After work, Meng Daqiang was busy preparing loaches at the stove, while Meng Qidi simply sat in front of the stove, lighting a fire and reading a book.
"What book are you reading? Hasn't your school been suspended for a year?" Meng Daqiang said nonchalantly.
He had found this book a few days ago. He didn't know what was wrong with this girl who suddenly started reading.
"Isn't this okay?" Meng Qidi said without even raising her head, "Otherwise, if I get off work early, my mother will say that I have nothing to do and am just hanging around."
It was a rare chance for her to live her life over again, and she didn't want to live a muddle-headed life with that group of educated youth like she did in her previous life, especially since the college entrance examination would be resumed in the second half of the year, and she was afraid that there wouldn't be enough time.
"Your mother has long hair and little knowledge, so don't bother with her."
Meng Daqiang said something bad about his wife nonchalantly, and lowered his voice while flipping the fish in the pot.
"Xiao Qi, do you have any money? Lend some to Dad to help him get by?"
Meng Qidi raised her head and said, "No, you know whether I have money or not."
Meng Daqiang was a little disappointed. He knew whether his youngest daughter had money or not. The girl was honest and had handed over all her work points. Where did the money come from? The betrothal money from yesterday was all with her father.
"but……"
"But what?" Meng Daqiang asked quickly.
"My sister might have it. Before, when we went to the hospital to see Ling Xiao, Ling Xiao refused to marry me, saying that it was not fair for us to exchange marriages. It was only after my sister took the initiative to say that she would pay for the betrothal gifts and my dowry that Ling Xiao agreed to the marriage exchange."
"Where did your sister get the money?" Meng Daqiang asked puzzledly.
He didn't go to the hospital that day, so he really didn't know about this matter. Where did that damn girl Meng Yuzhen get the money?
Meng Qidi stroked her chin, "Is it possible that she made the money through speculation in private? Or did she ask for it from the company in the city?"
Of course, she couldn't say that Meng Yuzhen might have borrowed it.
Meng Daqiang didn't care where his eldest daughter got the money from and looked impatient.
"I don't care where she came from. When she comes back, I'll ask her to give me twenty dollars. This stinky girl insisted that I sold your jade pendant last time. I really raised an ungrateful person."
If you ask him, those who raise children are ungrateful. It's good that his daughter is married, so it's easy for him to ask for money. Otherwise, look at his father. Even though he has many sons, they are of no use. He has to help them find wives, but he still doesn't get any money.
He had everything planned out. After his two daughters got married, he would just give each of them 20 yuan a month. He would not cause any trouble for them and would be much more comfortable.
"Dad, what do you want money for?"
Meng Daqiang, who was calm and composed, came to his senses and glared at his daughter, "You are nosy. You are meddling in my affairs too much. Bring back some more small fish tomorrow. This is too little. Not even one for each person."
Meng Qidi lowered her head. "There's nothing we can do about the large number of people in our family. If it were just the four of us, I would be willing to catch fish every day. Yesterday, my aunt-in-law even tried to steal something from me."
Meng Daqiang was furious, "What? How dare Sun Fang, a shameless person, steal my daughter's things!"
"Dad, stop talking. Unless we divide up our things, we won't be able to keep them at home." Meng Qidi sighed.
Split up the family? Meng Daqiang was slightly stunned. This was something he had never thought about.
A hint of smile flashed across Meng Qidi's lowered eyes. If she couldn't separate, then the Meng family had to split up. She really couldn't stand Sun Fang anymore, otherwise she was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and hit someone.
The father and daughter were talking in the kitchen, when Sun Fang's voice came from the yard, "Mingming, this is your aunt's house, you will stay here for the next few days."
Aunt? Meng Qidi raised her head suddenly. Who did Sun Fang bring?
Meng Daqiang was unhappy and said, "Watch the stove and make sure it doesn't burn. I'll go out and take a look."
When Meng Daqiang came out, in the yard besides Sun Fang, there was also her nephew Sun Ming from her mother's side.
Meng Daqiang's face darkened. "What does sister-in-law mean? The house is so small, and Yuzhen still lives outside. Where will you sleep when you bring someone back? In your room? Although your nephew is stupid, he is also an adult. Sister-in-law doesn't mind, but brother does too, right?"
Meng Daqiang can make people vomit blood just by opening his mouth.
Especially the incident where he hinted at Sun Fang, which made Sun Fang's hands tremble with anger, "Meng Daqiang, what do you mean by that! My mother's family has gone to visit relatives in the next province, and my nephew has nowhere to go. He came to my place, and I can't let him starve to death!"
Sun Fang glanced around and sneered, "Doesn't Xiaoqi live alone? My nephew is only seven years old. We are all family, so can't he just sleep on the floor in her room?"
The conversation in the yard could be heard clearly in the kitchen. A hint of coldness flashed across Meng Qidi's eyes. It seemed that this woman had not remembered the lesson from before.
Her nephew is stupid, with an IQ of only seven, but he is also over twenty years old. Living in the same room with her, does he want to destroy her?
Meng Daqiang is not someone who is easy to talk to. He kicked the stool at his feet away.
"What did sister-in-law just say? Let me tell you, your nephew is already stupid, so you don't mind if I break one of his legs, right?"
Even though he is a bit of a bastard, it doesn't mean that anyone can bully him.
"Meng Daqiang! This is against the law!" Sun Fang was shaking with anger.
"Hehe, if sister-in-law insists on bullying people like this, then I'll change it. Sister-in-law, tell me tomorrow, if everyone in the village says that the child in your belly is Meng Erliu's, will your parents drive you back?"
"Meng Daqiang!"
Meng Daqiang grinned, looking a bit like he wanted a beating, "Sister-in-law, I'm here! Does your nephew still want to sleep in my daughter's room?"
Sun Fang was so angry that she pulled her nephew back to the room.
At the kitchen stove, a smile flashed across Meng Qidi's face. Suddenly, she realized that her father was not completely useless. When it came to scolding people, he was just as good as her.
Meng Daqiang came in cursing, "What kind of person is this? He doesn't act like an elder at all. He knows you just got engaged, do you want to kill you?"
