Chapter 30

“Mom and Dad would be so happy if they knew you could earn so much money.”

Thinking about this, she really missed her parents. She wondered when she could go back to see them.

“Pretty Auntie, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you happy? Don’t you like these clothes?”

Li Haoyang was very perceptive and could sense her change in mood. He said in a childish voice, “If you don’t like these, let’s go to the tailor shop. Master Sun at the tailor shop is very skilled. Xiaobao’s clothes are all made by him.”

Song Shishi smiled and touched his face, “No, Auntie just misses Mom and Dad a little bit.”

“Then Auntie can go home.”

“Auntie can’t go back now.”

“Then make a phone call. Xiaobao calls Mom when he misses her.”

“…”

She was whispering with Li Haoyang, while Su Yaqin had disappeared somewhere and wasn’t in the ready-made clothing shop.

Looking up, she happened to see Xu Li coming out after changing her clothes.

Her skin was a wheat-like color due to long-term sun exposure, but her features were delicate.

The blouse she was wearing made her look even more beautiful.

She looked like a doll.

“Does it look good?” Xu Li asked, a little unsure.

Li Haoyang exclaimed, “Wow… Auntie Li, you look so pretty.”

Xu Li blushed and covered her face with a shy smile, “Really?”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah.” Li Haoyang nodded repeatedly.

…

After Song Shishi helped Xu Li choose her clothes, she was thinking of going to the tailor shop to order two cotton coats for her and Xu Li, but Su Yaqin hadn’t come back yet. They didn’t want to leave without her, afraid that she wouldn’t be able to find them later.

“Strange, where did your mom go?” Song Shishi held Li Haoyang and looked out of the ready-made clothing shop.

Li Haoyang glanced at the rich uncle standing by the car, “I don’t know, but Mom shouldn’t be far away. Pretty Auntie, let’s wait for Mom a little longer.”

“Okay.”

After waiting for a while, Song Shishi happened to see the rich uncle looking at something and suddenly running in one direction.

She curiously got up and followed him.

Seeing this, Song Shishi also became anxious and followed him with Li Haoyang in her arms.

She saw that not far from them, at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, Su Yaqin was wrestling with a woman with a mean face.

Getting closer, afraid that Li Haoyang would be scared by such a scene, she covered his eyes, whispered a few words of comfort, and then handed him to Xu Li to take care of.

The woman was thin, with a mean look in her eyes and eyebrows, “I’ll beat you to death, you slut! You’re so stubborn, you want to buy it, do you think you’re rich? I’ll make you look down on people!”

The woman grabbed Su Yaqin’s arm and pulled hard, almost pulling her to the ground.

But she didn’t let go of her hand that was grabbing Su Yaqin’s hair.

Su Yaqin grimaced in pain, and her dress was torn by the woman.

Seeing more and more people watching, Song Shishi picked up a broom from the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative and swung it at the woman.

“Let go, do you hear me?”

The broom hit the woman’s arm that was grabbing Su Yaqin’s hair, and the woman immediately let go in pain.

She was quick-witted and immediately stepped forward to help Su Yaqin up. After tidying up her outer jacket, she turned around to stand in front of Su Yaqin, her eyes alertly watching the woman.

The rich uncle, being a man, couldn’t do anything. Seeing that they had finally separated, he rushed forward to stand in front of Song Shishi and Su Yaqin, shouting loudly, “I warn you, I’ve already called the police. The police will be here soon, we won’t let this go easily.”

Seeing the rich uncle, Song Shishi finally felt relieved.

She turned around and hugged Su Yaqin, who was crying like a tearful child, and checked to see if she was injured.

“Police? Who are you kidding? Do you think I’m scared of you?” The woman said, then pointed at Su Yaqin and continued to scold, “I hate you rich people the most. You think you’re better than everyone else just because you have a few stinky dollars. I spit on you!”

Song Shishi frowned.

In her impression, Su Yaqin was not that kind of person.

What the woman said must not be true.

From the crowd, someone shouted, “The police are here, everyone make way.”

The woman, who had been very arrogant, turned around and tried to slip into the crowd as soon as she heard this.

The rich uncle didn’t have time to think, he stepped forward and grabbed the woman’s arm, pulling her back.

The woman struggled desperately, and her mouth didn’t stop, “You old rascal, let me go! If you don’t let me go, I’ll call for help!”

The rich uncle didn’t pay any attention to her, he simply raised his other hand and waved to the police, “Police officers, over here, over here.”

“What happened?”

The rich uncle waited until the police reached his side before releasing his hand that was grabbing the woman’s arm.

Because he didn’t know what happened, the rich uncle only said that he saw the woman beating Su Yaqin.

Beating someone could be a big or small matter, but looking at Su Yaqin’s disheveled appearance and the obviously expensive jacket she was wearing, the police officers had a general idea.

But they still had to ask.

Su Yaqin sobbed and told the police what happened.

It turned out that Su Yaqin wanted to buy some meat and vegetables at the supply and marketing cooperative, but because she bought a lot, the woman behind her was two people away from her in line.

When it was the woman’s turn to buy meat, there was no more left.

The woman held a grudge, so when she saw Su Yaqin buying vegetables, she deliberately sneered at her, almost pointing her nose at Su Yaqin and scolding her.

Su Yaqin was not someone who would take it lying down, and she immediately retorted.

The woman lost face and chased after Su Yaqin when she saw her leaving.

Then came the scene that Song Shishi and the others saw.

Su Yaqin was a cultured person after all, how could she fight with that woman?

The police took their statements and questioned the staff of the supply and marketing cooperative. Then Su Yaqin was sent to the hospital, and the woman was taken away by the police.

The woman was also a bully, she immediately became honest when she saw the police.

Before leaving, Su Yaqin didn’t forget to ask the rich uncle to carry the meat and vegetables she bought at the supply and marketing cooperative.

“It’s a good thing I didn’t buy eggs, otherwise, there wouldn’t be any left now. By the way, take these back with you when you go back. I see that you’ve lost weight these days, go back and eat more.”

Sitting on the hospital bed, Su Yaqin was still thankful for her wisdom.

Song Shishi, however, kept frowning, “You scared us today. Next time, don’t get into conflicts with people when you’re alone, otherwise, if you get into trouble, you won’t have anyone to help you.”

“I know, I was just so focused on protecting the vegetables, so…” Sensing Song Shishi’s low mood, Su Yaqin’s voice became softer and softer.
