When An Jiajia came home, her family happily welcomed her. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
On the contrary, Li Zhibing went home very nervously.
He had been away from home for three years, had not written a letter to his family, and had no idea what was going on at home.
He suddenly went back, not knowing what was waiting for him.
Li Zhibing hugged the rice bag in his arms tightly and walked home with anxious steps.
Yoshida Village looks as depressed as Anjia Village, and there is no New Year's atmosphere at all.
Because of the cold weather, every family hides in their homes to keep warm, and almost no one comes out to hang out.
Otherwise, Li Zhibing's military uniform would have attracted the entire Yoshida Village to watch.
There was not much change in Yoshida Village, and Li Zhibing soon walked to the door of the house, and the gate of the courtyard did not change from when he left.
He stopped in the doorway, took a deep breath, and then reached out and pushed open the door in front of him.
The yard is still the same yard, but he feels a little strange, and I don't know if it's because he hasn't come back for more than three years.
Li Zhibing walked in and closed the courtyard door, the door of the house was closed tightly, he didn't know if there was anyone at home.
Li Zhibing walked to the door of the house, pushed it, and the door opened.
"Who?" A familiar and unfamiliar voice came from inside, followed by footsteps in the room.
Li Zhibing was very nervous, and immediately withdrew his hand, he didn't know who the person who came out would be.
In the nervous heartbeat of Li Zhibing, the door in front of him was pulled open from the inside, revealing a face that had changed from his memory.
"Mom," Li Zhibing blurted out.
Zhao Meili didn't expect Li Zhibing to come back suddenly, she trembled her hands, she didn't know if the scene in front of her was real or a dream.
"Zhibing, is it Zhibing?" Zhao Meili asked in a trembling voice.
"Mom, I'm a soldier, it's me, I'm back!"
Zhao Meili's hands finally landed on Li Zhibing's shoulders.
Feeling the strong shoulders underneath her clothes, she burst into tears, her eyes looking him up and down.
Especially when he saw his military uniform, his face showed a proud expression.
"It's so cold? What do you do when you open the door? If you don't come in, you get out! Wang Shuiqin's voice came from inside the house.
Li Zhibing and Zhao Meimei's smiles froze on their faces, and Zhao Meili patted Li Zhibing on the shoulder and led him into the house.
After Li Zhibing entered, the eyes of everyone in the room immediately fell on him.
Wang Shuiqin saw Li Zhibing coming back in a military uniform, and his eyes almost glowed green.
"Volunteers? Is it a soldier? Wang Shuiqin smiled like a weasel, "Zhibing, my good grandson, where have you been?" Grandma misses you so much! ā
"Grandma," Li Zhibing called out faintly.
When Wang Shuiqin saw that he was so cold to him, he immediately frowned in displeasure.
"Zhibing, what are you holding?" When Li Zhikang saw that Li Zhibing was back, he was very envious of his military uniform.
But when his eyes fell on the bag of things in his arms, his eyes almost lit up.
"Mom, I brought some rice back, you can take it and cook it," Li Zhibing didn't look at Li Zhikang, and directly stuffed the rice bag into Zhao Meili's arms.
Hearing that it was rice, Wang Shuiqin stood up instantly, and Li Zhikang and Li Zhixiang's eyes were fixed on the bag of rice.
"Zhibing is really filial, he is really a good grandson I taught!" Wang Shuiqin said as he went to grab the rice bag in Zhao Meimei's arms.
"Mom, I've always been cooking at home, so I don't bother you!" Zhao Meili dodged Wang Shuiqin's outstretched claws.
"Beautiful, now the family relies on you to work alone, I'll cook in the future, ah!"
"No need, Shika can help me cook!"
"Zhixiang is getting married, and there will be two women in the family in the future, and I will naturally cook the cooking."
Li Zhibing didn't care about Zhao Meili and Wang Shuiqin grabbing the rice bags there, but was confused by what they said.
"Eldest sister, second brother, where's Dad?"
Li Zhikang's attention was all on the bag of rice, and he had to take care of his meaning.
It was Li Zhixiang who was suddenly very enthusiastic about Li Zhibing, she pulled Li Zhibing to sit down and poured him tea.
"Zhibing, you don't know how sad life is at home, we can't live anymore!"
Li Zhibing saw that Li Zhixiang actually shed tears for himself, but Li Zhixiang, who had always disdained to talk to him!
"Sister, what happened?"
"There has been no rain since last year, and the fields are so dry that nothing can be planted. Dad couldn't help it, he couldn't watch our family starve to death, so he went hunting in the mountains, but he couldn't come back once he went! ā
Li Zhibing was shocked, this was something he never expected.
Although Li Guanghui is not very good to him, but in the end it is his father, and suddenly there is no more, and Li Zhibing can't accept it.
"How so? Dad, Dad, how could he? Li Zhibing felt uncomfortable, and he couldn't accept such a sudden thing at all. When did it happen? ā
"Just a few years ago, we went to look for it, but we didn't find it!"
Li Zhibing felt uncomfortable, there was still a war over there, and Zhao Meili hugged the rice bag tightly.
Wang Shuiqin is old, and he doesn't have a bite of delicious food all year round, so he can't grab a few times with Zhao Meili.
Wang Shuiqin sat down on the chair, panting, and glared at Zhao Meimei's rice bag unwillingly.
"Mom, when you're tired, take a break, I'll take it and put it away first!" Zhao Meili walked away like a victorious rooster.
Li Zhixiang cried miserably at Li Zhibing, "Zhibing, you are a soldier now, and your life is definitely better than ours." ā
"Eldest sister, I'm just doing chores in the cooking class."
"Zhibing, now the family depends on you, you must help me!"
"Eldest sister, what's wrong with you?"
Li Zhibing frowned, he was only 12 years old, no, he would be 13 years old after the New Year, could he carry this family?
"Zhibing, Zhikang is no longer studying, you are the only one in the family who has a chance, what you say must be good!"
Li Zhixiang grabbed Li Zhibing's sleeve as if grasping a life-saving straw, and looked at Li Zhibing pleading with tears in his eyes.
"Eldest sister, what do you say first, you can help me!"
"Zhibing, grandma wants to marry me to the fat guy in Zhaojia Village for the sake of food! I don't want to marry, he's very fat! Many people say that he has a bad temper and will beat people! ā
Li Zhixiang thought of what those people said, and refused to marry.
But Zhao Dahua sells pork, although he is fat, his family background must be good.
At least you don't have to work all day long, you can eat meat every day, Wang Shuiqin just stared at other people's meat to find someone to talk about this family business.
Li Zhibing frowned, he understood Wang Shuiqin's intentions, but he really didn't know Zhao Dahua.
"Eldest sister, don't worry, Dad...... You won't get married so soon, I want to get to know that Zhao Dahua. ā
Li Zhibing has been in the army for several years, and he knows that many things cannot be taken at face value.
