Chapter 100
The Zhao family's New Year's Eve dinner was still full of excitement. Last year, the old man's only daughter, Lan Yujie's mother, lived in the Lan's house. They were a family every year. This time, they dragged the family back to Zhao's house.
The newlyweds, Lan Yujie, didn't come with her, but she thought, but she is a new wife after all, so she has to spend the first year at Wu's house.Zhao Lingyu gave red envelopes to the big and the small ones, and got a few more. The old man gave back double copies, and it goes without saying who the other one is for.
Zhao Lingyu returned him to the old man and asked him to deliver it himself.
The old man was still losing his temper at the moment, but he opened his mouth again on the first day of the new year, for no other reason, the eldest grandson was quick, and on the first day of the new year, he abducted his precious daughter-in-law home to celebrate the new year.
Meng Chilang didn't know it at first, but Zhao Lingyu came to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the Lunar New Year, as in previous years.The Meng family is not going well this year, and it is impossible to leave the two elders alone in the nursing home for the New Year, but they bring home two big Buddhas. He also pointed to Meng Hui's comeback.
But Mr. Chi was not happy. Since he was paralyzed in bed and had to rely on a wheelchair to travel, his temper became more and more irritable, and Mrs. Chi had a hard time this year.
Compared with the old man, she was silent most of the time, but she pointed out her daughter's mistakes several times when she spoke.
Chi Jingshu has been kept at home by Meng Hui for decades, and their family is no better than ordinary rich and noble families. They think it is not enough to invite three or five people, so they point out others to serve as masters.Their family has always been managed by the husband and wife themselves, just like cooking a meal by themselves without using other people's hands.
But Chi Jingshu's hands are more white, tender and fresh than ordinary rich wives.
It is said that to see if a woman is doing well, one can tell by looking at her hands. Naturally, Chi Jingshu is doing well and is happier than ordinary people.For the trivial matters at home, Meng Hui was diligent and consistent for decades, and he was not willing to let Chi Jingshu suffer a little bit of hardship.
Back then when his wife eloped with him, even if there was something wrong with the young lady of the big family, she never treated her badly materially.Therefore, I suffered a lot with him in the first two years.
Meng Hui kept it in his heart and felt that he owed it. Later, when Meng Chilang was born, his wife suffered a great crime when she was pregnant with her son. It's embarrassing, but he almost passed out when the doctor hugged the bloody new life.
From then on, no matter how the elders of the Meng family persuaded him, he was determined not to let Chi Jingshu have a second child, and it would be better for Chi Jingshu.His wife gave him the most precious treasure in his life, and he felt that he couldn't afford it no matter what he did.
For so many years, even if there was a little awkwardness at the beginning, Chi Jingshu accepted it very well. Not to mention him, even Meng Hui himself and Meng Chilang, who had been familiar with it since childhood, didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
But in the eyes of the old man, it is not the case.
In fact, the old man is biased towards his daughter in his heart. She married and became a wife. After so many years of hard work, the hardships of being a wife, a wife and a mother, I have also accumulated a lot of experience, so seeing her daughter so arrogant, I am afraid that the Meng family will catch her. It's hard for her to talk.
So when I saw her, I couldn't bear to mention her.
The most important thing about being a wife is to know what is cold and what is hot, and to take care of the housework. How can there be a reason for her husband to wait on her when he comes back from busy digging money? Is this plausible?If someone else finds out about it, they might have to spread some ugly words.
It is not easy for the couple to talk to the old man, but in Meng Hui they still go their own way and don't give his wife a chance to do anything, at most they just help in the kitchen.
Seeing that she didn't listen to persuasion, the old man couldn't bear to teach his daughter any more, but he couldn't help but sighed and worried.
The atmosphere at home was really unbearable, so when Zhao Lingyu proposed to take Meng Chilang out to meet friends, Meng's father and mother happily let him go.
Zhao Lingyu got two more red envelopes from Meng's house, one was given by Meng's father and mother, and the other was prepared by Mr. Chi in a hurry, and the weight was not light.
Finally, in the car, Meng Chilang handed over a red envelope.
The red envelope obviously came from home, with a picture of a child wearing a bellyband, a koi carp, and a gilded peony flower on it.It was very thin, but Zhao Lingyu stared at it for three seconds without reaching out to take it.
"Take it, it's false for you to think that I came to this world a few days earlier than you."
It turned out that Zhao Lingyu was taught.
He took the red envelope and took out another red envelope from the small box in the car.
"Why did you give it back to me?" Meng Chilang said, seeing that he said that he wanted to give it without sincerity, he easily accepted the reason, happily took the heavy red envelope, opened it, and saw it A stack of red bills.
"Tsk, isn't that too creative?"
Zhao Lingyu was opening the red envelope that Meng Chilang thought was full of creativity. Inside was a passbook and a foreign card.
Seeing him stunned, Meng Chilang smiled and said, "Take it easy, this is all my belongings."
give me?
"Yeah." Meng Chilang smiled hippie, "I'm touched." Before the words fell to the ground, he went on to say: "Didn't you plan to make some investment recently, and my mother urged me to start the foundation together? Don't think I don't know you. Hey, the money in the bank is not just for those capitalists to speculate, but if you keep it here, it's not a matter of making money every minute!"
As he spoke, he showed a smug look on his face.
When Zhao Lingyu arrived home, the smile on his face still couldn't stop.Meng Chilang was not in such a good mood.
"I...Damn, didn't you say that!" He didn't say anything, he went out to meet friends, the hell, he actually believed it naively, thinking that he was eating, drinking, corrupting with Bai Chengan and others, and he was sent to the Zhao family. !
What can I do now, the New Year's gift he carefully prepared was given to the old man years ago, where did he get the present at this moment? Come to meet people!
Looking at the famous cars for a walk in the yard, Meng Chilang was too guilty to step out of the car door.
"Why don't you take me to the shopping mall first?" Meng Chilang discussed, holding the doorknob tightly.
Zhao Lingyu still had that unaffected smiling face, touched his face, and said: It's all right, I'm ready.
The things were all in the trunk of the car. Meng Chilang saw him take out more than a dozen bags in one go, and thought to himself, is this wholesale or wholesale.
It's hard for him to think so thoughtfully!
Meng Chilang gritted his teeth silently for a while, and consciously reached out to pick up the bag, but Zhao Lingyu only took one bag for him, and led the people home.
Uncle Dong saw it first and said, "Master Ling Yu is back, hey! Master Meng is also here, come in quickly, come in quickly."
This sound attracted the old man who was teasing his great-grandson.
The whole family looked at it like this, forcing Meng Chilang back a step.Zhao Lingyu handed the pile to Uncle Dong, and went over to pat Meng Chilang's stiff back. Meng Chilang gave him a hateful look, turned his head, and a flower grew on his face, holding the only bag in his hand , walked up to the old man and said, "Grandpa, happy new year."
"Okay, okay!" The old man's repeated words were not enough, and he stretched out his hand to lead the person to sit next to him. It was originally the seat where Mrs. Zhao used to sit. After the old lady passed away, this seat was only occupied by Zhao Lingyu and the others. A great-grandchild who was not yet ten years old did it. Let him sit like this at this time, the face of the whole family is a little ugly.
This person's surname is Meng, and Ling Yu brought him home... Thinking of how many rumors they have heard these days, everyone has different expressions.
The old man still thinks it's not enough, "It's good that people come, and bring some gifts. You child, you are still being messed around by that bastard Ling Yu. It's so cold outside, look at your hands are frozen."
This is completely nonsense, Meng Chilang's hands are cold, it is all due to cold sweat.
Knowing that he was fidgeting, the old man turned his head and yelled loudly: "Old Dong, what are you doing, bring Mengmeng a bowl of hot tea. Hey, don't take the bird's nest from the kitchen. The kid doesn't like it. Just something lighter. Warm the stomach, Meng Meng has a weak stomach."
Xiao Meng is so affectionate, he has learned all the nicknames spoken by his grandson.
Meng Chilang's face was red and white, and the old man had just finished speaking when someone came out from the kitchen, and it was Zhao Lingyu.
Meng Chilang didn't know what to say anymore, he stood up in embarrassment, at a loss for a while, the curious or shocked eyes of the Zhao family fell on his body like needles, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Zhao Lingyu calmly led him a few steps away from the old man, and sat down in an empty seat.
When he saw Meng Chilang eating with his head down and covering his ears with his hands, he was really frightened, the skin of his tentacles was so cold.Meng Chilang was startled suddenly, he opened his eyelids and stared at him, the man who was stared at laughed, took the tasteless hot soup in his hand, and pointed to the nearest middle-aged man to introduce Dao: This is my uncle, who teaches archeology and history at the university.
Meng Chilang's face turned red, and he didn't know how to speak for a moment. Ying Jie, who had been left out for a long time, said, "Uncle, this is Meng Chilang."
Besides, I didn't repeat a word, not to mention Uncle Zhao, but everyone here understood.
His uncle was gentle and elegant, hehe smiled and took out a red envelope, thinking to himself that fortunately there are more children in the family and he prepared more red envelopes, otherwise he really doesn't know how to resolve the embarrassment at this time.
Seeing that Meng Chilang was even more nervous than him, Uncle Zhao, who knew the robber-like style of his nephew and the old man well, knew that this kid probably didn't know about it before, and smiled at Meng Chilang, who was in a bit of an abrupt situation. He became more and more amiable, "Xiao Meng, come on, take this, the uncle hasn't prepared any presents for the first time I saw you, I will make up for it next time, you won't blame uncle, will you?"
Meng Chilang quickly said no, thanked him and called uncle weakly.
It's not that he has no confidence, it's just too embarrassing. He was a bit reserved in front of his elders. At this time, he really showed his tactfulness and insisted on the principle of saying more, making mistakes and saying less mistakes. Then Zhao Lingyu pointed out He yelled at anyone, and his heart, which was slowly stalling, returned to normal.
A group of ignorant children, in the dignified atmosphere that the parents couldn't hide, all kept quiet and didn't dare to say anything. When Meng Chilang finished seeing him, the old man fixed his eyes on Meng Chilang and wouldn't move away. Chenchen called over.Before he could speak, Chenchen could no longer hide her words, and whispered into the old man's ear and asked, "Grandpa, who is he?"
"This one is your uncle's partner. You should call him aunt."
"Auntie?" The child repeated softly, looking at Meng Chilang suspiciously, and then at his mother, his little face was extremely troubled for a moment.
Meng Chilang's hard-earned psychological construction collapsed in an instant, and he was left in a mess in the storm in his heart.Ying Jie's voice trembled a little too rarely, I don't know if it was a smothered smile or a complicated one: "It's uncle."
Chenchen looked over, looked at Zhao Lingyu: "Uncle?" then looked at Meng Chilang: "Uncle?"Chenchen's mother really wanted to bring her son back to her side, the old man is abducting a material child, what a shame!
However, she didn't dare to speak justice at this moment, so she listened to the old man coaxing him kindly: "It's also right to be called uncle, does Chenchen like this uncle?"
The little boy twitched a little, then whispered in his ear, "I like it, the new uncle looks better than my mother."
The old man was overjoyed: "That's great. Didn't Chenchen bring a lot of chocolates today, and your new uncle likes them too."
"Really?" The little boy was happy, and ran up to Meng Chilang, spread his palms and said, "Uncle, do you want to eat? I still have a lot. What kind of food do you like? I'll find it." .”
"This one is very good." Meng Chilang squatted down. He liked this child very much and felt kind to him. Chenchen peeled off a piece for him and handed it over, saying, "Eat it, uncle. Mom said eating too many teeth." There will be worms in it, and you can only eat one."
Meng Chilang was about to be coaxed by this child.
Seeing him eating candy, the little boy seemed to have completed the ceremony of establishing diplomatic relations, and excitedly took Meng Chilang's hand and ran towards the crowd of children.
As if offering a treasure: "This is my new uncle."
"Uncle." "Uncle." The sound of baby's voice repeated.
"No, Xiaoxin wants to call uncle, start over."
"Why, I'm going to call Uncle, Uncle!"
"No! You call me uncle and uncle, and you call new uncle also uncle!"
"I do not want."
The two children argued so righteously that in the end the little girl cried, "Mom Chenchen bullied me." Meng Chilang was so frightened that he quickly hugged the little lady with astonishing lung capacity, and coaxed and coaxed her Only then stopped.
Facts have proved that good looks are a bonus everywhere.
Meng Chilang quickly got along with the children, until it was time to eat, he was still clinging to him, and was finally taken away by his parents, his little eyes were still full of attachment.
Meng Chilang's face was covered with sweat, he was really afraid of these children, he was terribly energetic, Zhao Lingyu wiped his sweat for him, and looked at him jokingly, which made Meng Chilang roll his eyes.
Leaning close to his ear, he gritted his teeth and said, "Wait for me, go home and deal with you!"
This move is really good enough for him to cut first and then play!Almost scared him to death.
And at this moment, his father walked out of the room with his mother, who had a lunch break all afternoon, in his arms.
