Qi Mengmeng reminded Zhang Meiling to put away all her things, and if anything happened, she would come back in a few days.
Zhang Meiling shook her head and said that they had food and drink here. Now that the weather was cold, they would go up the mountain to herd cattle. When it snowed, they would stay in the cowshed and not go out. There was no danger.
Qi Mengmeng thought for a moment, then took out some cold and fever-reducing medicine from her pocket (space) and gave it to Zhang Meiling.
Zhang Meiling was sending Qi Mengmeng out and almost bumped into a man carrying a backpack.
Qi Mengmeng took two steps back and touched the big headscarf on her head. It was wrapped very well, so the other party should not be able to see anything except for her eyes and clothes.
"Xiao Hao, this is my niece. She came to see us." Zhang Meiling's voice was nervous.
Little Haolian went in with the backpack on his back without even raising his head.
Zhang Meiling quickly waved at Qi Mengmeng, meaning to tell her to leave quickly.
Qi Mengmeng lowered her head and walked quickly towards the village entrance.
Zhang Meiling entered the room and said nervously, "Xiao Hao, my niece just came to deliver some things."
"Yeah." Xiao Hao lowered his head, took the backpack off his back, and ignored the things on the kang that had not been put away yet.
Zhang Meiling hurried to clean up the remaining things on the bed. She didn't expect Xiao Hao to come back so soon.
"Xiao Hao, have you seen your Uncle Jiang?" Zhang Meiling asked tentatively.
"No." Xiao Hao uttered one word.
Zhang Meiling was a little nervous. Usually, it was Grandpa Jiang who talked to Xiao Hao, and she seldom communicated with Xiao Hao.
If Xiao Hao tells others about Qi Mengmeng, she will be guilty of a serious crime.
"Aunt, I won't tell anyone." Xiao Hao suddenly said when he saw Zhang Meiling looked very nervous.
"These were sent by my family. Let's eat them together." Xiao Hao suddenly opened the lid of the backpack and let Zhang Meiling see what was inside.
There are several cloth bags in the backpack.
Zhang Meiling looked at Xiao Hao carefully and thought that he would not lie, so she took out the buns and handed them to Xiao Hao.
"My niece sent these to me. Have two."
Xiao Hao took the bun and started eating it silently.
Zhang Meiling always felt that Xiao Hao was a little strange today, and thought about waiting for Mr. Jiang to come back before discussing it.
Xiao Hao was thinking about the girl who brought him food. She was not his student, but he had helped her when she was bullied before. He didn't expect that she would still remember to bring him food after going to the countryside.
Thinking about the girl saying that she came here specifically to work in the countryside, Xiao Hao didn't know what to feel. Now someone was thinking about him.
But Xiao Hao had already made it clear to her that he had helped her, so she sent him food, and now they were even.
Mr. Jiang searched the mountain for a while but couldn't find Xiao Hao. When he came back, he saw Xiao Hao eating buns. Just as he was about to speak, Zhang Meiling pulled him over.
Zhang Meiling repeated what Xiao Hao had just said, and then asked worriedly, "Will Xiao Hao tell others about my niece?"
She was afraid that Xiao Hao would hear it, so she didn't even dare to say Qi Mengmeng's name.
"No." Mr. Jiang nodded confidently, "I believe in Xiao Hao."
Xiao Hao, who was watching quietly outside the door, heard this and turned back to look at the two of them. His lips trembled for a moment and he spoke slowly, "I won't tell anyone."
Zhang Meiling then breathed a sigh of relief and started to prepare lunch.
Qi Mengmeng was riding her bike very fast on the road because she noticed that snow was falling from the sky. She was worried about snowing, so she rode her bike quickly.
She had already put the big bag on the back seat of the bicycle into space, and only took it out and tied it up again when she was almost at the family compound.
The things in the back seat of the car were too heavy. Although she only carried them a short distance, when she entered the staff quarters, she still felt very tired and her head was steaming.
Fortunately, most people in the family compound were eating at home at this time, otherwise someone would definitely come over to ask her what was tied to the back seat.
Qi Mengmeng went home, put her bicycle against the wall, put the things on the back seat into the space, and put the things away after returning to the house. She first poured herself a cup of hot water and hugged it to warm herself.
Qi Mengmeng didn't feel much warmer until she finished drinking the water in the cup.
She missed the windshield of her electric car, but even if she had it, she couldn't take it out. Alas, it was another day of missing modern life.
As the weather turned cold, she cooked herself a bowl of wontons and felt much warmer.
In the afternoon, someone brought a cart of coal and dumped it in the yard, saying that it was Gu Guizhi's allowance. Qi Mengmeng counted the days and found that Gu Guizhi had been gone for five or six days. No one knew when he would come back.
Qi Mengmeng had nothing to do in the afternoon, so she just started making dumplings. Since the weather was cold now, the dumplings would probably freeze if she put them outside.
She has seen the video and knows that as long as you dip it in water and put it outside, it will definitely freeze.
She felt the temperature outside and it was definitely below zero, so she decided to try the frozen dumplings.
In such weather, few people come out to visit. Qi Mengmeng uses a meat grinder to grind the pork belly into minced meat, and makes dumplings with cabbage and pork, radish and pork, zucchini and egg, and tomato and egg.
Qi Mengmeng has a bad habit. Whenever she does something, she wants to finish it all at once.
She made nearly four hundred dumplings with four kinds of fillings, from after lunch until before dinner.
When Qi Zhijun came to see Qi Mengmeng, he was stunned for a moment when he saw the dumplings placed in the yard.
"Meng Meng, what's up with those dumplings in the yard?"
After Qi Mengmeng finished making dumplings, there was some dough left. She fried it with oil and prepared to make pulled noodles the next morning.
After hearing what Qi Zhijun said, she replied naturally: "I freeze all the dumplings I make. I can cook them whenever I want to eat them. It's much easier."
Qi Zhijun looked back at the yard again. Which good person would make hundreds of dumplings at one time? Not to mention whether it would be tiring or not, the amount of white flour used would be quite a lot.
But the expression on Qi Mengmeng's face was so natural that Qi Zhijun swallowed back what he wanted to say.
Forget it, Qi Mengmeng is not short of money, so she can live the way she wants.
Qi Mengmeng had been making dumplings for the whole afternoon, and her arms were a little sore. She poured herself a glass of water and said, "Dad, are you eating here tonight? I'll cook dumplings for you?"
Qi Zhijun shook his head: "I came to call you over for dinner. I'm making dumplings at home."
Qi Mengmeng had been making dumplings all afternoon and was tired. When she heard that she didn't have to cook, she didn't refuse.
She went back to the house and took out some of the things she bought today and put them in the basket.
"Dad, these are some chestnuts and mushrooms I exchanged in the village. I also bought a chicken. You can take it back and stew it to nourish your body."
Qi Zhijun didn't want it, so Qi Mengmeng carried the basket and followed him.
