Gu Mingtai, who was chatting with Li Chunlai and the others, suddenly heard the little woman call his name. He immediately stopped talking, looked over at them, and testified for her, "Grandma, what Xiao Meng said is true. We made a lot of money this time. The money we spent this time is just a small part of it. You don't have to worry."
Grandma Zhang smiled happily, feeling relieved. Seeing her grandson-in-law loving his granddaughter, she had nothing to worry about.
"Xiao Gu, please don't spoil Xiao Meng too much. She has become very extravagant with her money over the past six months. You have to keep a close eye on her. This money doesn't just come from the wind, you have to use it sparingly."
Gu Mingtai glanced at Zhang Meng and saw her little mouth curled up. He couldn't help but smile and hurriedly spoke well of her, "Grandma, it's okay. I can make money. Isn't it a man's job to make money to support his family and give it to women? If Xiao Meng doesn't spend my money, then am I still worthy of being a man? Don't you think so, Grandma?"
After hearing these words, Grandma Zhang liked Gu Mingtai, her future grandson-in-law, more and more.
After chatting, around nine o'clock in the evening, Li Chunlai and Mo Xiaobei followed Gu Mingtai and left Zhangjia Village together.
At night, Zhang Meng lay on the bed she had slept in since she was a child, smelling the soapy scent on the quilt, and gradually fell asleep with a happy smile on her lips.
She slept until about ten o'clock the next day.
No one from the Zhang family goes to the village to work anymore.
So when Zhang Meng woke up, she immediately saw Grandma Zhang and little Zhang Tao waiting for her at home, as well as several villagers from the village.
"Sister." Little Zhang Tao, who was accompanying Grandma Zhang to talk with the villagers, immediately stood up from Grandma Zhang's feet and ran over when he saw Zhang Meng standing up.
Grandma Zhang and four other villagers who were chatting stopped talking and turned to look behind them when they heard little Zhang Tao's shout.
"Xiao Meng is awake!" Four villagers came over to greet her enthusiastically. Zhang Meng smiled and called out their names one by one.
At this time, Grandma Zhang spoke up, "Eat breakfast. It's already warm in the pot. Your brother and I have already eaten. Everything in the pot is yours. Don't leave it for us."
Feeling the awe-inspiring looks of the four villagers next to Grandma Zhang, Zhang Meng felt a little uncomfortable and quickly went into the kitchen taking advantage of Grandma Zhang's words.
In the big pot in the kitchen, there is a bowl of egg custard, a bowl of homemade pickled vegetables and a bowl of sticky white porridge. This is the Zhang family's breakfast in the morning.
After breakfast, Zhang Meng came out again and saw the four villagers still in the yard. She now understood that they were looking for her for something.
"Meng'er, your aunts are here to ask you for help." Grandma Zhang pointed at them and said.
The four of them pushed and shoved for a while before a woman who looked older than them spoke first. "Xiao Meng, this is what's going on. Your aunt and I just had a grandson last month. He's our eldest grandson. I heard that in the past, wealthy families would consult a fortune teller before naming their children. I wanted to follow suit, hoping that this child could live the same life as those wealthy young ladies and masters."
When she said this, Aunt Chunhua lowered her head a little embarrassedly.
Zhang Meng smiled and said, "Then please tell me your grandson's birth date and horoscope."
When Aunt Chunhua heard this, she immediately happily told her grandson's birth date and horoscope.
Zhang Meng counted on her fingers and said quickly, "Aunt, your grandson's horoscope is very good. It will be even better if he has a name containing water."
Aunt Chunhua took it all in her mind and said, "Okay, okay, I'll remember it. Thank you, Xiaomeng. I heard from your grandma that you'll be getting married in a few days. I'll come over to help you then."
At this time, Zhang Meng looked at Grandma Zhang who was smiling, and finally she understood why her grandma wanted her to show it to these four people. It turned out that this was her idea.
"Oh, that's great. I'd like to thank you first."
"What are you thanking me for? I should be the one thanking you." Then, Zhang Meng told fortunes and asked questions for three other women.
After finishing all this, the other three also patted their chests with joy and said that they would come to help on her wedding day.
After seeing the four of them off, Zhang Meng immediately gave a thumbs up to the smiling Grandma Zhang, "Grandma, now I understand where the saying 'older ginger is wiser' comes from. I admire you, your granddaughter." She simply helped the four of them, but they actually came to help willingly.
Grandma Zhang was rarely proud like a young girl. "Of course. You should pay more attention to how I do things and behave in the future."
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
After staying at home for a while, Zhang Meng thought of his little apprentice Xiaobao whom he had not seen for more than half a month. He suddenly missed him very much, so he called Xiao Zhang Tao to go to Zhang Dahu's dilapidated home together.
When Zhang Meng arrived at Zhang Dahu's house, she was stunned for a moment.
This seems to have changed a lot from what she saw more than half a month ago.
"Qian represents horse, Kun represents ox, Zhen represents dragon..." At the door, Zhang Meng heard a child's stuttering recitation coming from inside.
Zhang Meng stood at the door for a while, smiled, took little Zhang Tao's hand, pushed open the fence gate and walked in.
"You recited it well." Zhang Meng shouted to the little guy sitting in the yard.
Xiaobao, who was pondering how to carry the child next, looked up happily when he heard the voice. When he saw the person standing in front of him, he stood up excitedly and ran over, "Sister Xiaomeng, you're back!"
