"Taotao, it must be very hard for you to go to the countryside. I heard that the work in the countryside is dirty and tiring. How do you bear it?" Aunt Fang Hanyu seemed concerned on the surface, but was actually sarcastic.
"It's okay. I'm an accountant in the countryside. My office is warm in winter and cool in summer. It's better than having someone come to collect garbage." Su Tao smiled faintly.
Aunt Su Tao was choked up. To prevent her daughter Zhou Siqi from going to the countryside, she had found her a job collecting garbage at a sanitation station. It wasn't hard work, but it was embarrassing to say it out loud. When people asked what you did, you said you collected garbage.
In fact, her aunt was already of retirement age and could have handed over her job at the cotton mill to her cousin, but she was reluctant to give up that little bit of good fortune and insisted on occupying the position, which often caused her cousin to complain about it.
When Su Tao's cousin Zhou Siqi heard this, she couldn't help but say angrily, "What are you talking about? I'm not a garbage collector, I'm collecting garbage fees."
Su Tao pretended to be surprised and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, look at my memory. I can't remember it clearly after a year in the countryside. I still remember that you were a garbage collector. I missed a word 'Fei', it's almost the same. Don't mind it too much, cousin." Su Tao even specifically pointed out that you were a garbage collector.
Zhou Siqi's face flushed with anger. This wasn't just a question of a single word. She hated it most when people mentioned her work.
Dad Su tried hard to hold back his laughter and gave a thumbs up behind his back. His daughter really had the solution.
Su Tao was quick-witted. Since he couldn't get the upper hand verbally, he'd use facts to overwhelm her. Fang Hanyu calmed down and asked with a smile, "I came here today mainly because I heard you were back, so I came to see you. Also, your cousin is getting married soon, so I have some good news for you guys."
"Then congratulations, cousin. I wish you a long and happy life together." Su Tao congratulated in a calm tone.
At this time, Su's mother also brought the cooked food to the table, "It's time to eat, eat first."
Su's mother wanted to use food to silence her aunt, but she didn't expect that the aunt's mouth could not be silenced by food. "Taotao, I heard from your grandmother that you found a fiancé in the countryside? Why haven't you seen him?"
Su Tao glanced at her aunt sarcastically. She was still wondering how long she would hold back before asking.
The uncle next to him knew his wife very well and knew that she was going to cause trouble, so he quickly nudged his wife with his elbow and said, "Talk less and eat."
But he didn't appreciate it. He glared at his uncle in dissatisfaction and said, "Why? I'm just concerned about Taotao. Taotao, I'm not saying anything to you, but how can you just find someone from the countryside? You can find someone from the city who's no better than him. Look at your cousin and your cousin-in-law. He's working at the supply and marketing cooperative and eating public food. How good is that?"
Before Su Tao could respond, his cousin Zhou Siqi raised her head and said in a haughty tone, as if offering alms: "Yes, Taotao, you are just young and don't know how to judge people. Ask your brother-in-law to find you a partner at his workplace someday. She will definitely be much better than your country girl."
They thought that Su Tao could find no good man in the countryside. They heard that he was not an educated youth, but a villager. Aunt Su Tao and her cousin imagined a thin, sallow, and weathered farmer.
Moreover, I heard that Su Tao had brought the person home and was living in Su Tao's house. Now I haven't seen him at all, which makes it even more certain that the person is not capable of being brought to justice, and Su Tao has asked someone to hide him.
Su's father and mother already had an angry look on their faces, but they didn't ask them to leave because of their relatives.
Zhou Siqi wanted to say something but was interrupted by Su Tao's crisp voice, "No, my fiancé is great, better than anyone else." Su Tao glanced meaningfully at Zhou Siqi's fiancé who was standing next to her with a smug look on his face.
