Transmigrated as My Aunt in the 70s

Chapter 499: Chapter 492: Shameless

Sisi really wasn’t in the mood to care about that couple’s lovey-dovey antics, she just wanted to rush back and let Du Du finish his milk, and change her clothes by the way.

As for the bracelet and hair clip, they were just items she took out from Space and weren’t too expensive, but of course, that’s relative to her past life. In the present, such exquisite accessories wouldn’t be cheap.

That evening, when Tian Xinhua came back, she mentioned Shen Baozhu’s issue, "Brother Xin Hua, I always find this Shen Baozhu very strange. I’ve never met her before, why is she targeting me the moment she arrived? I suspect someone might have sent her here?"

"Who would send such a fool here? She wouldn’t be of any use," Sisi muttered to herself.

Tian Xinhua didn’t expect such a character to appear in Ah Nan’s school, he pondered for a moment then said: "I’ll have someone look into this, Ah Nan, you should be more cautious!"

"Alright, got it." Sisi didn’t care much, to her, Shen Baozhu really wasn’t worth worrying about.

The next day when going to work, Sisi saw Shen Baozhu and specifically reminded her again: "Teacher Shen, it’s the first day, let me remind you once more, those things are worth 1568 yuan."

After speaking, Sisi took her painting supplies and went to the classroom to teach, while Liu Tielan on the side watched gleefully and loudly said to the teacher next to her, "We have such a deceitful person in the office, everyone better secure their stuff in their drawers."

"Mr. Liu, I didn’t take Mr. He’s things," Shen Baozhu argued with red eyes.

Liu Tielan spread her hands and said: "Oh, Teacher Shen, don’t look at me like that, I’m going to get goosebumps."

"Liu Tielan, stop bullying Baozhu just because you’re bigger!"

Wang Shimin, who had just returned from class, saw his crush standing in front of Liu Tielan crying and got infuriated, running over in a fury.

"It’s not like that, Teacher Wang, you got it wrong."

Shen Baozhu didn’t expect Wang Shimin to be so impulsive and somewhat regretted getting too close to him in the past. He had no money, no power, no looks; if not for him being always at her beck and call, Shen Baozhu really didn’t want to feign politeness with him.

"Wang Shimin, both your brain and eyes not functioning well? Me, bullying Shen Baozhu? Ugh, I would rather not soil my hands!"

Liu Tielan showed off her large fists to Wang Shimin, scaring him into stepping back, while Shen Baozhu looked down with disdain.

The other teachers went on with their own business, not bothering with their personal issues; they were obviously aware of the feud between Liu Tielan and Wang Shimin.

Speaking of Liu Yinlan, they had all seen her, a pretty and simple girl, a hundred times better than the pretentious Shen Baozhu. Only Teacher Wang treasured her like a pearl, and would surely regret it later.

On the third day, Shen Baozhu still hadn’t returned the bracelet and the hair clip, and didn’t mention the money either. Sisi didn’t waste words with her and directly went to Principal Gu to report this.

Principal Gu, cunning and experienced, could clearly see Shen Baozhu’s character, and was indeed very irritated by her, which degraded the school’s ethos. Thus, without asking further, he agreed directly to deduct twenty yuan from Shen Baozhu’s salary each month and add it to Sisi’s.

"Thank you, Principal Gu. When do you have time to come over to my house? My grandpa said the chess game from last time is still unfinished!" Sisi said with a smile.

Principal Gu also replied cheerily, "I’ll go today. Let your grandma cook some sweet and sour pork for me."

It turns out Principal Gu and the Old Man were acquaintances gained from not fighting when they met in the park during Tai Chi, though one was literate and the other was a martial artist, they got along quite well. Since Principal Gu was a bachelor, the Old Man often invited this new friend over for meals, which is how he found out that he was actually the principal of Sisi’s school.

Shen Baozhu was relieved that Sisi didn’t come to ask her for the bracelet money, feeling that He Sisi was just a paper tiger—all bark and no bite.

Liu Tielan, however, was anxious and couldn’t help but ask Sisi quietly. Sisi had a good impression of this bold and generous girl, feeling that she was somewhat similar in character to her good friend Shangguan Feifei.

"Don’t worry, you’ll know when we get our salary at the end of the month."

As soon as Liu Tielan heard this, she understood and gave Sisi a thumbs up, feeling even more delighted and looking forward to the end of the month!

In the following days, Shen Baozhu began to flutter about like a butterfly again, in high spirits, occasionally humming some English songs, and sometimes sending Sisi a few provocative glances.

Sisi didn’t mind. Sing, laugh, you only have half a month to enjoy your triumph!

The next afternoon, with no classes, Sisi pushed Du Du to the park to enjoy the sun; Mrs. Wu was also there with Niu Niu, and the two kids started playing as soon as they met.

Mrs. Wu was there to bid farewell to Sisi, "Sisi, we’re going back to Capital City the day after tomorrow. Next time, we’ll have to meet in Capital City."

Mrs. Wu felt somewhat reluctant. She truly liked Sisi, a friend regardless of the age difference, far more than the sisters Shen Mingzhu.

"I don’t know when I’ll be able to visit Capital City. When will you come back to Huang Yuan, Granny Wu?" Sisi felt reluctant too.

Mrs. Wu shook her head; if it weren’t for her grandson being here, she really didn’t want to come and see Shen Mingzhu.

With this thought, Mrs. Wu reminded her, "Sisi, I’m not making a joke, my daughter-in-law Shen Mingzhu is not a good person. If she comes to see you, you don’t need to bother with her, and don’t worry about giving me face."

Sisi didn’t like Shen Mingzhu anyway, but she was touched that Mrs. Wu could say such a thing, and she nodded without asking more about Shen Mingzhu, knowing it was hard for Mrs. Wu, who valued her dignity, to say even this.

When Mrs. Wu left, Sisi gave her a jar of medicinal wine infused with ginseng from her Space, without adding Jade Liquid. Though its effect was not as good as Qiong Wine, it was still much better than regular medicinal wine.

Sisi didn’t expect Shen Mingzhu to act so quickly. The day after Mrs. Wu left, she showed up at her door.

When Shen Mingzhu arrived, Sisi just happened to be at home, making one suspect she timed it just so. Although she disliked this woman, a visitor is a guest after all, so Sisi still hosted her.

Shen Mingzhu talked about this and that, praising the decoration at Sisi’s house and then admiring how adorable Du Du was; nothing but pleasantries, none of it sincere.

"Mr. Shen, may I ask why you have come today?" Sisi couldn’t hold back anymore and asked directly.

"Oh, nothing much, I just feel a connection with you, Sisi, and wanted to be friends," Shen Mingzhu answered with a smile.

It’s hard to slap a smiling face, and Sisi couldn’t plainly reply ’I don’t want to be friends with you’, so she just forced a few laughs, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Shen Mingzhu didn’t mind, still smiling and continuing to compliment Sisi’s looks, her clothes, her style. Sisi was truly fed up and marveled at Shen Mingzhu’s inability to read the room—couldn’t she see how impatient she was?

Eventually, it was almost dinner time. Sisi deliberately didn’t invite her to stay for dinner, but Granny Zhao felt embarrassed and was about to say something when Sisi quickly interrupted her, "Mr. Shen, you should be going home to cook dinner, right? I won’t keep you."

With that, even thick-skinned Shen Mingzhu couldn’t justify staying any longer. She got up to leave, but still smilingly invited Sisi to go shopping together the next weekend.

Sisi didn’t even think twice before refusing, simply saying she needed to stay home with the kids.
