Seventy cannon fodder is a ruthless man

Chapter 184 is here
Meng Changshou also gave Meng Tao a red seal of five yuan. According to Geng Liuju's slamming force, the old man might have borrowed the five yuan from some house.

Meng Tao said: "It's good if you can come, no need for red envelopes."

Meng Changshou said with a straight face: "What should be given to you, I will give it to you, take it!"

Meng Tao also accepted it, stuffed it into the satchel he was carrying, and took out a red apple from the bag and handed it to Meng Jinshan: "Are you hungry? It's not time for dinner yet, let's eat an apple first." "

Meng Jinshan happily took it. The last time he came, Sister Taohua also gave him a big red apple. It was sweet and crisp, but it was delicious. He kept thinking about it.

Meng Changshou was in charge of Meng Jinshan: "When I first came to Jinniu, I asked someone to cook noodles to eat. How can I be so hungry? I'll keep it here and put it in your hands. It should be eaten up in a while. Mice can't keep food overnight. !"

Meng Tao took out another bag of cake, tore open the mouth of the plastic bag, and stuffed it to Meng Changshou, to see if he could gag him.

This is a product from the county food factory. I bought a lot at the store just now. Meng Tao and Zhou Cuiling opened a pack and tasted it. They thought it tasted good. The dim sum made by the food factory in this day and age did not have too many additives, and the quality was not bad, so they secretly collected it. A few packs went into the space and were intended to be eaten by the Taurus.

Meng Changshou began to be reluctant to eat such beautiful dim sum, which looked like golden eggs. They must be very expensive. He wanted to put them away, but the smell was too sweet. He had never tasted them before, so he picked up a cake and tasted it. After tasting it, I ate three in a row, and I didn't care about Jinshan.

Under Meng Tao's signal, Meng Jinshan slipped out holding his red apple.

Meng Zhehan and Zhang Guoqing came back from the car and saw Meng Changshou. They didn't know who it was. Meng Tao told him that this was the elder brother of Grandpa Meng Shengli. This elder brother helped, and his surname is also Meng, so he recognized his god-in-law."

Meng Changshou responded with an "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhss.

Meng Zhehan put down the things in his hands, and formally bowed to Meng Changshou as a junior, saying hello to grandpa.

Meng Changshou was flattered and at a loss. Meng Zhehan stepped forward to help him sit down. He also sat on another chair and talked with Meng Changshou modestly and politely. Meng Changshou quickly returned to normal. People are so kind, sensible, courteous, and approachable, not like that girl Taohua, who only knows how to fight in the nest, this is the attitude of the younger generation to the elders.

Meng Changshou saw Zhang Guoqing and Wang Tiegen enter the kitchen carrying two heavy sacks, and asked what those were?
Meng Zhehan told him: "It's Chinese cabbage, potatoes, and some meat. The commune's non-staple food store has too little stock and it's not fresh enough. We go to the county fruit and vegetable company to buy them. We will hold banquets and prepare more dishes."

Meng Changshou stared: "It's just an engagement. The two adults can meet and set up a table with two tables. Why buy so much? How much will it cost?"

"There are a lot of people from the man's house, we have to entertain them. There are also old friends of Grandpa Meng Shengli coming too,"

"Oh, girl Peach Blossom didn't say it earlier, it won't work without an adult around... how can the man do what he says? We have the final say on the engagement in our house, and we shouldn't let too many people come... Here, is it free to eat and drink?”

"It's okay, grandpa, it won't cost much, we can afford it."

"Oh, you children, you don't spend money like this."

Meng Changshou pointed to the two big bags brought in by Meng Zhehan just now: "What are these?"

Meng Zhehan: "For the man's house, such as fabrics, clothes, candy, etc., the man will come today to give gifts and hire people. We have to prepare some gifts in return."

As he spoke, Meng Zhehan untied his pockets and asked Meng Changshou to check everything.

Meng Changshou felt distressed again: A bunch of silly kids, they don't know how much dowry the man will give, so they prepare to return the gift first, and even buy so much, it really won't work without the old man watching!

Meng Tao didn't know what the two were talking about in the main room, she went into the kitchen to get busy.

After Meng Zhehan came, Zhang Guoqing stayed by his teacher's side, while Zhou Cuiling followed her fiancé closely and stayed in the Meng's courtyard, helping Meng Tao to work together.

At six o'clock, Shen Yu and Liu Yongsheng hadn't arrived yet. Captain Bao and Zhou Shi'an came to visit twice. Meng Tao said that he didn't come at this time, and he might arrive tomorrow. Maybe Shen Yu brought Grandpa Xu and Xu Grandma was going to rest in Mengzhou, and Liu Yongsheng and his party passed through Jiangping City, and they might also stay at Liu Jianxin's place for one night.

With that said, everyone was not in a hurry, and waited until after eight o'clock, making sure that the guests would not come today, and went to rest separately.

At around ten o'clock the next morning, Shen Yu and his son arrived at Linshui Village with Grandpa Xu, Grandma Xu, Uncle Xu, and Aunt Xu.

They drove two jeeps into the village, and two other cars, as well as the entourage of Grandpa Xu and Uncle Xu, stayed in the commune and stayed in the commune hotel at night, and did not follow into Linshui Village.

Meng Tao, Meng Zhehan, Meng Changshou, Captain Bao, Zhou Shian and others went to the parking place to greet them.

Seeing Meng Tao for the first time, Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu couldn't help being surprised even though they had heard Shen Yu say it beforehand: they all knew the late old lady Meng, and Meng Tao's appearance was really very similar to that of the young old lady Meng. picture.

Shen Heping almost didn't recognize Meng Tao, and felt that the girl had changed too much. When he saw her in Qianjin Steel Factory, she was black and thin, and she looked so small. It's been a long time since I saw her, and she suddenly became white and tender. , It seems to have grown taller after gaining weight, it's like a different person.

Grandma Xu's eyes were red, and she hugged Meng Tao into her arms. The baby shouted like a grandson. Meng Tao's nose was sore, and tears almost fell down. She missed her grandma in her previous life, that's what grandma called her.

Shen Yu looked at Meng Tao who was about to cry, and felt very distressed. The eldest aunt came forward to hug Grandma Xu and Meng Tao and said, "I'm also here to have a kiss with my dear grandson!"Made everyone around me laugh.

Meng Changshou and Meng Zhehan received Grandpa Xu, Uncle Xu, and Shen Heping, and politely called "in-laws" and asked them to come in quickly. Although the "in-laws" came in a car, it seemed that the family conditions were good. He was still an official in the city, but with Meng Zhehan by his side, just like Uncle Xu and Shen Heping followed by Grandpa Xu, Meng Changshou was inexplicably confident and no longer stage frightened.

Grandpa Xu looked at Meng Zhehan and nodded secretly: As expected of being the eldest grandson of Meng Laohu, it's rare to be so thoughtful.

Everyone sat down and drank tea for a while, and when they were about to have lunch, Liu Yongsheng and his party also came.

Liu Yongsheng, his wife Han Shuying, the youngest son Liu Jianli, the eldest son Liu Jianxin, the eldest daughter-in-law Sun Hong and grandson Mingming; the mother and son Wang Cuixi and Xu Yuting of the Xu family, a total of eight people drove a medium-sized van and got off at the bridge. The van couldn't cross the small soil bridge, so I turned back to the commune hotel to wait.

At this point, all the people who should arrive have arrived, and the courtyard of the Meng family is full of guests and friends, and it has never been more festive and lively.
