Chapter 2410: Extra - The Beloved Mengmeng
Four years later.
Jiangyuan County, Fenghuai Street, in front of the Lu family's gate.
A chubby little girl was huffing and puffing as she struggled to step over the threshold. It wasn't until one of her little chubby legs landed outside the door that she lifted her round face and said to the person in front of her, "Great-grandmother, I'm leaving now, don't miss me too much."
The elderly lady smiled and replied, "Alright, when will you come back?"
"Um, after I finish eating lunch, I'll come back for a nap. Great-grandmother, you don't have to worry, I'm almost three years old, and I know the way."
After saying this, she extended three chubby fingers very accurately.
The elderly lady glanced at the Meng family's house diagonally across the street, only about twenty meters away. Could she really not recognize the way?
She stifled a laugh and watched the little one who was now sitting on the doorstep because she was tired of standing. "Alright, then great-grandmother will wait for you to come back for a nap."
"Okay." The little one was quite satisfied. Since they had agreed on the plan, she should now lift her other leg.
So, she lifted her right chubby leg while wiggling her bottom, making a concerted effort to cross the threshold.
Ying Xi wanted to lend her a hand, but the little one refused, saying, "No need, I can do it myself. I'm almost three years old, a big girl now."
The people at the door watched her struggle to cross the threshold, sweating profusely and putting in tremendous effort.
Once she managed to stand outside, the little one looked as if she had accomplished a great and meaningful task. She took a deep breath and said, "Great-grandmother, I'm leaving. Goodbye."
She smacked her own mouth with a "pop" and blew a flying kiss to the elderly lady.
Then, she placed her small hand in Ying Xi's hand and let her aunt lead her. After all, they had to cross a main road, and what if someone suddenly rode a horse or drove a carriage halfway through? This way, Ying Xi could pick her up in time.
She cherished her little life very much, even if it was just a few meters of road, she couldn't be careless.
The little one's mature and sensible behavior surprised everyone. She took a proud step forward.
Grandma Lu remained at the door, watching the little one walk away, and couldn't help but smile again.
As the daughter of Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu, Mengmeng had been the center of everyone's attention since birth.
Being the youngest in terms of both generation and age among all the children, she naturally received special treatment from her siblings.
Mengmeng's resemblance to Shu Yu was striking, with a little bit of Meng Yunzheng's characteristics mixed in. This made the elders in the family, who regretted not being able to witness Shu Yu's childhood, lavish all the love and care they could on her.
The same was true for the Meng family, and Mengmeng was equally adored there.
After Meng Yunzheng turned ten, he grew up far from Meng Pei's presence. Seeing this little granddaughter made him feel like he was back in his own childhood, and he couldn't help but want to carry her on his shoulders and play with her every day.
So, under the doting care of everyone, Mengmeng grew up healthy and diligent, almost reaching the age of three. Well, she was almost three.
Mengmeng could be described as fearless, with great courage and even greater determination.
The only person she was afraid of was her own mother, Shu Yu.
Shu Yu felt that she had a long and arduous road ahead of her. Even Meng Yunzheng had become a doting father under her daughter's influence. She had to take on the responsibility of educating Mengmeng to ensure she didn't stray down the wrong path.
Fortunately, for now, Mengmeng seemed to be doing well.
