Chapter 353: Chapter 353: You Haven’t Bought the Hair Tie Yet, Right?

Zhou Siyu was curious and wanted to have a look, but Shen Mianmian stuffed it directly into her pocket.

She rolled her eyes, who was eager to see?

In those days, everyone wore big shorts, and no one wore such small shorts. In her opinion, it was because they couldn’t afford to buy bigger ones and could only buy such a small amount of fabric.

When she couldn’t find any money on Shen Mianmian, Zhou Lanfang’s temper flared up. If it weren’t for the fact that the wretched girl was now particularly good at tattling, she would have dragged the little wild breed over for a beating.

The more she looked at Shen Mianmian, the more annoyed she became, wishing she could stab her to death with her eyes.

"Hurry up and go wash your dirty clothes, don’t be an eyesore here."

"Brown sugar..."

Shen Mianmian looked at the brown sugar in Zhou Lanfang’s hand, wanting to get it, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Zhou Lanfang revealed a face full of sarcasm.

"Brown sugar? What brown sugar? You treat yourself like a precious item over a trifle incident?"

Still want brown sugar, why don’t you go die?

Knowing full-well Zhou Lanfang’s character, Shen Mianmian didn’t argue with her any further. She turned and entered the room, placing the sanitary pad on the bed before grabbing a washbasin to do the laundry.

Seeing this, Zhou Siyu quickly finished the last bit of porridge in her bowl. Seeing that Shen Mianmian was still outside washing clothes, she quietly ran back to the room. She spotted the black bag that Shen Mianmian had brought back, lying on the bed, tore open the bag, and started to rummage through it.

The triangle underwear had been taken by Shen Mianmian for washing, leaving only a pile of small cotton pieces on the bed. She spread one out and looked at it for a while, not sure what it was for.

It seemed a bit like insoles, so she tried placing them into her shoes and found they fit quite well.

But this stuff wasn’t needed in the current weather.

Feeling somewhat disappointed, she threw the cotton pieces back into the bag, then searched for a while longer, not finding a single hair tie.

It infuriated her.

She had already turned the room upside down during the day but hadn’t found where Shen Mianmian had put the hair tie, thinking that she hadn’t bought it.

Not bringing back a hair tie today meant that tomorrow would be the deadline to turn them in. Would hair ties fall from the sky?

No, that couldn’t be right. Shen Mianmian didn’t have much money on her but had bought so many things; she must have used the money meant for the hair ties, which is why she hadn’t bought them.

She had bought clothes and even brown sugar, surely because she didn’t have enough money, which is why she bought such small shorts.

Zhou Siyu suddenly felt smug. She wanted to see how Shen Mianmian would explain it to so many classmates tomorrow.

To confirm her suspicion, as soon as Shen Mianmian finished washing the clothes and entered the room, she asked, "Sister, do you really not have a single penny on you now?"

Shen Mianmian retorted, "What else?"

The bed was a bit messy, and the black bag had been tampered with, clearly Zhou Siyu had rummaged through the items, but luckily Shen Mianmian had left the hair ties at Lu Siyuan’s place.

Zhou Siyu couldn’t help but laugh a little, her eyes full of schadenfreude.

"You haven’t bought the hair ties yet, have you?"

"Mind your own radish and stop worrying about others," Shen Mianmian shot back at her.

Zhou Siyu was not angry at all; in fact, she was happy. She was even more convinced that Shen Mianmian had spent all the money meant for the hair ties.

There would be a good show to watch tomorrow.

The next day, Zhou Siyu got up early, had breakfast, and then rushed Zhou Lanfang to take her to school.

Since she arrived quite early, there weren’t many students at school. Zhou Siyu went to the restroom, and upon her return, she saw a few girls from other classes waiting excitedly at the classroom door.

Seeing her, their eyes lit up, and they quickly surrounded her, "Zhou Siyu, where’s your sister? Didn’t she come to school with you?"
