Chapter 193 Zhao Meili is getting married
The three members of the Lu family arrived at the Beijing Railway Station and looked around with joy.
Liang Qiaoli pulled Lu Mingqi's clothes and said, "Don't look like you've never seen the world."
Lu Mingqi said, "Mom, I haven't seen the world to begin with."
Liang Qiaoli said, "You haven't seen the world, can't you pretend?"
Lu Yongfu listened and controlled his eyes, trying not to look around.
Shen Jiale saw the three people at the exit and waved to them.
Taking the luggage from Liang Qiaoli, he said, "Dad, Mom, and Big Brother, you are here. The children have been talking about you since they got up. They will be so happy to see you when they get home from school."
Lu Yongfu said, "I will pick them up from school later and give them a surprise."
Shen Jiale hired a car to pick them up. It was the first time for the Lu family and their son to take a car, but thinking of Liang Qiaoli's instructions, they pretended to be calm and got in the car.
The driver also asked, "Grandpa and Aunt, do you often come to Beijing?"
Lu Yongfu did not say that it was his first time here, and said, "My son and his family are in Beijing."
When they got home, the old couple did not rest, but could not wait to go to the children's school.
Lu Changyan and Lu Changxiao no longer needed to be picked up and dropped off, and they came back by themselves.
Shen Jiale said he would take the old couple to the kindergarten to pick up Lu Changjun and Lu Changjie.
Lu Yongfu asked Shen Jiale to take him to the school gate of his granddaughters first, and asked Liang Qiaoli to pick up the grandchildren.
Shen Jiale understood the old man's desire to see the children, so he did as he was told, and took Lu Yongfu to the primary school gate to wait.
...
Both sides brought the children home, and Lu Changyan and Lu Changxiao each held delicious food in their hands.
The children greeted their families.
Shen Jiale scratched his daughters' noses and said, "You haven't presented your good things to grandpa yet, so let grandpa spend the money first."
Lu Yongfu said, "It's not a waste of money. It's a reward for Yanyan and Xiaoxiao. They both got 100 points in the exam."
Lu Mingqi praised, "Yanyan and Xiaoxiao are so smart, but Changguo is so stupid that he just passes every exam."
Lu Changxiao said, "Brother Changguo is not stupid, he just doesn't get it. As long as he uses the right study method, his grades will definitely improve."
Hearing his niece say this, Lu Mingqi felt much more relieved.
"Xiaoxiao, can you teach your study method to your brother?"
Lu Changxiao asked Shen Jiale: "Mom, can I give my brother the picture book you bought for me?"
When the children were young, Shen Jiale often took out the enlightenment books in the space for them to read. In order to make it easier for the children to take them out and read, Shen Jiale would change the cover.
After school, he would also find some entertaining and educational books for the children to read.
Shen Jiale nodded and said yes.
Lu Changxiao went to organize his own picture book and gave it to Lu Mingqi.
Shen Jiale said that he would ask someone to take them to have a good look in Jingshi tomorrow, and Lu Mingqi said that he would go back tomorrow.
He went to set up a stall to sell biscuits every day, and his income was considerable, and he didn't want to waste the opportunity to make money.
Shen Jiale didn't hesitate to prepare some gifts for Lu Mingqi to take back. He got up early the next day to buy a train ticket back and sent Lu Mingqi off.
...
Since their marriage, the elders of the two families have not met. Liang Qiaoli asked Shen Jiale to invite her parents to dinner at home.
Shen Jiale had already familiarized the two of them with the surrounding environment. Early on Sunday morning, Liang Qiaoli went to the nearby vegetable market to buy meat.
Shen Jiale took the meat out of the space and said that he bought it himself.
Liang Qiaoli said: "Don't get up early to buy vegetables in the future. I am here to help you with work and take care of the children. Leave these things to me in the future."
Shen Jiale took some money and gave it to Liang Qiaoli, saying that it was living expenses.
Liang Qiaoli refused at first, but she reluctantly accepted it after Shen Jiale's repeated insistence.
The two parents met. Although there was a disparity in status, Shen Qingshan and He Guizhen did not look down on country people at all, and even asked Liang Qiaoli to go shopping together.
After dinner, the two mothers went to the supply and marketing cooperative, and Shen Qingshan also played chess with Lu Yongfu.
The clothes Liang Qiaoli brought were all from the countryside. She was worried that she would be looked down upon by the city people if she wore them like this, so she bought a set of clothes for herself and Lu Yongfu respectively.
While trying on clothes, Zhao Meili's mother saw He Guizhen and came over to talk.
Seeing Liang Qiaoli was dressed in rustic clothes, she asked He Guizhen: "Who is this relative of yours? I've never heard that you have any relatives from the countryside."
He Guizhen said: "This is my relative, Jiale's mother-in-law. She came from her hometown to help Jiale take care of the children."
Mother Zhao pulled He Guizhen aside and said: "Why did Jiale's mother-in-law come here? She finally came back to the city. She should get rid of her previous life and start anew."
He Guizhen said: "They have a very good relationship. Didn't Meili tell you that after Jiale was admitted to university, they moved to Beijing?"
"What, they all came? Jiale is ignorant, why don't you persuade her?"
"My son-in-law is also very good. What do you want me to persuade?"
Mother Zhao didn't believe it: "How good can a country person be? He is just a farmer."
"When my son-in-law was in his hometown, he was a formal worker in the county town. Now he has bought a car. How can he not be outstanding?"
Mother Zhao still didn't believe it and called her daughter who was buying things at another counter to come over.
Zhao Meili and a man came over, and Zhao's mother proudly introduced them to He Guizhen: "This is Meili's boyfriend Yao Chenggong, the workshop director. They are getting married on the sixth day of next month. You must come to the wedding then."
Yao Chenggong also politely said: "Welcome to our wedding."
Zhao's mother asked her daughter: "Meili, does Jiale's man really work in the county? Did you see him buy a car?"
Zhao Meili said: "They did work in the county before coming to Beijing. As for buying a car, I don't know."
Liang Qiaoli was trying on clothes. When she heard a familiar voice, she turned her head and said in surprise: "Teacher Zhao, what a coincidence to meet you here." Zhao Meili
was shocked to see Liang Qiaoli. Yao Chenggong was pulled away by Zhao Meili before he knew what was going on.
Liang Qiaoli was still shouting from behind: "Teacher Zhao, why are you leaving? It's rare to meet you, come to your house for a meal."
Zhao's mother asked: "Do you know my daughter?"
Liang Qiaoli smiled and said: "Of course I know her. Teacher Zhao lived in our village when she went to work in the countryside. Teacher Fang often came to my house to inquire about her. I said, why hasn't Teacher Zhao written a letter to our family in such a long time? The child is crying for her mother every day."
Hearing this, Zhao's mother's face changed.
Liang Qiaoli said, "The biscuit factory in our village has a phone number. I'll give you the number. Let Teacher Zhao call your son to comfort him..."
Before Liang Qiaoli finished her words, Zhao's mother couldn't listen any more and left without even saying goodbye to He Guizhen.
"Why did you leave? I haven't told her the number yet?"
He Guizhen said, "Meili has found someone new in Beijing. She won't contact the man and child in the countryside anymore."
Liang Qiaoli was shocked, "How could she do this? She's not divorced. How could she find another man?"
