Chapter 113: Mother
Looking at Lin Aijun's pale face and circled eyebrows, Du Juan believes that he must have believed half of it in his heart, but he just wants to be more sure, and he has been looking forward to it for two lifetimes, maybe Lin Aijun's wish today can finally come true.
"I'll just say, he's definitely your brother." The smile on Lu Xiaolin's face was as bright as a flower, she was so happy today, her son who had been lost for nearly twenty years was finally found, "Aifen, you take a leave of absence tomorrow, go to your father's trip, tell him the good news, and make him happy." ”
"Mom, wait, you ask again, and then ask the others." Lin Aifen was also excited and couldn't help herself, but she still had reason, she couldn't confirm that the other party was her younger brother just by her face and the same name and surname, what if not? That's embarrassing.
"Okay, then I'll convince you." Lu Xiaolin affirmed that she was not afraid, because she knew that the child was her son.
"Your name is Lin Aijun, born on the sixth day of the first month of the first lunar year, you belong to the ox, you should be 24 years old this year."
"Huh? Aijun, aren't you 26 this year? Du Juan asked in surprise, could it be that she remembered it wrong?
"She's right, I'm 24 this year, and in order to be old enough to join the army, my father wanted to report me for two more years."
Whew, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"So that's all right?" After Lin Aifen asked, she suddenly hugged her mother and cried, "Mom, Mom, we finally found it, we finally found ......"
"Brother, you must have suffered all these years." Kong Xiangbing walked over and patted Lin Aijun, who was still stunned, and said with some sympathy.
A five-year-old child suddenly lost contact with his family, and he must have suffered a lot.
"Okay Aifen, your brother has found it, you should be happy, let's stop crying, ......" Lu Xiaolin gently supported her eldest daughter's back and comforted, "Hurry up and give your brother and sister a few dishes, let's celebrate." ”
"Hey!" Lin Aifen wiped her tears and was a little embarrassed. "Little brother, younger brother and sister, I'm sorry that the eldest sister lost her temper. My name is Lin Aifen, and I am your eldest sister. Do you remember? ”
Lin Aifen asked cautiously, she remembered that her younger brother was very smart when he was a child, but she didn't know if he still remembered her after so many years.
"I remember that my father's name is Lin Shaopeng, my mother's name is Lu Xiaolin, the eldest sister's name is Lin Aifen, the second sister's name is Lin Aifang, and the third and third sister's name is Lin Jinlu."
"Yes, yes, all right!" Lu Xiaolin said excitedly. "I only told you the names of my family when I was a child, and you can remember them all, and you can never make a mistake."
"Have you seen this, then?" After speaking, Lin Aifen pulled out an emerald green gourd-shaped jade pendant tied with red thread from the collar.
"......" Lin Aijun stared at the jade pendant with a very ugly face and did not speak, the jade pendant was carried by him since he was a child, but he was searched by Tang Xiaoni that night at the Hong family, and now he thinks that he was either sold by her or given to her son.
"Hey, I knew it was yours." Du Juan stood up and carefully held Lin Aifen's jade pendant in her hand and looked at it. Then he said affirmatively to Lin Aijun, who looked confused, "I saw it at Tang Xiaoni's, and I thought that this thing was definitely not hers based on her identity, so I took it and kept it in the money box, didn't you find it?" ”
Lin Aijun shook his head stunned, this woman is really the lucky star of his life!
"It's not wrong at all, little brother, I didn't expect you to be so promising, tall and handsome." Lin Aifen hugged Lin Aijun excitedly. "I'm going to tell your second sister about this, and she will definitely come over immediately."
"Aifen, don't worry, let's go cook first, my mother and brother haven't eaten yet." Kong Xiangbing pulled his daughter-in-law, who couldn't find Bei, out happily. She disturbed the recognition of the mother and son in the house.
"I'm going to help you." Du Juan is also a clever person, and immediately came out with him.
Only Lin Aijun's mother and son were left in the house, Lin Aijun walked over slowly, squatted in front of Lu Xiaolin, held Lu Xiaolin's slightly trembling hands, opened his mouth and shouted softly. “…… Mother...... Mother! ”
"Hey!"
After a while, the sound of the two crying came from the kung fu room, Lin Aifen threw herself into Kong Xiangbing's arms and cried with a muffled voice, Kong Xiangbing's eyes were also full of tears, he raised his head high to prevent tears from flowing.
Du Juan stood in the courtyard, looking at the vibrant jujube tree in front of her, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, "It's so good, Aijun He finally found his relatives and found his roots." ”
Secretly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and in a blink of an eye, she saw the three little heads printed out of the window next door, Du Juan beckoned, she still remembered that the old lady didn't eat lunch, and she and Lin Aijun had just started using chopsticks, so she planned to go to the kitchen to see if she could cook a few dishes.
Holding the crying four people inside and outside the house, Du Juan couldn't count on it, so she had better be self-reliant.
"You're my aunt!" Kong Linghan asked curiously with big eyes.
"Well, what's your name?" Du Juan was cooking neatly, and chatting with the three children without a word.
"I'm the boss, my name is Kong Lingxu, the sun is rising. This is my brother's name Kong Lingqian, Lang Lang Qian. That little girl's name is Kong Linghan, the Han of self-cultivation. ”
Kong Lingxu is 16 years old this year and is still in high school. Kong Lingqian is 14 years old this year and has just graduated from junior high school, while the youngest Kong Linghan is 11 years old this year and is still in elementary school.
"My name is Du Juan, Juanxiu's Juan." Du Juan also introduced it very formally, she felt that these children were very educated, and their eyes were all very positive. Judging by their proficiency in the kitchen, they should often help the family with the work.
"Are they all in school?" The children in the city should all be in school, Du Juan asked with some uncertainty.
"Yes, there is, but few of the teachers and classmates in the school listen carefully, and they always want to make a revolution." Kong Lingxu said with some hatred, his grandfather was captured by those Red Guards, and he hated any Red Guards.
"You don't have to worry about those people, just be yourself." Du Juan said lightly, "This kind of day will always pass, and the country will still need truly knowledgeable people at that time, as for those who have no brains, it will be when they will endure hardship." ”
"Auntie, do you think so too?" Kong Lingxu was pleasantly surprised, "Grandma also said the same to us, she said let's read more books at home, don't run outside if you have nothing to do, and don't get involved in things outside." ”
"Hmm. If there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, listen to your grandmother. Du Juan nodded admiringly, "I think your grandmother shouldn't be an ordinary person, she should be highly educated." ”
"Auntie. You're eye-catching. Kong Lingqian poked his head over and said proudly, "Grandma graduated from Yenching University and studied abroad, do you think it's amazing?" ”
"Awesome, I admire people who are really knowledgeable!" Du Juan nodded in affirmation. "My little uncle seems to have also graduated from Yenching, but he later taught at Southern University."
A few boys' eyes widened, "Auntie, your family is also so powerful?" Also from the city? "They really didn't expect it.
"Stinky boys, what's wrong with the city people, as far as I can see, the city people are not as good as us rural people. Don't look at the place where your family lives is not small, but many houses in the city are not as big as my chicken coop! Du Juan deliberately glared angrily.
"Poof...... a few boys were not afraid of Du Juan's scolding, covering their mouths and laughing.
"When I have a chance in the future, my aunt will take you to my hometown to have a look, so that you can see the rural people who are different from you." Du Juan continued to amuse.
"Auntie. Since your family is so good, you must have gone to school. Kong Linghan blinked and said, "A classmate in our class always said that her relatives from the countryside were dirty and poor, and she hated going to her house twice a day to fight the autumn breeze." The little girl wrinkled her nose and looked puzzled.
"Xiaohan, how do you speak!" Kong Lingxu scolded, he was afraid that his new aunt would have an idea in his heart, thinking that they would hate her like this. "Aunt, I'm sorry, Xiaohan is still young and can't speak, don't be angry with her."
Xiao Han didn't say the wrong thing again. Why am I mad at her? Du Juan shook her head amusedly and said, "However, your brother has done a good job, and his younger brother and sister have to defend it, even if he does something wrong, we have to be consistent with the outside world first." I'll learn a lesson when I get home. ”
"Got it, aunt."
"Auntie, you haven't answered my question yet." When the little girl saw this, she immediately hit the snake with the stick.
"My aunt's father has seen the world, and he knows the power of knowledge, so he requires everyone in his family to go to school, so all the brothers and sisters in my aunt's family have graduated from high school, including your uncle."
"That's amazing!" A few of the boys exclaimed, "What is he doing now, uncle?" Are you going back to your hometown in two days? Some of them began to like this new aunt, and they felt that the other party talked to them as equals, and never coaxed them like children, so they were reluctant to let them go.
"Your uncle is a soldier, and we live around here."
"Will my uncle go back to the army?"
"Unless your body doesn't allow it."
"Oh yes!" A few children cheered, "Can we go to my aunt's house to play?" "Except for the occasional trip to the second aunt's house, they have nowhere to go. Because the Kong family is currently in the capital except for Kong Xiangbing, everyone else is still in the capital, it is too far away from here, and they haven't seen their grandparents, uncles and uncles for several years.
"Welcome!"
"Okay, now I'll go see how they're doing, and you guys will help make a basin of hot water first, and then serve the food." Du Juan calculated that the time should be almost up, and if she continued to cry, she would hurt her body, so she should go and see what happened.
The husband and wife of the Kong family outside the house have returned to normal, but they have been standing outside, neither going in to disturb nor dare to go away, probably for fear that something will happen to the old lady in the house.
"Brother and sister, it's been a hard work." Lin Aifen originally wanted to go to the kitchen to cook, but when she saw the children talking and laughing with their new aunt, she chose not to bother.
"It's a matter of work, what is the hard work." Du Juan waved her hand indifferently and said, "What's going on inside, are you still crying?" If you cry too much, the old lady's body will not be able to stand it. ”
"Xiaojuan, come in."
Before Du Juan could get a reply, Lin Aijun in the house called someone in.
Before entering, Du Juan beckoned to the kitchen, signaling that the children could bring hot water.
The atmosphere in the room was very good, and the mother and son talked affectionately next to each other.
"Mom, I'll wipe your face for you." When Lin Aijun saw the children bringing hot water, he immediately got up and twisted it, squatted in front of Lu Xiaolin and asked.
"Okay...... Lu Xiaolin smiled, "Your adoptive father and parents-in-law have educated you so well, and when I have a chance in the future, I must go and thank them in person." ”
Du Juan raised her eyebrows, she didn't say anything, she thought that Lin Aijun wouldn't tell his mother everything, he should have this bit of proportion.
During the meal, Lin Aijun shook Du Juan's hand under the table very apologetically, today I was supposed to watch a movie with her, but now I ...... The movie is over.
Du Juan smiled at him and didn't speak, but her heart was still warm, at least someone didn't have a mother and forgot about a daughter-in-law.
"Brother and sister, I haven't thanked you well for what happened last time, it's really thanks to you, otherwise ......"
After the meal, Lin Aifen pulled Du Juan to speak, her younger brother and sister are not only good-looking, but also cook good dishes, and their temper is not to be said, they are gentle and gentle like a good wife and mother, and her younger brother is really good-looking.
"Eldest sister, it's all a family, don't thank you." Du Juan smiled.
"Yes, Aifen, that's your brother and sister, the girl is good, you don't have to be so polite, you look rusty." Lu Xiaolin's face was red and refreshed, and she looked more than ten years younger.
"Girl, come to Mom." Lu Xiaolin beckoned to Du Juan.
Du Juan saw Lin Aijun nodding, so she smiled over, squatted in front of Lu Xiaolin and shouted a little shyly, "...... Mother! ”
She's got a mom again!
"Hey!" Lu Xiaolin replied loudly, "In the future, we will be mother and daughter, if Aijun dares to bully you, you sue your mother, and your mother will help you bully back." ”
"Hmmm! A child with a mother is a treasure. Du Juan buried her face on Lu Xiaolin's lap affectionately, so that everyone could not see the tears she couldn't help but shed.
Only Lin Aijun knew that Du Juan must have thought of her mother in her previous life again, so he also squatted on the side, gently put his hand on Du Juan's back, and pulled Lu Xiaolin's with the other hand, these were the two most important women in his heart.
"You're my treasure." Lu Xiaolin felt the wetness on her legs, and sighed slightly in her heart, this child is also a hard worker, he has no mother since he was a child, fortunately his father is a good one, and he is taken care of by his uncle and aunt, otherwise...... It's hard to say.
"Mom, it's getting late, we have to go back to camp." Lin Aijun said reluctantly that he had only known his mother for less than half a day, but he had to return to the team on time.
"Aijun, let's take my mother home." As soon as Du Juan saw Lin Aijun's face, she knew that he was reluctant to leave his mother, whom she had just met, which she could completely understand, and she was reluctant to change anyone, but this was only one of the reasons why she said this.
