Chapter 135: Refusal
While Mei Lan was upstairs with questions, Mei Zhu and Mei Ju downstairs were also full of questions, pulling Mei Baoping and Wang Ximei to solve.
"Dad, how could Lan Lan have such an idea? She's really not my sister? How come I haven't heard of any shadows? Meizhu asked.
", she's got into the horns, what maggots are you chewing on? Don't talk about enlightening her well, what kind of mess will you add? Mei Baoping glared at Mei Zhu.
"Dad, how do you know she's on the horns? She had asked before? "Mei Zhu remembered the last time Wang Ximei pushed Meilan, and pointed at Wang Ximei and said;" Mother-in-law, is it because you pushed her during the New Year? ”
"It's my mother-in-law, last time my mother-in-law said that the second sister is a white-eyed wolf, and raising dogs and cats is better than raising people or something, right? Is it because of this? Mei Ju also remembered that time Wang Ximei pointed at Sang and scolded Huai.
"Mom, pay attention to what you say in the future, you see, not only Lanli thinks so, but even Zhuli and Juli think so, you, hey, I originally wanted to talk to the child, let her pay some decoration money after buying a house, there is nothing left to buy a house for 200,000 yuan, Juli has to go to Beijing to study, and I have to bring 15,000 yuan to go when school starts." Mei Baoping complained a few words.
"Okay, okay, I know, I'll pay attention to it in the future." Wang Ximei waved her hand impatiently.
"Mother-in-law, second sister, is she really not my second sister?" Mei Ju asked while pulling Wang Ximei's clothes.
Mei Ju was a little excited, she believed that what Mei Lan said was true, because Wang Ximei had never looked at Mei Lan with her eyes, and she avoided Mei Lan and Mei Xin if she had anything to eat, and even Mei Zhu could occasionally land a little, but Mei Lan didn't seem to have it once.
Also, every time Deng Hongying and Mei Baoping called Mei Ju to help Mei Zhu and Mei Lan work, Wang Ximei could always find a reason not to let Mei Ju do it.
Also, when she was young, Mei Lan sat in the classroom and listened to the class, and Wang Ximei stayed at home to take Mei Xin, but she could always find an excuse to call Mei Lan back every once in a while to take the children or do things.
Also, last year's top bag incident also made Mei Ju wake up. Because Wang Ximei was the only one who firmly defended her, stood on her side, and planned to steal Mei Lan's admission letter.
If these are not enough to explain anything, then the fact that Wang Ximei pushed Mei Lan down the stairs during the Chinese New Year is enough to prove that Wang Ximei definitely did not treat Mei Lan as her own granddaughter. At that time, Wang Ximei looked at Mei Lan like an enemy, whose grandmother would treat her own granddaughter like this?
"Okay, what's the trouble, stop this matter, no one is allowed to mention it again, and you, Ju Li, don't call your second sister in the future, do what you can do by yourself, these children in the family, you are the laziest, even Xiaoxin is stronger." Mei Baoping drank Mei Ju sharply.
Mei Zhu looked at Mei Baoping, who was very inward-looking, and suddenly felt that he also had an answer.
However, if Mei Lan is not the daughter of her parents, then whose daughter is Mei Lan?
Mei Zhu's face appeared in front of her aunt, and she carefully recalled every detail in Shenzhen, including her mother eagerly asking her to rush to Shenzhen, and even letting Mei Zhu take a plane for the first time.
Also, Mei Zhu didn't expect that her mother would take Mei Ju to Shenzhen early the next morning, why did her mother do this?
What are you guarding against?
My aunt gave my mother 200,000 yuan, which is not a small amount of money, again, Mei Lan was in charge of her uncle for three years in high school, and every time my grandmother saw Mei Lan, she had a special expression of pity, and always said that Mei Lan was pitiful.
By the way, there is one more thing, Mei Lan may not remember, but Mei Zhu remembers that the money that the Mei family built this house back then was actually given by the Deng family, and as for who gave it to the Deng family, Mei Zhu is not clear.
No wonder, her mother-in-law dislikes Mei Lan so much, she will let Mei Ju go to school instead of Mei Lan, she will push Mei Lan down the stairs, and she will not have any ancestral and grandchild affection for Mei Lan, it turns out that Mei Lan is not from the Mei family.
Mei Zhu suddenly opened the channel of memory, recalling the past a long time ago, combined with this trip to Shenzhen, Mei Zhu really has a hunch that Mei Lan is not the daughter of the Mei family.
The question now is, Mei Lan is not the daughter of the Mei family, whose daughter is it? According to Mei Lan's appearance, it is nothing more than Deng Shuiying and Deng Hongying.
If Mei Lan is really Deng Shuiying's daughter, why doesn't Deng Shuiying want Mei Lan? This time in Shenzhen, Mei Zhu didn't see anything special about Deng Shuiying to Mei Lan? If it is really a mother and daughter, who have not seen each other for so many years, can they control their love?
If it is Deng Hongying's daughter, then it is still her mother's daughter, and it is the daughter born by her mother to someone else, so the Deng family is ashamed, so they have to bow their heads and beg for satisfaction, endure humiliation, in order to give the Mei family a hush money.
Meizhu came to almost the same conclusion as Meilan.
"Mei Ju, don't go and ask around, the second sister felt wronged because she was scolded by her mother-in-law, and thought about it more, plus her parents were a little biased before, so she was unbalanced, you, listen to your father, do what you can do in the future, even if you go to Beijing." Mei Zhu told Mei Ju.
She knew that Mei Ju's mouth was not guarded, and Wang Ximei was obedient to Mei Ju, and she told Mei Ju the truth one day, and after Mei Ju knew the truth, Mei Lan's life experience would definitely not be hidden.
If Mei Lan knew her life experience, with Mei Lan's temper or character, it was very likely that she would give the Mei family a sum of money and repay the Mei family's nurturing grace, which is not what Mei Zhu wants to see, and it will not be what her parents want to see.
In the next few days, Deng Hongying took Mei Lan, Mei Zhu, and Mei Ju to the field to do farm work for a few days, fertilizing the peanuts and loosening the soil, and then spraying some pesticides, but spraying pesticides is Deng Hongying's job.
On this day, because the farm work in the field was almost over, and the rice in the field was still two days away, Mei Baoping drove everyone to Meixian County to see the decoration of the restaurant and the house, and went to pick up Mei Xin by the way.
Mei Lan originally didn't want to follow, she wanted to go to the Shanshui Inn to see Aunt Lin, and by the way, to see if Gu Lei had been there, he didn't answer his phone call for two days, Mei Lan guessed that he hadn't adjusted his mentality yet, so he wouldn't bother him.
But Mei Lan didn't want to stay at home with Wang Ximei, the two hated each other, and Mei Lan hadn't gone to see Yang Yu until she went home, and the clothes she bought for Peng Peng hadn't been sent out.
When Mei Zhu and Deng Hongying heard that Mei Lan was not going, they had to drag Mei Lan alive or dead, one said that Mei Lan had not been to see Mei Xin since she went home, and the other said that how could she not participate in such a big matter at home as a member of the family?
Mei Lan thought for a while and then went out with her, first, she really didn't want to stay at home with Wang Ximei and the two of them, and they hated each other; Second, since she came back, she has not been to see Yang Yu and Peng Peng, and the clothes she bought for Peng Peng have not been given away; Third, Mei Lan also wanted to see the scale of Mei Baoping's restaurant.
Mei Lan took the things and went to see the restaurant with them first, the restaurant was on a slightly more remote street in Meixian County, saying that it was a restaurant, it was better to say that it was a rice noodle shop, because the original owner was selling all kinds of boiled noodles and fried noodles, and the reason why the original owner didn't do it was estimated that he couldn't make a lot of money.
However, Mei Lan thinks that the place is okay, the price is reasonable, and the restaurants in the downtown area will not be cashed out, and this price and location are just right for Mei Baoping to practice, after all, he has not been a serious boss so far.
"Dad, you decorate it a little, in addition to making fried noodles and boiling powder, you can also add a little stir-fry, or Malatang, Malatang is cheap and more popular."
Mei Lan remembered that when she was in high school, Li Zhican or Guo Yang had several treats to eat Malatang.
"Okay, listen to our Lan Lan." Mei Baoping deliberately used a more intimate tone.
Mei Lan heard it, smiled, and didn't say anything.
"If you want me to say, it just so happens that your brother-in-law is renovating the house in the countryside, and there is no hurry about things over there, so it is better to get this restaurant done first, so that your father can open it early." Deng Hongying looked at Mei Lan and said.
"Go tell your uncle about this." Merlin refused.
Doesn't it mean that sister and brother have a deep relationship? This little thing still uses Mei Lan to come forward?
"Okay, Mom, if you want me to say, let's go buy a house first, and let my uncle decorate it after buying a house, and save my uncle two trips." Meizhu said.
"Yes, yes, then hurry up and buy a house." Deng Hongying nodded.
Mei Baoping took everyone to the community by the artificial lake, this community was developed a few years ago, the location and location are better, there is no extra housing at all, and finally only got the new community on the side of the reservoir, which is also a new area.
Meizhu fell in love with the villa by the reservoir at a glance, the villa has a single-family and a townhouse, the villa is facing a large reservoir, each family has a small yard, the yard is a lawn, the periphery of the villa is not a brick wall, but a wrought iron railing, just to see the water feature, some people also put a sun umbrella in front of them, there are a few white plastic chairs under the umbrella.
"Meilan, I like it here, except that it is not Shenzhen, I think the environment is no worse than my aunt's house, you see, there are also two large forest parks over there, and there are buses here, and it is convenient to enter and exit." Mei Zhu stepped forward and hugged Mei Lan.
In fact, Mei Lan herself did consider buying a villa here, and she remembers once passing by in a car, and an idea flashed to her that she thought it would be very pleasant to sit by this reservoir and watch the sunset and drink tea.
Of course, that was Mei Lan's previous thoughts, and now Mei Lan will never buy a house in Mei County, because Mei County, it is estimated that she will not come back in the future.
If before this, Mei Lan may have considered buying a house for Deng Hongying to settle down in Mei County, then after Deng Hongying took Deng Shuiying's 200,000 yuan, Mei Lan completely stopped thinking about it.
"Mom and Dad, this is not a small amount of money, not only the cost of buying a house, how can the decoration of such a beautiful house cost 1.8 million, and the annual property fee is not a small amount of money, just Dad opened that small restaurant, can he afford this cost? Don't look at me, I won't pay for it, I've done what I should have done for you. ”
Mei Lan simply refused. R1152
