Chapter 168 You Can Be Poor When You Are Young

The shopkeeper wiped his sweat.

His eyes were full of contempt.

Just be stingy if you are stingy, I have never seen such a high-sounding expression of stinginess!

He looked at Su Jiu sympathetically, and went to get a cheap jacket.

Su Jiu turned his back to Xiao Tingchen, pretending to be looking at other clothes, but trembling with anger.

What does it mean that her luck is shallow?
What do you mean children don't have to dress so well?
She really wanted to kill the Great Demon King!
She is also a person with a temper, and she shouted angrily: "Shopkeeper, I will only buy this jacket and skirt, and I will only buy this one!"

"Tsk, my sister is really rich..." Xiao Tingchen smiled and curled his lips, "Five taels of silver, what is not good to buy, but to buy clothes, my sister is really generous! Why don't you buy me a suit too?"

"My little brother is growing up. Wouldn't it be a waste to buy clothes? Why don't you wear them? Spring will come and fall will save you a lot of money!"

Bickering between the two seems to have become commonplace.

After leaving the clothing store, Xiao Tingchen was going to buy pornographic books, but Su Jiu didn't want to follow, so he separated from him.

She was walking on Sanfu Street with the wrapped clothes in her arms, feeling a little apprehensive.

She actually spent five taels of silver on clothes because she was angry with her little brother!

What a luxury.

but……

Clean and white fingertips gently rubbed against the new clothes.

She really likes the pattern on the skirt!

The three jade rabbits are like the story my mother told her before, saying that there are three jade rabbits living in the Moon Palace. They are a family and live very happily every day.

The mother also said that when the father comes back, their family will be as happy as the jade rabbit.

But later, Dad didn't come back.

Even my mother left her...

When she grew up, the girls in the same village laughed at her. They said that there was only one jade rabbit in the Moon Palace, and that her story was made up.

She was very angry and rushed to fight with them fiercely.

That was the only time she ever got into a fight.

Those girls were scratched and cried by her, and they went home and told their parents, and their parents led them to the door for accountability, which made the aunt furious, picked up a broom and whipped her severely.

That night, she hid in the small kitchen and cried a lot.

Later, no matter how bullied she was, she seldom cried.

Because a child without a father or a mother has no other choice but to be strong.

The little girl's thoughts were flying.

Just at this time, a shy voice suddenly sounded:

"Small wine!"

Su Jiu looked over and saw Xu Nuanyue obediently standing in front of a pastry shop, holding a bunch of bright red candied haws in her hand.

She stepped forward, "Nuan Yue, why do you have time to come out to play today? Does your sister-in-law not care about you?"

"My sister-in-law is busy researching incense recipes, so she doesn't have time to take care of me." Xu Nuanyue took out a few copper coins from her purse, and waved them proudly in front of her eyes, "Look, my sister-in-law gave it to me, let me Buy candy yourself!"

After she finished speaking, she asked the pastry shop to buy a bunch of candied haws and handed it to Su Jiu, "Hey, I'll treat you to candied haws!"

The two girls licked and ate candied haws, and walked towards the Qinhuai River hand in hand.

Because Xu Nuanyue got acquainted with Su Jiu, she also talked more, "Xiao Jiu, when I was in the mansion, I always thought about the gluten roasted by Mr. Si, and when I came out today, I also wanted to eat his family's gluten." Gluten. I just don’t know where his stall is.”

Su Jiu smiled and pointed not far away, "Look, it's right there!"

On the banks of the Qinhuai River, a tall and thin boy was wearing a green-brown Confucian shirt with patches, and a brand new jacket over it.

He was sitting on the riverside guardrail, with his hands in his sleeves, hunched over, and was concentrating on reading a book.

The two hadn't walked over when they suddenly heard a commotion.

"Boss, how do you sell this gluten?"

I saw seven or eight sleazy teenagers, dressed in school uniforms from prefectural schools, who came from nowhere, standing in front of Si Dushu's booth.

Si Dushu was still staring at the book without raising his head and said, "A string of three Wen coins!"

The teenagers looked at each other, and smiled maliciously, "Boss, we are students. We have no money and are very poor. Can't you make it cheaper? It's best for free. What do you think?"

"Students have to pay too!" Si Dushu flipped through the pages of the book, "Students can eat for free when they go to restaurants? They have to pay money when they go to brothels, otherwise they are prostitutes for nothing. You can be poor when you are young. Yes, but you can’t use being poor as an excuse to go whoring for nothing, otherwise people who are poor and short-sighted will be poor for the rest of their lives.”

He was talking to himself, completely oblivious to the angry expressions of the teenagers.

He was still turning the pages of the book, when a few teenagers scolded his mother, threw away the gluten in their hands, and suddenly kicked his booth over!
Si Dushu came back to his senses, paled with fright, and quickly put on a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Masters, gentlemen, I was talking too much just now, everyone, don't take offense, don't take offense!"

"Hmph, it's your blessing that we eat your gluten as a reward, and you still dare to take money from us! Hit me and beat him to death!"

The leading young man rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward with a look of anger on his face!

Sidusu hugs his head and runs away!
Before he could run a few steps, someone grabbed him by the collar and punched him in the face!

Those teenagers were gangsters who wandered around in the market, and they shot without seriousness. During the tearing, Si Dushu's new jacket was torn, and countless cotton wadding was flying all over the sky.
