Grandma He, who lived on the first floor, stopped Zhao Meifen. She walked forward with a cane and said, "Is it Xiaoxue's mother?"
Although Grandma He has severe cataracts in her eyes, making everyone look like a blur, she has good ears and can determine the identity of a person based on the sound of their walking.
And it's extremely accurate.
Because Zhao Meifen's house is right on top of Grandma He's house. Although there is a layer in the middle, this does not prevent Grandma He, who has good hearing, from hearing clearly what Su Baozhu just said to Zhao Meifen at home.
What.
Grandma He doesn't mind other people's business, but this matter is related to Amelia Su, so she will inevitably have to come out and say something.
After all, there are many young children in this compound, but Su Xue is the only one who is willing to spend time with her and help her wash her hair.
Zhao Meifen hummed, "Mom..."
"The thing you are carrying is going to be thrown away, right? Can you give it to me?"
"aunt?"
The tears that Zhao Meifen had finally stopped were about to fall again. She choked and looked at Grandma He. Grandma He sighed, fumbled to her with a cane, stretched out her hand to touch the bag in Zhao Meifen's hand, and turned around with it
gone.
It wasn't until the door of Grandma He's house was closed that Zhao Meifen came back to her senses. She raised her hand to wipe her tears, turned around and walked home.
"Oh, I said Xiaoxue's mother, your biological daughter is really not a human being."
Aunt Li stopped her from speaking.
Zhao Meifen thought Aunt Li was because of what happened just now, so she looked at Aunt Li with some dislike.
"What do you think I'm doing? I'm telling you, you still don't know, right? That orb of yours, she actually took away all their money when she left the village."
Aunt Li was mysterious, as if she was doing some shady job, so she leaned in front of Zhao Meifen and whispered.
Zhao Meifen was surprised, "What did you say? How is this possible?"
"How is it impossible? Your Xiaoxue brought people to find Su Baozhu today. I heard it true from the sidelines that Su Baozhu stole their family's money. It is said that it is quite a lot!"
"No, there must be a misunderstanding here!"
Although Zhao Meifen was a little disappointed with Su Baozhu, when she heard others say that she was a thief, Zhao Meifen still subconsciously wanted to deny it. She did not believe that her daughter could be so bad.
That is stealing money, and you will be caught by the police if you steal money.
"No, that child Baozhu would not do such a thing. There must be a misunderstanding here. I'll go back and ask her. There must be a misunderstanding!"
Zhao Meifen said and walked quickly back home, ignoring Aunt Li who was watching the show.
Aunt Li's gloating voice came from behind her, "Let me tell you, Xiaoxue Ma, you have to ask clearly. Baozhu is not young anymore. If she has the reputation of being a thief, no one will dare to marry her."
"By the way, your two sons haven't said goodbye yet, right? We can't let their biological sisters get involved!"
Aunt Li's voice still sounded from behind, and Zhao Meifen almost ran away and rushed home. Aunt Li's hahahahaha laughter sounded immediately behind her.
Zhao Meifen felt that the Su family was going to be disgraced.
………
Having returned to the village, Su Xue didn't know what happened in the family home. They had returned home with a full load from the city today. Su Xue not only bought the sewing machine they wanted, but also bought ten pounds of cotton. This was a godsend to them.
Big good news.
Once you have cotton, you can make quilts, and then you won’t have to worry about being frozen in winter.
In addition to cotton, Su Xue also bought a new pair of shoes for each of her three children. The two brothers bought Jiefang shoes, which are durable and durable, allowing them to jump up and down.
Su Baoer loves to look beautiful, so Su Xue bought her a pair of crystal sandals, which cost three yuan, which was not much different from the price of Jiefang shoes.
The three siblings each held their own new shoes and liked them very much. However, when they saw that Su Xue had not bought anything except a sewing machine, their joy dropped a little.
"Sister, why don't you buy shoes?"
Su Baoer asked, shaking Su Xue's arm.
Su Xue smiled and touched Su Baoer's hair, "Sister, I have shoes to wear."
When she came back, in addition to a pair of cloth shoes, she also brought two pairs of shoes, a pair of small leather shoes and a pair of small white shoes. She had not worn these two pairs of shoes a few times, and they were still very new and OK.
Wear it for several years.
Su Bao'er was still young, so when Su Xue said she still had shoes to wear, she nodded and didn't ask any further questions. She hugged her new sandals and ran aside to play.
Su Xue smiled and continued to record today's expenses in her notebook.
The sewing machine she bought will not be delivered until the day after tomorrow, along with the two quilts and the ten pounds of cotton bombs, when an acquaintance comes from the city to deliver the goods to the supply and marketing cooperative in their town.
, and then help bring it over.
Today I spent a total of one hundred and eighty yuan to buy a sewing machine and eight yuan for ten kilograms of cotton. Cotton is now more expensive than pork. There is no way around it, because the output is too low and they don’t have much money here.
Cotton is grown, so the price of cotton is extra expensive.
I bought a sewing machine, cotton, new shoes for the three brothers and sisters, plus some scattered needles, thread, and other things, for a total of two hundred and thirty-two yuan.
Thirty-two yuan was taken out by Su Xue from her pocket, and two hundred yuan was taken from the deposit receipt obtained from Su Baozhu.
Two hundred were used out of the eight hundred, and six hundred was left.
Su Xue decided that these six hundred dollars should never be spent until the critical moment.
Then she only has one hundred dollars left...
"well…"
We still have to make money! The sewing machine should arrive early...
"Sister, can I go play with Xiaohua and the others?" Su Baoer ran over holding her new sandals and looked at Su Xue expectantly.
Su Xue nodded, "Go ahead, just don't go to the river."
The water system in their village is very developed. The dam where they live now is separated from the small group by the widest river in the village. The river is almost twenty meters wide. A dam has been built to block the water, which diverts most of the water.
It was blocked above and used to irrigate the fields in the village.
Many children would go down to the river to play in the summer. Su Bao'er was still young and Su Xue wouldn't let her go.
Fortunately, Su Baoer is a girl, and girls are very obedient. Whatever her sister says is what she wants.
"Bao'er knows, Bao'er won't go to the river."
Su Bao'er said and ran out happily holding her new sandals. From the corner of Su Xue's eyes, she saw Su Xiaohu looking at Su Bao'er with envy as she went out. She curled her lips in a funny way, "Xiaohu wants to go too."
Are you looking for a friend to show off your new shoes?"
Su Xiaohu's face turned red when he was guessed, and he reacted in an instant and said loudly, "Who wants to go? Only Su Baoer can do such childish things."
"Okay, then go and watch Bao'er and don't let her go to the river."
"That……"
Su Xiaohu wanted to ask if he could put on new shoes, but thinking of what he had just said, he couldn't ask.
Su Xue burst out laughing, "Okay, let's put on new shoes!"
There was a hint of joy on Su Xiaohu's face, but he soon returned to a serious expression, "Who wants new shoes? I'm not a child!" After saying that, he carefully put his new shoes aside and rubbed oil on the soles of his feet.
Slip away.
Su Xue:......
If it weren't for the way he carefully put down his shoes, she would have believed that he had no feeling for the new shoes.
The update is complete. At present, it seems that this book is really cool. I don’t know what kind of writing the little cuties like.
