However, thinking of the meaning behind their words, she frowned slightly, "Mom, why don't I remember what you said? Have we ever lived somewhere else?"
She had no impression of the environment they talked about, and it was different from the area near her home.
Meng Ying had just made someone angry and was now peeling an apple to apologize. She didn't even look up when she heard this. "You weren't even born when we first moved in. Plus, we only lived there for a few years. You were so young back then, how could you have any memory?"
When the houses were divided, she had just become pregnant. That was why she drew lots and got the first floor, so she didn't have to exchange houses with others. In the end, she became neighbors with the Jian family of three.
In addition, within a few years, both of them were promoted and received salary increases, so of course they had to change houses. Zhao Yueling was young and didn't remember much about her childhood, so how could she remember it clearly?
"Aunt, I remember, I remember, wasn't there a small pit next to the fence back then? The one where Lingling often went to the toilet?" Jianshu started to tease the girl whenever she got the chance. Of course, she didn't think so. She was clearly just doing a favor, okay?
"Haha, you still remember this?" Meng Ying was fair and collected, exposing every flaw. She didn't notice the gloomy look on her daughter's face, and couldn't hide the smile on her face.
"Of course I remember. Lingling loved that pit the most back then. She wouldn't go to the toilet unless it was there." Jianshu always found it funny when he thought of the past.
In the early days, there were only public toilets in the tube-shaped buildings, and no toilets at home. Going to the bathroom required running quite a distance. Adults could still bear it, but how could a child, still immature and not yet fully developed, endure it? Once the urge came, they couldn't wait even a minute.
What to do if you can't wait? Just find a place to deal with it. If it's small, don't worry, just treat it as fertilizer. If it's big, just shovel it up and pour it into the toilet afterwards, so it won't be visible.
Zhao Yueling has shown an unusual persistence since she was a child. She loves reading and has been doing so for over a decade, unwaveringly. The same is true when it comes to using the bathroom: once she's settled on a spot, she'll never leave, shoveling away layer after layer of dirt until a small pit forms.
When she was a child, Jianshu tricked the naive little Zhao Yueling into planting peach pits there, telling her that the land was fertile and would definitely produce big, sweet peaches.
Zhao Yueling was fooled by her and ran there three times a day to see if her peach tree had grown. Unfortunately, the peach tree did not grow until she moved. Later, the child grew up and was deceived many times, so she gradually forgot about it.
But when Jianshu mentioned it, the dead memories in her mind came back to life.
Zhao Yueling was struck by lightning. She had actually done such a thing in the past. Burying peach pits in the pit would have been fine, but the key point was that the pit was created because of her!
Can you understand that feeling?
What is she thinking at this moment?
I regretted asking! Extremely regretful! Why did she ask that question out of idleness? What happened to the house she lived in before? Why was she so curious?
Now it’s okay, the dark history of your childhood has been revealed, right?
Ahhhh——
Zhao Yueling had a blank expression on her face, but if you looked closely you could tell her soul was about to ascend to heaven.
Goodbye, Mom, now I'm going to sail away!
On the other side, the unscrupulous mother and the wronged sister did not let him go and were still discussing it enthusiastically.
"By the way, did the peach pit you buried back then sprout?" Meng Ying also remembered this and asked while cutting the apple into small pieces.
Speaking of this, Jianshu sighed, "No, I don't know if there was something wrong with the peach pit I chose. If I had known earlier, I would have planted peach seedlings directly." Maybe I would have been able to eat peaches that I planted myself a long time ago.
Zhao Yueling interrupted quietly, "If the peaches really sprout, would you dare to eat them?" Think about how that pit appeared?
"Eat! Why not?" Unexpectedly, Jianshu didn't play by the rules. He agreed immediately and asked, "Why not? Didn't you just use the toilet there before? What's the big deal? Aren't the vegetables and fruits you eat fertilized? If you mind that, then don't eat anything and just starve to death!"
And to be honest, the hole where I planted the trees has never been soiled. I always shovel it away immediately to ensure it is clean!
Zhao Yueling: "..." She finally understood why she was deceived every time. This kind of psychological quality is really not something that ordinary people can have.
If it were someone else, even if they understood this, they would still feel a little uncomfortable, right? How could they be as indifferent as she was?
Zhao Yueling was convinced, completely convinced, and gave Jian Shu a thumbs up, "Sister, you are awesome, you win!"
She should just be a good and obedient sister. Isn't it just being cheated and deceived? She has long been used to it!
Fearless!
"Of course, I'm your sister!" Jian Shu smiled proudly. If an older sister isn't strong enough, how can she protect her younger sister?
With the two sisters singing in unison, they quickly reconciled and hugged each other affectionately. Gu Mingjing, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but close his eyes.
No wonder they say women's hearts are as unfathomable as the sea. Sometimes, he really doesn't know what they are thinking.
Is it so easy to make peace? Are you no longer angry so quickly?
Then why was it so difficult for him to coax his wife in the past?
This comparison is really too tragic!
Unfortunately, he was just sitting here as a foil and couldn't join in the conversation between the women at all.
The topic jumped quickly and soon turned to other places.
Meng Ying looked at Jian Shu's bulging belly, touched it, and smiled. "It seems Ming Jing takes good care of you. You did everything I said."
Jianshu feels a little guilty. It is true that he did what he was told, but the use of the word "all" is not quite accurate.
But who is she? She's the type who speaks loudly even when she's being told no reason. How could she possibly confess now?
"Of course, I followed all the instructions you sent me, Auntie!"
Meng Ying knew her very well. As soon as she heard what she said, she knew there was something fishy going on. She must be pretending to obey but actually disobeying her.
However, considering that she is well taken care of overall, I won't bother with her.
"Yeah, very good. You have to take good care of yourself later on. Don't lie in bed every day and refuse to move. Giving birth requires strength. Besides, it's not easy to give birth with a big belly. You are the best now." After saying that, he pushed the half-eaten apple on the small table to the side. "Don't eat too much fruit, even the best things should be eaten in moderation."
Jianshu looked at Apple getting farther and farther away with a wronged look on his face, pouting and not daring to say anything.
Meng Ying was worried that she would feel itchy and uncomfortable, so she asked Gu Mingjing and Zhao Yueling to each finish off the remaining apples and completely eliminate them.
All of a sudden I lost all thought about it, and I didn’t even have the chance to watch it to satisfy my craving.
