In the 1970s, I became the vicious female supporting role in the period novels

Chapter 362 Not Everyone Wants to Save Face

When there were only Bai Shuyu, Lu Zhenping and Shen Meng in the ward, it was quiet for a while. Without Bai Yan to mediate, the three of them didn't know what to say.

Bai Shuyu looked at Lu Zhenping and then at Shen Meng. After hesitating for a while, she turned her gaze back to Shen Meng.

"Xiao Meng, take a look at the gift and see if you like it. My body is not good enough, so I asked Nian Nian to pick it out especially for you. The red envelope is 10,000 yuan, one in a million, it's a good omen."

"This is too much. Zhenping and I have been married for so many years. Just a token of our appreciation is enough."

"How can this be possible? This is a token of my love. You and Zhenping are going to be married for ten years, so it's only right that I pay for it. Just take it!"

Shen Meng smiled and thought to herself that she would use the money she had earned to buy a yard in Beijing and register it under Lu Mingkai's name, and then she would consider it as if it was bought by her grandmother.

She opened the gift box, and inside was a gold necklace with a peony flower. The small label said 30 grams. She also opened the red envelope and took a look, but her brows furrowed and disappeared in a flash. However, Lu Zhenping had been watching her and still noticed it.

"how"

"It's very beautiful. I like it very much. Thank you. Zhenping, do you think this necklace is beautiful?"

"Well, I'm glad you like it. Thank you, Ms. Bai, but this is too expensive. And this red envelope, Shen Meng and I didn't come to Beijing for this. We were only entrusted by Commander Bai to come and see you. You should take these back!"

As soon as Lu Zhenping finished speaking, Bai Shuyu burst into tears.

Shen Meng: “.”

Lu Zhenping: “.”

I didn’t say anything, why did I suddenly burst into tears, the tears flowed so fast, I was not prepared!!!
Shen Meng looked at the apples in the fruit basket. She put the gifts and red envelopes in her hand on the table, then stood up with a fruit plate and two apples. After all, they were mother and son, so they could say whatever they wanted and she didn't want to get involved.

"You chat with Zhenping for a while. I'll go wash some fruit and come back soon."

Lu Zhenping wanted to take it, but Shen Meng held his shoulders and he sat down again.

Just kidding, she didn't want to be in this awkward atmosphere with Bai Shuyu.

After going out, he went straight to the bathroom. After washing the apple, he sat directly on the lounge chair at the door. He took a knife and peeled the apple bit by bit. After peeling the apple, he cut it into small pieces and put the apple peel in the trash can at the door.

"You've put so much thought into this. Although my mother is old, she's still innocent. You've seen the red envelopes and gifts she gave you. Aren't you extremely happy? Actually, I don't think you're worthy of my brother Zhenping. He's so outstanding and capable. So many people in the army like him and pursue him, but he's always been dismissive. If it weren't for Mingyang's children to adopt, he wouldn't have married a woman casually. What do you have? A country woman with no experience or dignity. You show up with a bunch of old men every day, and you're just embarrassing brother Zhenping. If you hadn't tied him up with those little beasts all these years, brother Zhenping would have come to Shangjing long ago and would have had a different world. Shen Meng, if I were you, I would never be so shameless as to follow you to Shangjing. It's really too cheap."

Shen Meng: “.”

Do I give you the face to teach me a lesson?
"Don't look at me like that. You are acting like this just to please my mother and consolidate your position. What about supporting the economy of a county and graduating from college? Aren't they all because of Brother Zhenping's face? What a pity. I won't let you succeed if I'm here. You vixen, don't even think about entering my Yuan family."

"Idiot!" Shen Meng said, then picked up the cut apple from the plate and stuffed it into her mouth, biting it with a crunchy sound.

Yuan Niannian listened to her words, opened her eyes wide in disbelief, and then chuckled.

"As expected, he is from a small place and has no manners!"

"Snapped!"

Shen Meng rubbed his wrist, and this time he used all his strength without showing any mercy.

"Cluck, cluck, you are born in the year of the Rooster, you are about to bury your eggs, what's going on? You keep clucking. Even if you come from a small place, it is still one of the top ten counties in the country. You keep saying such things. What are you questioning? I doubt your ideological awareness and stance. Also, who told you that I want to marry into your Yuan family? What are you kidding? And Lu Zhenping can't just marry someone casually. What's the matter? What do you want to say? Do you think he is too noble to be reached, or that you didn't catch him? You have waited for so many years. You are an old man now. Who are you trying to show off to? You should take a good look in the mirror when you have time. Even a thick layer of powder can't cover the wrinkles on your face. How can you stand next to someone as beautiful as me?"

"you!"

"What do you mean by me? You begged Lu Zhenping and I to come to Beijing, but we didn't come willingly. If it weren't for Commander Bai, Lu Zhenping and I wouldn't have left our children at home and come to Beijing. We have to look at your face. Haha, you are an adopted daughter, and you look at my face. Are you crazy?"

"Shen Meng, you are simply..."

"Shut up, who allowed you to talk to Nian Nian like that? If you don't want to come, you can leave. No one is begging you to come. If you weren't Lu Zhenping's wife and Mingkai's mother, how could you come here? I heard that you made Ning County's economy very good, but I didn't expect you to be such a person. Humph, you don't know what you are talking about."

Shen Meng squinted at the tall man behind Yuan Niannian. Judging from his appearance, she guessed that this man should be from the Yuan family. He was so arrogant, as if this place was a very special place.

"Brother, why are you here?"

"Niannian, if big brother hadn't come, you would have been bullied. You have been like this since you were a child. You have a soft temper and think everyone is a good person. You should know that not everyone in this world is reasonable and respectable."

"Brother, it's okay. Comrade Shen is Brother Zhenping's lover. It doesn't matter if he says a few words to me. I don't care. As long as Mom and Brother Zhenping can get along well, I don't mind if I suffer a little grievance."

Shen Meng sneered, turned around and walked into the ward, and pressed her watch. This thing has a recording function, and there are a lot of them in the small commodity market. Although the workmanship is not very good, the copycat ones are durable.

When Lu Zhenping saw her coming back, he reached out and took the fruit plate from her hand.

"What took so long? I just heard a quarrel outside. Was it you?"

"You heard wrong, it wasn't me. I have already cut the fruit, please try it. Zhenping and I went to buy it early in the morning, it's quite sweet."

"Okay, okay, Xiao Meng, please sit down. Thank you for your hard work."

Shen Meng smiled, but before she could say anything, the door of the ward was pushed open. Over ten people came in. Some of them looked at Shen Meng unfriendly. Yuan Niannian even shed tears, and there was a faint sound of sobbing.
