Chapter 3: Mother and Son with Ulterior Motives
Su Keke grabbed Tian Peipei's hand and involuntarily used a little strength, she lowered her head and whispered in her friend's ear: "Pepe, I hate these two people very much, can you help me send them away?" β
Zhao Su and his mother came from a remote rural area, because their biological father died, so they came to Donghai City to join their uncle. Zhao Su's uncle is a small leader in Donghai City, although he hates this mother and son who fight the autumn wind, but he has to take care of them for the sake of face.
With the help of his uncle, Zhao Su entered Donghai Middle School, and his mother Zhang Cuihua also found a job pasting paper boxes, which can be regarded as settling down in Donghai City.
The parents of the students at Donghai Middle School were either employees of the Dongfeng factory of a large enterprise or cadres working in the government, and although everyone was not wealthy at that time, farmers like Zhao Su could not fit into this group.
It's not that the students looked down on the peasants, the social status of the peasants was very high at that time, Zhao Su not only had poor grades, but also was very obscene, and in him, not only did he not have the loyalty of the peasants, but also a little more cunning. Therefore, his classmates did not like him.
When the Games were held last year, when Zhao Su was participating in a long-distance running competition, the cloth shoes on his feet fell off in the violent running, which made him ridiculed by everyone.
Zhao Su's face was delicate, he was a boy after all, in the face of the undisguised ridicule of his classmates, his face was flushed, his lips were sobbing but he couldn't speak, and finally picked up his shoes and limped to the side.
At that time, Su Keke was also among the classmates watching the excitement, and Zhao Su's appearance made her feel very pitiful. The next day, Su Keke took a pair of his father's old sneakers and gave them to Zhao Su. At that time, Su Keke's idea was very simple, anyway, now that his father no longer wears these shoes, instead of leaving the shoes idle, it is better to help those who need them.
She didn't know that her kind act made Zhao Su's mother and son feel that there was an opportunity. They have an unstable foothold in Donghai City, and if they can find a beautiful city girl like Su Keke as their daughter-in-law, it will be of great help to the family.
With such an idea, Zhang Cuihua often makes some rural snacks and asks Zhao Su to bring Su Keke to create an opportunity for the two of them to get along.
Reliving a life, Su Keke has already figured out that the mother and son are close to their own purpose, and she will not let their tricks succeed again.
Tian Peipei has long been unaccustomed to Zhao Su, she is not as simple as Su Keke, and she has persuaded Su Keke several times to keep her away from Zhao Su's mother and son. It's a pity that Su Keke was too naΓ―ve before, and only felt that this was a normal exchange between classmates, and he couldn't listen to it at all.
Now Su Keke asked Tian Peipei to help get rid of Zhao Su, which was in Tian Peipei's mind, she patted Su Keke's hand comfortingly, and pulled her to meet Zhao Su's mother and son.
Seeing these two generous and beautiful city girls, the jealousy in Zhang Cuihua's eyes flashed, and then she put on a flattering smile, "Su Keke, have you come to school?" β
Su Keke nodded lightly, and did not greet her aunt affectionately as before. Su Keke's attitude made Zhang Cuihua a little unsure of her attitude, so she could only continue to say with a shy face: "I made some potato cakes, thinking that you should like to eat them, so I brought them to you." β
Zhao Su, who was beside Zhang Cuihua, raised his head, quickly glanced at Su Keke, lowered his head again, he stretched out his hand and handed Su Keke an aluminum lunch box.
It was that glance just now, in a short period of time, Su Keke saw greed in Zhao Su's eyes.
"Oops, what's stuck to this lunch box?" Tian Peipei did not forget her mission, she showed a disgusted expression, and said exaggeratedly pointing to the lunch box.
At this time, it was the time to go to school, and Tian Peipei's voice immediately attracted many classmates to come over. Everyone's eyes looked at the lunch box, and they saw that it was black and I didn't know what was on it.
In fact, after the aluminum lunch box is used, it will be worn and gray, but the one that Zhao Su is holding is not just an old problem, but very dirty.
This starts with the hygiene habits of Zhao Su's mother and son, they came from the countryside, and the water they used to use was picked up by the river, so they have always been sparing, and the cleanliness of the items is not very high. Although they live in the city now, the hygiene habits of Zhao Su's mother and son have not changed.
The classmates looked at the dirty lunch box with strange eyes, everyone's living conditions were good, and at first glance they saw such a disgusting thing, and they inevitably had a few words.
"Is this a lunch box? Why is it so dirty? β
"Like, who can eat it with it?"
Facing everyone's disdainful gaze and discussion, Zhao Su couldn't stay any longer, he stuffed the lunch box into Zhang Cuihua's hand and left with a red face.
Although Zhang Cuihua's face was a little unbearable, in the end it was thicker than her son's skin, but she still didn't forget the purpose of her coming, she looked at Su Keke with her eyes, showed pitiful eyes, and muttered in a low voice: "Su Keke, this lunch box is not dirty at all, but the black mark on it can't be washed off!" β
Zhang Cuihua hoped that Su Keke would stand up for her as before, take the lunch box, and thank her with a smile. In this way, she can justifiably let her son follow her into school and make their relationship more solid.
It's a pity that Su Keke didn't laugh, but said very seriously: "Auntie, I won't ask for your things." As for the sneakers that were given to Zhao Su, my father didn't wear them, and if I didn't give them to Zhao Su, I would throw them away. β
"So, you don't have to come to me again for this little thing, and don't bring me anything. This is easy to cause misunderstanding among students. Su Keke's voice was clear, and the classmates all laughed when they heard what she said.
It turned out to be for a pair of old shoes, which made this rural aunt block the school gate again and again. This aunt often said behind her back that Su Keke liked their family Zhao Su, but her classmates didn't believe it, because the two of them were very different in terms of background and family.
But everyone often sees Su Keke and Zhao Su walking together, so they are skeptical of Zhang Cuihua's statement. Now that Su Keke made it clear in front of everyone, this solved the doubts of the classmates, it turned out that everything was just wishful thinking on the part of Zhao Su's mother and son.
Tian Peipei looked at her classmates, felt that the heat was almost over, and said loudly: "Okay, Su Keke, let's go to class!" β
Tian Peipei was generous and hearty, and she was very authoritative among her classmates, and with her words, everyone walked away in twos and threes.
"This kind of dirty thing, are you embarrassed to take it out and give it away?" A boy with glasses shook his head and said that not far from him, Zhao Su was standing under a big tree.
Zhao Su heard the boy's words, and also heard the ridicule of the others, he lowered his head, and his fingers dug deep into the bark.
All this mockery and embarrassment were brought to him by Su Keke, and one day, he would make Su Keke cry and beg him!
