Lin Mucheng's eyes were red without warning.

God had mercy on her. When she was most desperate and helpless, Meng Haisheng finally helped her.

"Why are you crying?"

Meng Haisheng watched Lin Mucheng's tears falling down. He, who was always calm, was instantly confused.

Momo, who was sitting at the small dining table and preparing to eat, saw Lin Mucheng crying.

She stood up and threw herself into Lin Mucheng's arms.

"Mom, don't cry. Momo protects mom."

Momo's baby voice made Meng Haisheng, who was at a loss, freeze.

Momo was only a little over two years old. How could such a young child say such words to protect mom?

The days of quarrels in the past suddenly came to his mind.

He had made Lin Mucheng cry in a low voice countless times.

Thinking of this, Meng Haisheng stepped forward without hesitation and hugged Lin Mucheng and Momo tightly.

"Momo, Dad will protect you and Mom in the future."

Meng Haisheng's voice was also a little choked.

The next day, Meng Haisheng and Meng Daniu went to the mountain to dig Bupleurum again. In the afternoon, when the two went to see the rabbit trap, they caught two fat rabbits again.

When Meng Haisheng saw that this rattan rabbit trap was so useful, he added some more on the mountain.

He was going to Haiqing Town to sell cucumbers tomorrow, so he asked Meng Daniu to go to the mountain to see if he could catch more rabbits.

Tomorrow was not the big market in Haiqing Town, so Meng Haisheng only picked two full baskets of cucumbers and didn't bring more.

When he went to Haiqing Town, Meng Haisheng also took the wild rabbit with him.

As far as he knew, there were private restaurants in the town that would accept wild rabbits, and the price was two cents more expensive than pork.

He just wanted to try his luck. If it really worked, he would sell cucumbers in the future and bring some game. It wouldn't take long for his wallet to swell up.

This time when he went to Haiqing Town, Meng Haisheng did not use Uncle Meng's cart, but shamelessly asked his sister-in-law to borrow a Golden Deer brand bicycle.

This bicycle was also his sister-in-law's dowry, and she spent 115 yuan on the bicycle ticket at that time.

On their wedding day, the villagers looked at the bicycle with big red flowers, and I don't know how many girls envied it to death.

Such a rich dowry is not available in every family.

It's not easy to go to Haiqing Town. Meng Haisheng set off at dawn.

At this time, he didn't meet Luo Xiao who would take him a ride on the road. He relied on his two legs to pedal the bicycle to get to Haiqing Town.

When he arrived, the sun had just risen.

Haiqing Town is a big town around them, and there are several state-owned factories in the town.

Meng Haisheng rode his bicycle to the textile factory's family building.

The workers had just gotten up, and a long line had already formed in front of the stall selling fried dough sticks at the entrance of the family building.

Meng Haisheng cleared his throat and shouted loudly.

"Fresh cucumbers, 20 cents a pound, pick whatever you want."

The young man dressed neatly, with a clear voice and a smile on his face, was very attractive.

As he shouted, the uncles and aunts who were queuing to buy fried dough sticks asked him to push his bicycle over to have a look.

"Cucumbers sold at the market are only 10 cents or 15 cents, why are you selling them at 20 cents so expensive?"

"Auntie, look at how fresh my cucumbers are."

"Besides, the cucumbers sold at the market don't let you pick them, the quality of my own is good, you can pick whatever you want."

Meng Haisheng spoke in a set of words, making several aunts who wanted to buy cucumbers around him laugh.

While talking, Meng Haisheng picked up a cucumber and started to eat it directly.

The refreshing smell of cucumbers, accompanied by the sound of Meng Haisheng eating cucumbers in big mouthfuls, instantly touched everyone's heart.

This green cucumber looks delicious at first glance.

People who were queuing asked Meng Haisheng to help weigh the cucumbers.

There was an endless stream of people coming to buy fried dough sticks. Meng Haisheng took advantage of them and sold more than half a basket of cucumbers in a short time.

He was also a man who knew how to do things. When he was not busy, he also bought a pound of fried dough sticks.

The vendor who was originally selling fried dough sticks was a little reluctant to see Meng Haisheng selling cucumbers next to him.

Now that Meng Haisheng bought fried dough sticks, he couldn't say anything.

"Young man, give me another 5 pounds of cucumbers, I will send them to my daughter later."

The aunt who bought cucumbers from Meng Haisheng just now went home and came back.

It turned out that this aunt liked to eat cucumbers raw. After tasting them at home, she found that they tasted good, so she bought another bag to send to her daughter. Her baby daughter also loved to eat cucumbers raw.

When Meng Haisheng was weighing cucumbers for Aunt Zhang, he chatted with her casually.

"Aunt, your textile factory should have a lot of cloth coupons."

"People say that if you live by the mountains, you can eat by the mountains; if you live by the sea, you can eat by the sea. For those of us in the textile factory, the most we have is probably cloth coupons."When Meng Haisheng heard that there was a way, he lowered his voice and asked the aunt in front of him if she would sell cloth coupons when there were not many people around.

Strictly speaking, this thing must not be bought and sold casually, but no one would care if you came secretly.

"How much do you want?"

"Five feet will do."

"This little bit, wait."

The aunt hurried home and soon took out two five-foot cloth coupons for Meng Haisheng.

"Now everyone's life is good, and the cloth coupons in hand are useless, you can use them."

"Auntie, this is not good."

"It's okay."

Meng Haisheng didn't feel comfortable asking for people's cloth coupons for nothing, so he gave them some more cucumbers when he weighed the cucumbers.

The supply and marketing cooperative sold black and blue cloth, which was much cheaper than the market. When Meng Haisheng passed by, he pulled five feet for Grandma Meng to make clothes.

He glanced at the shelf and saw a piece of rouge red small checkered cotton cloth, and bought one for Lin Mucheng as well.

Lin Mucheng is only 22 years old, so he should wear brighter colors.

Meng Haisheng is sweet-mouthed and quick-witted. Although he was a little tired walking around the streets, he sold the cucumbers in the basket in no time.

He rode his bicycle and wandered around the main roads of the town to see if there were any private restaurants.

After a round, he found a new and inconspicuous restaurant on the street next to the town guesthouse.

However, this inconspicuousness was also the feeling of others. Meng Haisheng only looked at the location and knew that the background of the restaurant must be not simple.

He straightened his clothes and combed his messy hair, then rode his bicycle around to the back door of the restaurant.

The front door was for entertaining guests. Even if they wanted to collect game, it was not good to talk about business at the door.

It was mid-afternoon.

A man in white clothes and a chef's hat was squatting at the back door of the restaurant smoking.

Meng Haisheng very politely opened a pack of Ashima in his hand, handed over a cigarette and started a conversation.

"Brother, do you buy game in your restaurant?"

The man took the cigarette from Meng Haisong, put it under his nose and smelled it, but he couldn't bear to smoke it, so he put it on his ear.

"We do sell game in our store, but you have to ask the boss if he sells it. Wait here and I'll call him for you."

Meng Haisheng hurriedly thanked him politely.

After a while, a short and fat man came out of the house.

"You want to sell game?"

"Yes, what's your name, boss?"

"My last name is Wang."

When Meng Haisheng heard Wang Fusheng introduce himself like this, he thought that it seemed that his guess was not wrong at all, and the man in front of him must have some relationship with the town guesthouse.
