Chapter 145: Crooked Melons and Cracked Dates



"Hey, isn't this Cuihua's baby? Why are you holding him?" Someone suddenly called Lu Xiangxiang's name.

At this time, Miao Cuihua came to her senses and looked behind her, and saw Lu Xiangxiang holding the child.

"Think about it." She stood up in surprise. She had just taken out a piece of Chuchu's clothes to mend when she went out. The clothes were at her knees.

Because she was too excited, her clothes fell off her knees, and she didn't have time to care about it.

"Grandma." She greeted Miao Cuihua with a smile.

Miao Cuihua was so surprised. They say things smell good from far away, but things smell bad up close. This place was too far away. She hadn't seen her granddaughter for half a year. Even if she ran into the space, it was useless because she had never seen her granddaughter.

Now that her granddaughter has grown up and appears in front of her alive, how can she not be happy?

"You are Cuihua's granddaughter, right? I heard that you were admitted to Qing University and later found a job with a high salary. Otherwise, how could you have provided such good food and accommodation to such a large family?"

"This girl is very filial. Even after getting married, she still remembers to take care of her widowed grandmother in the countryside. Who says girls can't take care of the elderly?"

"Cuihua is so lucky to have such a good granddaughter to raise her." They only knew that Lu Xiangxiang was a doctor in the hospital, and nothing else.

But they know the doctors' salaries. After all, the current salary system is basically transparent and is based on level. There are no bonuses or anything like that. They only receive gifts during festivals and holidays.

Regardless, there is no doubt that doctors' salaries are high.

"By the way, has your granddaughter ever thought about remarrying after her divorce?"

"I have a few good young men here. There's a director whose wife died and he has no children. He's very handsome and would be a good match for your granddaughter."

"And my nephew is not bad either. He has a job as a projectionist but he has no wife at home. He has a child, a girl. If your granddaughter marries him, two boys and two girls will make a good family." The group of women sitting under the banyan tree and gossiping were almost all the heads of the family, or they were too old to work.

They get together because they have too much free time, so they always find something to do. They do a lot of things like matchmaking, because after all, if they become a couple, they have to give a thank-you gift to the matchmaker.

Miao Cuihua's face turned pale as she started cursing, "What kind of idiots do you want to introduce to my granddaughter? Bah! The director whose wife died and had no children, his wife committed suicide because she couldn't stand the beatings he gave her. And the projectionist's wife died because she got stuck while giving birth to her second child. She died because she couldn't go to the hospital. How dare you introduce such a person to my granddaughter? Guimei, you're making people question whether there's something wrong with the person you're introducing."

As the number one spectator, she knew a lot of secret information. This woman actually wanted to deceive her. It was unforgivable.

After saying that, she turned around, grabbed the woman named Guimei and slapped her twice. Miao Cuihua had been drinking spiritual spring water for years, and she looked completely different from her actual age. In addition, she had been working very hard over the years, especially the floor in the space, which she had cleaned up secretly.

So she was very strong and the woman was no match for her at all. Her face was swollen.

The others tried to stop her, but failed. Miao Cuihua kicked the woman twice again, and only then did she stop.

"If you dare to bring these ugly guys in front of me again, I will beat you again." After saying this, she tossed her hair and went home with them in a proud and heroic manner.

"I told that rotten heartless son to talk nonsense. Our family is so good, how can anyone be worthy of us? If there is anyone who is worthy, then it should be someone like Ziheng, okay?" Miao Cuihua had the urge to roll her eyes just thinking about it, but after she finished speaking, she glanced at her granddaughter carefully. Oh no, she had accidentally mentioned Zhou Ziheng just now. Her granddaughter...

A closer look revealed that Lu Xiangxiang was not angry at all.

"Okay, grandma, don't be angry. There's no need to be angry about such an irrelevant person." Lu Xiangxiang coaxed.

"Of course I won't argue with them. They are just short-sighted women." After saying this, she looked at Lu Xiangxiang, "Xiangxiang, why did you come back suddenly? Have you dealt with the matter?" Last time she said that she would not come back so soon. If she came back, it must be because the matter had been dealt with. She thought it would take half a year or a year, but she came back so soon. How could she not be surprised?

"It's done." She nodded to Miao Cuihua.

"Then you won't be going out again in the short term?" she continued to ask.

Lu Xiangxiang nodded. Miao Cuihua was so happy to get a positive response.

"Look, you've become so thin from being so busy lately. Look at your little face, it's so thin." Miao Cuihua felt sorry for her. Every time she saw her granddaughter coming back and looking so skinny with no flesh on her face, she felt distressed.

"How can I be thin?" She eats her meals well, and the food in the laboratory is not bad either. Meat and eggs are the basics, all for the sake of their health. After all, health is the capital of revolution.

But because of her heavy workload, she won't gain weight. She's not the kind of person who would put herself in a difficult position, so her grandma's worries are in vain.

Miao Cuihua ran to the kitchen to prepare food for her out of concern. As for the three little ones, they held her thighs tightly and wouldn't let go. They looked at you with their dark eyes, and even if they didn't say anything, your heart would be unconsciously melted by their eyes.

Seeing three of them looking at you with such wet eyes, your heart softened.

She hugged the three babies and kissed them for a while, "Do you miss your mother?"

"Very much." The three said in unison.

"How much do you miss it?"

They didn't say anything, but moved their little faces closer and kissed her on the face. Her face was successfully covered with a layer of children's saliva.

This was the situation Miao Cuihua saw when she came out. She found it a little funny and said, "Okay, come quickly and have something to eat. We'll continue after that."

"Come here every New Year and New Year, grandma will wash your faces. Look at your little faces, they are as dirty as kittens." As soon as Miao Cuihua said this, the three little ones came over obediently.

Miao Cuihua took a towel, wet it under the faucet, and wiped their faces one by one.

"A clean little face is more comfortable to look at."

After wiping their faces, the three of them ran to Lu Xiangxiang and watched her silently without disturbing her while she was eating.

After eating and washing the dishes, she saw the three still following her, so she touched their heads.

"Okay, you guys go out and play first. Mom still has something to say to your grandma."
