Chapter 18
When everyone heard this, they looked at Su Li with an even more unfriendly gaze. They couldn’t even bear to buy meat once a year. How good Su Li was. If she didn’t get meat, it was eggs. She had raised herself to be fair and fat.
Su Li looked at Wang Jinxue mockingly. “Your nose is really sharp. If you say that you’re second, even the dogs in the village won’t dare to say that they’re first.”
“Are you comparing me to a dog?” Wang Jinxue was so angry that her nose was almost crooked.
Su Li spread her hands innocently. “I didn’t say that. You were the one who claimed it. Everyone can testify for me.”
“Your basket is full. Do you dare to say that you didn’t buy any meat?” Wang Jinxue continued to point the finger at Su Li’s basket.
Su Li glanced at Wang Jinxue. “What does it have to do with you whether I buy meat or not? Why are you caring so much?”
The woman at the side pursed her lips and said, “Mother of Dahu, it’s fine if you buy whatever you want. We won’t snatch your things, let alone be jealous of you. But it’s not right for you to hide it like this. Are you treating us as bandits?”
When Su Li heard the words “Mother of Dahu” again, she was still a little unaccustomed. Could it be that the term “Mother of Dahu” had magic? Couldn’t they change the way they addressed her?
“That’s right. Is there a need to hide something you bought? It’s as if everyone has never eaten pork!”
Su Li said, “I really didn’t buy pork. I just bought some worthless things. I won’t embarrass myself!”
Fortunately, she had the foresight to throw the pork into the interspace. Otherwise, this group of people would be jealous!
Although she was not afraid of those rumors, sometimes people needed a good reputation. A good reputation could help you solve many problems.
However, a good reputation was impossible for her in this lifetime. The original owner’s tricks had long kicked her out of the three worlds. It was probably impossible for her to crawl back, but this did not stop Su Li from feeling that she could still be saved.
Although a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, it was best if it could avoid getting scalded as much as possible!
Su Li removed the layer covering the basket, and a smell assaulted their noses. The gossipy crowd pinched their noses and dispersed.
“What’s in your basket? Why does it smell so bad?”
“That smells like shit in a latrine. Mother of Dahu, you didn’t pick up a piece of shit and come back, did you?”
Pig intestine: … I smell so good, why are you so biased against me?
Su Li blinked innocently and said to everyone, “I bought some pig intestines from a pork shop. No one bought that thing. The pork shop owner is selling it cheaply. I thought that I could still eat two more meals after buying it, so I bought it back.”
“Just now, Wang Jinxue said that she smelled pork. I think that’s what she smelled. After all, pig intestines are also from pigs!”
Su Li changed the topic again. “Speaking of which, the taste of pig intestines and pork is so different. How could Wang Jinxue be mistaken? Could it be that she usually eats pig intestines like pork?”
As soon as she said that, everyone turned to look at Wang Jinxue.
Wang Jinxue blushed and stomped her feet anxiously. “What nonsense are you talking about!”
Su Li gave Wang Jinxue a look that said she had seen through her but she would not expose it. Then, she placed the basket on the ox cart and said to Old Zhao.
“Master Zhao, everyone is here. Let’s go!”
Old Zhao finished the last puff of his cigarette and said to everyone, “Those who are taking the bus please pay first.”
Everyone paid and hurriedly got into the car, afraid that they would not be able to get a good seat if they were too slow.
As Wang Jinxue was a little slow, she was squeezed to the back. After she got into the car, she even glared at Su Li, as if Su Li was the one who caused all of this.
Before Su Li reached home, she saw the two little fellows standing in the distance.
“Are you guys waiting for me?” Su Li asked.
“No!” the brothers said in unison.
