Chapter 266 Let’s arrange a marriage
When Liu Sanjin saw Shen Meng get off the ox cart, he threw away his crutches, pushed away the crowd, trotted over, and when he got to Shen Meng, he grabbed Shen Meng's hand.

"My dear daughter-in-law, you are really amazing. You have brought honor to our Lu family. Are you tired on the way back? Are you thirsty? Do you want some water? Come on, hurry home. Mother bought some meat today and will make you something delicious tonight. Let's go home, go home."

Shen Meng: “.”

Your expression changes so quickly. Before I saw me, my nose was not a nose and my face was not a face.

"Mom, my sister-in-law has been in a long meeting at work. She has no strength left. I need your help to walk."

"No, no, no, I'm not that delicate, I'm fine, I won't eat, I have things to do at home, it's so late, everyone should go about their own business!"

Even though Shen Meng was thick-skinned, she was embarrassed to face so many eager faces. It felt as if they were seeing themselves for the first time, and everything was so new and interesting.

Yu Xueli helped Shen Meng carry the bag and was speechless. The news of Shen Meng's foreign exchange creation had already spread in the village. How come it took so long for him to treat people like monkeys? Was his reaction time so long?
Wu Xianglan stood beside Shen Meng with her head held high, looking extremely arrogant, especially when she saw Lu Jiahe in the crowd. She glanced at him and snorted coldly. The latter shrank his neck and dared not say a word.

All the people present were the talkative ladies in the village. Liu Sanjin had a lot to say but he was almost pushed out before he could even finish his words.

"Xiao Meng, we only heard that you had done great things, but we didn't expect that you would be featured in the newspapers!"

"Yes, look at the beautiful photos in the newspaper. Shanghai also mentioned our Xiangyang Commune and Lujia Village. Our village is famous."

"Ever since Xiao Meng married me, I knew she was no ordinary person. See, I was right, wasn't I? I have always had good taste and never do anything empty."

"Zhenping is so lucky, but it's a pity that Xiaomeng is the only girl in her family. If she had a younger sister, the matchmaker would have trampled on her doorstep!"

"Ren Xiaomeng is not only a good daughter-in-law, but also a good mother. I think Mingyang and Mingliang are well-educated. My granddaughter is pretty and smart. How about we arrange a baby marriage? It doesn't matter if it's Mingyang or Mingliang. I'm not picky."

"What? You're not being picky. Your granddaughter looks like a black egg, and she wants to marry Mingyang Mingliang. Dream on. But my grandson is good. He's in the same class with Mingfang. He always praises Mingfang. You can tell at a glance that his heart is with Mingfang. They can get married in ten years. What do you think, Xiaomeng? When will you ask someone to calculate the date?"

Shen Meng's eyes widened. She had thought that someone would plead with her for a job as a worker in a hair flower factory, and she had also thought that someone would ask her for favors. But she had never imagined that someone would set their sights on a few tiny children. What kind of child marriage was this? It was a feudal dregs. Her child was still so young, how could she talk about engagement?

"Aunties, don't talk nonsense. Mingyang's kids are still so young. You can't bring them up like that. It will teach them bad things. Well, Xianglan, here are some newspapers. You can read them. I want to go home. I'm tired after a day's work. Shirley, help me go home quickly. I need to lie down and get better."

"Okay, okay, I'll support you, and let's go home quickly. Mingkai stands at the door every day waiting for you to get off work. He will be anxious if it's too late." Shen Meng and Yu Xueli supported each other and were about to move forward, but Liu Sanjin grabbed Shen Meng's clothes.

"Xiao Meng, did you remember what I told you? Come to my house for dinner tonight. I bought some special food and made delicious food for you. You have to go tonight. You have lost weight. I have to nourish you!"

"Mom, I won't go home to eat. If you miss me, just send me a bowl. I'm really tired and need to go home and rest."

Liu Sanjin looked at Shen Meng's refusal and cursed in her heart. Now that this matter had become famous, she became nervous. However, there were so many people here that she couldn't say much. She just nodded and said a few words of concern.

The others watched Shen Meng and Yu Xueli walking forward and wanted to follow them, but Wu Xianglan stretched out her arm to stop them. She had just been pinched by Yu Xueli, so she was considered smart for once.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't chase after my sister-in-law. You've seen that kind of person before. She's scared if you surround her like you're watching a play. You can ask me if you have any questions. I have a good relationship with my sister-in-law. I don't know anything about her. She loves me the most. Can't you see? It's me who goes to the county town to work with her. She always thinks of me when there are good things. I bought a lot of newspapers here. If you want to read them, I can give them to you. But they are borrowed and must be returned!"

Shen Meng and Yu Xueli trotted all the way to Xie Jinghao's door. They looked back with lingering fear, and when they saw that no one was chasing them, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh my god, old people are different. Not only do they talk a lot, but they also dare to touch me. Look at your hands, they are almost bald from being touched."

After hearing her words, Shen Meng rubbed her hands on her clothes somewhat unnaturally.

"Hurry up and take Xiaoya back. Close the doors and windows at night. Then go to your sister-in-law's house next door and tell her to send some things. Ask them to keep an eye on things so that Laizi won't cause any more trouble."

Yu Xueli sighed. Ever since she took Da Ya and Xiao Ya to the county town, Laizi brought Dezi to find her that same day. Naturally, there was no way they could fight over the love between husband and wife. He kicked Dezi twice, making her howl hard at the door, hoping she would soften her heart and come out to see the children. He was sure that Yu Xueli couldn't bear to see the children suffer. Since she could take such good care of the two girls, she must be more distressed about her son.

But I didn't expect that she closed the courtyard door tightly, and stayed in the house with the two maids, eating and drinking, without coming out to see anything.

Yu Xueli had given up on Dezi, but after all, he was her own flesh and blood. How could she not feel anything when she heard the child crying heart-wrenchingly outside!

Speaking of soft-hearted people, Daya was the first one. Hearing her brother crying, she was extremely sad, but she was sensible and didn't say anything soft in front of Yu Xueli. Even with tears in her eyes, she would eat a few more mouthfuls of rice. This was a small habit she developed when she was at Laizi's house. She would only do this when she was nervous.

Dezi had been gritting his teeth and trying not to cry before, but seeing that his mother and sisters really didn't come out, and that he was increasingly bullied in the village, he felt even more sad after he understood what was going on. Even with Laizi pulling him from behind, he didn't want to leave. A child without a mother can be bullied by anyone, and he blamed his parents and grandparents.
