After putting Ling Xiao down, Meng Qidi took a breath. Although she was considered tall among women, at about 1.7 meters.
But it was still a bit difficult to carry a man who was over 1.8 meters tall.
No one else saw it, and Ling Xiao was not embarrassed to be carried in by the woman. He leaned against the pillar and glanced at the panting woman.
"Should I be thankful that someone will do the heavy work at home from now on?"
Meng Qidi looked up at him and said, "If you want to treat me as a farmhand, that's fine."
Before she met Ling Xiao, she thought this man was a good person with a good temper, otherwise he would not have died for a stranger like her.
That's what she thought when she was in the hospital.
It seems that even after rebirth, she is still blind. How can this person be a good person? She is obviously a bad person!
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows, glanced at the wheelchair in the room, turned around and let Ling Jinming help him in and sit down.
The Meng family's yard was dirty, and the main room was still messy, filled with all kinds of small stools, and there were a few lame ones.
The room was dim, and there was only a calendar on the dark wall.
He narrowed his eyes slightly in some discomfort.
"My nephew is here? Xiaoqi, what are you lingering at the door for? Come in quickly." Meng Daqiang's voice was particularly enthusiastic.
Meng Qidi walked in, pulled a stool and sat down at the bottom.
"We are talking about business. What is a girl like her doing here? She should stay away from us." Old Man Meng frowned, looking somewhat displeased.
Meng Daqiang smiled and said, "Dad, what you said is wrong. What's wrong with a girl? A girl can also hold up half the sky."
He is waiting for the bride price!
Glancing at the gifts on the table, Meng Daqiang was very satisfied. Even though Ling Xiao had a lame leg, he still knew how to be polite. It was estimated that the betrothal gifts he would bring out later would be quite a bit.
Old Man Meng snorted and ignored the father and daughter. He talked to the matchmaker about the marriage of Meng Qidi and Ling Xiao...
The two people at the bottom were sitting with their eyes on their noses and their noses on their hearts, as if they really didn't know each other.
After a long while, the matchmaker smiled and said, "Then their marriage is settled, and it can't be changed, right?"
Old Lady Meng glared at her youngest son, "Don't change!"
If this boy hadn't allowed Yuzhen to mess around with the marriage exchange, she wouldn't have to be humiliated now?
It would be fine if one of them was not ambitious enough, but the other one insisted on marrying a cripple, causing her to be strangled so much that she couldn't even get the bride price!
"Okay, then it's settled." The matchmaker smiled readily.
Meng Daqiang was slightly stunned. "Wait, you're not going to give a betrothal gift? I can't tell you how much it is, but at least you have to show some appreciation, right? Ling Xiao, this is not something I, your future father-in-law, want to say to you. How can I trust you to hand over the girl to you if you're like this?"
Meng Qidi, who did it, twitched the corner of her mouth. Her father didn't go to the hospital last time and didn't know that there was no betrothal gift.
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows, "Uncle, didn't they tell me that my betrothal money was paid by Xiao Qi's sister? You should ask her for it, yes, and the dowry money."
"Why?" Meng Daqiang was shocked. Why?
Ling Xiao looked at Old Man Meng, "Uncle Meng, do you want me to tell you?"
Old Man Meng coughed lightly, "Whatever you say, the betrothal money Ling Xiao gave me is here, and I have also prepared the dowry for Xiaoqi. Don't worry, Xiaoqi will need it when she gets married."
Meng Daqiang was anxious, "No, Dad, why should I give you the betrothal money when I marry my daughter? If you need money, go to my third sister."
Being asked for money by his youngest son in front of others, Old Man Meng was just annoyed, "Shut up! What's wrong with me taking some money? Your whole family eats and drinks at home, and you don't see that you earn much work points. If you want money, you can divide the family!"
Meng Daqiang was speechless after hearing what Old Man Meng said. He stood up uncomfortably and said, "I'll go cook."
After his troublesome son left, Old Man Meng felt much better. The fifth son's marriage was settled, and he should worry about Meng Yuzhen. He couldn't let her suffer in the family.
Several adults in the family were talking to the matchmaker, and Meng Qidi and Ling Xiao were sent out, saying that they were to go out and have sex.
Ling Jinming helped move the people out and then found an excuse to go out and play.
"Where do you want to go?" Meng Qidi asked. In her two lifetimes, she had never been alone with a man.
The fool in her previous life had the intelligence of a few years old, and he believed everything she said.
She is not very good at talking and she made this guy very angry last time, so this time, she will say as little as possible.
"It's all right. Just walk around. There are so many people in your house..."
Ling Xiao looked indifferent and not enthusiastic, and his words were just a courtesy.
"You'll know what a lively atmosphere is when we have lunch." Meng Qidi said, "Don't worry, they won't dare to make trouble when I marry them."
"So fierce? If you are so fierce and can intimidate the Meng family, why do you want me to help you? It can't be..."
"Not what?"
"Don't tell me you like me?" The man looked around. The people in Mengjiaxiang were much more diligent than those in Lingjiacun. Most of them were now cultivating the land and planting in spring.
Meng Qidi sneered, "It's not funny at all. Besides, they didn't dare to make trouble not because of me, but because they were scared by you."
He probably doesn't know that after the incident in the hospital, the two elders of the Meng family were a little afraid of Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao...
After walking for a while, Ling Xiao suddenly said, "You are so beautiful, aren't you afraid that I will regret it and refuse to divorce you in the future? You probably don't know that military marriages cannot be divorced."
"I'm not beautiful, I'm disfigured." Meng Qidi said, didn't he retire? Why can't retired soldiers get divorced?
Besides, when she cures his legs and his mother's eyes in the future, they should agree to divorce out of gratitude.
Ling Xiao pointed at his forehead and asked, "The disfigurement you mentioned is the injury on your forehead?"
Meng Qidi nodded, thinking that he couldn't see the back, "Well, it's because of my disfigurement that your ex-fiancée insisted on changing the marriage."
