On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Jiang Yu never came back after leaving, and he didn't even reply to messages on WeChat and QQ. But that's fine, save goodbye to his 'ugly' face. Despite comforting himself like this, to be honest, Wen Li misses him in his heart, especially every time he wants to call him from the window but remembers that he is not there.

It was the first time the three of them had been apart for so long since they had grown so big.

In the days when Jiang Yu was away, it was quite boring to be honest. Zhu Ying went to her grandmother's house in the countryside and updated the news every day, but across the screen, Wen Li couldn't share this joy with her. can only watch TV series and variety shows again and again.

Fortunately, today is the Lantern Festival, and Zhu Ying also came back yesterday and brought a lot of special products.

"Wen Li~ Did you miss me?" As soon as Zhu Ying got home, she put down her luggage and came to find Wen Li.

"I want to die, little piggy!" Wen Li, who was sitting on the sofa eating potato chips and watching TV, heard Zhu Ying's voice and hurriedly ran over to open the door, and as soon as he opened the door, he gave Zhu Ying a big bear hug.

"Oh my God, why have you gained so much weight, it's about to crush me!" As soon as Zhu Ying came up, she hit Wen Li.

"What's the matter, it's been too long since I've hugged you, so you're just not used to it."

"Every day, in addition to eating, you sleep, or lying down, it's strange if you're not fat!" Li Li heard the voice and followed Wen Li.

"Xiaoying is back, come into the house, come into the house, Wen Li bought a lot of delicious food."

"Okay Auntie!" Saying that, Wen Li hugged Zhu Ying into the house.

"Xiaoying, you guys come back so late and have dinner at our house tonight!" Li Li said.

"I can, but my mom shouldn't be able to, she's going to be on duty." Zhu Ying replied.

"Those who have a big holiday have to be on duty! So she didn't eat dinner? Li Li asked excitedly.

"I guess let's go to the unit cafeteria to eat."

"Then what's the matter, the pork rib soup stewed in the kitchen is ready, I'll serve her some and let her take it away!" After speaking, Li Li went into the kitchen to serve the soup.

After a while, Li Li opened the door with a thermos bucket and went out, and it was estimated that it was another 'tear', but in any case, the final winner must be Li Li.

"I'm so embarrassed, thank you!" Zhu Ying's mother said.

"Harm! It's just a bowl of soup, okay, I'll go back. So saying, he closed the door.

"Xiaoying, your mother has gone to work, and it is estimated that she will not be able to come back at night, you can sleep with Wen Li, and we will go to school together tomorrow." Li Li relayed the words of Zhu Ying's mother to Zhu Ying.

"Okay Auntie!" Zhu Ying replied.

After Li Li finished speaking, she went back to the kitchen to work, because school will start tomorrow, so Wen Hai sorted out the things used for school in the study.

"By the way, Jiang Yu still hasn't heard from him? What if school starts tomorrow? Zhu Ying asked.

"I don't know, I haven't replied to the message, do you think he will never come back." Wen Li said, picked up the apple on the coffee table again and began to nibble, and stuffed one for Zhu Ying.

"Wouldn't it?! I didn't even see him for the last time! Zhu Ying was shocked, put the apple back in the fruit bowl, and looked at Wen Li with a serious face.

Wen Li took a bite of the apple, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly put the apple down.

"When I met him, he said that I should wait for him at home, and he tried to come back early."

"Ah~ Did he really say that? Not kidding, right? ”

"His tone at the time didn't seem like a joke, and it felt really reluctant." Wen Li recalled for a moment and said.

"Oh my God, why didn't you tell me sooner!" Zhu Ying slumped on the sofa all of a sudden.

"I didn't know he wouldn't be able to come back~" Wen Li was also deflated all of a sudden.

The two of them just spread out on the sofa, didn't say anything, and each thought about his own thoughts.

"How could he not come back?" Wen Li kept recalling the scene of being separated from him that day, and never imagined that it would be the last time.

"You left without even saying goodbye to me, don't you care about me so much? Why did I sleep in that morning! The more Zhu Ying thought about it, the more she blamed herself, and even her nose was a little sour.

"What's the matter with you, what are your expressions?" Wen Hai came out of the study to pour water, and saw Wen Li and Zhu Ying sitting on the sofa doing nothing, watching TV in a daze.

"Dad, Jiang Yu and his family can't come back?" Wen Li asked cautiously.

"How do you know they can't come back, their flight is delayed, and it's estimated that it will be tomorrow afternoon here!" Wenhai replied.

"What? Will they come back? Wen Li asked excitedly, and Zhu Ying also sat up straight.

"You're asking whether they reply or not, right? You can't express yourself clearly. Wen Hai didn't understand what Wen Li was asking.

"We thought that Jiang Yu and they were left in the research institute and not allowed to come back." Zhu Ying explained.

"That's not, they just won't come back for the festival today, or they won't stay there and not come back." Wen Hai understood.

"That's good!" Wen Li said with relief, and then picked up the unfinished apple again.

"What's good, it's okay that you can't pass the festival, how can you think so!" Wen Hai didn't understand what her daughter was thinking, but seeing that she wasn't going to say anything more, she continued to go back to the study after pouring water.

"Just come back!" Wen Li thought to himself.

Zhu Ying also picked up the apple and began to bite, the more she thought about it, the happier she became.

"It's time to eat, comrades, it's time to wash your hands and eat." Li Li shouted in the kitchen.

Wen Li and Zhu Ying went to the bathroom to wash their hands when they heard the sound, and Wen Hai also came out of the study.

After the meals were served on the table, Li Li announced that it was going to start.

"When will Jiang Yu and his family come back?" Li Li asked.

"Their flight was delayed, and it is estimated that they will be at the airport tomorrow afternoon." Wen Hai replied while tuning the TV channel.

"And how do they celebrate the holidays?" Li Li asked again.

"I don't know about this, and Lao Jiang didn't say it." Wenhai tuned the TV to the central set, just as the Lantern Festival party began.

"How do you know when they'll be back?" Wen Li asked while nibbling on pork ribs, he wanted to ask his father just now, but he forgot about it when he was excited.

"I said fifteen times on the day I left, but in the afternoon, your Uncle Jiang called again and said that the flight was delayed and he couldn't come back today." Wenhai replied.

"Oh, that's it!" Wen Li thought about it for a while, and his parents were chatting with Uncle Jiang on the day they left, but he didn't care about it, and patronized and quarreled with Jiang Yu.

Thinking of this, I'm quite sorry for Zhu Ying, I didn't think about it just now, it seems that Zhu Ying is quite sad to hear the news that they can't come back.

Wen Li humbly sandwiched a piece of pork ribs for Zhu Ying.

"Why did this rib fall on the table?" Zhu Ying asked.

"Tsk~ This piece has crispy bones, don't you like to eat crispy bones the most!" Wen Li's explanation of the heart.

Zhu Ying was skeptical, but still ate happily.

After dinner, Wen Li and Zhu Ying were urged to wash up before they finished the party, because they had to get up early to start school tomorrow.

After preparing the clothes to be worn for the start of school tomorrow and putting away the schoolbag, Wen Li happily got into the bed.

"Little Piggy, I'll come~"

"Oops, your feet are cold, don't touch me!"
