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

Chapter 213: Bringing Food to Grandma

The person coming isn’t anyone else but Liu Cuilan who just returned from work.

As soon as the words fell, the two started wrestling together.

The scene was bustling for a while, pulling hair, scratching faces, biting...

Grandma Liu immediately slapped her thigh, "Oh my goodness, you’re all adults now, still fighting? Aren’t you ashamed? Hurry up someone and separate them."

The two were fighting fiercely, whoever went up was no use.

Before long, the two aunts who tried to stop the fight got somewhat involved too, returning with disheveled hair.

Su Xiaoxiao rubbed her temples, her mom’s fighting spirit really was something else.

Just considering asking the two little brothers for help to pull them apart; continuing like this, one might get seriously hurt.

She turned her head and saw the two little brothers were just eyeing Zhang Dongmei.

The two were sticking their tongues out at Zhang Dongmei.

"Fatty!"

"Ugly!"

Zhang Dongmei was furious and stepped forward to grab them, but the two were as slippery as eels, starting to play tag around the pole with her.

Forget it... these two were hopeless.

The commotion attracted attention, and soon someone brought the village chief over.

"Alright, stop it now, or every house will lose a work point."

With that said, the two immediately stopped.

Meanwhile, Zhang Dongmei was still chasing the two little brothers up and down; they taunted her as they ran, making Zhang Dongmei hopping mad.

The village chief ground his teeth, "Everyone stop this!"

The daily policies were stressful enough, now he had to deal with neighbor disputes, he was really tired.

"Alright, I’ve heard about this, both families have issues, just take a step back for me..."

Before he finished speaking, a wet ball of mud suddenly splattered on his face, slowly slipping down his nose.

The scene went silent instantly, with only two bold laughs standing out.

Everyone followed the sound and saw the two little brothers holding wet mud balls in their hands, laughing uproariously.

"Su Jianwen! Su Jianwu!"

A roar echoed through the clouds, and eventually, the farce ended with the two little brothers getting a good beating.

After Zhang Dongmei and her mother were angrily sent away, none of the onlookers left.

Everyone looked nervously at Su Xiaoxiao.

"Xiaoxiao girl, can you still help us bring things?"

"Su family’s girl, we are relying on you, our old bodies can’t get to the city, and even if we did, we wouldn’t know which way the department store entrance opens, if you don’t help, what can we do."

"Yeah, yeah, it’s not like it’s illegal, don’t listen to those two talking nonsense, you’re doing it for us, we are so grateful."

Everyone looked at Su Xiaoxiao expectantly, talking over each other.

Liu Cuilan pouted, "Such thankless tasks, I think it’s better not to do them. Save for those who don’t know who think our family’s third child is making a lot of money? Daily busying without any gain, adding more trouble."

What she said was true; although many asked Su Xiaoxiao to bring things, many suspected she was taking cuts.

Though unsaid, the suspicion was apparent.

"Cuilan, look at how you say that, we trust Xiaoxiao girl’s help and believe they wouldn’t do such outrageous things?"

"Certainly, we’re not the kind to eat with a bowl and curse when putting it down, right everyone?"

"Exactly, Xiaoxiao girl, we trust you and only you, we’ll ask you for help again in the future."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at everyone with a troubled face, then at Liu Cuilan.

Liu Cuilan turned to go inside, "Why are you staring at me? Your business, you decide, I don’t care."

She glared at the two little brothers standing dumb, "Why’re you standing there? Go inside and do your homework."

Facing her gaze, the two little brothers shrank back immediately and hurried inside.

Facing everyone’s expectant gaze, Su Xiaoxiao cleared her throat and said, "Alright, let’s not get angry at those people, it’s not worth it. If you need any deliveries in the future, you can still find me."

Upon hearing this assurance, everyone relaxed completely.

Xiaoxiao girl really has a kind heart, even given the circumstances, she still chooses to help.

Some who had doubted Su Xiaoxiao before were now feeling remorseful.

They had misunderstood Xiaoxiao girl in the past; it was disgraceful.

When Su Xiaoxiao entered the house, she saw her mom, Liu Cuilan, calmly sitting at the table, amusing little Shitou, with no trace of previous anger.

"Mom, you’re not angry anymore?"

She cozied up and poked little Shitou’s chubby cheek.

Feeling the soft touch, she couldn’t help but poke again.

Just as she was enjoying it, little Shitou suddenly opened his soft gums and bit her finger, trying hard to grind it with his teeth.

Su Xiaoxiao laughed, just couldn’t help but chuckle, when she heard her mom’s voice next to her ear.

"What’s there to be angry about? It’s right to help neighbors, when your dad died, if not for these neighbors, we’d have starved."

Su Xiaoxiao was curious, "Mom, then why just now..."

"I was just teaching them a lesson, you think everyone will appreciate your kindness?"

Liu Cuilan slapped her finger away, "Filthy, don’t put your grubby paws in our mouths."

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh sneakily, her mom was always tough on the outside but soft inside.

Anyway, she didn’t expect people to appreciate her; she was merely in it for earning money.

At that moment, Xu Zhaodi had finished cooking and was bringing dishes to the table.

The two little brothers rushed to help after washing their hands.

Liu Cuilan gave Su Xiaoxiao a glare, "Take some to your grandma."

Usually, Liu Cuilan delivered food to Wang Chunhua herself, but today holding little Shitou, she assigned the chore to Su Xiaoxiao.

Truthfully, Su Xiaoxiao had no fondness for Wang Chunhua, but she dared not defy her mom, reluctantly grabbing the bowls to deliver food.

One bowl with dishes, another with two buns.

Don’t be fooled by the old lady being bedridden for so long, her complexion was bright, and she’d gained some weight.

Su Xiaoxiao placed the bowl on the edge of the bed, "Grandma, eat first, I’ll collect the bowls later."

Wang Chunhua’s side was paralyzed, the other hand was fine, she had no issue eating by herself.

After setting the bowl, Su Xiaoxiao prepared to leave when she felt someone tug her sleeve.

Upon turning, she saw Wang Chunhua’s eyes fixed on her, her skewed mouth opening and closing, trying hard to say something.
