The old lady's voice was very sharp, and Sui Yuzhu didn't think she was talking to her, so she was still talking to Zhao Jiangxue.
However, before he could say two words, he suddenly felt someone grabbing his hair and pulling him backwards!
The force was so great that Sui Yuzhu's body was pulled backwards.
Sui Yuzhu didn't even bother to look back, she could only press her hands on the roots of her hair and forcefully pull her hair out of the other person's hands.
Zhao Jiangxue, who was standing by, was startled by this sudden change, but she quickly reacted, reached out to support Sui Yuzhu, and at the same time kicked the old lady behind her.
The old lady was kicked and had no choice but to loosen her grip on Sui Yuzhu and move sideways to avoid Zhao Jiangxue's attack.
After she withdrew the strength in her hands, Sui Yuzhu turned around and looked over.
An old lady in her fifties was staring at him angrily.
He has messy white hair, a round and plump face, and a face full of freckles and wrinkles, which are wrinkled like the peel of a dried orange.
There was a dark circle under his eyes, and the bags under his eyes drooped down. His eyes were shining with a gleam that made people feel uncomfortable when looking at them.
"You old woman, why are you going crazy in public?" Zhao Jiangxue glared at the old lady.
It was obvious that she now regarded Sui Yuzhu as her friend.
Now that Sui Yuzhu is in trouble, he naturally wants to stand by her side.
Sui Yuzhu glanced at her sideways and raised her lips slightly.
She then turned to look at the old woman standing beside her with a suspicious look on her face, and asked in a calm voice, "You old woman, in broad daylight, are you trying to hurt someone intentionally?"
She had already guessed who the old woman was.
The old woman looked Sui Yuzhu up and down, frowned, and asked, "You're not Wu Xiaoli? What's your name? You really don't know me?"
As he spoke, he looked at Sui Yuzhu, trying to see something from her face.
During this period of time, Sui Yuzhu's complexion has improved a lot, and her temperament has also changed.
The most important thing is that he no longer has the timid look he had at the beginning, so the old woman couldn't recognize him.
Sui Yuzhu didn't answer her question, but just said, "My name is none of your business. Don't harass me again, or I can call the police to arrest you!"
As soon as she heard this, the old woman was certain that this was definitely not her cowardly daughter.
If this were my daughter, she would definitely not dare to talk to me like this.
Thinking of this, she put on a stern face and said in a calm voice: "No, then no, look at what you can do!"
While speaking, he looked Sui Yuzhu up and down again, his expression still somewhat suspicious.
This face looks exactly like that bitch's.
Are there really people in the world who look so alike?
Seeing the bus coming, Sui Yuzhu ignored the old woman and left with Zhao Jiangxue.
The old woman was thinking about something, and she didn't know what she was thinking about. Her small eyes suddenly opened wide, and she looked in the direction the two people left with some disbelief.
After getting in the car, Zhao Jiangxue looked at Sui Yuzhu and asked, "Little girl, do you know that old woman?"
Sui Yuzhu shook her head, indicating that she didn't know him, and didn't say anything else.
Hearing her say she didn't know him, Zhao Jiangxue felt a little indignant. "If I had known, I would have slapped her twice! These days, morals are so bad, there really are all kinds of people. If this woman is a kidnapper and says she's your mother, and you have no one to prove it, then she can say whatever she wants."
Sui Yuzhu glanced at her sideways.
"Don't disbelieve me. There are all kinds of people out there now. You have to be more careful when you go out and don't let people cheat you!" Zhao Jiangxue warned again.
Sui Yuzhu nodded slightly to indicate that she understood.
Soon, the two arrived and got off the bus.
Sui Yuzhu looked at Zhao Jiangxue and asked, "Are you going back home for lunch? Or are you going to eat here?"
When Zhao Jiangxue heard this, her expression instantly turned anticipatory: "Stay here for dinner? Is that okay?"
Sui Yuzhu didn't say anything, but took her to the vegetable market and asked her what she wanted to eat.
"I've already told you in advance that my cooking isn't good. If you want to eat, don't be so picky."
Sui Yuzhu's statement is called "saying the ugly words in advance".
Zhao Jiangxue laughed, "How can it be worse than what I cook? I don't believe that if you make such delicious pudding, your cooking can be so bad!"
After the two returned home, Sui Yuzhu started to get busy.
Zhao Jiangxue didn't feel comfortable just sitting there doing nothing, so she came to the kitchen to help.
Sui Yuzhu suddenly thought of what she had just said about her stepmother.
"Is your stepmother not good to you?" Sui Yuzhu asked.
Zhao Jiangxue shrugged. "How many stepmothers treat their stepdaughters well? She's one face in front of my dad and another in front of me. I wouldn't say she beats me, but when we're alone at home, she uses all sorts of sarcastic remarks to irritate me."
Zhao Jiangxue put the selected vegetables under the faucet and began to rinse them, her expression becoming a little dazed.
"I'm telling you this because I consider you a friend. I was in a mental hospital for a while when I was a kid because my stepmother said I was mentally ill."
When saying this, Zhao Jiangxue's face was calm, as if it had really passed.
Sui Yuzhu looked at her in surprise.
"My dad was busy with work, so after my mom passed away, I was alone at home, taking care of myself. Then one time I got scalded by boiling water, and my dad said he'd find me a stepmother to take care of me."
Zhao Jiangxue laughed as she spoke. "But having a stepmother is worse than not having one. I was always hungry and full. She sent me straight to a mental hospital."
Sui Yuzhu looked at her, and her expression changed slightly.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I'm mentally ill? Tell me, I'm perfectly normal!" Zhao Jiangxue explained anxiously.
Seeing this, Sui Yuzhu reached out and hugged her, saying softly, "You must be very sad, right?"
Hearing her words, the muscles at the corners of Zhao Jiangxue's eyes twitched, and tears flowed down without warning.
In order not to expose her weakness, she quickly raised her hand and wiped away her tears, laughing and saying, "It's the past. I don't care about it anymore. Besides, my stepmother died of illness a long time ago!"
At this point, she sneered, "She curses my mother all day long for an early death, but she herself is not much better. She is three or four years younger than my mother was when she died!"
