Meng Qidi rolled her eyes at him. Why did she feel like he was scolding her as well?
However, perhaps she had dug up Meng Yuzhen's ancestral grave in her previous life, otherwise why would Meng Yuzhen have killed her for no apparent reason in her previous life?
The two of them sang the same tune, and Meng Yuzhen was speechless on the spot. She stomped her feet in anger, covered her face and ran back crying.
"You're quite good at talking." Ling Xiao looked away calmly, "Aren't you afraid that she'll tell her family?"
"You're not weak either, just sue me." Meng Qidi shrugged nonchalantly, "Do you want to go around again? New son-in-law?"
So what if she sued? What can the Meng family do to her...
"Go back, put the things on the table in the living room in your room later. They are for you."
Meng Qidi paused, "Then you might as well give me some money privately. I guess I won't be able to see those things when I go back."
It's embarrassing to say that she is still penniless...
I don't think I'm that great after rebirth...
Ling Xiao pursed his lips and said, "The matchmaker is here, they won't move because they care about their reputation. You can go back and get the room directly."
"Why are you giving me such a nice gift?" Meng Qidi asked suspiciously. Didn't she say she didn't want a betrothal gift?
"Is it okay if I have a lot of money?"
Ling Xiao was a little upset. He felt that if he came empty-handed, it would make the girl feel wronged.
"You might as well keep it to supplement your household expenses."
She had a better idea of his family's situation. She learned from Ling Cheng that Ling Xiao's previous allowance had probably gone into his cousin's pocket.
The money he has in his hand is probably from this subsidy.
Ling Xiao was silent. Every family has its own problems. It would be better to wait until she gets married before discussing the Ling family's affairs.
The two walked in silence until they reached the door of their home, and Meng Qidi suddenly spoke.
"I never said that to Meng Yuzhen, and I don't think you have a lame leg. You were injured for the country, so you are a hero."
Although she didn't know why he was injured, Ling Xiao's position deserved respect, defending the country, instead of calling him a cripple all the time like Meng Yuzhen did.
hero?
Ling Xiao was stunned. Since he came back from being injured, what he heard most was that he was useless and would be a useless cripple from now on.
I didn't expect that this fiancée, who I had only met three times, would actually call him a hero...
Ling Xiao lowered his head and chuckled. After being depressed for a few days, his mood suddenly became brighter. For the first time, he found that he was quite easy to satisfy and could be appeased with just a few words.
"why are you laughing?"
Meng Qidi felt a little creepy by his smile. Was she wrong?
Didn't he sacrifice himself for his country?
"I believe what you say."
As to whether he believed the first or the second part of her words, it is unknown.
Meng Yuzhen ran back crying and wanted to complain, but it was obviously impossible. As soon as she entered the kitchen, she was kicked out by Meng Daqiang in disgust. He was not happy to see her crying because she didn't get the betrothal money!
Ling Jinming, who had been missing, appeared when the two came back and helped move the wheelchair in.
Meng Qidi was forced to help Ling Xiao jump into the threshold.
I don’t know who was conscious enough to clean the yard.
People were still chatting in the main room when Ling Xiao came in and glanced at the things on the table.
"Jin Ming, leave those things and a can of malted milk and help deliver them to your sister-in-law's room."
The people who were talking in the room were slightly stunned, even the calm Old Lady Meng was stunned.
Ling Jinming quickly responded, "Okay, brother."
Ling Xiao turned around and asked, as if he hadn't seen it, "Which room is yours? There are a few clothes in there, do you like them?"
From the time I met Meng Qidi till now, every time we met, she wore the same clothes. I guess she didn't have any change of clothes.
Meng Qidi coughed lightly, "The room at the end of the west side, the door is not locked."
She didn't expect Ling Xiao to speak so directly, but she seemed to sense a little bit of ill intention. Was he doing it on purpose?
Old Man Meng couldn't sit still any longer. "Um... Ling Xiao, how can you move all the betrothal gifts you sent into Xiao Qi's room? This..."
Ling Xiao said, "Who said this is a betrothal gift? It's just a small gift for Xiao Qi. The malted milk was originally for her to nourish her body. She is too thin. Now she stays here just to show her filial piety. Besides..."
Ling Xiao paused and grinned, "Besides, if it was in ancient times, the betrothal gifts would also be taken away by the girl after she got married, right?"
The two elders of the Meng family were speechless. Ling Jinming swiftly carried the remaining bags to Meng Qidi's room.
Looking at the two elders' changed faces, Meng Qidi felt particularly relieved. It was too bad. Nothing was more painful than cutting flesh from their hearts...
I guess they had already taken everything on the table for themselves, so they were just trying to save face by not taking anything in.
The harmonious atmosphere in the room was disturbed by Ling Xiao, and it became a little subtle. However, he seemed unaware of it and asked in a low voice, "Can you protect the things I gave you?"
Meng Qidi twitched the corners of her mouth, glanced at the old lady who was about to get angry, and suppressed her smile.
"No need to protect it. Grandpa and grandma wouldn't steal something like this from me. Besides, it's not something precious. Grandpa and grandma definitely wouldn't want it."
The two seemed to be whispering, but their voices were quite loud. If the old woman hadn't held his hands, Old Man Meng would have almost gotten angry.
At lunch time, the two elders of the Meng family looked unhappy, Zhao Hong's face was gloomy, and Meng Yuzhen's eyes were also red, probably because she was scolded by Meng Daqiang in the kitchen.
Sun Fang, relying on her pregnancy, held her waist and sat down at the main table. She glanced at Ling Xiao, whose profile she could only see across from her, and smiled.
"Xiao Qi is a good-looking man. Yu Zhen was really mean at the beginning. How could you do that? It's so unkind."
