Chapter 85 Is it embarrassing?
“The Song family has a little brother, buy some dry candy!”
"I said I wanted to buy some floral fabrics. These two pieces look good."
"Sugar, buy some candy. The last time I went there, Brother Dekui said the sugar buns were delicious!"
Several people crowded into Boss Mu's grocery store, picking out things to take to the Song family.
In the back compartment, Mrs. Cui rolled her eyes and cursed in a low voice: "Shameless bitch, hooking up with men everywhere."
Boss Mu, who was serving her acorn tofu, said with a sullen face, "Mrs. Cui, what you said is irrational! Women in Suijin Town are precious. Have you seen anyone flirting with men?"
After the tragedy, there were very few women left in Suijin Town, and all of them were well-off women with families.
Mrs. Cui spitted and pointed at the soldiers outside and whispered, "Didn't you hear those men were going to the Song family? What's the point of a grown-up girl who's not married yet inviting men home every day?"
Boss Mu squinted at her and said, "Everyone has friends. The Song family's young master drinks with your uncle, so you don't allow other people to drink at home?
Why, just because you have one in your family, do you think others are like that too?"
Song Liyun was a loyal girl. Even though she knew that the acorn tofu was bought by the Xue family, she still asked him to resell it, and even took the initiative to reduce the price and charge a penny less.
I don't know where I heard about the nursing home a few days ago, but I took the initiative to send food to those lonely elderly people.
He also said that he would send a pot of acorn tofu every two days.
People are all made of flesh and blood. She had just arrived in Suijin Town and was giving gifts to no one she knew. Naturally, Boss Mu regarded Song Liyun as a member of Suijin Town.
When Mrs. Cui heard him say that he "had one at home", she immediately blushed and turned purple.
Although the incident between Xu Yan'er and Xue Zhuang happened among the migrant workers, almost no one in the town knew about it at the time, but... the people in the military camp knew about it!
So much time had passed, and so many people came to eat, drink and play cards, and some men had big mouths, so the news gradually spread.
Xue Zhuang is a man who does not feel ashamed of it. Instead, he feels a little proud when others talk about it.
Fortunately, there were not many wives and mothers-in-law in Suijin Town, and they did not have much friendship with each other. No one went to Mrs. Cui to expose her faults and curse her, so she thought the matter was over.
At this time, Mrs. Cui wanted to discredit Song Liyun in front of Boss Mu, but who knew that she would be beaten as soon as she stretched out her face.
"Boss Mu, you, you're talking nonsense!" Mrs. Cui's face flushed as she argued, "She's a shameless woman running around everywhere and even coming to my house to drink. Isn't that shameful?
My daughter is not like that. She never goes out."
"What did I say? It's you who said it.
You said it yourself, people come to your house to drink. You sell alcohol at home, and if they don't drink, they will just drink the wind!
No one comes to your house, but you complain about poor business and no money. People come to your house for drinks, but you say it's embarrassing. You've said everything you want. What exactly do you want to be satisfied with?
Besides, this is Suijin Town, not the capital. Without a daughter of a wealthy family, you'd be living a shameless life hiding at home."
Although this place is a hundred miles away from the Dilu grassland, it is also a small border town and does not have those poor and sophisticated things.
Women on the grassland have to ride horses to herd cattle, women on the farm have to roll up their sleeves and go to the fields to work, and women doing business have to show their faces in public.
In a word, if you want to survive, you have to put aside your pride.
Boss Mu pushed the acorn tofu toward Mrs. Cui and said unhappily, "Take it away! I have business to attend to."
He is a businessman, and his customers include both men and women. If women don't go out, his business will be reduced by half.
Leaving the sulking Mrs. Cui behind, Boss Mu turned and walked back into the shop, smiling broadly. "Hey, officers, what are you looking for? I have rice, flour, grain, oil, new fabrics, calfskin boots, and even some sesame cakes I bought from Qili County yesterday..."
"Hey! This sesame cake, I heard it tastes good!" Wang Qi shouted after only hearing half of it.
It’s good to send snacks! I can also eat a few to satisfy my craving.
"Yes, Boss Mu, bring me two pounds of crispy cakes and two pounds of wine."
A few rough men were buying things carelessly.
Mrs. Cui, carrying acorn tofu, walked past the soldier with a look of disdain: "Bitch, bastard, you are all lowly."
It has been almost two months since Xu Yaner got married, but Mrs. Cui's hatred for Song Liyun has grown deeper and deeper.
Especially a few days ago, the couple quarreled in the middle of the night. Yan'er cried and asked for a divorce, saying that Xue Zhuang was still thinking about his ex-girlfriend.
Naturally, Mrs. Cui scolded her daughter and told her not to make trouble with her son-in-law for no reason. If she really got divorced, how would she be able to return to her parents' home?
Having said that, she still felt sorry for her daughter's poor marriage.
Although I can make money every day by running a restaurant, there are always a group of grown men coming in and out of my house every day.
What kind of dirty things are being said? How can we live like this?
If Song Liyun hadn't gone out to run around that night, Yan'er wouldn't have followed her out and gotten lost, and she wouldn't have been raped by Xue Zhuang right under her nose.
And this acorn tofu, even though she knew her family was selling it, that bitch Song Liyun still handed it over to Boss Mu, letting others make a few more cents for nothing.
Mrs. Cui returned home with a gloomy face and cursed inwardly all the way.
As soon as she stepped into the courtyard, she saw a drunk man lying behind the door and vomiting. The sudden and sour smell almost made her vomit.
"God damn it! It's not even noon yet and you're already drunk. You can't drink but you keep drinking and you make me so tired that I have to sweep the floor for you!"
Mrs. Cui was already feeling suffocated, and now there was already a drunkard before lunch time. Thinking that she would have to be busy all day like this, she couldn't help but curse.
The drunk was feeling dizzy, and when he heard the woman's voice, he reached over and said, "Wife, bring me some water."
Mrs. Cui was so angry that she dropped the acorn basin and started to fight with the drunkard: "Get out! Get out!"
When Xue Zhuang came out of the house, Mrs. Cui had been pinned to the ground by the drunkard... Her clothes were disheveled, with the front of her clothes wide open, and the drunkard was busy unbuttoning his belt.
"I'm going to kill you!"
Seeing that this drunkard dared to be rude to his mother-in-law in broad daylight, Xue Zhuang was so angry that he kicked him away.
Mrs. Cui was both ashamed and angry. She got up from the ground, grabbed a wooden stick, and started beating the drunkard all over the face, cursing as she beat him: "I'll beat you to death, I'll beat you to death, you dare not bully me?"
As he was beaten, he felt ashamed and angry, and couldn't help but burst into tears. He wondered what sin he had committed to deserve such humiliation.
The drunkard was also awakened by the pain at this time. He knew that he had behaved immorally while drunk and cried out, "Stop hitting me. I'll pay you money, silver!"
Pay the money!
Xue Zhuang and Mrs. Cui's eyes lit up at the same time.
Mrs. Cui looked at herself: not a single hair was missing, this money came too easily.
But when she turned around and saw the shifty looks from the men around her, Mrs. Cui felt a chill down her spine. She lifted her skirt and went back into the house, not daring to come out.
