Chapter 373: I won't leave if you don't agree
Xiao Dai was washing clothes. When she saw Shen Meng coming back, she immediately smiled. But when she accidentally saw the person following her, she immediately put away her smile.
"Sister, you are back. Are you tired or hungry? I will make you something to eat."
"I'm not hungry. Mingyang's grandpa and grandma are hungry. Just give me two bowls of hot soup noodles."
"Oh!"
"Give me two poached eggs!"
Xiao Dai was already very reluctant. After hearing what Liu Sanjin said, she reluctantly shook her hands and turned to walk towards the kitchen. If Shen Meng saw correctly, she seemed to roll her eyes at Lu Changzhu and Liu Sanjin.
Liu Sanjin finally entered the yard, walked to the living room and sat down as if he were at home, poured two cups of hot water by himself, and seeing Shen Meng was indifferent, he did not dare to be too presumptuous.
"Old man, where have you been for so long? And Zhenping, what have you been doing? You don't go to work or go home. Is Jiusi trying to avoid us?"
Liu Sanjin did not want to question, but there was no news about Lu Jiaxuan yet, and Zhou Jiaojiao took the two children to live in the house allocated by the factory. No one cared about the family affairs. If the old couple did not help Old Zhou, what would be the future of the children!
"Ms. Bai Shuyu from Shangjing is ill and hospitalized. She wants to see Zhenping and the children. I didn't agree and went with Zhenping to Shangjing. I just came back this morning."
"What? Shuyu is ill. Is it serious? Hey, she is weak and can't stand a headache. Is Zhenping blaming her? Why doesn't he take the children to see her? After all, she is a grandmother and it is natural for her to want to see her grandchildren."
Liu Sanjin almost fainted when he heard what Lu Changzhu said.
His Jiaxuan didn't know what happened to her yet, but he was not in a hurry. The fox spirit from Shangjing was so anxious just because she was ill and was hospitalized. It would be better if she died of illness!
"Lu Changzhu, you old fool, it's not like she has no husband, why do you care so much? I think it's right for Zhenping not to bring the children to see her. She's still a mother, but you've been like a dead person for so many years. You haven't come to see Zhenping and the children once. Just pretending to send some money is enough. So pretentious."
"You, what are you talking about? She helped you in the past, too. How can you not remember her kindness at all?"
"What's there to remember? It's true that she helped me, but she has made my man miss her for so many years. She must be so proud in her heart, you shameless vixen."
"Liu Sanjin!"
"What are you shouting for? What are you shouting for? You think you're great just because you have a loud voice? What do you want to do? Are you really going to hit me for that old fool?"
........
The old couple were quarreling back and forth. Xiao Dai had already prepared two bowls of hot noodle soup, but the quarrel was not over yet. She brought them to the table and turned away, not wanting to see these two biased old people at all.
"Ahem, cough, cough, you two should stop quarreling. Eat first and then continue."
Lu Changzhu was now a man of honor. After hearing what Shen Meng said, he quickly shut up. He was really hungry. He coughed twice, took the noodles and started eating. He couldn't help but drink another mouthful of soup after taking a bite.
Xiao Dai was not a good person, but his cooking skills were impeccable. The eggs were fried golden and crispy, and the noodles were cooked smooth and delicious.
Seeing that he was eating happily, Liu Sanjin also ate it.
After two bowls of rice, both of them were sweating profusely, feeling extremely comfortable.
With food in their stomachs, they calmed down a lot. Liu Sanjin looked at Shen Meng, who was sitting with her chin in her hands, and felt sad. She thought that this woman was a greedy and easy-to-control woman. In just six or seven years, she not only had money and power, but also moved to the county town to live, and taught her children very well.
Sometimes she even thought that this woman was struck by lightning, otherwise how could she be so smart!
Thinking about her Jiaxuan and Jiaojiao before, the young couple were also fine, filial and lived a sweet life. She didn't know what happened. In the past few years, not only was their relationship not good, but the two children were also naughty. Now one of them is missing and the other has tried hard to distance herself from the relationship.
How did life become like this?
"Eldest brother's wife, your mother and I came here because of the matter of the fourth brother. It's been so long, and there's no news. You've been a high-ranking official in the county
for so many years, you must have some connections, can you please ask for help? No matter what, let us meet, okay?" "Yes, yes, don't you know your fourth brother? He has always worked hard. He has only been the village head for a few years. Everything he does is for the villagers. There must be a misunderstanding. He is a good man!"
The old couple looked at Shen Meng closely, but made up their minds that if she was unwilling to help, they would go to the provincial capital to find Lu Zhenping. He is a high-ranking official. If the fourth brother really did something bad, he would be embarrassed and might be implicated in the future.
Lu Changzhu didn't want to do this, but after all, Lu Zhenping was related to Shangjing. Even if others didn't care, Bai Shuyu wouldn't leave it alone. She was the kindest person, and married into a good family. She would definitely save the fourth child.
Shen Meng looked at their eyes rolling and raised his eyebrows.
"Okay, you two go back. I'll go ask someone in the afternoon. If there is any news, I'll go to your hometown to find you."
"No, I'm worried. Last time Zhenping told us to go back and wait for news, but there was nothing. We didn't see him. We won't go back. We'll stay here. We'll go back when there is news."
Liu Sanjin said and sat on the ground, intending to act rogue.
"Okay, if you don't go back, I won't go looking for anyone. I just came back from Shangjing and I'm exhausted. If you want to sit down, just sit down. I'm going to sleep."
"You, you dare, Shen Meng, you disobedient and unfilial thing, you really dare to ignore it, don't you want me to run out and make a fuss, so that you two will lose face?"
Shen Meng turned her head and looked at Liu Sanjin coldly.
She had been the secretary general of the county government for so many years. Once the aura of the superior came out, Liu Sanjin didn't dare to speak directly. Lu Changzhu saw that she was determined not to get used to them. He
quickly helped Liu Sanjin up.
"Old man, your mother is just like this. Old ladies in the country are just like this. Well, if you want to rest, then rest. You must go see someone in the afternoon. Your mother and I haven't seen Jiaxuan for a while. We don't know if he can eat well and wear warm clothes. If not, give him some gifts. We old couple will pay for it. You must let us see the fourth brother!"
Shen Meng didn't say yes or no, and went straight into the house.
