Chapter 290 Chapter 290
Chen Meng’er had so many layers on that she looked like a ball. She expressed her helplessness. Speaking of which, in her previous life, she had never been so afraid of the cold. At that time, as a strong woman, she often went to various parties in the winter, she wore thin gowns to attend various banquets. She also often wore thin nightwear in the middle of the night in the cold wind to deal with those who tried to attack her.
With Chen Meng’er’s cold-resistant physique, Elder Liu did not stop taking Chen Meng’er’s pulse except for when she wore the clothes that could keep her warm and cozy. Elder Liu felt that there must be something wrong with Chen Meng’er’s body for her to be so afraid of the cold. However, Elder Liu took Chen Meng’er’s pulse several times. Chen Meng’er’s body was very healthy.
In fact, Chen Meng’er also tried to take her own pulse after she learned Chinese medicine. However, she also wanted to find the reason why she was so afraid of the cold in this life. Unfortunately, even Chen Meng’er’s mutated brain could not find out the reason why Chen Meng’er was so afraid of the cold.
Fortunately, other than being afraid of the cold and unwilling to move in winter, there were no other problems with Chen Meng’er’s body. Elder Liu, Chen Ping, and the others felt a little more at ease. They did not go through any trouble and asked Chen Meng’er to go to the hospital for a full body check-up.
When it came to a full body check-up, Chen Meng’er was really a little afraid. The machines in her hospital were a little repulsive. She was afraid that those machines would accidentally find something that could not be found when she was given a body check-up. Chen Meng’er was really afraid that she would not know how to end things. So, when her parents and Elder Liu suggested that they go to the hospital to give her a full body check-up, Chen Meng’er rejected them without even thinking.
Elder Liu looked at his little granddaughter’s constantly changing expression. He thought that his words had touched his little granddaughter’s sore spot. He pretended to cough, he said, “It’s nothing. Aren’t you just afraid of getting a little cold? I found an expert in making ready-made clothes from abroad. Later, I will get someone to tell him to make the clothes warm and not look too bloated.”
Elder Liu had completely misunderstood Chen Meng’er. At that time, Chen Meng’er was reminiscing about the past. However, this was a mistake. Elder Liu’s words made Chen Meng’er think of something that had been buried in her heart for so many years.
“Grandpa, when did you find an expert in making clothes from abroad? Why didn’t I hear any of it before?” Chen Meng’er regained her senses and felt the cold wind that was drilling into her clothes. She couldn’t help but shiver. This made Chen Meng’er miss her warm bed and the spring-like space all year round.
When winter came, Chen Meng’er’s favorite place to stay was not her quilt, but her precious space. The spring-like temperature in the space was Chen Meng’er’s favorite. However, because she was young, Chen Meng’er didn’t have many opportunities to enter the space. Chen Meng’er wanted to ask her parents to expand their small courtyard several times.
However, Chen Meng’er also thought about it in her heart every time, and then she vetoed it. Originally, many people in the village were jealous of their family. With her grandfather, Elder Liu, a rich relative, the villagers often gossiped about their family behind their backs. Her father’s uncle, whom she used to be on good terms with, would also say sourly to his father, “Hey, you have a good daughter. You found such a rich god-grandfather. Your family will also be blessed.”
At that time, Chen Meng’er could clearly see the hurt and displeasure in her father’s eyes. Although such an expression flashed past, Chen Meng’er still saw it.
If their family built a house at this time, Chen Meng’er didn’t even need to think about it. She knew that when the time came, the village wouldn’t know how to gossip. Chen Meng’er was waiting. She was waiting for a good opportunity to make her parents stand up straight in front of everyone in the village.
