Chapter 169: Going Home
The next day, Chen Le took the train back to Jiangnan.
Before leaving, he also went to the town to buy some small gifts to bring to his uncle and aunt.
After taking the train for more than a day and arriving in Jiangnan, Chen Le went to a small hotel first.
Of course, it wasn't anything strange, he took a shower, shaved off his beard, changed into clean clothes, looked in the mirror, felt that his hair was a little long, and went to cut his head again, and then set off to Tang Yanting's house.
Chen Le didn't know what kind of psychology he was now.
With these gifts, he dressed up cleanly and happily went to see Tang Yanting, Yu Fang.
I don't say that I will return to my hometown.
After all, it's not that good.
Maybe it's because I made a little money, and I used my own ability to sleep in the open air, day by night, and hard work.
Prove yourself that you will also make money in the future.
So, I'm still a little happy in my heart.
In layman's terms, there is a feeling of "finally standing up".
Moreover, in the past, whenever he walked downstairs in this community, Chen Le would stand for a while to calm down, and his heart would beat faster, very nervous, and very scared.
Now I've been training outside for two months, I've experienced a lot of things, I've seen a lot of people, I've experienced a lot of dangers, and now I can stand downstairs calmly.
This is actually a big step forward for Chen Le.
While going upstairs, Chen Le thought about the reason and felt that he might be more confident, and he was also convinced that he had the strength and ability to repay his uncle and aunt for their nurturing kindness, so he was very calm.
Chen Le's good mood lasted until he went upstairs and came to the door.
Then, stunned!
Because in front of this ordinary gate, it is a little different from the past.
A white curtain hung on the top of the door, and in the middle was a large paper flower.
Chen Le was still stunned and looked at it, and didn't understand why he hung this, wasn't it just hung when someone else's family was doing a funeral?
He didn't think about it at all because his uncles and aunts were very young and healthy, not to mention Xiaoqian, Xiaoyan.
Although when he was a child, he also hid silently in the quilt, cursing Tang Xiaoqian for being hit by a car when she went out, being stoned to death by a vase while walking, choking to death when eating, and choking to death when she drank water.
He rang the doorbell.
I didn't hear anything from inside the door this time.
Chen Le wondered if Tang Xiaoqian had gone out to play.
After all, she is on vacation, she must have gone crazy somewhere, otherwise, she should be lying on the sofa now, eating potato chips and other snacks, watching Korean dramas.
After waiting for about 3 minutes, I heard a "click" sound of opening the door.
It was Tang Yanting's door.
Chen Le smiled and said hello, "Hello uncle." ”
"Xiaole, you're back, come in, come in. ”
"Well, just came back, uncle, I brought you and auntie some gifts. ”
Chen Le hurriedly handed over a few bags in his hand.
Tang Yanting also nodded and took it, and said softly, "It's good to come back, don't bring any gifts next time." ”
"Hmm. ”
Chen Le answered and entered the door.
When I entered the door, I found that something was wrong, and there seemed to be some white banners in the house.
The house is a little too white.
Immediately, I realized that Tang Yanting's face was not right, the dark circles under his eyes were very heavy, there were bloodshot in his eyes, he was listless, and he had a lot more white hair, but it was only two months, but he seemed to be more than ten years old.
Chen Le had to ask, "Uncle, is there something wrong at home, these banners are hanging, are they ...... Have any elders gone west? ”
Chen Le thought it was Tang Yanting or the elders of Yu Fang's family, who had died.
When Tang Yanting heard this, his eyes trembled, he opened his mouth to say something, then shook his head again, and said in a choked voice, "Let's sit down first." ”
"Oh. ”
Before Chen Le could go in, he found Tang Xiaoqian coming out of the room.
Tang Xiaoqian glanced at Chen Le coldly, and said sharply, "What are you doing when you come back, why don't you die outside, why didn't you die!"
“......”
Because of the same bad attitude as always, Chen Le is also used to it.
The only strange thing is that I feel that Tang Xiaoqian is a little haggard, didn't she sleep well last night, her hair is exuding, and she also has heavy dark circles under her eyes, and it is 6 o'clock at night now, she is still wearing pajamas, so she won't just get up.
Chen Le didn't answer.
Tang Yanting replied with a little stern, "Don't talk nonsense, if you're hungry, let's eat first." ”
After speaking, I remembered that I didn't cook today.
"Wait, you sit on the sofa first, watch TV, and I'll let your aunt cook." ”
Chen Le felt that something was wrong, it was 6 o'clock in the evening at home, and he hadn't cooked yet, and there was no light at home, which was really gloomy.
I feel that Tang Yanting and Tang Xiaoqian are all exposed to a thick haze.
Tang Yanting took a not very steady step, opened the bedroom door, and said to Yu Fang, "It's night, it's time to cook." ”
An impatient voice immediately came from the room, "Eat, eat, what else to eat, what is there to eat, and now you still eat?"
Tang Yanting replied calmly, "Ah Le is back." ”
Yu Fang replied even more unceremoniously, "What is he doing when he comes back, it's okay to die outside, my daughter is gone, I still care about him, why didn't he die, woo~~~~"
Chen Le was still thinking when he heard the first half of the sentence, the two of them deserved to be mother and daughter, and they both said the same thing, but they didn't feel right when they heard the second half of the sentence.
What the...... Isn't Xiaoqian here......
At this point, Chen Le finally reacted.
"That, by the way, Xiaoyan, where is Sister Yan......"
Tang Yanting didn't answer.
When Tang Xiaoqian heard Xiao Yan's name, her eyes trembled obviously.
As soon as the circles under his eyes were red, tears began to fall.
That reaction made Chen Le's heart suddenly tighten, and there was a feeling of suffocation in his chest.
Contacting Baitiao at home again, he finally had to think about the worst, and the aspect he was least willing to think about.
Chen Le just stared at Tang Xiaoqian and asked again, "Is Sister Yan still working?"
Speaking of Tang Xiaoyan, Chen Le's ears seemed to be able to recall Tang Xiaoyan's playful tone, her smiling appearance, and of course, the seductive perfume smell of a mature big sister on her body.
"Dead!"
Tang Xiaoqian's two words shattered all Chen Le's impressions of Tang Xiaoyan like a broken mirror.
Chen Le felt like he had been hit with a heavy hammer in his chest, and he was unsteady on his feet, took two steps back in succession, and almost fell to the ground.
After a pause, Chen Lecai smiled hard at Tang Xiaoqian, and said with a stiff face, "I know you want to scare me, even if I die, Sister Yan won't ......."
Tang Xiaoqian stared at Chen Le with an expressionless face, and said in a wooden tone, "Jumped off the building and died!"
"What, what ......"
"I called you, 9 out of 10 times I couldn't get through, and now my sister has an accident, you are willing to come back, you will die outside." ”
After Tang Xiaoqian finished speaking angrily, she glared at Chen Le again, and then went back to the room.
After entering the door, I shook the door hard, and the sound of "bang" closing the door also shook the whole house, as if it was shaking.
Chen Le felt a little dizzy and turned his gaze, looked at Tang Yanting who came out of the room, opened his mouth, and asked with dry lips, "Uncle, Sister Yan......"
Tang Yanting's lips trembled, then lowered his gaze, shook his head slightly, and changed the subject, "Your aunt, I've been a little sad lately, don't be like her, uncle, burn some noodles for you to eat." ”
With that, he walked towards the kitchen.
It's just that he is lying on his back, and his pace is quite unsteady, and it looks like he has lost half of his three souls and seven spirits, and he has no strength.
Before he could take a few steps, his feet slipped, and the whole person was thrown to the side, almost hitting his head on the table next to him.
Chen Le hurriedly took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand to grab Tang Yanting, "Uncle, are you okay?" ”
"No, it's okay, it's just a little dizzy, it's okay. ”
Tang Yanting waved his hand, trying to stand up straight and stabilize his body.
"Uncle, Sister Yan......"
"Tomorrow, I'll take you to meet Xiaoyan, Xiaoyan, you are a good boy, and she treats you as a younger brother, she must miss you. ”
"Going...... Where do you look?"
"It's at Zhongshan Cemetery. ”
“......”
Chen Le suddenly felt that his head was blank and he didn't know anything......
