Wake up suddenly, back to the time when my wife and daughter had an accident

Meng Haisheng was very skillful at work. Although it was his first time to cut bamboo strips, he got the hang of it very quickly. After cutting more than a dozen strips, he was able to cut bamboo strips faster.

He cut quickly, and Uncle Meng was also able to weave katydid cages quickly.

The thin bamboo strips seemed to come alive in Uncle Meng's hands. He quickly weaved through the layers and weaved a surface in a short time.

It was getting dark, and Uncle Meng had woven two square katydid cages for Meng Haisheng.

Meng Haisheng was very surprised.

"Grandpa, your skills are still as good as they were back then."

"You are so shameless, you little brat. When you were a kid, I wove you katydid cages worth at least 80 if not 100, but none of them lasted. They were all broken after playing with them for a day or two."

When Uncle Meng mentioned Meng Haisheng's childhood, he had a lot to say.

The two chatted for a while, and Meng Haisheng weighed the katydid cage in his hand and smiled very happily.

"Grandpa, do you want to earn some money for drinking?"

"Hurry up and tell me."

"I will take people to the mountain to dig earthworms in a few days. I will definitely use a lot of these katydid cages at that time. How about you weave one and I will give you 2 yuan."

"In the future, the villagers will follow me to the mountain to dig earthworms. At that time, there will definitely be a lot of people buying your katydid cages."

Mr. Meng has no sons, and his daughters are married. He is old and has no source of income. It is undoubtedly a good thing for Meng Haisheng to ask him to weave a katydid cage.

"How can a katydid cage be worth 2 yuan? Even if you don't pay, Grandpa can still help you weave it."

Even if Mr. Meng is short of money and lives a hard life, he is embarrassed to ask Meng Haisheng for money.

2 yuan, you can buy a big piece of meat.

"Grandpa, I remember all your kindness to me. Let's make it a deal."

Meng Haisheng didn't wait for Grandpa Meng to refuse, and walked away quickly with the katydid cage.

Countless lessons in his previous life made Meng Haisheng understand a truth: it is better to teach a man how to fish than to give him a fish.

He remembered all the kindness that Grandpa Meng had shown him, and he would naturally repay this favor.

He would rather buy a katydid cage from him for 2 yuan each, and would not give money to Grandpa Meng for nothing.

The human heart cannot stand the test.

Meng Haisheng prevented some bad things from happening from the beginning, so as not to make himself uncomfortable.

In the evening, Meng Haisheng called Meng Hailian and Meng Daniu to talk about the earthworm.

"You guys take two more fertilizer bags tomorrow, and we'll catch earthworms for the whole morning."

"That's great. All the bupleurums in the mountains around our village have been dug up. I was thinking about going to the mountains tomorrow, so we don't have to go that far."

Meng Hailian was relieved when he heard that he didn't have to go deep into the mountains tomorrow.

Now the amount of bupleurums dug is half of what it used to be, and the distance he walks every day is twice as much as before.

My legs will break after walking all day.

It would be different if we went to the mountains to dig earthworms. We could find earthworms by just finding a pine forest in the nearby mountains and digging up the rotten leaf litter.

"I don't know if digging earthworms can make more money than digging bupleurums. Let's try it tomorrow."

Meng Haisheng didn't dare to say too much, so as not to give the two too much hope.

In the end, everyone felt bad.

"As long as it's about right, it's fine. Going to the mountains to dig Bupleurum is too tiring, much more tiring than the busy farming season."

Meng Hailian was really scared. With such high-intensity labor, he was afraid that he would collapse before the end of the month.

"Brother, you don't have enough physical strength. You should learn this from Brother Daniu."

"Go away. You don't have enough physical strength. If the policy didn't allow it, I would have wanted to have a third child."

"Momo from your family is so cute. If I could have a little daughter as cute as Momo, my life would be complete."

Momo is usually well-behaved. Even if she goes out to play on the street for a day, her clothes won't get dirty.

Unlike the two brats in his family, let alone a day, it's good if their clothes don't get torn after going out for half a day.

When Momo was mentioned, Meng Haisheng couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

His daughter is naturally the best.

In the evening, after discussing with Meng Hailian and Meng Daniu where to go the next day, Meng Haisheng went home.

It was past 9 o'clock in the evening, and there were not many people enjoying the cool air on the street.

Everyone was busy digging Bupleurum, and they were exhausted. Even though it was hot, they all rested early.

Meng Haisheng turned a corner and entered his own alley.

A person suddenly flashed out in the dark alley, and Meng Haisheng was startled.

"Haisheng, it's me."

Lang Chen walked out of the darkness.

He lowered his voice very low, for fear that others would hear it.

Meng Haisheng's home and Meng Changxi's home were very close.

The two stood in the alley and talked, and Meng Changxi could hear them in his yard.

"Follow me."

Meng Haisheng took Lang Chen with him.Lang Chen walked in the dark alley, and after many turns, he came to an abandoned old house.

"Did you find anything?"

Meng Haisheng didn't waste time talking to him and went straight to the point.

"Meng Changxi went to the town middle school this morning. He went to a teacher's office in the school and made a phone call for a long time."

Meng Haisheng nodded slightly, and he said that there must be a connection between Meng Changxi and Meng Changyue.

But he didn't expect Meng Changyue to be so capable that he could help Meng Changxi borrow the phone number of the town middle school.

"What did they say on the phone?"

Meng Haisheng looked at Lang Chen anxiously.

"I don't know who is on the other end of the phone, I just heard Meng Changxi calling me brother."

"Ask Meng Changxi to see if your wife has a heart-shaped pendant on her. They said that this thing is a token of their love, and asked Meng Changxi to get it back for him."

"I guess your wife's former lover came to ask for it after knowing that your wife is married."

Meng Haisheng slapped Lang Chen on the head.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Just keep all these words to yourself."

"Will I continue to follow Meng Changxi in the future?"

Lang Chen asked uncertainly, covering his head.

"Don't follow me these days. I'll tell you if there's anything like this later."

Meng Haisheng ignored Lang Chen and turned to go home.

He kept thinking about what Lang Chen had just said.

He and Lin Muching had been married for such a long time, and he had never seen Lin Muching wearing any necklace. How did Meng Changyue know?

After returning home, Meng Haisheng was entangled for a moment, and stopped thinking about it. Instead, he asked Lin Muching directly.

"Mucheng, I remember you had a silver necklace before? Why don't you wear it?"

Meng Haisheng pretended to talk to Lin Muching casually.

Lin Muching, who was folding clothes, was obviously stunned for a moment.

She lowered her head slightly and didn't speak for a long time.

Seeing him like this, Meng Haisheng was even more suspicious. Lin Muching must be hiding something from him.

"Mucheng, look at me."

Meng Haisheng stepped forward and put his arm around Lin Mucheng's shoulders, looking into her eyes very seriously.

"Why do I feel like you are hiding something from me?"

Lin Mucheng's heart was pounding as Meng Haisheng looked at her, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't know where to start.
