Chapter 18 Returning Home for Vacation
(xviii)
At dawn, Zhongshan woke up from his sleep and the train arrived at Taean Station.
The moment the car stopped, Wang Danyu felt an instant lack of oxygen in his brain, a burst of dizziness, and the boiled water he had drunk the night before began to gush into his throat. She quickly pushed past the crowded passengers in the carriage and rushed to the sink.
Because she didn't sleep all night the night before, Wang Danyu was in a state of motion sickness all day the next day, which was something she had never had on a train alone before. Zhong Shan asked Dan Yu if she wanted something to eat, and she turned pale and just shook her head.
Faced with the sick Danyu, Zhongshan had nothing to do. From childhood to adulthood, he has been a character who has been taken care of, and he has never had the opportunity or learned to take care of others. Until another night came, he still asked again and again, "Would you like to eat something" and "Drink some water", and she still just shook her head. The eldest sister who just got in the car next to her said, "I get motion sickness when I get in the car, and rheumatism cream on the navel eye is very effective", and gave Danyu a post of rheumatism cream she brought. Danyu went to the toilet and posted it, and sure enough, it had some effect. After a toss, I was really a little sleepy, closed my eyes, and after a while, people entered a state of not waking up, and the voices of the people around me could still be heard, but the content of the words could not enter their own thinking at all. In the second half of the night, after everyone in the carriage had fallen asleep, Danyu woke up again, and looked sideways at the sleeping Zhong Shan's angular and handsome young face, with mixed feelings in his heart.
The train arrived in the early morning of the third day, and the next stop in Aoyama was Hakusan. After saying goodbye to Dan Woo, Zhong San stepped off the train with his luggage and walked to the platform.
Greeting Zhong Shan on the platform was Lin Meihui, who was wearing a long red tweed coat and long black leather boots, and Dan Woo could only see a long string of white mist spit out by this modern girl through the glass window of the train, and he didn't know what to say. As the two approached, Mie stepped forward, not taking the luggage, but wrapping her arms around Zhong Shan's neck and pressing her face tightly against his. Witnessing this scene, Danyu was really full of tears flying at this time.
Because Meihui volunteered to pick up Zhong Shan at the station, Zhong Shulin and his family went to the morning market early in the morning, and they bought all kinds of chicken, duck and fish. When Mie Zhongshan knocked on the door, a sumptuous breakfast had been set.
In less than five months of separation, the son in the mother's eyes has grown taller and stronger again, and there is maturity between his eyebrows, as if he is no longer her own son, and has become a "familiar stranger". The mother hurriedly took the luggage in the hands of Zhongshan and Meihui, and instructed her son to take off his coat and pants first, put them in the bathroom and wait for her to wash, wash his face, eat first, and sleep well after eating to relieve the fatigue of the ride along the way. The mother was in a hurry to tell her son to do this and that, while the father hurriedly lit a cigarette to match his wife's hecticism.
Breakfast is a hot noodle soup with a few stir-fried dishes, following the custom of "getting on the car and getting off the dumplings". The four of them sat at the dining table, and the father asked slowly: "Zhong Shan, have you adapted to Jiangcheng in the past six months?" The son stopped the chopsticks that were picking up a noodle in his hand and said, "It's okay." The mother hurriedly glared at her wife with her eyes, and said angrily: "Let the child eat with peace of mind, a holiday, my son has time to tell you slowly." The father was speechless.
In the half year that his son left home to go to school, Zhong Shulin completely handed himself over to his wife to manage. In the eyes of outsiders, Lao Zhong has changed his habit of being alone for half his life, and he follows his wife and obeys his words. In Zhong Shulin's heart, it is actually the companionship of his wife. The son who has been raised for more than 20 years suddenly left home, and the mother lost her soul for a long time, and she didn't think about tea and dinner. Zhong Shulin felt that it was his responsibility and obligation to accompany her through this difficult time. said to others, "Why do you live more and more unproductively, when you get old, you are starting to be afraid of your wife." ”
