The Chronicle of the Great Sage of Haoyu

Chapter 118 The first meeting with the old man of the Meng family

"Your grandpa has gone downstairs, why don't you all hurry up and meet him?" Meng Xianghong came to the room where Man Hao and the others were staying, and happened to hear Tang Yanran and Jiang Hanbing's self-introduction, which was about to be tense.

Meng Xianghong looked at Man Hao who looked embarrassed and at a loss, shook his head and nodded again.

He shook his head because the private lives of many young people in the surrounding families were not too serious. In such a situation, they would naturally deal with it freely, and Man Hao was obviously not very good at dealing with it.

The nodding was precisely because of Man Hao's bewildered appearance, which made Meng Xianghong recognize Man Hao's character.

It seems that Man Hao has not disrespected women like other children of the younger generation these years, and it is also the Meng family's requirement for the children to be able to take relationships seriously.

The tense atmosphere in the small living room eased a lot with Meng Xianghong's words, and the young men of the Meng family couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Sister Bing's combat effectiveness is a nightmare for the younger generation of the Meng family. Except for Meng Aimin who is one year older than Jiang Hanbing, everyone else has been beaten by Jiang Hanbing since childhood.

Moreover, there is no place to justify being beaten. When I go home and cry, my parents will dismiss me lightly with the phrase "the elder sister-in-law is like a mother".

While the young men of the Meng family breathed a sigh of relief, they couldn't help but quietly glanced at Jiang Hanbing.

At this time, Jiang Hanbing smiled and greeted Meng Xianghong sweetly, with a gentle and virtuous appearance.

Everyone was surprised and looked at Tang Yanran at the same time, seeing that Tang Yanran was also full of spring breeze and called "Sister-in-law" sweetly.

What everyone didn't know was that Tang Yanran had already met Meng Xianghong when Man Hao's adoptive mother Liu Xiuhui was in the hospital.

Moreover, Tang Yanran took good care of Liu Xiuhui, and later when Liu Xiuhui passed away, Man Hao was sad and unconscious, Tang Yanran was busy back and forth.

At that time, Tang Yanran's meticulousness and gentleness left a deep impression on Meng Xianghong's heart.

They are all good girls, and Meng Xianghong couldn't help feeling worried.

After hearing Meng Xianghong's greeting, the young men of the Meng family also got up one after another.Everyone rushed to the largest living room in the small building.

At this time, Man Hao also breathed a sigh of relief.In his heart, he was naturally closer to Tang Yanran, after all, the two spent more time together than Jiang Hanbing.

Moreover, Tang Yanran has always treated Man Hao with affection and righteousness.From pretending to be a girlfriend to make Liu Xiuhui happy, to visiting and taking care of Liu Xiuhui many times in the hospital, and then to worrying about Man Hao's mental state and dragging him to Xijing, all the way is tender and sweet.

Of course, what Man Hao didn't know was that Tang Yanran even sold the relics left by her grandma to barely raise enough money to buy expensive old wild ginseng for Liu Xiuhui.

It's a pity that her manpower was exhausted, Liu Xiuhui was still unable to overcome the illness after all, and her soul returned to the underworld.

The contact between Man Hao and Jiang Hanbing has never been so pleasant, but Man Hao understands the importance of promises and contracts.Therefore, Man Hao couldn't deal with the marriage contract that the family said casually.

As the crowd walked out, Man Hao looked at Tang Yanran with an embarrassed expression, and saw that she was still looking at him with a smile, as if she was not angry or sad at all.

With some determination in his mind, Man Hao glanced at Jiang Hanbing's pretty face again from the corner of his eye.Seeing her also had a smile on her face.

For a moment, Man Hao was a little confused and didn't understand. Is the city between the two of them so deep?How can you not be angry?Man Hao asked himself that if it was him, he wouldn't be able to be so leisurely.

While thinking about it, I heard Meng Xianghong's voice urging again, "Xiao Hao, what are you dawdling about? Your grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time, so don't hurry up."

"Then what, I, sister-in-law, I'll go right away." Man Hao quickly followed the crowd and walked out.

Meng Xianghong looked at Tang Yanran and Jiang Hanbing, their lips moved, but after all, they didn't say anything, and gestured to them to keep up, then turned and walked away slowly.

This is an extremely simple living room with an area of ​​about 25 square meters. There are two single sofas by the window and a table with teacups in the middle.

One of the single sofas is empty, and the old man of the Meng family is sitting on the other sofa.

The left and right hands of the sofa are two three-seater sofas in two rows, and it doesn't look crowded when a room full of people sit on it.

Seeing Man Hao's arrival, Meng Xiangwei waved to him: "Patriotic, come and meet your grandpa."

Man Hao raised his head to look at old man Meng, with a slight resemblance between himself and the old man.This is the old man I have seen many times on TV.I never dreamed that this respectable old man was actually my own grandfather.

Perhaps it was the effect of blood and family affection, Man Hao cried out with a sour nose: "Grandpa."

Once Grandpa called out, he could no longer make a sound.Old Man Meng looked at Man Hao softly, and said, "Son, come over a few steps and let Grandpa see you."

Man Hao stepped forward and stood one meter in front of Mr. Meng.

Old Man Meng was so happy that he raised his arm to pat Man Hao's shoulder, but he forgot that his right hand was inconvenient, so he gasped in pain for a moment.

Seeing old man Meng like this, Meng Xiangwei worriedly called out "Dad."

Old Man Meng waved his hand, keeping his eyes on Man Hao's face, raised his left hand and pointed to the single sofa beside him and said, "Sit down!"

Man Hao looked around and found that everyone in the room looked as usual, so he sat down as promised.

"Son, how did you come here all these years? Tell grandpa about it." The old man felt infinite love in his eyes.

Man Hao chose some important events from the time he could remember to tell Mr. Meng.

Old Man Meng listened very patiently, and when he encountered something that Man Hao had skipped, he interrupted on purpose to let Man Hao speak in detail.

This surprised many young people in the room, because they had never had the opportunity to talk to grandpa so much at once since they were young.

The grumpy old man they had imagined had completely degenerated into an old man doing morning exercises in the park.

Mr. Meng has always had a nickname - "Tiger Meng". One means that he is brave and takes the lead in battle, the other means that he is brave and reckless, and the third means that he has a hot temper and loves to lose his temper.

At this time, Master Meng chatted with Man Hao and the two of them about the boring daily life, but he didn't show any "tiger" temperament.

Hearing Man Hao talking about the care taken by the Man family and the Liu family, Mr. Meng said: "Patriotic, you can bring them to your house when you have time, and relatives should move around more."

Man Hao nodded, it should be, in his opinion, it is only right and proper.

But it was a big surprise to hear this in the ears of other people. What is the identity of the old man of the Meng family?How could you be willing to recognize this unrelated relative?
What everyone doesn't know is that Mr. Meng's move is of course out of his love for Man Hao, Ai Wu and Wu, and also thanks to these people for taking care of Man Hao for many years.

For this grandson who was lost and found again, old man Meng is naturally in pain to the bone. Every time Man Hao said a word, he nodded with a smile.

It seems that this kid is not talking about homework, but doing a cultural performance, no matter what the content of what he said, I just love to listen anyway.

The second generation of the Meng family is fine, but the third generation of the Meng family feels that they can hardly sit still.

Therefore, a strange scene appeared in the huge living room: the old and the young were chatting happily on the two single sofas, while the people sitting below were clearly bored, but they had to show a look of interest and enjoyment demeanor.

At this time, Wang Huimin, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Meng family, and the third daughter-in-law walked in wearing aprons.

Seeing Jiang Hanbing standing at the door, Wang Huimin whispered, "Hanbing, why don't you go in and sit down."

As she spoke, she smiled and took Jiang Hanbing's hand. Although Wang Huimin didn't know Tang Yanran, she also said, "Girl, come in and sit down too."

"Dad, the dishes are almost ready, and the meal will be ready in 10 minutes." Wang Huimin said to Mr. Meng.

"Minhui, your son is back, you can sit down. You can just ask the chef to fix it." Old Man Meng was very interested, and he knew that Wang Huimin also wanted to spend more time with the child.

Meng Xiangzheng winked at his wife, and Wang Wei immediately said, "Sister-in-law, please rest for a while, I'll just keep an eye on the kitchen."

Wang Wei is the third daughter-in-law in the family and works as a deputy director of the Ministry of Construction.At home, she is extremely virtuous, and Mr. Meng is also very satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

Sure enough, old man Meng nodded to Wang Wei in satisfaction, and gave some careful instructions.

Seeing that Wang Huimin was left behind, the children in the family got up to give up a sofa, so Wang Huimin pulled Jiang Hanbing and Tang Yanran to sit down.

"Patriotic, this is Jiang Hanbing, the granddaughter of your grandfather's old comrade-in-arms. Let's get to know each other." Wang Huimin said with a smile.

Old Man Meng also said happily: "You young people can get in touch with each other more, and you can improve your understanding."

As he was speaking, Old Man Meng's gaze swept over Tang Yanran's face, and seeing Tang Yanran's smiling face from entering the room to sitting down, he couldn't help but secretly added a lot of points to Tang Yanran.

Before old man Meng heard that Aiguo had brought his girlfriend here, and he was worried that if the two girls had a quarrel, it would be difficult to deal with it.

Seeing Tang Yanran's generosity now, and even pointing out her own words to let Aiguo and Jiang Hanbing get in touch more, Tang Yanran has a smile on her pretty face.

Mr. Meng admired Tang Yanran's indifferent temperament and good family education in his heart, and knew that Tang Yanran should not come from ordinary people in the market.

"Grandpa, I've known Brother Aiguo before." Jiang Hanbing deliberately pointed out that he and Man Hao had known each other for a long time, and at the same time deliberately omitted the word "Mongolian" in front of "Grandpa".

Missing the word "Mongolian" is quite learned. Before Jiang Hanbing came to Meng's house, she always called Grandpa Meng, so her identity is the granddaughter of Grandpa Meng's comrade-in-arms.

Today, he directly called Grandpa, which shows that Jiang Hanbing is also willing to admit his relationship with Meng Aiguo in his heart, and then expects to put this relationship on the table.

Old man Meng has seen all kinds of people in his life, and he can see Jiang Hanbing's carefulness at a glance.

It was also because he wanted to think about Tang Yanran, so he asked with great interest: "Oh, the child Aiguo didn't tell me just now, girl Bing, tell me how you two met."
