Several people looked at Qi Mengmeng, and Qi Huilan couldn't help asking: "Mengmeng, where did you buy this cake?"
"Shh!" Qi Mengmeng put her index finger between her lips. "This is a secret, right, Fourth Uncle?"
Meng Lao Si nodded: "Yes, it's a secret, you can't ask."
Everyone thought that it was Meng Laosi who told Qi Mengmeng the address, and no one asked any more questions.
"Huilan, let's share the cake." Meng Laosi took a deep breath of the sweetness of the cake. "It's hard for us to take such a big cake on the train. Let's share it."
Qi Mengmeng pointed at the bag on Liu Dajiang's body and said, "Fourth uncle, I also bought you some small cakes and bread, you can save them for your return trip."
"Okay, let's share." Meng Lao Si nodded and looked at Qi Zhijun: "Third brother, there are plates in there, take them out for everyone."
Qi Huilan glanced at Qi Zhijun secretly and whispered, "I'll get it."
"No need." Qi Zhijun said as he took out all the bowls and plates, six in total.
Qi Mengmeng cut the cake with a small knife, and scooped out a piece for each person with a spoon, giving the biggest piece to Meng Laosi.
There aren't that many spoons and chopsticks at Meng Laosi's house, so everyone eats directly from plates or bowls.
When she took the first bite of the cake, Qi Mengmeng nodded, her cooking skills were still there.
The others quickened their pace, as they had never eaten such a sweet and fragrant cake.
Qi Huilan finished the cake in the bowl and looked hesitantly at the remaining cream in the bowl. She put a spoon into the bowl, looked up, and quickly lowered her head. It was Qi Zhijun.
Qi Zhijun had no interest in sweets, so he ate quickly and put down the plate.
Liu Dajiang only ate half of the cake in her hand, and she wanted to leave the rest for Qi Huilan.
Qi Huilan shook her head: "Eat it yourself."
Qi Mengmeng ate cake while looking at the expressions of several people. She felt that Qi Huilan didn't eat Liu Dajiang's cake because she might be disgusted with him because he had already eaten it.
If you observe carefully, you will find that Qi Huilan has a very obvious temperament as a spoiled daughter.
Meng Laosi pointed at the cake in the ceramic bowl and said, "There is more cake here. Whoever has finished eating can get more. These are not easy to bring on the train."
Qi Mengmeng just wanted to try whether the cooking skills had deteriorated. After trying it and finding no problem, she didn't want to eat it anymore.
Qi Zhijun and Liu Dajiang both waved their hands, saying that they didn't like sweets.
Meng Laosi looked at Qi Mengmeng and said, "Give your mother another piece."
Qi Huilan licked her lips and shook her head: "I don't want to eat anymore."
Qi Mengmeng quickly served her a piece: "Eat it."
Meng Laosi also extended his plate and said, "Give me one piece too."
Qi Mengmeng quickly put the remaining cake on a plate for Meng Laosi.
The ceramic bowl she used was not big, only slightly larger than an ordinary six-inch cake. Plus, she used good materials to make cakes, so it was okay to eat two more pieces.
After several people finished eating the cake, Meng Laosi asked Liu Dajiang for a small bread and ate it with the remaining cream in the ceramic bowl.
Qi Mengmeng: ...
At this time, a child poked his head out of the door: "It smells good, Grandpa Meng, what are you eating?"
Qi Mengmeng quickly put the lid on the ceramic basin.
Meng Lao Si put away the expression on his face and said, "I didn't eat anything."
The child took a deep breath and said, "I smell something."
"You asked the wrong question." Meng Laosi said seriously.
After he finished speaking, he ignored the kids outside and looked at Qi Zhijun: "Third brother, pack up and let's go."
Qi Zhijun picked up the things that had been put away, and Meng Laosi winked at Qi Mengmeng.
Qi Mengmeng nodded: "You go first, I'll lock the door."
After everyone left, Qi Mengmeng looked around the house and put everything except the large furniture into the space.
These small items were not valuable, but they belonged to Meng Laosi. She was worried that after they left, someone would come in and steal things.
She took out the bag of gold from the space, locked the door, and followed everyone.
Meng Laosi glanced at the bag in Qi Mengmeng's hand, breathed a sigh of relief, and followed everyone into the jeep.
The jeep took everyone all the way to the station, and Qi Zhijun and the guards went into the station to buy tickets for everyone.
"Here are your tickets for 5pm. My ticket is for 7pm. You guys go back home first. I'll take a few days off and then go visit Lao Si."
Qi Zhijun handed the sleeper ticket to Liu Dajiang: "Dajiang, I'm entrusting my younger brother and sister to you."
Liu Dajiang saluted Qi Zhijun.
Qi Zhijun returned the salute.
"Huilan." Qi Zhijun looked at Qi Huilan.
Qi Huilan lowered her head and dared not look up.
"Huilan, you have already married Dajiang. Live a good life in the future. Mengmeng is under my care, so don't worry." Qi Zhijun said.
"Yes, I know." Qi Huilan didn't look up.
Qi Zhijun took out some money from his pocket and handed it to Qi Huilan without counting it: "Old Four is staying at your house. If you want to eat or drink anything you want and can't buy it, just call me and I'll find a way."
"Um."
Qi Huilan was like a bullied wife, making Qi Zhijun swallow the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Qi Mengmeng interrupted, "Mom, I sent you a package. I think it will be here by the time you get back. Remember to pick it up."
Qi Huilan then looked up and said, "What are you sending me, kid? We have everything at home."
"It's just some food, not worth much." Qi Mengmeng waved her hand.
Most of them are things in the space and are really not valuable.
Qi Huilan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it was not worth any money, while Qi Zhijun glanced at Qi Mengmeng.
"Mengmeng, tell Guizhi that we came here in a hurry this time. We will go to the army to see you next time we have a chance." Qi Huilan said. They only went to see Gu Guizhi yesterday and didn't have time to see him today.
"It's okay. Guizhi knows that Fourth Uncle is sick and he won't be angry." Qi Mengmeng believed that Gu Guizhi could understand.
Given Meng Laosi's current condition, although he can speak without any problems, he can only sit and looks like he has no strength at all. How can he ask Qi Huilan to go to the hospital to take care of Guizhi?
Qi Mengmeng took the opportunity to tell everyone about Lei Lei. She didn't mention Mr. Feng's identity, but only said that she looked like Lei Lei's mother and liked Lei Lei, so she adopted Lei Lei as her godson.
Qi Huilan nodded: "I came here in a hurry this time. I will prepare some gifts for you when I get back. You can give them to Leilei then."
Her five brothers were all adopted sons of the Qi family, so she was very accepting of this matter.
Qi Mengmeng and Qi Huilan were chatting in private while Liu Dajiang went to the state-owned restaurant next door to buy some food.
When the train arrived, Qi Zhijun helped Qi Huilan and others get on the train.
Only after watching the train start to move did Qi Zhijun glare at Qi Mengmeng.
Qi Mengmeng: ...What do you mean? Your biological mother is gone, and you want to show your true colors?
Qi Zhijun lowered his voice and asked, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
