The drizzle washed away the remnants of winter, gently woke up the earth, quietly took away the bitter cold, and slowly soothed the wounds left by the harsh winter on the trees. The moist ground gives off a refreshing aroma.

When Su Yuzhen came out of the airport, it was drizzling outside. God seems to be very fond of playing tricks on her, and every time she comes back, she is greeted by rain or snow.

In fact, she loves snow, and she has rarely seen large snows in recent years. When I was a child, the snow was layered on top of each other, like a quilt, thick. Covered in snow all winter, stepping on it, squeaking, and running and rolling on the snow, not afraid of soiling your clothes.

In the past ten years, in Shanghai, although it will snow in winter, the scattered snowflakes are only one layer, and they will melt after a while. Her anticipation for the snow was so strong. She didn't know if it was because she missed her hometown or the people here. In short, there is never a stop of anticipation.

The rain became heavier and heavier, wetting her clothes, in fact, she already had an umbrella in her suitcase, but she just didn't want to take it, first, because it was troublesome, and second, she just wanted to breathe in the fragrance of the land of her hometown.

She doesn't like rain, especially on rainy days, which can make her feel irritable and gloomy. However, at the moment, she just wants to walk in the rain and make up for the rainy season she has missed for more than ten years. But how can what is lost come back? This is nothing more than wishful thinking on her part.

She didn't tell anyone that she was back, and for so many years she deliberately cut off contact with her former friends. In fact, only she knows that as long as it is someone who has a relationship with him, she has cut off contact. At the beginning, I wanted to forget the past, but I always thought of him on a specific day. It's easier said than done. "The longing is a cough that follows a high fever."

Ten years is like a day, and every day is like a year.

It was late when she returned to her apartment in Changchun, which had been her uncle's property for many years. Before she came back, she went to see the uncle, who was also older and had gray temples, and he didn't say anything when he took her hand, but she could feel that he had said everything. When she was leaving, the uncle hesitated and said that if you don't want to come back, you can stay with your grandmother, like that. She almost burst into tears.

She doesn't have any plans yet, and her grandmother is still in Nong'an. She's going to go back and see her. Thinking like this, she hurried to pack her luggage, wash up and prepare to take the car back to Nong'an tomorrow.

The house has been more than ten or twenty years, but she entered the house without a little dust, she knew that it must be his old man who had cleaned it in advance, I am afraid that before she left, he had already ordered someone to do it. Uncle is always so considerate.

After cleaning up, she lay in bed and couldn't sleep. Leng Buding changed to a new bed, and she was still not used to it. There was a missed call on her mobile phone, and she glanced at it, and the indescribable taste in her heart was probably due to the rain, and her whole body was sore. Fingertips quivered to remove the striking red.

There was no mood for it, and she managed to slip her phone under her pillow. I closed my eyes and recuperated, and after a while, I fell asleep. She was woken up by the ringing of her mobile phone, picked it up and saw that it was an alarm clock, and forgot to turn it off last night. When she opened her eyes, her consciousness was confused, and her nose was a little uncomfortable, she might have caught a cold. Realizing this, she hurriedly wrapped herself in a quilt and wanted to sleep for a while, but the sound of ping-pong upstairs came down from time to time, and the uncles and aunts in the corridor greeted each other, so noisy that she couldn't sleep.

In the old house, most of the people who lived in the old house were some old empty nesters. Su Yuzhen thought of her grandmother and got up. She woke up early, so luckily she drove back early.

She took a taxi to the passenger station with her suitcase alone, the reason for the rain yesterday, today it is sunny and clear. It was really a good day. Xu is the reason for coming early, there are not many people at the passenger station, she quickly bought a ticket, and when she got on the bus, she still felt in a trance.

Looking at the backward trees, villages, and farmland on both sides of the road, Su Yuzhen's eyes filled with tears. It's been more than ten years, and everything is changing, and she's no more. But the corner of my heart has always remained the same. Even if she is used to drinking coffee, eating Western food, and even being lonely, the unwillingness in her heart still reminds her to come back.

When she got home, her grandmother heard the noise and staggered out of the house with the help of the nanny. She threw down her luggage and walked over to her grandmother.

With a hint of reproach and a hint of coquettishness, he said, "Grandma, why did you come out?" ”

"I came to your uncle this morning, he told me. I still complained, and I didn't give me a call first when I came back. It can be seen that he is not resisting. The old lady poked Su Yuzhen's forehead with her fingers, doting and reproaching.

Su Yuzhen helped the old man into the house, which had not been changed since they moved in. After his father died, the uncle wanted to take his grandmother to Shanghai, but she just refused. Every year during the Spring Festival, she goes to Shanghai for a while, and then comes back, every year, she says that her roots, her friends are here, and she is not comfortable with no relatives and no reason there.

The old lady was stubborn, and the uncle had no choice but to indulge it, so he specially asked a nanny to take care of it, so he was barely relieved. She still came back the year she got married, and now it has been more than ten years, and the pattern of her grandmother's house has not changed much.

As soon as she sat down, the old lady asked her how long she could stay and why he didn't come back with her. She hesitantly changed the subject. The old lady is old and in poor spirits, and if she asks, she will ask again and again. I would also talk to her about my father and uncle when they were young. In fact, there are some things she has heard more than once or twice, and she used to lie in her grandmother's arms and listen to her tell stories between her fathers. Now, she is familiar with it, and her grandmother's memory is getting worse and worse, but to her surprise, she knows everything about the past.

She doesn't know if people like to reminisce about the past when they are old, and they never forget the past. She was afraid of leaving regrets in the future, so she came back desperately, in fact, until now she didn't know if she would have the courage to come back if something like that hadn't happened. Now, seeing her grandmother, in her twilight years, she is convinced that her choice is right.

She went out for a walk with her grandmother in the morning and evening, and when she met a neighbor, her grandmother would take the initiative to tell someone that this was my granddaughter and came back to visit relatives. The neighbors laughed and said that your granddaughter is so beautiful. Didn't your grandson-in-law come back together? The old lady laughed and said he was busy. "Didn't bring the child back?" The old lady's eyes darkened, and then she smiled bitterly, and sighed, "Young people nowadays, they are used to freedom, and they think children are a burden." ”

The neighbor sighed lightly, "It's all like this, people are not like this in this life, give birth to a few, and in the end they are still guarding the empty house alone, don't do it, don't worry." ”

Su Yuzhen chuckled and helped the old lady away.

"That being said, there are no children..... Life doesn't mean much either. The old lady sighed. Su Yuzhen knows that this is always a piece of grandma's heart.

Su Yuzhen stayed at home for a few days, and when she was fine, she sat in the square of the community and watched people dance square dances, as well as those children playing in one place. Occasionally, I see groups of children carrying school bags. She will be reminded of her childhood.

Fortunately, she came back, and she wanted to go back to her alma mater to have a look. A person said to go, she said hello to her grandmother and took a taxi to the school when she was a child.

Compared to her time, the primary school is like heaven and earth. Spacious classrooms, desks and chairs are brand new, and the floors are bright. And she was still land at that time, and the wooden desks were taller than her. Stroll through the playground, which is now all plastic tracks. They were all dirt and dusty, but they didn't feel dirty. And that swing full of memories has long disappeared without a trace.

When I was a child, the teachers were either retired or transferred, and now there are not as many children as before, and there are only more children in one class when two or even three classes add up. Most of them followed their parents to the city, and most of those who stayed behind were left-behind children.

Now the children also have a library, which is said to have been donated by the alumni of this school, and the indoor gymnasium that is still under construction in front of it is also funded by him. She saw the donor, Chen Chong, in the picture frame in the library.

He was surrounded by children and smiled brightly. His smile was hidden in the depths of her memory, and now it reaches the bottom of her heart through the photo. Her heart tightened. She hadn't seen him in over a decade.

She didn't even dare to inquire about him, she quietly hid him in her heart, and only secretly missed him in the dead of night. The bone-eroding thoughts hurt into the bone marrow.

She couldn't remember what year it had been since she got married, and she received a call from him. When she knew it was him, she almost burst into tears. Listening to his voice, she didn't have the courage to ask him if he was okay.

He asked her if she was doing well and how her life could be called good without him. But she still lied, and she said yes, because she had decided to forget.

On the day she got married, she still remembered the song he sang for her, so much so that she didn't dare to listen to it now.

After Su Yuzhen got in the car, all that came to his mind was Chen Chong's smile. At this moment, she uncontrollably dialed the phone number that she had memorized all these years.

In fact, he hasn't called since she answered his call. It's just that some time ago, she was drunk and in a bad mood, and she thought of him again, and remembered the phone number that she had never forgotten. She just wanted to give it a try, because she wasn't sure if the number was still there. But, it really worked. When his voice reached her ears through the other end of the phone, she burst into tears.

She hung up, tears in her eyes. Thankfully, he didn't call. Now, at this moment, she still wants to hear his voice, the phone rang for a long time, but no one answered. Finally, she hung up.

Chen Chong participated in the seminar on Chongxin's internal new product plan, and after the meeting, it was already late. When he went to the office to get his phone, he saw several missed calls, one of which was an unfamiliar number, but it was no longer strange to him. Last time, he connected, and the other party didn't say anything, and hung up. This time, he didn't receive it, and he was still hesitating to call back.
