At that ti, if there’s a chance, he wants to go to the departnt store, maybe he might run into her there.
Thinking of this, he instantly got excited.
On the other side, Su Xiaoxiao hurried ho with the application announcent, using spices bought from the ga mall, she reprocessed those sausages.
Luckily, soone was dealing with spices in the mall, and the price was very cheap, otherwise, she really couldn’t afford it; after buying shampoo last ti, there was only a bit of change left in her wallet.
Now it’s even better, there’s no small change at all.
By the ti they were stead again, it was already past seven in the evening.
If it were modern tis, she definitely wouldn’t eat at this ti, but now, looking at the steaming sausages, Su Xiaoxiao only felt her appetite being stirred.
Bringing the sausages to the table, the two younger brothers imdiately flocked over excitedly at the scent.
Seeing the familiar sausages in the middle, the light in their eyes instantly dimd.
Su Jianwu, with a full face of disdain, spoke up: "Third sister, even Da Huang won’t eat this stuff, why don’t you just throw it away?"
Su Jianwen looked at the pile of sausages with a bit of a headache, but still nodded in agreent.
Though at is precious, this stuff is just too difficult to swallow, he’d rather gnaw on cold cornbread than eat this.
At dinner, Liu Cuilan and Xu Zhaodi, afraid of wasting food, each forced themselves to eat a piece, and they’re still taking turns squatting in the latrine now.
Although at is important, their lives are more important.
Su Xiaoxiao ignored them, broke off a piece, and tasted it herself first.
Although it’s not perfect, compared to before, it’s already quite good.
She took another bite with the cold cornbread, fully enjoying it.
Su Jianwu nudged Su Jianwen: "Fourth brother, do you think third sister has gone crazy for at? She can actually eat this awful stuff?"
Su Jianwen sniffed: "It does sll a bit different now than before."
"Should we give it a try?"
Su Jianwu couldn’t wait, tentatively broke off a small piece, took a bite, and his eyes lit up imdiately: "Fourth brother, it tastes great now, try it fast."
The two imdiately pounced like hungry wolves, each grabbing a piece, while Su Xiaoxiao raised her hand to slap the back of their hands: "It’s late, eat less, or else you’ll have a hard ti digesting."
Just as the words fell, Liu Cuilan and Xu Zhaodi ca in clutching the door fra. Seeing the sausages on the table, their faces turned pale simultaneously, and they clutched their stomachs turning to run.
Su Xiaoxiao: "..."
The bald brother’s sausages were really a nace.
To prevent that fellow from tainting others’ taste buds, she sent her modified sausage recipe over imdiately overnight.
After sending it, without waiting for a response, she went straight to sleep.
She still had to go to the departnt store to apply in the morning, so she had to sleep early.
The next day, before dawn, she got up to wash, and by the ti the two younger brothers got up, she’d already eaten and was ready to leave.
Last night, she already talked to Xu Zhaodi, asking her to help take the two younger brothers to school today.
Traveling wasn’t that convenient at this ti, so Su Xiaoxiao first took the village’s ox cart to the town, then switched to a bus in town. By the ti she reached the city departnt store, it was already mid-morning.
When she arrived at the departnt store’s sign-up place, she found it was already crowded, with a queue as long as that during the Spring Festival travel rush at a modern train station.
She looked around, chose a spot with relatively fewer people, and quietly lined up at the back. Just as she stood there, she heard a few disdainful voices beside her.
"Tsk, now any Tom, Dick, and Harry can apply for a job."
"Look at her shabby appearance, if she really becos a salesperson, wouldn’t it disgrace the departnt store?"
Su Xiaoxiao turned her head and saw two young girls wearing the fashionable pleated skirts of the ti.
One had a round face with two black braids, the other had a sharp chin and a slightly long face.
Facing the disdainful gazes of the two, she frowned and retorted bluntly: "There’s been reform and opening up, the people have taken charge of their own lives, maybe no one has inford you all yet?"
"I’d suggest you eat more celery, with words so big one would think you’ve already beco salespeople."
"You... how can you talk like that?"
The two didn’t expect Su Xiaoxiao to talk back. When they saw her shabby clothes lining up, yet with a pretty face, they felt uncomfortable and made a few snide remarks.
Unexpectedly, this wretched girl had such a sharp tongue.
At this mont, suddenly a cry of pain ca from beside them.
Su Xiaoxiao looked over and saw an old lady with patched clothes and full white hair fall to the ground.
The old lady was dirty all over, her clothes were patched upon patches, so parts even had loose threads, she looked exactly like a refugee from a famine.
People queuing around her imdiately held their noses and backed away with disdain.
"Running into a beggar first thing in the morning, what bad luck."
"Hurry and get lost, this isn’t the place for you."
Soone unceremoniously shooed away the old lady, who tried to stand up shakily, but sothing seed injured, and she couldn’t get off the ground for ages.
Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t stand it, hurried up to support her: "Granny, are you alright?"
During these tis, people were still pretty honest, there weren’t many scamrs, and she wasn’t worried about being tricked by the old lady. Besides, even if they wanted to extort money, she probably wasn’t even in their consideration range.
The old lady was moved to tears when she was helped up: "Young lady, thank you."
The round-faced girl who just looked down on Su Xiaoxiao scoffed: "Pah, pretending to be kind, there are no leaders watching here, you just want to stand out, don’t you?"
The sharp-chinned one agreed: "Maybe she’s a relative of hers? Look, they both dress like refugees, a pair of paupers." She finished, and a burst of laughter imdiately followed around them.
The sharp-chinned one looked smug: "Hurry and take your old fossil away, don’t hold up our application."
Su Xiaoxiao helped the old lady stand, then grabbed the sharp chin and gave her a loud slap.
"You... you country bumpkin dare to hit ?"
The sharp-chinned one didn’t expect her to start a fight, screeched and lunged at her.
Su Xiaoxiao grabbed her wrist: "My mom taught , when you encounter a bitch, you need to look for the reason within yourself, maybe my slap wasn’t quick enough to swell your nasty mouth, anyone else want to try? There’s plenty of slaps to go around."
While speaking, she grabbed the sharp-chinned one’s collar again, scaring her into screaming, hands flying up to protect her face.
She let go of her disdainfully, looking around: "I forgot to tell you, my temper is bad, but I’m good at hitting people."
The few girls who were glaring at her just now imdiately looked away guiltily.
Su Xiaoxiao carefully moved the old lady aside, and just as they were standing steady, she heard a familiar low, magnetic male voice.
