Chapter 99, in full swing (please subscribe!)

"Well, I won more than 8 yuan."

When she saw the person she liked walking over, Meng Qing's face was filled with peach blossoms. After happily grabbing the zero ticket in her hand, she hurriedly stood up and pulled him to sit down.

With a smile on his face, he said: "Come on, I've been fighting for a whole day and my head is confused. You can do it for me."

There are many relatives in the living room on the second floor, including the eldest aunt, second aunt, sister-in-law of the Meng family, and a brother-in-law, all of whom are taking care of the family. There are at least 15 people in total. Fortunately, the living room is big enough, and even three tables of cards can be played.

Doesn't look crowded.

But at this time, everyone looked at Lu An in unison.

In other words, from the moment Meng Wenjie took Lu An to the second floor, everyone here stopped their movements in tacit agreement and looked at Lu An.

They had all heard about Lu An making money from painting, and because they were blood relatives of the Meng family, they knew the inside story better than the average person.

For example, they knew that Lu An sold 4 paintings and earned 60,000.

For example, they knew that Lu An had signed a contract with a large gallery and an auction house in Shanghai.

For example, auction houses and galleries give Lu An a basic salary of 2,000 yuan per month.

For example, they know that with Lu An signing a contract with the gallery, it is now a thing of the past to want to buy 15,000 paintings from him.

They were shocked when they first heard about it. Can they make money selling paintings? This has broken their imagination, and they earned 60,000 yuan in one fell swoop.

There are very few people here who have a deposit of more than 60,000 yuan. And even if they do, it is a shameful gray income, and they dare not speak out openly.

And when they learned that Lu An signed a contract with the gallery and received a fixed salary of 2,000, they became jealous and jealous.

After the jealousy and envy, they were deeply convinced. They just felt very awesome that an 18-year-old boy had achieved such astounding results in a field that was completely unfamiliar to them.

Almost all the elders in the living room knew that Meng Qingshui liked Lu An. After all, they moved around a lot on weekdays, so it was inevitable that they would find traces of it.

In the past, all three aunts secretly opposed it, thinking that Qingshui was in such good condition and so pretty, so she should wait until she finished her studies to find a better one.

For example, find a family that is involved in politics.

Since they are all members of the system, the three aunts also favor families within the system the most, and more or less look down upon families outside the system.

Their concept is that as long as they enter the system, they will have everything.

The three sisters-in-law strongly objected, and Li Meng knew about it, but she kept trying to calm him down, saying that the child was still too young and not to interfere too much, as long as it did not affect his studies.

Again, Li Meng likes this junior Lu An very much. Not only is he the only son of his good friend, but he also likes his appearance very much.

But now, when I heard that Lu An was a promising young man, and that Lu An had a great talent in painting, all three aunts, three uncles, brother-in-laws, and a bunch of cousins, etc.

They all looked at the passionate Meng Qingshui with different thoughts.

According to the local custom in Qianzhen, men like to type cards and women like to play poker.

Faced with so many people and Meng Qingshui's affectionate attitude, Lu An was unable to refuse, or it was difficult to refuse.

"It's only around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and dinner still takes two hours. Are you hungry?" Meng Qingshui sat next to him and asked him after reading the cards.

Foodie Lu was never unkind to himself when it came to eating, so he nodded immediately: "Well, I'm really hungry after traveling all the way."

Meng Qingshui stood up: "I'm going to get you a bowl of noodles. I have some beef at home that you like to eat. I'll fry a beef whistle for you."

Lu An looked up at her, feeling warm in her heart, and said yes, and said: "Fry an egg for me."

After five years, seeing that he finally no longer resisted her so much, Meng Qingshui's eyes almost dripped with affection, and she immediately entered the kitchen in high spirits.

Li Meng, who saw all this, also followed quietly into the kitchen.

After closing the kitchen door, Li Meng said to his little daughter who was washing the beef: "Go and wash some ginger and garlic. Mom will help you make it."

Meng Qingshui glanced at her mother sheepishly and asked worriedly: "Will he eat it?"

Li Meng immediately figured out the conflicting thoughts of his little daughter, and teased: "I don't like to cook normally, but now in order to please him, I know that my cooking skills are not good. You, you still have to learn more from your sister.

, your sister’s craftsmanship is now better than mom’s.”

The first half of the sentence made her blush.

But when she heard the second part of the sentence, it didn't sound right to her ears, and Meng Qingshui's little heart suddenly twisted.

Her sister's appearance was not inferior to hers, but because she was several years older, she was now at the peak of her charm. She never understood when Lu An transferred his feelings from her to her sister?

But she knows very well that her sister is now her biggest emotional "enemy".

Shuting, she can suppress it with a letter.

Li Rou, she is not afraid either.

But with her sister, she had already tried it several times, but Lu An refused to repent and simply turned from darkness to light. This made her very frustrated and aggrieved.

You are obviously in love with me, but you haven't said anything clearly about breaking up in these years. Why do you fall in love with your sister?

With mixed emotions, Meng Qingshui cut the ginger, washed the garlic sprouts, and then stood aside to watch her mother's operation carefully.

Seeing his daughter studying, Li Meng said: "Don't cut this kind of yellow beef too thick. If it is too thick, it will not be easy to fry, and it will be easy to burn, which will affect the taste.

For better flavor, it’s best to marinate it for 10 minutes, during which time you can use it to prepare side dishes.”

After completing a series of steps, the noodles are cooked, and the beef noodles are cooked over high heat for about 30 seconds. Then a bowl of fragrant beef noodles is put on the noodles, and the deliciousness is ready.

Seeing his daughter standing still, Li Meng asked while washing the pot: "Why don't you carry it away? If mom carries it, you won't be able to do anything."

Meng Qingshui took a look at this biological mother who was making fun of herself and said, "I want to fry an egg."

Li Meng put the washed pot on the stove, "You can make the eggs yourself. To capture a man's heart, you must first learn to capture his stomach."

I don’t know why, but every time Li Meng teases her little daughter emotionally, she feels particularly beautiful. This pleasant feeling almost makes her addicted.

For a child who grew up in a remote area like Shao City, Meng Qingshui's cooking skills were not as bad as Li Meng said. At least the eggs were fried golden on both sides and looked decent.

When the noodles came, I lowered my head and looked at the half bowl of beef whistle and the oily red soup. My mouth watered and my taste buds were excited.

When he ate one piece, it tasted surprisingly good. When he ate another piece, the taste was a bit beyond his imagination.

After eating some food for two lifetimes, he could immediately tell that something was wrong, but after taking a look at Qing Shui's tender face, he didn't intend to reveal it.

Instead, he handed her the playing cards in his hand and said, "You play a few games, and I'll take over after you finish eating."

"Okay." Meng Qingshui responded softly and reached out to take the card that was still warm.

The eldest aunt, second aunt, and younger uncle at the same table all watched the interaction between the two, as if they were watching a love TV show, without saying a word.

In the middle, Lu An suddenly asked her: "Where did Sister Qingchi go? Why didn't I see her?"

Hearing this, Meng Qingshui, who was playing cards, became nervous and almost dropped the cards in his hand on the table.

Fortunately, this was not the first time she had faced this situation. She had experience and calmed down her emotions before replying softly:

"Sister went to my uncle's house in Changshi to pay New Year greetings, and by the way, I stayed there until the exam was over."

Lu An had been observing her carefully, and he was relieved when he saw that she didn't fall out, but then he felt a little depressed.

Sister Qingchi just left like this?

You don’t even say hello to yourself. Are you hiding from yourself?

Is this to leave space for clear water?

Lu An thought to himself, it seems that the confession on the phone before the Chinese New Year completely frightened this girl. She felt sour for a moment.

Lu An took a bite of the egg and asked: "Which university did Sister Qingchi get a doctorate from?"

Meng Qingshui played a pair of Aces and answered him: "Hunan Medical College, Department of Internal Medicine."

Hearing this, he felt relieved.

Although Sister Qingchi took the Ph.D. exam a year early, her school has not changed and her major has not changed.

Speaking of which, the medical school was one of the first universities in the country to pilot doctoral programs in 1981. At that time, only 4 universities in Hunan had this qualification, including the National Defense University. You can imagine the high value of a doctorate from this medical school.

After dinner, Lu An said goodbye to the Meng family.

Since there were too many guests at home, there was no place to rest. Meng Zhenhai and Li Meng did not try to persuade him to stay, but just brought him a lot of novelty things.

Seeing Meng Qingshui reluctantly sending him to the gate, Lu An extended an invitation: "I want to go to my sister-in-law's place to pay New Year's greetings. Do you want to come with me?"

Meng Wenjie, who was smoking next to him, almost choked when he heard such strange words. Is this how the inviter invited me? Can he be sincere?

Sure enough, Meng Qingshui looked at him with resentful eyes and shook his head: "You go ahead, I won't go. Pay attention to safety on the road."

Meng Wenjie interjected: "Big brother drove him, little sister, you should tell me to pay attention to safety."

Being interrupted like this, Meng Qingshui's mood immediately improved a bit, and she said with a smile: "Brother, Lu An, have a safe trip."

This, this is hopeless.

Meng Wenjie raised his head and looked at the sky, feeling very disgusted that this little girl had completely stopped kissing him.

Sitting on the motorcycle, Lu An said to her: "I'm leaving. Let's go back to Baoqing together on the eighth day of the lunar month."

"good."
