"You guys are back. This girl has been waiting here since early morning."
Hearing that her son and daughter-in-law had returned, Wang Po groped to her feet, feeling helpless.
"No one from home wants to make trouble, right?" Meng Qidi took the bag from in front of Ling Xiao.
"No, by the way, your father called and said that there will be a wedding banquet the day after tomorrow and asked all the family members to come over."
"Well, I'll take you there the day after tomorrow."
The old lady waved her hand and said, "You three can go. I, an old woman, should not get in the way."
"Then how much gift should we give?" Ling Xiao asked.
"It's up to you to decide. As for gifts, it's up to you. The Meng family is new, so you can give more important gifts than other relatives."
Meng Qidi nodded. She already had an idea in her mind. She brought the things to the door, pulled a chair to sit down, opened the bag and sorted the things.
When the little girl saw Meng Qidi open the bag, she screamed in surprise.
"Aunt, you bought so many things!"
She saw what a beautiful hairband!
"Here, this is for you. And these leather shoes are from your grandma. Try them on to see if they fit your feet."
Meng Qidi took out two pairs of leather shoes and a hairband and handed them over, and then took out two silk scarves, "I'll help you tie the scarves later."
Wang Po took the shoes helplessly and said, "I have the shoes, that's enough. You young ones can wear the scarves."
"Mom, do you feel that you are not young enough?"
Meng Qidi took a silk scarf and tied a beautiful bow on the little girl's ponytail. She lowered her head and asked, "Xiao Chengzi, is grandma old?"
"What does old mean?" the little girl asked in confusion, tilting her head up.
"Compared with your great grandmother, who is prettier?"
"Of course it's grandma. Grandma has a lot of dots on her face and a lot of wrinkles on her face."
"Do you have any?"
"No!" The little girl shook her head in agreement.
Ling Xiao looked at Wang Po suspiciously, and then his eyes were full of surprise. He wouldn't have noticed it if Xiao Qi hadn't said it, but now he realized that his mother's face was a lot cleaner.
Thinking about what Shen Xing said before, the well water tasted quite refreshing, I was afraid it was Xiao Qi's work again...
Ling Xiao sighed in his heart, is it really worth it for her to expose her background for them?
"Mom, let me help you tie your hair." Meng Qidi came over in a good mood.
Wang Po couldn't persuade her, so she could only let her torment her. "Oh, kid, you have to torment me, why do I tie those fancy things?"
Wang Po's name is Wang Jinhua. She is actually not very old, only in her early fifties. But an accident in her family made her look older.
These days, Meng Qidi used lotion to treat Ling Xiao's legs, and she also benefited from it. Not only did her skin get better, but even her senses became much clearer.
"Nonsense! You are still young. You can't see it. If you saw it..."
Meng Qidi paused, an idea suddenly popped into her mind. The lotion was useful for Ling Xiao's leg injury, but she wondered if it would be useful for the old lady's eyes?
However, the old lady has been blind for too long, and it would probably be very troublesome to repair her eyes.
The daughter-in-law paused, and Wang Jinhua thought she was blaming herself for saying the wrong thing, so she smiled and comforted her.
"It's okay. I've gotten used to this eye a long time ago. I have no regrets in my life. I just hope you're all fine."
She felt relieved that Xiaoqi didn't dislike Xiaochengzi. That girl was a thorn in her side.
Meng Qidi paused slightly. If she and Ling Xiao divorced a year later, would she be unable to accept it?
"Auntie, why did you buy so many books?" The little girl screamed, interrupting their conversation.
Meng Qidi came to her senses and quickly helped Wang Po tie up her hair. "That's for your uncle. He has nothing to do anyway."
Meng Qidi's excuse went smoothly, so I didn't want to talk about it anymore.
Wang Jinhua was happy. "It's time to learn. I'll keep learning until I'm old. When I have nothing to do at home in the future, I can teach Xiao Chengzi."
Ling Xiao...
Well, it seems that he can’t escape the fate of reading…
After tying the old lady's hair, Meng Qidi called the little girl over, "How is it, does grandma look good?"
"It looks good! So beautiful! Just like a fairy." The little girl started praising immediately.
Wang Jinhua was helpless, "You are the only one who has a sweet mouth. The fairy is talking about you and your aunt."
"Grandma is also a fairy!"
Wang Jinhua was amused by her granddaughter and laughed for a long time before she recovered. "By the way, how about you go for the checkup?"
Meng Qidi looked at Ling Xiao, and Ling Xiao shook his head slightly. He was not sure whether his leg could be healed, so it would be better not to give her too much hope. What if he could not recover later?
Meng Qidi understood what he meant, but didn't say it too harshly. "The doctor said that I'm better than before, and the possibility of recovery is high. I should be able to walk again. However, if I want to return to the way I was before..."
Wang Jinhua breathed a sigh of relief, but fearing that her two sons were overthinking, she hurried to comfort them.
"It's good to be able to walk. Let's not be too greedy. Once we are well, we can change jobs and still take care of the family."
"Yeah." Ling Xiao nodded slightly, lowered his head and picked up the book in the bag. There was a pile of seeds in the bag, and he had to take them out carefully, otherwise he would not be able to tell them apart if they were mixed up.
The two of them packed up their things and it was getting dark.
After two days of running around in the city, the two were very tired. After eating, they took a shower and went to bed.
In the opposite room, the little girl came back stealthily and lowered her voice, "Grandma, this is terrible."
Wang Jinhua was fumbling with the method of making the bed.
The little girl rushed to her grandmother and said, "Grandma, I just saw my uncle and aunt sleeping in separate beds! Xiao Ming said that only when adults sleep together can a baby be born. My uncle and aunt don't sleep together. When will I have a brother or sister?"
Wang Jinhua paused and sighed, "Don't say that in front of my uncle and aunt."
She was also surprised that they slept in separate beds, but she couldn't ask about such things. They got along quite well during the day, so they were probably just getting used to each other...
"When will I have brothers and sisters?"
Wang Jinhua raised her hand and rubbed the top of her granddaughter's head, chuckling, "When the time comes, the younger brother and sister will come."
The little girl snorted and jumped off the bed, "You adults always like to say things like this that are hard to understand."
Wang Jinhua was annoyed. Why did this girl deserve a beating so badly?
After making the bed and preparing to carry the little girl to bed, Wang Jinhua suddenly felt a stinging pain in her eyes. She covered her eyes with her hands and fell down on the bed.
Ling Cheng turned his head, and then his face changed drastically. He rushed over, "Grandma, what's wrong with you? I'll go call my uncle and aunt."
Wang Jinhua took a long time to recover, panting, "Don't make trouble, my eyes hurt a little, keep your voice down, it's not a big deal."
Ling Xiao and the other guy just came back, so don’t bother them anymore. Her eyes are not a big deal.
"What should we do now?" The little girl jumped anxiously.
"It's okay, it's okay, come here." Wang Jinhua was afraid of scaring her granddaughter, so she stretched her hand towards the shadow.
Ling Cheng quickly hugged her grandmother and raised his head with concern, "Does it still hurt? Grandma, your eyes seem red?"
"It's red? It's bleeding?" Wang Jinhua was originally afraid of scaring her granddaughter, but now she was also shocked and felt a little helpless.
"No, I'll go call my uncle and the others." The little girl quickly ran out.
