Chapter 73: Reunion after a long absence
Conan got on the train, sweating in a hurry, always worried that he wouldn't be able to catch up, and if he didn't get on the train, he would have to wait for the next shift, and he didn't know how long he would have to wait. The station is a short stay, not a destination, before leaving, you have to spend here, you don't sweat in a hurry, so it makes sense to hurry up and not late.
Ji Conan saw people coming and going looking for seats, fortunately, it was an air-conditioned car, which did not look very hot, but there were still a lot of sweat beads on the heads of the passengers who got on the bus, and it can be seen that people's heat starts from the heart, as the saying goes, the heart is calm and naturally cool, there is a certain truth.
It didn't take long for the car to start slowly, and at this time, people gradually quieted down, relieved by the sound of the wheels rolling.
The romance and excitement in Conan's heart prompted him to take out his mobile phone and send a text message to his beloved wife, telling her that he was in the car, that the car had departed, and that he would pinch his fingers and calculate how long it would take to get home. This is nothing, it should be fortune-telling, fortune-telling, nothing. If you meet a fortune teller, you can ask like this. In fact, Ji Conan has this trait. The statement of scientific arithmetic, that is, scientific fortune-telling, does not work for Ji Conan. Ji Conan himself can see the future according to the law. This is not a superpower, it is the result of careful thinking.
Every time I go out, I take it with me; Every time I go home, I do it with joy. That's how people contradict each other. I am annoyed, I want to see again, I want to be alone when I see it, I want to be alone for a long time, and I want to reunite, I want to reunite, I want to reunite. There are so many people, and it's very contradictory.
Conan is homesick and doesn't want to stay at home for a long time, this mentality makes him in a contradiction, thinking about his wife and afraid of his wife. Some are like Ye Gong Haolong.
The speed of the train has increased, the houses outside the window have been brushed backwards, and the buildings in the distance have risen from the ground, taking root step by step on the land on which human beings depend, and growing upwards. It's not Ji Conan's concern, and he doesn't feel particularly painful.
Conan's parents had the foresight to buy a house early, which saved Conan a lot of heart, so that Conan had a harbor of home, so that he would not worry about the house and give his offspring a place to live in peace, although it was not ideal, but it was also a piece of the old man's heart. Ji Conan may not be as good as his parents, and with his own ability, I am afraid it will be difficult to buy a house. In addition, he is not very interested in money. There isn't much copper stench.
With a house, then a wife, and then a son, without a foundation, the superstructure will only tilt and will soon collapse. It is true that only in peace can we be happy.
Conan's parents prepared a house for Conan, and Conan was no longer worried about the house, but people go to higher places, water flows to lower places, and with the current foundation, it is not wise to stop, Conan still wants to move to a better house, at least the transportation is more convenient, and the mobile phone signal is better, so as not to make a phone call and stand in a high place, or stick his head out of the window to shout, such a phone call, it is best not to repeat it.
Conan's home is not very high-end, and some decorations have been done simply, but compared with luxury decoration, it is still far from it.
The vicinity of Conan's home, which used to be an old factory, produced silk, was in the nature of a collective enterprise. Later, the efficiency of the factory became worse and worse, and even several factory directors were replaced, but the company failed to bring the enterprise back to life.
Later, the factory leaders sold the land to real estate developers, and then engaged in real estate development, building many new high-rise buildings, with low floors, a total of eight floors, but Conan lived on the first floor, and the mobile phone signal was completely intercepted by the high-rise buildings, resulting in poor calls.
Conan's wish is to be able to get rich quickly, buy another house, preferably in a place with a good signal, the home does not need to be big, as long as you can live, you can have a place to stack books.
As for living in a villa or something, I've thought about it, but it's a pipe dream, an illusory thing, and it's too unreliable. If you can live in a courtyard house, it is a beautiful house. Now they all like to live in high-rise buildings, Ji Conan prefers bungalows, only bungalows make people feel that they are a home, and everything else can't be called home, just a pigeon cage. People live in the lattice, and it's very uncomfortable. I could have lived to be a hundred years old, but because I was unhappy, I could only live to be ninety years old, and those ten years were taken away by sorrow.
Conan sat on the train and could think wildly. Before he knew it, as the car shook, Conan fell asleep.
There was silence around, Ji Conan thought that he had arrived at the station, if he didn't get off at the station, it would be troublesome, and the car would change the front of the car and drive back, then he wouldn't be depressed to death! Ji Conan opened his eyes, suddenly got up and looked out the window, and found that the train had stopped, and after about five minutes, a high-speed train roared by. Probably a bullet train. There was an uneasy commotion in the carriage.
Fast stuff is not good. When it comes to cars, if the speed is too fast, something can really happen. Conan preferred an ordinary train when he went out, just a mid-range speed, and he was not an important person, so why was he in such a hurry? If you don't choose the bullet train, it will be too fast. On the other hand, it is too expensive. The unit does not reimburse, and even the bus ticket has to be applied, not to mention the bullet train that is twice as expensive.
Another point, the mobile phone signal on the bullet train is not good, this for Conan, who likes to dance and write, the mobile phone can not access the Internet, which is equivalent to a lack of life, Conan can eat one less meal, and he does not want to survive in a closed environment.
The train began to start again, from slow to fast, and only in the speeding car did Conan's confidence and joy gradually increase, and he could not hide this joy, and involuntarily hummed a little tune.
Three and a half hours later, the train slowly pulled into the train station.
Out of the station, there are many people smoking in the crowd in front of the underpass, and on the ground of the underground passage, there are a lot of cigarette butts with sparks that are still smoking, although the smell of smoke is not pervasive, but the smell of choking people in the air is very rampant, and the quality of the citizens is reflected here. Smoking openly and unscrupulously in public, trying to be happy for oneself, regardless of the life or death of others, is a manifestation of self-interest. From Lin Zexu Humen to the beginning of smoking cessation, it is still very difficult to implement quitting smoking. It's just that smoking in public places is restricted, and the more restricted, the more people are eager to violate and do it, and only in this way can they feel enjoyable.
Some smokers are educated, some are uneducated, some are cultured at first, then they are uneducated, some are uneducated at first, and then they are cultured, in short, what they all have in common is that they all love to smoke openly. This has nothing to do with writers and thinkers and cultural people.
Conan exited the station, got on the bus, and headed home. Similarly, in order to save money, for the benefit of the unit, try to save expenses, so he doesn't fight.
After getting off the bus, Conan never expected that his wife would come to pick him up.
One of his wife's hair was gone, and she had short ear-length hair, and it looked like her face had become bigger without the foil of her hair. But his face was ruddy, and he completely lost the skin color peculiar to the face of a pregnant woman, and his stomach was pouted. The little one grows very quickly in the mother's belly. The cells keep doubling and fissiring into growth, I don't know why this little guy is in such a hurry to grow up, so anxious to come to this world.
Conan was of course very happy to see his wife, but after all, it was in China, and the two did not hug in public, but walked home together. His wife wanted to help Conan with something, but Conan refused. Because the wife herself has a burden, the little one is.
In order to please his wife, Conan sacrificed himself to visit his mother. This is typical, marrying a daughter-in-law and forgetting his mother, Conan hopes that his mother will understand.
The wife did not remind, but was very happy. In the past, one of the reasons for divorce was that if the wife was not filial to her in-laws, she could give her a letter of divorce and dismiss her, never to be used. Now, who would dare to do that? If you do it, it's the other way around. It is to divorce the husband, not the wife.
Especially if the wife is pregnant, even the mother-in-law has to retreat, and refuses to worry about trivial things and the daughter-in-law, because the daughter-in-law has a huge treasure in her belly, which is related to the problem of life, and the mother-in-law is a great grievance, and she can't vent it in front of her daughter-in-law, and in front of her son, she must also be restrained, don't sue, lest she be unhappy.
Conan didn't go to see his mother, mainly because he was afraid of things. Conan is timid by nature, and he can't deal with some problems tactfully, and he doesn't like to lie, so he became the target of public criticism, with his mother on one side and his wife on the other, caught in the middle, and angry at both ends, but he had to endure it at both ends, and he had to be a punching bag, so that both women could get angry. In such a position, in order to maintain the relationship between the two people, Ji Conan sometimes cannot be counted as a person.
Conan took the time to call his mother and said he was home. The next day, I wanted to go to my mother-in-law's house.
Of course, Conan's mother was fine, and she said, "Go ahead." Don't make your daughter-in-law angry. Wherever she wants to go, as long as you can, don't shirk it, go right away. It's all about the kids. ”
Sure enough, at the critical moment, Conan's mother was still reasonable. The daughter-in-law, of course, was pleased with Conan's performance, so they both returned to Conan's mother-in-law's house together.
Wife in the country.
Conan chose to work in society because he was interested in the countryside, especially for the tranquility of the countryside, and the country people were generally relatively simple, unlike some city people who were either treacherous or cunning or treacherous and cunning. I feel free and easy to deal with the countrymen, and I don't have to worry about saying the wrong thing or doing the wrong thing.
Conan's daughter-in-law's mother-in-law's home is on the edge of the reservoir and belongs to immigrants. Located in the place of "three regardless", the traffic is not very convenient. The roads are also terrible. Recently, a highway was built, and because of the crushing of construction vehicles, the road was originally difficult to walk, but it turned out to be worse, and it may not be repaired until the end of the project.
The weather in October was originally crisp and crisp, but it had only rained and the roads were thin. In the middle of the road, no one can walk, and only walk-behind tractors or other agricultural vehicles can rush through the mud. Vehicles with low chassis, such as sedans, simply can't drive. If you have to go, it is very likely to break down, and you can't go to the store before or after the village, it's really hellish and unlucky. At this time, no one can help.
The middle of the road is not easy to walk, and the two sides of the road are a little drier, and getting off the foot from the socket of the person's foot, and then stepping on another footprint, can barely avoid the fate of wet shoes.
If the mud is too sticky, take off your shoes and walk barefoot, it will be even more miserable, I don't know what it is, it will make people's feet itch.
Even so, Conan was willing to go, because his wife loved her mother very much.
His wife's older brothers and sisters are all out of town, and so is her sister, and at present, she is the only one closest to her mother. Her parents are old, and the old man's children are not with them, how can they not feel lonely?
After about forty minutes of walking, Conan and his wife finally arrived home.
Conan's father-in-law and mother-in-law were very happy and hurriedly beckoned to sit down. The old man panicked and made tea for Conan. Conan hurriedly got up and came by himself. Not to mention Conan's daughter-in-law, Conan also helped pour a glass of water. This is all about Conan's wife's face.
Conan's father-in-law came from a poor background, was exploited by large landowners in the past, and later became a poor peasant. Later, he joined the army and served as a soldier in Kyoto for ten years. Later, he transferred to a local area, and was reluctant to work in a common family unit, preferring to work in the family farm and accompany his wife. Because the mother-in-law is an only daughter, the father-in-law is considered a door-to-door son-in-law, and the family needs labor, so he does not come out to work. As for the fact that the public procuratorate and law basically stopped working at that time, illegal things happened everywhere, which was also the reason why the old man did not engage in public work.
The old man talked about this past and did not regret it. He and his wife were not separated, his style was fine, his position was firm, his roots were upright, and he was selected as a member of the supply and marketing cooperative. At that time, supply and marketing cooperatives were very popular trades. In the era of scarcity of materials, all supply materials with tickets, people are tied to the old man, every New Year's holiday, the family comes and goes, quite a good solid family.
My mother-in-law has also been to Kyoto, and she has opened her eyes, and she is much stronger than Conan. Conan has never been to Kyoto. I don't know what Chairman Mao looks like.
My mother-in-law had seen the history museum and the model of the Kyoto ape-man, and she believed that the man was transformed from an ape, and she still uses the bone fossils seen in Kyoto as evidence. When I talk to others in ordinary times, I have to admit that some phenomena cannot be explained by science.
The two of them are generally harmonious, and the old man can't sit still, he wants to do something all day long, and he can't be idle for a moment. Occasionally, when I was a little free, I began to listen to programs on the radio, and in addition to listening to the news, I also listened to local dramas, and enjoyed myself.
The wife's older brother works on the south side. Her sister-in-law is a native of Yueyang City, accustomed to life in the south, to her mother-in-law's house, very unaccustomed, plus there are some long-tongued women in the village, specifically to provoke the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so that the relationship between family members is very tense, after staying in the mother-in-law's house for a period of time, the husband and wife really can't stay, and the husband and wife both went to the south to make a living.
