Huang Lirong did not tell her family that she was coming back, and planned to surprise her parents.

"I didn't tell my parents, they never let me come back, especially my father, who always held up in front of me, no matter what happened, he didn't want me to worry. If I had to tell them I wanted to come back, they wouldn't have allowed it. ”

In front of me is a small building with a mottled façade, a total of four floors, this small building looks very dilapidated, like a product of the seventies and eighties of the last century, all kinds of wires are exposed.

"Your parents live in a house like this. ”

Huang Lirong said: "No, let them move to the new house I bought for them, the decoration has been renovated for several years, but they just don't want to, they like to live in this old house of more than 60 square meters." ”

Luo Xu took the fruit he bought from the car and said, "Don't stand downstairs, let's go up." Your parents would be happy to know you're back. ”

The nostalgia is even more timid, Huang Lirong realized the meaning of this sentence at the moment, standing downstairs, looking at this familiar and unfamiliar unit building, she suddenly didn't dare to go up. From her birth to the present, she has watched the building in front of her slowly become dilapidated and old, and watched her parents grow young and old. The world is changing, everyone and things are changing, but there are always some changes that are heart-wrenching and difficult to accept.

"Let's go, let's go up, my family lives on the third floor. ”

It's dark in the corridor, the lights are broken, during the day, it's gloomy, and at night, it's dark when you can't see your fingers.

Coming to the third floor, Huang Lirong took a deep breath, raised her hand, and was just about to knock on the door when the door opened.

The door opened, and Luo Xu saw an old lady with short hair, about sixty years old, her hair had been dyed with a layer of frost, and wrinkles were crawling all over her face.

She is Huang Lirong's mother Zhao Yuxiu, and at the first glance of her, Luo Xu felt that the mother and daughter were really alike, at least 80% similar in appearance.

"Mom......"

Seeing her mother, Huang Lirong couldn't help but feel pantothenic acid in her heart, and with the sound of "Mom", tears also slipped down.

"Rongrong ......"

When her daughter suddenly appeared in front of her, Zhao Yuxiu was stunned for a moment, "Why did you come back?"

"I'll come back to see you and my dad. Huang Lirong hugged her mother, and the mother and daughter hugged each other tightly.

After a while, the two separated.

"Hello Auntie, my name is Luo Xu. ”

Zhao Yuxiu had already noticed the young man standing behind Huang Lirong, and thought that since her daughter had brought him to the house, their relationship must be unusual.

"Rong Rong, who is this?"

Huang Lirong introduced: "Mom, he is my boss, the one I told you." He's my boyfriend now, though. ”

Zhao Yuxiu immediately became much more enthusiastic, and she and her wife had long been looking forward to their daughter being able to talk to someone. Since Huang Lirong graduated from university, they have been looking forward to their daughter finding a wishful husband as soon as possible.

"Xiao Luo, come in quickly, come in quickly. ”

Huang Lirong took Luo Xu's hand and walked into the house, the decoration of the home was still done more than 20 years ago, and many places were old and undaring, but they were very clean.

"Where's my dad?" asked Huang Lirong.

Zhao Yuxiu brought Luo Xu a cup of tea and said, "Your father went to the park early in the morning to walk the birds, and I was about to go out to buy vegetables just now." ”

"My dad, can he get out of bed and walk?" asked Huang Lirong.

Zhao Yuxiu said: "He, the doctor asked him to rest in bed for a few more days, but he was an idle person, saying that he was always lying in bed and was about to suffocate to death, so he went out for a walk." ”

Huang Lirong said: "Mom, then I'll take Luo Xu to the small park to find my father." ”

Zhao Yuxiu said: "Don't worry, wait for Xiao Luo to drink the tea before leaving." ”

Luo Xu said: "Auntie, I'm not thirsty. ”

Huang Lirong was about to pull Luo Xu away, and Zhao Yuxiu asked, "Rong Rong, what kind of dishes does Xiao Luo like to eat?" I'm going to the vegetable market, I'll buy some dishes he likes to eat and come back." ”

Huang Lirong said with a smile: "Mom, you can watch and buy it, anyway, don't be too spicy when cooking vegetables, he can't eat the spicy food we have here." ”

Zhao Yuxiu smiled: "Okay, I remember." ”

The two left the house, walked downstairs, and met Mr. Wang, who lived upstairs. This teacher Wang has also taught Huang Lirong before, but she has also been retired for several years.

"Yo, is this Rong Rong?"

Huang Lirong saw Teacher Wang coming back from grocery shopping, and stepped forward to say hello.

"Teacher Wang, it's me, didn't you move away, why did you come back again?"

Teacher Wang sighed, "Hey, I'm not used to moving over there, it's better to be an old neighbor here, so I'll come back." You're back to see your father, aren't you?"

"yes. Mr. Wang, my dad is in the small park, I'll go find him. Huang Lirong pulled Luo Xu and ran away.

Teacher Wang is a big tongue, and after a while, the whole community will know that the beautiful daughter of Huang Shiyou's family is back.

The small park is very close to Huang Lirong's house, only about 500 meters away. The two walked over and soon arrived.

There are many people who come to the small park for morning exercises, but they are all old and retired. There is a small square in the park, there are even Tai Chi boxers, there are Tai Chi sword dancers, and there are also square dancers, I heard that there have been conflicts because of the land grabbing.

Just to the south of the small square, there are a number of stone tables, each with three stone benches around it. There are people who gather around to listen to the commentary on the radio, and there are also people who play chess and Go together, in short, it is very lively.

Huang Shiyou likes to walk birds, and his activity venue is not here. It's so noisy that people who like to walk birds aren't usually here. To the north of the small park is a quiet place where bird walkers are usually located.

Huang Lirong pulled Luo Xu through the small square and walked along the cobblestone path towards the north side of the park.

After retiring, Huang Shiyou's favorite place to come is this small park, where he has like-minded friends, everyone chats about flowers, birds, fish and insects, and time will pass quickly. He would often stay here until 10 a.m. before going back and then come back around 3 p.m.

Today, Huang Shiyou's mood is very good, for no other reason, but he is inexplicably a little excited, and he vaguely feels like something good is going to happen, and he doesn't know that his baby daughter has returned.

Luo Xu and Huang Lirong came to the place where the old man walking the birds gathered, Huang Lirong didn't walk over and asked, "Luo Xu, can you guess which one is my father?"
