Not far from the two of them, several pairs of eyes were watching curiously, and Ling Xiao's words caused several people to feel disgusted.
Meng Qidi withdrew her hand somewhat embarrassedly and glared at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao glanced at everyone and said, "The food is burnt, hurry up and get back to work. You know nothing about the happiness of having a wife!"
Several singles looked away silently, because he was the only one who had a wife...
Zhao Dezhong arrived late and took a sip of tea as soon as he entered the house.
After drinking a glass of water, the old man finally caught his breath. "Xiao Qi, don't blame me next time. If I hadn't been careful enough to lock up the experimental vegetable plot at the school, our achievements would have been in vain."
Meng Qidi was stunned. "What's going on?"
"That mother and daughter are not good people at all!" The old man was furious. "After you left, I went to the school to find the principal. The mother and daughter followed me, saying they were just hanging out at school. But when I came back, those two bastards were actually climbing the wall!"
"Why are you climbing the wall?" Meng Qidi was surprised.
"They must be trying to steal something. No, I can't let them live in my house, or our furniture will be emptied out. How about you two move back too?"
Meng Qidi said, "If you are not afraid that we will cause chaos in your home, just let us live there."
Zhao Dezhong was speechless. He almost forgot the grudges and hatreds between these two and those two.
only……
"What should I do? I'm really worried that the floor tiles at home will be pried up." He felt that Xiaoqi was inviting a wolf into his house...
"Just lock the important rooms." Ling Xiao said.
Zhao Dezhong sighed. What else could he do besides this...
Let Ling Xiao chat with the old man while Meng Qidi goes to help.
She took a lot of food from the space. Ling Jinyue had already prepared several dishes, including stir-fried bamboo shoots with bacon and stewed grass carp...
The space has the function of preserving freshness. When the food is taken out, it is as fresh as when it was put in. Ling Jinyue and the others did not doubt it and thought it was bought.
When the food was served, everyone's eyes lit up and they all gave thumbs up, praising Jin Yue Wenxi's good cooking skills.
Instead, Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows and picked up a piece of fish for Meng Qidi with a smile.
Others may not know, but he knows that this is what’s at home, the taste is almost exactly the same, and you’ll never forget it once you’ve tasted it.
Zhao Dezhong drank a bowl of soup. "It tastes like Xiaoqi's. It's great. It's a perfect replica."
Ling Jinyue looked very proud, "Of course, I learned this from Auntie, for sure."
“This is delicious too, not bad.”
Wen Xi snorted, "No match for Chef Ling, just barely up there."
Zhao Dezhong: "Look at this energy, it's exactly the same as your old man."
"You can choose not to eat." After getting along with the old man for a long time, Wen Xi is no longer afraid of the old man.
"Heh, that's rude. Go talk to your old man someday."
The house was bustling with activity, Zhao Dezhong's courtyard.
Meng Yuzhen and her daughter looked at each other in bewilderment in the yard. They searched the house and found that except for the study and the master bedroom, which were locked, there were only one or two dusty tables and stools in the rest of the house...
"How do we cook?" Zhao Hong asked anxiously. In such a big house, she couldn't even find a kitchen...
Meng Yuzhen pursed her lips and said, "Let's go out and eat."
Zhao Hong was anxious, "Yuzhen, this has been going on for a long time, and I don't have any money..."
Not only had she not received the money from her daughter yet, she also had no money to go out for dinner.
Meng Yuzhen's eyes were somewhat cold. "You only think about money all day long. You can't get anything done even if you ask me to."
If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would have been suspected.
Zhao Hong opened her mouth. She couldn't climb up that wall...
Meng Yuzhen gave her an unhappy look and said, "Wait at home, I'll buy it back."
She hadn't figured out how to tell Qiu Cheng about her life story, but she had to tell him before the family reunion party, otherwise if he was the last one to know, she would be the one to suffer.
She always felt that Qiu Cheng must know something, so... she decided to tell the truth.
"Huh? What's the matter?" Qiu Cheng was reading a newspaper with his glasses on, without raising his head.
Meng Yuzhen clutched the corner of his clothes tightly and looked at him nervously, "Cheng... Brother Cheng, my mother is here."
"Your mother? Who?" Qiu Cheng didn't even raise his head, nor did he mention that she was an orphan before.
"Zhao... Zhao Hong, you... you don't know her." Under the invisible pressure from Qiu Cheng, Meng Yuzhen unconsciously used the respectful title.
Afraid that he would vent his anger on her, she quickly said, "We met at the school gate today. She came to see me. I didn't expect that my mother was Professor Zhao, Zhao Dezhong's sister."
"Sister?" Qiu Cheng paused and looked up in surprise, "Is this true?"
"I don't know either, but this is good for us." Meng Yuzhen breathed a sigh of relief. Qiu Cheng didn't pursue her lying, so that incident made up for it.
"Tell me about it." Qiu Cheng's voice became a little deeper.
"No matter whether my mother is really Professor Zhao's sister or not, as long as he admits it, we can get closer to him and get the experimental reports and results."
Qiu Cheng chuckled, a trace of inquiry flashed across his eyes. Was this a coincidence or intentional? Or did Meng Qidi and the old man of the Zhao family know his purpose?
"Brother Cheng, what should we do now?" Meng Yuzhen asked. Her mother wanted two thousand yuan before she would do anything, and she didn't know if he would give her the money...
"Do as you wish. I only care about the results." Qiu Cheng's eyes fell on the newspaper again.
"Yeah." Meng Yuzhen nodded quickly. She hesitated when it came to asking for money. "Brother Cheng, um...my mom, I want my mom to do this so that we won't be exposed, but..."
Qiu Cheng raised his eyes, "She wants money?"
Being looked at indifferently by Qiu Cheng, Meng Yuzhen swallowed nervously and said quickly, "Well, she said she owed two thousand. Brother Cheng, it doesn't take two thousand. I have one thousand here."
