On Sunday, Qi Mengmeng returned to the family compound early. She planned to go there at around ten o'clock, so as to give both parties some time to discuss the matter.
She had just cleaned the house when Ye Tao came. Qi Mengmeng had a smile on her face and poured Ye Tao a cup of brown sugar water.
"Sister Taozi, drink some water."
Ye Tao took a sip of water, looked at Qi Mengmeng and nodded with a smile: "Looking at your face, I know the food factory is a good place. You've been working for so long, and your face is still so good?"
Qi Mengmeng couldn't help but touch her face. She went to work every day and didn't feel anything. She was more inclined to believe that her youth and good skin had nothing to do with working in a food factory.
She thought so and said so. Ye Tao was drinking water and almost burst out laughing.
She pointed her index finger at Qi Mengmeng and said, "You're the only one who would say that."
Qi Mengmeng had already jumped aside and said, "Sister Taozi, you almost sprayed me."
Today's clothes were selected in advance. If they get dirty, I have to change into another one. The clothes in the staff quarters are a little older.
Ye Tao wiped the water stains from the corners of her mouth and said mysteriously, "I know what you are planning to do by wearing this dress?"
Qi Mengmeng: ...What do you mean?
Ye Tao approached Qi Mengmeng and said, "Does Zheng Yingying have a boyfriend? I saw her going upstairs with a young man."
Qi Mengmeng didn't expect Le Kangtai and the others to come so early, and were seen by Ye Tao.
Seeing Qi Mengmeng didn't say anything, Ye Tao continued, "I think the young man looks quite energetic, but the old couple seem to be from the countryside. Did your father agree that Zheng Yingying should find someone from the countryside?"
Qi Zhijun has raised Zheng Yingying for so many years, and everyone knows that she is not Qi Zhijun's biological daughter, but who doesn't like to hear gossip.
Qi Zhijun's biological daughter found a deputy head of the group, so Gu Guizhi will definitely achieve greater success in the future.
Zheng Yingying is looking for a rural partner. The gap seems a bit big?
Qi Mengmeng didn't want to hear such gossip. She thought for a moment and explained, "It was Yingying's colleague at school who introduced Yingying to a date. He's also a teacher. I don't know anything else."
Teachers nowadays are not as popular as they were in later generations, so when Ye Tao heard that Zheng Yingying's partner was a teacher, she couldn't help but curl her lips: "Yingying is a teacher herself, why is she still looking for a teacher?"
Although Zheng Yingying's school is okay, who knows what the teachers will be like in the future? If Ye Tao were to choose, she would definitely not let her daughter marry a teacher.
Qi Mengmeng smiled and didn't answer. She knew that in two years, this situation would improve and teachers would be more popular than other jobs.
Just the two holidays every year are unmatched by other jobs.
Ye Tao then asked, "Does your father agree to their marriage?"
Qi Mengmeng shook her head: "I don't know the details yet."
It's fun to eat melons, but if it happens to one's own people, forget it. She doesn't want to become the topic of conversation for others after dinner.
Seeing that Qi Mengmeng didn't want to talk, Ye Tao didn't continue the topic. Instead, she talked about another lively scene in the family compound.
Li Pandi boils medicine in the family compound every day. Has a military wife already come to visit her?
Qi Mengmeng didn't expect Li Pandi to be so obsessed with having a child. She couldn't help but ask, "Is it because the medicine smells too bad?"
Chinese medicine tastes bitter, and some people can't smell it.
Unexpectedly, Ye Tao shook her head: "No, Chunni wants to eat too."
Qi Mengmeng thought about it and didn't know who Chunni was.
Ye Tao reminded her, "Chun Ni is the wife of the Second Battalion Commander of the Second Regiment. After giving birth to two daughters, she has not been able to get pregnant. She has been looking for medicine everywhere. Now she heard that Li Pan Di has medicine, so she went to find her."
Qi Mengmeng was stunned. Can Chinese medicine be taken casually?
Ye Tao also sighed: "Several people have advised Chunni to wait and see. Although Li Pandi has been taking medicine, she is not pregnant yet, but she can't wait."
Chunni was fine, but the second battalion commander's family favored boys over girls, so their two daughters had been left in their hometown. Chunni wanted to get pregnant quickly and bring her two daughters out.
Qi Mengmeng shook her head. The problem of favoring boys over girls has existed since ancient times and is really difficult to solve.
Ye Tao looked at Qi Mengmeng's belly with concern: "Mengmeng, you are still young and you haven't been married for long, so you must not take medicine just to have a child."
Qi Mengmeng nodded: "Don't worry, Sister Taozi, Guizhi and I have discussed it, and we will let nature take its course when it comes to having a child."
Ye Tao nodded and said, "As long as Deputy Commander Gu is not in a hurry, you must not take medicine carelessly. I tell you, taking medicine may cause harm."
In order to make Qi Mengmeng believe, Ye Tao told her stories of people who took drugs to change the sex of their babies when they got pregnant, and of people who took drugs for a long time but got sick before getting pregnant.
Qi Mengmeng certainly knew that medicines should not be taken randomly, but she was still very grateful that Ye Tao specifically mentioned this.
Ye Tao also talked about some other things in the family compound. Some time ago, the nursery in the family compound was recruiting people, and several family members signed up. They almost fought in order to go to work.
Later, the Political Department stepped in and selected two family members with high academic qualifications.
"There aren't many people in there right now. I sent Tiantian in. Otherwise, she would have nothing to do at home while her two brothers were at school."
Since the establishment of the nursery, there are fewer children in the family compound. Of course, the nurseries here only ensure that there is someone to look after the children, and they basically do not teach any knowledge.
Later on, Qi Mengmeng only needed to agree from time to time, and Ye Tao told her everything that had happened in the family compound during that period.
When Qi Mengmeng saw that Ye Tao's cup was empty, she immediately refilled her water. After Ye Tao finished telling her story, she drank five full cups of water.
After she finished talking, she felt her stomach bloating, and she stood up: "Oh, I'll go out for a while."
She hurried to the bathroom. Qi Mengmeng took the opportunity to look at her watch. It was already past 10 o'clock.
When Ye Tao came out of the bathroom, Qi Mengmeng smiled at her shyly: "Sister Taozi, I have to go to my dad's place."
Ye Tao had an understanding look on her face: "I know, I know, let's go together."
Qi Mengmeng felt a little helpless. She never knew Ye Tao was such a good person.
She went into the house and took out the fruits that had been prepared long ago. On a day like today, she definitely couldn't go to the door empty-handed.
Ye Tao's eyes fell on the apple in Qi Mengmeng's hand, and she couldn't move her eyes away: "Mengmeng, where did you buy this apple? It looks really good."
Produced by Space, quality is guaranteed.
Qi Mengmeng took out an apple and gave it to Ye Tao, but Ye Tao said she didn't want anything. She just wanted to buy some, not take advantage of Qi Mengmeng.
Ye Tao forced the apple back, but Qi Mengmeng said that if she saw apples like this again, she would buy her two kilograms.
So, the two of them went to the family building together, and then separated on the second floor. Ye Tao went home, and Qi Mengmeng went to Qi Zhijun's house.
