Soon someone came over, and it was not one person, but three people, two men and one woman. The woman was wearing a dark blue striped vest and a white shirt underneath.
Meng Qingxiao saw it from a distance and couldn't help laughing: "Oh, so many people are here."
Mengang explained: "The one on the left is the foreman, the one in the middle is our supervisor, and the girl is the housekeeper. They may have heard that you are coming, so they came here to have a look."
Next, there was another round of greetings. To Meng Qingxiao's surprise, the supervisor turned out to be his soldier, named Yang Song. He was from the Chaoyi Legion and was specially sent to defend Taihe Garden. He currently holds the rank of lieutenant.
Yang Song told Meng Qingxiao that being a security guard was not a popular job, but the battalion commander promised him that as long as he did well here, he would be promoted to captain when he returned.
Meng Qingxiao was eager to go home and didn't want to talk nonsense with him. He pointed at Tatila and said, "I want to go home and see this friend of mine..."
"Let it go." Yang Song ordered directly to the gate. Before Meng Qingxiao could finish his words, he knew that Meng Qingxiao's return was as fast as an arrow.
Meng Qingxiao thanked him and led Tatila in. Yang Song and the housekeeper were behind him. The housekeeper said: "Boss, please come to the property office later and I will record your face so that it will be easier for you to come in and out. "
"OK."
The gates and fences of the park are actually very short, less than one meter. They are just symbolic gateways and are not used to prevent thieves. In the era of universal evolution, even building a five-meter-high wall may not be able to stop humans. of crossing.
After entering, there is a pedestrian street more than fifty meters long. The street is very wide. There are two rows of antique-style buildings with rolled roofs on both sides. There are actually shops inside.
Across the street is the square. The height of Tatila is displayed here. It is difficult not to attract attention. Many children playing in the square stopped and looked over.
Mother Meng was also attracted. She looked over and met Meng Qingxiao's eyes. The old man was stunned for a moment. She thought she was dazzled. She hurriedly rubbed her eyes and realized that it was not dazzled.
Meng Qingxiao couldn't bear it any longer. He used his arrows to teleport and walked twenty meters away. In the blink of an eye, he came to Meng's mother's side. He choked and called "Mom" and knelt down on his knees.
Mother Meng couldn't believe it, and it took her a long time to react. Her eyes burst out of her eyes, she called Axiao, and then she hugged her son and burst into tears.
Dr. Meng Wen trotted over, stood behind Mother Meng, and rubbed his hands happily. Meng Qingxiao also called out: "Dad, I'm back."
There were many people in the square, and everyone wanted to gather around, but Yang Song stopped them all and told them not to get close for the time being. In such a touching scene, it would be better to reunite the family first.
It was not the time to talk outside, so Dr. Meng Wen patted his wife on the shoulder and said, "Let's go home first and talk about it when we get home."
Mother Meng also reacted, hurriedly pulled her son up from the ground, and said happily: "Let's go home."
At this moment, a little girl who looked like a porcelain doll ran over, looked up at Meng Qingxiao, and asked Mother Meng, "Grandma, who is this uncle?"
Mother Meng hurriedly picked up the child, pointed at Meng Qingxiao and said, "This is not uncle, this is dad. Don't you often look at dad's photos? Why did you forget it again?"
Meng Qingxiao stiffened and said in a trembling voice, "Who is she?"
"Her name is Lilan. She is the fifth child. She is a little naughty and troublemaker. She is completely opposite to her sister." Meng's mother said, waving behind her, "Xiaoqing, bring Yuan Zhi over here."
Meng’s mother asked Meng Qingxiao that this eldest sister, who was in her 40s, was called Fu Qing. She was the nanny hired by their family. She was very experienced in taking care of children and was also a leader in enlightenment education.
Dr. Meng Wen pointed to the two children and said: "These are all born to your wife. Caishi was already pregnant when you left, and they are twins. Now they will be 3 years old soon."
"Come, call daddy." Meng's mother hugged Meng Lilan and asked her to call daddy.
This little girl didn't recognize life at all, so she immediately called out: "Daddy."
"Hey!" Meng Qingxiao happily agreed, tears almost falling again. He reached out to take the child from Mother Meng's arms, then pointed at his face and said, "Come and kiss daddy."
Meng Lilan was unequivocal, she opened her mouth and bit, making Meng Qingxiao drool all over her face, but she was giggling.
At this time, the twin sister was also brought over. Mother Meng reached out to take it and introduced to Meng Qingxiao: "Her name is Meng Yunzhi, she is the elder sister."
"Yuan Zhi, this is dad, please call me dad."
The little girl was a little shy. Not only did she not scream, she immediately turned around and buried her face in Mother Meng's shoulder, not even daring to look at her.
Meng's mother explained: "My elder sister and younger sister have exactly opposite personalities. They are very introverted and easy to accept others."
Meng Qingxiao said softly: "Yuan Zhi, can you let daddy hug you?"
Meng's mother forced her into Meng Qingxiao's arms, but the little girl hugged her neck tightly and refused to let Meng Qingxiao hold her.
But how could she win over the two adults, and was finally put into Meng Qingxiao's arms. Meng Qingxiao held one in each hand, looking very enviable.
It's a pity that this situation did not last even for a second. Yuan Zhi burst into tears and struggled desperately to find her grandma. Meng Qingxiao was so frightened that she quickly handed it back.
There has been a saying in China since ancient times: "You are older when you are three years old, and you are older when you are seven years old." Meng Qingxiao also did not expect that the personalities of these two little girls would be so distinct.
"Sister is crying again, I'm so embarrassed." Lilan pressed her cheeks with both hands, made a face, and laughed at her sister.
Meng Qingxiao felt amused, "Why don't you cry?"
"I won't cry. Mom said, only the weak cry. I want to be a strong one!" Lilan waved her little fist, which was quite impressive.
“Lilan is awesome!”
The family went home. Although the second elder saw a man wrapped in sheets behind Meng Qingxiao, he did not rush to ask.
The houses in Taihe Garden are all antique courtyard-style buildings, with roofs made of rolling sheds. They range from small single-family houses to large courtyard houses.
The Qiang Han Kingdom allocates houses according to the number of people in each family and the contribution they make. If the contribution is not enough, you can also spend extra money to make up the difference to buy a larger yard.
The Meng family was so numerous that they occupied a courtyard all to themselves. The Meng family also made great contributions. Dr. Meng Wen and his son, plus Lu Caishi, were all important ministers of the country. Each one of them was qualified to live in Taihe Garden.
The courtyards of Taihe Garden are mainly built according to the terrain. Most of them are in the shape of "口", and a few are in the shape of "日" or "目". The gates are uniformly "Guangliang Gate", but it is simplified. For example, it represents the house. All the drum-bearing stones that symbolize the identity of the Lord have been cancelled, which is intended to tell everyone that all living beings in the neighborhood are equal and there is no hierarchy.
While they were still on the road, Meng's mother should have already called Lu Caishi, and Dr. Meng Wen called his daughter. His son was back. This was a big deal and it was necessary for the whole family to get together.
Meng Qingxiao was curious. It was a bit far from where they worked. Wouldn't it be a waste of time if they had to go home after get off work?
Dr. Meng Wen explained: "It's not that troublesome. There is now a maglev train between Tanggu Port and the capital, which runs once an hour. There is also a special train for work. It only takes more than 20 minutes to reach the capital."
"Nowadays, inter-city transportation becomes more convenient, but intra-city traffic is extremely congested." Dr. Meng Wen said with a smile.
When he finally got home, Meng Qingxiao had no worries anymore and finally asked Tatila to throw away the sheets. Then he briefly introduced Tatila to his second elder.
Because he had no friendship with him, Meng Qingxiao didn't understand Tatila at all. The reason why he brought her here with confidence was entirely because Tatila had saved his life before, and he had never experienced anything in this regard. It's a big loss, so I'm more willing to believe that Tatila doesn't have bad intentions.
Mother Meng wanted to know where Meng Qingxiao had been and what he had done over the years, but Dr. Meng Wen stopped her: "Let's talk about it together when the children come, otherwise we will have to ask him to say it again."
So the old couple took their son to visit their big house and explained each room one by one.
The Meng family chose a "Sun"-shaped courtyard with hanging flower doors and no back room. The whole family shared a large courtyard. The two elderly people lived in the main room, Meng Qingxiao and his wife lived in the west wing, and Meng Yuxin's family of three lived in the east wing. Cat and two people live in the west wing, and Zhang Xinyue lives in the east wing. If guests come, we will make arrangements according to the situation. Both the east wing and the reverse wing can be occupied.
Meng Qingxiao thought of Lu Caishi in World No. 118. Their family lived in a courtyard. He didn't know if Min Keyong in that world had found Lu Caishi. He hoped that they would eventually get married.
"How many children?"
"Go to school, today is Monday." Meng's mother said.
The old lady had countless things to say to her son. She and Meng Qingxiao talked about the changes that had taken place in the family in the past few years, as well as various family conflicts, and also talked about what happened at his father-in-law's home.
She mentioned Lu Zhanhao's son Lu Wangchuan, his sister Meng Yuxin's daughter Chen Yiyi, and Xu Haocun's son Xu Ao. Naturally, she also mentioned Su Chen and Bai Shudie. The couple got married last winter and lived in the same house. Next door to the Meng family, Shuhao Bai lives with him.
"The population is really booming." Meng Qingxiao smiled, feeling happy for such a change, and at the same time sighing inwardly. Once upon a time, he was just a child. He didn't expect that they would have so many children in the blink of an eye. .
Soon, family members arrived one after another. The first one to come was the Lu family’s mother and son. Because Lu Zhanhao’s son was only more than three months old, Lu’s mother gave up her job to look after the child at home. Lu Zhanhao happened to be at home as well. They had nothing to do. First of all, Came here.
Next up was Lu Caishi. The couple had just reconciled when they separated. Lu Caishi hadn't even completely forgiven Meng Qingxiao. But because of 98 Jiaang, Lu Caishi let go of everything.
When husband and wife meet, they each have a thousand things to say, but on this occasion, they can only choke in silence and hide under the quilt to talk again at night.
Next is Zhang Xinyue, she is still single, so she comes relatively quickly.
Meng Yuxin and Chen Cong also came, bringing the kitten with them. They wanted to get together before coming over, so they were a step late.
Su Chen and Bai Shudie also came, followed by Xu Haocun and Zhang Ying.
Today is the first day, only close relatives are entertained.
