Chapter 57: I will repay you even if I risk my
life "It's delicious, little sister, what do you think? This chicken soup has pepper, hehe, there is not much of this stuff, luckily I know an old tree, this soup is really fresh, it's different with meat."
"Sister, your cooking is really delicious, why haven't I seen you cook before!" Shen Xiaobin felt that he had missed out on eating so many meals cooked by Shen Meng before.
Shen Meng ate less at night, but he was happy to see that the meals he cooked were so popular.
"I didn't want to cook before, but my parents didn't want to. Hey, mom, can dad eat alone there?"
Wang Guizhi took a bite of the crispy pancake, "Yes, he's so old, how can I still feed him? You eat yours, there's hot water in the pot, take Mingyang and the other kids to wash up in the evening, and let your brother take you back tomorrow morning."
"Hey!"
The food was so delicious that almost no one said anything. Even Mingyang and the other kids were used to eating the food cooked by Shen Meng, but for some reason, the meal tonight was particularly delicious.
Knowing that the family was going to rebuild the house and make furniture, Lu Qinlan and Su Xiaomei were also happy. After all, the house would be more spacious, and the children wouldn't have to squeeze on the same kang with them all the time.
As the uncle, Shen Xiaobin took the initiative to help his nephews bathe. Lu Qinlan also filled a wooden basin with water for Mingfang to bathe. Shen Meng's work was taken away, so she moved a stool and talked with the people in the yard of the Shen family.
The breeze blew, but it could not dispel the laughter. In the evening, knowing that Shen Meng was back, several young sisters who were not married yet came to play with her. Seeing that she talked and dressed better than before marriage, they were sincerely happy for her.
Wang Guizhi went back to the room and took out the brown sugar that was packed in the kang cabinet. The second child was pregnant, and drinking some brown sugar water from time to time could also replenish her health, but we couldn't favor one over the other. The eldest child had to give some too, otherwise there would be resentment.
She didn't plan to take out the rest of the things. After all, these were all given to her and the old man by her daughter-in-law. If she gave the things given by her daughter-in-law to her daughter-in-law, she would be sad. Unfortunately, some people just don't have this state of mind.
"There are so many good things. We can't finish them. You just took some brown sugar to share. Old woman, when did you become so stingy?"
"Go to sleep. These are Xiao Meng's gifts to us. Our grandchildren have given them candies. What else do they want to eat? We don't know how much it will cost to renovate the house. Xiao Meng said she would ask if she could buy black tiles. I originally thought thatched roofs would be fine, but then I thought about it and decided to listen to Xiao Meng. Building a house is a big deal. We will thank our son-in-law and Xiao Meng later. After the house is built, we will prepare furniture and other things. We have already got such a great thing. What else do you want? Go out and look around. Where in these villages can you find such a good mother-in-law like me?"
Shen Fugui stopped talking. He actually knew that it would be inappropriate to give his daughter-in-law's things to his daughter-in-law, but he felt sorry for his two daughters-in-law and his grandchildren.
He looked up at Wang Guizhi, who was hunched over packing things, and his heart suddenly tightened.
"Guizhi, why do I feel like you have more white hair?"
Wang Guizhi paused while locking the cabinet and turned to glance at him.
"I'm so old, it's normal to have white hair. I'll make you a bowl of milk powder later. Oh no, two bowls. I have to drink one bowl too. This is my daughter's gift to me. I've suffered for so many years, and now someone cares about me. I tell you, you can sleep with those boys at night. I'll go to the eldest son's room and sleep with my daughter."
"Okay, okay, go ahead. You two mother and daughter can talk. By the way, remind Xiao Meng to communicate more with your son-in-law. The relationship between husband and wife must not fade. Ask him if he will go home this year. If not, let Xiao Meng find someone to see if he can go to the army to visit his relatives."
For several years, the son-in-law has never come back, and his daughter has never mentioned visiting relatives. After such a long time, won't the relationship between husband and wife be in tatters?
"Got it. I'll go back and ask quietly."
Shen Meng was in the room watching the kids playing. They had no intention of sleeping. She just thought it was funny. Just wait, you'll cry when you go back to school.
"Mom, why are you laughing so intrusively? What's wrong with you?" Lu Mingliang crawled over from the other end of the kang and got into Shen Meng's arms. He had eaten a lot of good food during this period of time and could drink a glass of fragrant milk every night. He grew very fast.
"Ouch, little brat, be careful. The iron head almost hit mom's chin."
"Hehehe..." Lu Mingliang felt sweet in his heart. Xiao Kai, that little brat, always relied on his young age to get into his mother's arms from time to time. What about now? He came first, and the others could only watch.
Lu Mingyang looked at his second brother's smirk and felt it was very dazzling.
"Your uncle just gave you a bath and you are sweating all over again. Be quiet for a while and go to bed early. Next time when grandma's house is built, mom will bring you to play again, okay?"
"Okay, mom, uncle, catch some earthworms for me. I've done surgery on the earthworms, one by one." Lu Mingkai crawled to Shen Meng and squeezed into her arms, trying to squeeze his second brother out.
Shen Meng: "......."
It sounded a little disgusting!!!
"Oh my, you two are being naughty. You're going to make your mother fall down. Go to sleep quickly. Mingyang, Mingyang, Mingfang, quickly cover yourself with the quilt and go to sleep. You have to get up early tomorrow. Wait, your grandma will wake you up before dawn."
After saying this, Lu Mingyang immediately showed his authority as the eldest brother and forced his younger brothers and sisters to lie down.
Wang Guizhi, holding her own pillow, hesitated whether to go in. Mo De listened to the voices of the two daughters-in-law, and took two steps forward and stood at the door of the second room.
"Sister-in-law, our sister-in-law is really different this time she comes back. She is so nice to our parents that you can see with your own eyes. She is also polite to us and doesn't treat us as outsiders."
"That's right. Several children are holding candies given by their sister-in-law in their hands, and they keep saying how nice our sister-in-law is. Hey, this is how our sister-in-law should live now. Have you seen what Mingyang's children are wearing? The fabric is really good. I touched it and it was a silky dress, very soft."
Lu Qinlan patted her son on the shoulder as she spoke. She was full of envy in her heart. If she had money, she would definitely buy the best for her children.
"Of course I feel sorry for my own children, but Mingyang's children are also sensible. Look at the clothes they brought for us. They are all good clothes. Although there are some patches, they are still better than our own. I heard from Xiao Kai that my sister-in-law brought some clothes that they hadn't worn. I am very grateful in my heart. I want to see if I can repay my sister-in-law in some way." Su Xiaomei was grateful in her heart and said so. She had been very inferior because of her lameness since she was a child. She didn't expect anyone to be really good to her, but as long as someone was truly good to her children, she would repay them at all costs.
