Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man Chapter 61 – 61 Being Looked Down Upon

61 Being Looked Down Upon

However, except for her beautiful eyes, Su Xiu’s clothes were also patched.

When she entered the supply and marketing cooperative, she attracted strange looks from others.

The two sisters stood before the hardware counter for a long time. The salesperson in her twenties was busy knitting and didn’t even look at her.

This kind of silent contempt was the most unbearable.

“Hello, do you have locks and zippers for sale?” Su Wen asked.

The knitting salesgirl looked at Su Wen impatiently, especially when she saw Su Xiu’s decolored and patched clothes. She gave her a disdainful look.

Su Wen couldn’t help but feel angry. “I’m asking you a question. If you have it, we’d like to buy some. If not, we won’t disturb you.”

“Do you have an industrial ticket?” The salesgirl finally opened her mouth arrogantly.

“No, but I remember that small things like locks and zippers don’t require tickets,” Su Wen clearly remembered that in the 1980s, the country’s control over tickets had gradually disappeared.

Unless it was a large item, the locks, and zippers were considered small items and did not require a ticket.

They would just need to pay to get them.

The salesgirl’s attitude immediately changed when she heard that Su Wen had no tickets. It was as if she had been holding back all this while. Now that she knew Su Wen didn’t have a ticket, she no longer had to be polite.

“You want to buy things without tickets? Hurry up and leave.”

Su Xiu stood at the side. Her face was pale, and her beautiful eyes filled with tears.

She felt that she had embarrassed her elder sister and caused her to be looked down upon. Su Xiu felt incredibly guilty. She felt that her elder sister was right.

They were too useless and had dragged their big sister down.

“What are you crying for?” Su Wen got angry when she saw her like this and pinched Su Xiu hard. “I’m telling you, this is not your fault. Next time, if you encounter such a snob, you can slap her to death.”

Su Wen didn’t lower her voice when she spoke, so everyone around her heard her.

“What are you saying? I dare you to say that again! I’m going to tear your stinky mouth apart,” The salesgirl pointed at Su Wen’s nose with the bamboo stick in her hand and scolded her arrogantly, “why don’t you look where you are? Don’t you know how poor you look?”

Su Wen wasn’t scared! She was being bullied. She would end up like Su Xiu if she didn’t fight back. She also wanted to use this opportunity to help Su Xiu regain her confidence.

“I said you’re looking down on me? What’s wrong? Don’t you think it’s enough and want to hear more?” Su Wen sneered and questioned, “is this your shop? Do I need to give you a ticket if you said it needs one?”

If she were to back down even a little today, Su Xiu would never be able to escape the tragic fate in the original novel.

“I…” The salesgirl’s face turned red. She could get such a good job because of her family’s connections. She got in through the back door. Since she started working, no colleague had ever dared to have a conflict with her.

She had already placed herself in a high position and had forgotten who she was.

Now that Su Wen had asked, she almost blurted out that it was her family’s.

Seeing her like this, Su Wen could guess what was behind this. Hence, she took advantage of the situation and pursued it.

“You take the state’s salary and help our people and the proletariat. You, on the other hand, raised your chin and acted proud just because we don’t wear good clothes? You deliberately picked at the patches on our clothes? We don’t need a ticket, but you’re deliberately making things difficult for me?”

The other customers deeply understood Su Wen’s words. When they had to come to buy things, they had to smile and be careful every time. They feared that the salesperson would say there was no stock and not sell it to them. They were also afraid that they would ask for tickets.

They were all old farmers, so how could they have industrial tickets? If this girl hadn’t said it aloud today, they would have still been deceived!

The crowd was immediately enraged.

“You’re right.” A young man echoed loudly and agreed, “This comrade is right. We’re all glorious working people. We stand tall and straight and are not afraid of losing face.”

Su Wen looked grateful to the man who spoke up for justice. When she saw what the other person looked like, she was speechless.

How dare the man claim he is a working person! Black leather shoes, a white shirt, and the most popular branded watch on his hand had exposed his identity. He was gentlemanly, and his skin was even fairer than a woman’s. How did he look like someone who had done farm work?

The other party seemed to have sensed Su Wen’s gaze and guiltily looked away.

However, Su Wen quickly shifted her attention to the female salesgirl. When she stared at someone calmly, her heavy gaze would make it hard for one to breathe.

“I think you’re very capitalist.” She simply accused her.
