Back to the 1970s: Building My Fortune Through Time Trading-Chapter 430: Big Brother Has a Girlfriend

Upon hearing this, Su Wenbing’s face turned even redder, he cleared his throat and began to speak: "You actually know this person."

"I know?"

Su Xiaoxiao was even more shocked. She tried hard to recall everyone she knew around her but couldn’t think of anyone who could become her future sister-in-law.

Suddenly, she thought of something and said incredulously, "Brother, you wouldn’t be getting back together with an ex, would you?"

"No, she’s not." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Su Wenbing quickly shook his head, then said shyly, "You’ll know when you meet her tomorrow. She’s... a really, really good girl."

For her brother, a wooden block, to be enlightened and speak so highly, this girl must be something special.

Su Xiaoxiao thought, becoming more curious about her future sister-in-law.

What kind of fairy could make her straight-laced brother so giddy with love?

Look at him! When talking about his future sister-in-law, his eyes almost floated with pink hearts.

Hiss~

Su Xiaoxiao rubbed the goosebumps on her arm vigorously, "Alright, brother, I’ll come home early tomorrow night and pick up some delicious food from the state-owned restaurant on my way."

"Oh right, help me think of what I should bring as a gift the first time I visit. What do girls usually like?"

Su Xiaoxiao’s first reaction was money; anyway, when others give her gifts like flowers or jewelry, she doesn’t like them. She prefers getting money directly.

But since her brother asked, she had to give some useful advice.

After thinking it over carefully, Su Xiaoxiao spoke, "Why don’t you buy a necklace for your future sister-in-law?"

"A necklace?"

Su Wenbing blushed again, seemingly imagining some kind of picture.

After a while, he spoke somewhat awkwardly, "Alright, help me pick one, and I’ll give you the money."

"Brother, we’re siblings, why are you being so formal with me? I’ll gift the necklace for sister-in-law."

"How can that be right?"

Su Wenbing started to dig money out of his pocket.

He stuffed all the money in his pocket into Su Xiaoxiao’s hands, "Take it first, if it’s not enough, I’ll give you more later."

Su Xiaoxiao saw that there were at least twenty or thirty yuan here.

Usually, Brother gives most of his salary to the family, leaving a few yuan for pocket money. It’s not easy for him to save this much.

She picked out a large banknote and gave the rest back to Su Wenbing, "Brother, this one is enough, just wait for it."

"Well, thank you then."

"We’re family, brother, don’t be so formal with me."

Saying this, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered a question, "Brother, how did the election in your workshop go? Did you get elected?"

"I got elected."

Su Wenbing appeared calm at this moment.

"What? That’s great!"

Su Xiaoxiao, realizing this, was even more excited than when she was elected as workshop director, jumping high.

"Brother, you’re awesome!"

"Come on, let’s go to the state-owned restaurant and buy some delicious food. Today is a good day, we must celebrate."

"No need to spend so much, it’s not such a big deal."

Su Wenbing cherished money, not wanting to waste it, and immediately refused.

"Brother, you’re a director now. How can you still be so stingy? You shouldn’t be like this with your future sister-in-law. Women don’t like stingy men."

Unable to argue with her, Su Wenbing could only follow her to the state-owned restaurant to buy food.

Su Xiaoxiao waved her small hand and directly bought five dishes and a soup.

Today was indeed a great day of double happiness, must celebrate well.

The two of them carried a pile of dishes out of the state-owned restaurant, and just as they stepped out, Su Xiaoxiao met two acquaintances.

One had a pointy face like a monkey and the other was tall and burly, who else could they be but Skinny and Liu Dadan?

The two of them also noticed them at that moment and were about to approach excitedly.

Su Wenbing looked at the pair, sensing they weren’t good people, and with a vigilant face, asked, "Who are you? What do you want? I’m telling you, don’t mess around, or else..."

Before he could finish, Su Xiaoxiao directly interrupted to cast a spell on her brother, "Brother, these are my friends, just look a bit scruffy, not bad people."

Skinny, Liu Dadan: "..."

"Comrade Su, where have you been these days? We’ve been looking for you everywhere."

The pair greeted Su Xiaoxiao warmly.

Recently, they’ve run out of goods to sell, can’t make money, and are terribly anxious, longing for that sweet, sweet cash.

Upon hearing today that Su Xiaoxiao was back, they immediately came over to look for her.

They grinned widely, smiling obsequiously, "Comrade Su, this must be our brother, right? Looks like quite a talent."

Su Wenbing’s face turned dark, "Who is your brother? Don’t call me randomly."

He understood now that these two must have an interest in his precious sister.

Fortunately, the other two didn’t know his thoughts, otherwise, they’d swear to the sky—they truly only wanted money and not the person.

Su Xiaoxiao perceived her brother’s hostility towards them, puzzled.

Skinny squeezed his eyebrows and winked at her, "Comrade Su, we have important business to discuss with you. Can you come over for a moment?"

Upon hearing it, Su Wenbing glanced at them expressionlessly, his gaze cold like looking at unpardonable criminals.

Skinny touched his neck; did he say something wrong again?

Su Xiaoxiao knew they were here to get goods from her and told her brother to head to the state-owned restaurant to order dishes first; she’d come soon.

Leaving his delicate sister with two drifters, Su Wenbing felt immensely uneasy.

"Brother, don’t worry, it’s a public street, they can’t do anything to me. Plus, this isn’t the first time they’re coming for business. Look carefully."

Hearing this, Su Wenbing scrutinized them; he finally recognized them. It seemed he had seen them before.

He then felt somewhat reassured, "Alright, you be careful, I’ll be back soon."

Skinny, Liu Dadan: "..."

They didn’t intend to look like bad guys, but appearances are innate, there wasn’t much they could do about it.

Once Su Wenbing reluctantly left, they both sighed in relief; truly, Brother Su was intimidating.

"So, what kind of goods are you looking to get from me?"

Skinny scratched his head, "Comrade Su, no, Sister Su, how many sewing machines do you have left? We want them all."

This pair was making a bold demand, all of them? Such an appetite! She recalled hearing from the sewing machine boss that there’s at least ten thousand in stock. The question was whether they could afford it.

"Are you sure?"

Su Xiaoxiao saw through it but didn’t expose them, asking in agreement.

The pair nodded vigorously, "No problem."

They figured Su Xiaoxiao only had a few hundred at most, and they could handle that, wanting to monopolize the black market sewing machine channel.

Just as they thought that, Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile and held out five fingers, "I have at least this many, if you want them all, I’ll drop five yuan off each."
