On the first day of the Lunar New Year, firecrackers were set off in every household, and Meng Qidi opened her eyes with difficulty.
She kept vigil until the early hours of last night and she was almost exhausted.
Without lingering upstairs, Meng Qidi changed into new clothes, washed up, went downstairs, ate something quick, and went to the village to pay New Year's greetings while carrying Ling Cheng.
There was no way, Ling Xiao was not at home, so the task of greeting the New Year fell on her.
The big and the small arrived at the intersection and met Ling Hanfang and Jin Ming who were waiting for them, as well as Ling Hanfang's daughter Ling Tian who was following them.
"Sister Xiaoqi." Ling Tian trotted over and pulled Ling Cheng.
"Let's go." Ling Hanfang smiled.
I used to have a stern face, but now I smile more often, especially now that I have picked mushrooms twice. Life seems to be getting better.
The four of them went from one end of the village to the other, visiting every household.
At the intersection, Meng Qidi separated from Ling Hanfang and the other two. After completing the task, she led Xiao Chengzi back. It would have been perfect if they were not carrying a large bag of things in their hands.
"Aunt, am I sweet today?"
"Sweet." Meng Qidi was quite helpless. Just because she was sweet-mouthed, she brought up so many things...
After receiving praise from her aunt, the little girl skipped all the way back.
Pushing open the gate, the little girl ran in excitedly, "Grandma! Hey... little grandpa? Why are you here..."
Meng Qidi came in and was a little surprised to see Ling Fugui in the yard. It has been a long time since she last saw her uncle Ling Xiao, right?
"What is this kid talking about? Your grandpa is here to pay New Year's greetings." Wang Jinhua said unhappily.
"Happy New Year?" Ling Cheng looked at him suspiciously, "Little Grandpa, why are you here alone to pay New Year's greetings? We usually bring our children with us. Little Grandpa, why don't you have any children? You're already a grandfather..."
Ling Fugui...
In response to Ling Fugui's visit, Meng Qidi simply nodded as a greeting and went back to her room to catch up on her sleep.
Ling Fugui took a secret look and wanted to get up, but thinking of Meng Qidi's fierceness, he shrank his neck and did not move.
When I went downstairs to eat lunch, Ling Fugui was gone.
In the afternoon, Wang Jinhua took Ling Cheng to the village to play, and Meng Qidi was tidying up in the yard alone.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I go back to my parents’ home to pay New Year’s greetings.
Meng Qidi rode her bike to Mengjia Lane alone.
"My dad is not at home?" Meng Qidi walked around the Meng family's yard, but did not see Meng Daqiang and his wife. Did he go back to his parents' home to pay New Year's greetings?
Old Mrs. Meng was furious. "Don't tell me. I went to the county to look for your mother."
Going to the county town every two or three days is really a hassle.
I thought I would have no more trouble after I got the passbook, but when I woke up this morning, he was gone again...
The more she thought about it, the more Mrs. Meng couldn't help but sit down and said, "This life is unbearable..."
Went to see Zhao Hong? Meng Qidi was a little confused. Did he run away or go out to play?
After lunch, Meng Daqiang came back with a sullen face, followed by Zhao Hong.
Seeing his daughter coming back to pay New Year's greetings, Meng Daqiang's expression eased a little, "Xiao Qi is here."
Meng Qidi greeted him calmly, "Dad, Happy New Year."
As for Zhao Hong behind him, he simply ignored her.
Old Lady Meng curled her lips and said, "Our little Qi came to pay New Year's greetings early in the morning. You guys are really good at this. You didn't even go back to your parents' home. You stayed out of the house all day. You have two daughters, but you treat them like one."
These two, one big and one small, are so crazy that they don’t even want a home.
Old Lady Meng targeted Zhao Hong, but Meng Qidi remained calm.
Zhao Hong glanced at them coldly and went straight into the house.
Old Lady Meng was so angry that she said, "Look at this spendthrift woman. It's ok that she doesn't go home every day, but look at her attitude. It's as if we owe her something."
Meng Daqiang was annoyed, "Mom, please calm down, it's good that people are back."
"What a bullshit! If it were you, I'd rather not have this daughter-in-law!"
Meng Daqiang was already annoyed, and after hearing what his mother said, he went into the house with a sullen face.
I had originally planned to ask Xiaoqi about her plans for this year, otherwise it would be inconvenient when she goes to school.
After being treated like this by my mother, he was no longer in the mood.
Meng Qidi stayed at the Meng family until two o'clock and was ready to go back. She was not the only one who came back to the Meng family to pay New Year's greetings today. However, she did not like talking to the cousins of the third aunt...
Compared to the Meng family, the Ling family is much more lively. In the past, the house was deserted, but now the yard is particularly lively.
Before Meng Qidi entered the yard, she heard the hustle and bustle inside.
"Second sister-in-law, has your daughter-in-law returned to her parents' home to pay New Year's greetings?"
"Yes, he went there early in the morning and will probably be back soon."
"By the way, what's Ling Xiao's wife's name?"
"Xiao Qi, you can just call her Xiao Qi."
Various words praising his wife by Wang Jinhua could be heard from inside.
Meng Qidi couldn't stand it anymore, so she pushed the door open and went in with a smile. Maybe they were chatting so happily inside that no one noticed who came in.
"Xiao Qi and the others live upstairs? That's great."
"Jinhua, how about you take us upstairs to have a look? We are planning to build a nice house like this one."
"Yeah, come to think of it, I haven't been to your upstairs yet."
Everyone was talking at once, and Wang Jinhua couldn't even say no.
However, upstairs is Xiaoqi's private space, and she really doesn't want to bring these relatives up there.
Wang Jinhua didn't have to worry about it for long. Meng Qidi walked in and gently pushed the person in front of her away.
"I'll take you up there to have a look, and I can help explain anything you don't understand."
Meng Qidi suddenly spoke, and the women who were talking suddenly fell silent.
After a while, a woman smiled and said, "Forget about this. It's getting late. I'd better go back first."
Someone took the lead, and the other women quickly stood up and said goodbye.
Now that Meng Qidi is back, who would dare to go to her house? After all, this woman is too tough to be messed with.
Finally everyone left, and Wang Jinhua breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't want to bring those people around her home.
"Mom, just refuse directly next time." Meng Qidi sat down. Otherwise, with the old lady's temper, she might not even move out of the house when she's away for half a year.
"Well, I'll lock the upstairs after you leave."
Wang Jinhua also knew that she could not refuse this. There was a door upstairs anyway, and she could just lock it. She didn't have to worry about anything. Moreover, the important things could also be locked inside.
Meng Qidi sighed and said, "Then just lock it."
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, people went to visit other relatives. This time, Meng Qidi did not go out, so Wang Jinhua took Ling Cheng with her.
In the next few days, Meng Qidi was busy with household matters. She was about to go to Beijing, and she was really worried if things were not handled properly.
I’m afraid something might happen to this old man and this young child at home.
After the household affairs were settled, Meng Qidi was busy dealing with other matters. Jin Ming was in charge of starting a company and renting a house. He made a lot of money from biogas without having to invest anything.
As for the mushrooms from Ling Hanfang, Meng Qidi had to persuade the couple to withdraw from it. As for the money she had invested before, the two of them returned it all to her.
