Zhao Hong raised her chin with some pride, "Your sister hasn't come yet, she must have given more than you!"
"Just wait and see!" Meng Qidi pulled Ling Cheng outside. Talking to her was simply a waste of her time to make money.
"Stop! Leave the candy to me! You're wasting it like this..."
Zhao Hong's voice was silenced by Ling Xiao's gaze.
Ling Xiao turned around calmly, and a cold voice rang out, "Ms. Zhao, let me remind you, next time you yell at Xiao Qi, don't blame me for not giving you face..."
Zhao Hong stared at Ling Xiao's back and her face turned red with anger. What was he so proud of? He was just a soldier!
Perhaps considering Ling Xiao, Meng Daqiang's house did not have a threshold, but only a steep slope.
So Ling Xiao came out of the house by himself. Meng Qidi and Ling Cheng were already surrounded by a group of girls and aunts.
A few minutes later, the group of people suddenly made way, and Meng Qidi pointed directly at Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at the two of them. Sure enough, the scarves on their heads and bodies were gone...
Meng Qidi strode over and gently straightened Ling Xiao's messy bow tie, "Hey, it looks good on a man if he ties it like this, right?"
The unique fragrance of the girl hit his face, and Ling Xiao tensed up and forgot to avoid her.
However, when he was distracted for a moment, Ling Xiao was surrounded by a group of women. They were all chattering and he frowned slightly.
Someone couldn't help but reach out to study the tie on Ling Xiao's collar.
Meng Qidi quickly slapped her hand away, "Don't touch me, the part on his neck is the same as what I taught you, you can't learn it even if I teach you step by step, and you can't learn it even if you watch."
"What's your attitude, Xiaoqi? You protect your man so tightly, but you don't let us see him. Be careful, we don't want him anymore."
The person who was speaking was Liu Xuemei, and seeing the two interacting, she couldn't help but tease them.
"Come on, come on, return the goods!" Meng Qidi stretched out her hand directly.
Liu Xuemei pressed her pocket tightly and said, "You wish. I won't give it to you."
The crowd watching burst into laughter.
Ling Xiao raised his eyes and looked at the girl beside him, his gaze was so gentle that he didn't even notice it.
Liu Xuemei felt relieved now. Although this man had a bad leg, he treated Xiao Qi well and he was also good-looking.
Soldiers are all responsible. Although they will be discharged in the future, with the subsidy, they can probably transfer to civilian jobs. It shouldn't be difficult for Xiaoqi to stay in the Ling family...
One towel can be used for multiple purposes and everyone wants it, so almost every woman in the group holds one and then leaves with satisfaction.
The crowd dispersed, and Ling Xiao chuckled, "Sold out?"
"Well, it was perfectly cleared, and you two deserve the most credit."
The only part of Meng Qidi's silk scarf left was the one tied on her head.
The little girl only had two strips left on her head.
"Hehe, uncle, I can also help the family make money!"
Ling Xiao rubbed her head helplessly, "Yes, besides your aunt, you are the most capable one in the family."
Meng Qidi glared at him, "Who are you talking about?!"
"Praise you! Praise you."
"Yuzhen, you are finally here. Did you have a hard journey?"
Zhao Hong's voice interrupted the warmth of the three people.
Meng Qidi turned her head and saw that Meng Yuzhen and Nie Zheng had already entered the yard, and Nie Hai walked in with a bag and a smile on his face.
"In-laws, congratulations!"
Meng Daqiang quickly stood up and greeted them, "You're welcome, thank you. I'm sorry to bother you to go there in person. Zhao Hong, take Yuzhen and Xiao Nie to sit inside."
Nie Zheng is not a normal person, and he cannot let him be exposed in front of relatives and friends, otherwise it will not only bring shame to him, but also to the Nie family.
Nie Hai was very satisfied with Meng Dahai's action. He exchanged a few words with him and walked towards Ling Xiao.
"Captain Ling, you came earlier than us today? Didn't you drive here? We'll be back in the afternoon, can I take you there?"
Meng Qidi nodded to him and greeted him, then pulled Ling Cheng to her side.
Ling Xiao looked up, "Mr. Nie is coming from the city after all, so he will be slower. I won't bother Mr. Nie this afternoon, as our little girl is prone to motion sickness."
Being rejected, Nie Hai was not annoyed. He looked at the little girl in Meng Qidi's arms and said, "Is this your brother's child? This girl is so pretty."
"Grandpa, you are handsome too." Ling Cheng blurted out while lying in his aunt's arms.
Nie Hai was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "This girl is so cute, come here, grandpa will give you a little toy."
Nie Hai rummaged in his pocket for a long time before pulling out a pen and handed it over.
Meng Qidi quickly refused, "Uncle Nie, you are too polite. Xiao Chengzi is still young and can't use such expensive things."
She brought back a lot of pens, but none of them were as good as this one. I estimate this pen costs at least fifty yuan each.
"Who said it's useless? Give it to this girl so that she can study hard in the future." Nie Hai said with a hearty smile, "If you don't mind our disrespect last time, you can take it."
Ling Xiao said calmly, "Then let's continue."
Meng Qidi nodded gently and patted Ling Cheng. Ling Cheng then took the pen and said, "Thank you, Grandpa. I like it very much."
"Hahaha, as long as you like it."
Ling Xiao raised his eyes and looked at him, "Mr. Nie gave me a fountain pen. It's not like he doesn't know the national conditions. Is studying useful..."
"Why didn't it work?"
Nie Hai paused, glanced around, and then lowered his voice, "For the sake of our relationship, I'm reminding you that you two should be prepared. Don't lose your knowledge."
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, as if thinking about something.
There was a hint of surprise in Meng Qidi's eyes. Could it be that Nie Hai already had inside information?
Or is it that the higher authorities are preparing to resume the college entrance examination? Then she shouldn't have to hide anything anymore.
"No more talking. I'll go in and give the gift."
Nie Hai shook the bag in his hand. "By the way, how much did you send? We can't go past you."
Ling Xiao turned his head to look at Meng Qidi, he had no idea how much she had given.
"Two bolts of cloth, a can of malted milk, and twenty dollars."
No matter what purpose the other party had in revealing the news about the college entrance examination, Meng Qidi still told him her gift list.
Of course, she was not afraid that the other party would surpass her and she would lose face. If she gave more gifts, Meng Dahai would be the one who made the profit.
Meng Yuzhen and Nie Zheng didn't sit in the room for long before they came out. The Nie family was not there, and she didn't want to be with the fool for a moment.
As soon as she walked out of the room, she saw Zhao Hong going upstairs, and she quickly grabbed her.
"Mom, save me! I can't stand it. I have to feed that idiot..."
"Hey, ancestor, keep your voice down, Nie Zheng's father is still downstairs!"
Zhao Hong quickly grabbed Meng Yuzhen and lowered her voice.
"mom……"
Zhao Hong turned her head and glanced at the stairs. "By the way, have the Nie family found the electrical appliances you brought as a dowry?"
Meng Yuzhen shook her head slightly, looking aggrieved, "I don't know either. The Nie family has electrical appliances, so those things are still in the room. Why did you suddenly think of this?"
Zhao Hong opened her mouth for a long time before saying, "Nothing, just asking casually. Let's go and take Nie Zheng downstairs for lunch. It's almost time."
Meng Yuzhen had a little doubt in her heart, but it has dissipated. "Oh, by the way, what did Xiaoqi give you?"
"Stop talking about it. Who knows what she gave? You probably gave more than her."
When talking about her youngest daughter, Meng Yuzhen looked disgusted.
