420 I have to go to the train station right away to buy a ticket and bring Xiaomei back!
The last time he went back to the village, Mumu left Xiaomeizi his contact information, and they have maintained a frequency of writing to each other every two or three months.
It was Mumu who started writing the first letter to Xiaomeizi. Such a careless boy actually remembered to put a reply envelope and reminded her to remember to write back.
Xiao Meizi felt embarrassed not to reply, and besides, Mumu was Xiao Meizi's "creditor", and the wife's capital that Mumu used to marry was still with her. So after she replied to Mumu's first letter, things got out of control.
It was agreed before that Fu Yuanhang and Mumu would try to find time to go back to the village once every winter and summer vacation. In fact, when they entered junior high school, time became especially precious, and the production tasks in the factory became increasingly heavy.
Whenever they had time, they worked part-time in the factory to earn money for their studies, and even reduced the frequency of playing basketball. In the past two years, they have not returned to Qinglian Village once.
Mumu would write letters to people whenever he had time, and occasionally put a few dollars in the envelope, under the pretext of asking Xiaomei to save money for him to get married. He would then let her spend the money promptly and return it to him when she grew up and started working and earning money.
Mumu was careless and never kept track of how much money she had sent to Xiaomeizi, but Xiaomeizi carefully recorded it in a small notebook, even the price of the stamps on each reply envelope.
She carefully tore off the stamp with the postmark and stuck it into her most precious notebook.
Every time Mumu wrote back, she would remember to enclose a reply envelope and would also ask Fu Yuanhang to write a few words.
Mumu has always been a chatterbox, probably because Xiaomeizi's impoverished little hut left him with a huge psychological shadow.
Sometimes he would send Xiao Meizi some of Zhong Nv Tu's discarded clothes and shoes, and he would write in the letter:
——"Xiao Meizi, our daughter Zhong has gained weight again. She can't even fit into her nice clothes. I sent them to you. You can give them to whoever needs them. If Zhong keeps gaining weight at this rate, she will probably have to buy new clothes every year. Thank you for helping me deal with it."
Isn't this just right for Little Mei's grandmother? No one else but Mumu can say thank you after you've taken the trouble to mail something to someone.
Later, Mumu's family had a new sister-in-law, Pingguo, and he had another reason to send things to Xiaomeizi:
——"Xiao Meizi, my brother is such a fool. He bought a pair of shoes that were too small for my sister-in-law the first time! She said she had worn them before and he didn't let her change them. My sister-in-law was really mad. Do you think you can wear them? We don't have any other girls in our family. It's a pity to leave them alone. Don't waste them if you can wear them."
It was clearly Mumu who used the pocket money she earned from working part-time to buy the shoes for Xiaomeizi, but she insisted that Mo Jiazhe bought the shoes too small for Chen Pingguo and asked him to deal with it. There was no one else to blame except Mumu.
Xiao Meizi told Mumu many times in her letters not to send her anything by mail or money, or she would not reply to his letters.
Mumu was quiet for a while, but every time he saw something suitable for Xiaomei, he couldn't help but want to buy it for her.
The poor girl with a big pigtail, a dry and shy smile, living in a thatched hut and wearing straw sandals, who was so moved that she cried when she finally got a bite of chicken but still wanted to save a bite for her grandma, touched the only bit of delicateness in the careless Mumu's heart.
Mumu has always been sincere to the people he cares about, such as Fu Yuanhang, Chen Chen, and Kangzi and the others, but he is more compassionate to Xiaomeizi.
"What's wrong?" Fu Yuanhang asked.
Mumu put away all the smiles on her face, took a deep breath, and handed the letter to Fu Yuanhang:
"Those people are so abominable! Ah Hang, let's go back to Qinglian Village and bring Xiao Meizi here while we still have time."
Fu Yuanhang took the letter, read it quickly, and frowned deeply:
"Calm down. Although Xiao Meizi's grandmother is gone, we have no family relationship with Xiao Meizi. Why would we bring her here? She may not be willing to do so."
Mumu said angrily, "Are we just going to watch Xiaomei drop out of school and let those people who have nothing to do with her take her home to work like a slave, and then get a dowry for nothing when she gets old enough?"
Xiao Meizi's grades are very good. She often gets full marks in exams and ranks first every year. She initially imitated Fu Yuanhang's handwriting, but later she developed her own style through practice. Her beautiful small handwriting is incredibly beautiful.
Every time Xiaomeizi wrote to him, Mumu wanted to read her words a few more times.
"Have they ever raised Xiao Meizi? Have they ever helped Xiao Meizi's grandmother? When they were in such trouble, these so-called relatives avoided them. Now that they have benefits, Xiao Meizi, who is such a laborer, wants to pick fruits for free. How can it be so cheap?"
Mumu became angrier and angrier as he spoke: "No, I have to go to the train station right away to buy a ticket and bring Xiaomei back!"
Mumu said this and was about to ride away.
"Calm down." Fu Yuanhang held the front of Mumu's car. "Don't you see what time it is? Are you planning to ride your bike to town? By the time you get there, everyone will be off work.
There is no rush for this matter. Let's go back and discuss it with my sister-in-law and then make a long-term plan."
Mumu thought about it and said, "Yes, yes, yes, my godmother loves Xiaomeizi. I need to discuss this with her. Come on, I'll stay at your house for dinner tonight. Xiaomeizi can't wait. We need to work out a plan as soon as possible!"
In fact, Zhou Linglan also sent a lot of things to Xiao Meizi. Many of the things that Mumu sent back were from Zhou Linglan, Su Taotao, and some were local specialties. Because of Mumu, both families loved Xiao Meizi very much.
The children were eager to return home and hurried home in silence.

I'll fill in the blanks of Xiaomei first. The article is not long. Good night. Mua
