9. My home is in the Northeast~
Han Yu's hometown is in the north, a provincial municipality called Qihe (Harmony).
Airport bus, plane, taxi, train, three donkey jumpers....... after a series of twists and turns, finally arrived!
Looking at the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar city, listening to Gary's song "Let's Meet Now", a different kind of love came to my heart.
"Yes, this song has a bit of flavor~ Is this KPOP?"
Standing at the door of the house, I haven't been back for more than a year, and I feel more timid about my hometown.
knocked on the door, his sister was the first to greet him, and his mother and father were also more relieved to watch the pride of the family pull the suitcase into the living room, and after putting the things away, the mother's nagging began
"Busy and busy, I won't go home for the New Year, right? How beautiful is Xiaoyanagi? It's one year younger than you, look at it! You are not rare, some people are robbing, and they will get married on May Day this year!"
"Yes, brother, I really don't know what you think, Sister Liu is very good, she always comes to our house when she has nothing to do, in fact, she just wants to see you, but you just don't come back!
"Alright, as soon as I arrived in you, I started bombing and bombing, and I knew I wasn't coming back. ”
At this time, my father also joined the 'Criticism Conference', "You're not coming back? Are you famous? I haven't seen a few shots of you on TV? The producer and arranger are all famous, right? What kind of music did you make up?"
"I'm the hero behind the scenes, Dad, you don't understand!"
"I don't understand, I haven't heard any songs you write, standing there like a fool and playing the piano for people, what's the big deal!"
"Yes, I played the piano and played the piano and played the house, that's SH! Do you know how much it costs?"
"Hey, you stinky boy, you dare to talk to your dad like this?
The old mother and the old sister hurriedly came over to persuade the fight, you old man too, your son came back from afar, you can say a few words, even if he does not do it right, he should save some face for this famous teacher, right?
"Okay, okay, wash your hands and eat!"
Sauerkraut stewed pork ribs, pot wrapped meat, chicken feet, slippery liver tips, cumin meat slices, scrambled eggs with garlic, leek box、... The familiar smell came to his nose, and Han Yu couldn't hold back his saliva. In the past few years, even if I have eaten the delicacies of the mountains and seas, it is still not as good as the taste of home, the dishes made by my mother.
After adding a large piece of ribs to her son, the mother started her 'work' again
"Son, tomorrow after watching your grandma, I'll go to your father's school again"
"Oh, what are you going to do?"
"Your teachers miss you, they want to see you"
"Come on, I don't have a few elementary school teachers left, right? I've been teaching for a few years, I don't know?"
"Are you going or not?, how can you be a university teacher?", Dad frowned and pointed at him with chopsticks
"Okay, I'll go, Dad, why haven't you retired yet?
"There's one more thing," Mom glanced at Cher
"Your sister has a friend who is coming the day after tomorrow, and he's Korean. Ten years ago, when you were a soldier, you came to live in our house for a few days, and the two got along well and kept in touch. This time, I heard your dad say that she went back to the school she went to when she was a child to participate in Sino-Korean cultural exchange activities, and she also had to perform a show. Isn't that what you're doing? Just take them around and do their best to be a landlord. ”
"Oh, why are you Korean? Girl, male and female?"
"Nonsense! live in our house and sleep in the same bed with your sister, of course it's a little girl!"
"Cher, why do you still know a stick girl?"
When my father asked me to represent the school in activities when I was a child, I happened to make a group of friends with her, and I came to our house to experience life in China for a few days! Wait, I'll go find it and show you!"
After saying that, he turned around and ran into her room, and after a while, he took out a few old photos and put them in front of Han Yu.
Of course my sister can recognize it, and the other one is the little girl with a stick?
Double eyelids, thin and black and tall, wearing the same school uniform as my sister, attending classes together, playing the guzheng, traveling, taking art photos...
"Haha these photos are worth a lot now, she's already a big star!"
Knocking on his sister's head, Han Yu said with a smile
"Your brother and I are also very famous, right? I didn't see you ask me to sign an autograph?", Han Yu glanced at it casually, what kind of celebrity girl actually gave him a glutinous feeling, huh, why did such a word suddenly pop up?
put down the photo and said again
"It's ugly, isn't it? Still a star? Must have had plastic surgery!"
"Ah, you're ugly, you're just getting plastic surgery!" "Aren't Koreans giving plastic surgery coupons on birthdays?"
"Hmph!", Xue'er rolled her eyes and muttered angrily
"Wait and see, don't be surprised when she comes in a few days!"
"Gnaw on your chicken paws! I'll stop eating tomorrow after this meal, and I'll wait for her to feed me the whales!"
"Okay, let's eat quickly, the dishes will be cold in a while. ”
The next day, Han Yu went to his grandmother's house early in the morning.
Grandma is 80 years old this year, has some strokes, has difficulty walking, and is in good spirits.
It's just that since last year, she has said goodbye to the last hobby in her life - mahjong, and now she can only watch others play, grandma is a little sad, and Han Yu can also see it.
People, especially the elderly at this age, have passed the so-called period of prayer when children and grandchildren are around.
It's enough to have a hobby, I don't want to cause trouble to others, I play mahjong with the old men and ladies in the community every day, and I will be very happy to chat about my spare time.
"Are you busy with work?"
Holding Grandma's hand, looking at her already pale hair and wrinkled face, Han Yue said softly, "It's okay, it's what I like to do anyway, it doesn't matter if I'm busy or not."
"My eldest grandson is also out of luck, and the neighbors praise me every day, saying that your family is really talented!"
"Hehe, grandma, don't you feel old and comfortable?
"Hahaha, that's. However", stared at Han Yu, "When will I find a good girl and bring it back to my grandmother, it is better than anything!"
"Well, this one pays attention to fate, and besides, I'm a man and I'm not in a hurry."
"Know you're visionary. The nature of your work is that you meet crazy girls singing and dancing every day, but you can't look for them there! Who would let their children do that?"
"Well, what you said, then I'm not a good person?"
"My eldest grandson must be a good boy!"
"Grandma, your thinking is too traditional, now you think everyone wants to be a star? The rich and powerful will spend a lot of money to support their children to play in that circle. You don't know the entertainment industry in our country, how easy it is to cheat money...."
glanced at the hypocritical and somewhat boring program on TV, and chatted casually with her like this.
After eating a meal of noodles and potatoes made by his grandmother, Han Yu knew that his craft was still not home!
After cleaning up the table, he helped his grandmother downstairs and sent her to 'play' with the aunts and uncles in the community.
Han Yu continued to the next stop, his alma mater.
