May Day in 2009 is coming soon, and the man and Liu Li decided to go back to their hometown to have a look.

While packing her luggage, Liu Li said to the man: "Husband, I want to go to your house for a few days when I go home this year." ”

The man was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Why?" You haven't been home for a long time, and you don't hurry home to accompany your parents when you get to Northern City. ”

Liu Li threw a pair of jeans into the box, stood up and said, "We have been together for so long, I asked you to go to my house, but you always said that it was not time yet, since you didn't come to my house, I could always go to your house, right?" ”

has lived with Liu Li for so long, Liu Li has invited men to her house many times to meet her parents, and men always find ways to prevaricate in the past. On the surface, he said that he was afraid that the people in Taiwan would find out about their relationship and spread gossip, which would be bad for Liu Li. In fact, it is the man who still has many doubts about the future of the two of them deep down. But after all, after being together for so long, Liu Li's request is not too reasonable, and he really has no reason to refuse.

So, the man nodded and said, "Okay, you can come if you want." ”

"Oh yes!" Liu Li didn't expect the man to agree so readily, and she was very happy.

"However," the man said to Liu Li seriously, "our family conditions are not good, we live in an old house, and the food and use are also poor, you have to be mentally prepared, don't play with your eldest lady's temper at that time." ”

Liu Li ran over with a smile, grabbed the man's arm, shook it and said, "Husband, no." As long as I'm with you, I'll be happy to eat tofu dregs. ”

With the sound of the train's flute, the station entered. The man rubbed his eyes, pushed Liu Li and said, "Wake up, wake up, I'm home." ”

Liu Li opened her misty eyes, yawned, and gradually came to her senses. The man stood up, moved his body, took the luggage off the shelf, and said to Liu Li: "I'll take a taxi to send you back first, and then I'll go home and have a look, and I'll pick you up at my house in two days." ”

"No," Liu Li also stood up and stretched, "I asked my dad to send a car to pick us up and go directly to your house." The man was stunned, thought about it, oh, and didn't refuse again.

I got off the train and arrived at the west entrance of the North City Railway Station, where an Audi was already waiting. The driver recognized Liu Li at a glance, and ran over with a smile on his face and said, "The princess is back!" Liu Li didn't pay much attention to him, and went straight to the car, and the driver quickly took the luggage from the man. He glanced at the man a few times, as if he was a little familiar but couldn't recognize it, so he could only politely say hello. The man didn't say much, of course he recognized this person, it was Liu Li's father's driver. In the past, when he worked in the northern station, he didn't see each other much when he came out and went in, the difference is that the man used to be like air in this person's eyes, but today he has to remember this young man, because he has been keenly aware that this person may be his new master in the future.

After getting into the car, the driver drove directly to Jianshe Road and walked in the direction of the TV station's family hospital. Liu Li hurriedly stopped and said, "Brother Sun, I'm not going home, I'm going to Baishan Road." ”

"Ahh Brother Sun braked suddenly, hit the steering wheel, and walked in the direction of Baishan Road.

Brother Sun has been driving for the leader for so many years, and he knows the rules very well, although Liu Li is not a leader, he still maintains a good professional style, let him go wherever he goes, and he doesn't ask a word.

The northern city is not big, and it will soon be on Baishan Road. Brother Sun took the luggage off the car and asked Liu Li with a smile: "Princess, what time will I pick you up?" ”

Liu Li waved her hand and said, "No need, I'll call you tomorrow when I go home." ”

Brother Sun was a little prosperous, looked at the man, seemed to understand something, and said with a smile: "Okay." Before leaving, he came over and shook hands with the man, "Okay brother, I'll go first, call me anytime if you have something." ”

The man hurriedly said politely: "Thank you for your hard work!" Brother Sun got into the car, stepped on the accelerator and left.

The man looked at Brother Sun's car and didn't move for a long time. Liu Li came over and pulled the box, beckoned the man and said, "Let's go, what are you doing?" ”

The man still didn't move, Liu Li stopped and came over to ask, "What's wrong with you?" ”

The man was a little dissatisfied and asked Liu Li: "How can you decide for yourself?" Didn't you say okay, you go home first, I'll say hello to my parents tonight, make arrangements, and you will come back in a few days? What a haste you've made. ”

Liu Li laughed, she grabbed the man's arm and walked forward, "What kind of hello, I just want to surprise your parents." The man was dragged forward, with a helpless face.

The man's family lived in a dilapidated community in the 90s of the 20th century, which was the fund-raising house in the man's mother's factory. The workers in the factory still maintain some of the bad habits of living in bungalows, and the corridors are full of honeycomb coal, broken cardboard boxes, old furniture, etc. The man and Liu Li carried two large boxes, and each floor was like a battle.

The two of them finally climbed to the sixth floor, exhausted and panting. The man rang the doorbell. There was a sound of slippers in the house, and the man knew that his mother was home.

"I'm back!" The man's mother happily opened the door and was stunned when she saw a girl standing behind the man. The man told them in advance that he would bring Liu Li to his house to sit when he came back this time, but he didn't expect to bring it directly after the train.

Without waiting for the male mother to open her mouth, Liu Li waved her hand and said politely: "Hello mother!" This "mother" made the male mother sincerely happy. She was a little at a loss and said incoherently, "Oh, oh, hello, hello, come in." Come out, old man, my son is back with his girlfriend! ”

The man's father also hurriedly came out of the kitchen, wiped the water on his hands and said, "I'm back, come into the house." Then he just laughed dryly, not knowing what to say.

The man put his luggage in his cabin, then walked to the living room and formally introduced: "Dad, Mom, this is Liu Li, my former colleague from Northern Television, now ......" He glanced at Liu Li, "We are together." The old couple laughed from ear to ear, and they responded vigorously.

Liu Li stepped forward happily, held the man's arm tightly, and rested her head on the man's shoulder.

The old man was happy, but he still looked very restrained when facing Liu Li, and scrambled to hide in the kitchen to cook. Liu Li has been with the man for so long, and the first time she came to the man's house, she curiously walked around the house, looking here and there. The man walked over and patted her on the back and whispered, "What are you doing?" Like a thief. ”

Liu Li looked at a photo album at the innermost of the cabinet and said, "I want to see what your past is like." As he spoke, he began to look through the album. At this time, the man's mother called the man: "Come and serve the meal, it's time to eat." The man groaned, got up and went to the kitchen.

After a while, the food was put on the table, and the male mother hurriedly called Liu Li to eat. Liu Li looked at the six dishes on the table: stewed chicken wings, stir-fried pork belly, stir-fried lotus vegetables, leek eggs, cashew shrimp and a spinach.

"Here, girl, eat this." The male mother picked up a piece of chicken wings and put it in Liu Li's bowl, and Liu Li hurriedly caught it. She took a bite, her expression was obviously a little embarrassed, she glanced at the man, and swallowed. The man also hurriedly put a piece into his mouth, only to know that due to the lack of heat in the stew, the chicken wings were a little bitten, and they were not handled very well, and the fishy smell was very heavy. He tasted the cashew shrimp again, and the shrimp was also fried and shrunk a little, and the bite was like a rubber band in his mouth. In fact, this is also expected by the man, his parents are very untalented in cooking, and the biggest feature of cooking for so many years is to ensure that they can be cooked.

In order to break the silence, the man asked, "Mom, what are you doing at home now?" ”

"Oh, we're having a good time, visiting our second home every day."

"What second home?" The man looked puzzled.

The man's father smiled and said, "What a second home is People's Park." Your mother went to the circle every day and found a stone bench, under a tree vine, very hidden, she always went there to rest, and said that it was her second home. ”

The man and Liu Li both laughed, and Liu Li said: "The People's Park is also very close to my house, and if you have the opportunity, it is convenient for you to go to my house to live." ”

The male mother oh oh oh twice, as if thinking in his mind, there is no community in that area, so he asked innocently: "Is there a community in that area of People's Park?" ”

"Yes." Liu Li continued, "It's at the back gate of People's Park, the family home of the provincial party committee. The male mother said two more oh oh oh oh

Everyone chatted while eating, Liu Li behaved well, did not do anything that worried the man, and she was quite happy to chat with the old man. Gradually, the old man talked more, and began to tell Liu Li about the man's childhood. Liu Li was obviously very interested and asked this and that.

After eating, the man's father went to the kitchen to clean up, and the man's mother happily pulled Liu Li to chat. The man was playing with his phone. After a while, the man's father finished cleaning up the kitchen and sat on the sofa. Liu Li saw that everyone had arrived, got up and returned to the back room, took out two boxes from her box, walked to the man's parents and said, "Mom and Dad, I brought you a gift from Beijing." After speaking, he opened one of the boxes and handed it to the man's mother, "I heard the man say that you have never had a decent piece of jewelry in your life, so I bought you a gold ring." You try to see if it's good. ”

The male mother was both surprised and surprised: "Ouch, look at this girl, you didn't tell us in advance when you came this time, I ...... this time" Saying, the male mother hurriedly touched his pocket, looking like he wanted to take a red envelope from his wallet. Liu Li pressed it and said, "Mom, I really don't need it, there will be a long time in the future." After speaking, he opened another box and handed it to the man's father, "This is a handball for Dad." "The man also poked his head to see that it was a pair of handballs with mutton fat and white jade, the color was warm and smooth, glowing with a soft white light, and it was estimated that it was not cheap." The man said that he had bought you a pair of ten dollars before, and it must have been resin. This is a real jade, you can play with it, it's good for your body. The man's father quickly wiped his hand on his body and took it carefully.

The two old men were happy with the gifts, they didn't care about the value of things, Liu Li's heart made the old man very useful. The male mother held the gift and said happily: "Ouch, Liu Li is really a good girl, she will have children in the future, but she can't follow the man and the man, she doesn't understand human feelings, she must follow you, know the cold and the hot, and attract people." ”

The man was a little helpless, and said to his mother: "What are you talking about, you still have children, you really think far enough." ”

The male mother laughed, and Liu Li also smiled and said: "That's it, what kind of child to have, I don't want to give birth, how troublesome, it's good for the two of us to live." ”

The man's mother's smile suddenly froze, and she glanced at the man's father. When the man's father heard this, the hand that turned the handball stopped, and he silently put the handball back in the box.

A few people chatted for a while, Liu Li kept yawning, and got up early in the morning to catch the train, and it seemed that she was sleepy. The two old men hurriedly adjusted the water heater, afraid that it would be inconvenient to walk around the small room, so they said hello and went into their room and did not come out. The man explained to Liu Li how to take a bath, got her a new set of towels, and lay on the bed by himself, looking through the photo album that Liu Li had just flipped through on the bedside table. Suddenly, he noticed that a few photos were missing from the album. He clearly remembered that there was a photo of him and Jiajia in it.

The man and Jiajia have been together for so many years, and there are almost no group photos. A small number of group photos are also mainly in Jiajia's hands, after the breakup, the only three remaining group photos in the male and male hands, one is close to graduation, taken in the school library; One was taken by the two of them when he first went to work at DT; There is also a photo of when I first rented the house, and the two of them felt that they finally had a home, as a commemorative photo. He flipped through the photo album back and forth, and found that there was no, and he concluded that Liu Li took it.

After half an hour, Liu Li came out of the shower. The man closed the door of his room and asked in a low voice, "Liu Li, I have a few photos missing, have you taken them?" ”

Liu Li was blowing her hair, the hair dryer was buzzing, and Liu Li didn't speak.

The man thought she hadn't heard, so he waited for her to finish blowing her hair.

After blowing her hair, Liu Li began to make a mask, and the man asked again: "Liu Li, what about you, what about my photos?" ”

"What photo?" Liu Li looked in the mirror and said calmly.

"It's in this album," the man stood up and walked to Liu Li with the album, "On the back cover of this album, I stuffed a few photos, why are they missing?" ”

Liu Li glanced at the man, turned her head and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, "Tell me what the photo is first?" ”

The man concluded that Liu Li must have seen the photos and took them, so he walked over and sat next to Liu Li, "You give it to me, I don't mean anything else, just to make a souvenir." ”

"Remembrance? What do you tell me to commemorate? Liu Li's words had a ** flavor in them.

The man looked at his parents' room opposite, suppressed his anger and said, "Liu Li, you don't know that I have been with Jiajia for so many years, we have been separated for so long, after all, it is an experience, I can't leave a few photos, right?" Liu Li didn't say anything and continued to make the mask.

The man looked at Liu Li, and after a while, he really couldn't hold back his anger, he lowered his voice and said to Liu Li: "Don't be angry, you give me back the photo, hurry up." ”

Liu Li glared at the man angrily and said, "I didn't take it." ”

"Liu Li, don't be unreasonable," he glanced out the door, "My parents are here, I don't want to quarrel with you, let's go back to Beijing if there is anything." ”

"Say what?" Liu Liteng stood up, "After so long, you still keep the photo, I think you don't give up, right?" ”

The man was so angry that his chest fell together, he suppressed his anger, and then asked: "Okay, what do you like to say, return the photo to me first." ”

"Thrown."

"Thrown?" The man was shocked, he knew Liu Li, this person was willful, but he did everything, "Where did you throw it?" ”

Liu Li pointed to the toilet, "Why am I in a hurry to take a shower?" I'm just going to tear up your broken picture. I was torn to pieces and couldn't be relieved, I should have been burned. ”

The man gritted his teeth and pulled the door open, rushed to the toilet, and looked at the garbage basket, where there was nothing but a bit of toilet paper. He returned to the house, "What about the fragments? Why didn't I see it? ”

Liu Li sneered and said, "Didn't you hear that I flushed the toilet several times when I took a bath, your toilet is not easy to use, I didn't flush it clean once, I flushed it several times." ”

The man was so angry that his lungs were about to explode, he grabbed Liu Li's arm, pressed her against the wall and said, "Is this your home?" Who told you to touch my stuff? The man used too much force and pinched Liu Li painfully.

The pain in the flesh and the grievance in her heart, Liu Liwa cried loudly, "Du Nannan, I am so good to you, you still think about her, your heart is eaten by the dog, right?" You're going to strangle me with just a few broken photos, are you? Do you still have a conscience! The man covered Liu Li's mouth, lowered his voice and said angrily: "Give you a minute, put on your clothes and get out!" ”

Liu Li put on her clothes in a haphazard manner, pulled open the door and ran out, slamming the security door with all her might, and with a bang, the voice-activated lights of the entire building turned on.

The man sat down on the bed, trembling with anger. The man's parents heard that there was no movement here, so they walked out cautiously. When the male mother entered the house, Liu Li was gone, and asked anxiously: "Man, where is Liu Li?" Yes? What about people? The man didn't speak. The male mother was so anxious, "Look at you, why are you so angry?" Me too, it's good to mention what to have a child, she doesn't want to give birth, she won't give birth. The child is still young, and he has been married for a long time, so he naturally wants to open it, and now you are forcing people to talk about it, and a little girl can't accept it all of a sudden, you still ......"

The man's mother was about to say, but the man stood up irritably and pushed her out, "Okay, okay, you don't know anything, don't make a mess here, go to sleep." ”
