On the way back by car, Ling Xiao kept humming a song in a good mood.
Meng Qidi looked at him suspiciously for a few times, and finally couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay. If you're tired, just take a nap."
Ling Xiao coughed lightly. Xiao Qi accepted the gift he bought. She didn't avoid suspicion when he helped her down. What was going on at this moment? It meant that they had taken a step further.
Unable to figure out what this man was thinking, Meng Qidi leaned back and closed her eyes.
It was dark when the two returned to the town. They stopped at a butcher's shop. Ling Xiao went in and asked the chef to order half a pig, to be picked up the next morning.
By the time I got home, it was already dark, so I naturally had to return the car the next day.
The next day, all the things were unloaded from the car. There were a lot of things to do today, so the two had to go to town and also to Mengjia Lane.
Therefore, the task of cleaning and preparing the dishes was left to Wang Jinhua.
When getting ready to get in the car, Meng Qidi glanced at the little orange standing at the door who looked like a little black man, and twitched her lips, "How did she become like this?"
Wang Jinhua glanced and pursed her lips, "I stayed with your teacher for a while, and ended up drawing myself like a cat. I can't get rid of it."
"Auntie..." The little girl looked at Meng Qidi aggrievedly.
Meng Qidi couldn't help but laugh, "Try some Fengyoujing, but be careful with her face, don't get it in her mouth or eyes."
"Let her go. You guys go quickly. Don't be too late. There will be no pork left."
There were so many things to do that Meng Qidi had no time to take care of the little girl. She followed Ling Xiao into the car and left.
The little girl looked at the two people leaving with a feeling of grievance.
Fearing that they would not have enough time, when they arrived in town, the two went to the police station to register the company.
It is not that troublesome to set up a company these days. There are fewer procedures. And with the Beijing registration certificate, it is much faster. I just stamped a few stamps and went back to wait for news.
They changed the bike at the police station and naturally asked the comrades from the police station for help. The two of them pushed their bikes directly to the butcher's shop after leaving the police station.
"Send it now or later?" the master asked when he saw the two people coming in.
"It depends on your schedule. Try to deliver it as early as possible. How much is the meat? I'll pay for it first." Meng Qidi asked.
Although things are a bit chaotic these days, there are still many sincere people. Once an acquaintance pays, they will not refuse to pay.
"Okay, I'll have someone deliver the pork to you later. Take a look at it first and we'll talk about the price."
When they came out of the butcher shop, it was almost ten o'clock, and the two rode their bicycles to Mengjia Lane.
"You got into college?" Mrs. Meng was slightly stunned. "You two both got in?"
I guess no one expected that the Ling family would actually agree to Xiaoqi taking the college entrance examination. Aren’t they afraid that Xiaoqi will run away with someone after getting into college?
Don't blame her for having such thoughts. People in the countryside are poor now and there are many people who don't have enough to eat, not to mention which family has the money to support her daughter-in-law to go to college.
Even if they have money, I guess no one would dare to do that. What if someone goes to the city and refuses to come back? Wouldn't that be like throwing meat buns at a dog?
Naturally, the two of them didn't know what Old Lady Meng was thinking.
Ling Xiao raised his hand and placed it on Meng Qidi's shoulder. "Well, we both got into Beijing, so I would like to trouble grandma to take us to a few restaurants that are having banquets."
Hearing that both of them passed the exam, Old Mrs. Meng breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they both passed, that's good.
Someone put his hand on her shoulder. Meng Qidi glanced at him and then quickly looked away.
"There are not many houses. Just follow me." After locking the gate, Old Lady Meng led the couple to the next door. Naturally, she wanted to invite the two uncles.
The old lady walked in front, and the two followed behind. Ling Xiao leaned slightly to the side and lowered his voice, "Your grandma's eyes were not right just now, so I..."
Ling Xiao meant to explain his previous misconduct. Meng Qidi nodded slightly and said nothing.
After visiting relatives in Mengjia Lane, we went to the home of Captain Meng Feng.
Compared to the old lady's reaction, Meng Feng was overjoyed. "That's great. We have college students in our family now, and two at once. It's a first in life."
"So, you and your aunt should go together tomorrow morning." Meng Qidi instructed.
"Go! Of course I will go. This is a great event." Meng Feng responded with a smile.
They visited all the relatives in Mengjia Lane and invited them, but because they were busy at home, they did not eat there and rode their bikes back directly.
Last time he was distracted and almost got into trouble. Now that he is going back, especially since the road is difficult to walk on, Ling Xiao dare not be distracted.
Meng Qidi was afraid of encountering the same incident as yesterday along the way, so when they came in the morning, they pushed their bicycles and walked back.
As soon as she arrived at the village, Meng Qidi jumped down quickly.
Ling Xiao stopped, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I...I'll go pick some vegetables. You go back first." Meng Qidi said this and ran away without looking back.
Ling Xiao was a little confused. He looked around and pushed the cart back. Only when he reached the bridge did he realize that she was avoiding suspicion.
With a helpless smile, Ling Xiao pushed the car in.
In the yard, Zhao Dezhong was cutting a pig with a machete. Seeing him coming back alone, he turned his head suspiciously, "Where's Xiaoqi? Why did you come back alone? Did you lose your wife? You deserve it!"
"No way, I can't lose her, right?" Ling Xiao parked the car and walked over, "Do you need help?"
Zhao Dezhong was not polite anymore and stuffed the knife in his hand into his hand. "Leave it to you. I'll go play chess with Xiao Chengzi."
The little girl's face was barely cleaned, but he didn't dare let her touch the ink again.
When Meng Qidi came back, Ling Xiao was processing pork. Wang Jinhua and Wang Hexiang took a few pieces of pork and went in to process them.
After saying hello to old man Ling Xiao, Meng Qidi went to the kitchen, where she had just prepared some vegetables to fry for lunch.
The two of them finished washing most of the vegetables in the morning and were waiting to stew the pork in the afternoon so it would be ready tomorrow.
After lunch, Ling Xiao and Meng Qidi went to the back mountain. They went there with a mission, which was to dig some spring bamboo shoots and see if they could catch some wild rabbits while the weather was cold.
When they reached the exit of the underground river, Ling Xiao poked his head out to take a look. "Did Mr. Zhao hire someone to blow it up? That's very thoughtful."
Traces of gunpowder explosion can still be seen at the exit. Although it has been dry for a long time, the water flow at the outlet has not decreased.
"Well, where are we going now?"
"Go to the place where you dug tea trees last time?" Ling Xiao's leg was healed and he was tall and bold.
"No? Can't you just catch rabbits?"
Meng Qidi refused subconsciously. She no longer wanted to go through the same scary experience as last time.
Besides, there’s nothing to catch over there.
Ling Xiao couldn't persuade her, "Okay, if we don't go, we can just walk around the reservoir?"
"Yeah." Meng Qidi breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, he was a child who grew up in the mountains, so he was much faster at finding things than her. He directly looked for a rabbit hole, blocked one entrance, and asked Meng Qidi to guard the exit and light a fire to make smoke, while he blocked the other end...
Almost every time we block it, it’s accurate.
In just an hour, the backpack was filled with several tied mixed-hair rabbits and a litter of baby rabbits...
“Isn’t it amazing?”
Ling Xiao glanced at the basket and asked with a smile.
Meng Qidi gave a thumbs up, "Great..."
