Chapter XXXIV. Returning to visit relatives

Ren Shaochen came up after taking out the garbage, Ruoning had already hung up the phone, she lowered her head in annoyance, she had just ruthlessly explained the matter and could refuse, but she still couldn't say it, and under the enthusiasm of Ren's mother, she also agreed to go back to the countryside to see them.

"My face seems to be better, does it still hurt?" Ren Shaochen took a closer look at Ruo Ning, stroked his hand and touched it, the swelling had almost disappeared, he took out the ointment from his pocket, unscrewed the lid, squeezed out a little on his fingertips, and applied it to Ruo Ning's face, while saying: "Don't be so stubborn and conflict with your father in the future, men eat soft and not hard, if you show weakness, he will not necessarily stand on that woman's side." ”

Ruo Ning heard Ren Shaochen mention Qu Tao, her lips turned pale, and she said with a wry smile: "He has already made up his mind, for the sake of that woman, what is the use of me showing weakness." ”

Ren Shaochen gently rubbed the ointment open, gently circled his fingertips, and sighed: "Then what's the use of you arguing with him, it will only push him to the other side." ”

If you think about what Ren Shaochen said, it is not unreasonable, but his heart is still sad, after so many years of father-daughter relationship, that slap has already cracked.

After Ren Shaochen finished applying the ointment to Ruoning, his mobile phone rang, and after answering, he glanced at Ruoning in surprise.

"Okay, I got it." Ren Shaochen answered and hung up the phone.

Ruo Ning heard from the tone in which he answered the phone that it should be Ren's mother who called, so she said that she had promised to return to her hometown, and said uneasily: "I'll call her later to explain it clearly." ”

"Mom has been in poor health recently, so don't let her know about our divorce for the time being."

"Mom is not well? Why didn't I mention it just now. Ruo Ning was a little nervous, and asked, "What's uncomfortable?" ”

"Maybe I didn't want you to worry about it, so I didn't say it, it shouldn't be a big deal." Ren Shaochen lowered his eyes and got up, and said while walking into the bathroom to wash his hands: "I'll go back and have a look later." ”

"I'll go with you." Ruo Ning listened to Ren Shaochen's tone, although it was light, but he was about to go back to his hometown to see, she deduced that the situation might be a little serious.

Ren Shaochen turned his face to look at her sideways, the corners of his mouth curved, and Ruo Ning felt that she seemed to have been deceived.

The words have been spoken, and there is no reason to take it back, and she is really worried about Ren's mother's health, so she and Ren Shaochen bought a bullet train ticket to go back.

S city is not far from H city, there are more than 30 bullet trains a day, you can arrive in an hour and a half, and then transfer to half an hour to arrive at the waterfront village where Ren Shaochen grew up since childhood.

When they arrived, it was only four o'clock in the afternoon. The sun is strong, and the golden sunlight spreads on the long field path, along the path, you can see a red brick and green tile house standing there, the house is still very new, it was completed three years ago, that is the Ren family.

The perimeter of the house was built with stones to form a small courtyard. When Ruoning and the others approached, they saw that the door of the outer courtyard was ajar, and there was a thumping sound inside.

Ren Shaochen pushed open the door, only to see a man with half a hundred hair sitting on a small stool chopping wood, heard the sound of the door opening, he raised his head, and after seeing them, he immediately smiled, and his dark face was full of wrinkles.

"Dad." Ren Shaochen walked over quickly, took Ren's father's axe, twisted his eyebrows and said, "You can find someone to help you do these heavy jobs, why did you chop them yourself." ”

When Ren's father heard this, he patted the sawdust on his body, knowing that Ren Shaochen was filial and didn't want to see him CAO Lao, so he responded with a smile on his face: "Okay, I'll find Xiaoyong next door next time." ”

After speaking, he shouted into the room with a snow qin.

Ren's mother hurried out, and when she saw Shaochen and Ruoning, she was very happy, and walked down the steps in three or two steps, walked to Ruoning's side, took Ruoning's hand, and said, "Good boy, I just said that you are here." ”

Li Xueqin is in her early fifties, and her maintenance is not good, but she can still see a little bit of her former beauty between her eyebrows and eyes, and there is a small rice nest at the corner of her mouth when she laughs. In fact, Ren Shaochen also has it, and he rarely laughs like this.

Speaking of which, Ren Shaochen and Ren's father and mother don't look alike, and only the Mi Nest at the corner of the lip is similar to Ren's mother.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Qu Ruoning asked worriedly when she opened her mouth, she looked Ren Ma up and down, and only felt that Ren Ma's spirit was good.

"When I see you, I'm comfortable everywhere." Ren Ma smiled and patted Ruoning's hand.

Ruo Ning turned her face and glanced at Ren Shaochen, Ren Shaochen turned her head away, and touched her nose weakly, Ruo Ning realized that she was really deceived. But when she saw Ren's mother, she was also very happy, so she didn't bother with him.

Just when it was close to dinner, Ruo Ning followed Ren's mother to the kitchen, and Ren's mother chatted with her with a smile.

A small table was set up in the courtyard for dinner, and the four of them sat around, although it was not August 15, it could be regarded as a happy reunion dinner.

During this period, Ren Shaochen mentioned the matter of taking the two to live in S City, and in the past few years, he has spent a lot of time convincing them. At first, Ren's parents refused on the grounds that his job was not stable, and later Ren Shaochen's career was successful, so they said that they were used to living in the countryside and were not suitable for life in the city, anyway, there were reasons to shirk in every possible way.

But the two old men are getting older, and it is more reassuring to take care of them by their side, so Ren Shaochen mentioned the matter again.

"Yes, if you go over there to live, it will be easier for us to take care of it." If she echoed the Tao, probably because the atmosphere was too harmonious, she even forgot about the divorce with Ren Shaochen, if the two old men were taken over, they would know immediately.

Ren's mother still insisted: "Didn't Shaochen invest money to build a health center in the village, now it is very convenient to see a doctor with a headache and brain fever, we are not used to staying in big cities, not to mention that my relatives and friends with your father are all here." ”

Ruo Ning remembered that Ren's mother and Ren Dad would come to the city when she and Ren Shaochen got married, and the two families had a meal together, they refused to go to S City no matter how they persuaded them.

"Ruoning, I see that you have lost weight, is it because of hard work?" Ren's mother changed the topic and said, "Come, eat more." ”

Ren Shaochen shook his head helplessly, every time it was always like this, let them go to S City, just like bi them in the oil pot, reluctant in every way, he couldn't be reluctant.

After dinner, Ruoning pushed Ren's mother out of the kitchen, and she was ready to tie her apron and wash it.

The rope was too short, and the hands were not knotted at the back of the neck, and they were not tied for a while, when a pair of broad palms covered it.

Ruo Ning tilted his head, Ren Shaochen said in a low voice: "I'll help you." ”

She lowered her hand and let him tie the rope, and the warm fingertips touched the skin on the back of her neck, itching her neck so much that she wanted to shrink her neck.

After five years of marriage, Ren Shaochen naturally knew very well that this was a very sensitive place for her, and she was very afraid of itching, so he smiled lightly: "You keep moving, how can I tie it?" ”

Ruo Ning endured, and after tying it, the roots of her ears were already red.
