Chapter 269: Meeting an Old Friend Again
Jiang Xiaoxiao sent people in to buy some pork, which required a ticket.
Song Moting went to buy it, he had the ticket on him.
Jiang Xiaoxiao thought that when she returned to the Jin family, she could take the opportunity to put some vegetables produced in her own space in the basket.
I was just thinking about what dish to cook later. I decided to buy a chicken and give Jia Shu some nourishment tomorrow. There are no living creatures in my own space.
That’s not right. I don’t think I have ever tried whether space can support living things.
Should I give it a try?
But it’s not easy to buy live animals. If you really can’t find a way, just ask Jin Dachuan. After all, Jin Dachuan is a local tyrant, so he must know where to get chickens!
It would be best if there were some chicks.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was lost in thought, and was concentrating fully on picking the vegetables.
The salesperson had a look of disgust on his face. It didn't look like this girl was short of money, so why was she so stingy when buying things?
These are all the dishes I have, how can I pick out the best?
You are just pretending to take advantage of others.
She has seen it many times. Many aunties and grandmas who buy vegetables would tear off the leaves of the vegetables when she is not paying attention, and only pick the tender ones. Some are even more discerning and would peel off only the heart of a cabbage. She has to keep a close eye on this girl to prevent her from losing her bonus.
It really wasn't the salesperson's intention. He was an experienced person and was scared.
Just at this moment.
A little girl took advantage of the salesperson's inattention, quietly picked up the vegetable leaves on the ground, stuffed them into her basket, and turned to run away.
Being grabbed by someone.
"It's you again! You little bitch, you are lawless and come here to steal vegetables every day. Your daughter is like her mother. Your mother is a thief, and your daughter is also a thief. Come on! Follow me to meet the leader."
Jiang Xiaoxiao was stunned. Why did he talk like that?
Besides, the vegetable leaves on the ground are meant to be thrown away anyway, so how can this be considered stealing?
Judging from the child's appearance, he was about five or six years old, thin and small, with yellow hair, a pale face, and clothes covered with patches.
You can tell from the looks of it that the child’s family must be very poor.
There is nothing we can do about it when people pick up vegetable leaves.
Such a young child knows how to take care of the family. It can be said that children from poor families have to grow up early.
The child was obviously frightened and began to tremble all over.
Holding the basket tightly in his hand, he said, "Auntie, I... didn't steal. I picked up the unwanted things on the ground. I saw you throwing them away every day, so I wanted to pick some up and take them back. I really didn't steal! I'm not a thief! I'm not!"
But the salesperson persisted.
"You said you didn't steal? I tell you, even if these vegetable leaves were thrown on the ground without our permission, it was stealing. Your mother was not clean, because she was arrested and imprisoned for stealing cotton cloth from the factory. You are the same. What kind of mother is what kind of child is.
You are a family of thieves. If I say you stole, you stole! And you are still trying to make excuses!"
Grabbing the child's wrist tightly.
The force was so strong that it seemed as if he was going to kill the child.
The people around couldn't help but watch.
"Da Liu, just let the child go. We see this child all the time. She is pitiful. You don't want the vegetable leaves on the ground anyway, so just let her go!"
Some people looked at the child with pity.
Others don't understand what's going on here either.
The salesperson curled his lips and said, "You all don't know that this child's mother works in the printing and dyeing workshop of our textile factory. Last year, she was caught by the security department for stealing cloth and cotton from the workshop. She was sentenced to one year in prison and will be released soon this year.
This kid has come to our place to steal things more than once. Today he steals cabbage leaves, tomorrow he steals other things. We can’t let this bad habit get to him. I’m doing this for everyone’s good, after all, we all live in the same dormitory! If this kid gets addicted to it, we’ll all be the ones to suffer.”
The little girl burst into tears and bit her lips tightly. This was not the first time that she was accused of being a thief and her mother was also implicated.
"My mother didn't steal. She was wrongly accused. My mother was wrongly accused."
The child cried out in grievance.
Unfortunately, almost no one in the crowd heard this sound.
"You are still crying out for injustice, the thief crying catch thief! Everyone knows that your mother was caught by the security department, and you are still accusing yourself of this! Look at how old you are, you started learning to steal at the age of five, and when you grow up to fifteen, you will be in trouble.
I'm telling you, I'm doing this for your own good. No matter what your mother calls you, I'm helping your parents discipline you so that you won't become a rubbish that harms society in the future. Come on, follow me to the security department. I'll have to teach you a lesson."
The child staggered and almost fell down because of the pull of the salesperson.
But Jiang Xiaoxiao grabbed the person and carefully helped the child up.
"Comrade, don't be so kind. This child has refused to change despite repeated admonitions. I have not wronged her. This is not the first time. If we don't teach her a lesson, she will really become a thief in the future, and then she will endanger society!"
The salesperson looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao and thought she was too young.
This is a kind intention.
Hurry to advise.
The child held Jiang Xiaoxiao's hand tightly.
"Sister, I didn't. I'm not a thief. I really am not."
Jiang Xiaoxiao squatted down, "What's your name? Little sister!"
"Sister, my name is Bai Yiyi."
Jiang Xiaoxiao was shocked, Bai Yiyi.
Look carefully at the child's eyes and eyebrows.
Sure enough, there was a hint of familiarity in his facial features.
Bai Yiyi!
It’s really Bai Yiyi.
Textile factory!
Mother was sentenced to five years in prison for theft!
They all really fit the description.
"Comrade, it's not a big deal for this child to pick up vegetable leaves. Although you didn't get my permission, the leaves still have to be thrown away. The child is so young, there's no need to scare her like this. As long as you tell the child well, I believe she won't pick them up again.
Forget about the Security Department!"
Bai Yiyi nodded, "Auntie, I was wrong, I really didn't know that we can't pick up the leaves on the ground. I just saw aunties picking up leaves every day, and you never told me, so I thought it was okay to pick up leaves.
I won’t pick it up next time.”
The salesperson's face darkened. "What auntie? What nonsense are you talking about? How can you talk nonsense like that? Who asked me to pick up vegetable leaves? I didn't ask you to do that. I'm telling you that you are a bad boy at such a young age. Not only do you steal things, you also learn to lie. You will definitely not be a good person when you grow up."
The one who comes to pick up vegetable leaves every day is his relative. The salesperson deliberately breaks off a lot of good leaves from the vegetable leaves every day just to make things convenient for his family. Now that Bai Yiyi said this, if the manager finds out, he will be in trouble.
Thinking of this, the salesperson immediately got angry.
I have to put a big hat on Bai Yiyi's head.
If she didn't say that Bai Yiyi was lying at this time, people would find out that it was her problem.
Jiang Xiaoxiao could see the panic in the salesperson's eyes.
It seems that Bai Yiyi did not lie.
