Time slowly slipped forward in the children's calligraphy, and when Lin Shuang, who could have been running outside in short sleeves, had to put on a padded jacket, Lin Zhihong came back.

On this day, Liu Xiaoying worked the day shift, so after getting off work, she went home early to prepare dinner. The winter in Jiangnan is gloomy and cold, and in the unheated house, Liu Xiaoying's mother and daughter prefer to eat early, then pour a soup woman, and then nest in bed early to talk about what happened during the day.

After the mother and daughter had eaten and nested in bed, they suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. Liu Xiaoying raised her voice and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Xiaoying, open the door! I'm back! A familiar male voice came from outside the door. Liu Xiaoying didn't care about wearing pants, jumped out of bed, and ran to open the door. As soon as the door opened, the cold wind followed. Liu Xiaoying shuddered. Then he heard the man say again, "Why did you come out without clothes?" Hurry up and get in! Beware of frostbite. ”

Liu Xiaoying's tears fell all at once. Then Liu Xiaoying quickly wiped away her tears: "Why did you come back at this time?" Why don't you stay overnight in town and then catch a ride back? Have you eaten? I'll help you make a noodle! Lin Zhihong stopped Liu Xiaoying, who was going to the next strip.

"Don't rush. I took someone's tractor to the entrance of the village and walked back. You go get dressed first, and then come and help me make noodles. I'm not hungry yet. Lin Zhihong put down the big bag he was carrying. Close the door carefully. Skillfully light up in the dark. Lin Zhihong couldn't help but smile when he touched the matches that were still placed in the old place, and it was really good at home. What a nostalgia!

When Lin Shuang heard that his father was back, he was so excited that he put on his clothes and pounced on him in two clicks. "Daddy. You're back! I miss you so much! "The little girl is Aijiao, and when she sees Lin Zhihong, she sells it. Regardless of Lin Zhihong's dusty servants, Lin Shuang hugged Lin Zhihong and refused to let go.

Liu Xiaoying also went to put on her clothes at this time. Seeing Lin Shuang, who was like a monkey on Lin Zhihong's body, he slapped his buttocks: "Hurry up." Your dad rushed all the way back, and it was very difficult. Go, pour a bowl of water for your daddy! After Lin Shuang was photographed, he obediently got off Lin Zhihong. ran upside down, poured a bowl of hot water and handed it to Lin Zhihong.

It's winter, and there are no fresh vegetables at home, but in the summer, a lot of dried vegetables are dried. So Liu Xiaoying quickly soaked a little dried vegetables in hot water, boiled a large pot of noodles, and added two poached eggs to the noodles. Lin Zhihong took the bowl and devoured it. Lin Shuang looked at the noodles in Lin Zhihong's bowl as if by magic, and suddenly they were gone.

Liu Xiaoying gave Lin Zhihong another bowl full of noodles. This time, Lin Zhihong slowed down the speed of eating noodles. A mouthful of noodles and a mouthful of soup, and then a mouthful of dried vegetables. Lin Zhihong sighed while eating: "Shuangshuang, it's still your mother's noodles delicious." After so many days in Ningxia, what I think about most is the food cooked by your mother. ”

Listen, listen, Liu Xiaoying's tears fell again. Liu Xiaoying, who didn't want her family to see it, turned her back and wiped away her tears with an apron. "I'll help you boil the pot of water, you scald your feet, and go to bed early tonight." With that, Liu Xiaoying ran to the stove to boil water. Lin Shuang continued to lie on Lin Zhihong's side and ask long and short questions.

"Daddy, is it fun over there in Ningxia? What's delicious? "Children's problems are always related to eating and playing.

Lin Zhihong was full, hugged Lin Shuang in his arms, and talked to Lin Shuang about the affairs in Ningxia. Talk about how sweet the watermelon in Ningxia is, a hundred times sweeter than the one at home. Talk about how the weather in Ningxia is different from the weather at home. Talk about the interesting things you encountered when you work in Ningxia. He also talked about the fun people he met in Ningxia.

What Lin Zhihong and Lin Shuang said in the hall, Liu Xiaoying could also hear it clearly in the stove, and the firelight printed her face red. The water in the pot is heating up little by little, but Liu Xiaoying's heart is settling down little by little. Since Lin Zhihong left home for Ningxia, Liu Xiaoying's heart has always been a point, for fear of hearing bad news. Now my man is back, he looks healthy, and he has sent so much money back in the past few months. Liu Xiaoying is already content.

After the water was boiled, it was poured into the basin, and after Liu Xiaoying adjusted the water temperature, she came out with the basin: "Come, scald your feet, there is still water in the pot, the water is not hot, I will add water to you." Lin Zhihong didn't say a word, and directly took off his socks and soaked his feet. Liu Xiaoying looked at the socks he took off, and tears were about to fall again.

There are several large and small holes in these socks, and when I was at home before, there were holes in the socks, and Liu Xiaoying would always find a piece of cloth of similar color to patch them. If there are too many holes to make up, then buy a double replacement again. Now Lin Chenghong is still wearing socks with holes one after another on his feet, which makes Liu Xiaoying feel that men have suffered a lot outside.

Lin Shuang accompanied Lin Zhihong for a while, and then asked Liu Xiaoying to rush back to sleep. "Shuangshuang, go to bed, I'll go to school tomorrow. If you don't sleep now, you won't be able to get up tomorrow morning. I don't care if you're late. Tell your teacher to punish you! ”

Lin Shuang thought to himself, I won't be late. Doudou will come and call me to go to school together! However, I thought about it in my heart, and I obediently ran to sleep in action. "Got it, Mommy, Daddy, I'm going to sleep!" The Lin family has a big bed, and after Lin Shuang got into bed, he obediently slept on the innermost side, leaving a large piece of space on the outside to the Lin family and his wife. Tang Pozi was very warm, and after a while, Lin Shuang fell asleep.

drove away the couple of Lin Shuang's little girl, and they can finally be together.

Liu Xiaoying squatted down and rubbed Lin Zhihong's feet. The water in the basin was no longer very hot, so Liu Xiaoying got up and went to the pot to get water and add it to the basin. Lin Zhihong watched Liu Xiaoying walk back and forth between the stove and the hall. The heat in her eyes made Liu Xiaoying forget her previous sadness, and her heart was full of happiness.

"Soak your feet well. I came back all the way and suffered my sin. In the Ming Dynasty, you sleep late, and when you get up, I will boil more water for you to take a bath. Liu Xiaoying saw those big bags and small bags, so she reached out to probe Lin Zhihong's shoulder. Sure enough, Lin Zhihong's shoulders were already red and swollen.

"Does your shoulder hurt? I'll get a hot towel for you. You've brought back all these things, why don't you send them back? This way, you can walk a little easier on the road. Liu Xiaoying has never taken a train, but she has squeezed through the city buses. The driver is always shouting to squeeze inside, and then squeeze until there is no gap in the front and back, so he doesn't get a passenger. Liu Xiaoying feels that this train is the same as a car, and she always has to pull more people to make money.

Lin Zhihong felt the comfort of the hot towel on his shoulders and sighed deeply. "It's still comfortable at home." Lin Zhihong took Liu Xiaoying behind him to his front and hugged Liu Xiaoying's waist tightly. Pressed his face against Liu Xiaoying's soft waist and felt the breath on Liu Xiaoying's body. "Yingying, I miss you. In Ningxia, I miss you every day! ”

Liu Xiaoying stroked Lin Zhihong's short hair and responded slowly: "I'm worried about you at home, and I don't know if you eat well outside, live well, or if anyone makes you angry." I always felt that it was too unsafe for you to be out there alone. Liu Xiaoying feels that she is a little different from herself today, with so many tears, which is not good.

Lin Zhihong let go of Liu Xiaoying, quickly dried his feet, and then carried Liu Xiaoying back to the room. A different kind of enthusiasm for couples who have been separated for a long time. Liu Xiaoying felt Lin Zhihong's enthusiasm while worrying about Lin Shuang's existence. But Lin Zhihong soon made her forget all about the existence of everything. I just remember his enthusiasm like fire.

After the affair ended, Lin Zhihong held Liu Xiaoying in his arms: "Yingying, when spring begins, we will build a new house, and then ask Shuangshuang to sleep in a room by himself." It's so inconvenient now. Liu Xiaoying also felt that this was not good, but the current situation at home did not have much place for Lin Shuang to sleep in separate rooms.

"I see. It's just that we have enough money to start a house in the spring? Liu Xiaoying calculated, if the money was not big enough, she would borrow a few meetings.

Lin Zhihong smiled proudly: "Yingying, do you know how many banknotes I brought back this time?" Lin Zhihong couldn't wait to get up now and show the money to Liu Xiaoying, but he was reluctant to save the money in front of him. I had to say proudly: "You definitely can't guess!" ”

Liu Xiaoying tried to guess the amount: "Did you bring back a thousand yuan?" "The family has almost 2,000 yuan for frugality, and if there is another 1,000 yuan, I can borrow a little bit of money myself, and the house will be able to rise.

Lin Zhihong shook his head: "It's less, you guess more!" ”

"Two thousand?"

"That's not right!"

"Three thousand?"

"That's not right! Guess again! ”

Liu Xiaoying's heart jumped, how much money is there. "Don't guess, just say it, I can't guess!"

Lin Zhihong laughed twice, leaned into Liu Xiaoying's ear and whispered a number, which made Liu Xiaoying almost jump up: "Why are there so many!" How do you earn so much money! Don't do anything bad out there! Lin Zhihong's number made Liu Xiaoying's heart beat faster, but also made Liu Xiaoying feel frightened!

"Don't worry, I'm making this money above board!" Lin Zhihong also knew what Liu Xiaoying was worried about, and hurriedly reassured Liu Xiaoying: "I earned this money with Lin Zhifeng." The way to come is absolutely right. You don't have to worry about it. Saying that, he slowly explained the reason for making money to Liu Xiaoying, so as not to make his wife frightened.

Lin Zhihong came back with 5,000 yuan this time. When they were in Ningxia, Lin Zhihong and Lin Zhifeng helped the driver drive, and at the beginning, they just helped drive a car. But later, Lin Zhihong discovered the business opportunity, which was to switch things. Let's take an analogy. They went to City A, and City A's famous specialties were bowls, cups, and the like. Then they'll get some and sell it. came and went, the capital was more, and there were more things that could be bought, just like that, Lin Zhihong was able to bring so much money back.
