Several people stared at Qi Mengmeng. She smiled and passed the buck to Qi Huilan: "I think I should ask my mother about this. I just hope she can find someone who treats her well in the future."
Xiang Hong's eyes were fixed on Liu Dajiang. He seemed to have something to say but didn't say it.
"Mengmeng, your fifth uncle brought you a basket today. It was woven by our neighbor. It's really nice. I'll take it and show it to you."
Xiang Hong pulled Qi Mengmeng and asked her to go to the yard to look.
The two walked to the door, but Li Laowu didn't move at all. Xiang Hong called him, "Laowu, what are you still doing in the room? Come and find it. Where did you put it?"
Li Laowu's face was full of confusion. Why didn't he remember bringing a basket? But Xiang Hong was staring at him, so he didn't dare to say the rest of the words.
The three of them went to the yard, and soon only Liu Dajiang and Qi Huilan were left in the room.
Qi Huilan felt a little flustered and wanted to go out, but was stopped by Liu Dajiang.
"Huilan, I have something to tell you."
"I'm going to go see my sister-in-law and see if I need to get them anything." Qi Huilan didn't want to hear what Liu Dajiang said.
"Huilan, will you marry me?" Liu Dajiang said what was in his heart anxiously. Qi Huilan stood there in a daze, not daring to look back at him.
"You are single now, and I don't have a wife either. I will take good care of you in the future. I am the deputy director now, and I may be promoted in the future. All the money I earn will be given to you."
Qi Huilan turned around and looked at him, unable to put it into words: "I..."
"I've already called Zhijun and told him, I like you, Zhijun, I have no objection."
"How could you call and tell him this?" Qi Huilan was angry and furious.
"Zhijun and I have been brothers for so many years, I have to tell him something. When I came back, Zhijun told me that even if you two are not husband and wife, you are still his sister."
"Meng Meng just said that she hopes you will find someone who treats you well in the future. I will definitely treat you well in the future. Will you marry me?"
Liu Dajiang stepped forward and grabbed Qi Huilan's hand, which scared Qi Huilan so much that she quickly looked towards the yard.
Qi Mengmeng and Xiang Hong shrank behind the door, afraid of being seen by Qi Huilan.
"Ge Tiezhu is going to the northwest soon. No one will mention your affairs anymore. Can you let me take care of you?"
Liu Dajiang was provoked by Xiang Hong today. He was worried that if he didn't say these words, Qi Huilan would fall in love with someone else.
Qi Mengmeng was outside and saw his eyes shining. She didn't expect Liu Dajiang's words to be so powerful. This blocked all the reasons for Qi Huilan to refuse and made Qi Huilan no longer have any worries.
Inside the house, Qi Huilan also came back to her senses. She pushed away Liu Dajiang's hand, lowered her head so that people couldn't see her expression, and lowered her voice by two centimeters: "Dajiang, you should find a younger one."
"I don't like young people," Liu Dajiang said, lowering his voice. "Huilan, I'm telling you the truth. It's not just my age that's the problem. My body is injured. I can't have children in the future. If I find a young one, do you think she will dislike me?"
Qi Huilan opened her eyes wide and didn't speak for a while.
Liu Dajiang's eyes lit up, and he continued, "The doctor said that I will never be able to have my own children in this lifetime. From now on, I will treat Mengmeng like my own daughter. Do you think that's okay?"
Qi Huilan hesitated, she didn't know whether what Liu Dajiang said was true or false.
"If you marry me, I can support Mengmeng. If Guizhi treats Mengmeng badly, I will take care of him." Liu Dajiang's words became smoother and smoother.
"You said before that Guizhi would definitely treat Mengmeng well." Qi Huilan was led astray by Liu Dajiang.
"I'm talking about if. I will definitely treat Mengmeng well in the future." Liu Dajiang was almost swearing.
Qi Huilan was really hesitant. Ever since her divorce from Ge Tiezhu, she had no intention of remarrying, so she tried her best to avoid Liu Dajiang.
But now Liu Dajiang says that we can’t have children in the future, and he will treat Mengmeng as his own child. Doesn’t that mean Mengmeng has an extra support?
For a moment, Qi Huilan felt that remarriage might be something she could consider.
Liu Dajiang saw Qi Huilan lost in thought and was about to speak when Qi Mengmeng and Xiang Hong pushed the door and walked in.
Xiang Hong said to Qi Huilan, "Huilan, it's getting dark. Lao Wu and I are going back."
Qi Huilan came back to her senses, her face a little red. She ignored Liu Dajiang beside her and hurriedly picked up the basket on the ground and handed it to Xiang Hong.
Qi Mengmeng stepped forward and took the basket: "Aunt, I'll give it to you."
She took the opportunity to put a piece of bacon in the basket, walked to the yard and put the basket on the car.
Li Laowu pulled the ox cart out, and Xiang Hong took the opportunity to remind Qi Mengmeng to ask Qi Huilan what she thought, and it would be best if she could settle it with Liu Dajiang.
"Mengmeng, don't think your aunt is realistic. When you go to the army, your mother will have a hard time living alone. If you miss Director Liu, there may not be such a good man who will be interested in your mother in the future."
Xiang Hong was afraid that Qi Mengmeng wouldn't take it seriously, so she reminded her in her ear.
Qi Mengmeng knew that Xiang Hong had good intentions, so she nodded and agreed to persuade Qi Huilan in the evening.
But when only Qi Huilan and Qi Mengmeng were left at home, Qi Mengmeng didn't say anything.
She hopes Qi Huilan and Liu Dajiang can be together, but only if Qi Huilan is willing and not forced to agree by them.
After they finished washing up, Qi Mengmeng wanted to go back to her room to sleep. Qi Huilan held Qi Mengmeng's hand and was silent for a minute before asking if Qi Mengmeng agreed if she married Liu Dajiang.
Qi Mengmeng did not see any shyness in Qi Huilan's eyes, only uneasiness. She answered seriously: "Mom, whether you will remarry in the future and who you will remarry, as long as you are happy, it's fine. I'm already married, and you should also think more about yourself."
Qi Huilan was stunned. She didn't expect Qi Mengmeng to say that.
"What if I don't get married?" she murmured.
"Whether you get married or not, I will provide for your old age," Qi Mengmeng replied, and added, "I will support whatever decision you make."
There was something vague in Qi Huilan's eyes. Her decisions and her two marriages were all decided by Grandpa Qi. Now, when she was asked to choose for herself, she felt a little nervous.
Seeing that she was in a really difficult situation, Qi Mengmeng told her to just stop thinking about it for the time being. After all, she had just gotten divorced, and it would be good for the mother and daughter to have some quiet time.
Qi Huilan nodded heavily and went back to her room to sleep.
Qi Mengmeng shook her head. She felt that Liu Dajiang's journey to pursue his wife might be a long one.
Qi Huilan's subsequent reaction was similar to what Qi Mengmeng had guessed. She maintained a regular life of going to work and going home every day.
Liu Dajiang was busy with work and it was not convenient for him to come to Qi's house often during his rest time. He only met Qi Huilan once in a week. He met her when he took someone to the hospital for treatment and they nodded to each other.
Qi Mengmeng doesn't have to work, so she just stays at home and fiddles with things in the space every day. She takes out all kinds of meat in the space and makes them into braised spare ribs and braised pork. She also chops the meat into stuffing and makes a lot of buns to store in the space.
In order to prevent the neighbors from smelling it, she always closed the doors and windows tightly when cooking. However, people usually eat little meat and are sensitive to the smell of meat. After a few days, someone noticed it. When she was stewing ribs again, someone was knocking on the door outside.
