"Here I come, Mom!"
Meng Manxing responded by saying something to Ji Jialin and quickly rushed into the kitchen.
"Senior, please stay here for a while. I'll go serve the food."
Ji Jialin looked at the impetuous Meng Manxing and relaxed his body leaning against the sofa behind him.
It seems that I came at the right time for this meal. There are some interesting people around Meng Manxing?
Neither of them was aware of the deeper meaning behind this little episode.
A few minutes later, they sat down at the small table in the middle of the living room.
"Xiao Ji, pick up whatever you want to eat."
"Yes, Ji Jialin, although these are some home-cooked dishes, my mother is a very good cook. I guarantee that you will fall in love with them after trying them once."
Meng Manxing smiled and responded when he heard this.
"You are just good at talking. Take it to your grandma."
As Meng's mother spoke, she picked up a bowl of food and handed it to Meng Manxing.
Because Grandma Meng was not feeling well and was blind, she basically ate her meals alone in the house.
Of course, Grandma Meng usually walks in the yard to bask in the sun, but this morning she said she was not feeling well, so she didn't sit in the living room.
"good."
She didn't object and took it to Grandma Meng's bedroom.
She had just arrived intending to visit her grandmother, but her mother said her grandmother was sleeping, so she didn't disturb her. Now she could go in and chat for a while.
"Grandma, it's time to eat."
She walked in and looked at Grandma Meng who was sitting in a rocking chair facing the window listening to opera, and whispered.
"Yeah, stars."
Grandma Meng turned off the radio and walked to the table beside her.
She looked at Grandma Meng, who was in a good mood, and asked softly while helping her put things in order.
"Grandma, why did you touch Ji Jialin just now?"
"Didn't grandma say that she couldn't see clearly so she had to touch it."
Grandma Meng answered as a matter of course, not knowing whether to tell the truth.
“Oh~”
She nodded in response, but still felt strange.
"Okay, my dear granddaughter, you still remember to come back to see your grandma. Go eat first and don't disturb me."
Meng Manxing was still feeling guilty about her previous decision, but after hearing what she heard next, she felt a bit amused and helpless.
"Okay, okay, I won't disturb grandma's meal for now. I'll collect the dishes later."
She said this and left the room quietly.
The dining table in the living room.
Meng's mother was a talkative person. She kept chatting with Ji Jialin during the meal. After a while, she asked about his date of birth, year of birth, zodiac sign, major, etc.
If Meng Manxing hadn't come out, Meng's mother would have planned to ask about Ji Jialin's situation from kindergarten to now.
"Mom, don't just chat and not eat."
Meng Manxing came out and looked at the dishes which were basically unchanged, and frowned to remind him.
She saw her mother talking for a long time, but she didn't know what they were talking about.
"Haha, I'm just worried that Xiaoji will be nervous. Doesn't every expert say that talking more helps relieve tension?"
"Alright, let's eat. The food is getting cold. Xiaoji, hurry up and grab some more."
Meng's mother stared at Meng Manxing's gaze and smiled awkwardly without saying anything.
"Yes, auntie."
Ji Jialin nodded. He didn't expect Meng Manxing's mother to talk so much. Fortunately, she only asked about trivial matters.
Otherwise, he really wasn't sure whether he would leave on the spot.
After Meng Manxing came back, the three of them ate much faster, and soon they had almost finished.
"Xingxing, Xiaoji, you two can watch TV in the living room. I don't need any help here."
Mother Meng said this and quickly put the dishes away in the kitchen.
Meng Manxing didn't grab it either. After seeing her mother come in, she apologized to Ji Jialin.
"Senior, I'm sorry, my mother talks a lot, but she doesn't mean anything else."
"Well, didn't we say we could call each other by name?"
Ji Jialin was originally in a normal mood, but after seeing Meng Manxing like this, he miraculously became happy.
Haha~ Of course, that’s to make me appear harmless.
Meng Manxing looked at Ji Jialin teasing her again, the corners of her mouth twitched and she started to complain wildly in her heart.
"That's not the case with senior. I'm not afraid of being too embarrassed in front of my elders. In private, I'm still happy to call you senior."
"Well, I'm a little tired today, so I'll take a rest first."
Ji Jialin looked at Meng Manxing who was frustrated again and felt like it was a daily task.
He stood up, stretched lazily and walked towards the bedroom. Halfway there, he suddenly turned his head to look at Meng Manxing who was still sitting on the sofa.
"By the way, do you have any extra toiletries?"
"I'll get it for the senior."
Meng Manxing looked at Ji Jialin, who looked like he wanted a beating, and felt that she and he were in conflict.
Fortunately, nothing happened to Ji Jialin afterwards. He washed up and went to the bedroom and never came out again.
Meng Manxing was a little tired after a day's journey. She waited for Ji Jialin to finish showering and then took her clothes and went to the bathroom in the corridor to shower.
Because there are few people in their house, there are only toilets in her grandmother's room and the corridor.
After taking a shower, she occupied Ji Jialin's place and didn't come out. She was wearing cool shorts and a short-sleeved shirt.
It is summer in Lingcheng now and it is extremely hot, and it is even hotter in their small village hidden in the mountains.
Meng Manxing felt much better after taking a shower. She wiped her hair with a towel and went to her grandmother's room to chat with the old lady for a while.
Grandma Meng first asked Meng Manxing about her recent life at school, and as they were chatting, the topic suddenly turned to Ji Jialin.
"Xingxing, grandma is very optimistic about Xiaoji, you must seize the opportunity."
Grandma Meng took Meng Manxing's hand and patted it.
"Oh, grandma, why are you talking about him all of a sudden? There's no chance for him and me. He's very popular in school and has had many girlfriends. I won't date a guy like that."
When Meng Manxing heard her grandmother say this, she hurriedly denied it, fearing that her mother-in-law would misunderstand that there was something going on between her and Ji Jialin.
"Xingxing, you can't judge a person by their appearance. Grandma can see that he is a good child."
Grandma Meng said with a smile.
"Grandma, you just saw what was inside him?"
"Of course, I didn't touch his facial features just now."
"...Grandma, can you also read bone images?"
Meng Manxing didn't expect that her grandmother had such a sense of humor.
"There's so much you don't know. Go and get some rest. My star is exhausted after this day."
Grandma Meng pinched Meng Manxing's cheek and waved her hand to send them away.
"Okay, goodnight, Grandma."
Seeing that her grandmother looked tired, Meng Manxing nodded obediently and left quickly.
Grandma Meng didn't say anything, but just looked at Meng Manxing's back as he left, a little absent-minded, with an indelible worry in her eyes.
Now the stars are becoming more and more beautiful and I don’t know whether it is good or bad.
Meng Manxing perfectly combines the looks of her mother and her father. She is graceful and elegant, and has excellent academic performance. The threshold of the Meng family is almost broken down by matchmakers proposing marriage.
Fortunately, they moved here from the city, so they wouldn't arrange a marriage for Meng Manxing so early.
The angel faction only knew the Meng family, and they didn't know what Xingxing's future would be.
Grandma Meng thought of the emotional pain her daughter had suffered and sighed worriedly.
This identity ultimately prevents children from finding love.
