Chapter 8 Don't mention the past, don't mention the future

Walking into the house, a wave of warmth hits, directly dispelling the cold outside.

Walking into the room and looking at it, Chen Hao also knew that his brother-in-law's words were actually too much to believe.

According to the grandeur of the outside, the interior of this room should be a high-end sofa with bricks, walls and wallpaper, and a big TV. It is completely decorated in the style of the city, but in fact it is not. Although it is clean, it must be said that it is the result of mother's hard work.

In the main room on the right, as soon as you enter the door, there is a slightly empty hall. The sofa is the same as before, covered with an old-fashioned blanket. It looks like mother's handicraft. , so that the sofa feels very clean and warm.There is a refrigerator, a folding table, a few round chairs stacked on top of each other, and at the end is a sliding door, which is steaming inside, and behind the door is the kitchen.

Inside the door on the right hand side is the east room. A big kang is spread all over the room. Nowadays, such a big kang is popular, and it is comfortable to live in. Some things in the house are new, such as carpentry, and many things are still in use. Compared with the previous one, the whole thing feels incompetent, and failed to completely renew the whole big house from the inside to the outside. Generally speaking, compared with the home in Chen Hao's mind, this newly built house is really inferior. So pretty and so big.

"Son, get on the kang quickly. The kang is warm and the fire is on." Qiao Xinmei urged her son to get on the kang. If it wasn't for Chen Yuanping's reminder, she would have held her son's hand like this and never let go. After walking for almost four years, only When I came back, the kind of mother's longing for her son could only be a few words on the phone. There was no way, who told the son to be stubborn, and he never left his address for such a long time. If he wanted to go to the capital to see him, he couldn't find anyone.

"I'm not going to cook yet, it'll be a mess in a while."

"Hey, Xiaoxue, get some fruit for your brother, and that drink, old man, you hid that good cigarette, didn't I ask you to take it out a long time ago, why haven't you taken it out yet." Qiao Xinmei went down to the ground while Commanding, she is the happiest when her son is back. She has been preparing since yesterday, from fruits to drinks, and has prepared a lot. She has killed chickens and geese. Seeing that her son is thinner than at home, it is even more Distressed.

Shaking the clothes on the kang, Chen Yuanping sat inside, took out a box of Yuxi cigarettes from the kang cabinet, and threw it in front of Chen Hao. Chen Xue first handed a hot towel to his younger brother to wipe his face, and then gave it to his younger brother. The husband who came in with his luggage handed him a hot towel: "Go to the kang and stay with dad and younger brother, there's nothing you need to do."

Seeing his brother-in-law getting on the kang, Chen Hao handed the box of refills to his brother-in-law. He waved his hand to indicate that he doesn't smoke much now.

The feeling of home does not need to be experienced for a long time. From the moment you enter the door, the furnishings, the smell of the home, and the people in the home are all so familiar.

"Dad, where is my second sister?"

"Who knows what's going crazy, leave her alone." Chen Yuanping heard his son address himself very naturally and actively. He thought that the stubborn son might not be easy to get along with when he came back, but now he has less worries and has been beaten outside for a few years. , It looks like he has grown up.

The old man said angry words, but Ma Defu couldn't speak, and he had to pass back the cigarette that his brother-in-law handed over. First, he heard the old man say: "I'll smoke it for you."

Then Ma Defu took it, opened it, lit one and said: "Xiaoyu has a good sister who lives in the city. She occasionally works overtime and doesn't want to come back, so she lives there. The work is busy these days, so mom didn't let her ask for leave. Maybe I have to work overtime today."

"Huh." Chen Yuanping snorted lightly, and some things became self-explanatory. Chen Hao didn't say anything. The distance between himself and the second sister was all caused by himself. Let her go, who told me that the family really favored boys over girls, and who told me that I let all the savings in the family be exhausted in an instant.It was precisely because there was no money at that time that the second sister's job was not implemented in the end, and now she is just a contract nurse.

The eldest sister’s voice came from outside. It turned out that it was my mother who went to the business hall in the town to contact the installation of broadband yesterday. She came to install it today. Chen Hao was moved and did not show it. Walking in, Chen Hao roughly knew why the second sister hadn't come back. In this room, there were still some traces of life belonging to the second sister.

"Then what, Xiaohao, mom said, if you are not used to living on the kang, there will be no sofa in the room outside, and I will buy you a bed..." Chen Xue observed the expression of her younger brother, just like her mother, and the eldest sister Mother, Chen Xue's love for her younger brother is not much inferior to her mother's.

"That's good. In fact, I can live in another house. The second sister is here..."

"This room can take a bath. Mom is worried that you are not used to not being able to take a bath."

There is an independent bathroom in the back of these two rooms. It looks clean at the moment, and many places can be seen at a glance. They have just been cleaned. No need to ask, all the appliances in the inner room are guaranteed to be new of.

Since this village is already close to the edge of the city, the ring road is a few hundred meters away, and the network coverage is also very good. The main line has already arrived, and the installation is not laborious. When it was time to eat, the installers had already left.

On the first day home, Chen Hao gave up the idea of ​​going to the city to buy a monitor and install it on the computer, and also gave up the idea of ​​live broadcasting. Today, he just wants to sit together with his family and have a reunion dinner. For this reason, He also took the initiative to call his second sister Chen Yu, which was impossible in the past. Seeing his son calling his sister sincerely, both Chen Yuanping and Qiao Xinmei had a look of relief in their eyes. Years of experience , the son is really grown up now.

"Brother-in-law, please go and pick up the second sister. Mom, please clean up with me. The second sister is a girl. It is more convenient to take a shower in the room. Isn't it possible to take a shower down here? I can just live downstairs. In the morning the sun shines. I’m still not used to coming in, I live in the wing room below, and the solar energy shines in later.”

Just as Qiao Xinmei wanted to disagree, Chen Yuanping on the side hummed: "Okay, the young man is not so hypocritical, just listen to him."

Qiao Xinmei just wanted to complain to her husband. She saw her husband set the small alcohol stove on fire and poured the wine into the jug to heat it up. She has been married for nearly 30 years and has been a big man's husband. If he drinks hot soju, he never does it himself. Yes, this appearance is a bit like when I gave birth to my son, when my husband was humming a ditty tune to make himself hot wine.

Son, grown up and sensible.

When Ma Defu came back with Chen Yu, the room was moved again. After all, they are brothers and sisters. They have only met once in the past few years. When they came back, they were very happy to see the room again, and the smile on Chen Yu's face was also strong. After a few minutes, he stepped forward and gave his brother a big hug, and compared his height: "The longer it grows, the taller it is."

The reunion dinner was full of fun, and Chen Hao had a few drinks with his father and brother-in-law, and his mother also had a drink happily. This reunion dinner at home was full of happiness from the beginning to the end. About the past, about the future, no one to mention.

Chen Hao drank too much. Given his capacity for drinking, he couldn't drink half a catty of wine, but today, he was willing to do so, and wandered into the room on the right side of the courtyard. The room was very warm, and the kang was also on fire. This night, for Chen Hao, he slept very hot. In the end, there was only one pair of boxers left, and he slept very comfortably. He was the only one on the spacious kang. They are far better than renting out houses in Yanjing.
