Chapter 22: Successful Divorce

After turning to the farmers' market, Meng Chuntao remembered that he had told Meng Guoqiang last night that he would make something to eat for him, and turned his head to buy some meat and wine to take back.

On the road, Meng Chuntao didn't stop for a long time, riding a bicycle under the sun, and the pedals were about to be stepped on by her to spark, and she drove all the way, and finally arrived home before 12 o'clock.

Meng Guoqiang was eating porridge at home, and he was surprised when he saw someone coming back, he thought that Meng Chuntao would not be able to come back until the afternoon or evening.

"I'm back so early, I don't know how to find a place to rest, how hot it is to come back at noon~"

Although Meng Guoqiang was in a reproachful tone, the smile on his face could not be suppressed.

"If I don't come back at noon, I won't see you eating this porridge at noon! Can't you eat something good when I'm not at home? ”

Meng Chuntao pretended to pout angrily, these days after getting along, she has completely brought into the role of her granddaughter.

These days, Meng Chuntao came back with meat every day, and Meng Guoqiang's malnourished face was stunned.

Now that he suddenly saw Meng Guoqiang returning to his previous food, Meng Chuntao's heart suddenly swelled with a burst of sourness.

There are delicious foods at home, but they eat these, no wonder every time she comes back, she feels that the spice jar at home has not been used.

Meng Guoqiang glanced at the half bowl of porridge left, and his face was scornful.

"It's hot, it's good to have some porridge at noon, hehe." Meng Guoqiang knew that he was at a loss, and his confidence was slightly insufficient.

Although he can eat meat these days, occasionally Meng Guoqiang still feels in a trance, why is life so good.

He also had a careful thought that he didn't dare to tell Meng Chuntao, he was afraid that his family would run out of money. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to adapt to coarse tea and light rice, so Meng Guoqiang took advantage of Meng Chuntao's absence at noon every day to eat some sweet potato porridge to remember the bittersweet and sweet.

Seeing that Meng Chuntao was not talking, Meng Guoqiang helped unload the things in the car, looked at the eel cage and changed the topic: "Why are you buying this thing?" It's not that you can't catch an eel? ”

knew that Meng Guoqiang would have such a question, so Meng Chuntao said all his thoughts.

Meng Guoqiang's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "This is really a good method, I will release this good news immediately!" ”

He hurriedly picked up the bowl on the table, ate it in three bites, put down the bowl, and then remembered to ask Meng Chuntao if he had eaten.

Meng Chuntao shook his head, "You go and get busy with yours, I'll rest for a while, and I'll deal with the two of you later." ”

Hearing this, Meng Guoqiang didn't force it, and went out directly with ten eel cages.

It was hot at noon, and Meng Chuntao didn't have much appetite, so she ate some porridge casually and wanted to go to bed.

She got up too early in the morning, and the 5-hour round trip made her tired.

Meng Chuntao basically slept on the bed and slept until three o'clock in the afternoon.

At this point, Meng Guoqiang is generally doing farm work outside.

She walked out of the room, and sure enough, she didn't see anyone.

Meng Chuntao cleaned up the hall, and put a large vat next to the place where the washstand was originally placed, which was used to hold the purchased eels.

The eel cage that was originally placed by the door is now gone.

It looks like they're all rented out.

Ten eel cages cost two dollars a month for rent, and the amount of eels caught will also increase, so it seems that it is urgent to find a fixed supply channel for eels.

Meng Chuntao kept this matter in mind and put the vegetables he bought into the cupboard.

Originally, there were only two seasoning jars of oil and salt in the cupboard, and there were some empty pots and empty bowls and chopsticks and other things, as Meng Chuntao made money, he kept buying some seasonings and replenished them when he ran out.

After the things were packed, Meng Chuntao began to prepare for dinner. This has also become a housework that Meng Chuntao must do every day, so that Meng Guoqiang can have a hot meal as soon as he comes back.

In rural areas, dinner is generally eaten relatively early, and dinner is usually started at five or six o'clock.

Basically, people only eat two meals during the slack season, one meal at about nine o'clock in the morning and one meal at four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

Because it's hot now, it's five or six o'clock.

Since Meng Chuntao went to the county to sell fish, the Meng family has eaten three meals regularly. If there is not enough food, she will buy some directly from the county seat, and there is no need to tighten her stomach to save food.

After Meng Chuntao packed up the dishes that were going to be cooked at night, he caught two live eels, brought a bottle of wine, and went straight to the house of the village head, Meng Guochuan.

The other party can lend him a bicycle, and that is for the sake of relatives. She can't use the bicycle in vain, and she won't give any benefit to Meng Guochuan's family, so it's not like to say it.

Meng Chuntao went to Meng Guochuan's house and knocked on the door, and it was Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law who opened the door.

When she saw Meng Chuntao, surprise crossed her eyes, and she hurriedly let people into the house, "This is coming back from the provincial capital?" I'm going to make dinner, and I'm going to eat it at my house tonight? ”

"Grandma Meng, since you haven't cooked, don't cook it, come to my house to eat. I've pretty much packed up my stuff, and I'll be able to burn it later. I know that Grandpa Meng loves to drink, and he specially brought it from the provincial capital, and I don't know if it's good or not, I hope Grandpa Meng won't dislike it.

This eel can be made for Grandpa Meng to eat, and Grandma Meng can also replenish your body by the way. ”

Meng Chuntao finished speaking with a smile and handed over the things to Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law.

"Xiao Tao, you are too polite, you can come to Grandma Meng's house, just treat this as your own home, what else do you bring!" Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law pretended to excuse herself, but she never let go of what Meng Chuntao brought.

Meng Chuntao didn't know anything, and said with a smile: "Grandpa Meng and Grandma Meng are good to me, Xiao Tao knows it, this thing is nothing." Grandma Meng can say okay, come to my house for dinner in a while, I see Dazhu playing outside, and I will bring it with me later. I'm going to go back to cooking first, remember to tell Grandpa Meng. ”

Dazhu is Meng Guochuan's grandson, Meng Chuntao met him when he came up on the road, and he also said hello to him.

"Cheng, then I'm not welcome, I'll come and try your craftsmanship in the evening. I'll come over and give you a hand in a moment, and we won't see anything between us. Meng Guochuan's daughter-in-law's eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, and her tone was sincere and natural.

Meng Chuntao didn't refuse, and left after a few simple greetings.

As soon as Meng Chuntao cooked, Meng Guoqiang came back, followed by Wang Dayu as usual.

"Comrade Wang Dayu, don't blame me for not reminding you, it's less than a month before the college entrance examination. If you don't pass the exam this time, don't blame me for not giving you face, looking for you for money! ”

Meng Chuntao was annoyed when she saw Wang Dayu, and couldn't help but show her killer feature.

Wang Dayu's face changed, and the smile on his face almost couldn't be maintained, "Xiao Tao, don't worry, I've been reading books well lately, I'm sure I'll be able to get in and pay you back." I'll come back when I'm admitted. ”

Dropping these words, Wang Dayu fled in a hurry.

He suddenly remembered that the last time he was asked for money in front of everyone, his face at that time was simply trampled on the ground and crushed, and now he remembered it and was afraid for a while.

No, he must be admitted to university!

Otherwise, you won't be able to go out in the village in the future!
