Chapter 228 Hometown Cowardice
The sea distance from Huludao to Qingdao is about 800 kilometers, although the speed of the ship is not fast, only 15 knots, but it is two days and one night, you can reach it.
And as Qingdao got closer and closer, Gao Jin was a little uneasy. Although she later fell out with her family, she signed up to work in the Northeast, although later under Qin Zheng's persuasion, she put down this dispute, and talked to her father in the communication, which was considered to be a reconciliation with her family, but this time she went home for the first time after leaving home for nearly two years, and at this time she also gave birth to some homesickness, so after being on the Huludao boat, she was restless, and the whole person was in a trance, which made her assistants and entourage a little confused, Bi Jing had never seen Gao Jin like this.
I didn't sleep all night on the boat, and all I was thinking about was how I got up on the spur of the moment two years ago and fell out with my family, and how I faced them when I went home to see my parents this time......
When he got up the next morning, Gao Jin had no appetite, and he only ate two bites of breakfast, so he said that he didn't want to eat, and left the restaurant, Chen Jingang, who dined with her, felt very strange, although he and Gao Jin had not been in contact for a long time, but in the impression, Gao Jin was a shrewd and capable person, who acted cleanly and neatly, and never dragged mud and water, and suddenly changed a lot, so he couldn't help but ask Ouyang Longxing: "Mayor Gao, what's wrong, it seems that it is not normal since he got on the boat yesterday." ”
Ouyang Longxing and Gao Jin have worked together for a while, and they usually chat and hear Gao Jin talk about the conflicts between her and her family, so he can understand Gao Jin's feelings, but after all, this is Gao Jin's family matter, and it is not easy to say it to Chen Jingang, so he only said: "Look at this, there is probably something on your mind." ”
After all, Chen Jingang and Gao Jin were not familiar with each other, so they didn't pay much attention to it after hearing it, and after the two of them finished breakfast, they left separately. Ouyang Longxing wanted to go back to his room to rest, but when he passed by the stern, he saw Gao Jin standing on the side of the stern, looking at the rolling waves on the sea in a daze.
Ouyang Longxing hesitated for a moment, but still walked over and said, "Mayor Gao." ”
Gao Jin turned around and saw that it was Ouyang Longxing, and said, "Senior Commander Ouyang." ”
Ouyang Longxing said: "Since you got on the boat yesterday, you seem to have something wrong, are you worried about seeing your family." ”
Gao Jin nodded, also a little embarrassed, and said: "Yes, let you see the smile, it was indeed me who was too impulsive at the beginning, and said something excessive, which hurt my parents' hearts too much, although I apologized to my father on the phone, but this time I went back to Qingdao, I still don't know how to face my family, and I am facing my parents." ”
Ouyang Longxing said: "I think you think you are thinking a little too much." ”
Gao Jin was stunned for a moment and said, "Do I think too much?"
Ouyang Longxing said: "Yes, I think your family, since it is actually your father, doesn't care about what you said at the beginning, and it is the best result for you to be able to go home." ”
Gao Jin was stunned for a while, and then thought about it for a while before saying, "Why do you think so, you shouldn't have seen my parents." ”
Ouyang Longxing smiled and said: "Because you are a family, since you are a family, what else can't be turned over, so I said that you don't have to worry about it at all." After a pause, he said: "Actually, it is really lucky to have a family, more than 6,000 of us, a few of us have families, not to mention a big family like your family, how lucky it is, so do you care about what you said before? So don't think about how to face your parents, after meeting, it will naturally be solved." ”
Gao Jin pondered for a while, then finally nodded and said, "I understand, thank you, Senior Commander Ouyang." ”
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the ship arrived at Qingdao port, Gao Jin, Ouyang Longxing, Chen Jingang and others came down from the gangway, only to see 7 or 8 people waiting in front of the gangway, men, women and children, led by an old lady about 60 years old, it was Gao Jin's mother Lu Yuehong.
Although he was still a little hesitant when going down the gangway, as soon as he saw the old lady, Gao Jin suddenly forgot all the things that were noisy and hesitant, and walked down the gangway quickly, shouting while rushing towards Lu Yuehong: "Mom, Mom." ”
When the mother and daughter saw each other, they immediately hugged each other, Gao Jinji couldn't help crying, Lu Yuehong patted her back, her voice was a little choked, and said, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back!"
A couple of about 30 couples on the side persuaded each other, and the man said: "Mom, my sister is back, this is a good thing, why are you crying?"
The woman persuaded Gao Jin: "Sister, it's good if you come back, don't be sad, forget the previous things." ”
There were two people who persuaded each other, Lu Yuehong and Gao Jin stopped their grief, and Gao Jin greeted them at this time, it turned out that the man and woman were Gao Jin's younger brother Gao Zhen and sister-in-law Zhou Lihong.
After greeting each other, Zhou Lihong said to the two girls next to her: "Huilan, Huifang, go see your mother." ”
It turned out that this pair of girls was a pair of orphan sisters adopted by Gao Jin, and now they all follow Gao Jin's surname, the elder sister is called Gao Huilan, who is 13 years old this year, and the younger sister is called Gao Huifang, who is 10 years old this year.
After listening to Zhou Lihong's words, the two immediately threw themselves into Gao Jin's arms, crying while shouting for their mother. At this time, Gao Jin also felt a little guilty in his heart, when he left Qingdao willfully and went to work in the Northeast, he not only left his family, but also left his daughter at home, so he also hugged the sisters, touched their heads, and said: "It's not good for my mother, I shouldn't leave you at home." ”
Then he looked at the two of them again and said, "They have grown so tall." Are you okay at home?"
Lu Yuehong interjected: "Don't worry, don't look at you don't want these two girls, as long as I am at home, I won't wronged the two of them, those boys have, they all have it, don't treat them as outsiders." ”
Gao Jin felt even more guilty in his heart, and said, "Mom, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't ......"
Lu Yuehong waved her hand and said, "Forget it, forget it, I don't know you yet!" As soon as his temper came up, he didn't care about anything, your father also told me, he talked to you on the phone, and now it's good to be back. ”
Zhou Lihong also said: "Yes, sister, it's good that you're back, don't mention the previous things, let's go home together, the family is ready, as long as the people who are in Qingdao today, they will come back for dinner, Uncle Liu and the people over there are also here, welcome you home." ”
came to pick up Gao Jin and a few juniors, and they all came to call their aunt, and it was very lively for a while, and then Gao Zhen said: "Sister, are those two your colleagues!"
Gao Jin then remembered that he had patronized and talked to his family just now, and forgot about Ouyang Longxing and Chen Jingang, and they probably didn't want to leave without saying hello, but they waited on the side, and hurriedly went over and said: "Master Ouyang, Head Chen, I'm really embarrassed, I ......"
Ouyang Longxing said with a smile: "Mayor Gao, it's good that your family is reunited, congratulations." ”
Gao Jin introduced them to each other, because they are all veterans, so they don't see each other, Ouyang Longxing and Chen Jingang are called Aunt Lu Yuehong, Gao Jin is called Gao Huilan, and Gao Huifang is called uncle, so they know each other. When Ouyang Longxing was in Jinzhou, he knew that Gao Jin had adopted two daughters, and he also prepared two small gifts, two wood-carved ponies, for the two sisters.
After everyone was polite to each other again, Ouyang Longxing and Chen Jingang said goodbye to Gao Jin, and Lu Yuehong said: "Don't go, if there is no one else at home, go home with us and have a light meal." ”
Ouyang Longxing said with a smile: "Auntie, if your family is reunited, we won't bother, and we will go to see you again in a few days when we are free." He said to Gao Jin again: "Mayor Gao, if your family is reunited, we won't bother." ”
Gao Jin nodded and said, "Senior Commander Ouyang, it's really inconvenient today, I'll find a place to treat me in two days." ”
Ouyang Longxing also nodded and said, "Okay, Mayor Gao, then let's go first." After saying that, Ouyang Longxing and Chen Jingang left with their own guards.
And Gao Jin said to Lu Yuehong: "Mom, let's go back." ”
Lu Yuehong said: "Do they have a home in Qingdao?"
Gao Jin said: "It seems that there is no home, I remember that the two of them have not yet started a family." ”
Lu Yuehong said: "Dead girl, even if everyone hasn't started a family yet, why do you want people to leave, they are all veterans, and they are your colleagues, so I finally went back to Qingdao and asked them to go to the house to have a meal together! Otherwise, let them go back and only go to the canteen to eat! Why don't you understand this idea." ”
Gao Jin frowned and said, "Mom, what are you talking about?" ”
Zhou Lihong hurriedly said: "Mom, today it is clear that our family is holding a family banquet reunion, all of them are their own family, and people are embarrassed to come to the house for dinner! Didn't they say, come to see you at home in a few days, I said that my sister doesn't need to invite guests outside, just invite them to dinner at home, and then call Dad back, we all know each other, isn't this good?"
Lu Yuehong nodded and said, "That's the same reason." He said to Gao Jin: "In two days, I will invite the two of them to come to the house for dinner." ”
Gao Jin was also a little crying and laughing, she just said a kind word just now, how could my mother take it seriously, but the mother and daughter had just met, and she didn't want to go against her mother, so she also followed Lu Yuehong's tone and said: "Okay, okay, when we are done with things in a few days, I will invite them to the house for dinner." ”
Lu Yuehong didn't say anything, and said, "Okay, go home." ”
Gao Jin instructed his entourage to bring all his luggage and belongings and send them to his home, and asked Gao Zhen to arrange a guest house for them to live and rest. then took a daughter in one hand and went home with Lu Yuehong and others.
