Chapter 287 - Going Home (2)
“Ah, it’s really my sister.” Chen Haoxuan saw the little head sticking out of the window and stopped in his tracks. He stretched out his hand and shook his arm vigorously as he replied loudly.
Da Peng stopped the car when he arrived at Chen Haoxuan’s side. Chen Meng’er couldn’t wait to open the car door and get out of the car. “My brothers!” Once Chen Meng’er got out of the car, she ran to her two brothers and gave them a big hug.
Coincidentally, Chen Ming walked over. Chen Meng’er, who was in a good mood, also gave Chen Ming a big hug. “Chen Ming!’
Chen Meng’er’s hug made the unprepared Chen Ming freeze. He didn’t react until Chen Meng’er left his embrace. He said in a daze, “Meng’er is back.”
The news of Chen Meng’er’s return quickly spread throughout the Chen family village. When Chen Ping and his wife, who were working in the fields, heard the news, they threw down the tools in their hands and ran to the village entrance. As for the aunties and uncles in the village who liked to gossip, they looked at each other. They didn’t expect such a big turn of events to happen.
The courtyard of Chen Meng’er’s house was filled with people today, just like the first day that the car appeared in Chen Meng’er’s house.
“Dad, Help Uncle Da Peng move the things out of the car.” Chen Meng’er waved her little hand impolitely and commanded.
“Okay.” Chen Ping said dotingly. He thought that the things in his daughter’s mouth were definitely not much. However, when he saw the things in the car and the things in the trunk of the car, he sucked in a breath of cold air. It was not only Chen Ping’s reaction. When the people in the village saw the things in the car, they all sucked in a breath of cold air.
“How much is this?” Some of the things in the car were bought by Chen Meng’er, some were prepared by Elder Liu, and some were given by Marquis Yuwen, Jin Minzhu, and the others. The sum of the things given by everyone… this was a considerable amount.
“So many things?” Chen Ping didn’t know how to do it. It could be said that Chen Ping thought that these things were given by Elder Liu. He felt that it was inappropriate for them to take them.
Da Peng saw through Chen Ping’s thoughts. He smiled and said, “These things were not given to the Little Miss by my employer. Moreover, when the Little Miss went out this time, someone she knew gave them to the Little Miss.” After saying that, Da Peng began to move the things in the car to the Chen residence.
When Chen Ping heard Da Peng’s words, he also helped move the things in the car into the house with a conflicted heart.
The two men were moving the things there. Chen Haoguo and Chen Haoxuan were not idle either. They also helped move some things. Liu Juan hugged Chen Meng’er. She felt a great pain in her heart.
After Da Peng moved all the things in the car into the Chen family’s house, he left. Chen Ping asked him to stay at home for dinner, but he refused. Chen Ping saw that it was getting late, so he did not stay any longer.

After Da Peng’s car left, the villagers left one after another. When the aunties left, they couldn’t help but say with envy, “Chen Ping’s family is so lucky to have such a rich godfather.”
Chen Ping’s sister-in-law, Lu Chengying, was also envious that this brother-in-law’s family had such a rich godfather. However, she could only be envious. She had some other thoughts, but she only dared to think about it in her heart. She did not dare to put her thoughts into action.
If she really did something, she was sure that her family would not let her off easily.
“Chengying, your brother-in-law’s family has a rich relative. As his sister-in-law, why don’t you share some benefits too?” This was the old widow of Chen village who had long disliked Chen Ping’s family. When she saw Lu Chengying… she held back the sourness in her heart and provoked her.
Lu Chenying knew this famous old widow in the village. Even if she was jealous, her mind was still clear. She still knew what to say and what not to say.
“Auntie, look at what you’re saying. What benefits or not? I won’t talk to you anymore. It’s quite late. I have to go back and cook for my husband.” With that said. Lu Chengying quickly walked a few steps.
The old widow was left behind. She looked at Lu Chengying’s back and cursed non-stop.
At Chen Meng’er’s house, it had been a long time since they last saw each other. Coupled with the gossip in the village, the two brothers, Chen Haoxuan and Chen Haoguo, who were not safe, stuck to Chen Meng’er’s side after entering the house.
“Did you bring gifts for us?” Chen Haoxuan stuck to Chen Meng’er’s side, but his small eyes would occasionally glance at the pile of things that Chen Meng’er had brought back.
“Yes, I brought a lot of things for you. There’s delicious food, clothes, and so on. Anyway, I brought a lot for you two, as well as mom and Dad.” Chen Meng’er said, she turned her head and looked at Chen Ping and Liu Juan who were looking at them dotingly.
“Really?” Chen Haoxuan’s eyes lit up when he heard that there was a gift.
Although Chen Haoxuan didn’t show it so obviously, Chen Meng’er could tell that he was quite interested.
Chen Meng’er went to dig out all the things that she had brought back. She put aside the things that Jin Minzhu and the others had given her. Then, she took out all the things that she had bought for her family. “Here, Dad’s, Mom’s, and my brothers’ clothes. These are all nice-looking clothes that I saw in Japan. I bought them for you. Go and try them on. Do they fit?” Chen Meng’er first took out the clothes one by one. Then, she handed them to them
Although Chen Meng’er didn’t like the Japanese, she had to admit that the Japanese economy was developing much faster than the current China. Just look at the style of the clothes… it was completely different from the loose and baggy clothes that people in their country were wearing now.
Chen Haoguo, Chen Haoxuan took the clothes and went to try them on. Liu Juan, on the other hand, took the clothes and looked at the style of the clothes. Her face was a little red. “Meng’er, mom can’t wear these clothes.”
“Why can’t I wear them? Did I buy small clothes?” Chen Meng’er stopped what she was doing and turned to look at her mom with a question.
“No, the size is just right. It’s just that this dress fits too well. I can’t wear it out.” Liu Juan said somewhat awkwardly.
