Chapter 236: Visit Guo Huan
Chapter 236 Visiting Guo Huan
Yesterday was the day to trade grain with the non-staple food factory. Shen Meng put all the grain he needed in the house owned by the landlord Lao Cai early in the morning. Only Yu Xueli could open the lock on the door. The one who followed him for the first transaction was Kong Wenhui.
When Yu Xueli was going in to check the food, she was counting the money on the side. There was such a big package, and her hands kept shaking while she was counting, and she was very scared.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly. After she checked that there was nothing wrong with the money, she confirmed with Kong Wenhui that there was no problem with the food, and then she hurriedly left with the money.
Worried that someone was following her, she passed through several alleys and turned into a courtyard. After staying for a long time, she changed into another set of clothes and then went out from the backyard.
After returning home with such a bag of money, Yu Shirley immediately hid in the stove hole under the kang. There was no need to burn the kang tonight and it would not be cold. When she went to pick up the child from Xie Jinghao's house, Xie Jinghao also Leave some food for her.
For a few dollars a month, a child can't eat much. She actually felt sorry for what she was charging. When she mentioned the price, it was actually to let Wu Xianglan pay more. Xie Jinghao knew in her heart that Yu Shirley was accompanying this person. Sister-in-law is cheating on Wu Xianglan!
It's just that she suddenly came back late today, so she still couldn't help but worry, and Da Ya and Xiao Ya were also very worried.
"I'm fine. The hospital is still closed at the same time. It's just that there is an old lady who talked to me. She was very ill today and almost died, so I took care of her, so I came back late."
When she was a leper's daughter-in-law, she told many lies, so now she made random excuses, and Xie Jinghao didn't say anything.
Things went smoothly, but with so much money in her hands, she was very anxious, hoping that Shen Meng would come back soon.
Because several heavy industry jobs were temporarily added, Secretary Li and Secretary Tang Yiguan needed to stay in the provincial capital to resolve the follow-up matters, and Shen Meng did not leave immediately.
After the hair flower issue was resolved, there was still the non-staple food factory that needed to be solved. The name given to the village was for the non-staple food factory. She happened to have nothing to do today. According to the address given by Jiang Huan before, she picked up some gifts and called I took a tricycle and went to Jiang Huan's home.
"Turn around the alley ahead, and there are basically houses where the drivers of the three-wheeled turtles live. If you can't find it, just ask. That's how the address is written, and I can't pull my car in."
"Okay, master, thank you for your hard work. This is the fare."
The manpower master accepted the money, nodded to Shen Meng with a smile, and then stepped on the car and left. These days, it is a master who rides a tricycle. It is also a good job. When you meet a good person, he can help you show the way. If you have a bad temper, you might even be able to kick someone out of the car!
After asking two people, Shen Meng found the courtyard where Jiang Huan lived. It was a courtyard with three entrances. There were several elderly people washing clothes in the courtyard, and several children playing in the courtyard.
Shen Meng attracted attention as soon as she entered the courtyard. She looked around and then said: "Hello, aunt, does Jiang Huan live here?"
"Hey, this girl is really beautiful. She is looking for Jiang Huan. She is here. Someone is looking for Jiang Huan. Come out quickly?"
"It's calling the soul, I'm listening."
Jiang Huan had just tidied up his brat, and he almost broke someone's window with a slingshot. The brat would cause trouble. If he broke the window, he would have to spend money and apologize. It was really embarrassing.
She was furious. When she heard someone calling her, she walked to the door with a groan. She raised her eyelids and was startled for a moment. She thought she was dazzled!
"Hey! Xiaomeng, why are you here?"
"Sister Jiang, I have finished my work in the provincial capital. I just came to see you. I will go back tomorrow."
Jiang Huan looked at Shen Meng carrying big and small bags and was very happy. He didn't expect to meet such a nice girl while visiting relatives.
"Come on, come on, come in quickly, hey, sister didn't know you were here just now, she was scolding my brat. This kid was so naughty that he almost smashed the window." "Little boys are naughty. The same goes for those guys. Sister, are you not at work today?"
A visitor came to the house, and the children who had just been playing in the yard gathered around the door. Jiang Huan's two children stood at the front, with their heads held high, as if it was something special to have guests at home. same thing.
"These are candies, pastries, and fruits for the children. These are chocolates. Two boxes were given by the foreign businessmen who cooperated with our county. Sister, please come back and try to see if they taste good."
Shen Meng did not introduce the rest one by one. Apples, canned fruits, malted milk, etc. were basically in short supply.
"Here, you have brought too many things. You are embarrassing me. I will keep these fruits and candies. You can take the rest back for your children to eat when you leave. Oh yes. , you sit down, I’m going to buy groceries right now, eat at home for lunch, try my handiwork, I’ll make dumplings for you.”
"No, no, Sister Jiang, I have something else to do in the afternoon. I just wanted to come over and see you before I leave tomorrow. It is fate that we met each other. I care about your character and don't want to break off the relationship just like this."
Jiang Huan was so moved that she could tell from between the lines of Shen Meng's words that Shen Meng was not a simple person. She was a small citizen herself. She had never eaten any chocolate before, and even foreigners had seen it several times on the street. Yes, but we talked there!
This girl is a person who does great things, but she just wanted to come and see her before she left. For a moment, she felt that she was also great.
"Mom, I want to eat candy."
Jiang Huan's son shouted loudly, and she looked a little ugly. Shen Meng smiled lightly, opened a bag of fruit candies, grabbed a handful and waved to the children.
"Take it and share it!"
The children dispersed with a "Wow!" and the aunt who had just helped Shen Meng call Jiang Huan also hurriedly came over, waving her hands.
"Look at the children just handing out candies. I came over to thank you. Why haven't I seen you before? Comrade, Jiang Huan, what kind of relative are these?"
"What relative? This is my sister. I just thanked you, Aunt Cai. Take this handful of candies and sweeten your mouth!"
Jiang Huan grabbed a few candies and stuffed them into Aunt Cai's hands, then immediately put away everything on the table and put them in the back room, fearing that Aunt Cai might want something.
Shen Meng flipped up her hair and pretended not to notice.
By the time Jiang Huan came out of the back room, Aunt Cai had already snorted and left.
"Sister, don't be ridiculous. We all live in a big courtyard. Some people just love petty gains."
"It's okay. It's the same in our village. Sister, I think your house is a bit too small. According to what you said before, shouldn't you and your brother-in-law share a house? Are you still renting a house?"
Jiang Huan sighed. If the house could be divided, who would want to squeeze the whole family into such a shabby house? , I often give gifts when asking for help, but it just doesn’t work. Thinking about it makes me panic.
