Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading

Chapter 163: You’re Ms. Wang’s Daughter, Aren’t You?

The middle-aged man who was riding the bike got up from the ground and adjusted his crooked black-rimmed glasses: "Little comrade, not slowing down when you bike to the intersection is one thing, but why speed up? That’s so dangerous."

In the end, Su Xiaoxiao apologized repeatedly with a forced smile, and only then did the man leave grumbling.

Su Xiaoxiao turned around to meet the resentful gazes of her two younger brothers and coughed lightly before speaking: "Sorry, Third Sister was careless just now, I didn’t dodge in time."

The two younger brothers gave her a fake smile, and the three continued on their way.

Having learned her lesson from this incident, Su Xiaoxiao slowed down her bike significantly.

Upon arriving at school, the two younger brothers immediately led Su Xiaoxiao straight to the teacher’s office.

Their homeroom teacher, surnamed Wang, was a middle-aged woman in her forties.

Teacher Wang hadn’t expected to summon the parents of these two mischievous kids, only for them to bring along a young lady who appeared barely older than them, which instantly furrowed her brow.

She was just about to speak when Su Xiaoxiao grasped her hand.

"Hello, you must be Teacher Wang’s daughter? I’m Su Jianwen and Su Jianwu’s sister, pleased to meet you."

Teacher Wang was completely thrown off by her words.

Once she regained her composure, she blushed slightly and cleared her throat: "What are you saying, I am Teacher Wang."

Su Xiaoxiao looked shocked: "Really? I heard Teacher Wang is in her forties, but you look around my age, just a bit over twenty. How could you be Teacher Wang? Don’t joke around."

Teacher Wang couldn’t help but beam: "Girl, did someone coat your mouth with honey?"

Standing nearby, Su Jianwen and Su Jianwu were stunned, their third sister’s skill in flattery was indeed top-notch.

"Sister, you really are Teacher Wang? What skincare products do you use regularly? Your skin is even better than mine."

Teacher Wang was blushing from the compliments: "Actually, I don’t use much, maybe just apply some cold cream when it’s cold."

"No wonder, it must be natural beauty. I said so, even the best skincare couldn’t possibly achieve your skin condition, tsk tsk, like a young girl in her twenties."

The two younger brothers exchanged a glance; no wonder their third sister could get into the department store!

Look at this mouth, she could talk the dead back to life.

"Alright, enough flattering me, we should get down to business."

Teacher Wang spoke with a smile, clearly much more relaxed than at the beginning.

"Miss, I’m telling the truth."

Teacher Wang pushed her bangs behind her ears and said: "I suppose you understand why I asked to see you this time?"

"I know, I know, Miss, don’t worry, I’ve already given them a hard lesson at home. I won’t let them make the same mistake again."

"If they dare cause any trouble in the future, you don’t need to hold back, just hit them directly. Additionally, I personally will sponsor a notebook for each of the classmates and have them bring them over tomorrow as compensation."

Admitting fault so readily and handling things well, Teacher Wang’s impression of Su Xiaoxiao greatly improved.

Initially seeing the two bring over a young girl, she thought she couldn’t handle things well, but the girl handled everything so properly.

"Alright, there’s nothing else, you can go now."

Teacher Wang waved her hand with a smile.

"Miss, thank you for your time on this matter."

Speaking, Su Xiaoxiao swiftly took a flashlight from a pocket and placed it on Teacher Wang’s desk.

"Miss, I really don’t know how to thank you for what happened today, look, I work at the city’s department store, this was a batch of defective products from our store. If you don’t mind, I’m giving you one."

Teacher Wang was startled by the item on the desk, the flashlight was a rare thing not easily bought with tickets, how could this girl just give it away?

She quickly waved her hand: "I appreciate the sentiment, but this is too valuable, you should take it back."

"Miss, this is just a defective product from the store, not worth much, as long as you don’t mind."

Teacher Wang actually always wanted to buy a flashlight, sometimes coming home late she can hardly see the road.

But such a principled matter, she couldn’t bring herself to commit.

She immediately sternly refused: "Comrade Su, thank you for your kind thought, but I cannot accept it. If you have extras you can sell me one, I’ll pay market price."

Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but admire the virtuous character of teachers of this era.

Unlike teachers in some places now who overtly or covertly ask parents for gifts.

She remembered a friend mentioning before, positions in Shanxi schools were ranked according to the amount of gifts sent to teachers.

"Miss, here’s the deal, if you don’t mind, I’ll sell you this flashlight, it’s a defective product we sell for a dollar each without tickets."

"So cheap?"

This price was half of the normal rate, Teacher Wang still hesitated to accept.

She didn’t want to destroy her half life’s reputation for a flashlight.

Su Xiaoxiao fiddled with the flashlight a few times: "This is defective so it’s cheap, Miss, look the switch is a bit faulty here."

Su Xiaoxiao repeatedly turned the flashlight on and off, indeed at times it seemed unresponsive.

Confirming it was defective, Teacher Wang finally relaxed, taking a dollar from her pocket to hand to Su Xiaoxiao: "Then thank you, Comrade Su."

Having resolved her younger brother’s matters, Su Xiaoxiao promptly biked to the department store, almost late due to the delay.

Actually, the flashlight was completely fine, she only did a little trick earlier, the issue was minor.

Just as she entered the store, the people who ordered duck necks yesterday swarmed around her.

Su Xiaoxiao opened the prepared sack, inside were bags of separately packed duck necks, she quickly distributed them according to the names on the orders.

Everyone departed happily with their items.

Su Xiaoxiao put away the sack, just preparing to go to her counter when she encountered Zhang Dongmei opening her shift as well.

Zhang Dongmei proudly shook the oil paper pouch in her hand toward Su Xiaoxiao: "Su Xiaoxiao, don’t think only your family can make brine flavor, my mom can too, and it tastes even better than yours."

Speaking, she opened the oil paper pouch in her hand: "This is the duck goods my mom specially made last night, come, everyone try it. If it’s good, you can buy from me, my price is cheaper than Su Xiaoxiao’s."
