Chapter 124: Returning to My Mother's Home on the New Year 2

Grandpa Liu stared at him with his eyes wide open. He said angrily, "Is this painting for you? I am giving it to my beloved granddaughter as a gift. When she grows up, I will leave it as her dowry. What does this have to do with you?"

Uncle Tang was speechless. He touched his head with embarrassment, turned around, and spread his hands helplessly to Tang Mei to show his powerlessness.

"I tried my best," said Uncle Tang with a wry smile.

Tang Mei nodded.

"Grandpa, your words are too precious. You should keep them for yourself. I'm just a child. If it is torn one day, it would be a huge loss," Tang Mei said gently.

After listening to Tang Mei's words, Uncle Liu admired him even more. Although he was still young, he already knew how to politely decline other people's gifts. This showed his good character and deep upbringing. He secretly rejoiced: Lin Lin's vision is indeed unique. He picked such a well-behaved and sensible child.

"If grandpa wants to give it to you, just accept it. If you don't accept it, you're not giving me face. Besides, look at my jar, there are still plenty of them." Grandpa Liu raised his head and looked nonchalant.

"My dear granddaughter, please listen to grandpa." Granny Liu looked at Tang Mei kindly.

At this moment, Tang Mei was a little at a loss, holding the painting in her hand as if she was holding a hot potato. After all, it was worth hundreds of thousands. In her previous life, she had never possessed so much wealth, and she was only a few years old in this life.

At this moment, Aunt Tang San, who was pregnant, also came out of the kitchen.

When she saw the painting in Tang Mei's hand, she smiled with satisfaction and said, "My father and mother still love me the most. Even my daughter is loved by them."

"You naughty girl, when you got married, your father said that he would give you many paintings as dowry, but you didn't want anything. Now he gives them to your daughter. If you refuse again, your mother will be angry with you." Granny Liu looked at her daughter and quickly helped her over and sat her on the stool.

"Mom, I didn't refuse. Just let my daughter take it home now." Aunt Tang San said, turning to Tang Mei and saying, "My daughter, keep it well. There are plenty of them at your grandparents' house."

When Tang Mei heard her mother say this, she had no choice but to hold the painting tightly in her hand.

"It's time for dinner," came my aunt's voice from the kitchen.

My second uncle and second aunt supported Grandpa Niu on the left and right, while Grandma Liu took Aunt Tang's hand and walked into the restaurant together.

The dining room in my grandpa's house is really big. There is a big round table in the middle that can seat more than ten or twenty people. There is nothing else except this round table. Tang Mei estimated that the dining room can accommodate two more big round tables, and it is still very spacious.

The table was filled with chicken, duck, fish and meat, each of which was delicious and fragrant. Tang Mei could not have imagined that in this era there would still be nine large bowls like those in later generations.

Soon, night fell. After the family enjoyed a sumptuous dinner, Tang Mei couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Why were there no children at her grandpa's house today?

At night, Tang Mei and Aunt Tang San slept side by side.

"Mom, the conditions at my grandparents' house are so great," Tang Mei couldn't contain her inner surprise and asked her mother. She was really shocked by what she saw today.

Aunt Tang Seng smiled slightly and slowly explained, "In fact, your grandpa's family background is not simple. My grandfather was a powerful figure in that era, but the situation was turbulent and wars broke out everywhere.

So, my grandfather resolutely decided to donate all the family property and took your grandfather to join the war. At that time, there was no choice but to go because the situation was very chaotic. If you didn't fight others, you would fight us. Later, when your uncle and others came, your grandfather also took them to the battlefield. After peace was restored,

Your two uncles and grandpa have all retired. Now, your eldest uncle is the captain of the Public Security Bureau in our county, and your second uncle is the captain of the security team in a steel plant in the county." Aunt Tang San said in a long tone.

Tang Mei was horrified and frightened when she heard this. She had never thought that her mother's family conditions were so good.

"Then how did you and dad end up marrying into the countryside?" Tang Mei couldn't help but be curious. One was a city girl, and the other was a country bumpkin. How did they get together?

Aunt Tang San smiled slightly and recalled the scene of that year

"In fact, it was fate. At that time, your third uncle was not from the same county as us. I don't know how he came to our county with the people from the supply and marketing cooperative.

At that time, your third uncle was about 16 or 17 years old, and he was also young and energetic. The society was particularly chaotic at that time. Your third uncle helped your eldest uncle catch the wanted criminal who was on the run. To thank him, your eldest uncle invited your third uncle to our house for dinner.

Who knew that your third uncle fell in love with me at first sight? I also admired him for being able to subdue criminals. Later, it was your eldest uncle who brought us together.

Your grandfather has also met your third uncle, and he told me several times that he thinks he is a reliable person.

During that time, your third uncle did not return to Jinshan Town and stayed with us the whole time. As time went by, our family became more and more familiar with him, and your grandfather arranged a marriage for us.

At that time, even in the city, food was scarce and life in the city was worse than in the countryside. Your third uncle was really amazing. He went everywhere to buy food.

And he brought most of the grain to our house. Although we eat a lot of royal food, we also have many children, so we also rely on your third uncle.

Our family survived that period, and the relationship between me and your third uncle improved, and I eventually married your third uncle."

After hearing this, Tang Mei exclaimed, "My dad is really awesome."

Aunt Tang San looked at the mischievous girl beside her and tapped her nose. "How old are you, little girl, and you're already concerned about me and your dad?"

Tang Mei blinked her eyes. "I'm just curious. Our house is so far away from grandma's house. You are so brave, mom."

"Your father has been very kind to me for so many years. I didn't give him a baby companion, and he never said anything about what would happen if I couldn't have one. Fortunately, he did. Now you have your younger brother or sister in your belly." Aunt Tang Seng sighed.

"Mom, why didn't I see the children from my uncle's family today?" Tang Mei asked curiously.

"Today, we came without telling your grandma in advance. Your cousin from your eldest uncle's family is already married. She probably came this morning. She probably didn't know we were coming today. She should have gone back to her husband's house in the afternoon.

Your cousin is in the army and can't come back easily. Your two cousins ​​from your second uncle's family are older than you and are both in high school now. They should be going to their grandmother's house today."

After saying that, Aunt Tang San gently straightened the quilt for Tang Mei and said, "Go to bed early. We will go back after lunch tomorrow."
