Chapter 271 Calling Auntie

"Grandpa, is my aunt angry? I need to explain. Before, my aunt said she would send us off. This is too hasty. My uncle is still on a mission outside and hasn't come back yet."

"Calm down, your aunt and uncle are not that kind of people. They probably have something to give us."

After a while, Shen Meng came out holding a bundle. She looked at the grandfather and grandson and chuckled.

"I'm so sorry. I told Ah Man before that I would make you a set of clothes and make dumplings by myself when you and him return to Beijing. But I've been too busy recently, so I thought I'd buy you a set first. In case I don't have time to make them, my purchase would be a token of my appreciation. I can make dumplings by myself, and I've already made some. I'll put them in the pot soon. We can leave after we have a full meal. Ah Man, your and Uncle's clothes are here. I'll get you some hot water. You and Uncle can wash up and change your clothes. Then you can leave in a clean and neat manner."

Ah Man wiped away his tears and said with a forced smile: "Hey!"

He was surprised for a moment when he took it in his hand. He didn't expect that the clothes were so heavy. He looked at Shen Meng with some confusion. The latter just smiled and turned back to the house to get a clean towel and an enamel basin.

When the grandfather and grandson entered the house with the clothes, the three young men who were waiting outside followed them in.

"Mr. Chu, I'm really ashamed. We came here in such a hurry that we didn't even think of bringing clothes for you and Ah Heng."

"Nothing. Look, my daughter has prepared something for me. Hehe, the preparations are quite complete."

Towels, soap, razors, even vanishing cream and hair oil are available.

They were tidying themselves up in the main room while Shen Meng was making dumplings in the kitchen. After a while, Mingyang, Mingyang and Mingfang got home from school. Mingfang was still holding Mingkai's hand. The children went straight to the kitchen after entering the house. They looked at the person standing outside the main room and didn't recognize him. They were not sure whether he was a good person or a bad person, so they went straight to find Shen Meng.

"Don't be afraid. They are here to pick up your brother A-Man and grandfather. They will leave by car soon. Mingyang, come and help me to boil the pot. I will cook the dumplings so that we can send them off later."

"Good girl."

Mingyang took his schoolbag off his neck and threw it on the stool. He lit the pot while Mingliang and Mingfang washed their hands and helped Shen Meng make dumplings. The two children have been dexterous since they were young. Although the dumplings they made were a little ugly, they looked pretty good.

Three people were wrapping dumplings together, and their hands were very fast. After the pot was boiled, one tray of dumplings was put into the pot. They didn't stop and continued to wrap the second tray.

Old Man Chu and Chu Heng, also known as A-Man, changed their clothes, packed up, and stood in front of the three people looking brand new.

"Look at this girl. The clothes she prepared for my old man fit her so well. And these shoes are so comfortable!"

Chu Heng adjusted his coat. With such fine material and such good leather shoes, his aunt must have spent a lot of money on it. When he returned to Beijing, he would study hard, and when he was assigned a job in the future, he would give all the money he earned to his aunt.

"Ah Heng, help your aunt, no, your aunt, to clean up. Lin Xin, you brought me some things, give them to me. I'm going to adopt you as my goddaughter, so I have to give you a gift!"

"Hey, Mr. Chu, I'll get it right away!"

Shen Meng knew nothing about this. After she cooked two pots of dumplings, she served them all out. Five large bowls of dumplings were placed on the table. It was already getting a little dark. Mingliang ran over, took a match and lit the kerosene lamp. He looked at the different Chu Heng and Old Chu with his eyes wide open.

"Are you still my brother Aman and grandpa?"

"Hahahaha, you little brat, if I'm not your grandpa, then who is your grandpa? Isn't your brother A-Man standing right in front of you? Why are you so afraid to recognize him?"

Mingliang chuckled twice and walked around Chu Heng and Old Chu.

"When did my brother Aman become so handsome? Grandpa is also handsome, they are all handsome!" Chu Heng's ears turned red. He stretched out his hand to rub Mingliang's head, which made Mingliang's eyes red.

"Brother Aman, I, I can't bear to leave you. I just made dumplings for you. You have to eat more. When I grow up and become more educated, I will go to Beijing to find you. You can't forget me!"

Aman gathered his woolen coat and looked at Mingliang sadly.

"Brother will never forget Mingliang, and he will never forget how many times Mingliang slipped in the snow in order to bring food to brother."

Lu Mingliang said "Hi", tears streaming down his face, and patted Chu Heng's hand awkwardly.

"Look what are you saying? It makes me embarrassed. The ground is slippery, not my fault."

"Yes, it's not your fault."

Mingliang pouted, then suddenly hugged Chu Heng's waist and burst into tears.

Chu Heng almost cried out loud because of his crying. Old Chu turned his head away sadly. When he was going through the hardest times, he just wanted to leave and get away from here. But now that he has to leave, he is reluctant to do so.

Shen Meng brought over two more bowls of dumplings. Mingyang and Mingfang held two dipping sauces in their hands. Looking at the situation in the room, Shen Meng had no intention of scolding Mingliang. Children's feelings are sincere, extroverted and passionate. These are their own emotions and she can't control them.

Mingfang and Mingyang also had red eyes, and it seemed that they had cried.

"Uncle, A-Man, and these comrades, eat the dumplings while they're hot. I made the ones stuffed with cabbage, pork, and vermicelli. A-Man loves this the most. I also made some dipping sauce, you guys can try it too."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Mr. Chu and Chu Heng again. The two of them looked really different in their new clothes. They were indeed the strongest force helping the male and female protagonists in the later stages.

"Okay, okay, okay. Before I leave, I can still have a meal cooked by you. I have no regrets. You guys should sit down and try it. This girl is usually lazy. It's not easy for her to cook this meal. You have to finish it, otherwise she will be unhappy."

"Look at what you said. Although I don't cook often, I never forget you every time I make something delicious. It's a pity that Zhenping is not here and he couldn't see you off. Please don't remember his mistake!"

Old Chu glared at her and said, "Am I an unreasonable person? I know he is on a mission, so I won't blame him."

"Well, that's good."

He moved his chopsticks first, and then Lin Xin and others picked up their chopsticks. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that this fellow villager was really kind to Chu Heng and Mr. Chu. Look at the dumplings, with plenty of fillings and smooth and glutinous dumpling skins, all made of fine flour. They had never eaten so well when they went to Beijing.

After Mr. Chu finished a bowl of dumplings, Shen Meng quickly gave him half a bowl, and soon brought him a bowl of dumpling soup.

"The original soup turns into the original food. Drink some dumpling soup, eat well and return to the city without any worries."

"How can I not be worried? My daughter and grandson are both in Lujia Village. I am worried about them wherever I go!"

Shen Meng: “.”

Hmm? What daughter, what grandson? Why haven’t you mentioned them before? ? ?
