"I wanted to go over and say hello to you yesterday, but I'm afraid that going will prevent you from returning to your home, so it's not going to be delayed until today." The woman's enthusiasm was so sincere and upright that she felt much more comfortable talking to her than talking to the old lady.

The woman warmly let Mei Yali and Mu Jingchen into the hall, and then made tea for them.

When Mei Yali handed over the two bags of fruit in her hand, the woman was very pushing, and later saw that Mei Yali was sincere, and her youngest son had been secretly swallowing saliva, and the woman thanked them with a grateful face.

Mei Yali likes this mother and son very much, although their family is obviously poorer than the old lady's family, but if Mei Yali chooses, of course she will choose to make friends with the woman in front of her.

As soon as she thought of this, she touched a small bag of chocolate chips and two sandwich cakes from her small bag, "Little brother, these are for you to eat." ”

The little boy's eyes lit up when he saw these things, but he didn't immediately rush over to take the things in his hands, but looked at his mother first.

The woman hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly, "Sister will give it to you, you can take it." ”

The little boy rubbed to Mei Yali's side and opened his little hand to catch the things Mei Yali handed over.

Mei Yali touched the little guy's soft black hair, "Sister-in-law is very good at teaching children. ”

When the woman heard this, her face suddenly lit up, and she had to say a few words of modesty without sincerity.

Such a scene made Mei Yali feel very familiar, and the faint warmth and happiness made her feel very comfortable in it.

She chatted with the woman for a while, both of them were cheerful, and soon the more they chatted, the more speculative they became, and Mu Jingchen, who was left aside, could only silently drink tea as a backdrop.

When Mei Yali and Mu Jingchen said goodbye, the woman and Mei Yali had even made an appointment to take care of Mei Yali's yard and house when Mu Jingchen and Mei Yali were not there.

The woman kept sending them out of the gate of her house, and then stood at the door and watched them enter the next yard, and then took her youngest son by the hand and went back to the yard.

At the gate of the courtyard on the other side of Mei Yali's house, the old lady was still sitting on the stone pier and looking left and right, until Mei Yali and Mu Jingchen entered their yard and closed the gate, the old lady stood up slowly and moved back to her yard step by step.

At this time, Mayali was unloading the key—she was going to take a key to her own door and give it to the woman next door.

In return for helping them take care of the yard, Mayali had promised to give the vegetables from the yard to the woman next door.

In addition, Mayali also plans to send a few hens from that year.

Although she had only walked around the past, she could see that the woman's family was living a very poor life.

Because the other party has some backbone, it is impossible to accept her heavy gifts, and Mei Yali does not want to raise the other party's appetite, and she will have to face the bad thing of "fighting Mien and promoting rice hatred" in the future, so she thought about it and only planned to send three or five hens over first.

A few hens are not worth much, but they are constantly producing eggs, so that not only can the little boy eat an egg every now and then, but the woman can also save some eggs in exchange for oil, salt, sauce and vinegar and other daily necessities.

"No wonder people always say that there is nothing wrong with illness, nothing else without money." Watching Mei Yali Zhang Luo send live chickens to the woman's family, Mu Jingchen couldn't help but feel a little more emotional.

In their previous life, if it weren't for Grandma Mu's serious illness and entering the high-risk ward, Mu's mother would not have been able to control the six gods without a director, and of course, she would not have tossed everything in the house.

Like the Mu family, who have some family backgrounds, they have not been able to escape the various tragedies brought about by the word "disease", and it is strange that the ordinary family next door is not dragged down by the disease.

But there is one thing that Mu Jingchen is very happy for the woman's family - the woman and her husband, both of them are healthy and healthy, and they are both people who can carry and stand.

The two sat at home for a while, and Mu Jingchen accompanied Mei Yali out again.

Mei Yali went to buy live chickens, and the two walked around the market, and when they came out again, Mu Jingchen had two more bamboo baskets containing three chickens and two chickens respectively.

Originally, Mei Yali wanted to buy six to make up the auspicious number, but there were only five chickens left in the uncle's stall selling chickens.

The uncle said that he could bring a few more tomorrow, but Mei Yali had limited time, so he couldn't wait for him to come out tomorrow.

"Five is also an auspicious number, five is five." After comforting herself like this, Mei Yali made up her mind to buy these five chickens.

The uncle who sold the chickens was a real person, and not only wiped her with change, but also gave her two bamboo baskets to carry the chickens.

Mei Yali was embarrassed to take advantage of honest people, and secondly, she really liked those live chickens, so when she finally paid, she gave the uncle an extra twenty yuan, and insisted that it was the money to buy the two bamboo baskets.

Before the uncle could say "I made the bamboo basket myself, it's worthless", Mei Yali had already left his stall with Mu Jingchen.

The uncle who got the windfall happily closed the stall early, and Mei Yali and Mu Jingchen went to the woman's house next door again.

Because they didn't want the old lady of the other family to see them give chickens to the woman's family, Mei Yali and Mu Jingchen also specially climbed over the courtyard wall of their house to go next door.

When the woman first saw them and the two bamboo baskets on the ground, the whole person was stupid, or the little boy was more accepting, and when he saw his brother and sister coming in over the wall, the little guy was not surprised but only envious and admired, "Brother and sister are so amazing!" I'm going to learn too! I'm going to learn too! I'm going to be a soldier too! ”

The little guy's childish words woke up his mother, and the woman pointed to the bamboo basket on the ground and stammered to Mei Yali, "Sister, what are you doing here?" ”

"Didn't I come to give you the key to my sister-in-law, and I brought a few hens by the way." Mei Yali clapped her hands and stood up straight, "Ah Chen and I may not be able to come over once in a month or two, I can't just use a few greens to send my sister-in-law away." ”

The woman said "Hi", "What's this?" I'm not looking for your thing! ”

She is not a person who likes to talk about right and wrong, and she can't say things like "If there is no one to take care of your house, the old lady who took your shovel before will be able to use your yard as her garden", so when Mei Yali first came to her house, she only asked the other party if she needed her to help take care of the yard.
