Chapter 1941: Inquiry
June 18th is a Friday. The first and second grade students who returned to school after taking the college entrance examination finally ushered in the weekend after attending classes for more than ten consecutive days.
High schools in Fang County still start classes early at noon and finish classes early.
Li Xiaoyan and her fellow students rushed to the bus station to take the bus back to Jiudao. When they saw Zhou Tianqing in the bus, they pretended they didn't recognize him.
After a trip to the capital, which broadened her horizons, and with sister Le's instructions and guidance, Zhou Tianqing had a good attitude. Even if the Li family girl bragged in school, she wasn't angry, she just treated it as a joke.
Miss Li was afraid that she would reveal her lies, so she always avoided her and pretended not to know him at school or when riding in the car. Zhou Tianqing just smiled.
When the bus returned to the open-air parking lot on Jiudaoxiang Street, the sky was also gray.
Mrs. Meng was waiting to pick up her daughter at Xiang Street. When she saw Zhou Tianqing getting off the bus first, she called out to Zhou Tianqing.
As soon as she called Zhou Tianqing, Zhou Tianhong, who ran to Xiang Street to pick up her sister, rushed to the front door of the bus in two steps, grabbed her sister's backpack and carried it with her, which was a good thing.
Aunt Meng greeted her, Zhou Tianqing responded, and then spoke to her brother: "Tianhong, why did you suddenly come to pick me up today?"
Zhou Tianhong's face heated up slightly, and his smile was a little embarrassed: "It's late, a girl It's not safe for people to walk. Tianlan and I will take turns picking you up from now on. I'll finish my homework today and then I'll come.
Sister, let's go, grandma is waiting for us to go home for dinner."
"Okay." I heard my brother's caring words. , Zhou Tianqing felt warm in her heart, and almost knew the reason. It seemed that Sister Le had taught her well.
Sister Le taught Tianhong Tianlan that boys are not as delicate as girls in some aspects. Boys do not necessarily have to figure out girls’ thoughts and tolerate girls’ tempers at all times, but they must at least learn to love their brothers and sisters and be kind to others. Do unto others, do not impose on others.
With sister Le's teachings and the example of sister Leshan controlling her, Zhou Tianqing knew that Tianhong Tianlan had listened to sister Le's words and began to learn to take care of her sister. This was a good thing.
Zhou Tianqing felt warm in her heart, and walked with her younger brother to Plum Village. As they walked, she asked her younger brother whether he would be able to keep up with his studies after he came back from leave, and whether he would be struggling with his homework.
I took a week's leave, and normally I would have missed a lot of classes. Fortunately, Sister Youle in the capital supervised my studies. After Zhou Tianhong returned to school, he only made up for his ideological and moral character and Chinese language, so he did not find it difficult to study.
I don't know if she is overthinking it, but Mrs. Meng always feels that Zhou Tianqing and Zhou Tianhong are even colder towards her, and she can't figure out why. She waits for her daughter to get off the car and go home together.
In summer, the sun is strong during the day, and it gets cooler when it gets dark. Zhou Papi sat under the eaves to enjoy the cool air, chatting with a few people who had already had dinner.
When he saw his grandson picking up his granddaughter, he pretended not to see Mrs. Meng and her daughter who were a few steps behind her. He said to the person who was talking, "I'm going to eat, you guys sit down first." Then he went back to the house.
When Mrs. Meng saw Uncle Zhou Xialong, she originally wanted to shout, but when she saw Uncle Zhou Xialong, she turned around and went back to the house. She silently took back her words and turned to the village branch road leading to her home.
The mother and daughter had just walked to the fork in front of Village Chief Zhou's house. Village Chief Zhou happened to walk to the village branch road with a flashlight. Mrs. Meng quickly shouted: "Uncle Man, it's so late, where are you going?" Village Chief Zhou thought
. After going to the village, I showed Lejia the field water and wore waterproof high-top water shoes. Of course, they are not waterproof, but snake-proof.
Snakes are common in summer, so high-top water shoes are thick and it is not easy to be bitten if you step on a snake while wearing water shoes.
Seeing Mrs. Meng, Village Chief Zhou responded calmly and replied, "Let Lele's family see the field water." Without any unnecessary words, he ignored the mother and daughter and walked forward with his head held high.
When he first came back from the capital, he was very angry and wanted to catch Zhou Xialong and Aunt Meng to talk to him. Later, he talked to Zhou Papi and his wife, and Aunt Zhou Papi persuaded him. Duanwu Lele called him again and also persuaded him. After giving him a meal, he calmed down.
Although Zhou Xialong did not ask Mrs. Meng to lecture her, it did not mean that she did not care. Village chief Zhou did not want to see Miss Li who was different from her appearance, nor did he want to talk to Mrs. Meng and her daughter, so he took the lead and left in a huff.
Mrs. Meng was sure that Village Chief Zhou Bapi was getting less and less interested in seeing her. In the past, both Village Chief Zhou and Zhou Bapi always smiled when they saw her and often said hello to her because of their relationship with Zhou Xialong. Now, even if she says to her The two elders greeted each other, and the elders of the Zhou family were also indifferent.
As for the reason, Mrs. Meng really didn't understand. The only thing she could think of was that it might be related to the fact that many people said that Xiaoyan was promoting in school that she was Le's cousin.
But Xiaoyan said that she didn't publicize it intentionally.
Mrs. Meng didn't want to create a gap between mother and daughter, so she chose to believe her daughter rather than ask questions about the matter. When she saw Village Chief Zhou striding forward, she didn't follow him, and she fell behind with her daughter.
Village Chief Zhou left first, and Li Xiaoyan breathed a sigh of relief. If they left together, it would be bad if Village Chief Zhou asked something and she accidentally let it slip. No one asked herself, and the people in Mei Village didn't care about the school. No one knows what she does, which is safer.
When I walked to Lejia, I paid special attention and found that the door of the north building of Lejia was open and the lights were on.
Finally, she saw the Le's family opened the door. It was a rare opportunity. Li Xiaoyan wanted to go to the Le's family, but she was afraid of being discovered by her mother. She endured it and walked past the Le's building before asking, "Mom, are Aunt Zhou and the others back? "
Not yet. I heard that I have to accompany Miss Le to take her graduation photos before coming back." Mrs. Meng told the truth what she heard from the Zhou family's mother-in-law.
Li Xiaoyan was secretly happy that the Le family hadn't come back yet, so she looked for an opportunity to enter the Le family to get the key, and maybe she could find Le Yun's notes.
The daughter asked about the Le family and didn't ask anything else. Meng's wife didn't take the initiative to talk about the Le family. She took her daughter back to Zhou's house and rested for a while before having dinner.
After dinner, we enjoyed the cool air in the main room. Li Xiaoyan also accompanied her, diligently inquiring about the news, asking Grandma Zhou whether the air in the capital was good and whether there were many guests on Miss Le's birthday.
Miss Li became attentive to her again, and Grandma Zhou also guessed that she might have some crooked ideas, so she asked and answered questions in a calm tone.
Ask if the air is good?
It only took them one day to watch the flag-raising and climb the Great Wall, and then went to the grassland. They didn't feel how bad the air in the capital was. Anyway, the air in the paradise was very good, and the feeling of staying in the paradise was more comfortable than at home in Daimei Village.
Li Xiaoyan heard that there were eighty tables of guests for the Lejia girl's birthday. She took a deep breath and her voice changed: "Eight...eighty tables?"
Meng's wife was also shocked. She heard her mother-in-law say there were many guests, but she didn't ask the specific number. table.
"What's weird, because Xiao Lele didn't have a birthday party, and only went to some friends from the world. No dignitaries in the capital were invited, and those who wanted to go were dismissed. If Xiao Lele had a birthday party, There is no room for two hundred tables."
Grandma Zhou has seen the big world and is becoming more and more calm and dignified.
Brother Zhou also clicked his tongue when he heard this: "My dear, little Lele's relationship with people is so generous." "
No, Lele received the invitation to invite her to dinner in a box, so Lele said... For my first birthday, a group of foreigners flew in a private plane to deliver gifts, and they brought seven or eight cars of birthday gifts, which was really scary."
Grandma Zhou's mood improved when she talked about Xiao Lele.
"There are so many gifts, Miss Le can't even open them." Mrs. Meng was frightened and used a cart to pull the gifts, how rich they would be.
"Lele didn't have time to open the gifts. The ones given by domestic friends were thrown in a room without looking at them. Some of the gifts given by foreigners were kept in the villa, and some were handed over to her bodyguards to transport and preserve them. She accompanied us on the trip. , we are back, Lele is going to the hospital to help people treat their illnesses." "If you don't
open it for so long, if there is anything to eat, it will be damaged." "
It is said that those people gave gifts of gold, silver, jewelry, and antiques. Everything is worth over 100,000 yuan at least. If anyone wants to give a red envelope or get some ordinary gifts, the owner himself will be embarrassed to step into the door of Lele Villa." Sister-in-law Li Xiaoyan was stunned. It is not good to give gifts less than 100,000 yuan
. How high must the threshold be to enter?
After being stunned, Li Xiaoyan kept asking a hundred thousand questions, including whether Miss Le's villa was beautiful, where it was located, and where she had traveled.
Grandma Zhou responded calmly. Miss Li asked Xiao Lele what the specific location of the villa was. She just said one thing - I don't know, and there was no address written on the wall, so who knows where it is.
Ask what is in the villa. In addition to houses and flowers, what else can be found in the villa?
You can tell where you traveled.
Grandma Zhou knew what she shouldn't say, so she just said a few general words and the insignificant details. If she didn't say anything, Sister Meng would think that she looked down on people and ignored her girl.
Li Xiaoyan heard that Leyun took everyone in the Zhou family to climb the Great Wall to travel to the grassland. Not counting gas expenses, one person spent tens of thousands of travel expenses. On an outsider, but not taking her there.
Feeling angry and not letting the Zhou family see it, Li Xiaoyan endured it, asked a lot of questions, and found out what she wanted to know. After talking for a while, she excused herself to do homework and went back to her room on the third floor.
Miss Li asked a bunch of questions and then left with an excuse. Her intention was obvious. Grandma Zhou knew it tacitly. No wonder before she came back, Lele said that the Miss Li family would definitely inquire about the news and maybe ask them for their mobile phone to see photos or something. , let Tianqing sister and brother take care of their mobile phones and don't steal pictures from others at will.
The girl from the Li family also asked similar questions, saying that the scenery of the Great Wall on the grassland must be beautiful. Hearing that she didn’t take any photos, she asked Zhou Tianqing if he had taken any photos.
After listening to it, I knew that the girl from the Li family might have wanted to take photos and make some articles out of them.
Grandma Zhou guessed that the girl from the Li family would definitely go to Zhou Tianqing tomorrow, and she was not worried that Zhou Tianqing would be fooled. Lele asked Tianqing, Tianhong Tianlan not to spread the photos taken in the park, and their siblings would take care of their mobile phones.
There was no worry in her heart, and Grandma Zhou didn't care about her son's relationship with Sister Meng. After a while, she went back to the room to watch TV.
Brother Zhou and Sister Meng also went back to the living room to watch TV and rest.
