Chapter 76 - 76 Timely Help
76 Timely Help
“Fourth sister, we didn’t steal anything.”
Su Xue’s face had an additional touch of sorrow. She looked at her fifth sister, and muttered in a low voice, “Fifth sister, is this important? The truth is not important. If others say we stole it, then we did.”
“But we didn’t steal it. We didn’t do anything wrong.”
“Our poverty and suffering is the original fault.” If they did not have to worry about food and clothing, would He Xiaomei and the others still frame them?”
Fifth sister Su quickly understood. “Just like how no one will say that Cao Jun stole things!”
Su Xue did not say a word, but tightly clutched the last food ticket in her hand. These days, the two of them had been scrimping and eating only one meal a day. They were afraid that their big sister would not let them study immediately if she remembered, so they did not even dare to go home.
The last food ticket was about to be used up, and she had to go home.
“Fifth sister, let’s pack up and go home after school in the afternoon!” Su Xue’s tone was sorrowful and desperate.
“Okay, I’ll listen to you, fourth sister.”
The tears in fifth sister Su’s eyes finally gushed out. She lowered her head, not daring to let others see her weak and crying appearance. She tried her best to hide it, not even daring to cry out loud.
Only the tall young man standing in front of the line could hear the conversation between the sisters clearly.
At this time, fifth sister Su’s cries made the young man feel as if a knife was cutting into his heart. Those tears seemed to be dripping on his heart, each drop carrying a burning heat.
“Sheng Nian.”
Cao Jun, who was in the other line, shouted at the young man. The young man’s body was stiff, and he stood still without turning his head.
Just as Zhao Yuan was instigating He Xiaomei to report the incident to the teacher, the cla.s.s teacher, Mr. Liu, strode over with a smile on his face. The students who were lining up and eating in the cafeteria looked over curiously.
Behind Mr. Liu was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. Her bright smile and overly beautiful eyes left a deep impression on people. They might even subconsciously ignore her simple clothes.
“Su Xue, fifth sister Su, your family is here to see you.” Mr. Liu was happy from the bottom of his heart.
Ever since he heard that Su Xue and fifth sister Su’s family did not allow them to study, he had been so worried that he could not sleep well. These two students were too talented in studying. It would be a pity if they did not study.
He was preparing to make a home visit when their family came.
On the way there, Mr. Liu had said a lot of things and was surprised to find out that their family had changed their minds. She supported Su Xue and fifth sister Su to continue studying and get into university.
When Su Xue heard that someone had come, she knew that it must be her big sister. She did not hide and pulled her fifth sister out of the crowd. When she saw that the person who came was actually her third sister, she was suddenly stunned.
“Third sister? How do you have time to come over?” It was the busiest time in the village.
Fifth sister Su sniffled and pretended to be strong as she asked, “Third sister, are you here to take us home?”
Su Xiu was all smiles. “No, I’m here to bring you some food.”
She remembered her big sister’s instructions that she had to pa.s.s the things to her sister when there was someone around, so she immediately took out the cake and wheat milk essence from the basket. As soon as the cake was taken out, everyone’s nose was filled with its sweet taste.
The brown rice and cornbread in the cafeteria could not compare to the cake and immediately made people lose their appet.i.te.
Not to mention, there were also many people who could not afford to eat wheat milk essence. That was a good thing, and only during the new year and other festivals would they get some from the relatives. However, only the elderly or children had the chance to eat such good food.
They were already half-grown adults and rarely had the chance to eat it.
