Chapter 366: We can be considered as a family
Lu Zhenping walked out of the hospital, still angry and upset. He looked at Shen Meng's calm expression and felt guilty. If he hadn't agreed to come to Beijing, he wouldn't have let Shen Meng suffer these grievances.
"Xiao Meng, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought you to Beijing. Don't worry, I won't let you suffer in vain today."
"It's okay, it's not a grievance, I fought back, didn't I? She can say whatever she wants, anyway, I won't be the one who is looked down upon in the future, let's live our own lives."
Lu Zhenping reached out and touched Shen Meng's hair, took her hand and walked to the side of the road, saw a tricycle not far away, and waved.
"Zhenping, Zhenping, wait a minute, sister-in-law, don't leave in a hurry, I have a car, I can take you wherever you want to go!"
Bai Yan ran out in a hurry, almost catching up with them.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and the tricycle over there also rode over.
"Are you going or not, comrade?"
"Let's go, Xiao Meng, you get in the car first."
Shen Meng nodded at him, and after getting in the car, seeing that the two of them wanted to talk, he took out a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from his bag.
"Master, please wait a moment, we are here to see the patient, we have some instructions, and we will leave immediately."
"Hey, hey, you are polite, it's okay, it won't be a problem for a while."
Bai Yan looked at Lu Zhenping apologetically, and he actually felt a little awkward in his heart. He didn't do anything wrong, why did he seem to be so ashamed.
"Well, where are you going? I'll drive you there. You came all the way to Beijing, and this happened on the first day. I feel bad. If you have any requests or anything during your stay in Beijing, just come and ask me."
Bai Shan and Commander Bai came out quickly. Seeing them talking at the door, they hurried over.
"Zhenping, Bai Yan is right. The attitude of the Yuan family is not the attitude of our Bai family. Your aunt wanted to come to see you this morning, but she was not feeling well. You met her when you were in the army and had dinner with her. You know what she is like. How about this, come to my house for dinner in the evening. You've been out early in the morning and it's hard. You can go back and have a rest."
Commander Bai waved at him, not wanting to force him.
Bai Shan was afraid that he would disagree, so he hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, come home for dinner tonight. Grandpa and grandma didn't get to see Zhenping, so they left some things for him. For the sake of the deceased, come home and take a look, at least take a look at the things that grandpa and grandma left for you, okay? Well, even if you don't want them, you can leave them to Mingkai, as if they were left by your grandparents for the child, okay?"
Lu Zhenping turned his head and glanced at Shen Meng, who nodded slightly. She had heard that Commander Bai had been very good to him, both openly and secretly, whether he was a soldier or a police officer in the provincial capital. Mingyang's children were gradually growing up, and even if they didn't want to recognize him, they could still treat him as a relative.
The prerequisite for all this was that they responded to Lu Zhenping with a guilty, loving, and compensatory mentality.
Of course, this was all calculated. After all, Lu Zhenping was very soft-hearted now. In the past, these family members were indifferent to him, but now it was not possible. He was also a man with a child and had to plan for the future of the child.
"Okay, Xiao Meng and I have something else to do, so we'll leave first. We'll go there later."
"Okay, okay, let Bai Yan pick you up. Four o'clock is fine. Bai Yan will pick you up at the guesthouse."
After Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng left the hospital, they asked the tricycle master to take them around the streets and alleys of the old city of Shangjing.
The master heard the hidden meaning of Shen Meng's words, which was to inquire about the price of houses in Shangjing. He had an idea in his mind. In addition to the old city, he also took them around the imperial city twice. Shen Meng didn't like some old alleys.
What she wanted to buy was a whole big yard. She was not interested in small houses.
"Hey, to be honest, the educated youth who returned to the city in the past two years have no jobs. There are a lot of unemployed young people in the city. There are people fighting every day in Houhai. The housing is very tight. But I heard that there seems to be a policy from the top to build commercial housing to solve the employment and housing problems of the masses. The courtyard house you want to buy will not be available for two years."
This is not what Shen Meng wants. She wants to buy two sets this year or next year and register them under Lu Mingkai's name. Although this guy is not in tune now, she can see that he has special organizational and leadership skills. It would be best for him to develop in Beijing in the future.
As for Mingyang's children, she had other plans. The children had grown up and had their own ideas. As a parent, she just wanted to leave them a way out as much as possible and provide them with more protection.
At noon, she invited the tricycle driver to have a meal and then returned to the guesthouse. She rested until 3:30 and got up to wash up.
When they got off the guesthouse, Bai Yan was already waiting for them.
"I'm already busy at home. I know that my sister-in-law likes spicy food, so I prepared some. You can try it later. My mother is cooking herself. Hey, I haven't seen her cooking for several years. It's all thanks to you."
"Is Mrs. Bai feeling better now?"
Bai Yan paused for a moment when he heard Shen Meng's call, then smiled and said, "Much better. When she heard that you were going to have dinner tonight, she was so happy. She is almost well now."
"That's good."
Shen Meng put her bag on a chair beside her, very casually, and Bai Yan didn't take it to heart.
When they arrived at the Bai family, Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng got out of the car and saw that all the people in the Bai family were waiting at the gate of the courtyard. Although it was a family courtyard, the environment was quiet and the privacy was very high.
"Zhenping is here. This is Xiao Meng, right? I've wanted to visit you for a while, but my health isn't good enough. Fortunately you came to Beijing, otherwise I don't know when I could see you again." "
Aunt, don't say that. It should be Zhenping and I who came to visit you."
Lu Zhenping turned his head and glanced at her, then looked at Miao Feng and said, "Aunt."
When he spoke, everyone in the Bai family smiled happily, and Commander Bai's eyes were wet for a moment, but he was afraid that the young people in front of him would laugh at him, so he blinked, reached out and pinched the corners of his eyes, and wiped away his tears.
"Come on, come on, let's go inside and talk."
"Yes, yes, look at me, I was so happy that I forgot to greet people. Xiao Meng, Zhenping, come on, follow your aunt into the house."
In the living room, the nanny served hot tea. Everyone sat in the living room, looking at Shen Meng and Lu Zhenping like babies, very serious, afraid of saying or doing something wrong and making them unhappy.
"We brought this from our hometown, it's not worth much, just consider it as a token of our appreciation, you can put some in the soup when you usually make soup, it will replenish your body."
Shen Meng took out two old mountain ginseng and a ganoderma from his bag. In addition to these two things, there were also several gift boxes, some of the most advanced watches of this era, pearl necklaces and perfume and skin care products, one for each person.
Commander Bai's was a smoke bomb, purely manual, and he couldn't let it go as soon as he got it.
