Chapter 31 First Time

After returning home in the afternoon, Meng Wanqiu went to her room to sleep. Meng's mother hadn't seen her daughter all night and wanted to chat with her, but she could only say "lazy cat". Pei Xingzhi shook his head helplessly and took the things he bought at the supply and marketing cooperative off the ox cart.

Seeing so many things, Meng's mother's eyes widened, she was stunned for a while, and then slapped her thigh: "I'm going to die, why did you buy so many things?" Then she looked at her good son-in-law Pei Xingzhi: "Xingzhi, tell me, did that damn girl Meng Wanqiu buy them?"

Without waiting for Pei Xingzhi to answer, she put her hands on her waist and went inside to find Meng Wanqiu, cursing as she walked: "The damn girl, you have become more and more rampant recently. You went to the county town, and you want to bring the entire supply and marketing cooperative home..."

Pei Xingzhi was dumbfounded, and instantly understood why Meng Wanqiu went into the room as soon as she came back.

Looking at Meng's mother's red face due to anger, Pei Xingzhi lowered his head and laughed, he really couldn't understand why there was a girl like Meng Wanqiu in the world.

Funny as it is, Meng Wanqiu is someone he cares about, so Pei Xingzhi must protect her.

"Mom, you misunderstood. It wasn't Xiaowan who bought it, it was me." Pei Xingzhi held Meng's mother's wrist and pulled her to sit down in the yard. "Xiaowan went there for the first time. Where did she see these things? I wanted to buy them."

Mother Meng was angry, but she couldn't take it out on her son-in-law. "Xingzhi, don't hide for that stinky girl. She is my daughter. How could I not know her? She has never seen her before. Her curiosity is heavier than that silly roe deer."

Mother Meng's heart was bleeding. Looking at the things on the ground, her head was dizzy. It didn't take much thought to know that these must have cost a lot of money and bills. This was more extravagant than their family's New Year celebrations. Meng Wanqiu, this prodigal son, dared to hide in the room and couldn't come out.

Humph, you can't escape the fifteenth day.

Meng's mother glared at Meng Wanqiu's room, and then said to Pei Xingzhi: "Xingzhi, Meng Wanqiu doesn't know how to live, you can't get used to her, and you will keep all your money and bills in the future. Otherwise, one day she will see some new things and squander your little belongings sooner or later."

Pei Xingzhi touched his nose. All the savings of his and Meng Wanqiu's small family have been placed on him. When they got married, Meng Wanqiu said that she didn't know how to manage the household, and gave the money to Pei Xingzhi to manage.

At first, Pei Xingzhi still had a cold heart, thinking that he must not let Meng Wanqiu squander the family.

But now, seeing Meng Wanqiu's eyes light up at things that he had long taken for granted, and thinking of her having been locked up at home for more than ten years, Pei Xingzhi couldn't help but soften his heart.

But Pei Xingzhi didn't want to say these things, he nodded to Meng's mother and assured her: "Don't worry, mother, I know what's going on."

Mother Meng smiled, and her anger finally subsided. The thing that made her most satisfied this year was having Pei Xingzhi as her son-in-law.

Pei Xingzhi always did things properly, and Meng's mother didn't doubt him, "That's good, you can handle these things, I won't interfere with your things."

"Look at what you said, of course you can take care of Xiaowan and me." Pei Xingzhi said disapprovingly, and handed the things he bought for Meng's mother and father to Meng's mother to handle, such as daily necessities for the whole family, tooth powder, soap and so on.
