In April, the weather in the provincial capital has already begun to get hot.

Dongmei has nothing to do and watches TV at home.

Suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door, and Dongmei's heart beat violently.

Although Dongmei has a serious heart disease, Dongmei's heart has been very good since Taotao joined the oil production team and Nana and Fang Fang talked about marriage.

Dongmei clutched her heart and sat up from the sofa.

She walked to the door, looked at it on the cat's eye, and found that the person standing at the door and knocking on the door turned out to be Wei Guo.

Dongmei angrily opened the door, she reprimanded Wei Guo, and said, "You usually come down from the mountain, don't you always carry the key with you?"

Wei Guo heard Dongmei reprimand him for knocking on the door too loudly, Wei Guo not only did not get angry, but said happily: "Usually, when I come back, I am in a normal mood, but this time I came back, I was in a very good mood, so when I was excited, I lost the key." ”

Hearing that Wei Guo didn't care about it and lost the key to the door of the house, Dongmei had a green face and said worriedly: "How can you lose such an important thing as the key, what if someone else picks it up and steals our house, or robs it?"

Wei Guo walked into the door, he stretched his waist, and said: "The key I lost in northern Shaanxi, this is the provincial capital of Guanzhong, can the people of northern Shaanxi still be so magical that they can take the key of our house, run to the provincial capital, find our house, and then come in to steal things, you think too bizarre, right?"

Hearing that Weiguo was losing the key in northern Shaanxi, Dongmei stopped talking.

He poured Wei Guo a glass of water, then gave Wei Guo his key and said, "It's over, you go to the door with one." “

Wei Guo took the key, looked at Dongmei mysteriously, and said, "You don't ask, why did I come back this time and be so excited to lose the key?"

Dongmei was used to this kind of life of separation between the two places, and she didn't feel that there was any reason to excite Wei Guo.

In the past, when she was young, whenever Wei Guo came back from the mountain, Dongmei would be excited, after all, her husband, who she hadn't seen for a long time, came back.

But now, when Dongmei saw Wei Guo come back, he was not only not excited, but sometimes he was annoyed to watch.

Dongmei sat on the sofa, continued to watch TV, and said, "How else can I drop, of course, I can go home for vacation again, and I don't have to work in the mountains." ”

Wei Guo came to Dongmei's side, he smiled and said, "Why is this thought of yours always so narrow-minded, think about it again." ”

Dongmei watched TV, she watched it just right, she didn't want Weiguo to disturb her, so she said: "There are steamed buns in the kitchen basin, if you are hungry, take them and eat them." ”

Wei Guo saw that Dongmei ignored him, so he told Dongmei the truth: "Dongmei, let me tell you, what you have been looking forward to all your life is finally going to happen." ”

Compared with Wei Guo, who spoke excitedly, Dongmei said calmly: "People who are about to retire, what else can I look forward to." ”

Wei Guo saw that Dongmei was not excited, he raised his voice and said: "Dongmei, I have worked in the mountains all my life, and now, I have finally been transferred from the front line to logistics. “

Hearing this, Dongmei, who was watching TV, hadn't reacted for a long time.

However, when he reacted, she immediately froze.

Dongmei was surprised, she suddenly stood up and watched Wei Guo grow her mouth.

Suddenly, Dongmei, who had never stuttered, actually stuttered.

She squeezed a few words out of her mouth and said, "You just ...... Say what?"

Wei Guo saw that he had finally attracted Dongmei's attention, and he said excitedly: "Dongmei, I have been working on the front line since I was in my early twenties, and I am separated from you, so I can't educate my children, care about you, and take care of my parents......

Now, at the age of fifty-five, I have finally moved from the front line of oil work to logistics ......"

As he spoke, Wei Guo suddenly choked up.

Dongmei couldn't believe that what she had been looking forward to all her life had finally happened thirty years later.

Dongmei couldn't believe that what was happening in front of her was true, she said: "Weiguo, don't lie to me, have you really been transferred to logistics?"

Wei Guo nodded frantically, he must have added: "Dongmei, I didn't lie to you, recently the cementing company established a subsidiary, Gude Company, and I was ordered to be transferred to Gude Company as a technical director." ”

Dongmei immediately asked: "Where is the headquarters of Gude Company, and where are you going to work in logistics?"

Wei Guo pointed in the direction of the north and said, "The headquarters of Gude Company is set up in Gaoling, and I live at home and work in Gaoling."

From now on, I'll work from 9 to 5 every day, and as long as I get off work, I can go home. ”

Wei Guo began to boil in the front line of oil work in his twenties, and finally survived to logistics work at the age of fifty-five.

Dongmei said with emotion: "Weiguo, you finally don't have to go up the mountain to work?"

Wei Guo, who was choked up just now, suddenly became happy again.

He said: "To be honest, I, an old oilman who has worked on the front line of oil all my life and struggled all my life, when I heard Manager Li's order to let me come back to work, I was a little unacceptable, and I was a little reluctant to accept this loess mountain in northern Shaanxi." ”

Dongmei nodded, she looked at Wei Guo, she said excitedly: "It's good to be back, it's good to be back, after all, you are fifty-five years old, if you continue to fight on the front line, you may not be able to do it." ”

Hearing Dongmei say that she was powerless, Wei Guo dried Dongmei's muscles and said: "Who said that I can't do it, if I am allowed to cement the well, I can go 24 hours without sleeping." ”

Listening to Wei Guo's words, Dong Mei patted Wei Guo's shoulder and said, "Since you are back, then enjoy life, rest more, and try to adapt to this 9-to-5 life as soon as possible." ”

After speaking, Dongmei recalled her life with Wei Guo for a lifetime.

Since Dongmei followed Weiguo and came out of her hometown in the countryside, she has always lived alone with two children in the family home.

And Wei Guo worked in the mountains.

Two people, one on the mountain and one in the family home at the bottom of the mountain, see each other two or three times a year at most.

Dongmei is a woman at home, not only to take care of her two children, but also to deal with everything.

The light bulb was broken, and Dongmei changed it herself.

The door was broken, and Dongmei repaired it herself.

The liquefied gas cylinder ran out of gas, and Dongmei carried it to change it herself.

The child was sick, and Dongmei carried the small one on her back and led the big one to the hospital to see the child.

In the days when Wei Guo was not at home, Dongmei was a woman who learned almost all the work of men, and even learned the work that all women could not do.

This kind of day is a few decades in the past.

Dongmei used to be particularly envious of the men who worked in logistics, at least they could take care of their families, their wives and children.

In that era when there were no telephones, no mobile phones, and no Internet, the life of separation between the two places was really exactly the same as life without a husband.

Dongmei also eagerly looked forward to it, hoping that Weiguo could be transferred from the front line to logistics and let herself live with her husband.

However, when Dongmei looked forward to it from her youth to middle age, and then to old age from middle age, she finally couldn't look forward to it and was ready to give up, Wei Guo was transferred back to logistics.

A young man in his early twenties is now a fifty-five-year-old man.

Dongmei looked at Wei Guo, for this belated happiness, she felt that God really favored herself.
