Leftover Girl's Neverland

Chapter 212 Meng Xianglei's Decision
"Xiao Song, the taste of this dish is not quite right recently, why does it lose its taste the more you eat it?"

In the Mengfu Healthy Vegetable Store, an aunt in her 50s frowned and complained to Song Yaping.She has eaten this Mengfu cuisine for several months. At the beginning, the dishes were bright and delicious, especially the tomato tasted better than the fruit.It's a pity that it was limited at that time, and the few catties of tomatoes she bought each time were not enough for her little granddaughter to eat raw as snacks.

Starting from April, there is no limit, but I don't know if I have eaten too much and developed antibodies, or the vegetables I have grown have changed. The more she eats this Mengfu cuisine, the more it tastes worse, which is really strange.

"This," Song Yaping, who was wearing a maternity dress, was stunned for a moment, organized her words, and said with a smile: "Hehe, auntie, it's like this, since it's June, the weather has been bad, and there is no rain After drying, our food is pure natural, without pesticides or chemical fertilizers, so the size is not as big as the original one, and the color may be a little different, but the taste is the same. Don't worry, our food is delicious Take care of your health. How about this, you are also our old customer, I will give you another gift pack today."

Saying this, she winked at the little girl at the cash register, and the little girl took out a small flower basket weighing one catty from behind the counter, and there were a few brightly colored peppers in the flower basket.

"Hey, I don't want a gift. Now that you know the reason, you have to think of a way. You see, this cucumber is far from the previous one." Auntie shook her head. How can people who can afford healthy dishes care about this idea? As for the gift, I don't know if it was her illusion. She felt that the pollution-free vegetables bought by her daughter-in-law from the supermarket yesterday tasted better than this one.Alas, let’s try it again, if it doesn’t work, we should eat pollution-free vegetables from the supermarket.

"Hey, okay, don't worry, we are trying to find a way."

Song Yaping sent the old man out with a sweet smile. When she came back, she saw the empty storefront and couldn't help sighing. Alas, the business is getting worse day by day, and the production of the vegetable garden at home is also dropping sharply. up.

"Pingping, how are you doing today?"

Meng Xianglei drove a truck to the specialty store, entered the door, and saw that there were only his wife and a small cashier in the store, and there were no customers, and his dark and thin face was full of haggardness.

Song Yaping shook her head, "Oh, it's still the same, how about the supermarket?"

Meng Xianglei uttered a foul word, sat down behind the counter, and lit a cigarette: "No way, according to the manager, if the sales volume doesn't increase this month, let us withdraw the cabinet. In fact, even if he doesn't let We withdraw the cabinets, and we can’t afford those expenses anymore, one pile costs so much money, and there are so many losses every day, if this continues, we will lose money.”

Amidst the smog, Meng Xianglei's exhausted expression became more blurred.In the past month, he has been growing in the vegetable garden almost, pulling weeds and applying farmyard manure, but the vegetables in the garden are still not dead, but he has become dark and thin.It's okay to be tired, the key is that it has no effect.Now he does more work in a day than in the previous week, but the money he earns in a week is not as much as in the past. The huge gap makes him a little unacceptable.

"then what should we do?!"

Song Yaping also sighed, people's life is getting better and better, but why did they lose weight when they came to their house.

"What else can I do, cold salad!" Seeing his wife frowning, Meng Xianglei remembered that she was still pregnant with her child, so he hurriedly stubbed out the cigarette butt, and opened the door and windows of the house.Opposite the specialty store is a home appliance brand store, and there are several prototype TV sets outside the door, playing TV programs loudly.

"...Dear viewers, a video of 'Thousand-Year Ancient Lotus' appeared on the Internet recently, and the video received millions of hits in just twelve hours after it was uploaded. The reporter also watched this video in detail. The lotus is the same as that of the ancient lotus, so how can we determine that the lotus seeds of the Song Dynasty bloomed well? For this, the reporter specially came to Dream Farm where the ancient lotus was planted..."

Neverland again? !Meng Xianglei couldn't help standing by the window, watching Meng Zhen's smiling face in a daze on TV: If, if he hadn't been so ambitious then, and still partnered with Meng Zhen, wouldn't life be different now? !

"...This is a professor of the Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and he also identified the lotus seeds. Now, please explain to us, is this lotus seed really a thousand years ago? It was buried in the soil for a thousand years and did not germinate, but it is today after a thousand years Flowers are blooming, is it possible?!"

On the TV screen, the professor with glasses began to explain his research results on lotus seeds with a serious face.

"Okay, Mr. Meng, last time he said he would find me if there was news, but it went viral on the Internet for two days. We didn't know that a thousand-year-old lotus was found in our city."

Reporter Fang complained to Meng Zhen feigning anger after the interview.

"Hehe, I can't help it. I'm worried that the news will always break out. Others will say that I'm taking the opportunity to hype." Meng Zhen led a group of people to the reception room of the villa. After everyone was seated, the room manager Luo Haiying poured tea for everyone. Meng Zhen took a sip and said with a smile: "Well, how about I compensate you for a piece of news?!"

"Oh, what news?"

Reporter Fang took a sip of hot tea, well, the tea made from mountain spring water tastes good.

"How about the hot spring?"

"Hot springs?! There are many hot springs in our spring city, but there are not many hot springs. You won't tell me that there are hot springs here, right?"

This person's luck is too good, how can he run into anything.

"Hehe, the answer is correct! It's in the back of our mountain, and experts have tested it. The minerals in it are very rich. If you soak it regularly, it will be effective for arthritis and some diseases."

"Really, let's go and have a look!"

Of course Meng Zhen is happy, things are almost developing according to her expected direction, the video of Gu Lian on the Internet attracted reporters from the TV station, and took the opportunity to launch the hot spring again, er, it is estimated that the exposure rate of their Dreamland will be amazing in the past few days It's so high that it's hard for the resort not to be famous.

Arriving at the hot spring villa behind the mountain, there was another round of interviews and filming. After seeing off the reporters, it was almost noon. She went back down the mountain to eat, but was stopped by Wang Zhihai and Wang Zhixing at the door.

"Zhenier, I know that Lily's actions seriously hurt you. Fortunately, the loss is not big. You see, she doubled the compensation for you and Zheng Jian's losses. How about you let her go?"

Wang Zhihai was embarrassed to enter, so several people came to a nearby wooden house.Originally, Erlang didn't want to come, he didn't want to be directly rejected by Meng Zhen, who forced him to save face.

"Let her go? How can I let her go?!" Meng Zhen sat down. She had expected that Wang Zhihai's family would come to intercede for Zhang Lili. Unfortunately, the case has entered the judicial process and she cannot control it. "Brother Wang , everyone is an adult, not a child, and should be responsible for their own actions. Oh, she feels uncomfortable seeing me living a good life, so she wants to poison?! This time I was lucky, and the only ones who died were fish and fish. It's just a chicken, if one day she gets a wrong tendon and comes to my house to poison, I'm not a lucky star, I don't have so much luck."

"I know, I know," Wang Zhihai began to regret that he shouldn't come, but when he remembered his wife's expectations, he bit the bullet and said, "Your sister-in-law Wang said that as long as you can let Lily go this time, Lily will spend all her savings They are all used to compensate for your loss. After she comes out, the family will send her to her sister's house in Province H, and she will never return to Quancheng, don't worry!"

Meng Zhen shook her head. If Zhang Lili had a semblance of repentance at that time, she would not have done such a terrible thing, but Zhang Lili did not look regretful at all. Instead, she was full of complacency and gloating. She dared not Gamble on the safety of yourself and your family.

"Brother Wang, it's not a matter of money. Besides, even if I want to let her go, I don't have the right. Now that the case has been collected, the verdict will be decided soon. It's useless for me to change my mind."

"This……"

"That's right, brother, Ding Zhishu and many people in the village have testified about the lotus pond. Meng Zhen doesn't care if he changes his words. In my opinion, you should let your sister-in-law forget it. If you want to trust someone, then Just find a better lawyer and try to get a lower sentence!"

Wang Zhixing saw that the two of them were in a difficult situation, so he tried to persuade them.

"Well, that's the only way to go." Wang Zhihai didn't want to come at first, because he really couldn't stand his wife's torture.Now that I have tried it, it can be regarded as an explanation to Zhang Lili's family, and the remaining money should be used for litigation.

Seeing him leave unhappily, Wang Zhixing said embarrassedly: "The elder brother was also tortured by the elder sister-in-law. Besides, after all, the accident happened in his family, so he has to explain to Zhang Lili's family. Meng Zhen, don't you Blame him!"

"Well, I understand. In fact, I don't want to do this either. I was frightened by her. This time it's a chicken farm and a lotus pond. Next time I'm sure it will be my home. The old family is old, the small one is small, I can't stand it!"

Meng Zhen smiled, expressing his understanding.

The two of them said, they came out of the wooden house, and when they passed the lotus pond, they saw Meng Xianglei staring at the lotus leaves in the lotus pond in a daze.

"Xiang Lei, what's the matter?"

Since the dissolution of the partnership, the two families have basically been strangers. Even though the lotus pond and the vegetable garden are separated by a wall, the two sides do not talk much.He ran to the lotus pond today, he must have something to look for himself.

"Meng Zhen, my company still has something to do, I'll go back first!"

Wang Zhixing saw Meng Xianglei hesitated to speak, so he left first.

"Well, okay, send me a text message if you have something to do." Meng Zhen watched him leave, then turned his gaze to Meng Xianglei, "Hehe, Xianglei, what's the matter?"

Meng Xianglei gritted his teeth. He considered for a long time and discussed with his family for a long time, and finally decided to come to Meng Zhen.However, he saw the reflection of his embarrassment in Meng Zhen's clear eyes, and he couldn't say it for a while.Turning his head and staring at the corner of the lotus pond, he murmured: "Meng Zhen, I was wrong, I thought I could do it well. But..."

"Uh?"

Meng Zhen froze for a moment. Is this still the proud Meng Xianglei?

"Can we still cooperate?!"

~~~~(>_<)~~~~ Ask for a ticket, ask for a reward! !
