Chapter 320: Intercession
On the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Mei Lan and Cai Ganlin left Cai's door with their luggage and went straight to the airport.
It was Deng Jianwu who went to the airport to pick up the person, and in the car, Deng Jianwu told SΓΉ Meilan, saying that Mei Ju committed suicide by cutting her wrists on Chinese New Year's Eve, but fortunately was discovered by Mei Xin in time, otherwise, the consequences would be very strict.
"Suicide by slitting your wrists? Isn't she doing well in Beijing? What's going on here? Mei Lan was really taken aback.
Her first reaction was disbelief.
Mei Ju has always been selfish, such a selfish person is willing to commit suicide by cutting his wrists? Besides, she lived alone in Deng Jianwu's house for a few days in Beijing, and she didn't want to die at that time, how could she think of cutting her wrists and committing suicide when she returned home?
"This is not your mother-in-law, no, it should be called Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wang fell ill as soon as she came home, and she was admitted to the hospital during the New Year, how to calculate the medical expenses of the Mei family, the four brothers should always sit down and discuss, even if the medical expenses in Beijing are paid by your aunt's family, but this time the hospitalization at home should always be shared equally among the four families, right? This year they are spending the New Year at the third child's house, and I heard that the brothers quarreled over this matter, and they must have said something ugly, Mei Ju locked herself up when she went home, and found a fruit knife to cut her wrist. β
"This, this, she actually has such a big temperament?"
Mei Lan was speechless, it seems that she was really stimulated this time, because Mei Lan has the impression that Mei Ju is also a person who does her own thing, Deng Hongying, Deng Jianwen, Deng Jianwu and Liu Qiaozhen and others have all said that she is lazy and gluttonous, but she just doesn't change, who likes to say anything, she doesn't take it to heart, anyway, she is too lazy to eat.
"Later, I don't know who told Mrs. Wang about this, Mrs. Wang couldn't stay in the hospital anymore, so she had to be discharged from the hospital and guard Mei Ju, but Mrs. Wang's health was not good at all, this toss, it is said that the cold has worsened again, your mother, your aunt have been serving her for the past few days."
As soon as Mei Lan heard this, it is estimated that Deng Hongying has been scolded a lot in the past few days, according to Wang Ximei's temperament, I am afraid that I can't wait to bite Mei Lan a few bites, because Mei Lan bought the ticket for Deng Hongying's idea.
As soon as Mei Lan's car stopped, Bo Yu ran out when they heard the movement, and they all liked Mei Lan to take them to play.
"Mei Xin, have you grown so tall?"
Mei Lan hasn't seen Mei Xin for a year, Mei Xin has grown up a lot compared to a year ago, not only has she grown up, but she has also matured a lot, but she seems to be a little raw when she sees Mei Lan, and when she saw Mei Lan entering the door, she didn't run over to ask questions like before, but stood at the door a little timidly and looked at Mei Lan and Cai Ganlin.
"What's wrong? Don't know my sister anymore? Merlin smiled and stepped forward and touched his head.
"No, second sister, I, I'm afraid you don't even want me." Mei Xin's eyes turned red after saying this.
As soon as Mei Lan heard this, she thought that Mei Xin was because Mei Ju was a little stimulated and wanted to appease him a few words, so she motioned to Cai Ganlin to go in with her luggage.
"What nonsense, when did the second sister stop wanting you?"
Mei Xin shook her head when she heard this, and said: "I haven't seen the second sister for a year, the second sister is not the second sister before, the third sister, the third sister is not the third sister before, and the eldest sister is too, you have all changed, the eldest sister also quarrels with her parents every day, asking for money to buy a house, the third sister is crying every day looking for death and life, her mother-in-law is sick, and she can't scold people if she wants to, and her parents are too, you blame me and I blame you, quarrel every day, there is no day of peace at home." β
"Xiao Xin, these are adult things, you are now in your third year of high school, don't worry about these things, take the exam well, don't worry, the second sister has arranged it for you."
"Second sister, I, I heard that you took back the shares of the company you gave to your mother, saying that the money will be kept for me to study and get married and buy a house in the future, second sister, then I don't want your money in the future, I will work by myself in the future to earn money to go to college, you give this money to your mother, okay?"
After Mei Xin finished speaking, he glanced at Mei Lan timidly, the Mei Lan in front of him was dressed brightly and brightly, not angry and arrogant, but unfortunately it did not overlap with the second sister who always wore an old school uniform but was happy all day long in his memory, as if they were two people.
"Who told you to say that?" Mei Lan asked with a straight face.
"No, no one, me, I heard my father and mother quarrel that the family had no money to treat my mother-in-law, and my uncle didn't want to pay for her mother-in-law to see a doctor before scolding the third sister, otherwise the third sister would not have been so angry that she would have committed suicide by cutting her wrists. Second sister, I know that my mother-in-law treats you badly, but she is always an old man in her seventies, I saw her lying on the bed like this, I, I feel very sad, and the third sister is too, I didn't eat or drink all day yesterday, I, I ......" Mei Xin couldn't go on with the words in the back.
Mei Lan was just about to open her mouth, Deng Jianwen came out, he heard Deng Jianwu say that Mei Xin stopped Mei Lan, so he came out to take a look, and happened to hear Mei Xin's words.
"Xiao Xin, don't worry about these things, your task now is to study hard, there are only four months left, listen to your uncle, don't care about the things between these adults. Let's go, go into the house, your second sister just got off the plane, she hasn't eaten lunch yet, and there are other guests waiting at home, by the way, you can't tell your grandmother about this. β
"I know my grandmother is not in good health." Mei Xin lowered her head.
Mei Lan took his hand and entered the house, the room was full of people, Chen Longfei and Chen Longtian also came with their wives and children, and they were talking about Huang Dajian and his son (Xia Tong's friend) opening a hotel in Beijing.
Because Huang Dajian and Du Juan are also people in this neighborhood, and they have both delivered food together, Huang Dajian opened a small restaurant with the funding of Xia Tong, who knows that in the past few years, he has opened three branches in Beijing, and the business is getting bigger and bigger, and the house and car are now available, so the two brothers are also moved and want to open a restaurant in Beijing, they have innate favorable conditions for opening a restaurant, because they themselves are food deliverers.
knew that Mei Baoping was a chef and opened a restaurant in Meixian County, so the two brothers wanted to ask Mei Baoping to be the chef, and they were consulting Deng Jianwu about the feasibility of this matter.
Mei Zhu was setting the table, and when she heard this, she interjected and asked: "My dad is his own restaurant in Meixian, how much can he give a month when he goes to Beijing?" Or let my dad get a share, and then the chef's fee will be counted separately? β
Chen Longfei couldn't answer when he heard this, but when he saw Mei Lan enter the door, he stepped forward with a smile.
"Merlin is here? That's who you, right? I heard that he was here last year, but unfortunately we didn't come back last year, so we have to have a few glasses of wine today, he won't look down on us countrymen, right? β
"What are you kidding my cousin? I'm not a redneck? Mei Lan had a good impression of these two guys, when they broke their legs, they took Mei Lan to find the old seat for Mei Lan to massage, otherwise Mei Lan's hands and feet would not be so fast.
Mei Lan introduced these two cousins to Cai Ganlin, and when Cai Ganlin heard Mei Lan's introduction in such detail, he nodded at the other party, took out two soft Chinese from the box, and one of them gave one.
"This nephew and son-in-law is really interesting." Chen Longfei and his brothers couldn't close their mouths with joy.
When Mei Zhu heard this, she smiled bitterly, pulled out a smile at Mei Lan, nodded, but didn't say anything, just beckoned Mei Lan to wash her hands and eat.
Liu Qiaozhen said to Mei Zhu on the side: "Go find a clean lunch box, pick out a few dishes, and send them to your parents later." β
It turned out that Mei Zhu said to Liu Qiaozhen that Wang Ximei was still hospitalized, and Deng Hongying and the three went to the hospital to serve Wang Ximei, so they couldn't come over for dinner.
"No, grandma, my dad will bring some food when they go at noon." Meizhu said.
"What time is it, it's time for a shift, right?" Liu Qiaozhen muttered to herself.
"Don't change shifts, my dad and they agreed to share the money, my mom said she worked harder and worked harder, who told my mother-in-law to go to Beijing to get sick? Besides, my mother-in-law, you know how difficult she is, except for my mother, who wants to be in the front? Meizhu said.
"It's not your mother who asked her to go, one of her is going by herself, who is to blame? Before the eight characters were skimmed, she rose up first, isn't this still blowing? People in their seventies, and they are still so unreliable? Zhou Guizhi pursed his lips and said.
"Okay, let's eat, how she likes to toss and let her toss, it has nothing to do with us." Deng Jianwu said.
He didn't have a good impression of this Wang Ximei at all, he would never forget Mei Lan's bloody face lying on the ground of Mei's house and couldn't move, a person with a bad heart, eyes and skills, even if she was an old man, she didn't deserve sympathy!
Liu Qiaozhen opened her mouth, and swallowed back what she wanted to say.
After the meal, Mei Xin still wanted to pull Mei Lan to intercede, but unfortunately Deng Shuiying held Mei Lan's hand and kept talking.
Deng Shuiying has already scheduled to return to Hong Kong for the seventh day of junior high school, and she will go to the United States after Boyu Bocong starts school, and she doesn't know whether it is good or bad to go to the United States this time, so she has already made the worst plan, and she can get along with Mei Lan for a while.
Of course, Deng Shuiying is also relieved that Mei Lan is not at ease, Mei Lan is celebrating the New Year in Cai's house for the first time, she wants to know if the Cai family is good to Mei Lan, whether Mei Lan is used to living in Cai's house, whether anyone in the Cai family makes things difficult for Mei Lan, who are some people in the Cai family, and so on.
Mei Lan naturally said that she was picky, in fact, Mei Lan's life in the Cai family was also good, Fang Zhe really liked Mei Lan, Cai Qingruo was not embarrassed by Mei Lan because of guilt, Cai Qingmao knew Mei Lan's ability, with Mei Lan such a money-holding rake by Cai Ganlin's side, the Cai family will only become more and more prosperous, what else is he unhappy about?
As for Li Yunru, she is just an aunt, what right does she have to meddle in her nephew's marriage? What's more, Cai Ganlin didn't even listen to the old lady's words, so she was happy to be a good person.
The only one in the Cai family who didn't like Mei Lan was the old lady, but the old lady was willing to put down the shelf and eat the bread Mei Lan bought and wear the clothes Mei Lan bought, which was already a silent compromise.
Of course, the Cai family that Mei Lan said excluded Cai Qinghe, and Cai Qinghe really didn't look down on Mei Lan who gave Mei Lan some problems from time to time, but Mei Lan chose to ignore her.
Therefore, Mei Lan did not suffer any grievances in the Cai family, and the result was much better than she expected. R1152
