Chapter 169   - Exquisite Mother and Child

There were barely any people in the neighborhood, so the car stopped in front of an old house according to He Mei Xin’s guidance.

After getting off the car, the driver took the shopping bag from the trunk. Luo Qing Yun asked: "Mei Xin, which floor do you live in? We’ll send you up. "

"No ..." "No need, my house is on the fifth floor, and there are no elevators. You guys rarely climb the stairs." He Mei Xin seemed to not want them to go up at all, and hurriedly waved his hands.

But the more she was like this, the more Luo Qing Yun was worried. She clearly remembered that Mei Xin’s husband said on the phone that if she was unable to get home within ten minutes, he would teach her a lesson.

Ten minutes had already passed, she was worried that that man would really do something that would be bad for Mei Xin.

If he followed her, then at least he would give more face to Mei Xin since there were guests at home, so it wouldn’t make things difficult for her.

"I’m already at your doorstep. Aren’t you going to invite me up for a cup of tea?" Luo Qing Yun looked at her with her bright eyes, not giving her any chance to reject.

He Mei Xin really did not know how to reject, and could only say: "My house is very messy, I am afraid I have neglected you."

"Mei Xin, you know I don’t care about this." Luo Qing Yun said, she extended his hand out and grabbed her arm, "Come, let’s go up."

There was no other way, He Mei Xin could only bring her upstairs, while the driver carried his shopping bag and followed behind.

Even if a normal person were to climb the stairs to the fifth floor, they would still feel tired, not to mention that He Mei Xin was a pregnant woman who was about to be pregnant.

Luo Qing Yun could not imagine how she managed to survive ten floors up and down by going out to buy vegetables and carrying such a heavy bag.

It wasn’t easy for him to get to the fifth floor. Luo Qing Yun was already exhausted, and fine beads of sweat had also appeared on her forehead.

Taking out the key, before the door opened, Luo Qing Yun heard a loud noise coming from inside the house.

"Mei Xin, you have a guest at home?" she asked curiously.

"There are two children at home. They are my husband’s brother’s children." As He Mei Xin said this, she opened the door. Just as the two entered, they saw a bunch of seven to eight year old devilish kids pouncing towards the door with toy guns in their hands.

If it wasn’t for Luo Qing Yun quickly pulling He Mei Xin away, the devilish brat would have directly bumped into her.

Seeing He Mei Xin, the devilish brat immediately shouted into the room, "Uncle, Aunt is back!"

Soon after, he saw a refined looking man around the age of thirty carrying a three or four year old girl in his hand as he walked out of the room.

"Didn’t I tell you to come back within ten minutes? How many ten minutes has it been? " The man cursed and roared.

When he saw that there were still two people standing beside He Mei Xin, the angry look on his face receded slightly. He placed the child in his hands on the ground and looked towards Luo Qing Yun and the driver, "Who are you two?"

"Zhenxiang, she’s my best friend, Luo Qing Yun." He Mei Xin hurriedly introduced.

Peng Zhen Xiang looked at Luo Qing Yun, and his eyes revealed a look of shock, then looked at the driver: "What about him? Your best friend? "I was wondering why you had to go out so early in the morning to buy groceries. It turns out you were carrying me on your back to meet your friends."

"No, this is Qingyun’s ..." He Mei Xin anxiously wanted to explain, but Luo Qing Yun interrupted her a step earlier, "This is my friend, why? I haven’t seen Mei Xin for a long time, but we’ve already arranged to meet today, so we’ve delayed for a bit. Are you going to get angry about this? "If that’s the case, then I’ll apologize first. It’s my fault, I won’t leave while pulling her along."

Hearing Luo Qing Yun’s words, Peng Zhen Xiang felt angry but also angry, so he said, "It’s not like I don’t want her to go out and meet his friends, but at least tell me beforehand."

"Sorry Zhenxiang, I won’t be like this ever again." He Mei Xin hurriedly apologized.

"Has he returned? "Hurry up and do the housework, the floor is dirty, do you want an old woman like me to do the work?" At this time, an old woman in her sixties came out from the second bedroom. She was fat, but her voice was loud and her tone was bad. It was as if she was throwing a tantrum.

Seeing the lady, Peng Zhen Xiang immediately went forward, "Mom, Mei Xin brought a friend back, please sit first, she’s going to work now."

When Luo Qing Yun heard this, the anger in her heart rose up sharply.

She turned her head and looked at He Mei Xin, and purposely said, "Mei Xin, didn’t you tell me earlier that you would accompany me out for lunch after putting down these dishes? Why do you have to do housework? "

He Mei Xin didn’t react in time, she only looked at her blankly. When did they set an appointment to go eat lunch?

Luo Qing Yun did not wait for He Mei Xin to react, and looked towards Peng Zhen Xiang: "Your name is Zhenxiang, right? I heard from Mei Xin that you have treated her well. Will you lend her to me for a few hours? "

Peng Zhen Xiang opened his mouth, but just as he was about to speak, the old lady beside him spoke out, "No, she went out to eat with you, who will cook for us?"

"This... Isn’t your son at home? I heard from Mei Xin that he knows how to cook. Do you also want to have a taste of your son’s cooking skills? " Luo Qing Yun blinked, and said deliberately.

"Why would I let my man cook and go out for a nice drink?" This won’t do, Mei Xin must stay at home, I still haven’t finished all these chores. " The Old Lady Peng had a straight face as he spoke in a rough voice.

Luo Qing Yun had thought that Mei Xin would not marry a good person, but she never thought that this family would actually be this good.

He had undisguised bullying of his pregnant daughter-in-law.

She didn’t know what Mei Xin’s parents would think in their hearts if they knew that their daughter was currently living this kind of life, but at this moment, her heart was truly very sad.

She was sad for Mei Xin, but she was also sad for the child in her stomach.

It would be strange if Mei Xin didn’t become depressed in the future if she lived in such a house.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed the anger in her heart and said to the old lady, "Then why don’t I invite your entire family out for a meal?"

When the old lady heard this, her expression immediately eased up. She wiggled her mouth and turned to look at her son, asking for his opinion.

In the end, Peng Zhen Xiang still wanted to show some face, and so he said, "How can I be embarrassed? With so many people in my family, you’re spending too much money."

"Since that’s the case, why don’t you treat me to a meal? I’m alone, my friend here isn’t with us." Luo Qing Yun rolled her beautiful big eyes and blurted out.

Hearing that, the old granny immediately jumped up and down, "That won’t do, our family is not rich, we just randomly go to a restaurant."

"In that case, I’ll treat you. You can eat wherever you want to, what do you think? " Luo Qing Yun said while beaming.

When the seven-year-old heard this, he immediately shouted happily, "I want to eat KFC!"

The three-year-old, hearing his brother’s words, followed his example. "KFC, KFC ..."

When the old lady heard this, she immediately reached out and slapped the seven-year-old on the head, "Idiot, what are you eating? That stuff is expensive and hard to eat. "

Then, he looked at Luo Qing Yun, "Logically speaking, you are a friend of my Mei Xin. When you came to my house, we should have been the ones to treat you. Seeing how well-dressed you are, you must be a very considerate person. You definitely won’t be able to eat at home. Since you said you wanted to treat us, then we won’t refuse. As for what we’re going to eat, just listen to my son. "

Peng Zhen Xiang could tell from his mother’s words that she wanted Luo Qing Yun to treat her to a meal. Although he also wanted to take advantage of her, but since the other side was a beauty and was afraid that they would look down on him, he pretended to be a big head. "Mom, they came to our house, so of course it’s to treat us. Go eat crabs. It’s the season for crabs to come out, so I’ll treat you, okay? "

"Stupid thing, do you have the money to treat me? The money for our new house has not yet been collected. In case this house keeps on going, do you want to live or not live in your new house? " When Old Lady Peng heard that his son wanted to treat him, he was immediately unhappy and cursed.

Luo Qing Yun could only roll her eyes in her heart.

Didn’t this old lady have high blood pressure? With such a temper, he was not afraid of getting sick from anger.

"Alright, alright. Since you said I’ll treat, I’ll treat you guys. You guys want to eat crabs, right? Then let’s go eat crabs. " He did not want to stay in the house for even a second longer, Luo Qing Yun only wanted to leave with He Mei Xin quickly.

"Crabs won’t work. My wife is pregnant, so she can’t eat crabs." Old Lady Peng quickly waved his hand.

Luo Qing Yun could not take it anymore, she opened her purse, took out all the cash from it and placed it on the table, "How about this, I will give you the money, whatever you want to eat, as for Mei Xin, lend me a few hours, after I finish bringing her for lunch, I will return her back, alright? As for the cleaning of the house, I think we should be able to get the hourly workers to clean up the money. "

After saying that, without waiting for the other party’s agreement, he pulled He Mei Xin and walked out.

Seeing that, Peng Zhen Xiang wanted to chase after them, but Old Lady Peng extended a hand out to stop him.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Peng Zhen Xiang looked at his mother in confusion.

Old Lady Peng’s eyes were fixated on the stack of cash on the table, "This must have a lot of money right? Since when did Mei Xin have such a rich friend? "

"I don’t know. I’ve never heard her say it before. I’ll go down and take a look first." Peng Zhen Xiang only wanted to find He Mei Xin quickly.

But Old Lady Peng was unwilling to let go, "Where are you going? Are you afraid that your wife will run away with someone? Put the money away, and I’ll go cook. Look at these two children. "

"Mom, why don’t we go out and eat?" Peng Zhen Xiang asked as he watched the old lady hold the money and count it in her hands before putting it back into her pocket.

"What’s the point of spending that money? We’ll make a meal at home and save the money. " Old Lady Peng’s face was full of calculations.

"What about hygiene? Will you invite me to your house to do it? " Peng Zhen Xiang asked again.

"Of course not, we can only do that after Mei Xin has finished her lunch." She couldn’t bear to waste the money and invite someone to the house to do the cleaning.
