Chapter 25: Going to Watch the Fun



Qi Mengmeng stood up slowly, put the melon seeds in her pocket, and smiled: "What? I can't be at home?"

Ge Tiezhu's face was full of embarrassment: "I thought you were going to the countryside soon, so you should go buy something."

Qi Mengmeng said without giving him any face: "My mother has to go to work today, so I will stay at home to watch over you in case you are not at home often and don't know what to move."

If Ge Tiezhu hadn't brought people with him, Qi Mengmeng would never have called him Uncle Ge because he didn't deserve it.

"Mengmeng, you still don't believe me." Ge Tiezhu looked hurt.

Qi Mengmeng didn't want to act with him, so she stepped aside and said, "Uncle Ge is different now. Go clean up. I have to cook for my mother later."

Ge Tiezhu originally thought that since Qi Huilan was at work today, he could take the opportunity to move the sewing machine from home. Pan Dahua had always wanted one, but he didn't have a ticket and was reluctant to spend the money.

He didn't expect that Qi Mengmeng was at home, and she looked like she was afraid that he would move things away from the house.

He plans to go to the street office tomorrow to remind them that Qi Mengmeng has already signed up to go to the countryside, so she has to leave quickly.

When Qi Mengmeng saw that Ge Tiezhu's facial expression was a little distorted, she guessed that he was up to no good.

In order to prevent Ge Tiezhu and Ge Wenling from causing trouble, Qi Mengmeng never told her family that she had a fiancé.

As long as she and Gu Guizhi get their marriage certificate tomorrow, they won't have to worry about going to the countryside, but today, it is still quite dangerous.

Ge Tiezhu gritted his teeth and prepared to wait for Qi Mengmeng to go to the countryside before moving the sewing machine home. He forced a smile to the person behind him and said, "Zhuzi, wait here for me. I'll go and pack up first."

Zhuzi responded obediently and stood in the yard.

Qi Mengmeng did not follow Ge Tiezhu back to the house. She knew that all Ge Tiezhu's assets were in the widow's house, and there were only a few of Ge Tiezhu's clothes here.

If Ge Tiezhu had any dignity, he would not move the furniture out of his house.

Of course, she ignored the thickness of Ge Tiezhu's face.

Seeing Ge Tiezhu taking out all the quilts, Qi Mengmeng felt nothing. After all, Qi Huilan probably wouldn't want those quilts because she thought they were disgusting.

When Ge Tiezhu put the thermos on the tricycle, Qi Mengmeng stood up and said, "I remember this thermos was given by my mother's workplace."

Ge Tiezhu gritted his teeth and let it go.

Qi Mengmeng looked at the ceramic jar in the car and was a little surprised: "This ceramic jar seems to be bought by my mother."

As she spoke, she reached out and scratched it, her face speechless, and her words were a bit impolite.

"This jar contains the pickled eggs my mother made. These noodles were bought by her a few days ago. These are the ladies' slippers. Uncle Ge, can you take them away and wear them?"

Qi Mengmeng's words made Ge Tiezhu's face turn red, and he didn't even dare to look at the expression of Zhuzi behind him.

"I paid for all these, why can't I take them away?"

Ge Wenling came out of the house holding a bundle, her eyes red: "Qi Mengmeng, don't go too far. My dad has been paying money to the family every month over the years, so why can't he take some things away?"

Qi Mengmeng looked at the father and daughter, both of whom looked aggrieved. She sneered, "Yes, Uncle Ge pays 20 yuan a month, and the family doesn't care about anything. The clothes and shoes you are wearing were bought by my mother with extra money."

She emphasized the word "extra".

There was anger in Ge Tiezhu and Ge Wenling's eyes, but they couldn't refute it because Qi Mengmeng was telling the truth, otherwise Ge Tiezhu would not have saved so much money over the years.

Zhuzi's head had dropped to his chest. He was only called by Director Ge to move some things and didn't want to listen to so much gossip.

Qi Mengmeng looked at Ge Tiezhu who was about to have a stroke. She was worried that he might plot something behind her back, so she waved her hand and said, "Forget it. Just move all these things away. We will have nothing to do with each other in the future."

Ge Tiezhu's face turned pale. He went back to the house, took out a bundle, called Ge Wenling and left. When he reached the door, he turned around and glanced at Qi Mengmeng, his look full of anger.

Qi Mengmeng's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Ge Tiezhu had remembered her.

It seems that we need to find something for Ge Tiezhu to do so that he has no time to use any underhanded tricks.

Qi Mengmeng locked the door, went for a walk on the street, and then came back with a smile on her face.

Since Ge Tiezhu takes such good care of Pan Dahua, he can't do good deeds without leaving a name. He must let Pan Dahua's in-laws and her parents know about it.

With so many "relatives", Ge Tiezhu probably doesn't have time to cause trouble for the mother and daughter during this period.

Qi Mengmeng, in a good mood, went straight to the space. She wanted to check the food in the refrigerator and make something delicious for herself in the evening.

She first took out a piece of frozen spare ribs and soaked it in water to thaw and soak out the blood. She was going to make braised spare ribs. She then took out eggs and zucchini to make dumplings. There was plenty of white flour in the space anyway.

Although she would rather eat meat-filled ones, the meat is in the freezer. She doesn't know how long it will take for the meat to thaw and then be made into stuffing. Anyway, since she has the ribs, egg-filled ones will be fine. At worst, she can just add a few more eggs.

Qi Mengmeng, who had loose hands, fried six eggs, stirred them into the vegetable filling, sprinkled thirteen spices, scooped a spoonful of lard, and smelled it. It was delicious.

She kneaded the dough quickly, and the ribs were almost melted. She poured out the blood, washed them twice, and started to boil water in a pot to prepare the ribs.

She bought prime rib, which is best for making braised ribs.

In order to prevent the aroma of the braised spareribs from being too strong, she closed the doors and windows of the kitchen before frying the ribs, but even so, she still couldn't prevent the aroma from spreading.

Fortunately, they have their own house and yard. If they lived in a large compound, someone would definitely come and take advantage of them.

While Qi Mengmeng was stewing the spare ribs, she had quickly wrapped two layers of dumplings.

She had lived alone for a long time, so she cooked very quickly. By the time she had finished cleaning up everything, it was just time to get off work.

She tasted a piece of pork ribs, which were rich in broth, soft, salty and fragrant, and lived up to the standard. She nodded with satisfaction, took out the lunch box, filled it up, cooked another thirty dumplings, rinsed them with warm water, and put them in the lunch box.

She took the boiled water to the bedroom, wiped herself quickly, and changed her clothes. She could hear people talking outside the yard, and it seemed that they had already gotten off work.

She went to the kitchen to get some ribs and dumplings and went to Gu Guizhi's house.

Gu Guizhi might not have come back yet, as there was a big lock on the door. She took out the key to unlock it, walked in, went straight to the main room, put down the two lunch boxes, and took out a small note and put it on the lunch box.

Fortunately, she had prepared in advance and put down the lunch box in case Gu Guizhi was not at home.

After doing all this, Qi Mengmeng quickly went to Pan Dahahua's house. She had released the news in the afternoon and now she had to go and see the fun.
