Chapter 15: Worthy of Such Treatment
Shen Meng clenched his hands slightly, put them under his nose and nodded his head, looking at the two people with a choked voice.
"Thank you so much, Sister Guihua, Aunt Chen. I was young and ignorant before. When Zhenping was not at home, I had no idea what to do. It was just like living in my mother's house. I listened to my parents-in-law in everything. I raised my children the same way as others did. If I saw something wrong, I would be beaten with a stick without knowing the reason. Sigh, this time I really understand that everyone has their own fate. In the future, I will study hard, live a good life, and take good care of myself. This will be considered as doing justice to Zhenping. Sister-in-law, Aunt Chen, I will inevitably trouble you in the future."
"No problem, I'm so old now. If you don't understand something, just ask. We all came from a girl's family, and Auntie understands you. It's getting late, we'll go back now, and come to see you tomorrow. Take good care of yourself, Ha Xiaomeng."
"I won't stay any longer. There are a lot of things to do at home. Xiao Meng, you should listen to Aunt Jinling. Take good care of yourself and raise your child to be a good person. Your life will be fine in the future."
Seeing that they all stood up to leave, Shen Meng struggled to get off the kang to see them off. Tian Guixiang and Chen Jinling hurried to hold her back.
"What are you doing? I just told you to take good care of yourself. We are all from the same village, so there is no need to see you off. Be well, Sister Wang. We will go back soon. You guys are busy."
"Okay, Aunt Chen, Sister Guixiang, I won't see you off. It's not easy for your mother to get the things. You don't need so many good things. Take them home and feed yourselves and your children."
Shen Meng waved her hand, and Wang Guizhi quickly took the brown sugar eggs and dried vegetables they brought.
"Her aunt can't do this. We are very happy that you can come to see Xiao Meng. Where else can we ask for your things? Take them back quickly."
"Oh, Sister Wang, what are you doing? We are giving food to Xiao Meng. She is seriously injured. It's time to recuperate. Don't worry about it, just take it."
"That's right, auntie, these are not worth dreaming about. We still have them at home. You keep them for Xiaomeng to eat. Don't be so polite. I'm going to get angry if you keep doing this, auntie. I won't come here next time."
"That's not possible. After talking to you for a while today, I know that you are happy people. My family, Xiaomeng and my grandchildren, have asked you to take care of them. I have to trouble you on weekdays. I can't collect any more things. Take it quickly, take it quickly."
.......
Several people pushed and shoved out of the door, and pushed all the way to the front door. The noise was getting louder and louder, scaring the children who were eating in the kitchen to look out.
Shen Fugui picked up a piece of food with chopsticks for Lu Mingkai and said, "Don't look at it. They are just being polite and looking good. Your grandma will bring those things back soon. Don't worry."
He didn't want to tell the children clearly, but the little guys looked at them eagerly, as if they were afraid that they would really take the things away.
Sure enough, after a while, Wang Guizhi came back with those things. Lu Mingyang took a look and found that they were intact, without any loss.
Wang Guizhi carried the things into the room again, opened Shen Meng's kang cabinet, put them in, and looked at the mess in the room, feeling uncomfortable.
"The fourth son of the Lu family and his wife moved away without cleaning up. Look at how messy this room is. The mats in the west room have been lifted up, and there is not even firewood in the kitchen. If your father hadn't lost his face and went out to borrow firewood, we wouldn't even have dinner at night. Hey, my daughter, tell me how your life has become like this. You were so smart before you got married, but you were fooled by your mother-in-law. You are stupid now."
Shen Meng lowered her eyes and didn't say anything. Listening to Wang Guizhi's chatter, she felt inexplicably kind in her heart. When the dean's mother visited her when she was a child, she also chattered like this, and she felt kind in the same way.
"Look at me, I'm just talking nonsense. You must be hungry, Xiao Meng. Mom will go get you something to eat. Eat and then take your medicine. Sleep well at night. Mom will watch over you."
"Hey!" Shen Meng waited for her to leave before shaking her neck and scanning everything in the house. Zhou Jiaojiao and Lu Jiaxuan had packed their things very cleanly. Except for the furniture that her parents gave her when she got married, which was difficult to take away, the newspapers on the wall were all lifted up by the couple. It's
better to lift them up so that she doesn't have to lift them up again.
There are many things that need to be bought in the house. Wait a few days. In a few days, she can take the ox cart to the supply and marketing cooperative of the commune. Then she can arrange the house however she wants.
After Wang Guizhi brought the food, Shen Meng ate a little. Her head still hurt, so she lay down to sleep. After a while, Wang Guizhi brought a basin of hot water. She wet the towel and gently wiped Shen Meng's face and hands. She changed to a rag and wiped her feet.
Shen Meng woke up when she wiped her face. Her heart was trembling, but she didn't open her eyes to talk to her. Now she had to rest well and take good care of her body so that she could better repay the original owner's parents.
At night, Wang Guizhi watched over Shen Meng and woke up many times throughout the night. Shen Meng knew all of this, and only took a nap in the morning.
When Shen woke up, Wang Guizhi and Shen Fugui had already swept the yard, washed the clothes, and tidied the house and the outside. The children also went to the foot of the mountain and picked up some dry firewood to hang in the yard.
She was still busy when she went out. Wang Guizhi was very happy to see her come out.
"How are you, Xiao Meng? Are you feeling better? Doctor Lu said yesterday that as long as you don't have a fever, it's not a big problem. Are you hungry, my daughter? I stewed some eggs for you. Go and serve them to you."
"Thank you, mother. Thank you and my father for your hard work." "
You are our daughter. It's not my job to take care of you. Go wash your face."
"Okay!"
Shen Meng looked at Wang Guizhi with a smile. When she turned around, she happened to meet the eyes of the four children. Then she saw the four children turned their faces away at the same time.
Shen Meng: "..."
Don't be too obvious in your disdain!!!
After breakfast, Wang Guizhi and Shen Fugui had to go back. There were a lot of things to do at home. If they hadn't been worried about their daughter, they would have gone back last night.
At the daughter's house, they have to eat the daughter's food. If they eat more, the daughter and the child will eat less.
"Wait a minute, mother. Take this money and food coupons. Zhenping sends money and food coupons home every month. I don't need so much. The food provided by the production team is good, but it will hurt my eyes if I take it out. When I am well again, I will go home to see you and my father." She
is willing to risk her life for her child. This love alone is worthy of Shen Meng's treatment.
"Silly child, your parents don't want this. As long as you live a good life in the future, that's more important than anything else. Your father asked me to tell you, take good care of the children in the future. They are all good children, but you can't treat them like before." As Wang Guizhi said this, she pushed the bill back, tightened the pilled and white towel on her head, and was about to go out.
"Mother, take it. You and my father are so good to me. If I don't take it, I will feel unhappy. I know how our family lives. I will be obedient and live a good life in the future. But don't push away the good things. Keep them for yourselves. Take this money home and spend it. Even if the daughter gets married, she is still your daughter. It is my duty to respect you. Take it. If you don't take it, I will not go home in the future."
She stuffed the money into Wang Guizhi's arms, turned her head pretending to be angry, but her eyes were still observing Wang Guizhi's movements.
