Chapter 55 Zhou Cheng is coming
"You dare to steal my daughter's things? Are you tired of living?"
The woman's shrill voice echoed throughout the yard.
When Su Xiaoxiao pushed the door open, she saw a middle-aged woman in her forties standing at the gate of the courtyard with her hands on her waist, cursing.
She recognized who this person was at a glance. It was Zhang Dongmei's biological mother, Li Huilan.
Seeing her come out, Li Huilan pinched her waist and rushed forward angrily: "You stupid girl, you are so rebellious. How dare you steal our Dongmei's things? Return them to me immediately."
Zhang Dongmei hid behind Li Huilan, timidly and without any of her usual arrogance.
Su Xiaoxiao frowned: "Aunt Li, you are wrong to say that. This bicycle was clearly lost to me by Zhang Dongmei."
"How can you take a kid's joke seriously? Return the bike immediately, or I'll stay at your house for the rest of the day."
Li Huilan immediately crossed her arms over her chest, looking like a rogue.
"Tsk, you're already twenty and still a kid?"
Liu Cuilan heard this as soon as she entered the courtyard and immediately joined the battle.
"Liu Cuilan, tell your daughter to return the bicycle to us immediately, or I will never forgive you."
When Li Huifang saw her come in, she was not at all nervous and spoke in a threatening manner.
"What do you mean your bike? My daughter and your daughter made a bet that day, and there were so many people watching, and Aunt Liu was a witness."
With her mother's support, Su Xiaoxiao quickly took out the letter of guarantee from her bag.
She always carries the letter of guarantee with her for fear that Zhang Dongmei would default on her debt.
"So what? It's just a kid's joke, don't take it seriously."
Li Huifang snorted righteously. Seeing the bicycle leaning against the wall, she glared at Zhang Dongmei and said, "Go, push your bicycle back."
Zhang Dongmei, relying on her mother's presence, felt a little emboldened. Just as she was about to walk over and push her bicycle, Su Xiaoxiao stopped her: "You want to take the bicycle back? Fine. But according to our agreement, whoever defaults on their debt will take off all their clothes and kowtow to the other person to apologize."
Upon hearing this, Li Huifang's face turned green.
If the news of an unmarried girl stripping naked to apologize were to get out, her daughter Dongmei's reputation would be ruined.
Her daughter will be the battalion commander's wife in the future, how could she have such a stain?
"You stupid girl, how could you be so vicious? Our Dongmei is an innocent girl. If she were to take off her clothes and kneel down, wouldn't her reputation be ruined?"
"I'm vicious?"
Su Xiaoxiao was a little amused: "If I remember correctly, this vicious idea was proposed by your Dongmei herself."
"I'm putting my word out there today. Either you strip naked and kowtow to me as we agreed, or you accept defeat."
"you……"
Seeing that further arguing would not get the bicycle back, Li Huilan reached out and twisted Zhang Dongmei's ear fiercely: "You damned girl, you prodigal son, how can you even bet something as valuable as a bicycle?"
Zhang Dongmei wailed and covered her ears: "Mom, please be gentle, my ears are going to fall off."
Li Huifang dragged the person away cursing, and before leaving she glared at Su Xiaoxiao fiercely.
When Xu Zhaodi saw someone leaving the house, she walked over and slammed the door shut. The loud noise startled Zhang Dongmei.
Su Xiaoxiao was too lazy to bother with such people. She hurried to her room and took out a flashlight. She waved it in front of them like a treasure: "Look, what is this? I bought it at the department store when I came back."
Liu Cuilan saw what she was holding and frowned: "Where did you get the industrial ticket?"
She knew that her daughter had made some money selling mugwort recently, but industrial tickets were difficult to get.
Even her eldest and second child would take several months to get one.
Su Xiaoxiao had forgotten about this and made up a story: "The leader of the meat processing plant gave it to me last time."
Liu Cuilan finally felt relieved. Recently, the third brother always brought back some rare things, and she was really worried that her daughter would not learn her lesson and go astray.
After figuring out where the thing came from, Liu Cuilan carefully took the flashlight from her hand and looked at it again and again.
Su Xiaoxiao stood beside her and explained to her: "Mom, look, push this up and the flashlight will light up."
In order not to arouse suspicion, Su Xiaoxiao specially bought an old-fashioned flashlight with a large battery.
Seeing her close and open the door again, Liu Cuilan hurriedly slapped Su Xiaoxiao's hand away with a distressed look on her face: "Don't open it, it wastes more electricity."
She couldn't let go and touched it again and again, and couldn't help but sigh: "This thing is really good, much brighter than candles and oil lamps, no wonder people are rushing to buy it."
Su Xiaoxiao originally wanted to take out the other two, but now seeing her mother's ignorant look, she couldn't bear to watch it.
I was afraid of scaring her, so I decided to wait and see.
Time flies and it’s already a week later, and soon it’s the day for the interview at the department store.
Su Xiaoxiao rode her bicycle and prepared to go to the city early in the morning.
As soon as he got on his bicycle, Liu Cuilan chased him out with an aluminum lunch box: "Third brother, take this for lunch, eating out is too expensive."
Su Xiaoxiao felt warm in her heart because of her mother's kindness. She reached out to take the lunch box and put it in her bag.
He exerted force with his legs and pedaled the bike away.
When I was halfway there, I happened to meet a bus going to the city.
She turned her head and was startled by Zhang Dongmei, who was leaning against the glass with her face almost squeezed into a pancake.
Who are you trying to scare to death by doing this so early in the morning?
Zhang Dongmei stared at her with resentful eyes.
This damn girl not only caused her to lose her bicycle, but also got her beaten up by her mother when she got home.
The thought of this made her teeth itch with hatred, but she could do nothing about it.
Su Xiaoxiao proudly gave her the middle finger through the glass.
Zhang Dongmei didn't understand what she meant, but she felt inexplicably unhappy.
Looking at her smug face, Zhang Dongmei gritted her teeth in hatred.
Why is that dead girl so proud?
Thinking that her battalion commander boyfriend was coming to see her today, her mood instantly improved a lot.
Then I will make that damn girl Su Xiaoxiao jealous to death.
Zhou Cheng heard that she had an interview today, so he took a train all night to see her.
When the time comes, she must show off in front of that damn girl Su Xiaoxiao.
Even if she passed the exam and became a salesperson in a department store, so what? She would still be a peasant from the countryside.
She will be the battalion commander's wife in the future.
Thinking of this, Zhang Dongmei snorted arrogantly and looked away.
As soon as she turned her head, she met a pair of round black eyes, and her face immediately turned dark.
Who the hell brings two live chickens on a bus? And the most important thing is that the chickens even pooped on her brand new little leather shoes.
Zhou Cheng took a train all night and finally arrived at the agreed department store before nine in the morning.
He nervously adjusted his military uniform and used his height advantage to look into the crowd.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a familiar slim figure out of the corner of his eye.
Suddenly he was delighted and walked towards the figure.
There were too many people and he was big, so he finally squeezed next to Su Xiaoxiao. Just as he was about to call her, a surprised voice suddenly came from the side.
