Gu Qingmeng didn't know when Qi Zheng would be able to come back. After hanging up the phone, she called her grandfather again and mentioned the special medicine. Her grandfather would have someone send it over once he found it.
She asked her grandfather to investigate the Tian family, but she got the news that the Tian family was sent to the northwest because of hiding the banned books, and the people who were punished were all insignificant.
It’s difficult to find out who was the mastermind. Maybe Tian Zhixin himself doesn’t know who ordered him to do so?
"My dear, you're getting married next month. I'm sorry that Grandpa can't go. Remember to take some photos for your uncle to bring back. I'll give you the dowry your grandma left for you when you come back."
Fu Chuanshuo was very sorry that he could not attend Gu Qingmeng's wedding, because when he went to the underworld to see his daughter and wife, he didn't know how to describe his granddaughter's wedding.
She married a country boy whom he had never met. Although his sons said he was a good guy, they were still worried because they hadn't seen him in person?
"Okay, I'll take a lot of photos and bring them back to you. I'll have my uncle take some wild ginseng back so Grandpa can remember to eat it. I got another one here, but it's still young. Next time, I'll have my uncle bring it back to you and stew it with chicken."
Gu Qingmeng reminded him a few more words to take care of his health before hanging up the phone. She felt a little guilty for a moment. Her grandfather still had to worry about her at such an old age!
Should I take Pei Xinghe back home after the Lunar New Year? Let Grandpa see him. The old man won't feel at ease without seeing him.
After paying the phone bill, Gu Qingmeng went to the supply and marketing cooperative. Two phone calls cost more than ten yuan. No wonder almost no one made phone calls in that era. The only things they did were writing letters or sending telegrams.
The money from the phone call was enough to buy a train ticket back to Beijing, which meant she was not short of money.
"Mengmeng, come quickly. My mother told me you wanted to buy some fabric. It just so happens that the new fabric arrived yesterday and is just being displayed today."
Before Gu Qingmeng arrived, Pei Xiuzhen had already taken out the cloth and was waiting. Since it was not a festival, there were not many people in the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Sister Xiuzhen, look what I brought you! This is some spicy cabbage I pickled myself, and some salted duck eggs to go with the porridge. It goes really well with rice."
Gu Qingmeng smiled and took out the things from the backpack. As soon as the kimchi was taken out, the unique smell of pickled vegetables hit her taste buds, and she began to drool unconsciously.
"Mengmeng's cooking is excellent. The kimchi is sour and spicy, and the salted duck eggs are not too salty and are all oozing with oil. The fact that our fourth son was able to marry you must have been a good deed in his previous life."
Zhang Shuqin was happy to see her daughter-in-law and daughter getting along so well. Such a good girl was lucky enough to be the fourth son of her family! She would have to be more caring towards her in the future. The fourth son was not a careful person, so she would help to gather some people.
