Meng Daqiang wanted to pull her into the house.
Meng Qidi walked past him and out of the kitchen, and really walked towards the main room.
Meng Daqiang hurriedly followed, "Girl, you're going to enter dressed like this?"
Meng Qidi glanced at herself. She was not wearing the clothes she bought yesterday. She was still wearing the patched clothes she had bought before. "Is there something wrong? Are you sure you want me to dress up?"
Meng Daqiang was unable to speak and could only watch Meng Qidi walk in.
Meng Qidi suddenly appeared, and the happy atmosphere in the room froze in an instant.
"Why are you back?" Old Mrs. Meng frowned slightly.
"I didn't go out, I just fell asleep. Am I unwelcome if I come in?" Meng Qidi glanced at the nervous Meng Yuzhen, pulled out a stool and sat down.
She didn't mean to ruin Meng Yuzhen's marriage, she just came to watch the fun.
"Who is this?"
Only one elder and the matchmaker came from the Nie family. When they saw Meng Qidi coming in, they asked suspiciously.
Meng Yuzhen was afraid that Meng Qidi would mess things up, so she said anxiously, "My cousin."
Cousin? Meng Qidi lowered her eyes with a half-smile.
Are you panicking now?
The Nie family didn't pay attention to Meng Qidi. They asked and then stopped caring. They said to the two elders of the Meng family, "My dear relatives, it's settled then. Can you get married on the third day of May?"
"So urgent?" Old Mrs. Meng frowned slightly, somewhat disapprovingly. It was already mid-March, and one and a half months was too urgent.
"Don't worry, don't worry. This is fine." Old man Meng pulled the old woman and nodded repeatedly.
Meng Daqiang and his wife also nodded.
The Nie family gave a lot of betrothal gifts, and they brought a lot of things today, which showed that they were very generous. It turned out that people in the city are really generous.
The third day of May?
Meng Qidi raised her eyebrows. What a coincidence, she bumped into her. Should she ask Ling Xiao to come and send off the date tomorrow as well?
It would be best if the two sisters choose a day to go back together.
After the wedding date was set, the Nie family had lunch and then left.
Meng Qidi glanced at the pile of things in the main room, her eyes lowered. It was indeed a generous gift, with so many things given as a gift for the engagement.
Yes, the more urgent it is, the more gifts they send, which means one thing: the family in the county is afraid of more troubles, after all, the daughter-in-law can't run away until she is married home...
Ignoring Meng Yuzhen's smug look, Meng Qidi went to the captain's house to make a phone call. The captain's house was the only one in the village with a telephone, and it was a quota allocated by the higher authorities.
It had been raining all day and now the rain had stopped, the road was a little muddy.
I called Lingjia Village and waited for half an hour before the other end called back.
"Xiao Qi? What's wrong?" Ling Xiao's deep voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What day of May was your previous day?"
Meng Qidi asked in a low voice, feeling a little embarrassed to ask about the wedding date.
The other end paused. "Any day you want."
"Is the third grade okay? Meng Yuzhen is in the third grade."
"Sure." Ling Xiao didn't ask why. "Any other requests? I want Shen Xing to drive the car as our wedding car?"
"Well, it's all right. You can do whatever you want."
Meng Qidi felt embarrassed that the man suddenly discussed these things. She just wanted to confirm the date and was not concerned about the details of the wedding.
"Okay, as for the sewing machines, I'll have someone look out for one. How about a radio? I heard from Jin Ming a few days ago that his sister bought a bicycle. I'd like to get one for you, too..."
Ling Xiao asked for a bunch of them. Meng Qidi opened her mouth in shock, "This, that... isn't it too wasteful?"
They will get divorced when his leg heals. Isn't it a waste to buy so many things?
"No waste, we can use it all at home." Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"Then... do you have enough money?" She really had her doubts. Was the subsidy for being a soldier so high?
Seeing that he had nearly one thousand dollars saved yesterday, she suspected that he still had some.
Ling Xiao laughed out loud, "Are you worried that you won't have money to eat when you get married? Don't worry, I know what's going on."
A deep, magnetic voice reached her ears. Meng Qidi felt a little uncomfortable and lowered her voice a little.
"I'm afraid you'll waste too much. Besides, I don't need those..."
There are actually quite a few home appliances in her space, but they are difficult to take out. Can the cars in there be taken out and let Ling Xiao drive?
But...is it possible?
No, unless she thinks her life is too long...
He sighed, "Then why don't you send the days over here in the next two days?"
"Okay, the day after tomorrow?"
Ling Xiao's voice was low, which made Meng Qidi feel more at ease. "Well, you don't want to ask me the reason?"
"Are you afraid that she will find that it's not right after she gets married and regret it?"
Meng Qidi...
As expected, it’s hard to communicate with people who are too smart…
If I had known not to tell him, the Nie family's son would be a fool...
After talking to Ling Xiao for a few words, Meng Qidi hung up the phone, left fifty cents on the table, said something and went back.
"This girl..." Seeing the fifty cents on the table, the captain felt helpless. Why should she be so polite?
"This shows how to behave." The captain's wife picked up the fifty cents and put it away.
It's nothing like Meng Yuzhen, who gave two cents for the phone call as if the call was free.
When Meng Qidi came back, there were many girls sitting in the main room, most of them were educated youth, and Ge Mei was also there.
"Xiaoqi, are you back? Come in and sit down." Ge Mei greeted warmly, as if this was her home.
Meng Qidi still doesn't understand why Ge Mei, an educated youth, has such close relationship with their fellow villagers.
Good friends? She didn't believe it.
Meng Qidi didn't go in. She leaned against the door and watched the girls in the room praise Meng Yuzhen in various ways, as if they were praising Meng Yuzhen for her good vision and good fortune...
Seeing Meng Yuzhen's smug and boastful look, Meng Qidi felt a little bored and planned to go back to her room to read.
"Xiaoqi, you're back?"
Meng Yuzhen seemed to have just seen Meng Qidi and greeted her with a smile.
"Xiao Qi, your brother-in-law gave you a lot of good things today, take whichever you like."
Meng Yuzhen's face was full of smiles, with a hint of pride in her eyes. She said that the Nie family would definitely make her proud!
"Isn't this a bad idea? After all, it's your engagement gift." Meng Qidi walked in.
Meng Yuzhen wants to show off?
"What's wrong with that? We are sisters. I know the Ling family has no money. Just take whatever you want."
The more Meng Yuzhen saw Meng Qidi staring at her things, the more proud she felt. The Ling family didn't give her these good things. It would be best if Meng Qidi felt ashamed and ran away in anger.
Meng Qidi walked to the pile of things, raised her hand to pick up the watch from the pile of gifts, turned her head and asked with a smile.
"Thank you, sister. I have always wanted a watch, but the Ling family can't afford it. Sister, are you really keeping your word? Can you give me this?"
Meng Yuzhen was stunned. She didn't expect that Meng Qidi didn't run away out of jealousy. Instead, she took her favorite thing from the box.
Meng Qidi wanted to laugh as she looked at her dumbfounded expression, and played with her watch.
"Sister, I can't bear to part with it. Forget it. Good sisters are just talking..."
Tell me about it?
Being watched by everyone in the room, Meng Qidi brought up the issue again. Meng Yuzhen was very concerned about her reputation and was extremely angry with Meng Qidi. She took a deep breath and smiled with all her heart.
"Xiao Qi, what are you talking about? If sister said she was giving it to you, then it was giving it to you."
