Chapter 26
"I just met the girl today for the first time. This is a formal purchase, go and go, and move the fish into the kitchen quickly."

This was the first time Brother Rui asked him to help.

Everything he does now is for Brother Rui's sake.

Otherwise, even if she looks as beautiful as a movie star, that's none of his business.

……

Ning Meng didn't expect to meet a big customer today who sold out all the fish early.

While it was still early, she decided to walk around the farmer's market to see if she could buy something to go back.

The boss saved her last night, so she can't really just give someone two crucian carps and a few pieces of tofu, and that counts as repaying her life-saving grace, right?
Ning Meng went around and bought two packs of white sugar cakes that people use as gifts nowadays, and two cans of malted milk, and then she didn't know what to buy.

When passing by the meat stall, her mind suddenly moved.

Today's rural people don't have enough fat in their stomachs. When visiting relatives and friends, cutting off a catty or two of meat is a very decent gift.

So, she cut another two catties of pork.

Just after receiving the meat from the boss, Ning Meng suddenly heard someone calling her: "Ning Shuisheng's daughter?"

Ning Meng froze for a moment, then looked up.

I recognized this tall, thin, middle-aged woman with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and a sarcastic expression, as Aunt Yang from the same village.

Ning Meng didn't like this Aunt Yang.

This Aunt Yang is a well-known gossip woman in the village.

I like to gossip about people, and I also like to make a fuss about nothing.

The rumors that harmed Ning Meng's whole life in her previous life naturally couldn't do without her help.

But when Ning Meng goes out to do business, she pays attention to making money with harmony.

Even if she didn't like Aunt Yang anymore, she still greeted him politely: "Auntie, you're going to the county too!"

"Oh, it's really you!"

Aunt Yang smiled cheerfully, with triangular eyes, she kept looking at Ning Meng's basket tied behind the bicycle.

Finding that the basket was covered with a tarpaulin, she couldn't see what was inside, and stared at the flesh in Ning Meng's hand with a bit of eagerness.

"Xiaoni Ning, you bought so much meat today, do you want to honor your parents?"

To die!
This prodigal bitch!
Actually cut such a big piece of pork.

At least five or six dollars, right?
Ning Shuisheng, that lonely ghost, is he willing to pay so much money for meat?
Ning Meng didn't want to answer her very much. With a perfunctory smile on her face, she replied casually: "Ah, yes, yes."

Then, he found a reason at random, and left on his bicycle.

Aunt Yang looked at Ning Meng's back on the bicycle without looking back, and her teeth itched with hatred.

She even lowered her face and came over to strike up a conversation, this little bitch from the Ning family didn't know whether to ask her if she wanted to drop by and drive her back.

If she didn't think it was too tiring to walk home, would she deliberately strike up a conversation with this little *slut*?

Really ignorant!

No manners at all.

Aunt Yang was so angry that she didn't care about the things she didn't buy.

Holding a small basket, he hurried to Xiaogang Village.

She planned to file a complaint with Ning Shuisheng and his wife as soon as she got home, and let them punish Ning Meng, this annoying little slut.

Ning Meng didn't know anything about it.

Even if she lived a new life, she would never have imagined that some people's hearts are inherently dark.

Obviously he wanted someone to help, but he didn't say it clearly.

She also expects others to guess her mind with empathy.

Where did the face come from?

***
Xiangyang Village is next to Xiaogang Village.

The two villages live next to each other.

Ning Meng only knew that the boss was from Xiangyang Village, but she didn't know where his home was.

She rode a bicycle to Xiangyang Village, and saw a group of children playing with jumping stones under the big banyan tree at the head of the village.

Looking around, he didn't see any adults around, so he waved to the children.

Ning Meng is a fresh face, and she is also surprisingly beautiful.

Without Ning Meng making a sound, all the children surrounded her with a whoosh.

The leading child asked curiously: "Beautiful sister, who are you looking for in our village?"

Ning Meng took the opportunity to say: "That's right, my sister came here to find someone."

As she spoke, she took out a few pieces of halva from her pocket and handed them to the children.

——Ning Meng bought these crisp candies on a whim.

She was afraid that the boss's family would have children, so she bought some on purpose.

No, it just came in handy.

Ning Meng then asked them: "Can you tell my sister where Qi Rui's house is?"

Hawthorn is very attractive to children.

These children are all five or six years old, born in the 80s when the problem of food and clothing was just solved.

In rural areas, some children may not be able to eat a few pieces of candy throughout the year.

Seeing the crispy candy in Ning Meng's hand, she swallowed hard.

But when they heard that they were inquiring about Qi Rui, they all seemed to have hit a ghost.

"Ah! She's looking for all the ruffians! Run!"

They didn't even want sugar anymore, they yelled and yelled, and they all ran away in a swarm.

Ning Meng: "..."

She knew that the boss had a bad reputation in the village.

But never expected that the big brother's reputation is so powerful that even the children in the village are scared to run away when they hear about it.

Just when Ning Meng was helpless, a pair of feet wearing calico shoes suddenly appeared in front of her.

She looked up and saw a thin woman standing in front of her holding a handful of firewood.

The woman is about five or sixty years old, with wrinkles on her face that have experienced vicissitudes of life, and no expression can be seen on her dull face.

He only stared at her with a pair of dark eyes.

Ning Meng didn't know why, so she hesitated for a moment, and when she was about to ask a question, the woman had already said: "Follow me, I will take you to Qi Rui's house."

After finishing speaking, she hugged the firewood and walked forward first.

Ning Meng was too embarrassed to ride a bike when he was walking.

She pushed the bicycle and followed behind the woman, wanting to talk to her without saying a word.

I want to know the situation of the big brother's house.

It's a pity that this woman is a boring gourd.

No matter what Ning Meng said, she didn't answer.

If she hadn't spoken just now, Ning Meng would have wondered if she was dumb.

Ning Meng talked too much by herself, and she was a little embarrassed, afraid that she would be too noisy.

It made the other party dissatisfied and stopped leading her.

He had no choice but to keep his mouth shut, push the bicycle, and silently follow behind the woman with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

The boss's home seems to be quite far from the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village.

The people on the side of the road gradually thinned out, and it became more and more desolate as we walked.

We are almost at the other end of the deserted hillside.

The woman's footsteps did not mean to stop.

Ning Meng couldn't help but muttered suspiciously, "His house is in the mountains, right?"

"Then are you still going?"

The woman didn't make a sound along the way, but now she made a sound suddenly, which startled Ning Meng.

Seeing the woman with a stiff face, holding firewood on a small slope, looking down at her, Ning Meng replied repeatedly: "Go, of course!"
