Chapter 90 On The Road

Mrs. Jiang was a little hesitant. After all, if she didn't go by herself, she was afraid that her daughter would not get used to it by herself. She hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Let me discuss it with my husband, it's not a trivial matter."

When Li Yan came back in the evening, Mrs. Jiang talked about it with him.

"I've thought about this a long time ago. Marriage is the top priority. Since you, a sister, can't be there, my brother-in-law will naturally go. Let me take Meimeier and Shanqing with me." , you don’t have to worry.” Li Yan already had a plan in mind, and now he told Jiang.

"Where is the ethnology?" Jiang still asked hesitantly because she was afraid of delaying her husband's teaching in the ethnology.

"It's okay to take a few days off. I'm not the only one in the ethnology." Li Yan replied indifferently.

"You've been away for a few days, and my mother may be worried." Jiang said tactfully, she was actually more worried about Mrs. Li's side. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has eased a little recently, and she doesn't want to have any suspicions .

"This is a big matter of words, and my mother can understand it. My mother is a bit more talkative, but she is actually very reasonable." Li Yan felt that he could handle his old lady, so he comforted Jiang.

Although Mrs. Li didn't want her son to be away for so long, Jiang Yanzhi's marriage was a big deal, and after being persuaded by Li Yan, she reluctantly agreed.They also packed up a congratulatory gift for Li Yan to take to Jiang's house to congratulate Jiang Yanzhi on his wedding.Mrs. Jiang has thickened it a lot, which can be regarded as a very decent congratulatory gift.

Li Meier knew that she was able to go to the countryside, and she was very happy. She was smiling throughout the Mid-Autumn Festival, and she even sweetened her mouth to Mrs. Li, and said that she would bring some specialties from the country to her grandmother.

"Grandmother, I heard from my uncle that the vegetables and fruits in the countryside are all retting with farm manure, which is very sweet. There are also some small fish and shrimps that grow in the stream, and the meat is also very sweet. Wait for me I'll bring you some back, and when the time comes to stew soup with mutton, your old eyebrows will definitely fall off." Li Meier chattered non-stop in front of Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li kept a straight face, her expression was very disdainful, and she curled her lips and said: "How delicious are the broken fish and rotten shrimps in the ditches in the countryside, so don't tell me that you will treat me to a big meal, you just know how to take these. Useless things to fool my old man."

"Grandmother, you don't understand now. It's called pure natural and pollution-free, and it's much more nutritious than what we usually eat." She heard Jiang Shanqing say this, and she thought it was good, so she used it.

"It's not polluting, it's not polluting if it's retting with big manure. If you want to eat it yourself, I don't mind it." Mrs. Li looked disgusted.

Li Mei'er felt that her grandmother really didn't know good people, hmph, she wasn't willing to take her with her!

"You went to your grandparent's house, remember to behave, don't get into trouble again and embarrass me, and remember not to patronize and bury your head in eating when eating, as if you haven't eaten in eight lifetimes, others think I'm abusing you at home What about you." Mrs. Li felt that she really broke her heart and blamed this careless girl.

"Grandmother, I'm going to attend my uncle's wedding, so why don't you let me have enough food?" Li Meier was dissatisfied, thinking that her grandmother was too strict with her.

"Isn't this telling you to be more reserved in front of others? If you are obedient, I'll buy you fresh meat mooncakes when you come back. Didn't you keep talking about fresh meat mooncakes for the past few days?" Mrs. Li spent all her money, intimidating and luring Go together.

Did Mrs. Li say that she would take the initiative to buy her some snacks? Li Meier was a little flattered, thinking that her grandmother would not be able to see her when she was in the country anyway, so she readily agreed, "I see, grandma, you can't break your promise, I'll wait until I come back to eat." moon cake."

Mrs. Li agreed sullenly, feeling that the girl's film is too difficult to deal with, and she always stares at her old man's money bag.

On the fourth day of September, Li Meier and the others set off one day earlier. Before dawn in the morning, Li Yan drove the ox cart to Meilong Village, Jiang's hometown.

Meilong Village is actually not too far from Zhangshui Town. It takes about an hour to drive an ox cart. Li Yan and the others set off early, and they probably will arrive before noon.

It was the first time in Li Mei'er's life that she traveled far away, she was so excited, she sat in the back of the bullock cart without resting for a moment, she felt strange no matter what she saw, she pulled Jiang Shanqing and talked non-stop.

Jiang Shanqing was so annoyed by her that she wished she could close her ears by herself, so she had to pretend to be asleep in the end to escape the torture of Li Meier, the starling.

Jiang Shanqing refused to speak to her, so Li Meier had no choice but to harass her father.

Li Yan was also happy to go out alone with his daughter on a rare occasion. He listened patiently to her daughter's chatter, and even responded to it from time to time.But he still needs to drive, and it's not a good thing to do two things at once. After almost driving the ox cart into a ditch, Jiang Shanqing dragged Li Meier back with lingering fear, and told her to sit in peace and stop harassing the driver.This is fatal.

"Aren't you thirsty or tired after talking for so long?" Jiang Shanqing looked at her with a dark face and asked.

Jiang Shanqing didn't say that she hadn't remembered yet, she smiled and took out the snacks and honey water that Mrs. Jiang had prepared for her earlier in the morning, and gave Jiang Shanqing a piece of mung bean cake.

"Brother Shanqing, you eat too."

"I'm not hungry, you can eat by yourself." Jiang Shanqing was not hungry, and just wanted to stuff Li Meier's mouth with snacks.

Li Meier didn't force her, she ate some snacks on her own, and she burped in satisfaction after finishing a pack of mung bean cakes.

"Father, how long will it be?" Jiang Shanqing didn't talk to her, Li Meier felt a little bored, and asked Li Yan in front again.

"About another half an hour. If Mei Meier is tired, just lie down and sleep for a while, and it will be almost there when she wakes up." Li Yan replied in front.

When Li Meier heard that it was still so long, she was a little annoyed. She writhed on the bullock cart until Jiang Shan's blue eyes were dazzled. She grabbed her impatiently and asked, "What are you doing? You can't just sit quietly for a while." .”

Li Meier looked troubled, lowered her voice and said to Jiang Shanqing: "My stomach hurts and I want to take a shit."

I don't know if it's because she ate too many pastries. Li Mei'er felt her stomach was churning, and she couldn't help it.

Jiang Shanqing also frowned, and asked in a low voice: "Can you bear it, it should be here soon."

"No, I'm coming out!" Li Meier became more and more restless.

Jiang Shanqing sighed helplessly, and shouted to Li Yan in front: "Uncle, I want to go to the toilet."

Hearing what he said, Li Yan stopped the ox cart, turned his head and said to him, "Then uncle, take you there. There is no hut here, so let's settle it in the grass."

"Father, I'll go with Brother Shanqing, I want to go to the bathroom too." When Li Meier said this, her cheeks were slightly red, thinking that she is also a girl of fifteen or sixteen, and now she is going to go to the bathroom in broad daylight. Going to the toilet is really embarrassing.
