617. Chapter 123
Cheng Hao looked at Xiao Yuan's anxious appearance and kept laughing, Xiao Yuan felt that his face burned even more, and quickly changed the topic.
"Hey, is the Eurostar coming soon?" Xiao Yuan hurriedly changed the subject.
Cheng Hao smiled: "Soon, the speed should exceed 250 kilometers per hour!"
Xiaoyuan sighed in his heart, but immediately said: "What's the big deal, China's high-speed rail in the future will definitely exceed 300 kilometers!"
Cheng Hao laughed: "Are you so confident?"
Xiao Yuan nodded vigorously: "Yes, in the future, our high-speed rail will definitely be much better than theirs, and it's okay! The high-speed rail in the whole world must be done according to China's parameters, and there is no need to look at the faces of developed countries to live!"
Seeing that Cheng Hao was still smiling at himself, Xiao Yuan said angrily: "What's the matter? Don't you believe it?"
Cheng Hao hurriedly nodded: "If you believe me, I will believe it! I believe everything you believe!"
Xiao Yuan's face turned even redder, and he confiscated Cheng Hao's chopsticks:
"Don't eat it, eat so much, what if you grow into a fat pig in the future?"
After saying that, after receiving the food and going to the kitchen, Cheng Hao looked at her back and shouted:
"It's okay! If I grow into a fat pig, I'll find a little fat pig!"
Xiaoyuan closed the kitchen door with a "bang", and scolded "neurosis" in his heart. Then she washed the dishes with her head bored, and then heard Cheng Hao sing the song "Pigs purring on the farm" that she usually hummed, and her face turned even redder.

Tang Yuan sat on the couch in the bedroom, looking through the photos of the spring outing to the mountains that day.
Everyone in the photo is smiling brightly, and the pear tree in the background is blooming with snow-white flowers, as if you can smell the smell of spring.
He was so engrossed that he didn't notice his mother walking behind him.
"Yuan'er, let's rest for a while......"
His mother whispered with a bowl of soup, thinking he was still busy with work.
Tang Yuan hurriedly closed the album and stood up, and said with a smile: "Mom, I'll just go downstairs and drink." ”
His mother carefully examined Tang Yuan's face, and then tears couldn't help but flow down her face.
Tang Yuan suddenly understood that his mother had already known everything.
During this time, Tang Yuan was extremely tormented, not only because of the relationship with Willing that ended without beginning, but also because he didn't know how to face the guilt of his parents.
In the end, he plucked up the courage to tell his father what had happened, hoping that he would be mentally prepared, after all, it might be more cruel for them to accept their sudden departure.
His father was silent for a long time that day, and then he said, "Heal well." I'll tell your mother about this......" and left dejectedly.
At that moment, Tang Yuan realized that his father's back was so old, and his back had always been straight, and he didn't know when he became like this.
I have always been their greatest pride and all their hopes. I have been busy with work, I rarely have time to sit down and have a meal with the family, and my parents' greatest wish is to see me marry a wife and have children as soon as possible, and live a happy life with children and grandchildren around my knees, but I have never done it, and I may never be able to do it......
Tang Yuan has always been most worried about how his mother would accept all this, but he didn't expect his mother to be much stronger than he imagined, she was always unwilling to cry in front of her, and she didn't want to worry about herself.
Tang Yuan was a little comforted, but his heart was even more sad.
Her mother put down the soup and watched Tang Yuan drink it slowly, then reached out and picked up the photo, carefully looking at everyone in the photo, especially the beautiful girls.
"Yes...... Which one?"
In fact, Tang Yuan's mother had always known that Tang Yuan had a sweetheart, and she had always looked forward to when Tang Yuan could bring it back to show her. She has always been very confident in her son and her son's vision, and she never interfered with anything, she knew that her son would be able to handle everything.
It's just that I didn't expect God to be so cruel that he refused to give time at all.
Tang Yuan smiled and stretched out his finger to point willingly: "This!"
The old lady's tears were suddenly filled with tears again, and she smiled and said, "Well, it looks so good." These girls are all good-looking, and they all look bright and clean. ”
Tang Yuan nodded: "Yes, they are all good girls." ”
The old lady paused for a moment and asked softly, "Is it that people know about your situation and are not happy?"
Tang Yuan shook his head: "I didn't tell her, I didn't want to hurt her." ”
His mother immediately understood something, and nodded: "Yes, it's good if you don't say it......" and then wiped her tears and said:
"Yuan'er, can you accompany your mother well? Mom, really, I really can't bear to ...... you."
Tang Yuan hugged his mother's shoulders and said with tears in his eyes: "I will, I will come back early every day, I go home for dinner every day, I should have accompanied you a long time ago." ”
Tang Yuan's mother couldn't hold back any longer, and cried bitterly, she knew that every minute and every second now was a countdown to the clock of life.
There is nothing more cruel in this world than losing a child in old age and sending a white-haired person to a black-haired person.
Tang Yuan couldn't help but comfort his mother with tears, but he didn't notice that his father had also come in.
Watching them cry, the old man held back his tears, and then picked up the photo on the table.
Tang Yuan hurriedly wiped away his tears, and his mother also stopped crying, watching the old man hold his reading glasses and look at the photo carefully.
"Where is this?"
The people in the photo, the old man all looked at him, which seemed to be very different from the people Tang Yuan often interacted with.
Tang Yuan smiled: "My friend in the railway community opposite the suburban villa. ”
The old man let out an "oh", looked at it carefully for a while, and suddenly pointed at Tian Panpan and asked, "Why does this girl look so familiar?"
Tang Yuan was stunned for a moment, not understanding how his father could feel familiar with Panpan. His father handed the photo to his wife and said:
"Look, have you seen it anywhere?"
Tang Yuan's mother looked at it carefully for a while, and asked hesitantly, "What's this girl's surname?"
Tang Yuan replied truthfully: "The surname is Tian, and his name is Tian Panpan." ”
His mother suddenly remembered: "Is this the daughter of the Oda family?"
The old man took the photo again: "Alas, it should be! This girl doesn't look much different from when she was a child!"
Tang Yuan was also surprised: "You know her? Oh, by the way, it seems that I heard that her father is a deputy director of the Railway Bureau." ”
The old man nodded and said, "That's right!"
The old lady was also surprised: "It turns out that it is really a girl from the Xiaotian family! Oh, you have seen it too! They have come to our house, you are in high school, this little girl has always been skinny, and she was just in elementary school at that time!"
The old man sighed: "It's still a small field, it's all an old field!"
The old lady nodded: "No, it's really unforgiving." At that time, he was still your apprentice, he had a baby's face, he spoke very likable, he was not married, and he came to our house for dinner from time to time. How many years has it been......"
