Chapter 249 I feel like crying
"That's right." Zhuang Qingsui blinked, "It would be bad if Brother Wencheng was wronged again because of us."
"That's the case. So, let's think of other ways to deal with this herbal bag." Zhuang Qingning reached out and rubbed Zhuang Qingsui's little head with very gentle movements.
"Yeah!" Zhuang Qingsui nodded excitedly.
The two sisters walked and talked, and soon arrived at Zhuang Ji Cloth Shop.
This is a shop that is not big but not small either. There is a water sign more than one meter tall at the door, which looks quite impressive. People are coming and going at the door, and there are constant sounds of chatting and laughter in the shop. It is obvious that the business is good.
Before Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui came in, Mrs. Meng happened to be seeing off the guests. When she saw the two sisters, her eyes widened and her face was full of joy. "Ms. Ning, Ms. Sui, you are here."
"Boss, boss, come here quickly, Ning and Sui are here."
When Zhuang Yutian heard this, he asked the shop assistant to help greet the customers first, and walked to the door in two steps: "It's really Miss Ning and Miss Sui, come in quickly, and rest your feet in the backyard."
As he spoke, he led Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui to the backyard, moved some stools for the two of them to sit down, and hurriedly asked Meng to pour tea and bring some snacks.
"Watermelon, watermelon, cut the watermelon quickly." Zhuang Yutian told Meng, and then smiled at Zhuang Qingning and her sister, "This is the first harvest of watermelon. Although the skin is a bit thick, it is very sweet. You can try it."
"Ning girl, are you here for business or just to hang out? If you have business, have lunch here and then go back to work. Let your aunt accompany you. I don't know if she can help you with your business, but your aunt is familiar with the roads and can help you save some trouble by finding people and directions."
"If you want to stroll around, after lunch, let your aunt accompany you to walk around. There are really a few lively places in this county town. Even people from the prefecture city will go there when they come here. If Ning girl comes to the county town to play, then go there. It won't be a wasted trip."
It was always the case that it was a rare opportunity for Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui to come to the county town, so he had to do his best to fulfill his duties as a good host.
"Uncle Yutian, you don't have to rush." Zhuang Qingning waved his hand hurriedly, "Qingsui and I have already walked around a bit, and we thought we would go back later."
"I originally thought that Uncle Yutian and Aunt Meng were busy and didn't want to disturb them, but because of this, I came here..."
As Zhuang Qingning spoke, he pulled out a pair of shoes from the small bag he was carrying and handed them to Zhuang Yutian: "One pair for you and one for Uncle Yucheng."
Seeing Zhuang Yutian was a little dazed, Zhuang Qingning smiled and said, "Uncle Wen made these specially for you. When she heard that I was coming to the county town, she asked me to bring them here and asked Uncle Yutian to remember to give a pair to Uncle Yucheng later."
The shoes that Wen made for him and Zhuang Yucheng?
Zhuang Yutian was even more stunned this time. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He wiped his hands on his clothes again and again, and then he dared to reach out to take the shoes: "For me and Yucheng?"
"Yeah." Zhuang Qingning nodded vigorously and grinned, "I've seen Aunt Wen sewing shoe soles several times before. I think she has been doing it for quite some time. Aunt Wen also said that she didn't know whether the size of the shoes was right or not..."
"It's suitable, I guarantee it will be suitable!"
It has to be appropriate even if it’s not suitable! Zhuang Yutian nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
He couldn't even remember how long it had been since Mrs. Wen had made any clothes or shoes for him and Zhuang Yutian. To be exact, he hadn't even gotten a good look from her for all these years. Recently, with Zhuang Qingning's help, Mrs. Wen had rarely given the two brothers a good look and could often say a few words of concern and praise. In Zhuang Yutian's opinion, this was already the peak and Mrs. Wen would never do anything better for them.
Unexpectedly, this time, I made shoes for two brothers.
This seemed to be the treatment he had only enjoyed when he was a child.
I never thought that after such a long time, at such an old age, I would be able to enjoy it again.
Zhuang Yutian was so excited that he almost cried. He rubbed the shoes in his hand over and over again, and was reluctant to put them down.
I even had the idea of keeping Zhuang Yucheng's shoes and wearing them myself.
Although Zhuang Yucheng's feet seemed smaller than his...
But it doesn't matter. If the shoes are tighter, they will become bigger if they are stretched out. And if the shoes are smaller, it can also remind him to run more and not sit idle, because he can't make money if he is idle.
"Thank you so much, Miss Ning, for coming all the way here." Zhuang Yutian thanked her repeatedly.
"It's not intentional, I just happened to do it along the way." Zhuang Qingning explained.
"Whether you came here on purpose or just for the sake of passing by, you have to stay home for lunch." Mrs. Meng brought over the sliced watermelon and handed the two best pieces to Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Qingsui respectively, "Try my cooking at lunch..."
"Huh?" Meng tilted her head.
"What's wrong, aunt?" Zhuang Qingning had just taken a bite of watermelon when he saw Meng like this. He immediately stood up and looked around.
"It's okay, it's okay." Mrs. Meng hurriedly asked Zhuang Qingning to sit down, smiled awkwardly, and explained, "Speaking of which, Miss Ning laughed at me. Originally, because there were several trees planted in the backyard, the weather has been hot these few days, and there are too many mosquitoes. If you dare to sit in the backyard for a while on weekdays, you will get bitten. This is the most mosquito-attracting place for me. I am most afraid of this summer. I can't stay here for a moment."
"But since I came in just now, I haven't seen any mosquitoes, nor have I been bitten by any mosquitoes. There seems to be a smell of medicine, which I find a bit strange. Is Auntie making a fuss out of nothing?"
"It's not that you're making a fuss, auntie. There's a reason for this." Zhuang Qingning took off the small bag on his back, spread it on the table in front of him, and showed the things inside to Meng. "Here, auntie, look, there are no mosquitoes here. This is the reason."
"This is……"
Meng picked up a herbal bag, looked at it carefully, and then put it under her nose and sniffed it again and again. "Is this a herbal bag for repelling mosquitoes? It smells like mugwort and calamus, and..."
Meng sniffed it carefully again and laughed, "There is a faint fragrance left, but I can't tell what it is, but it smells really good."
"This is the herbal mosquito repellent bag I prepared. I've tried it at home and it's very effective in repelling mosquitoes." Zhuang Qingning briefly told Mrs. Meng the purpose of coming to the county town with Zhuang Qingsui and the incident of Zhuang Wencheng being scolded by Doctor Ge.
