Chapter 157 New Year's Preparations (II)

When Qiao Lin was dragged home by Mrs. Wei for dinner, Qiao Jianjun was cleaning in the store alone, he was wiping the family photo, and suddenly a guest came to the door. He put the family portrait on the table and greeted him.

"Little girl, this place was closed a few days ago, you can go somewhere else to eat!"

The person who came was a girl in a black coat, and eighty percent was an outsider. Because in the middle of winter, the people of Hong Kong City hardly wear coats, because the wind is too strong, the snow is coming, and the coats cannot withstand the severe cold.

The girl had just untied her scarf and looked a little disappointed. She looked haggard, her eyes were red, and she looked like she had just experienced a sad event. She sneezed twice, shivering with cold.

Qiao Jianjun couldn't bear it, and said, "Forget it, you warm up here first, and I'll make you something to eat." ”

"Then thank you boss. ”

"Look at the menu on the wall, what flavor do you want to eat?"

"Uh...... Let's have a bowl of shrimp and shiitake mushrooms!"

Qiao Jianjun went to the back kitchen to get busy, the girl took off her hat and gloves, and the outline gradually became clear. She is Qiao Nan's nightmare, and she is also the Hanfu young lady that Qiao Lin met by chance in Germany-Wen Jing.

She looked curiously at the wonton restaurant, which was a small shop in the market, but it was warmly and elegantly furnished. When Qiao Jianjun brought out the wontons, she asked, "Boss, can I take a few photos?"

"What is there to shoot here?

Wen Jing chose a few angles, took a few photos, and took a few more photos of the wontons before giving up.

Facing Qiao Jianjun's surprised gaze, she explained: "Boss, I run a travel account, and I usually share some food or something on the account, and I want to do a travel guide to the port city in the next issue, I heard that your wontons here are particularly delicious, so I plan to put them in." ”

Qiao Jianjun heard it in a fog, after all, their generation was too far away from the Internet. He didn't know how powerful the online propaganda was, and he didn't pay much attention to what Wen Jing said.

Qiao Jianjun asked casually: "You're from out of town, right?"

"Yes, I just came back from England, and I came to Hong Kong City to see it before the Chinese New Year. ”

Qiao Jianjun praised twice: "It's not easy to study abroad alone!"

"I was sent abroad at the age of sixteen, and I'm used to being abroad. Actually, it's good to be outside, at least it's clean. ”

Qiao Jianjun quipped: "What's the matter, you are so young, and you still have so many worries in China?"

"Hmm...... For example, fighting for family property or something. Wen Jing saw that Qiao Jianjun was amiable, so she felt close and opened the conversation little by little.

Qiao Jianjun was dumbfounded, he didn't know anything about the housework of this big family! What's more, the three children of their family were obedient and sensible, united and friendly, and they couldn't wait to send it home after earning money to fight for property?

Qiao Jianjun asked, "How many children do you have?"

"I have two younger brothers, born to two stepmothers. ”

Wen Jing ate the wontons and said naturally. But this sentence is a bit informative, Qiao Jianjun couldn't slow down for a while, this family relationship was really beyond his understanding. So, he changed the conversation and asked, "Why did you come to Hong Kong City?"

Wen Jing was silent for a moment and said, "My mother is buried here. ”

......

Qiao Jianjun finally found a topic, but was talked about to death again.

"When I was very young

Wait, my parents were arguing fiercely, and my mother took me to Hong Kong City. Later, my mother passed away, and my father brought me back to Beijing. Wen Jing smiled: "The situation in our family is very complicated, and ordinary people can't understand it." ”

Qiao Jianjun said in his heart, this little girl said lightly, but her life was bitter enough, and she didn't know how much sadness she had experienced behind her. He asked, "Do you remember where you used to live?"

Wen Jing said: "It seems that in a government compound, my grandfather was still alive at that time, and I went to a government kindergarten, and before the kindergarten was finished, I went back to Beijing with my father." ”

She added, "But I've been here, and my mother brought me here." This road is called Jixiang Road, and the name is very peculiar, so I remember it very well. ”

"Do you have any relatives on this street?"

"I don't know, I just remember that my mother said that she was here to pay off the debt, and I don't remember the rest. ”

Wen Jing ate a few bites of the wontons, gave a thumbs up, and praised the taste of the wontons. When she was about to finish eating, she said: "This place has changed so much, when I used to come here, I don't remember any high-rise buildings, just a large area of bungalows." After so many years, it has become more and more prosperous. ”

"Yes, the houses used to be cheap and there were a lot of workers living here, but then they were slowly demolished, and the front row was not demolished. Since last year, the Hong Kong city government has begun to develop tourism, and I estimate that this row of houses is about to be demolished, after all, it is too dilapidated and affects the city's appearance. ”

Wen Jing sighed and said: "Demolition and demolition, all the atmosphere of the market has been demolished, and the history of the city has been demolished...... All traces of my mother are gone - boss, I'm done, check out!"

The small bowl of wontons is only three yuan and five thousand bowls, Wen Jing shouted that the price is too affordable, and it must be well promoted. After she finished settling the account, Qiao Jianjun chased after her, handed her a bag of things, and said: "I wrapped a lot of dumplings stuffed with mackerel, this is a specialty of our port city, originally, I kept it for my son, but ...... I want to give you a little. It's not easy for people to live, so try to be kind to yourself. On the night of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, give yourself a bowl of dumplings; on the first day of the new year, you will make another bowl. Say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, and you can have good luck in the new year. ”

Wen Jing looked at the bag of dumplings and said after a while: "I will definitely eat it well, thank you!"

"Also, you can often go back to Hong Kong City to miss your mother, which shows that you are a good boy with affection and righteousness. The port city has changed a lot, and the traces of your mother are disappearing little by little, but there is nothing to be afraid of. As long as you have it in your heart, you always think about it, it's better than anything else. ”

“...... Hmm!" Wen Jing nodded emphatically.

"Don't come in winter next time, it's too cold in the harbor city. If winter comes, wear a thicker down jacket and don't catch a cold!"

"Thank you!" Wen Jing bowed deeply at Qiao Jianjun before turning around and leaving. It's really cold in winter, but now ...... She felt very warm. The mackerel dumplings in your hand must be very delicious.

After Wen Jing left, Qiao Jianjun continued to clean, and the photos of the family photos were put up again. The son in the photo was smiling brightly, Qiao Jianjun poked him lightly, and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, I'll see you in a few days!"

At about seven o'clock in the evening, Li Lanzhi came back first, she went to Nanshan Cemetery, and sent a bouquet of flowers to Xue Dongmei. Nanshan Cemetery is far away from the city, and it takes more than two hours each way, so Li Lanzhi is also tired enough. Qiao Jianjun set the table and nagged: "You just let Linlin accompany you, and someone else will be your companion." ”

"With other classmates with me, I don't want Jolene to go. She's still a little girl

Where can she run to the cemetery every day?"

Qiao Jianjun thought about it, too, Qiao Lin had just gone to her hometown to go to the grave, and then went to the cemetery, which was indeed a bit unlucky.

The husband and wife ate and talked a lot, but in the end, the central idea fell on the son's lifelong events. Qiao Nan has never forgotten Xue Dongmei, the pimple in his heart has always been there, and if this continues, he will definitely suffer from mental illness. As soon as they thought of this, the old couple was so worried that they couldn't sleep.

Qiao Jianjun said: "You have so many students, so there is no suitable introduction to him?"

"I did have a crush on the last one, and I'm still observing. ”

"Who?" Qiao Jianjun's ears pricked up.

"Jinjinzi, do you remember that little girl, who is tall, with a face like a red apple, the one who was a member of Qiao Nan's class. ”

Qiao Jianjun remembered: "I have the impression that he is indeed tall and looks very thoughtful, is his home still in the gold mine?"

When she was in the second middle school, I was quite optimistic about her, she was bold, bold and careful, and a good hand inside and out. Now that she's graduated from college, she's in charge of project development at the mobile headquarters, and she's doing a good job! I think she's interesting to our son, but she's embarrassed to express it. ”

Qiao Jianjun was worried: "The girl is so good, can she take a fancy to Qiao Nan?

Li Lanzhi said: "Isn't our son excellent? I have figured it out, this time I went to see him, we must do his ideological work, and if he didn't work at the grassroots level for several years, he could go to graduate school? Let him be admitted to Beijing and stay in Beijing to work in the future, and as long as he is still in the army, he will not object. ”

Qiao Jianjun's eyes lit up: "Yes, our son is also very studious, this road is good!

The old couple seemed to have conspired to become a big thing, and tacitly touched the wine glass. Unexpectedly, the sliding door was opened suddenly, and a figure jumped in happily, and she asked excitedly, "What are you two going to match?"

Li Lanzhi scolded with a smile: "It's okay if your ears are long!" By the way, are you full? Would you like to eat more?"

"No!" Jolene ate too much and ran too fast, giving her a long burp. Without waiting for her parents to nag, she said eagerly: "Dad, you can also make taro rice for me in the future! Grandma Chenglin has made it delicious! The taro is steamed with rice, and there are beans and ham in it, not to mention how fragrant it is, I ate two bowls!"

"Okay, when I finish watching your brother, I'll do it for you when I come back! You, you have to be a little restrained, and you don't practice aerobics anymore, this little face is getting rounder and rounder!"

"Who said I was too thin?"

Jolene lay on her father's back, grinning and coquettish. The house is warm, and outside, fireworks are blooming in the sky above this small town.

Tomorrow will be the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the morning after tomorrow, they will set off to see their brother. Qiao Jianjun's traditional concept is extremely deep, and he abides by the rules handed down by his ancestors every New Year. And this time they chose to set off on the first day of the Lunar New Year, which surprised everyone. It's not because they can only buy tickets for the first day of the Lunar New Year, but Qiao Jianjun hides his careful thoughts-

He really misses his son, and he wants to see him as soon as possible, the sooner the better.

Li Lanzhi and Qiao Lin pretended not to see through his thoughts, and each prepared to go, but they had the same expectations in their hearts.
