On the way, Zhang Cuifen asked Mingming a lot of questions and was harsh to her. She also warned Mingming not to go with anyone except her father, mother, sister, and grandma.
It was obvious that I was wronged and cried for a while, but I nodded my head obediently.
When they got home, Zhang Cuifen and Ling Xiaowei were still a little worried. They were afraid of meeting Zhang Aimei or their aunt Ling Hua at the door. These two people were quite capable of making trouble. If they made trouble again, they would not eat dinner.
Fortunately, when we got home, it was quiet in front of and behind the house.
Zhang Cuifen parked the car, and the three of them entered the hut silently, opened the door, and Doudou rushed out of the house, jumping happily at Ling Xiaowei's feet.
As soon as the white woven lamp was turned on, the room was bright. Zhang Cuifen opened the lid of the pot and looked at the peanuts and water chestnuts that she had cooked in the pot before leaving. She shoveled a few out with a shovel, put them on the table, and said to Ling Xiaowei: "Try it.
Is this all done yet?"
"I want to eat too!" Mingming stood aside and said anxiously.
"Wait a minute, sister, I'll peel it off for you!" Ling Xiaowei blew on these. They had just come out of the pot and were still hot.
After it cooled down a bit, Ling Xiaowei peeled off a water chestnut, gave half to Mingming, and ate the other half herself. It was fragrant and tasted really good. "It's delicious!" Ling Xiaowei couldn't help but praise.
"As long as it's cooked, I'll pretend. The inner pot is boiling water chestnuts and chestnuts, and the outer pot is boiling peanuts. You can also try the peanuts to see if they're ready!" Zhang Cuifen said, filling a bowl with them.
Bowl of peanuts comes out.
Ling Xiaowei peeled one and ate it. It tasted better than any peanut she had ever eaten before. It was slightly salty and had the aroma of spices.
"These peanuts are suitable for drinking with wine." Ling Xiaowei joked.
"As long as the things are ready, I'll move the table, prepare the things, and pay homage to the moon. After the worship is over, we go to the factory to find your dad." Zhang Cuifen said while busy.
Ling Xiaowei ate peanuts and nodded in response. She couldn't do the work anymore, so she should just sit and eat obediently! These peanuts are so delicious.
Peel one for yourself and one for Mingming. After a while, the bottom of the bowl of peanuts will be gone.
Outside the house, Zhang Cuifen placed peanuts, chestnuts, water chestnuts, a plate of four-month cakes, a plate of apples, and a plate of grapes on a small table at the door.
Ling Xiaowei didn’t even know when she bought these grapes!
I was obviously very happy and curious. I didn't know what to do, but there were a lot of delicious food on the table.
"Sister, there are grapes!" Mingming held Ling Xiaowei's hand happily, like a greedy little cat.
Ling Xiaowei smiled and said in a low voice: "Let's wait and we can eat it in a while."
Zhang Cuifen took out the incense burner, lit three incense sticks, muttered some words, raised the incense and bowed to the moon, and then inserted the incense into the incense burner.
When the incense burns out, the Mid-Autumn Moon Ceremony is over.
The night was quiet, and the cries of the crickets hidden in the grass became louder and louder.
Zhang Cuifen went to the hut to cook dinner. The dinner was cooked and the incense in the incense burner was finished.
Ling Xiaowei is in the room, drawing with a drawing book. Now she has developed a habit of drawing. When there is no task, she will draw the beautiful things she has seen in her heart.
What she painted today was the beautiful scenery she saw on the island, including reeds, clear water, a small boat, and people fishing on the boat. She was going to finish the painting and give it to Grandpa Shi.
"Sister, it's gone, it's gone!" Ming Ming hurried into the house and pointed outside.
"What's gone?" Ling Xiaowei hurriedly walked out of the room and looked outside. It turned out that the incense had been burned out.
After the incense is burned, it's time to remove these.
Ling Xiaowei removed the incense burner first, then eagerly went up to pick up the grapes and asked, "Sister, I want to eat grapes."
"Well, take it to the hut and sit down to eat!" Ling Xiaowei took all the food to the hut.
In the hut, Zhang Cuifen put the cooked porridge into a pot and took them to the factory together.
After everything was packed up, Zhang Cuifen dragged out the tricycle and took Ling Xiaowei and Mingming to the factory.
When they arrived at the factory, their father was not there, probably still looking for Mingming outside. Zhang Cuifen opened the factory gate and asked Ling Xiaowei and Mingming to stay in the dormitory while she rode her bicycle to find Ling Guoqiang.
Ling Xiaowei found her father's radio, and she and Ming Ming listened to the program and ate. Ming Ming happily ate the grapes and didn't forget to give them to Ling Xiaowei.
"Dad, why hasn't mom come back yet?" Mingming looked outside from time to time and said.
"Come back soon!" Ling Xiaowei said.
I hope dad is not trapped by his uncle and the others. Grandma will probably have a hard time tonight, but it is not easy for her to get involved in this matter. This is a conflict between a mother and her children. She is the granddaughter.
, cannot interfere, and is not easy to interfere.
More than half an hour later, there was a sound outside the door. Obviously a little scared, he came closer to Ling Xiaowei and whispered: "Are mom and dad back?"
"Sister, go and have a look!" Ling Xiaowei said.
After saying that, she stood up and leaned against the window to look out. She had already closed the door from the inside. Even if a bad guy came, she should be able to deal with it for a while.
"Xiaowei, open the door, it's me and your dad!" Zhang Cuifen knocked on the door and shouted outside.
The person finally came back. Ling Xiaowei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly opened the door and let the person in.
Ling Guoqiang felt relieved when he saw that Mingming was fine. He walked to the bed and sat down. He stretched out his hand to Mingming and said, "Come here, let daddy hug you!"
Mingming happily rushed into Ling Guoqiang's arms, was very affectionate, and shouted affectionately: "Dad, I obviously miss you!"
"Dad also wants to know clearly." Ling Guoqiang said happily.
"You two, father and son, please stop being sticky and have dinner quickly! This porridge is almost cold." Zhang Cuifen brought bowls and chopsticks over and filled them with porridge. Each person had a bowl of vegetable porridge. It was neither thin nor thick, and it was delicious.
Everyone was also hungry, so they gathered around a small table and began to drink. After a bowl of porridge, they finally no longer felt empty in their stomachs.
Ling Xiaowei peeled the peanuts and said while eating, "Dad, has Auntie come to see you?"
Ling Guoqiang nodded and said, "I've been here, your aunt wants your cousin to come over and help."
"No!" Ling Xiaowei refused.
Zhang Cuifen didn't say anything, just peeling peanuts and water chestnuts for Mingming.
Ling Guoqiang sighed, "A big tree attracts the wind. Your aunt and your aunt will never let it go."
"Then let's hold off! Tomorrow, dad will tell the workers in the factory that if our factory wants to develop and grow, we can't let in the outsiders. The director of the factory is no exception. He also asked the people in the security department to keep a close eye on the door and let everyone else in.
No unrelated person is allowed in the factory except workers," Ling Xiaowei warned.
Father Ling also means the same thing, but this is not a long-term solution, "Xiaowei! This defense is not a solution!"
