Chapter 211: Cousin Asks for Help



"I can't live here. I had a fight with my roommate." After that, she took out a loaf of bread from her pocket with a cold face and gave it to her mother: "Mom, this is the bread made by my cousin. Eat it quickly. I need to take it back.

The old woman would start to complain again, saying that her grandchildren had never seen such a rare thing in their lives, and she really wanted to take some back for them to try. If she took these things back, she would definitely not be able to keep them.

Meng Changyi took a bite and said, "Well, this tastes good. Your mother made it before, and I ate it several times."

Meng Si Ning smiled and said, "I built a bakery oven with bricks at home. I originally wanted to make mooncakes, but unfortunately I couldn't do it. I am good at making bread. If you want to eat it in the future, just tell me directly."

Zhang Yimeng said, "Sure, cousin, can I come to you when I want to eat?"

"Of course, if you keep calling me that from now on."

Zhang Yimeng snorted, "Cousin."

"Why are you all here? What are you eating?"

"Uncle."

Zhang Yimeng said coldly, "He's eating alone."

"Mid-Autumn Festival is coming. I made some bread and a few apples. Uncle, you can try some too."

Zhang Minqi looked at the two bags of things in his daughter's arms, and saw that she didn't give him any. He smiled and said, "You're quite angry." Then he turned to his wife and said, "Si Ning is coming, why didn't you tell me? If I hadn't seen you upstairs, would you have left me behind?"

Meng Changyi broke off a piece of bread in his hand and gave it to him, saying, "Look at your daughter's mood. It's good for you that she left you alone."

"Okay, don't be angry. Dad knows what's going on. But they are relatives after all. They haven't come for many years. We can completely ignore what they say and do."

"You can, but I can't. I get angry just hearing that. With that Chen Qiurong around, I can't even keep the clothes in my room."

Meng Sining frowned after hearing the name. The name sounded so familiar.

"Well, this bread is good. It's unique in Xinliang."

Although Zhang Yimeng didn't understand these social etiquettes, she said this, but she still felt sorry for her parents: "Here, let's eat quickly. Dad, you take one to the office later, and Mom, you take one too. Leave all the apples in the office. Don't take anything to eat tonight."

"You kid, today is Mid-Autumn Festival, how can you not eat?"

Meng Changyi smiled and said, "We can't be considered reunited now."

Zhang Yimeng hummed in response: "The only one missing is my brother. I don't know if he can come back this year."

Zhang Minqi said, "No, he needs three years there before he can be transferred back, and it's only his second year. There's no vacation time."

"Oh, my brother is really suffering."

"I've discussed with your dad about visiting your brother during the Chinese New Year this year. Do you want to go?"

"Let's go to the island... let's go."

"Does Si Ning want to go?"

Meng Si Ning shook his head: "My mother said that she can spend the New Year with us this year."

Meng Changyi said: "That's good, everyone can have a reunion this year."

"Ahem, I also want to tell you something."

"What's up?"

"I'm dating."

"What?"

"When did it happen?"

"Some time ago, I went to Shen City and met a soldier named Lu Cheng, who was a regimental commander."

Zhang Yimeng said: "He is a regiment leader, and his age..."

"Twenty-five or twenty-six, three or four years older than me."

"Young and promising, cousin, what does he look like? Do you have a photo?"

Meng Changyi said, "Looks are fine. What's most important is character. As long as he's a good person, that's fine. Where is he from?"

"From Beijing, currently in Shen District."

Zhang Minqi frowned and said, "In the Shen District. If we get married, won't you go to his place?"

Meng Changyi also thought of this and was a little reluctant to part with her niece: "Some time ago, I said that you were not young anymore and you were unwilling to be introduced to someone. Why did you find someone so far away now?

If we really get married, I'll be alone over there without any relatives."

"Uncle, aunt, this matter is still uncertain. We will discuss the specific location when the time comes."

"Do your mother and your uncle Lin know?"

"Yes, they have seen it."

"This matter is still up to you. Your mother and I cannot make the decision for you.

But he must be a good-looking person.”

"I understand, auntie. If he comes again next time, I will definitely bring him to see you."

Youcaoling Village

As Jiang Tang stepped into the village, the tension and excitement of the autumn harvest hit him.

The fields are full of busy villagers.

Some villagers were very enthusiastic when they saw the ginger candy.

They gave the water they put on the roadside to Jiangtang to drink.

I asked her if she was thirsty or tired after walking all the way.

"Secretary Jiang, we earned over a dollar yesterday. We still have plenty of food."

"Secretary Jiang, I got a small thermos. It's not big, but it's hard to find and very rare."

Jiang Tang smiled and said, "As long as everyone is satisfied, that's fine. Accountant Wang told me yesterday that he had discounted some vegetables."

"What's the big deal if I give it a little? If I sell it to my house, it won't even bring me half a pound, not even a cent. I'm willing to do that. I have no objection."

"Yes, I have no objection."

Jiang Tang felt relieved when he heard them say that.

Lai Hua suddenly popped up from nowhere and said, "Secretary Jiang, everyone else got their money yesterday, but ours didn't. What's going on? I was thinking of using this money to propose to Wen Lan. Are you here to give me some money?"

Jiang Tang glared at him. "Are you still thinking of asking Lan? She doesn't like you, but you keep pestering her all day. Be careful or I'll send the commune's women's director over."
