Qi Mengmeng thought that the matter of Zheng Yingying giving birth was over, but she didn't expect that An Jing's mother would come to her house at noon the next day.
When Qi Mengmeng opened the door and saw An's mother, she was stunned for a moment: "Auntie, why are you here? Come in quickly."
She thought An's mother wanted to ask her for help with something, but she didn't expect that An's mother just came to thank her.
"I just bought a piece of cloth and some food. These are all bought especially for you. You can't refuse them."
Mother An put the things in her hand on the table: a piece of plain cloth that was just right for Qi Mengmeng's age, two bottles of malted milk, and two bottles of canned fruit.
There aren't many things, but the prices are high.
Qi Mengmeng smiled helplessly: "Auntie, I didn't do anything, you don't have to be so polite."
Mother An wiped the tears from her eyes and said, "Why didn't you do anything? If it weren't for you, Xiaojing wouldn't know how long she would have waited at the door of the delivery room."
Qi Mengmeng did not respond to this. She took out a handkerchief from her pocket and handed it to An's mother, then poured her a cup of brown sugar water and placed it in front of her.
Mother An only lost her composure for a moment. Now that she sees that Qi Mengmeng is not a talkative person, she actually wants to confide in her.
An Jing also has a brother who is one year older than her. After graduating from high school, he worked in a pharmaceutical factory with the help of his family and got married.
When An Jing graduated from high school, it was the hottest time to go to the countryside. Although An's father was already looking for a job for An Jing, many people were eyeing their family.
In order not to affect the work of An's father and mother, An Jing signed up to go to the countryside. By the time An's mother found out, the list had already been submitted.
An's father thought of a way to change An Jing's location in the countryside to a place near the provincial capital. Even if An Jing could not go home often, they could still visit her.
As long as An Jing stayed in the countryside for two years, An's father would be able to find a job for An Jing in the city. However, An Jing accidentally fell into the water while washing clothes and was rescued by Wang Jun. She was also seen by the whole village.
For the sake of reputation, An Jing married Wang Jun.
Wang Jun has attended junior high school and is the only son in the family. He has a good reputation in the village. Although he is a country boy, he promised that he would always be good to An Jing in the future.
Although An's father and mother were reluctant, they had no choice but to agree to their marriage under the circumstances.
After marriage, Wang Jun hinted several times that he wanted to come to the city to work. Before An's parents could make a decision, An Jing became pregnant.
After a few months of living together after marriage, An Jing had already seen clearly the character of her in-laws. She didn't want her parents to find connections for Wang Jun, so the matter of moving to the city was delayed.
What An's mother meant was that she wanted An Jing to give the child to the Wang family while she went into the city alone.
Qi Mengmeng thought of the woman with indifferent eyes and sighed. She felt that An Jing would not abandon the child.
Mother An just felt very upset, so she said all that in front of Qi Mengmeng. Now that she had finished speaking, she felt embarrassed.
"Mengmeng, what Auntie just said..."
Qi Mengmeng smiled knowingly: "Auntie, I was distracted just now, what did you say?"
"You are a good child and you are very smart. In the future, let Xiaojing learn more from you." Mother An patted Qi Mengmeng's hands and was very pleased with her reaction.
No one is born with a clear mind, it is just forced upon them by the affairs of life.
However, Qi Mengmeng felt that there was no need to tell these words to An's mother.
Mother An talked to Qi Mengmeng for half an hour, and when she left, she wished she could adopt Qi Mengmeng as her goddaughter.
Although she has a daughter and a daughter-in-law, there is still a layer between them. An Jing has not been at home for the past two years and her mind is a little sensitive. She was afraid that she would say something wrong and An Jing would think too much.
But there was no such feeling in front of Qi Mengmeng. No matter what she said, Qi Mengmeng did not refute.
Since she and Qi Mengmeng did not have any direct acquaintance, she was not worried about these words spreading.
Mother An felt satisfied when she left. Qi Mengmeng looked at her watch and breathed a sigh of relief. It was almost time and she couldn't sleep at noon today.
Fortunately, An's mother only came this time and never came again.
Half a month later, it was noon again. Qi Mengmeng had just finished her meal when someone knocked on the door again. Qi Mengmeng went to open the door and it was Zheng Meili outside.
Zheng Meili said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mengmeng, did I disturb your rest?"
Qi Mengmeng smiled and said that she had just finished her meal and had not started her lunch break yet.
"I have to wait until Xiaoxue falls asleep at Yingying's house before I can come out, otherwise Yingying won't be able to take care of Xiaoxue at home alone."
Zheng Meili's face was full of smiles when she mentioned Le Yingxue, the daughter born to Zheng Yingying.
Qi Mengmeng poured her some water and waited for her to tell her the purpose of her visit today.
Zheng Meili first told her about the situation in the past few days since Le Yingxue was born, and then said, "I plan to go back tomorrow, so I came here to tell you today."
It has been almost a month since Zheng Meili came back. She estimated that Qi Zhijun should be going back soon. Although she was reluctant to let him go, she had to go back.
"Mengmeng, I'm coming to see you. Just tell me if there's anything you need my help with."
Of course Qi Mengmeng knew that this was just a polite remark, so she smiled and said that she was fine, and said that she would prepare some food for her.
Zheng Meili quickly stood up: "No, I can just prepare some food myself tomorrow."
Qi Mengmeng has to go to work tomorrow, so it is not convenient for her to send Zheng Meili off. She asks Zheng Meili to wait for a while while she goes to prepare some food.
Zheng Meili said no, but Qi Mengmeng went straight to the kitchen to get something, and Zheng Meili couldn't refuse what she took out.
Brown sugar, dates, noodles, milk powder, and a can of fermented glutinous rice.
These things were prepared for Zheng Yingying rather than Zheng Meili.
"I asked someone to buy some things for Yingying, but I don't have time to deliver them these days because I'm at work, so I'll trouble Aunt Zheng to bring them over."
"It's not convenient for Aunt Zheng to take the train, so I won't prepare more things for her. I'll send them to you when she returns. When my dad comes back from his mission, ask him to send me a telegram, otherwise I won't be at ease."
Zheng Meili looked at those things and nodded quickly: "Mengmeng, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of your dad."
Qi Zhijun is in good health and does a good job, which is good for both her and Zheng Yingying.
Zheng Meili left with her things. Qi Mengmeng looked at her watch and it was time to go to work again.
A few days later, Qi Mengmeng received a telegram from Qi Zhijun, saying, "I've replied, I'm safe."
Now, she was completely relieved.
The weather was getting warmer. When Qi Mengmeng went back to the village last time, she learned that Zhang Meiling had a cold, and she was a little worried. This week was not the time they had agreed on, so she went back to the staff quarters and went to the village again.
But as soon as she entered the village, she realized something was wrong. Usually at this time of year, the village was very quiet, but today, it seemed that something had happened in the village. There were groups of people standing in the village, discussing something.
