Rebirth: I Want to Collect Rent

Hao Liang returned to the village alone from the town. As soon as he arrived at the door of his house, he saw that the gate of the yard was open.

Hao Liang was shocked. He remembered that it was closed when he went out, but now it was open. He thought that maybe his elder brother Hao Jing had no money and came to his house to steal things.

Hao Liang quickly parked the car, took a wooden stick from the roadside, ran in and took a look, and saw Meng Mengdi's sports car parked in the yard.

"Mengmeng!" Hao Liang shouted towards his home.

"I'll make the quilt for you upstairs." Meng Mengdi's voice came from the balcony. Then her head stuck out.

"Why are you here today? You didn't even make a call when you came."

"This is my house, so I can't come here. I left my chicken last time, so I came here to get it."

"The chicken you left behind has been reserved by Zhang Fei, so don't think about it. Come down quickly and help me get the things in."

Hao Liang went outside and drove the car in. Meng Mengdi also dried her quilt and came down from upstairs.

After taking the things in, Meng Mengdi asked Hao Liang, "Hao Liang, you just said that my chicken was reserved by that foreign woman Zhang Fei. What happened?"

Hao Liang told Meng Mengdi what Zhang Fei told him, and Meng Mengdi shouted.

"I thought I had forgotten it, but I didn't expect that Zhang Fei stole it. Let's go find Zhang Fei to settle the score. The chicken was specially raised for me by my uncle."

"Forget it, she has been working for us for a year, so that chicken is a reward. By the way, when will you go back?"

"I'll go back tomorrow morning and tell my mother. Hao Liang, I've been thinking about it for a long time. I told you something. You can't scold me." After Meng Mengdi put the things away, she lowered her head and said to Hao Liang.

"Just tell me what's going on. I won't scold you," Hao Liang replied.

"I secretly gave your parents 50,000 yuan, Hao Liang. I think they are your parents after all. I can't bear to see them like that."

Meng Mengdi seemed a little afraid that Hao Liang would scold her, so she lowered her head after speaking.

When Hao Liang saw Meng Mengdi like this, he originally wanted to say something to her, but when he saw her like this, he couldn't curse anymore. He sighed and said.

"I already know about this, but there will be no next time. If there is a next time, I will hand over all the rent you collected. Also, my father passed away a few days ago."

"I passed away, why didn't you call me? Will your relatives tell me about me in the future?"

"No, I didn't even go to send him to the mountain. The funeral was casual. The fifty thousand yuan you gave them was all given to me. If you give money to my mother in the future, she will also give it to me.

Brother, if you dare to secretly give her money again in the future, I will not just scold you."

"Then can I go see your mother now?"

"No need to go, I told you, just treat me as if I have no parents, and we will live alone from now on."

"Then let's go see my uncle. I bought another piece of clothing for him. I'll go upstairs and get it."

Saying that, Meng Mengdi ran upstairs, took a piece of clothing, and took Hao Liang with her to her uncle's house.

"Hao Liang, have you smoked a lot these days? When I was drying the quilt, there was a smell of cigarettes on the quilt. There are still many cigarette butts in the room."

"Well, I smoked a few. I won't smoke again in the future."

"Are you under great pressure these days and that's why you smoke?"

Before Hao Liang could answer, the fourth aunt and second grandma from the village came over carrying a basket and said to Mengmeng.

"Mengmeng, you have come back from home to celebrate the New Year. This is to see your uncle."

"Yes, Fourth Aunt, Second Aunt, what are you doing here?"

"Go wash the vegetables in the pond and come to my house to play when you have time. My Jiajia is at home," the fourth aunt replied.

"Well, Fourth Aunt, I'm going to my uncle's house first." With that, he said goodbye to Fourth Aunt and the others and took Hao Liang away.

"Mengmeng is such a nice girl. Hao Liang still scolds her as a bad girl every day in the village. Now I'm too lazy to talk to her." The fourth aunt said to the second grandma after watching Hao Liang and Mengmeng leave.

"Who says it's not? I think she just did it. Her eldest son is like this, and she keeps thinking that Hao Jing is a college student and how powerful he is. I'm too lazy to talk to her."

"That's right. If she were nicer to Mengmeng, Mengmeng would definitely be filial. Every time she comes to see her uncle, she never fails to drink or smoke, and she buys a few sets of clothes from time to time. This girl is not like this.

Filial piety."

The fourth aunt looked at the clothes in Meng Mengdi's hand and said. Her eyes were full of envy. She followed the second aunt to the pond to wash vegetables.

On the way to her uncle's house, Meng Mengdi said hello to the villagers she met from time to time. After walking for seven or eight minutes, she arrived in the yard of her uncle's house and shouted into the house.

"Uncle, I'm here to see you."

"Mengmeng is here, come in and sit down quickly, I will get you something to eat. You can eat soon." The uncle walked out of the room and said to Hao Liang and Mengmeng who were coming over.

"Uncle, I bought another piece of clothing that you can wear when visiting during the Chinese New Year. You can try it." After entering the room, Meng Mengdi handed the clothes over and said.

"No need to try, what Mengmeng bought must be good. You guys sit down, the food will be ready soon." After saying that, he took the clothes into the house and returned to the kitchen to cook.

After having a good meal at the uncle's house, Hao Liang and Meng Mengdi returned home. During the meal, the uncle did not mention a word about Hao Liang's father's death.

Just as Meng Mengdi took out the stool and placed it at the door of her house, Zhang Fei came over swaggering, chewing on a piece of sugar cane.

"Mengmeng, why are you here? Didn't you go home?" When Zhang Fei saw Meng Mengdi there, he immediately thought of the chicken at his uncle's house and asked with a guilty conscience.

"Well, Zhang Fei, I asked you to help me put away the chickens, but you actually kept one of my chickens."

"Mengmeng, it ran down on its own. You can't blame me. Besides, now that I consider your uncle as my godfather, I have a share of that chicken."

When Zhang Fei saw what Meng Mengdi wanted to say, he was afraid that Meng Mengdi would take the chicken back again, so he pulled Meng Mengdi up and said.

"Let's not talk about the chicken. Let's go and play at my house. I bought a lot of food and fireworks. I'll show you. You can take whatever you want to eat."

With that said, Zhang Fei took Meng Mengdi away.

The next morning, it was New Year's Eve again, and Meng Mengdi's mother still called twice to ask if she was back.

Meng Mengdi reluctantly said to Hao Liang, "Hao Liang, I'm going back."

"Well, I'm going back to Yue City on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. When will you come back?"

"I went back in the morning of the seventh day of the seventh grade and told my mother to go to tutoring, otherwise I wouldn't be able to go to college. Yesterday, I told my mother to give a gift to the teacher, and she ran out. My mother even gave me five hundred yuan."

"Well, then drive slower and be careful on the way back."

"Well, call me tonight. You can't just not call me like you did a few days ago." Meng Mengdi said after getting into the car.

"Yeah. See you in a few days."

"Goodbye." Meng Mengdi said and drove away.

After Meng Mengdi left, Hao Liang went to prepare the dishes for the family reunion dinner in the evening. After working hard all afternoon, he prepared the food and said to Zhang Fei, who came over to help after lunch at who knows where.

"Zhang Fei, go and call my uncle and ask him to come over for dinner."

"Hao Liang, we agreed, when I go to call your uncle, you can't eat my two big chicken legs. I killed these chickens. I also plucked the hair, so you just cooked them." Zhang Fei

He said worriedly.

"You think I'm just Mengmeng, and you're trying to grab the chicken legs to eat. I'll keep them all for you. Go ahead."

"Yes, Mengmeng has gone back, so I'll go." With that, Zhang Fei went to the uncle's house to help Hao Liang call the uncle.

After a while, Zhang Fei came back with his uncle, but behind him were Hao Liang's mother and Hao Jing.

Just as Hao Liang was about to chase people away, his uncle began to persuade him, "Ah Liang, your mother doesn't have anything ready to worship. I'll ask them to come over for the New Year's Eve dinner together."

Hao Liang knew that although his uncle said he was not prepared, he actually had no money to prepare at all.

His father's funeral was also hasty. Although it was hasty, it still cost more than 5,000 yuan.

Hao Liang's father's funeral was financed by relatives, and the rest was received as gifts.

It can be said that Hao Liang's mother doesn't have much money now. She doesn't have much money to prepare New Year's goods or anything like that.

"Second brother, your brother and I will bow to your father twice. We will go back," Hao Liang's mother said.
