Chapter 494 Secret



Meng Tao said, "Just focus on your studies. We two can represent everyone. I just talked to Grandpa Liu about this. We will all go back together in two years. My grandfather will definitely be very happy."

Then, she brought up her idea of ​​moving Grandma He Lian, Mother Guan Xiuzhi, and Meng Goudan back to Linshui Village and sought everyone's opinion.

Han Shufang and Wang Cuixi raised their hands in agreement.

Han Shufang said, "That's right! Your grandma said many times before she died that she would only give birth to Goudan as her son. When Xiuzhi gets married, she and your grandpa will take Goudan back to their hometown in the south!"

Wang Cuixi's eyes were red: "Yes, I remember this too. Your grandmother was willing to be buried with your grandfather."

Liu Yongsheng coughed and said, "If we really move back to Linshui Village, we will have to change our way of addressing them and call them grandpa and grandma."

You can't call someone grandma and grandpa at the same time, people will find it weird.

Meng Tao nodded: "Of course, I will definitely change my words then."

Liu Yongsheng paused and said, "We need to ask the Guan family again. After all, your grandfather..."

"What do you mean by grandpa?"

Wang Cuixi wiped her eyes and said, "Taotao's grandmother...her grandmother told us that the grave in Guanjia Village was a fake grave. There was only one set of clothes buried in it. Taotao's grandfather didn't die of illness. He went out with others to run a horse gang. In fact, he was a bandit. He was beaten to death outside and his body was not found. The family didn't dare to tell anyone."

Han Shufang: "Yes, otherwise why did the Guan family never mention moving Xiuzhi and her daughter back to Guanjia Village?"

"There is such a thing? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Liu Yongsheng glared at the two women.

Han Shufang said, "This is someone's secret. How can we tell? A few people were doing needlework and chatting, and He Lian only told us quietly and told us not to tell anyone."

Liu Yongsheng: “…” I underestimated these women. They are quite good at hiding secrets.

Xu Yulin said to Meng Tao: "If that's the case, then there shouldn't be any problem. Let's set a time and do it."

Meng Tao: "Don't worry, it will take two years."

Liu Yongsheng nodded: "Yes, this is not a small matter, we need to discuss it and plan it carefully."

Then he said to the four brothers Xu Yulin, Liu Jianye, "Keep your mouth shut, especially Yulin and Jianye. You two have many friends and brothers over there. There's no need to let them know about this."

Xu Yulin and Liu Jianye: “Yes.”

Meng Tao remembered and asked Xu Yulin and Liu Jianye: "Has Brother Zhehan talked to you?"

Xu Yulin: "What about the medicinal materials?"

"right."

"We talked about some of it, and said we'll discuss the rest when you get back."

"Okay, then come back next week."

"good."

Shen Heping went to the airport to see him off. Seeing his lovely wife standing with his precious grandson and his son and daughter-in-law, while he was all alone, he felt sad when he thought that he would have to endure this for at least a week.

He said to his daughter-in-law, "Dad is busy with work, so you can go back and pay respect to the old man and burn some incense on his behalf. Now that spring has arrived, Jinniu and the villagers are busy with farm work and don't have time to accompany you all the time. Don't stay too long and waste their time. Just stay for three or two days and then come back, okay?"

Meng Tao felt amused. Her father-in-law didn't tell his son these things, but had to come to her. He must have other intentions. He was just afraid that if she stayed in her hometown for too long, her mother-in-law and Xiao Yunhai would not come back.

She deliberately said, "I finally get to go back to my parents' home, how can I be back in just a few days? I have to stay for at least two months. It's the busy farming season. I can also help Brother Jinniu with the work. Anyway, my stepmother is looking after Xiao Yunhai."

"Two months is not enough! Your mother and grandson... Taotao, just be obedient and stay for a week!"

Seeing her father-in-law almost jumping up in anxiety, Meng Tao chuckled. Xu Zhen couldn't help laughing too. She hugged little Yunhai and moved close to Shen Heping to comfort him.

Shen Yu patted his naughty wife on the head and said to Shen Heping, "Dad, Taotao was just joking with you. You can't stay that long. I'll take them there, and we must come back together. We'll be back in five days."

"Oh, okay! Then you should be more careful on the road and take good care of them."

After getting the assurance from his son, Shen Heping felt relieved. He hurriedly hugged his wife and grandson and sent them to security check, while whispering some instructions in Xu Zhen's ear. Xu Zhen nodded repeatedly, and when her son, daughter-in-law and people around them were not paying attention, she quickly kissed Shen Heping on the cheek. Shen Heping smiled so much that his face looked like a big red flower blooming.

Little Yunhai gave his uncle a kiss on the cheek, then stretched out a little finger, pointing in an unknown direction, and said, "Wangwang, Wangwang!"

Meng Zhehan understood what his nephew meant immediately. Little Wangcai was also checked in, so he asked him to claim him: "Okay, let's go find Wangwang now!"

After staying in the provincial capital for one night, they set out back to Linshui Village in Mengzhou the next day. Meng Zhehan found a van with spacious seats. Zhang Guoqing also went back with them. Several people took turns driving. Except for eating and going to the bathroom on the way, they drove steadily and at a leisurely pace, and returned to Linshui Village at eight o'clock in the evening.

Meng Jinniu and Bao Dongmei were so happy to see them that they couldn't stop smiling. They had received a telegram to know that they were coming back, and they had already made preparations and arranged their food and accommodation, so even if they arrived home late at night, they didn't have to rush.

The educated youth all ran out to greet Meng Tao, and greeted her warmly. They rushed to hold little Yunhai. With the help of Xu Guoliang and Qian Liang, Qian Xiaoyun hugged the little cute baby first, and was so excited that she almost cried:

"Ahahaha! What did you eat to grow up, little Yunhai? Oh my god, it's so fragrant and soft and so cute! I want to take a bite..."

Bao Dongmei patted her and said, "Don't do that! You can't really bite me. You've made my nephew cry. Give it to me now!"

"No no, give it to me! Come to me first and hug me!"

"You can't hold a baby, but I can. I'll do it, I'll do it!"

Meng Tao was speechless and amused when she saw Qian Liang, Sun Yutang and Xu Guoliang, three idiots, pulling each other's hair.

It won't be long before they are not so idle. This winter, Guo Jia will resume the college entrance examination. They are all prepared people. They will take the college entrance examination, and then leave the countryside and return to the city to attend university, to realize their dreams and show their ambitions.

Captain Bao, his wife Aunt Yu, and the surrounding neighbors also rushed over. The women wanted to help prepare the food, but Bao Dongmei said that everything was ready and there was not much work to do. She asked everyone to go and talk to her "grandmother-in-law" and only asked Qian Xiaoyun and Jiang Limei to help in the kitchen. The three of them washed, cut, and steamed and fried a few hot dishes.

Meng Tao told them that it was late at night, so there was no need to make it too complicated, just keep it simple.

A group of aunts and grandmas surrounded Xu Zhen in the main room. Xu Zhen couldn't speak, so she communicated with everyone through gestures. She was beautiful, gentle, elegant, and had a friendly smile. She gave candies to everyone and didn't have the slightest sense of superiority that city people had.

The aunties and grandmas seemed to really like him, and couldn't help but whispering about it, lamenting that such a good girl had to be given a defect by God, becoming mute. Otherwise, a young and beautiful girl in her twenties would definitely not be able to marry Grandpa Xiao Yunhai, an old man in his fifties. Alas!

Meng Tao was secretly happy when she heard this and felt sympathy for the old man father-in-law for two seconds.

Zhang Guoqing talked for a few words with Captain Bao and Jin Niu, and then said something to Meng Zhehan and Shen Yu, then ran to his father-in-law's house in a hurry. He wanted to go back to see his wife and son, but he remembered to pick up a big bag of gifts that Meng Tao had specially brought for Zhou Cuiling and the baby.

After Zhou Cuiling gave birth, she basically lived in her parents' home. After Zhang Guoqing knew about his mother's tricks, he firmly stood on his wife's side.

Bao Dongmei and the others quickly prepared the meal, and Captain Bao told the villagers to go back and rest first, as it was too late, and to come back and play tomorrow.

The educated youth also said goodbye and went back to the new yard to rest. Captain Bao and his wife and Jinniu and his wife accompanied Meng Zhehan, Xu Zhen, Shen Yu and Mengtao for dinner. Jinniu even specially got a new dog bowl for Xiao Wangcai.

Seeing Xiao Yunhai sitting by himself, eating rice one spoonful at a time with gusto and without spilling any rice grains, Captain Bao and Aunt Yu were amazed. The Taurus couple even had their eyes on Xiao Yunhai and loved him to death.

After dinner, Captain Bao took Aunt Yu back and told Meng Tao and the others to wash up and have a good rest. They had to get up early tomorrow, as there would surely be a lot of people coming to visit them and their son, and it would be a lively scene again.

Bao Dongmei boiled some water and told Jinniu to quickly bring out a new large wooden tub for Xiao Yunhai to bathe. Jinniu hugged Xiao Yunhai happily and was reluctant to let go. He whispered to Meng Tao, "Dongmei is pregnant too. She's been pregnant for four months."

Meng Tao glared at him: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? You've made her run around like this, aren't you afraid she'll get tired?"

Taurus: "Dongmei is in good health. I asked her to take the nutritional supplements you sent back and not to work, but she said she knows her own body and insisted on working! She is busy at home and outside, and I can't stop her. My mother-in-law also said that Dongmei is like when she was young, strong and healthy, so let her do some work so that she can have children in the future."

Meng Tao: “…”

That's indeed the case. Everyone has different physical constitutions and each has their own reasons. When she was pregnant with Xiao Yunhai, she was full of energy and had no problems at all.

But when he saw Bao Dongmei running into the house and coming out carrying a large wooden basin, he couldn't help but feel his heart trembling. He hurried over to take it, held her hand and asked a few questions, warning her not to do this in the future. No matter how healthy she was, she had to be careful, not lift heavy objects or do heavy work, walk steadily and slowly, and think about the baby in her belly and not be anxious about anything.

Bao Dongmei smiled, nodded, and then glared at Jinniu shyly, blaming him for taking the lead. She was originally going to tell Sister Taohua herself.

Meng Tao asked again and found out that Jinniu had listened to Zhou Cuiling's advice and took Dongmei to the county hospital for a check-up. Everything was normal and the doctor also praised Dongmei for her excellent health.

Meng Tao thought about looking back at the records of her pregnancy and getting a set of food and daily necessities for Dongmei.

After washing up, everyone went to rest. Xu Zhen insisted on sleeping with her daughter-in-law and grandson. Shen Yu had no choice but to sleep in the same room with Meng Zhehan.
