Chapter 225 Lu Miao, a miserable life
Anyone can say nice things, but Tang Mei didn't really believe it. She just stood up and said:
"That's about it. I still don't know where Xiaobao lives."
He Hongjin and Chen Guifen immediately stepped forward to help carry things and lead the way.
Big cities have tall buildings and skyscrapers, but they also have dilapidated and poor areas.
But no matter how poor and dilapidated it is, it is still ten streets ahead of the real rural areas.
On the way to Fu's house, Tang Mei looked around carefully. The series of small adobe houses made her frown.
It was not until they arrived at the Fu family and saw that the accommodation conditions there were obviously better than those of other people in the team that Tang Mei's expression looked a little better.
"Miao girl, Miao girl."
Chen Guifen shouted, and soon a "Hey" came from the house in response.
Chen Guifen said with a smile:
"Come out and see who's here."
Chen Guifen didn't need to say much. Knowing that Lu Miao lived here, Tang Mei had already walked quickly into the house and bumped into Lu Miao who was coming out of the house at the door.
"Xiaobao!"
Lu Miao was slightly stunned.
Tears suddenly welled up in Tang Mei's eyes. She held her arm and looked left and right, pinched her arm and wrist and touched them up and down, just to see if she had lost weight.
At the end, Tang Mei's eyes fell on Lu Miao's belly:
"Why is your belly so big? Are you about to give birth?"
Lu Miao stood there in a daze without moving.
Chen Guifen and He Hongjin came into the house carrying things and said with a smile:
"Stop standing there and talking, come inside and sit down! Guihua, quickly make a cup of brown sugar water for my in-laws!"
Tang Mei sniffed, not knowing whether it was because she hadn't seen Lu Miao for a long time or what, but she wiped her tears in a panic.
Lu Miao frowned and asked:
"Why are you here?"
Her voice was soft, but Tang Mei could hear the coldness in it.
Suddenly, Tang Mei remembered something and asked weakly:
"Xiaobao, are you still angry about that? Auntie already knows she was wrong... From now on, I'll listen to you in everything, okay?"
"Marriage is such a big thing, and you didn't even discuss it with your family..."
Seeing Lu Miao's unhappy expression, Tang Mei quickly changed her words:
"Okay, okay, I won't say anymore. Come on, are you tired of standing? Auntie will help you sit over there for a while."
In front of the He family, Tang Mei's attitude can be considered domineering.
But in front of Lu Miao, Tang Mei was just like she was before in Beijing. She seemed to have no personality of her own and wanted Lu Miao to take charge of everything.
Lu Miao had her own considerations in mind, and since the He family members were all present, she didn't want to say anything to Tang Mei, so she softly introduced Tang Mei's identity.
When she introduced herself, she said that Tang Mei married her father, but she only called her "Aunt".
He Hongjin was confused for a moment and opened his mouth to ask something.
Chen Guifen kicked him under the table and stopped him from asking.
After chatting for a few more sentences, Chen Guifen gave He Hongjin a look, and using the excuse that there was still work to do in the production team, the couple left.
On the way, He Hongjin asked:
"Why didn't you let me ask just now? I thought it was my biological mother, but it turns out it wasn't..."
Chen Guifen glanced at him and asked:
"What are you asking? Does it make any difference? You have to poke people in the heart and make them tell you that because your mother died, your aunt married your father as a successor?"
"ah?"
He Hongjin opened his mouth wide, stunned and unable to react.
Chen Guifen sighed softly:
"Aunt, aunt, she is both aunt and mother... Miao girl has a hard life, and her aunt probably loves her sincerely."
"Don't ask those unnecessary questions in the future. Just treat Comrade Tang Mei as Miao's biological mother."
After Chen Guifen finished speaking, she quickly walked ahead and went home.
He Hongjin scratched his head and walked slowly behind. It took him a long time to figure out the general situation.
I used to think that Lu Miao was just a spoiled child, but I never expected that her life would take such a turn.
When the adults negotiated with each other, they said that they should treat her like their own mother, and so they treated her like their own mother.
But for a child, if she is not his biological mother, no matter how good she is, she still lacks some meaning...
Raised by your side since childhood, calling you "Mom, Mom" and treating you sincerely is nothing special.
But calling her "little aunt" all the time is just a blatant way of differentiating herself from her biological mother, isn't it?
He Hongjin thought about this and put it on Lu Miao, then shook his head and sighed inexplicably, feeling strangely heavy in his heart.
The He couple went home. At the Fu family, Tian Guihua took her son to the backyard to work, leaving space for Lu Miao and Tang Mei to reunite for a long time.
Lu Miao protected her belly and sat on the edge of the bed in the room.
Tang Mei moved the luggage into the room, then opened the boxes and packages, and took out the items inside one by one.
"This is a baby bottle, made of glass. Be careful when handling it, don't knock it over, it's not easy to buy..."
"Also, this is milk powder, and these are the clothes you wore when you were a child. They're still in good condition, having been worn once before, and the material is soft... They can be worn by any child, regardless of gender."
"These are the clothes you wear. I brought some for you. And these shoes... these sandals are a little high. You can't wear them now that you're pregnant. Can I put them away for you in the closet?"
Tang Mei was busy chattering away, and Lu Miao was looking at her quietly, stroking his belly with both hands. Suddenly, he shook his head and said:
"Put it there first, come sit down and talk."
Lu Miao patted his side.
Tang Mei put down what she was holding and sat down gently.
Tang Mei had noticed that Lu Miao's belly was big just now, and now that he was sitting down, it looked even bigger.
Thinking of Lu Miao's usually slender waist, and now carrying such a heavy weight, Tang Mei touched her bulging belly, wiped her tears with heartache and said:
"You've worked hard."
Yan Ba asked again: "Where is the child's father? I have been here for a while, but I still haven't seen him."
"He went to Tianjin."
Lu Miao said truthfully.
Tang Mei's eyebrows immediately furrowed. "Why are you going to Tianjin at this time? He will be relieved if you two are at home."
"I asked him to go."
Lu Miao grabbed Tang Mei's wrist that was stroking her belly, and emphasized with a cold expression:
"I'm very grateful that you can come and see me. If you want to stay here for a while, you can stay for a while."
"But the people here are very nice to me, and I've accepted them. I hope you won't apply your standards here and make things difficult for me."
The rice fish in the production team were about to come ashore, and Lu Miao planned to send a letter to Beijing to tell them the news of her pregnancy.
If Tang Mei heard that she was pregnant, she would definitely come over.
But the letter had not been written yet, and Lu Miao was really surprised that Tang Mei came over at this time.
But it doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter if it’s early or late.
Given Tang Mei's love for her, Lu Miao had already considered clearly what Tang Mei would do. Otherwise, she would not have dared to let Tang Mei come over.
But what Lu Miao didn't know was that Tang Mei didn't come here without any warning.
She spent a lot of time buying those things, and actually wrote a letter to Lu Miao before coming.
It was the last time when He Erge took the letter.
It’s a pity that Lu Miao saw the address in Beijing and put it in the bottom of the box without even looking at it.
