More than ten years is enough to forget what a person looks like, yes, his parents didn't recognize him at first sight, he didn't recognize his parents at first sight, yes, his parents were old and he didn't dare to recognize each other.

When Guan Mian called out a sentence of "Mom and Dad" that he had not called out for more than ten years, all his strength was gone, and his tears poured out, yes! He has been strong for too long, at this moment, he can no longer be strong, in this place where he was born and raised, he does not need to pretend to be strong.

The same is true of the two old men, they would never have thought that their son, who had not been heard from for more than ten years, would suddenly come back, and they thought that they would never have the opportunity to see him again in their lives.

"Where have you been all these years?" The mother hugged Guan Mian's head, crying loudly and beating Guan Mian's back hard, and the father on the side also wiped his tears.

"Mom, I was wrong, I was wrong. Guan Mian knelt at his mother's feet, and at this moment he knew that a man's greatest achievement was not to make people worship you or stand on the most dazzling stage, but to be by their side when their family needed you the most, to help them, and to make them feel more at ease because of you.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Father said as he touched his tears.

Yes, in the eyes of parents, as long as they come back, nothing is more important than coming home.

"I'm going to make you mixed sauce noodles, you love to eat my mixed sauce noodles the most. "My mother still remembered what he liked to eat the most, and she used to make mixed noodles for him to eat.

After so many years, he has forgotten what the taste of his mother's mixed sauce noodles is, and every time he feels homesick and wants his mother outside, he goes to eat a bowl of mixed sauce noodles, but he never makes the taste of his mother outside.

A bowl of mixed sauce noodles made Guan Mian sad for a long time, his tears couldn't be stopped, he didn't want to cry in front of his mother, but at this moment he wouldn't be the Guan Mian who dominated the business war, he will always be a child who needs to be protected in front of his mother, this has nothing to do with his age, as long as his mother is still there, we will never grow up.

"Where have you been all these years, why haven't you heard from you, you know? We have been looking for you so hard! We thought we would never see you again in our lives. After eating the mixed sauce noodles made by my mother, my mother asked what he had been doing for so many years, and he should let his family know no matter what!

"We all thought you had committed a crime and were arrested, we went to the Public Security Bureau to check, and there was no your name. Over the years, we have asked someone to inquire about you, but there is no news at all, as if you have disappeared from the world. Father said.

Guan Mian told his parents how he left home, where he went, and what he was doing now. He left home without saying a word because of a dream, he wanted to see the outside world, but he didn't expect that he would leave for fifteen years, and he had his own home outside. He didn't tell his parents about him and Liu Yue, he was afraid that his parents would not accept Liu Yue, he already had a home here, but this was only in name, but Liu Jian was his daughter, which couldn't be wrong, he didn't know what they would think when they knew that he had a home outside and a son, so he didn't say anything about him and Liu Yue, let alone his son. He told his parents about him and Bi Xinxin, and his parents were silent for a while after listening to it, but they didn't say anything.

"What are you coming back for this time, are you going to leave soon?" Mother knew that Guan Mian would not stay here, and now that he had his own business in Shanghai and a home in Shanghai, it was impossible for him to stay here.

"After all these years, I have never heard from you, the last time a friend of mine came here on a business trip, he told me that you are still alive, I came to see you, and I can rest assured to see that you are still healthy. Over the years, I can't rest assured that you two old people are the two of you, for fear that I will miss you, and today is a dream that has fulfilled me for many years. "Guan Mian just came to see them, and let them know that he was still in this world.

"You have been gone silently for so many years, we have not heard from you, we want to see your people in life, we want to see your corpse in death, we can't see you, we dare not die. Father said to Guan Mian.

His father's words made Guan Mian very embarrassed, and his parents didn't dare to die in order to see him again, and their only hope was to see him again in their lifetimes. And for the sake of his own ideals and in order to appear in front of the world more brilliantly, he left without leaving a word, and this trip was 15 years, don't you know how many fifteen years your parents can live in this world? Compared with his parents, he is really too selfish. In the eyes of the world, he is a successful person, but only he knows that he has lost too much for this so-called success, including violating his conscience.

After meeting his parents, the next thing he has to face is Liu Jian and Guo Meili. This woman has not remarried, nor abandoned this family since he left, and has treated his parents better than her own, and his parents can still wait for him to come back and see him, which is inseparable from her careful care. But how did he treat this woman who was kind to him?

Guan Mian hates himself every time he thinks of Guo Meili, he feels that he is not a thing, he has abandoned a woman who is really good to him, and now what face does he have to see her?

"You go and see Meimei! I've been suffering for her all these years!" his mother seemed to beg and ordered him to go to see Guo Meili.

"I know, I'm going to see her, and I'm going to make her forgive me no matter what she does to me, and now I realize my mistake. Guan Mian understands that it is reasonable for Guo Meili to resent him, after all, it is he who betrayed love and betrayed this family.

"Go over and tell her that Beauty is a reasonable person. Mother said to Guan Mian when Guan Mian was about to go out.

The road connecting the parents' house and the old house has not changed, it is still the same road, but the buildings on the side of the road have changed, and in the past, this road was full of shops and snack shops from all over the world, and people from all over the world gathered together, and every time it was time for dinner, it would become a chaotic market, shouting, bargaining, and the sound of calling for lost children. At that time, there were a lot of mobile stalls selling all kinds of snacks at dinner time, which was a favorite of the children. There are several schools gathered here, and you can see a lot of students gathered in front of each stall, and many people depend on this stall to support their families, and these stalls are no longer seen.

Now that the shops on both sides of the street are gone, the area has been converted into residential buildings, and the street is much quieter than before.

There is a market not far ahead, a bit like the street back then, and as soon as you get close to the market, the familiar noise is heard. Guan Mian didn't know what forces attracted him to walk in, there were a lot of shadows in the market, but compared with that year, there was still something missing. He found that most of the people who appeared in the market now were old people or women at home, and it was rare to see half-grown children chasing in the crowd, and their most enthusiastic thing at that time was to chase each other in the crowd, and they didn't pay attention to the scolding of passers-by, and they didn't stop to put them on the table, and let the boss curse them to die, but no matter how passers-by and the boss cursed them, they still played crazy all day long. Nowadays, there is no such group of children anymore, and there is no longer a playmate to be found.

In an inconspicuous tin room on the edge of the market, there is an old man who is concentrating on sharpening his knife, Guan Mian knows this old man, and when he was a child, the old man had already sharpened his knife. The old man's appearance seems to have not changed, it is still the same as before, except that his hair is much grayer, and a large piece of hair is missing from his forehead, which was shaved off during the trial of the knife. The old man was still wearing the coat of an unrecognizable color, which was stained, and the long stool on which he sharpened his knife was also many years old, and the grinding stone was fixed at one end, and the old man rode at the other end and began to work. He knew since he was a child that the old man had no children and no daughters, so he relied on sharpening his knife to make a living, although the old man lived a poor life, but he was very backbone, he did not want the subsistence allowance given to him by the state, he had to rely on his own labor to support himself.

"Uncle, how much does it cost to sharpen a knife once?" Guan Mian stepped forward and asked the old man who sharpened the knife.

The old man held out two fingers to him, meaning two dollars at a time. The old man squirted water from his mouth onto the grinding stone, and the sludge splattered in all directions, revealing the sharpened blade.

"Do you want to sharpen the knife?" the old man looked at him with a very strange look, which seemed to say, "You don't look like a knife sharpener?" People dressed like him will not come to sharpen the knife even if the knife is blunt, just change it to a new one, it is precisely because the life is better now, there are fewer and fewer people sharpening the knife, and the old man's business has also been affected to a certain extent, but it has not yet reached the point where he can not do it.

Does he still need to sharpen knives in his life? Sharpening knives is just a memory of his childhood, and he asks the old man just to hear the old man's voice, so that the memories of his childhood will stay with him for a while.

Guo Meili packed up and prepared to cook, and it was time for Liu Jian to get out of class in a while. Liu Jian has been eating and living with her now, and since Wang Wei left, she hired a tutor for Liu Jian, and slept here after tutoring at night.

Guan Mian quickly found the old house, which was demolished by Guo Meili and cleaned up a new house, and now the house in this courtyard is rented out to migrant workers who work nearby, or college students who have just graduated from college and have not found a job for a while. This is also the source of all the family's income, Guo Meili relies on these incomes to support the family's life, to provide for Liu Jian to go to school and hire tutors for her. The compound is exactly the same as what Zhou Fei described, there are all kinds of people, although it is daytime, but the sky cannot be seen in the compound, it is gloomy, Guan Mian looked up and found that the courtyard was full of clothes, and the sunlight was cut off by the drying clothes, so it could not be penetrated. Guan Mian couldn't figure out how they hung up, there was a certain distance between the two buildings, and it was not easy to hang the clothes like this.

As soon as Guan Mian entered the door, he saw Guo Meili who was busy working, Guo Meili didn't notice him, Liu Jian was coming back, she was busy cleaning up and cooking.

Judging from the appearance alone, Guo Meili has indeed changed a lot, and fifteen years is enough to make a woman's appearance no longer beautiful. Fifteen years ago, Guo Meimei, like her name, was a well-known beauty in the neighborhood, and people said that he had accumulated virtue in his previous life to marry a wife who was both beautiful and extremely virtuous. But now the years have tormented this beautiful woman to the point that she has no trace of her original appearance, and there is no trace of beauty in her, and now she is a complete housewife, a housewife who will quarrel with others for a long time for a green onion and a garlic. Guan Mian hasn't seen her front yet, presumably her face is full of wrinkles, her eyes are bloodshot, and her hair is messy, blocking her forehead, you must know that Guo Meili has a very beautiful forehead. At that time, she was a very capable girl, she liked to wear sportswear, her hair was combed high, tied in a ponytail at the back, and her beautiful forehead was exposed.

"Hello, are you looking for someone or renting a house?" Guan Mian's thoughts were interrupted by the voice of a young girl. Guan Mian turned around and saw a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old standing in front of him, carrying a very delicate schoolbag on her back, her eyes were bright, and like Guo Meili, this girl had a beautiful forehead. He looked at Liu Jian from head to toe, and he noticed that the way she looked at him was a little unnatural, as if she was looking for a little memory about him in her memory.

Guan Mian recognized it at a glance, this should be his daughter Liu Jian, who has not seen him for fifteen years, she is exactly the same as her mother when she was young, and she can be recognized at a glance.

Liu Jian's words made Guo Meili put down what she was doing, but when she turned around and saw Guan Mian standing in the courtyard, she recognized him at a glance, he was her husband Liu Bo, who had been missing for many years. She didn't know why, when she saw Guan Mian's vicissitudes, her tears fell, the kitchen knife in her hand fell to the ground, and she covered her mouth with both hands to prevent herself from crying.

She has been looking forward to this man in front of her for fifteen years, from the day he left, she has been looking forward to the day he can come back, she doesn't expect him to let her live a prosperous and rich life, she only hopes that when she is vulnerable, she can let her lean on his shoulder, listen to him say a few thoughtful words, even if he doesn't do anything, she is at ease, but she can't even meet these simple wishes. For so many years, there was no news of this man she had been thinking about for a long time, she thought he was dead, she would never see him again in her life, she was looking for him everywhere in the past few years, and in recent years she has also died, as if she had never had him. But now, he suddenly appeared, standing right in front of her, she had always wanted to see him, wanted to talk to him a lot, but when he stood in front of her, she would do nothing but be sad.

Guo Meili finally couldn't control herself, she cried loudly, she has been strong for too long over the years, and now she can't be strong, she doesn't know why Liu Bo suddenly appeared, and she doesn't know how long he will stay here, she doesn't care about these, she just wants to know that he is still alive, and she is satisfied.

Guan Mian put his hand on Guo Meimei's shoulder to comfort her, Guo Meili took Liu Bo's hand away, and forcefully pushed Liu Bo out of the house and locked the door from the inside. Liu Jian saw that her mother was so abnormal, she had never seen her mother cry when she was so old, and she had never seen her mother so sad, today she was so abnormal, she also guessed who this man was.

Seeing Guo Meili so sad, seeing her face no longer young that has been eroded by the years, Guan Mian is very guilty, he owes this woman too much over the years, he doesn't expect her to forgive him, he just wants to help her in the years to come, so that her life can be more comfortable, and let her have a little more smile on her face.

"Open the door! I have a lot to say to you, and all the faults are mine, and if you want to kill or chop me, you can do it. Guan Mian was knocking on the door and talking outside, he saw his parents coming in through the door, they should have interceded for themselves, they knew Guo Meimei's temper better than him.

"Beauty, open the door first, if you have anything to say, sit down and talk about it. Guan Mian's parents said to Guo Meili.

Guo Meili heard the old man's voice, her mood calmed down a lot, no matter what, she couldn't let the old people stand outside the door, the two old people rarely came to her, today she ran over to beg her for her son's business, she couldn't be so ruthless that even the old man turned away. She asked Liu Jian to open the door and let the old man and Liu Bo come in.

Family affection is family affection, no matter how long time has passed, no matter whether there is contact or not, this love is "broken bones and tendons", and it cannot be separated clearly at any time. And at this moment, Guo Meimei's resentment towards Liu Bo was gone, looking at him standing in front of her, she knew that her persistence for so many years was worth it, she could now give an explanation to the two old men, and she could also give Liu Jian an explanation. She has been owing them an explanation for so many years, she always feels that Liu Bo ran away from home, and there is no news because of her, and now that he is back, it is time for him to give everyone an explanation.
