The Beauty of 1980's

Ch.71 Returning To The Village For New Year

The old lady's face turned red, and she kept saying "you" for a long time, but couldn't utter a word in reply. Finally, she hugged her bag tightly to her arms, turned her head away, and said nothing.

　　"Sister." Meng Jingfan secretly gave Meng Xiang a thumbs up, smiling so hard that his front teeth were exposed.

　　"I'm much better now. Put the lid on it and don't knock it over." Meng Xiang returned the cup lid to Meng Jingfan. Seeing that he was smiling happily, she couldn't help but let a faint smile spread across her lips. At the same time, she prayed silently in her heart that he should reach his destination quickly, otherwise she might "pass away" before the Spring Festival was over.

　　Although their relationship is not very good, they are his parents after all, and he can only go back to see them a few times a year, so Meng Wanjiang takes his wife and children back to his hometown a few days in advance every year to celebrate the New Year.

　　This year is no exception. If the road hadn't been blocked by heavy snow, we should have arrived yesterday.

　　"It wasn't like this when I came back last year. Why is it so serious this time?" Meng Jingfan closed the lid and couldn't help but mutter.

　　Hearing this, Meng Xiang looked away guiltily. Before this, she had never ridden a tractor, let alone ridden it on such a rugged and bumpy mountain road, so she was not used to it for a while and felt so uncomfortable.

　　Fortunately, perhaps God heard Meng Xiang’s prayers, and after crossing two hills, they finally arrived at Yunyao Village.

　　As soon as Meng Xiang got off the car, Meng Jingfan helped her to rest on a big rock nearby. She felt exhausted and dizzy. This feeling was worse than death. She bent down and rested her head on her knees, curling up together, thinking she would feel better this way.

　　"Brother, sister-in-law, you are finally back. We have been waiting here since early morning, afraid to miss you." A shrill scream rang out, and then a middle-aged man in a blue cotton-padded jacket rushed out from a nearby convenience store.

Following closely behind him was a young man who looked about the same age as Meng Jingfan.

　　"Wow, you brought back so many things? I'll help you." Meng Youcai had a friendly smile on his tanned face. If it weren't for the gleam in his eyes that was so bright, no one would have been able to tell what he was planning.

　　"Thank you, brother-in-law." Deng Yajun's heart and eyes were all on Meng Xiang at the moment. When someone helped her get things, she automatically ignored the other person's little thoughts. Anyway, these things were originally brought back for them. What difference did it make whether they gave them earlier or later?

　　"We are all family, why be polite?" Meng Youcai gave a look to his son Meng Huajun, who hurried forward to take the bag from Meng Jingfan's hand, but was dodged by him.

　　"No need, I can get it myself." Meng Jingfan's eyes were cold and he hid his bag behind him.

　　"Brother Jingfan, do you still remember it? Don't worry about it. It's not a big deal. Didn't I apologize?" Meng Huajun grinned, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

　　Ever since that incident, his parents have scolded him, saying that he has no sense of propriety and actually provoked Meng Jingfan, the only child of his uncle. What if he complains to his uncle every day and the relationship between the two families is cut off?

　　Now the family cannot do without the help of my uncle's family. I have to know how to read their expressions and try my best to please them to get some benefits. When I become successful in the future, I can do whatever he wants.
