"Aunt, you don't have to send me off. I can go there by myself."
Meng Qidi looked at Ling Xiao at the door a little embarrassedly. She had thought that this man would be angry for a long time, but he was fine during the meal, except that he spoke less...
Wang Po's eyesight was not good to begin with, so she didn't insist. She was worried and told him, "Okay, be careful on the road, Xiaoqi. If Ling Xiao's legs weren't so bad, I would definitely ask him to take you back."
"It's okay, Auntie. I don't mind. You can just go to our house and go directly there. I'm leaving now."
Meng Qidi quickly turned around and crossed the bridge. She really didn't care about these things. She had lived for so many years in her previous life and she was not a little girl anymore.
If Ling Xiao wasn't seven years older than her, she would have been embarrassed to marry a young man.
Maybe it was because of her military service, Ling Xiao put a lot of pressure on her. She even felt like she was facing people of the same age.
Yes, people of the same age. After going through that in her previous life, even if she started over again, she felt that her mentality had aged. The feeling that Ling Xiao gave her could not be ignored.
"I heard you are from Mengjiaxiang!"
An arrogant voice pulled Meng Qidi back to her distracted thoughts. She looked at the person blocking the road in front of her. It was Ling Jinyue. She frowned slightly, "What's the matter?"
The little girl has a lot of things to do, why go to her when you can't get the love you want? Wouldn't it be better to go to Ling Xiao?
Ling Jinyue looked disdainful, "Can't I come to you if there's nothing wrong? Miss Meng, I warn you, don't be complacent! Brother Ling Xiao will see through you sooner or later!"
"Okay, he'll see clearly. Please make way. I want to go home."
Meng Qidi avoided her. She really didn't have time to waste with a little girl.
It was getting late when she came out of Ling's house. There was still a section of mountain road to go out of Ling's village, so she had to go back early...
The other party ignored her completely. Ling Jinyue felt humiliated. She stamped her feet in anger and shouted at her back, "Don't you dare tell me your name!"
"I dare not! Comrade, go back early, it's not safe outside." Meng Qidi's voice came, but the person was walking farther and farther away, and faster and faster, as if he was afraid that she would catch up with him.
Ling Jinyue was so angry that she jumped up and down. This woman was really cunning!
After getting rid of that little girl, Meng Qidi breathed a sigh of relief and felt that she was really careless when she talked to Ling Xiao last time.
He already has a girl he loves in the village, and if there is one in the army as well, that would be terrible. Her original intention was just to leave the Meng family, not to help him solve his romantic problems...
Meng Qidi sighed and suddenly frowned. She turned her head subconsciously. There was no one behind her. Her heart beat faster and her pace quickened.
This place is already a mountain road. She had escaped countless times in her previous life, so she could sense any slight movement. Someone was following her!
She quickened her pace, even walking closer to the thatched grass nearby. When she turned a corner, she tilted her body and fell into the thatched grass. Everything around her became quiet...
A minute later, the figure who had been following came out jogging. After looking around, no one was found. It was as if Meng Qidi had disappeared out of thin air.
He cursed and said "What the hell!", as if he remembered something. He looked around nervously and trotted back the way he came...
A few minutes after the man left, Meng Qidi's voice appeared. After confirming that there was no one there, she quickly walked towards home.
She knew that many people in Lingjia Village, a lazy village, had bad intentions. Next time she came, she would have to come earlier. It would be unsafe to come too late.
When I returned to the village, it was already dark. I took out the dirty clothes from the space while no one was around, washed them in the stream by the roadside before carrying them back.
If you don’t wash it clean, you won’t have any clean clothes for tomorrow.
"Where have you been? Why did you come back just now? Why didn't I see you in the fields today?"
Zhao Hong came out of the house and saw her little daughter hanging clothes in the yard, feeling a little unhappy.
Meng Qidi hung up the clothes neatly, with an indifferent look on her face, "I forgot to tell you that I'm not going to the fields now. I'm going to repair the reservoir."
Would Zhao Hong care about her? Is it possible? She now remembered one thing. At this time in her previous life, Zhao Hong always liked to ask her to help her hoe the fields, but she was lazy beside him.
I guess he wanted to be lazy again this time, but she was not here, so he got angry and embarrassed.
"You are such a scoundrel, aren't you? You have good land to till and you build a reservoir instead. Don't you know that you can't keep yourself hungry? And it will ruin your clothes!" Zhao Hong cursed almost as soon as she opened her mouth.
Meng Qidi finished drying herself and turned around, raising her eyelids lightly with a slightly cold look in her eyes.
Zhao Hong swallowed the rest of her words and even took a step back.
Meng Qidi withdrew her gaze calmly, and said softly, "Don't talk to me like this next time. I'll be scared. When I'm scared, my temper is usually not very good. Mom, you should have seen it."
Zhao Hong thought of the small knife in her hand and nodded with difficulty.
As the mother and daughter were talking, the yard door was pushed open and several people walked in.
"I don't care. I want to eat an egg in the morning."
A cute voice sounded. If it wasn't so rough, it might not be so scary.
Meng Qidi raised her eyes and looked over, then half-closed them. Who would have thought that Sun Fang, who had been captured, could actually make a comeback...
As if she noticed Meng Qidi's gaze, Sun Fang touched her belly with a smug look on her face and stomped her foot, "Jianguo, I'm talking to you!"
Meng Jianguo followed her, looking embarrassed, "I really can't do anything about this egg. The food in this house is all in my mother's hands..."
Sun Fang hit him angrily and went back to her room angrily.
Meng Jianguo looked helpless. Seeing the mother and daughter of the fourth family looking at him, he smiled bitterly, "She's pregnant, two months..."
If she wasn't pregnant, and if it was a boy, he wouldn't have gone to bring Sun Fang back home. Everyone in the family, young and old, saw how embarrassed he was...
After saying this, he quickly returned to his room.
Meng Qidi sneered and walked towards the stove, trying to cover up her mistake.
"Xiaoqi, where are you going?" Zhao Hong shouted hurriedly.
"I didn't come back at noon. Can't I find something to eat?"
“But…but…” Zhao Hong opened her mouth several times but could not utter a word. Yuzhen had not come back to cook dinner yet. She was the one who cooked the dinner. If Xiaoqi took it, how could she…
Meng Qidi was too lazy to care about her. She went straight into the kitchen, picked up four sweet potatoes and a bowl of thick porridge, and went back to her room.
She threw the sweet potato into the space and saved it for eating at the reservoir tomorrow. She probably wouldn't have anyone left any food for her in the morning.
As for the porridge, it was estimated that the Meng family was not in the mood to eat it at night, so she might be able to have a meal. She glanced at the porridge in her hand, found an enamel jar from the space and poured it directly into it.
When she came out with the empty bowl, Meng Yuzhen was already in the kitchen. She turned her head to look at the bowl in Meng Qidi's hand and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing with the bowl?"
"Drink some water." Meng Qidi threw the bowl on the stove, turned around, and stopped at the door. "When is dinner?"
Meng Yuzhen no longer wanted to answer, so she could only respond, "Right away."
"Hurry up, I'm hungry." Meng Qidi ordered without any courtesy and went straight to the main room, intending to find a place with an excellent view to watch the show.
Meng Jianguo was able to forgive Sun Fang for the sake of the child, but I wonder if other people would feel disgusted.
