Chapter 78 Reading the Letter
"Hello, Mengmeng. This is the address of my military unit. You can write to me. I'm looking forward to hearing from you." Li Meng opened Pei Yu's letter and saw the new address he mentioned. Then he started talking in a series of daily conversations. He didn't say a word about missing her, let alone sweet words.
This straight guy is really hopeless. Li Meng thought that when she wrote to him later, she must say some sweet words to make him sweeten to death!
In the letter, Pei Yu said that he is now learning to drive in the army and is gradually getting used to the training. The leaders are very nice to him and he likes life in the army very much.
Li Meng could imagine that Pei Yu's life must be full of hope now, and she had to keep up with Pei Yu's footsteps and get together with him as soon as possible.
Then she opened the letter her second uncle wrote to her, which said that her grandmother and second aunt missed her very much and had received all the things they had sent, and told her to just take care of herself and not to worry about them.
Li Meng put the letter away and thought that winter vacation would start in a week. She would go to town to sort out the warehouse matters during the vacation. Now she just wanted to get the house she had just set her eyes on.
The next day, Wu Ruirui and I started going to school early in the morning. On the way, we ate the big rice balls that Li Laidie had made for us in the morning. Although there was only a little bit of fried pickled cabbage in it, we both ate it with gusto.
When Li Meng arrived at the school, he was stopped by the village chief of Sanhe Village before he even entered the school gate.
"Teacher Li, can I talk to you alone?" Wang Daguo stopped Li Meng and wanted to talk to her about Li Juan.
Li Meng let Wu Ruirui go to the school first and she stayed to see what Village Chief Wang wanted to say to her.
"Village Chief Wang, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. I still have to go to class after I finish speaking," Li Meng said straight to the point.
"It's like this. Li Juan is making a scene again, saying that you framed her. She doesn't want to marry an old bachelor and wants to see you. She's making a scene quite fiercely, so we locked her up in the cowshed. Do you want to go see her?"
Hearing what Village Chief Wang said, Li Meng guessed that Li Juan must have promised some benefits to the village chief. Otherwise, Village Chief Wang would have plenty of ways to deal with an educated youth from outside the village, even if he had to kidnap her and marry her off, so why would he make this trip?
"Village Chief Wang, if she is not convinced, then report it to the police. I don't need to provide any witnesses or evidence. All the aunties and sisters who saw it can testify."
"There's no need for me to see her anymore. It's boring. Her affairs have nothing to do with me from now on. You decide what to do, village chief. It's no use coming to me," Li Meng said and said it was time to go to class.
Village chief Wang had to leave with an embarrassed smile. Li Meng guessed correctly that Li Juan had promised him that as long as he let Li Meng come to meet her, she would return all the money his son had spent on her after the matter was done. That's why the village chief made the trip.
As soon as the village chief returned home, his wife Li Guilan came up to him.
"Old man, how's the matter, Mr. Li, would you like to come meet this little bitch?"
"What do you think? I think we can just forget about it. The money won't be returned. It's just bad luck." Village chief Wang shook his head.
"This little bitch, tie her up and put her on the old bachelor's bed tomorrow and give her a good beating," Li Guilan said viciously.
Then he rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Old man, do you think Teacher Li is a perfect match for my son? He is also a city dweller. When we return to the city, you can bring my son with you. Then we can all go to the city and live as city dwellers. How great is that, don't you think?"
Village Chief Wang glanced at his wife who was daydreaming, shook his head and said, "I'm telling you, old woman, don't let your imagination run wild. Teacher Li is not an ordinary girl. I knew at first sight that she is not easy to mess with. Don't mess with her. Our son is not worthy of her."
"What's wrong? Why are you not worthy of each other? How could you, an old man, say that about your own son?" Li Guilan complained.
Village chief Wang still had some self-awareness, and said to his wife solemnly: "Just don't cause trouble. If any trouble occurs, I won't clean it up." After that, he went out to work.
Li Guilan didn't care and curled her lips, saying, "This is a good thing. What kind of trouble can it cause? If you don't go and ask, I will." After saying that, she twisted her big butt and went out.
In a military canteen during lunch time.
"Brother Wen, do you still have the meat sauce from last time? Give me a spoonful," a young man with a flat head said to Li Wen bitterly.
"Yes, Brother Wen, once you have tasted this, you will never forget it. Why don't you take it out and share it with your brothers?" another young man said, rubbing his hands with a smile.
Ever since Li Meng sent something to her brother Li Wen, Li Wen was a little confused. Who sent it to her? The mailing address was in the same province as his. Who could it be?
Later he found out that it was his sister Li Meng who came here to work as an educated youth. These were all sent to him by Li Meng. She was so touched at the time. As a brother, she didn't even think of taking care of her sister. How could her sister still think of him? It really made him feel ashamed.
It can be seen that the things sent were all put into practice. The warm autumn clothes and autumn trousers are suitable and warm to wear, not to mention the meat sauce. It is so delicious when you take a bite. There is a lot of meat in it. When I took it out, most of it was dug out by these guys. I felt so sorry for him.
I don't know how it got to the leader's ears, and he said bitterly that he wanted to taste it. So I reluctantly gave him a bottle, and saved the rest for myself. As a result, these little guys who tasted it kept staring at it.
"No more, just a little bit, and I want to save it." Li Wen said bluntly.
"Brother Wen, can you see if you can ask our sister to make something for us? I'll give you a ticket," said a soldier, and then the others joined in the fun.
"You think the meat here is easy to buy? Why does it smell so good? It's because there is a lot of meat in it. What are you thinking? Do you want to tire my sister to death? No, I won't do it." Li Wen refused righteously.
He thought that the vacation would be over in a few days, and he wanted to go see how his sister was doing over there and whether anyone was bullying her. It would only take about two hours to drive there, so he would wait until he saw his leader trying to flatter him to see if he could lend him the car.
Li Wen is now a squad leader in the army, and his immediate superior thinks highly of him, so he will probably give him this little face. If that doesn't work, he'll ask his sister to make him some meat sauce as a bribe for his mouth, haha.
Li Meng doesn’t know that her elder brother is coming to see her and is currently paying the money and signing the documents to buy a house!
Li Meng smiled brightly when she got the house deed, as if she saw a pile of gold waving at her.
