"Vice President, if you really find my friend, you must contact us when the time comes, in the final analysis, we are all responsible for this matter."
She walked to the door of the café and paused when she heard her speak: "As a student, the most important thing for you now is to study. ”
In fact, many times her thoughts are the same as those of her parents, hoping that what every student can learn in school is knowledge and growth.
Meng Guoyun came down from upstairs with a lot of things, looked at Brother Meng Yao on the phone and shouted with a smile: "Meng Meng, change your clothes." ”
She was on the phone when she heard Meng Guoyun's voice, turned her head and said embarrassedly to the other end of the phone: "I'll hang up the phone first." ”
"Who called you Meng Meng just now?" The other end of the phone asked suspiciously, and she stumbled: "It's not anyone." ”
After hanging up the phone, Meng Guoyun had already come down, and Xiaoxiao handed her the bag in his hand: "Who were you talking to on the phone just now?" ”
"A friend who isn't a friend, please ask him something. What about mom and grandma? ”
"I'm still helping you choose clothes, and I said I'm going to help you choose a few more sets of clothes to take to school." He smiled, and Mengyao went to the bathroom: "I'll go change clothes." ”
Brother Mengyao's uncle's house is actually on the outskirts of the city, not far from the suburbs, but it is a little far from Brother Mengyao's home, so it takes two or three hours to arrive as soon as the car drives. The younger uncle is twenty seventy-eight years old, and it is not very early to get engaged now, and his job is only an executive of a company, although the salary is seven or eight thousand, but the object of his engagement is a professor, and the difference in the salary of the two is a little big. The parents of both parties have some opinions on this matter, but they can't stop the children from wanting to get married, so they can only do so.
This engagement does not seem to be so satisfactory in the eyes of Cui Jiali's grandmother Meng Guoyun.
The engagement ceremony is in the hotel, very ordinary, but the scene is very gorgeous, according to Grandma Meng, it seems that the woman's family does not want her daughter to suffer in the man's house, so the scene is so gorgeous, but also to give the man a warning.
She sat in the car, watching so many people outside outside enter through the door, and then said blessings, a big wedding photo was hung at the door of the hotel, on which a pair of men and women leaned happily together, their ring fingers were intertwined, and they were so shiny wearing wedding rings.
Leaning his hand against his chin against the window, his eyes turned around in the doorway, and after a while, he suddenly sneered, turned his head, leaned back in the seat and took a nap.
Meng Guoyun carried things and helped Cui Jiali and Grandma Meng to stop at the door.
The sister-in-law and the second uncle stood at the door to greet the familiar guests, and as soon as they saw Meng Guoyun and the three of them, they immediately came over, and smiled affectionately and raised their hands to greet: "Here, auntie." ”
A flower on Grandma Meng's face: "It's coming." ”
My sister-in-law hurriedly came over and supported Cui Jiali: "Why do you only see you?" What about Meng Meng? I haven't seen her for a long time, her younger brother liked her the most when she was a child, why didn't she come when the fourth child was engaged? ”
"How could it not come." Cui Jiali smiled and pointed to the car behind her: "She said she was a little tired and there was no place to rest inside, so she rested in the car and came out after a while." ”
"I'll take a look."
"Forget it, don't go." The second uncle called out to the sister-in-law, with a smile on his face: "Hurry up and go in, the eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law have been waiting for a long time, and the fourth is still waiting for Guoyun to go in to help." ”
After the three of them entered, the sister-in-law and the second uncle shook their heads helplessly: "Meng Meng, this child, the older he gets, the more he doesn't kiss." ”
"Children are like that." He smiled and continued to greet the people below.
Cui Jiali helped her stomach to go up to the second floor, and as soon as she entered, she saw her uncle standing at the door with a strong face on her face, and next to him stood a woman who could be said to be very beautiful, with the same happiness on her face, and her mouth was open and closed. Standing next to the two of them was Brother Mengyao's eldest aunt, second aunt and eldest aunt and eldest aunt.
Grandma Meng's face was smiling, and she hurriedly walked over as soon as she came in.
Feeling that someone was coming, the little uncle and the others all turned around, and when they saw Grandma Meng's loving smiling face, they immediately greeted her: "Auntie, you can count it as coming, fourth sister, brother-in-law, you are here." ”
Both of them snorted: "Little brother, happy engagement, if the young couple gets married in the future, they must get along well." Cui Jiali took the woman's hand, and the woman hummed: "Fourth sister, brother-in-law, aunt." ”
"This girl, I like it when I look at it." Grandma Meng also followed, and looked the woman up and down: "It's a blessed one." ”
"Auntie, don't look at it, wait and scare the little girl." The aunt is still like that, dressed as a noble lady and joked with a smile. The uncle and the others all laughed.
"Didn't Meng Meng come?" After chatting for a while, the little uncle turned to the topic, and Cui Jiali's faces were stunned for a moment before smiling: "She's outside, I'll come in later, this kid has changed a little bit, how to say, it's not too close to anyone, wait a minute, don't make fun of her." ”
The little uncle is still very good and gentle, and the smile on his face froze when he heard Cui Jiali say this: "No matter how much the child changes, no matter how much he changes, he is still closest to me when he is a child." ”
After he finished speaking, he thought that Cui Jiali and the three of them would smile and agree, but when he saw a different smile flashing on the faces of the three of them, there was nothing else.
He was also stunned for a moment, and the topic suddenly stopped.
The engagement ceremony started at half past one at noon, and Brother Meng Yao took a long nap in the car before waking up in the blazing sun, and Meng Guoyun came out of the hotel as soon as he rolled down the window.
"Meng Meng, come down, the engagement ceremony is about to begin." He stood at the door and shouted at the car. She gestured to indicate that she had heard, straightened her clothes, and handled herself briefly before getting out of the car and locking it casually.
The sun is blazing, the kind of heat that has not been seen before, and perhaps it is because of the enthusiasm for engagement that it has become like this. She reached out to block the sunlight, but she still couldn't block the light that was falling from between her fingers. He yawned and walked on.
Meng Guoyun looked at her tired face, and noticed the scars on her face at a glance: "Did you accidentally get injured last night, so your mood is not very good, do you want to go to the hospital to see?" ”
"No, maybe I'm too sleepy, I'll wash my face and wake up." Meng Guoyun snorted and stretched out his hand to wrap his hand around her shoulder, and was suddenly surprised to find that Brother Meng Yao's height had actually reached his neck, and smiled with relief: "In the blink of an eye, you are already so tall." ”
She turned her head with a sigh and found that her words were long, and she only knew that Meng Guoyun's chest was on the top of her neck now.
"No matter how high I am, I'm your daughter."
Lovingly touched her head: "Go and wash your face." She snorted and straightened her clothes.
Cui Jiali was very familiar with her dressing style, and bought her an off-white thick coat with a hat and rows of buttons, which couldn't fit her figure anymore, as if it was tailor-made. She wore a one-piece winter skirt and half-height boots on her feet, and she had begun to slowly take on the smell of an adult.
After washing his face, the person in the mirror seemed to already look like an adult.
Bitter smile: In a year's time, you have changed from a child to the person you are now, and you are not a ghost, how long will it be before you will say goodbye to this world and go to the place you want to go?
"I'm sorry, have you washed your hands?"
She was in a daze, her long hair hanging down to her knees, cold water dripping down her cheeks onto the sink.
Hearing the voice, she moved away from the side unhurriedly, and withdrew her hands wetly: "I'm sorry." ”
Out of the bathroom, went directly to the second floor, the lights on the second floor have been turned off, the people around are constantly discussing in a low voice, and the stage has already begun to try the wheat, and the person who tried the wheat is actually Meng Guoyun, he is wearing a formal suit, wearing a tie, and constantly shouting with a smile on his face, 'Hey, hey, hey', as soon as she entered the door, Meng Guoyun's eyes looked over, with a soft smile: "Meng Meng, come over and do Dad a favor." ”
The sound sounded from the microphone, and her steps stopped in mid-air, feeling countless eyes shooting at her, and she took a long time to walk unhurriedly and unhurriedly.
The stage is the only place where there is light, as soon as she came up, there were bursts of waves of discussion in the audience, Cui Jiali had embarrassment on her face, but Grandma Meng was as soft as ever, and patted the back of Cui Jiali's hand: "It's good to let her be talked about behind her back." ”
"Mom"
"Meng Meng?"
The sound of questions immediately came from the audience. Meng Guoyun pulled Brother Meng Yao, stretched out his hand and touched her head: "Wait a minute, can you help lift the bride's wedding dress, and serve as a hostess by the way?" ”
She glanced at the people on the stage who were tinkering with things, but there was no master of ceremonies and hostess: "It turns out that the team that has something to do is actually the host team." ”
Meng Guoyun smiled knowingly.
got off the stage and came directly to Cui Jiali's table, and the people sitting at this table were all close to the bride and groom, so as soon as she came over, she immediately surprised the little aunt: "Is it really Meng Meng?" This change is too big, almost unrecognizable, I thought it was a star, she was getting more and more beautiful. ”
She looked at the people at the table with a smile and nodded and shouted one by one: "Auntie, second aunt, sister-in-law, uncle, second uncle, eldest uncle, second uncle, little uncle, eldest aunt, second aunt." ”
"This little mouth is sweet."
She looked at the bride's family again: "My name is Brother Mengyao." ”
"You are Meng Meng? I heard your uncle mention you and say that you are a good boy, and I read it today, which is a bit interesting and polite. ”
"Thanks for the compliment."
After that, he looked at Cui Jiali and Grandma Meng: "I'll go and help my little aunt carry a wedding dress." ”
"Thank you for your hard work." Cui Jiali's face was full of maternal love, and she hummed: "Remember to call me if there is anything, if you are uncomfortable, say it earlier, grandma, take good care of yourself and your mother." ”
"Okay, okay, I'm an old bone, can you not know, you go quickly, your little aunt should come out soon."
She hummed and went to the inner hall unhurriedly, as soon as she walked away, the table exploded immediately, especially the aunt They kept saying that this Brother Mengyao has changed a lot, the whole person is simply too mature and too much, much better than her own children, Cui Jiali and Grandma Meng are over there smiling and pandering, and only they know in their hearts whether Brother Mengyao's appearance is good or bad.
Brother Mengyao would let the people at that table discuss for a while every place he walked by, just because of her face, because of her overly mature face.
As soon as Liu Cheng came up from below, he bumped into Brother Meng Yao, and was stunned for a moment and took a step back: "You are the one who washed the sink just now"
She snorted in confusion? Turn around and continue walking towards the atrium.
When I walked to the back hall, I saw her little aunt as she wished, and of course I saw her little uncle, the man who was already twenty-seven or eighteen years old.
Looking at her appearance in surprise, the little uncle slowed down for a while: "Meng Meng, you have changed a lot, I didn't expect that you have grown up for a long time." ”
"Congratulations on the engagement, uncle, auntie."
"You are Meng Meng?" The woman still had that smile on her face, and saw that Brother Mengyao also picked up the phone: "It's a little different from the photo, your brother-in-law has been telling me how cute you are before, but I didn't expect the difference to be so big after we met, which made me a little, a little surprised." She laughed twice.
He also replied to her with a smile: "The engagement will start soon, uncle, go out." ”
Didn't respond to anything, as if you hadn't heard it.
The uncle's face was embarrassed and he snorted: "My niece is actually very good, don't worry." After comforting the woman, he went out, and before leaving, he glanced at Brother Meng Yao, who had a smile in the corner of his eyes and there was nothing wrong with it.
After everyone was gone, the bride looked up at her: "Where did you go to school?" ”
"Attached."
"Attached? High school? Isn't it the worst school in the country? ”
She raised an eyebrow, "Yes." ”
"Oh, I'm not saying that school is the worst, it's just that school claims to be the worst, and I'm a professor of economics at the School of Economics, Trade and Economics. If you want to think of this school, I can help you. ”
"Thank you, but no, you are welcome to visit our school next time."
"Huh? Going to your school? It's better to wait for the next time you are free, why don't you go to our school to have a look, our school is still very good. ”
"Okay, let's wait until the engagement is over."
She was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect Brother Mengyao to agree so readily: "My surname is Zheng, Zheng Xiaoyuan." ”
"Brother Mengyao."
"The engagement ceremony has begun." As soon as she finished saying her name, Zheng Xiaoyuan sighed: "I can still talk in school, the attached primary school is not a good school to return to, you are also your brother-in-law's beloved niece, and I am his lover, I will definitely help you, that school is really not particularly good." ”
