Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent

While Hao Liang was talking to his uncle, Meng Mengdi also finished washing the dishes and came out soon. She took off her cousin's apron and said to Hao Liang.

"Hao Liang, how about we go back to our new home now and take out the new quilts and other things to dry them. We have to cover them up at night."

When Hao Liang heard that Meng Mengdi was going back, he also stood up from the stool and said to his uncle.

"Uncle, Mengmeng and I will go back to the new house first. The furniture will arrive later. Do you want to come with me and take a look."

"You guys go over there by yourselves. I just cleaned your house yesterday, so there's no need to clean it. I'll go over and take a look at it for you later.

"The uncle also stood up and said.

When Meng Mengdi heard that her uncle would not go with them, she quickly said coquettishly to her uncle.

"Uncle, let's go together. You pick a room and I'll buy you a bed. It's a Simmons bed. You can check it out first when we get here later."

"We'll go see it later. You go over first and I'll cook the chicken for you later." The uncle said with a smile to Meng Mengdi.

"Then let's go there first." Hao Liang said to his uncle and went back with Meng Mengdi.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, the furniture Hao Liang bought was also delivered, and the owner of the store came personally.

Hao Liang called several villagers and it took more than an hour to move all the furniture in.

I don’t know when Meng Mengdi came back from a small shop and bought a pack of cigarettes worth ten yuan each. After opening them, she distributed them one by one to several villagers who were busy moving furniture.

"Uncles and uncles, I have worked hard for you just now. Take this cigarette. It is a little bit of my family's thoughts." Meng Mengdi also said as she parted.

"Mengmeng, if you still buy cigarettes for such a trivial matter, how can we be embarrassed to ask you to help us in the future?" a villager said to Mengmengdi.

After Meng Mengdi came to Haoliang Village several times, she also got to know some people in the village. After all, Meng Mengdi's familiarity attribute is still very powerful.

Hao Liang even thought that Meng Mengdi would really stay in her hometown for a month. In the summer, she might carry a small bench and go to the well to chat with the village aunt.

Seeing that the villagers were still refusing, when the furniture had just arrived, the uncle who came over specially said to the villagers.

"Brothers, just take it. Mengmeng bought it for you. It's just a pack of cigarettes."

"Yes, uncle, just take it. I bought everything, and my Hao Liang doesn't smoke. After I opened it, I took it to the store to return it." Meng Mengdi said and stuffed it over.

The villagers were so enthusiastic about Meng Mengdi that they couldn't resist it and accepted a pack of cigarettes.

After waiting for the shop owner to help Hao Liang assemble the furniture, collect the money and leave, the villagers also left.

The uncle also took a look and said that he had something to do at home and would ask Hao Liang to take Meng Mengdi over for dinner later. The uncle also left immediately, leaving only Meng Mengdi and Hao Liang at home.

After everyone was gone, Meng Mengdi took Hao Liang and ran upstairs. The two of them took in the quilts that were drying and made the bed.

Meng Mengdi sat on the bed, pressed down a few times and said to Hao Liang.

"Hao Liang's bed is good. It makes no sound when it moves. It's not like our bed in Yue City, which creaks when it moves."

…

"That's because you're too heavy. Why doesn't it make any noise when I'm sleeping alone?"

"Shit, I'm not heavy at all. I weighed myself just before the vacation and weighed only 100 pounds. I still wore a lot of clothes to weigh myself."

"If it's not heavy, then it's not heavy. We will buy a new bed next year. The bed makes a lot of noise when we move it, which affects my performance."

"Rogue, who told you this?"

The two of them lay down on the bed together as they spoke. As soon as this piece of furniture came in, the originally empty room seemed to become fuller.

In the evening, Hao Liang took Meng Mengdi to his uncle's house to have dinner. After eating, Meng Mengdi once again took over the housework of washing dishes.

After washing the dishes, I took Hao Liang to visit the village. He seemed to be more familiar with the people in the village than Hao Liang.

When you see someone, say hello to them. After all, they are doing business outside and the migrant workers have not come back yet. In addition to the children in the village, there are some elderly people who help take care of the children at home.

There is nothing wrong with calling Meng Mengdi's uncle and aunt over.

After walking for a while, Hao Liang couldn't help but ask Meng Mengdi.

"Mengmeng, you have only been here a few times, how come you are so familiar with the people in the village? They all know your name is Mengmeng."

"What's so strange about this? I'm so good-looking and a nice person, so people in your village will naturally know me. Let's go home, sleep, and try out our new bed." Meng Mengdi said proudly.

After saying that, Meng Mengdi took Hao Liang's arm and pulled Hao Liang towards their new house.

The two spent the night in the new house. The next morning, Hao Liang and Meng Mengdi got up. Hao Liang said to Meng Mengdi.

"Mengmeng, I will go to town with my uncle later to pick a day for the wine reception. You stay at home and wait for the person who delivers the electrical appliances to come."

"Well, go ahead, I have nothing to do at home alone. I will go to your village for a walk later. After we get married, I will be considered a member of your village." Meng Mengdi washed her face and said.

When Hao Liang saw that Meng Mengdi didn't care, Hao Liang stopped caring about Meng Mengdi who was making the bed, and went downstairs to the yard of his home.

It seemed that winter in rural areas was colder than in urban areas. Hao Liang tightened his tight clothes, opened the car door and got in.

But the front glass window of the car was covered by a layer of hoarfrost, and it was impossible to see what was outside. Hao Liang could only turn on the heating air conditioner and wait for a while.

After the hoarfrost melted away, Hao Liang drove to his uncle's house.

When we arrived at the gate of the courtyard of the uncle's house, the uncle was already standing at the door waiting. When he saw Hao Liang's car approaching, he walked out and got into Hao Liang's car.

Hao Liang didn't even eat breakfast, so he took his uncle to the town. By the way, he had a basket of small steamed buns for breakfast in the town.

While eating breakfast, Hao Liang remembered that Meng Mengdi didn't say anything about her having breakfast just now. Hao Liang also forgot about it. He didn't know if she was hungry now.

After breakfast, the uncle took Hao Liang to Mr. Xu's house and wanted his help in choosing a date.

But when I arrived at the front door of Mr. Xu's house, I saw that the door was closed and there was no one at all in the house. It seemed that Mr. Xu was not at home either.

"Brother, where has Mr. Xu gone? Why is the door of his house still closed at this time?" The uncle took out a cigarette and handed it to an uncle who was almost sixty years old in the next room and asked.

…

"Mr. Xu Da, it's been almost three months since Mr. Xu Da passed away. You don't know. It seems that when he came back from doing Feng Shui for a family, he knew how to arrange his funeral. He passed away within a week."

"He passed away. It's too fast. He was fine last time I saw him." The uncle said timidly.

"Who says it's not the case? Mr. Xu has no children, and the town officials hastily arranged the funeral for him. He was taken directly to the crematorium and burned, and the ashes were not returned."

Hao Liang was a little surprised when he heard that Mr. Xu had passed away. Although Mr. Xu was a little older when he last saw him, he was in good spirits.

And the uncle said that after he came back from doing Feng Shui for a family, Mr. Xu made arrangements for the funeral, thinking that this family should be his home.

In his last life, Hao Liang had stayed in his hometown for so long and had never heard of Mr. Xu, but he didn't know where Mr. Xu appeared from in this life.

Since Mr. Xu has passed away, the uncle could only take Hao Liang to a blind fortune teller in the town and pick a date.

This day is set on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month.

After choosing a date, the uncle took Hao Liang to buy a stack of invitations. The uncle knew better than Hao Liang who he wanted to invite, and Hao Liang didn't care too much.

After buying the invitations, the uncle said to Hao Liang, "I will go home and arrange the number of people for you later. Do you want to invite your friends in Yue City?"

"Just prepare a table at my friend's place in Yue City. Maybe there won't be too many people coming." Hao Liang thought that the only people he was close to in Yue City were Zhong Yi and Professor Jiao.

But wherever my cheap senior brother is, no matter if he comes or not, I still need to get an invitation. After all, Professor Jiao’s face is there, and Hao Liang has been moving around a lot in the past few months. It may not be possible to get a table together.

After returning home, as soon as she got out of the car, Meng Mengdi was eating a roasted sweet potato under the eaves. She didn't know where she got it from.

And there is a bowl on the stool next to it, with a sweet potato in it.
