Chen Qing transmigrated into a period novel, becoming the aunt of a beautiful, strong, and tragic villain.
The 'beautiful and strong' parts were inherent to the villain; the 'trag...
Chapter 150 Maomao Lifts the Cup
The tables and chairs in the slum were arranged in a long row, and on each table an old man asked his daughter-in-law to place a mooncake to add to the festive atmosphere.
"We can eat the mooncakes after we finish our meal. They are just for display now."
"Okay, got it."
Everyone saw that the old man was generous and was willing to cooperate.
The uncle's family was busy running around, and the people in the slum were sitting together chatting and talking. It was very lively. Chen Qing seldom witnessed such a scene, and his heart was inexplicably touched.
“The food is served!!!”
First came the stewed tofu, then the sweet potato vines, fried eggs with black fungus, crispy lotus root, fried eggplant, and finally the braised pork.
The same six dishes, but full to the brim, people at the table still scrambled for the food.
Xiaoyu was the worst at grabbing food. Chen Qing, He Yuan, He Yuxiang and Maomao all picked up food for her, and her bowl soon piled up into a small mountain.
Xiaoyu's eyes rolled around, then she covered her mouth and laughed.
Hehehe~
She is such a happy child~
After taking a bite, Xiaoyu's cheeks became puffy, her eyes sparkled, and her face was full of smiles. Her fair and tender cheeks turned pink, making her look super cute.
Chen Qing felt soft-hearted when he saw this.
I feel that this time the money was well spent!
People in the compound also saw how the two orphaned children lived. Their clothes were clean and their faces were pretty. Many children envied Xiaoyu.
The uncle who was in charge of the meal also raised his glass and said, "It is said that a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. We all come from different places, from all over the world. It is fate that we can live together. I hope everyone can help each other and live a prosperous life."
"good!!!"
Everyone applauded to give him face.
The old man invited everyone to enjoy their meals and not to be polite.
He walked around, saying a few words to each table, and came to Chen Qing's table and said, "Xiao Qing, you have really grown up recently. Live a good life in the future."
"Oh, okay."
Chen Qing saw that the old man's eyes were red and didn't know what to say.
An old man can be quite emotional when he's drunk.
Maomao raised his glass and said, "Uncle, I toast to you!"
The uncle laughed and clinked his glass with his: "Okay, let's have a drink together."
"Good!" Maomao drank it all in one gulp, and then said, "Thank you for the delicious food, uncle. I think it's super delicious, better than the food in state-owned restaurants. I wish you good health and happiness."
The old man was amused by him and said, "Okay, okay."
He stroked Maomao's yellow hair and went to the next table.
Chen Qing was startled by Maomao: "Where did you learn the rules of the drinking table?"
"I saw that the adults were all like this just now." Maomao scratched his face, "Isn't that right?"
Chen Qing gave a thumbs up: "It's just right."
Maomao chuckled and said, "Then I'll toast to my aunt."
"Hahaha, ok." Chen Qing clinked glasses with him.
Maomao knew the rules and lowered his glass a little.
Chen Qing was stunned.
They both drank the boiled water in one gulp.
Maomao prompted again: "I wish my aunt to have delicious food every day, be healthy, be happy, and get whatever she likes!"
"Okay, you should also grow up happily." Chen Qing walked up to him and rubbed his face.
Xiaoyu was very angry.
So annoying.
Maomao always competes with her for her aunt.
Fortunately, he went back tonight!
Maomao is like a fish in water in crowded places. When someone teases him, he will raise his glass and say a bunch of nice things, becoming the most popular child in the whole audience.
Everyone was very satisfied with the food in the slum. After eating, they took their own bowls back to wash, and Chen Qing accepted it.
He Yuan went to work in the afternoon and went to a meeting with Deputy Director Mao. On the way, they chatted for a rare time, and they talked about Mao Mao: "He is very eloquent."
With his current eloquence, he will be able to succeed in whatever he does in the future.
Mao Jianguo also didn't understand how children grew up.
His eloquence is average.
Talia is even more of a saw-mouthed gourd.
As a result, the two of them gave birth to a cheeky Mao Mao.
"I wasn't that smart before."
He was enthusiastic before, but his brain was slow to react. Now he is like a veteran.
He would have to ask the kid about it tonight.
Let him learn from you too if he is your father!
He has suffered so much because of this mouth of his.
The two were originally going to the office building for a meeting, but the machinery factory held a movie screening and many people came, so the two took a long detour before going to the meeting.
Chen Qing in the office building also squinted hard, trying to see what the movie was about, but all he could see was a bunch of heads.
She lay on the railing on the second floor, feeling the gentle breeze, and many people looked at her secretly.
The beauty is like fine jade, with overwhelming advantages. Her beauty is overwhelming and makes many people amazed.
The factory beauty is worthy of her reputation!
Recently everyone has been talking about the people in the art troupe. They think they are better looking than Chen Qingmei. That would be so great.
Can she really be prettier than Chen Qing?
Everyone who saw Chen Qing in person was skeptical.
Chen Qing's eyes were hurt by the sun, so he went downstairs and took a detour to the workshop to check.
The workers in the workshop were not in high spirits at work and gathered in groups of three or four to chat. Chen Qing did not deduct points from them harshly. He just gave them a few reminders and then went to the next workshop.
After she finished the examination, she took a detour back to the office and ran into a group of people from the research institute.
Mao Jianguo greeted politely: "Team Leader Chen."
He Yuan nodded at her: "Team Leader Chen."
Chen Qing nodded to Mao Jianguo, then glared at He Yuan. Then he smiled at everyone and walked towards the factory committee.
Mao Jianguo nudged He Yuan with his elbow and asked slyly, "What's your relationship with Chen Qing?"
Let’s get together soon.
He begged!
He Yuan: “Neighborhood.”
She said she would think about it.
Then he would wait.
There's no rush.
Mao Jianguo looked disgusted: "It's useless!"
He Yuan glanced at him coldly and was about to speak when Mao Jianguo immediately apologized: "I was wrong."
This kid holds a grudge!
Revenge is even more inappropriate.
He doesn't want to be targeted!
"We still have to go to Chen Qing's house together tonight, right?"
He Yuan nodded and let him go for the time being.
Mao Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief, but with a lot of questions in his mind, he visited Chen Qing's home in the evening with a box of mooncakes.
It's really lively here in the family compound.
Mao Jianguo entered Chen Qing's house, caught Mao Mao running wildly, frowned and scolded: "Can you be a little polite!"
This was Chen Qing's home after all, and he was running around the yard with a rope in his hand. It looked so inappropriate. Before, he had seen Maomao and Xiaoyu sitting and playing together, but he didn't expect this boy to be so naughty!
Maomao was stunned: "What? I'm just running."
"Look at how many things you bumped into. You even knocked over two stools."
Mao Jianguo couldn't suppress his violent temper.
Maomao felt even more aggrieved: "Then I'll just pick it up later. Auntie didn't mean to me."
"Your aunt is just being polite to you."
"No, my aunt doesn't. She likes me very much!"
