595 Ask For Some Guidance
He might not know much about Liang Zu’s daily habits, but he was still very familiar with other aspects of Liang Zu’s life.
Liang Lan was different. She was a mother, but she did not know what her daughter liked or disliked. Even the clothes she bought for her daughter were always too small. She did not even know which grade her daughter was in school.
Xiao Yu had always been taken care of by Liang Lan’s mother or sent to stay with Liang Lan’s mother-in-law. She had not even taken care of her for a single day.
Now that she thought about it, she felt very ashamed.
!!“I… I’ll take note next time,” Liang Lan said softly.
“When you have time, call my wife and get her to teach you,” Chen Hu said smugly.
“There’s no need to trouble her. I’ll be more mindful,” Liang Lan said. She did not want to embarrass herself.
The food was about done. Qiao Qiang lifted the lid of the big pot and steam came out immediately, making the smell even stronger.
Liang Zu and Xiao Yu stood at the door in a daze and stared blankly ahead. “Wow…”
Qiao Qiang ignored them and scooped out the share for Zhang Wei and the rest. He put a lot of meat in their portion, giving them almost all the meat in the pot.
“Mei Mei! Come and bring this to Xiao Wei and the others,” Qiao Qiang said.
Qiao Mei smiled and took out a metal whistle from her pocket. She had found it in Xia Zhe’s bag and felt that it was quite useful, so she asked Xia Zhe for it.
By now, there was a secret code between Qiao Mei and Zhang Wei.
“No need! Grandfather, look!” Qiao Mei stood at the door of the courtyard confidently. She took a deep breath and blew her whistle forcefully in the direction of Li Gui’s house.
When Zhang Wei heard the whistle, he immediately stuck his head out of the fence and ran to Qiao Mei after a while.
“Elder sister! You called for me!” Zhang Wei said excitedly.
This whistle was different from those sold in the convenience store. In the past, when they still had pocket money, they could still afford to buy whistles from there. It cost 50 cents a whistle, which was considered very expensive!
However, the whistle was made of plastic and would break after using it a few times. If they carried it in the bag, it would also shatter if it accidentally hit something.
The one in Qiao Mei’s hand was very well made. The sound was loud and clear and it was not difficult to use. The key thing was that it was made of iron and would not break no matter how it was handled.
Zhang Wei looked at Qiao Mei with sparkling eyes. Qiao Mei had promised him that as long as he maintained first place in school this semester, she would give him this iron whistle.
“Grandfather and I made stewed goose. You can bring some back for everyone to eat,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
“Then what about you, elder sister? We have some vegetables already. Grandfather and you should eat the goose.” After saying that, Zhang Wei saw Chen Hu in the courtyard and shouted enthusiastically, “Uncle Hu! You’re here!”
Ever since he found out that Chen Hu was the person who saved his younger siblings, he regarded him as a hero and their family’s savior.
Chen Hu smiled and waved his hand. “You still remember me!”
“Of course I remember! Uncle Hu, my mother even said that she wanted to invite you to our house for a meal. It’s just that there’s nothing good in our house. I hope you don’t mind. I even secretly hid a bag of snacks! It’s delicious! I’ll give it to you when you come over!” Zhang Wei smiled innocently.
Chen Hu also liked this child very much. This was how a child of his age should be. He was full of vigor and also very polite and warm and hospitable.
“Don’t eat too many snacks! Otherwise, you won’t be able to join me if you don’t grow tall enough,” Chen Hu said in a threatening manner.
Zhang Wei had once shared with Qiao Mei his thoughts. He wanted to be a soldier like Xia Zhe and Chen Hu so that he could protect his younger siblings from harm, protect her and his grandfather from being bullied, and also help more people.
Qiao Mei had told Xia Zhe about this, but the requirements at Xia Zhe’s unit were very strict and Zhang Wei had already missed the opportunity. Later on, Xia Zhe suggested they could try and ask Chen Hu.
After Qiao Mei and Chen Hu discussed it, they decided to nurture Zhang Wei well.
In the meantime, Qiao Qiang would also quietly monitor Zhang Wei’s training and point out his shortcomings to him.
Zhang Wei’s height was a very serious shortcoming for him. Zhang Chao was two years younger than him and was almost the same height as him.
“I definitely won’t eat anymore! I’ll work hard!” Zhang Wei said solemnly.
“Alright, you should go back quickly. The food will get cold soon. Your Uncle Hu will stay around longer tonight. You can come back after dinner,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.
