Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Return
The night slowly faded from Pinghai City, and the hazy morning star in the sky gradually disappeared into the clouds, and the morning fog had not yet dispersed, and through the mist, a few golden rays of light shot out.
The traffic lights on the long street are lit from east to west, the shops on both sides of the street are opened, and various breakfast stalls appear in the streets, lingering in the steaming heat, and those who go to work and school crowd the buses towards their respective destinations.
Fang Ning walked around the community on the road outside the Haitianjing Garden community for morning exercises, braving white heat coming out of his nose, and with each deep breath swallowed, the well-developed body also began to show the rudiments of strength.
After running around the neighborhood three times, he slowed down and moved his sour hands and feet towards the neighborhood. At the same time, the security guard who kept vigil all night in the guard room was yawning with sleepy eyes open, compared to his lifelessness, Fang Ning had the unparalleled vigor and vigor of a young man. He looked at Fang Ning's back as he greeted the golden sunset, and couldn't help but feel a little envious, "It's good to be young!"
Chen Hailin was chatting with Fang Jiefang and others on the sofa in the living room, Fang Ning poked his head in, said hello to the thief, and hid in the room.
"Xiaohai, we can't trouble you anymore, we'll be ready to go back later, thank you for your hospitality these days. Fang Longxing said gently, although Xiaohai is good, it is a pity that he is not his own son, otherwise he will really treat him as his own.
"That's as it should be. Chen Hailin got up and poured tea for the two elders, sat back on the sofa, lit a cigarette for the two of them, and said with a smile, "Daddy Long and Uncle Xie, you really don't plan to stay for a few more days, after all, it's not easy to come here." ”
Fang Jiefang shook his head, "It's been too much trouble for you in the past two days, besides, we still have things, so it's not good to delay." ”
Chen Hailin thought that they had important matters to deal with when they came to the county, and it would not be good for him to keep them any longer, so he didn't persuade them to stay for a few more days. Li Mu came over with a black packaging bag and said softly, "Two uncles, we don't have anything good here, this is the tea made in my hometown, you must accept it." ”
"That's right, this bit of Mao Dian tea was brought by my wife from her hometown in Guzheng County, Xiangxi, which is a little heart. Chen Hailin said.
Fang Jiefang hurriedly got up, took the tea, and knew that there were always these things in human relations, since it was sent by the juniors, he was embarrassed to refuse, and said in a deep voice, "I have a heart, we keep this intention in our hearts, and next time I come to Shanshu Village, I must come to our house as a guest." ”
"Definitely, definitely. ”
So the adults were polite again, and the guests were satisfied.
Fang Ning saw the heavy politeness of the adults in the crack of the door, thinking that fortunately, he was still young, so he didn't have to deal with these things, his personality was originally lazy, he was most afraid of trouble, and he couldn't accept guests if he didn't accept guests, but he was the eldest grandson of the family, and he would have to do this when he grew up in the future, it was a matter of time or time.
However, he also understands that Chen Hailin's family is so enthusiastic about them, in addition to the original kinship, it is more or less purposeful, fortunately, these are the means of relatives and friends, and he doesn't feel inappropriate.
"It's time to go home now, and it's a bit of a pity that I forgot to go to Martyrs' Park yesterday. "Fang Wei is still young, he doesn't understand the politeness of adults, and he doesn't see it as thoroughly as Fang Ning, but he has no heart and lungs, which is quite a sense of being outsider, compared to Fang Ning, he is not so free and easy.
After eating at noon, take a lunch break, and wait until the sun is not so hot, Fang Jiefang walked into the bedroom to wake up Fang Ning and Fang Wei, and prepared to start going home.
"Whoa, home, home!"
"Hey, yes, I'm the one from yesterday, uh-huh, you can come to Wanjiafu Supermarket when you have time, okay, that's it." Fang Jiefang contacted the truck driver, agreed on a location, and set off together.
Chen Hailin sent them to Wanjiafu Supermarket near Tianyue Square, chatted a few more words, and then turned back.
The box truck arrived slowly, Fang Ning and the others got into the car, and because the co-pilot at the front of the car couldn't sit so many people, Fang Jiefang and the two reached a round-trip bus back.
Haitianjing Garden Community, Chen Hailin's house.
After sending Fang Ning and them away, Chen Hailin lay on the sofa, lit a cigarette and smoked slowly, the smoke was filling, just as he finished smoking and was about to squint for a while, Li Mu walked out quickly from the bedroom where Fang Ning and the others slept before, and the expression on his face changed slightly.
"Uncle Long, it seems that they forgot to take something with them!" Li Mu hesitated.
"Huh, what did you fall on?"
"See for yourself. Li Mu didn't say it explicitly, just asked him to go and see it.
Chen Hailin put on his shoes and got up, walked into the bedroom quickly, and saw boxes of items placed next to the bed, one of which had been torn open, and it could be seen that there were bags of rice inside, which seemed to be hundreds of catties, in addition to these, there were also flour, antibiotics, first-aid drugs and other medical drugs.
"Why are they so careless and drop things!?" Chen Hailin stomped his feet, with an anxious look on his face, turned around and trotted out, picked up the phone on the coffee table and dialed it.
"Hey, Uncle Xie, your things have been left in our house, where have you been? Oh, you're in Meixian, aren't you? Why don't I send them to you another day?" Chen Hailin kept talking on the other side of the phone, and his expression soon changed.
After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone and showed a complicated expression to his wife Li Mu.
"What's wrong?" asked Li Mu.
"Uncle Xie said that this thing was specially reserved for us, and said that we should not use it for the first time and keep it well. Chen Hailin had a puzzled expression, he couldn't understand what the mystery was in sending these things, after all, it was just some rice and medical medicines, and they could also be bought on the street, and they were not rare.
"Then let's keep it for now, maybe Uncle Xie is embarrassed to come back and get it. Li Mu pondered and comforted her husband, anyway, these things are not money, and they are given by relatives, and they are not bribes.
"It's okay, pile it up and put it here first, don't move around, and we'll bring it back to the countryside for the New Year. Chen Hailin said.
"Then do it. Li Mu nodded.
