Lu Xiaochun didn't stay at Grandma Wu's house for long. She was lucky this time when she came back and encountered a ox cart. She might not be so lucky when she goes back, so she has to go back early.
When Grandma Wu heard that Lu Xiaochun was leaving, she wanted to give her half a basket of eggs.
Lu Xiaochun refused to accept it.
"Mother-in-law, I live in a dormitory now and have no place to boil eggs. You can keep these eggs for yourself."
"Take them to the cafeteria and ask them to help cook them. I picked these out. They're very big."
Granny Wu insisted that Lu Xiaochun take the eggs away. Lu Xiaochun had no choice but to quietly put two dollars on the table when he left.
After Lu Xiaochun returned to the city, he first bought two kilograms of egg cakes, and then went to Qi Mengmeng's house with the eggs and egg cakes.
"Xiaochun, why did you bring things again?" Qi Mengmeng felt helpless when she saw the things Lu Xiaochun brought.
"These are for An An and Kang Kang, right?" Lu Xiaochun greeted An An and Kang Kang with a smile.
When Qi Mengmeng heard her say this, she didn't refuse again. However, when Lu Xiaochun left, Qi Mengmeng brought her some canned meat sauce she made herself.
"If the cafeteria doesn't have the food you like, just add some meat sauce and adjust the taste."
Tears welled up in Lu Xiaochun's eyes immediately. She couldn't help but hug Qi Mengmeng and murmured, "Sister Mengmeng, you are so kind."
Although he encountered a lot of bad things after entering the city, meeting Qi Mengmeng was the luckiest thing that ever happened to Lu Xiaochun.
Qi Mengmeng didn’t know what Lu Xiaochun had encountered, she just felt that Lu Xiaochun looked like he had a lot on his mind.
"What are you thinking about?" Gu Guizhi hugged her from behind.
"Nothing. I was thinking of going to see Xiaoman tomorrow. We'll be leaving in a few days." Qi Mengmeng wanted to go to Beijing early to see Grandpa Jiang and Zhang Meiling first. If she had the chance, she also wanted to buy a house.
Gu Guizhi hugged Qi Mengmeng into the house.
"Hunzi has been at work these days. I'll go and tell him tonight that we can go to the state-owned restaurant for lunch tomorrow."
Yu Xiaoman is about to give birth, so it is no longer convenient for her to cook. Qi Mengmeng is taking care of An An and Kang Kang, so it is not convenient for her to cook for so many people. It is best for them to eat at a state-owned restaurant.
Qi Mengmeng tidied up the things at home and brought malted milk and milk powder for Yu Xiaoman.
Yu Xiaoman was very happy when he saw Qi Mengmeng.
These days, her health has recovered well and she can walk around the house, but Hunzi doesn't let her cook and only lets her watch Xiaodouzi play at home.
Xiao Douzi knew that Yu Xiaoman was not in good health, so he didn't make any noise and just sat next to Yu Xiaoman and played quietly.
Every time Qi Mengmeng saw Xiao Douzi, she felt that the child came to repay her gratitude. Then she thought of her own two children, An An and Kang Kang, who were still young but had already revealed their personalities. She felt that other people’s children were indeed better.
When Yu Xiaoman saw the malted milk and milk powder that Qi Mengmeng brought, he said a few words as usual and went to the kitchen to take out a few small jars.
"I know you'll be going to the capital in a few days. It may take several months for you to come back. I watched this gangster make this. You can take it to the capital to eat."
The small jar contains meat sauce and pickles, which is Yu Xiaoman’s unique secret recipe.
Qi Mengmeng was deeply touched: "The bastard didn't even let you get out of bed, how did you convince him to do these things?"
Yu Xiaoman smiled and did not answer the question.
She and Hunzi can have the good life they have today, thanks to Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng. Seeing that they are going to be away for such a long time, of course she has to show her appreciation.
Her health has improved a lot. These things were made by the gangsters under her instructions. She tasted them and although they were not as good as those she made herself, they were better than those made by ordinary people.
"Mengmeng, after I give birth to this baby in my belly, I will make it and send it to you." Yu Xiaoman held Qi Mengmeng's hand, feeling reluctant.
"We can't buy food in the capital, so you should take care of yourself and the child first."
Although Qi Mengmeng likes the food made by Yu Xiaoman, she is not Zhou Paopi who always thinks about it.
"Xiao Man, you are about to give birth, and you are working every day. Who will take care of you after you give birth?"
Qi Mengmeng wants to lend her house to Yu Xiaoman, but she also has to ask Yu Xiaoman.
When Yu Xiaoman talked about this, his brows couldn't help but frown.
"I'm worried about this right now. When I gave birth to Xiaodouzi, it was Hunzi who took leave to take care of me. This time, I guess Hunzi will have to take leave again."
She is now just an acquaintance with her neighbors, and she really doesn't feel comfortable asking them to take care of her.
"Xiaoman, how long have you rented this house? How often do you pay the rent?" Qi Mengmeng suddenly asked this question.
"We have to pay the rent at the end of this month. We rent it on a yearly basis." Yu Xiaoman answered casually, then realized something.
"Then I want you to come over and help us look for a house. I wonder if you are willing?" Qi Mengmeng smiled and nodded at Yu Xiaoman.
"Mengmeng, are you willing to rent the house to us?" Yu Xiaoman's face was full of surprise.
The relationship between the two families is so good that Yu Xiaoman wanted to rent a house near Qi Mengmeng's home, but he never thought of renting Qi Mengmeng's house.
"It's not about renting. We are asking you to come over and help us look for a house?" Qi Mengmeng corrected Yu Xiaoman's statement.
"No, we can't live in your house for free." Yu Xiaoman firmly disagreed: "It's good enough that you are willing to rent the house to us. We can't take advantage of you."
No matter what Qi Mengmeng said, Yu Xiaoman insisted on paying the rent.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Qi Mengmeng knew Yu Xiaoman's character, so she didn't insist on saying no.
"If you move there and want to hire someone to help take care of your child, you can ask my master's wife. She is a very nice person. She helped me take care of my child for a few months and took good care of him."
"It would be great if Aunt Zhao is willing." Yu Xiaoman's face was full of surprise. She didn't expect that Qi Mengmeng not only helped her solve the housing problem, but also solved the problem of no one to take care of her.
"If Aunt Zhao is willing to help me take care of the children, I can go to work in the future." Yu Xiaoman now still wants to go back to work and earn money.
"Just discuss this matter with your master's wife." Qi Mengmeng knew that Zhao Xiaocao had nothing to do at home, so she briefly mentioned the matter. Zhao Xiaocao didn't seem to be reluctant at all at that time.
Yu Xiaoman was calculating when to move, as the place they live in now was all bought by themselves, and if they move, they will have to take everything with them.
If Qi Mengmeng hadn't stopped him, Yu Xiaoman would have started packing his things.
"Xiaoman, let me make it clear first, you can only move there after we leave." Qi Mengmeng joked with Yu Xiaoman.
"No problem, we only need to stay in one room and leave the other one for you." Yu Xiaoman is a person who is particularly easy to satisfy.
