Chapter 36: The Embrace of Parents
An Airbus 330 roared down to the K-City airfield. Today, the sun is shining in K City, and the whole sky is like a blue gem, without a trace of clouds.
Yin Jie walked out of the airport quickly with his luggage, and he got to the taxi in about ten minutes. After getting into the car, she clearly spit out the address "Lakeside Garden" that had been haunting her heart for a long time, and her whole heart had flown back to her home.
Climbing up to the fourth floor with her luggage with difficulty, she gently pressed the white doorbell as she looked at the familiar door in front of her.
"Jingle bell~~~"
The brown door opened, revealing a familiar person inside.
"Dad~~~" Yin Jie shouted softly and plunged into Yin's father's arms. Yin's father was holding his daughter in his arms, his eyes were red, and he turned around and asked his eldest son to take his daughter's luggage into the house.
Yin Jie looked up from Yin's father's arms, saw his mother who came out of the kitchen after hearing the news, and turned around and threw himself into Yin's mother's arms with a crying "Mom".
Yin's mother stretched out her hands, a little at a loss. She handed the spatula in her hand to her daughter-in-law, untied her apron with her hand, and then hugged her daughter in her arms and gently caressed her back.
"Mommy, mom, my Mei'er..."
Yin's mother's eyes were slightly red, and her gentle voice trembled in Yin Jie's heart like a heavenly sound. After a while, Yin Jie stopped his tears and raised his head to stare at his mother, who was thinking about it day and night.
The mother in front of her is still so beautiful, her skin is still so fair and moist, her smile is still so soft and warm, but the fine lines at the corners of her eyes are still quietly increasing, and her black hair is also mixed with silver threads.
Looking back, my father seems to have lost a lot of weight, his hair has become more white and less black, and obvious age spots have appeared in the corners of his eyes. Yin Jie was a little puzzled to find that the corners of his father's lips drooped, and there was a little seriousness in his expression. Is something wrong?
The elf's eccentric niece poked her head out of the living room and called her sister-in-law with a grin. But there was a sly light in his eyes, as if to say, "Hehe, let me see it, right? Black history, black history." ”
Yin Jie buried his head in his mother's neck and rubbed again, continuing to breathe greedily into the warm aroma of his mother's body.
Mother Yin caressed her daughter's back and said softly, "My Mei'er is home, can you change your clothes?" ”
Back in his room, Yin Jie looked around. Light blue gauze curtains, bed sheets with cherry blossoms on a powder blue background, white retro furniture, and blue and white bone china teacups still in the corner of the table,.... Everything is still the same as before leaving home for the imperial capital. With a smile on her lips, she opened her closet and pulled out a pink and purple pullover hoodie to replace with.
When she came to the living room again, she found that her father, mother, and brother were all sitting on the sofa, seemingly waiting for her. Is something out of the ordinary happening?
After Yin Jie sat down, Brother Yin, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, asked her a little vigilantly and seriously:
"What were you crying about? What happened to you?"
Yin Jie was stunned for a moment, and found that his parents were watching him with concern, and then he realized what kind of misunderstanding he had brought to his family. She couldn't help laughing, and burst into tears again, grabbed her father's hand, and said in a choked voice while wiping her tears:
"It's nothing, I just miss you too much..."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Mother Yin said angrily and funny:
"You stupid boy, how old are you?! Talk to your dad and brother here, and mom will make you something to eat. ”
Under the appeasement of his father and brother, Yin Jie quickly calmed down. Holding his father's hand, he answered the questions raised by his father and brother about life and work. I heard my mother's happy voice in the kitchen... It feels so good to be home!
Yin's mother showed her skills today and cooked a table full of dishes with Yin Jie's sister-in-law, several of which Yin Jie has always liked.
At the dining table, Yin's mother sandwiched a piece of whitened fish meat for Yin Jie, "Your favorite, try it!"
Yin Jie picked up the vegetables and put them in her mouth, and the specially concocted fish was fragrant and tender in the mouth, and she savored it. "Well, it's delicious! Mommy's craftsmanship is amazing! And it's getting better!"
"You know it wasn't your sister-in-law's doing?"
Yin's mother smiled in her eyes and said teasingly.
"I know, of course I know, this one tastes great! It smells like my mother! Of course my mother made it!" Yin Jie said very doggedly.
Yin's mother said angrily: "You will be clever to make your mother happy! Come, eat a piece of tofu with pulp, this is your sister-in-law's craft." ”
"Well, that's good! This one is delicious! My sister-in-law's cooking is getting better and better! Big brother is so blessed!"
Yin's mother looked at the interaction between her son and daughter-in-law with satisfaction, sandwiched a piece of stewed pork ribs for her daughter-in-law, and casually served Yin Jie a small half bowl of rice and poured pork rib soup on it. Seeing her daughter eat sweetly, she was very happy in her heart, and her face was full of tenderness. The little niece watched silently with wide eyes, and waited for a long time to find that her grandmother was picking up vegetables for her aunt and mother, and now she was serving vegetables to her grandfather, but she didn't give her vegetables. Suddenly sprinkled coquettishly. The sister-in-law touched her head dotingly, took a piece of Sichuan-style sausage and put it in her bowl...
Yin Jie looked at his niece with a smile: "How is it, someone spoils you now, right?"
The little niece's mouth was pouted high, and her little head was raised to the sky: "Only my mother hurts me!"
Everyone laughed, and Yin's father and Yin's mother hurriedly sandwiched the little girl's favorite dishes and put them in her bowl.
"Hmph!" the little niece's eyes rolled out of the sky, "You can't think of me without reminding me!"
Father Yin turned his head to look at Brother Yin: "You usually teach children like this?"
Brother Yin glared at his little niece with a threatening look, and the little niece stuck out her tongue nonchalantly. Father Yin frowned: "Don't be weird, little kid!"
Father Yin has always been kind to the children on weekdays, but once he sinks his face, he is still quite scary. The little niece quickly quieted down, and very obediently ate the dishes in the bowl, chewing slowly.
Mother Yin gently patted Yin's father's hand and said to her little niece: "Grandma's fruit is so well-behaved now, such a well-behaved little girl is the most likable." But when you roll your eyes, it doesn't look good, so you should pay attention to it in the future. ”
Yin Jie's little niece, known as Yin Qing, nicknamed Songguoer, was born with a small one, and her hair on her head was messy like a pinecone.
Songguo's eyes widened as she looked at her mother, and Sister-in-law Yin nodded affirmatively: "It looks really ugly." ”
Songguo immediately turned to Yin Jie like a helper: "Sister-in-law~~~"
Yin Jie smiled and said, "Your grandmother and mother are right, it's really not good to roll your eyes, remember not to do this in the future." But our pine cones are very cute..."
The little girl immediately came alive again, pouting and looking left and right.
The room was full of laughter and laughter.
After eating my mother's loving dinner, my brother and sister-in-law took my niece home. Before leaving, the little niece nestled in Yin Jie's arms like candy and didn't want to leave, "I want to sleep with my sister-in-law at night!" she made her stand.
"But my sister-in-law was tired from sitting on the plane for a long time. Guoguo will come over and play with her sister-in-law on the weekend, okay?" said the sister-in-law softly.
Songguo still refuses to follow, claiming that he can leave for school from his grandfather's house tomorrow. Brother Yin couldn't help but say that he suppressed it forcefully, picked up the child and carried it on his shoulders and took it away directly. Songguo screamed and was carried away by her father. Yin's father told his sister-in-law: "Be careful, don't let the child get hurt." This also disturbs the rest of the neighbors, so you should pay attention to it in the future. ”
Sister-in-law said yes and smiled with Yin Jie, and then said goodbye and went downstairs.
At eight o'clock the next morning, the sun had already risen, and the breeze was still cool. The streets are full of people, people going to work or school are crowded in front of the breakfast shop, the impatient urging and the loud shouting of the morning shop owner are mixed together, and the smell of morning food wafts in the wind.
A beam of sunlight shone through the curtain on Yin Jie's face. She frowned, opened her eyes slightly, moved a little, then rubbed her eyes to look left and right, and finally made sure that she had returned to the home where she had lived since childhood. She stretched comfortably, breathed in the slightly fruity air, rolled on the bed a few times with the quilt, and then got up lazily.
On the table was a plate of orange bananas. She smiled and really came back. Only my mother would be so caring, knowing that she likes the smell of bananas, she always doesn't forget to leave a plate of bananas in her room.
After washing, Yin Jie, who was refreshed, tied his hair into a high ponytail, opened the door and walked onto the terrace, slowly starting to stretch in the early morning. Although the residential community where Yin's family is located is located in the urban area, the environment is still very good, and there are many tall trees planted around. The early morning sun shone on his face and was slightly warm, his ears were ringing with the chirping of early birds, breathing in the slightly cold and cold air, with stretching again and again, the muscles that had slept all night slowly woke up, Yin Jie felt that his whole body was full of vitality.
Yin's mother walked up to the terrace with a cup of soy milk, and saw her daughter's face smooth and delicate under the reflection of the early morning sun, moist and watery, and seemed to exude a faint brilliance, and couldn't help but praise:
"My daughter is so beautiful!"
Yin Jie smiled: "That's, who told me to have a beautiful mother?"
Yin's mother snorted, smiled and handed her the soy milk, beckoning her back to the restaurant for dinner.
Father Yin opened the door and came in, with a slight sweat on his forehead. Yin's mother handed him a towel, turned around and explained to Yin Jie:
"In June and July, your father had a physical problem, and your cousin had to take injections and medicines for half a month to cure him, but it took a lot of effort. Your cousin asks him to take a walk to the park every morning and walk around the park before coming back. Your dad was reluctant at first, but I persuaded him to persist for a month, and now his physical condition is indeed much better. ”
"Dad, you have to keep going. Once the habit of exercising is formed, it is easy to stick to it. ”
"Don't worry, what I want to do for your dad has never been done halfway. ”
Father Yin glanced at Yin's mother a little reproachfully, turned around and went in to wash his hands.
Today's breakfast is thick rice porridge, soy milk, scallion pancakes made by Yin's mother, poached eggs, red dates, and several hors d'errites, there are not many varieties, but it feels very comfortable in the stomach.
After breakfast, Yin Jie accompanied Yin's mother to the market to buy vegetables. There are people in the morning market, but there are few young girls like Yin Jie. A few grandmothers greeted Yin's mother in a friendly manner: "Where are you buying vegetables? This little girl is really a water spirit, is it your daughter?"
Yin's mother responded gently, and pulled Yin Jie to show her from time to time. "Yes, my daughter, who works in Beijing, came back to see our old couple. ”
After buying the ingredients needed for the day, Yin Jie carried the bag and walked home with his mother.
