give up food and clothes and leave everything to their children.
"We're old, why should we eat so well? Isn't that a complete waste?"
Su Xiaoxiao sighed. Alas, her mother was a typical parent of this era. It would take a long time to change her mindset.
"Hurry up and take it out to eat. I'm going out for a while."
Just as she thought of this, she heard Liu Cuilan suddenly say.
"It's so late, what are you doing, Mom?"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the sky. Normally, her mother would be getting ready for bed at this time, so why was she going out now?
Before I could finish my words, I realized that my mother had already hurried out: "Nothing, I'm going to the village to chat with your aunts, and I'll be back soon."
After saying that, he hurried out, as if he was afraid that she would stop him.
Su Xiaoxiao: “…”
Are you eager to show off?
The next morning, Su Xiaoxiao rode her bicycle to work. As soon as she stepped out of the house, she was surrounded by the villagers.
"Xiaoxiao, are you going to work? I heard you got two certificates of merit yesterday, and a 300 yuan bonus. Is that true?"
"I heard that you're a big boss in the department store now, and even the general manager has to ask for your opinion on everything?"
"Not only that, I heard you even closed a big deal yesterday. The other party wanted to give you a 2,000 yuan kickback, but you refused it."
Su Xiaoxiao: “…”
This rumor is just too outrageous, isn't it? It's just outrageous, it's outrageous to the extreme.
When did she get a 300 yuan bonus? When did the general manager have to ask her opinion on everything?
How does mom show off to others?
How should she answer this? Tell the truth?
But where does she get so much money?
If I say no, I’m afraid my mother will be embarrassed.
Just when I was struggling with this, Liu Cuilan came out from the yard.
Seeing her three daughters being surrounded like monkeys, she curled her lips and said, "What are you all doing here so early in the morning? Go do what you need to do and don't delay my daughter from work. She's the manager of a department store now and she has to set a good example for the employees."
After hearing what she said, the group could only reluctantly disperse.
I thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly, when Su Xiaoxiao got off work in the evening, she saw a large group of people gathered at her door again.
"Uncles, aunts, what are you doing?"
It's time to eat, but they all don't go home to eat. It seems like she is like a demon seeing Tang Monk's meat.
Su Xiaoxiao was wondering what this group of people were planning to do when an older woman came up to her.
"Look at you, Miss Su. You've become more and more beautiful after not seeing you for so many years."
The lady's attitude was very warm, but Su Xiaoxiao thought for a long time and couldn't remember who this person was.
I could only ask awkwardly, "Auntie, who are you?"
"Look at you, little girl. You are so forgetful. I am your second uncle's cousin. I even held you in my arms when you were a child."
