The next day.
Tiancun ushered in a hot weather.
You can feel the heat just by standing outside the door. The cute big dog is lying in the living room with its tongue hanging out because of the heat, and the chickens and ducks in the yard are all hiding in the shade and no longer clucking.
The only sounds in the yard were the hot sky and the occasional chirping of cicadas.
Meng Manxing didn't like getting up early, and Meng's mother and her husband didn't intend to disturb the two young people, so they didn't call them for breakfast.
Meng Manxing slept until 11 o'clock in the morning. He looked at his trousers and shorts in the room, hesitated for a long time, and then looked at the dazzling sunlight outside the window.
Finally decided to wear shorts.
Although she always showed that she disliked Ji Jialin, this was her home, and after all, she and Ji Jialin were friends.
He wouldn't say anything at school, would he?
Meng Manxing thought it through and changed her clothes. She looked at her short-sleeved shirt in the mirror and made sure that nothing was exposed before she opened the door.
Although she had made up her mind to dress like this, she still looked left and right at the corridor with a guilty conscience after opening the door.
"What are you doing?"
"Ah! Ji Jialin, you scared me to death!"
Meng Manxing was still wondering if Ji Jialin was around when she suddenly heard a voice beside her.
The whole person trembled with fear.
"I'm hungry."
Ji Jialin didn't expect to scare Meng Manxing, but that wasn't the point. The point was that he was hungry.
Meng Manxing felt a little less nervous as she watched Ji Jialin walk towards the living room with an unchanged expression.
"My mom has hot food in the kitchen. If you're hungry, you can go get it from the kitchen, or wait for me to wash my face."
After she said that, she quickly ran to the bathroom.
Ji Jialin walked into the living room and sat down on the sofa without hesitation, eating fruit and teasing the big dog that was cooling off nearby.
Although there is no air conditioning here, there are electric fans.
He looked very relaxed while enjoying the breeze and eating fruit.
When Meng Manxing came over, what he saw was a picture of a noble young man.
Strange?
Ji Jialin has such a bad personality, but when he doesn't speak, he looks like a real human being.
Although he was dressed in hip-hop style, wore earrings, and had fluffy hair that occasionally covered his eyes, when he didn't speak and only looked at his face, one couldn't help but think that he was a good kid.
Could this be the legendary beauty equals justice?
Meng Manxing touched his chin and thought to himself, ignoring the other party's mischievous behavior of teasing the dog, and went to the kitchen to carry the vegetables.
In the morning, her mother would go to the vegetable garden to water the vegetables, and her grandmother would usually listen to opera in the house.
At the dinner table.
Meng Manxing couldn't help but secretly glance at Ji Jialin a few times.
Although these dishes were not bad, they were all leftovers from yesterday. However, Ji Jialin ate them with gusto and did not change his expression.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Ji Jialin really couldn't stand someone staring at him frequently while he was eating. After enduring for a while, seeing that Meng Manxing was still not giving up, he simply looked back.
Meng Manxing, who was successfully caught, was not as nervous as the first time. He took a bite of the food calmly before speaking.
"Ji Jialin didn't expect you to be so rich and adaptable."
Thanks to Liang Chan, she often saw Liang Chan and several other girls showing disdain in front of her at school.
"Even though you say that, don't be obsessed with me."
Ji Jialin said as he picked up another peanut.
People around him only knew that he was rich, but they didn't know that his father was a rough man. When he was a child, he was afraid that his father would be kidnapped, so he was so cruel as to send him to a retired soldier for training. At that time, what he ate was much worse than what he eats now.
"Ji Jialin, has anyone ever told you that you're too narcissistic?"
"Yeah...you."
When Meng Manxing was stunned, Ji Jialin smiled and said the last word.
Damn! He didn't play by the rules again, forcing Meng Manxing to swallow the words he wanted to say in response.
She stopped talking and watched Ji Jialin finish his meal. She angrily took the dishes into the kitchen and washed them.
A few minutes later, Meng's mother came back carrying a hoe.
"Xingxing, Xiaoji, have you eaten yet?"
Although she was asking the two of them, she was looking at Ji Jialin.
Meng Manxing on the side said that she had no love anymore.
"I've eaten, Auntie. If you haven't had lunch yet, go and have some."
Ji Jialin still did a good job of pretending, and answered with a smile without showing any annoyance at this moment.
"Hey Xiaoji, there's watermelon in Xingxing's refrigerator, cut some out."
Mother Meng looked at the polite Ji Jialin and nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Meng Manxing who was sitting beside her rubbing the dog and gave him some instructions.
"I know, Mom."
Meng Manxing treated Da Huang as Ji Jialin, pinched his face hard, and went to the kitchen.
Mother Meng went to the corner of the yard to put away the farm tools, and then went to the kitchen.
"Mom, there's no rush to use the money now. Don't overwork yourself."
"Got it. Let's go to the living room and talk to Xiao Ji. It's awkward to stay outside alone."
Mother Meng nodded and urged Meng Manxing to go out.
"By the way, get some for your grandma."
"knew."
Meng Manxing quickly put the watermelon on the plate.
When Meng's mother divorced, she got half of the property, and since she took care of the children, she got a lot of money.
In the past few years, they have been able to make ends meet by living frugally. In addition, when Meng Manxing grew up, she often came home with scholarships. She later quit her job and started growing vegetables and raising livestock near her home to take care of her elderly grandmother Meng.
The person she felt most sorry for in her life was her mother. When she found out that her husband was scared, she was stunned and didn't know what to do.
It was her mother who handled everything, took care of her and one-year-old Meng Manxing, and helped her get over her grief for a while.
She dared to tell Dad Meng at the time because she thought Grandma Meng and Grandpa Meng had been in love all their lives, and she did not leave Grandma Meng even after knowing the truth.
But... maybe God couldn't bear to see Grandma Meng and her family being too happy, so he took Grandpa Meng's life early.
From then on, Grandma Meng would use Grandpa Meng's radio to listen to opera whenever she had nothing to do.
Meng Manxing knocked on the door gently and handed the watermelon over. Then she returned to the living room with another plate of watermelon and lay down on the sofa to eat the watermelon.
Ji Jialin looked at Meng Manxing lying on the sofa, ate a few pieces of fruit and leaned back on the sofa.
It is so hot in Tamura today that you can feel the heat just by staying in the house.
After the watermelon on the table was almost finished, the little tiger next door came around the yard and ran in excitedly carrying a red bucket.
"Sister Manxing, Big Brother! How about we go to the river to catch some fish?"
He looked at Meng Manxing excitedly with his big grape-like eyes.
Her cheeks are as red as apples from running, and she looks very cute.
"It's too hot to go."
Meng Manxing didn't want to move at this moment, so he refused without thinking.
Seeing Meng Manxing like this, Xiaohu looked at Ji Jialin with a pitiful face.
"Big brother, please persuade Sister Manxing! It would be fun to go fishing in the river on such a hot day."
Ji Jialin looked at Meng Manxing who was biting the watermelon without raising her head, and spoke with malicious intent.
"Junior, it's a rare occasion for me to come to your house, and you won't even take me for a walk?"
Meng Manxing looked up in disbelief when he heard this.
That’s right! She almost forgot that Ji Jialin is a ruthless scoundrel!!!
You have no good intention in calling her that!
