After looking back, Zhen Zhen talked about this to Meng Hua: “Your sister-in-law can’t make any mistakes in doing things. She kept muttering that she would let you have a good meal before you leave. I thought about it and just eat dumplings. Your sister-in-law made dumplings delicious. You can’t eat the taste of your hometown even if you go to Beijing.”
No matter how delicious the dishes outside are, they are not as good as their hometown. Otherwise, how can they taste like their hometown?
Meng Hua knew what he meant, and this was reminding him not to forget his roots.
It is said that the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. Jiao Huilan, the eldest sister-in-law, has no idea about him after she got married. One day there is something delicious at home, if he is not at home, the eldest sister-in-law would rather not eat it himself than leave him one.
My mother wants him to remember his sister-in-law’s good life. In the future, his uncle will have to give back a lot of money if he has the ability.
“I will remember how kind my sister-in-law is to me.”
Zhen Zhen felt at a glance, so he felt relieved and gave him all the prepared school supplies.
Meng Hua didn’t expect that his mother had prepared so much secretly. Although she looked so strict with him, she loved him very much. He knew that he was going to study in the capital, so he must have been thinking about him behind his back. He really felt sorry for his parents in the world.
After he left home to study, my mother must not think that he couldn’t sleep.
Meng Hua went out to study and his neighbors also sent some things one after another.
There are eggs, notebooks, ink, and vegetables, and Zhang Cuihua has unique ideas and knitted a pair of half-gloves for him.
Zhen Zhen proposed a revision and asked her to knit a lid with wool on the back of her hand, so that she could cover it on her hand when she was afraid of the cold, and it would warm up with a small button.
Zhang Cuihua muttered to her face, saying that you are picky about giving gifts, and that the only one in the world, Zhen Guizhi, can do such a thing, but she cursed and took the gloves back to process them, and the next day she sent the new gloves.
Brother Zhen and Mrs. Zhen also rode a bicycle and brought a pen and a box of ink.
Meng Hua: “Thank you, my second uncle.”
Brother Zhen is an old teacher. The pens he chose are the best. Meng Hua dipped them in ink and wrote a few words on the paper. It was indeed very smooth and he had thought about it.
Brother Zhen was unhappy, “It’s too unfamiliar to say thank you for your uncle.”
“I should thank you. It’s not a bad thing to let the child learn to be grateful.” Zhen Zhen said.
Meng Hua is going to college, and Brother Zhen is happier than anyone else. He has always hoped that the Zhen family can produce a college student. Although Meng Hua’s surname is Meng, he is also his nephew. His nephew is doing well and his uncle’s face is also shining.
Others from the Zhen family were not so happy.
Brother Zhen and Mrs. Zhen heard the news early in the morning and told Mrs. Zhen when they got home. Mrs. Zhen naturally couldn’t be happy. Meng HuakeShe is a grandson, and she is an outsider with different surnames. Only when Zhen Dabao can get into college will she be really happy.
“那小蹄子有什么好事也不知道想着娘家,要不是我家大宝年纪还小,我非要叫她推荐大宝。”
甄大嫂虽然疼这个孙子,却也知道孙子不是这块料。
“早知道孟华能上大学,咱们就不和小姑子闹那么僵了,听说老二一家都去了呢。”
“提那杀千刀的干嘛,我算是白生了这两人。”
不过孟家人都觉得挺光荣的,张巧红和周淑芬也都送了点实用的小东西来,价格不贵,心意到了就行。
孟大嫂送了条棉裤过来,是按照孟华的尺寸做的,她心灵手巧,裤子样式虽然不洋气,但裤筒不宽大,比普通棉裤显瘦,孟华竟然收下了。
Zhen Zhen talked to her about Meng Li again.
Mrs. Meng said: “It’s a blessing that you are for her. People heard that Zhou Changsheng is so kind, and there are hospital examination certificates. Many people want to match Meng Li. However, the conditions are not very good. One of them has a dead wife, the other is an old bachelor with 28, and the other has a wretch on his face. I don’t even think of Meng Li.”
Is it a wretch who is old bachelor with 28? I don’t even think of her.”
Is it a wretch who can also do lasers in later generations, but in this era, the conditions are indeed not good, and Zhen Zhen shook his head when he heard it.
“不急,头一次就是太心急,没了解清楚就结婚了,这次一定要让孟丽擦亮眼睛。”
孟大嫂直说当初该听甄臻的,迟几个月再结婚,不过现在说那些已经晚了。
When Meng Li came back on the weekend, she came to see Zhen Zhen. She was quite polite and brought a bag of peach pastry to Zhen Zhen.
“Did that Jiang Dongping contact you?”
Meng Li said with a red face:
“We have been talking a lot from all over the world. We don’t know if we don’t know. After chatting, we found that both of us want to buy a big house.”
Zhen Zhen didn’t expect that she still had this ambition. Nowadays, houses are scarce items, mainly distributed. Many employees of the unit are crowded in a narrow tube building, waiting for the unit to allocate a big house for the rest of their lives, but the house is not so easy to get.
There are indicators for dividing houses. People with relationships are always ahead. Ordinary people can only wait for the rest. Some families have not waited for a big house from the marriage of their grandfather to the marriage of their grandson.
Housing is tight, even if men rarely buy houses and get married, let alone girls.
After all, the times are different, and they cannot be compared with the concepts of later generations.
“Auntie, I underestimated you. Is it easy to buy a house in the county?”
“It’s not easy, but if you have a small house, you can add some money.Change a big house with someone and buy a house through replacement. “
“That’s fine. No matter when, we Chinese people value houses. By the way, what does that Jiang Dongping mean?” Zhen Zhen asked.
