"Auntie, take these things. They are a token of my appreciation."
Although Zhong Meixian often said harsh words and had a picky and stubborn personality, she was not the kind of person who would be unable to walk when she saw something.
The things Luo Tian mentioned were a bit expensive for her, so Zhong Meixian was embarrassed to accept them. "No, I can't have them."
Luo Tian immediately said, "Auntie, are you dissatisfied with the fact that I didn't bring enough things?"
Zhong Meixian waved her hand, "No, it's not."
She said "No," and Luo Tian immediately stuffed the thing into her hand, "Since it's not, then Auntie, please accept it."
"Auntie, you are Comrade Gu's mother, right?"
Zhong Meixian was carrying something that felt heavy, so she smiled and nodded, "Yes, Yan Li is my son."
"Well, girl, I'll get you a stool."
The more gifts you bring, the less blame you will get. Just because Luo Tian brought so many things, Zhong Meixian couldn't hate Luo Tian at all.
What's more, Luo Tian came to thank someone for saving her life, not for her son. This made Zhong Meixian feel much more at ease, so she treated Luo Tian more affectionately.
Zhong Meixian quickly brought out a small stool for Luo Tian to sit on.
And said, "Girl, would you like some water?"
"I'll pour you a glass of sugar water!"
Luo Tian immediately shook her head and took Zhong Meixian's hand to ask her to sit down as well. "Auntie, please sit down. Don't worry about me. I'm not thirsty."
After Zhong Meixian sat down, Luo Tian's eyes fell on the basin of unwashed clothes by the well, "Auntie, are you washing clothes?"
"Am I delaying your work by sitting here?"
She was about to get up and said, "Auntie, let me help you wash!"
How could Zhong Meixian let her help with the laundry?
He quickly grabbed her arm and asked, "How can I let you help wash this?"
"No, no, please sit down, sit down quickly."
Luo Tian didn't insist, but still said, "What's the big deal, Auntie? Comrade Gu is my lifesaver. You are Comrade Gu's mother, and you are also my adopted mother. It's nothing for me to help you wash clothes!"
Zhong Meixian was deeply moved when she heard Luo Tian's words. She held Luo Tian's hand and praised her sincerely, "You are a good child."
"But there's really no need. Yan Li saved you just by chance. It's not a big favor."
Then Zhong Meixian began to ask Luo Tian, "Girl, where are you from?"
"Why did you come to such a remote place like ours alone?"
"Are your family members at ease?"
When Zhong Meixian asked about Luo Tian's family, Luo Tian's bright eyes dimmed. "My parents are at home. I have two older brothers... and a sister."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and changed the subject, "Is Comrade Gu serving in the army?"
"I saw him wearing a military uniform that day."
Even without saying anything, Gu Yanli's olive green outfit was particularly eye-catching among the crowd.
What's more, Gu Yanli is her savior, which makes it even more eye-catching.
Speaking of Gu Yanli, Zhong Meixian's expression was full of pride, "Well, Yanli is in the army, and now he is the battalion commander."
"Battalion Commander?" Luo Tian's eyes began to sparkle again. "Comrade Gu doesn't look that old to me!"
Speaking of age, Zhong Meixian was even more proud. "Yes, Yan Li is only 26 years old this year."
Luo Tian praised Zhong Meixian, "Auntie, you are really good at education. Comrade Gu is so young and has achieved such great success."
She gave Zhong Meixian a thumbs up and said, "Auntie, as a mother, you have made an invaluable contribution."
Who doesn't like to hear nice words? Luo Tian's words made Zhong Meixian happy. She couldn't help but straighten her clothes while sitting there.
When the two were talking in great harmony, Wen Tang came out of the house, rubbing his eyes and yawning, holding an enamel pot and a toothbrush in his hands.
Wen Tang did not notice Luo Tian at first, but Luo Tian saw Wen Tang at first.
When Luo Tian saw Wen Tang, she did not stand up to greet him immediately, nor did she ask Zhong Meixian about Wen Tang's identity. She just stared at her.
After Wen Tang looked over, Luo Tian looked at Zhong Meixian and said, "Auntie, who is this?"
Zhong Meixian looked at the pretty and gentle Luo Tian, and then told Luo Tian with some difficulty, "Yan Li's wife."
What Zhong Meixian was thinking was: This is really embarrassing!
Originally, only Wen Tang's family knew that he slept until noon. But now that Luo Tian saw it, the whole team might know about it tomorrow.
By then everyone will know that the Gu family has married a lazy wife.
Coincidentally, Chi Yue also came over from next door with a toothbrush.
Zhong Meixian lowered her head and could not raise it again. She told Luo Tian in a low voice, "This is my eldest grandson's daughter-in-law."
"It came in on the same day as ours."
Luo Tian raised her eyebrows slightly. Even though she was not very curious, she was still quite curious at this moment. Uncle and nephew got married on the same day?
This is the first time she has seen him since she was a child.
But Luo Tian didn't ask. She just smiled and said, "It's a double blessing."
Zhong Meixian nodded.
Of course, she couldn't tell Luo Tian, an outsider, that Wen Tang was a shameless woman who got into a man's bed.
Wen Tang was ashamed, and her son who married Wen Tang was even more ashamed.
Wen Tang and Chi Yue looked at each other, and they both knew who was sitting next to Zhong Meixian.
The heroine is Luo Tian!
In the original book, after being rescued, Luo Tian bought a lot of things and went to the Gu family's house to express her gratitude. She also helped Zhong Meixian with various work, and was very much liked by Zhong Meixian. Zhong Meixian later adopted her as her goddaughter, and after that Luo Tian was able to enter and leave the Gu family openly.
