The old and the young shared the chestnuts, and Meng Qidi got up and went to the kitchen.
"Mom, why didn't Jin Yue come today?"
Wang Jinhua was cutting vegetables. "I don't know. She didn't come today. Maybe she has something going on at home."
Jin Yue didn't come, and she didn't go out either.
Although her eyesight was healed, she seldom went out. She couldn't cause trouble for Xiaoqi, so she had to take things slow.
Ling Jinyue, who used to come to their house rain or shine, suddenly stopped coming one day, and Meng Qidi always felt something was wrong.
After dinner, Meng Qidi watered the two tea trees. Suddenly, she put down the kettle, picked up a bag of mountain products, and hurried out the door.
"Xiao Qi, aren't you going with your teacher this afternoon?" Wang Jinhua hurriedly chased after him. She was going to take those mountain products to Jin Yue's house with her sunglasses.
"He can do it alone. I'll be back soon." Meng Qidi walked towards the village without looking back.
I guess the old man is hoping that he won't mess things up. Just from that grafting, the old man can probably derive a bunch of other things...
Compared to the old man, she was more worried about Jin Yue. She had nothing to do these two days, and she even said she would go to the provincial capital to bring Jin Yue over.
Ling Jinyue's home is at the back of the village. There is a large yard with constant sounds of chickens and dogs barking, and a few faint curses.
"Don't want to eat? Fine, I'll let you fall. You won't starve to death!"
"Why are you making such a fuss every day? You've been with Meng Qidi for so long that you really think you're the daughter of Blind Wang? Ling Jinyue, if you don't want to eat today, then don't eat it forever!"
Unpleasant words were heard, Meng Qidi frowned, a trace of displeasure flashed across her eyes, she glanced at the bag in her hand, and with a move of faith, she put it directly into the space.
Harsh words were heard from the yard one after another. Meng Qidi originally wanted to knock on the door politely, but now she just pushed open the door.
Several chickens and dogs were chasing and fighting each other in the yard. A woman was standing in front of a window, with her hands on her hips, cursing.
Hearing the door open, Luo Xia turned around dissatisfied, "Who is it? I'm dying. That sound..."
Luo Xia didn't dare to continue scolding when she saw Meng Qidi coming in, "Ling Xiao's family, what are you doing in my house?"
Everyone in the village knows about this vicious woman in Ling Xiao's family. She would beat people if she disagreed with them. She even dared to beat men and even robbed other people's houses.
I heard that Old Man Zhao from the cowshed in the next village has moved into Ling Xiao's house and said he wanted to treat Blind Wang's eyes.
Bah! Who would believe that? He has been blind for decades, and even a deity can’t cure him, right?
A family of women actually let an old man live in their house. Who would believe them if they said nothing happened?
Of course, she didn't dare say this out loud, otherwise after Jin Yue got married, people would no longer help her make money.
"Aunt, where is Jin Yue?"
Meng Qidi stood at the gate of the yard. The yard was full of chicken and dog shit. There was no place to stand. How could Jin Yue live in there?
"She's resting in the house. You can go back. She won't come to your house these days."
Luo Xia walked towards Meng Qidi, wanting to close the door. She walked in a hurry and didn't notice that she stepped on some chicken poop.
Before anyone got close, a foul smell hit her in the face. Meng Qidi held her breath. If she hadn't been worried about Jin Yue, she would have left...
"Sister-in-law! Save me! My mother locked me up and won't let me out."
The window was suddenly pushed open, and Ling Jinyue shouted anxiously through the window.
Luo Xia's face changed slightly, and she raised her hand to push Meng Qidi, "Ling Xiao's family should go back first, don't bother with our family's affairs...ah!"
Luo Xia's voice was sharp. She pushed in vain and rushed out the door. However, Meng Qidi brushed past her and went straight into the yard.
It was as if her feet had eyes, and she avoided the chicken shit with almost every step.
Without caring about her hurt leg, Luo Xia anxiously got up and shouted towards the yard, "Meng Qidi! Stop right there! Who allowed you to enter my house? You jinx, take one more step and try..."
Meng Qidi glanced at her coldly, and Luo Xia subconsciously shut up.
Meng Qidi walked directly to the window and glanced at Ling Jinyue inside, "Where is the door?"
Ling Jinyue pointed to the right excitedly and sniffed, "Sister-in-law, it's right here."
Meng Qidi walked straight towards the door.
Luo Xia, who was originally a little wary of Meng Qidi, ran in hurriedly when she saw her actually going to let her daughter out.
"Stop it! Meng Qidi! This is my home! Who allowed you to open the door without permission?"
"Hurry! Sister-in-law, open the door." Ling Jinyue was turning around anxiously inside the door.
There was a big lock on the door. She had originally planned to persuade the mother and daughter, but now, when she saw the lock, she immediately thought of her helplessness in her previous life when she had nowhere to turn for help.
Glancing coldly, Meng Qidi bent down to pick up the hatchet placed in the corner, raised her hand and hit the lock hard with the back of the knife.
Feeling resentful, Meng Qidi used all her strength and failed to pry open the lock. Instead, she managed to knock the door handle off.
"Crack." The sound was particularly crisp.
Almost at the same time, the door was suddenly opened, Ling Jinyue ran out, and hugged Meng Qidi tightly, "Sister-in-law, wuwuwu..."
Ling Jinyue, who was stubborn just now, couldn't help crying almost the first moment she saw Meng Qidi after opening the door.
Meng Qidi patted her on the back gently and glanced at Luo Xia coldly, "Let's go."
Ling Jinyue sniffed, without even looking at Luo Xia, and nodded gently, "Yes, sister-in-law."
Luo Xia stopped the two of them, "Stop! Ling Jinyue, if you dare to take a step away from me, I am your mother! Meng Qidi, are you meddling too much? You are meddling in other people's business!"
Meng Qidi turned her head and looked at Ling Jinyue beside her.
Ling Jinyue took a deep breath, "Mom, don't think I don't know why you locked me up! My brother is going to get married, right?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? What does your brother's marriage to a wife have to do with you?"
Luo Xia's eyes were a little evasive. "I'm doing this for your own good. Look at all the girls nowadays who are not at home reviewing for the college entrance exam. You are not like me who runs out every day."
Meng Qidi was slightly stunned and looked at Ling Jinyue. Did she delay Jinyue?
Ling Jinyue's face turned red with anger, and she said anxiously, "I brought the money back before, why didn't you say so? Who told me to follow my sister-in-law to make money? Don't say nice things to make me review, don't think I don't know what you want to do!"
"Shut up! I don't care who told you this nonsense. If you dare to leave this door today, forget about recognizing me as your mother!"
Ling Jinyue sniffed, "I heard it with my own ears, you and my dad talked about it in the room, you said my brother is going to get married, you have chosen a family, but the woman has high requirements.
Either my brother marries into someone else's family, or I marry an old man whose wife has died!"
"You're talking nonsense, I did that for your own good!" Having her thoughts exposed by her daughter, Luo Xia rushed over angrily and raised her hand to slap Ling Jinyue.
Meng Qidi frowned and raised her hand to stop Luo Xia.
Luo Xia's hand was stopped by someone, but it was not Meng Qidi's hand...
