Chapter 113 I seem to have grown taller



Coming out of the Meng family, Meng Qidi's eyes flickered slightly. Seeing the decoration of the house, she had actually prepared herself for her father to ask for money.

But they left without him saying a word...

Could it be that Meng Daqiang's personality has changed?

"What's wrong?" Ling Xiao asked suspiciously.

"The lotus pond at home is growing well. As long as there are lotus roots in the pond, we shouldn't have to worry about their future lives."

Meng Qidi didn't say what she was thinking, for fear that Ling Xiao would really give them money.

"Oh, by the way, what are your plans for the wasteland in front of our house?"

"Why not just turn them all into lotus ponds? We can still raise fish in them. Do you still mean to say that I'll give you the lotus roots?"

If she is not in the Ling family in the future, with the Oupang still there, Wang Po and Xiao Chengzi's lives will be guaranteed.

Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Of course."

He felt relieved knowing that her heart was with the Ling family.

As Meng Qidi and the other person just left, Zhao Hong grabbed Meng Daqiang who was about to leave and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Call Yuzhen."

Meng Daqiang pushed her hand away impatiently. This woman was a jerk. Not only did she go against him, she even dared to yell at him...

"Why are you calling Yuzhen? Didn't Xiaoqi not invite Yuzhen?" Zhao Hong was slightly stunned.

"Of course I asked her if she had any money. Her family was building a house, but she didn't know how to help them."

Meng Daqiang said as a matter of course.

"You asked Yuzhen for money? Xiaoqi and his wife were here just now, why didn't you ask her for it? It's not easy for Yuzhen to stay in the city."

Meng Daqiang sneered, "Is Xiaoqi as rich as Yuzhen? She and her husband always walk every time they come here. Unlike Yuzhen, her family has a car. I have raised her for twenty years. What's wrong with her helping the family a little?"

"You...I won't let you go!"

Zhao Hong grabbed Meng Daqiang and said, "You asked Yuzhen for money, but you never thought about how Yuzhen will live in the Nie family in the future..."

Meng Daqiang was annoyed by her noise and pulled her hand away.

"Okay, I won't go find her. Go get the money from your parents, or you can forget about living here!"

The money for this house came from selling lotus roots, and the lotus roots were originally available because of Xiaoqi. What did Yuzhen do to help the family?

The house has been renovated, all that's left is buying furniture. He has almost spent all his money, and the lotus roots in the pond have not yet grown, so of course he has to find a way to make money.

Zhao Hong was so angry at his shamelessness, "Meng Daqiang, you..."

"Okay, get as far away as you can and don't stop me!" Meng Daqiang pushed her away irritably, becoming more and more annoyed the more he looked at her.

He also needs to get some money, otherwise how can he prepare for the banquet next month? There is no one in the family who can be relied on.

The two elders had money, but he didn't want it. Although Meng Daqiang was a bit of a bastard, he was not unfilial. It would be better to keep the money for them to use in their old age.

Forget it, he will go to Xiaoqi privately the day after tomorrow to see what solution she has.

There was a quarrel next door. Sun Fang leaned against the door with her big belly and ate watermelon seeds. "Old Four, what's wrong? Why doesn't he go find Meng Yuzhen?"

Fortunately, she knew Meng Yuzhen must be rich in the county town.

Touching her belly, Sun Fang went out.

"Why are you here?"

Meng Erliu squatted at the door drinking sweet potato porridge. He glanced at Sun Fang's belly, not knowing whether it was his own child or not.

"Is what you said you saw last time true?" Sun Fang asked directly.

Meng Erliu paused, a sly look flashed across his eyes, "I don't understand what you are talking about."

Knowing Meng Erliu's personality, Sun Fang took out two dollars from her pocket and handed it to him, "Tell me everything."

Meng Erliu put it directly into his pocket, "Of course it's real. Your Yuzhen's dowry was placed in the house. I woke up in the middle of the night and saw someone pouring it in."

It was impossible for him to get up in the middle of the night and run to Old Man Meng's door. He just wanted to steal something to resell, but someone got there first...

"Did that Ge Zhiqing hire someone to do it?" Sun Fang asked hurriedly.

"I didn't say that. I followed him and saw him go to the educated youth camp."

Meng Erliu drank the porridge in one breath, touched his mouth and stood up, "Don't talk nonsense, that's all I saw. By the way, is your Meng Yuzhen back?"

Sun Fang rolled her eyes and said casually, "How could that be possible? She has never returned except for visiting her parents, and she doesn't even know how to receive a return wine."

Do you want to pick up the wine?

Meng Erliu smiled and rubbed his hands. It seemed that he would have to keep an eye on Old Man Meng and his family in the next few days. He guessed that Meng Yuzhen would like to know the news very much.

After getting the information she wanted, Sun Fang went to the big tree. Doesn’t Ge Zhiqing have a good relationship with Meng Yuzhen?

It was clearly Meng Yuzhen who pushed the case last time. That educated youth was so bad that he even gave false testimony. She had to make the news known to the entire team!

When Meng Qidi and her friend arrived in town, they went to the butcher shop first, ordered a lot of meat, and asked the owner to deliver it to their home.

I bought a lot of dried vegetables for the banquet at the supply and marketing cooperative, and we had vegetables at home.

When the things were brought home, Meng Qidi put a lot of ham sausage in while Ling Xiao was not paying attention. There was no corn in this season, only cucumbers, so she could only stir-fry the cucumbers. These days, ham sausage is the favorite dish of children.

I took out all the menus and compared them with the old lady. There were two tables, each with ten dishes, five meat dishes, four vegetable dishes and one soup.

After eating bamboo shoots for lunch, I went to the back mountain to dig some and soaked them. This fish...

"Go catch it."

"Where to catch it?" Meng Qidi turned her head and asked.

The fish soup in the village is public property. Those are the fish that the team will distribute at the end of the year, and no one is allowed to catch them privately.

Ling Xiao glanced at the stream beside him, "Downstream from our house, right where your fish pond is, there's a big pool. There are fish in it."

"There are no fish in there," the old lady disagreed, "the water is too deep, it's not safe."
