Chapter 278, There's Wine to Drink
She and her grandmother would only cook when there were guests at home. On weekdays, everyone ate in Grandpa Mu's yard.
The large courtyards of the three houses are all connected, of course, if there are no gates separating them.
Even though they are separated, the three families will not close the gate all day long, making it convenient for everyone to come in and out.
There were no valuables in the house, so leaving the door open was not a big deal for Mei Xue.
But what bothered her was that He Anze was still thinking about the gold. Forget it, she would take some out when he came back next time.
Because someone lived next door to the house, the hole under the bed was never opened again.
As for the money, she still had some in her hands, but He Anze said that the gold was not very pure and it would be better to exchange it for money.
She has no objection.
But asking her to deposit the money in the bank, haha, that's impossible. Wouldn't it be better to put it in space?
It was only after coming here that Mei Xue began to pay attention to money. In the past, she paid more attention to food.
Even now, she is still very stingy, and there is little food in the house that can be taken out.
But if he wanted to exchange the gold bars for money, then just do it, it doesn't matter to her anyway.
On the day of An Liang's college entrance examination, he saw his mother at the school gate. Even though he said that he didn't need her to accompany him, he still felt a little bit of longing in his heart.
"Mom, why are you here?" It's so early, I'm afraid my mother has walked out before dawn.
"I'm here to accompany you. This is the most important exam in your life. I'm worried about you being alone. It's getting late. You should go in quickly. After the exam, I'll take you to Boss Zhao's restaurant for dinner."
Yesterday, Third Aunt asked her to go find Boss Zhao today and ask him to make some chicken soup for An Liang to nourish his brain.
"Okay, I'll listen to mom." An Liang smiled broadly, "We'll go eat later."
After the mother and son talked for a few words, An Liang walked into the school gate.
There are many people taking the college entrance examination this year, but he doesn't care. He is very confident that he can get into university and will definitely go to Kyoto University, which is his dream.
The exam lasted two days. An Liang was exhausted after finishing it. "Mom, let's go home." He had to sleep for three days and three nights.
Aunt Meilian felt very distressed as she watched her son getting thinner day by day.
During the two days of the exam, Lixia came over twice, but she was in a hurry each time. It’s not her fault, as she had a lot of things to do.
An Liang also understood and never blamed his sister.
"Go, go home. Uncle Zhengnan has been waiting for you for a long time. Let's go to the town entrance quickly." This afternoon, He Zhengnan was invited out by He Zhengcai to pick up An Liang and his son and take them back to the village.
"good."
There was a quilt in the carriage, and An Liang fell asleep as soon as he got on.
He Zhengnan and Aunt Meilian were very quiet along the way, for fear of disturbing An Liang's rest.
The college entrance examination is not an easy thing. It requires a lot of brain work, so you need to rest more.
It took more than an hour for the carriage to enter the village. When it reached the flat land by the stream, He Zhengnan stopped the carriage and said, "Hurry up and wake up An Liang. It's not comfortable to sleep in the carriage."
Aunt Meilian knew that it was uncomfortable to sleep in a carriage: "An Liang, An Liang is home, get up quickly, if you want to sleep, go home and sleep."
After pushing An Liang a few times, he finally woke her up. "Mom, are we going back to the village?" An Liang was a little confused as he looked at the person walking towards him from a distance.
"I'm back, come on. If you're still tired, go back to the room and sleep. It's not comfortable to sleep in the car."
"Yeah." He stood up and put away the quilt, "Thank you, Uncle Zhengnan."
"You're welcome. Go home quickly." He Zhengnan waved his hand and told him to go back quickly.
Aunt Meilian smiled and patted An Liang on the back, "Go up quickly, I'll get this."
An Liang didn't bother to be polite with his mother, "Okay, Mom, I'll go back first then." He was really tired, not physically but mentally.
I was so nervous the whole time, and after I relaxed after the exam, I felt like I was exhausted.
"Zhengnan, bring Lanhua and the others to our house for dinner tomorrow. I'm sorry to bother you today." After the families have a good relationship, it would be too polite to pay for the carriage.
Besides, He Zhengnan's family raised a lot of ducks because of Xiaoxue, and now their family conditions are among the best in the village.
I don't even think much of this little money.
"Okay, let's get together after An Cheng comes back." He Zhengnan agreed with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you should go back soon too and make some good food for An Liang to replenish his body."
"Why."
Mei Xue and Grandma He were picking fruits on the mountain. An Wei and his friends had picked a lot of fruits from the trees, but there were still some fruits from high up that had not been picked.
Mei Xue saw those tempting fruits and couldn't help but take her grandmother and children up the mountain to play.
Anyway, with Xiaobai here, there is no need to worry about any blind animals running over and scaring grandma and Xiaopeng and the others.
If they dare to come, she will dare to eat them. You know, the animals here are very delicious.
When the old men learned that they were going to pick fruit, they all came running over. Old Man Hua was still the same as before, trying to find out why the food here was so delicious.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get to the water because it was very turbid and he didn't dare to drink from those pits.
"Mom, this is delicious, this is delicious." Mei Xue had just picked some loquats from the tree, and Xiao Peng peeled the skin and put them into his mouth.
"If it tastes good, eat more, but be careful not to eat the seeds inside." Mei Xue smiled and handed the basket in her hand to him.
"Mom, I want to eat this." Little Cheng is a bit naughty and has been looking around for his favorite food.
Mei Xue looked in the direction of his hand and said, "Haha, OK." It turned out to be loquat. She didn't expect that this thing would grow everywhere in the mountain behind.
"This thing smells so good when used to make wine, but it's a pity your mother doesn't make wine now." Old Master Shi stood next to Xiao Cheng and said with emotion.
Mei Xue glanced at him and said, "Forget it. Since these old men gave her so much money, she would just brew some for them without adding space water."
"Uncle Shi, do you want to drink?" Mei Xue looked at him with a smile on her face. "It's not a problem if you want to drink. You can pick the loquats here by yourselves. I will make as much wine as you pick."
When the old man heard it, he was happy, "You said that?" Mr. Shi was really excited.
"Not lying?"
"I won't lie to you. As long as you go and pick them, I will make as much as you pick." Mei Xue said righteously, "Don't worry, I won't lie to you."
Come to think of it, Xiaoxue has never lied to them, it's just the eldest sister who always deceives their feelings.
"Haha, OK, OK, OK." After saying that, Mr. Shi turned around and shouted to the people not far away: "Come here quickly, if you want to drink, come over quickly."
After a while, four old men came running over. Yes, they ran.
"Where's the wine?"
"Where's the wine?"
"Old Shi, are you hiding some private liquor?"
Everyone was staring at him. The wine was really tempting.
"What are you thinking? But if you want to drink, you have to do it yourself. Xiaoxue said..."
