"Mom can see now."
Meng Qidi spoke in a low voice, fearing that others might hear. Although it was a good thing that the old lady's eyes had recovered, it happened too suddenly. Ling Xiao's legs also slowly recovered after he went to Beijing.
Ling Xiao was stunned for a long time before he could utter a word, "Is this true?"
"Really." Ling Xiao was a little bit unbelievable, "How does she...feel now?"
"You'll know when you come back. Next time I'll take her to take a photo and send it to you. Mom can see it. Her eyes are so beautiful."
"Well, you have to take a photo too."
"Why should I do that?" Meng Qidi rolled her eyes.
"A family portrait. Take Xiao Chengzi with you. Then take a photo of each of you. The whole family will be together."
"What do you mean by family? You're not here..." Meng Qidi was speechless at his strange request.
"I'll take a photo in Jing City as well, and then put all four of us together, okay?"
Meng Qidi was silent. You don’t understand what I mean. What do you want my photo for?
Unable to persuade him, Meng Qidi agreed, and the man's voice was full of smiles.
"Have you used the printing press I sent you last time? Do you need it again? I'll ask Shen Xing to help me find it when he has time. He's quite free."
Shen Xing, who was passing by the guard room, happened to hear this and was speechless. How could he see that he was idle? Didn't his work have to be shared among them?
"Let's not do it. One machine is enough. We won't make much money. Jin Yue is helping me with printing, and Mr. Zhao is helping me with engraving. By the way, Mr. Zhao, can you help me check it out when you have time?"
"What's wrong?" Ling Xiao asked nervously.
"His full name is Zhao Dezhong. A thief broke into his house last night. It was Ling Sixiong. I beat him up. That old man helped me. He took a fancy to our water..."
Before Meng Qidi finished her words, Ling Xiao understood what she meant. His wife was being targeted.
His voice deepened a little, "I didn't beat him out."
"Don't be so impulsive. Listen to me." Meng Qidi told Ling Xiao about their negotiation, including the fact that Old Man Zhao was willing to help cover the old lady's eyes...
On the other end of the phone, Ling Xiao was silent for a moment, "I mean I don't want you to feel wronged. If you want to get rid of this old man, I'll come. If he wants it at home, I'll just destroy it."
"I want to take a gamble." Meng Qidi lowered her voice a little, "I took him as my master, and his goal is also our family's water. My goal is his identity. I want to enter his school."
Ling Xiao disagreed, "Didn't you also say that he only talked about it verbally at school?"
"Even if it's fake, we won't lose anything. I've thought of a way out. If you make me angry and destroy our family, I'll bring mom and Xiaochengzi to find you." Meng Qidi joked.
She didn't want to think so badly of everyone. Not everyone in this world was Meng Yuzhen. For example, Ling Xiao had done this for her in his previous life...
"Okay, I'll keep this in mind. I'll check on Zhao Dezhong. By the way, I've told the team about the lotus roots. If you have time, send two of them over. The commander said that if the quality is good, we'll be given priority."
"Really?" Meng Qidi was full of surprise. If the army could pass the test, she would definitely rent a big pond or dig a pond.
The lotus roots grown with Yuquan water can be sent to the army and sold for money, and will also be good for the soldiers' chronic injuries. She would definitely be willing to do so.
"Well, but the lotus roots at home..."
Meng Qidi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a plan for this matter. I'll go back and ask the old man for help. He has a lot of tricks. If nothing goes wrong, this lotus root may be sent in as the result of our research."
Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his voice a bit, "I'm worried about you too."
"What's there to worry about? I can fight and run, no one can hurt me. But you, be careful. If something happens, don't hide it. Let someone tell me as soon as possible."
As long as she had a breath left, she could pull herself back from the brink of death.
"Yeah." Ling Xiao nodded, and felt that the two of them had become much closer. "Thank you for your hard work at home."
"I won't suffer anymore. Once mom has fully recovered, I will concentrate on reviewing. Don't forget our agreement. See you in Beijing. You have to review well!"
"Yeah, I remember it." Ling Xiao couldn't help but smile.
After chatting with Ling Xiao for a while, Meng Qidi hung up. Ling Sixiong would send some money over in the afternoon, so she had to go back quickly, otherwise she was afraid that the man would cause trouble for her family.
When Meng Qidi met Ling Sixiong with a sullen face in the village, she went straight to him and asked for money. As for whether the other party would hold a grudge against her, she did not consider that.
You have to know that the one who provokes first is the meanest. If Ling Sixiong didn't provoke her every time, they would naturally not become enemies. She is not a coward either. He is cruel, but she is even more cruel than him!
She turned and left with a stack of money, Ling Sixiong glared at her back with resentment.
"Fourth brother, how could you let a yellow-haired girl take the money away? Aren't you too honest?"
"Can you beat her?" Ling Sixiong turned around angrily. He thought he was willing, but he couldn't beat that woman...
People call the police when they have a disagreement. With Ling Xiao's connections, he probably won't be able to get out once he goes in...
Some people even said Meng Qidi was easy to deceive, and that it was okay to coax her. Bah! What a bunch of liars.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Ling Sixiong kicked him hard.
Fuck! I'm so depressed. I won't mess with that crazy woman anymore!
On this side, when Meng Qidi was about to reach the door of her home, she put the money in her pocket into the space, and when she had time, she would ask the old lady if the money was enough.
As I reached the door, the dogs and cats in the yard started barking.
“Woof woof woof!”
"It must be Sister Xiaoqi who is back."
A familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar voice sounded. Before Meng Qidi could push open the gate and go in, the gate was opened from the inside and a tall figure rushed towards her.
"Sister Xiaoqi, I missed you!"
Meng Qidi almost subconsciously reached out her hand and directly held back the man who rushed over, "Nie Zheng? Are you stupid again?"
"No." Nie Zheng shook his head subconsciously, looking at the hand that was blocking him with some grievance.
"Sister Xiaoqi, you have changed..."
"Stand still, stay away from me. Also, you're older than me, don't call me sister."
Meng Qidi pushed him away with disgust and strode in.
Sister Xiaoqi? He thought he was the mentally retarded Nie Zheng.
