Chapter 42: Dad, My Mom
At noon, after Tang Yuyan and the others went home to eat, Tang Yuyan, Tang Yuran, and Tang Yuchen all gave up their lunch break to clean the master bedroom and living room.
Before school in the afternoon, the bedroom and living room were cleaned.
Today, my grandmother hardly went out and was always at home waiting for my parents to come back.
The grandmother was afraid that her daughter and son-in-law would come back as soon as she went out, and such a miss on the grandmother was not allowed.
14:00 Grandma leaves the rattan chair on the balcony and walks to the kitchen.
14:05 The phone rings in the living room, and Grandma leaves the kitchen to answer the phone.
The call was from my mother, who said they had about an hour to get home.
Grandma put down the phone and went back to the kitchen.
15:25 Mom and Dad took a taxi to the downstairs of the community and began to walk home with large bags and small bags.
"Oops, I'm finally back, come in, come in" Grandma opened the door early after hearing their conversation while Mom and Dad were going upstairs.
"Mom, let's just come, you don't have to do it, you can come into the house quickly!"
Mom hurried back after watching her grandmother reach out to help her carry the suitcase.
Grandma also knows how strong she is, and she usually carries some meat and vegetables by herself, but it is still a little difficult to really carry the suitcase in her mother's hand, after all, her grandmother is already an old lady in her seventies.
While Mom and Dad were carrying their luggage, Grandma turned around and went back to the kitchen and brought out the noodles that had just been cooked a few minutes earlier.
At the top of the noodles, there is also a fried brown and crispy egg, and under the egg is some green vegetable leaves.
When my grandmother brought out two bowls of fragrant noodles from the kitchen, she went back to the kitchen and put many bottles and jars of spices on the table one by one.
After moving the last suitcase, Mom and Dad took off their coats and threw them on the sofa, intending to sit down and rest.
"Little Wu, you two come over to eat first, and I will cook noodles for you."
After watching my parents move all their luggage back to the living room, my grandmother shouted at my parents who were resting on the sofa.
The old lady waited for the two of them to eat, and her parents were embarrassed to let the old man wait longer, mainly because he was hungry.
My parents thanked my grandmother first, and after thanking them, I ate the noodles in a big gulp, praising my grandmother's delicious and fragrant noodles while eating.
Most families take the help given by their families for granted, but Tang Yuyan's family is different.
Tang Yuyan's children have been educated by their parents since they were children, and no matter who helped them, they have to thank them.
The 'who' here not only refers to the service staff of the hotel, but also the service staff of the scenic spots, and most importantly, the family members.
Parents also teach by word and deed, and they keep the word 'thank you' on their lips for a long time.
Therefore, Tang Yuyan's children can become other people's mouths, 'other people's children', not only because they are good at learning, but also because their conduct is not bad.
After eating the noodles, my parents began to pack their luggage carefully, first picked up all the clothes and put them in the closet, and then took out the gifts for the family.
Mom took the coat in her hand in the bedroom and walked briskly to the living room.
"Mom, you can try this coat and see if it fits."
This is the coat that my mother bought for my grandmother in the mall last time.
"Buy me new clothes, I'm so old, what new clothes do I wear?"
Although my grandmother said no, she still smiled and put on the coat in her mother's hand.
After my mother helped my grandmother zipper her clothes, my grandmother straightened her clothes and asked.
"You see I look good."
"It's good-looking, who's this old lady, so good-looking!" Mom came back with a smile.
"I also think it's good-looking, mainly because the color of the dress is good-looking."
My grandmother said that she looked good before she went to the fitting mirror, and it seemed that she was very satisfied with the gift that her mother had prepared for her.
Then, my grandmother went to the fitting mirror in her new clothes, looked back and forth several times, and then changed into new clothes and hung them back in the closet.
"How did you take it off?" asked my mother, confused.
"New clothes should be worn for the New Year." Grandma said with a smile.
"It's okay, you wear it, you look good."
After some persuasion from my mother, my grandmother still said that she would wear it tomorrow.
Tang Yuyan was the first to get home, and the first thing she saw when she got home was her father sitting on the sofa watching TV.
Tang Yuyan greeted her father warmly and said, "Dad, welcome home." ”
After finishing speaking, after changing into slippers and throwing the schoolbag on the sofa, the whole person fell into his father's arms.
"Yo, our Yu Yan is back, and I haven't seen her for a year and I'm a lot more beautiful."
Dad hugged Tang Yuyan who threw herself in his arms and said with a smile.
"Dad" Tang Yuyan shouted tactfully, left her father's arms, and then asked: "My mother, why didn't you see my mother." ”
"Your mom is upstairs packing up." Dad pointed upstairs to the master bedroom.
"Then I'll go find my mom." After Tang Yuyan finished speaking, she didn't give her father time to react, turned her head and ran upstairs.
"Mom, I'm back." After Tang Yuyan saw that her mother was still packing her suitcase, she hugged her mother from behind and said.
Mother Reincarnation looked at Tang Yuyan, rubbed Tang Yuyan's head, and smiled: "I know, mother's little girl." Have you listened to your grandmother at home? ”
"Yes," Tang Yuyan returned with a smile.
"Mom, I'm going to do my homework first, and it's the end of the semester in a while, and I still have to review Le."
After Tang Yuyan told her mother about the time of the final exam, she left the bedroom, returned downstairs, and returned to the study after the schoolbag.
Soon after Tang Yuyan arrived home, Tang Yuran and Tang Yuchen also arrived home.
Like Tang Yuyan, the two of them said hello to their father, and after hugging their father, they also asked, "Dad, my mother." ”
By the time all three of them had gone to the study to begin studying, half an hour had passed.
When Tang Yuyan finished her homework, she then took out another set of textbooks at home.
"Sister, how long does it take you to memorize a text as fast as possible?" Tang Yurou looked at Tang Yuyan and asked.
"Why do you suddenly ask that?" Tang Yuyan put down the textbook and looked at Tang Yuran and said.
"We memorized the text today, and I haven't been able to memorize it, and the other students have memorized it, but I haven't memorized it yet." Tang Yuran returned disappointed.
"Then you still don't want to know how quickly I can recite it, I'm afraid of hitting you." Tang Yuyan said with a smile.
"Eldest sister, you can't say that because you're slow to memorize, are you?" Tang Yuchen also finished his homework, put down the pen and moved his wrist to say.
"It's really not me who blows, otherwise you can find a text and recite it for you in minutes, believe it or not."
Tang Yuyan was also in a hurry, and she was immediately aroused by her desire to fight.
"This is what you said, memorize it in minutes, if you don't memorize it, what should I do?" Tang Yuchen continued.
"How about 200 bucks." Tang Yuyan said and took out 200 yuan from the drawer of the desk and put it on the table.
"Yes" Tang Yuchen replied with a smile after seeing the cash.
"Then you don't have a bet?" Tang Yuyan asked rhetorically.
"My second sister and I have 100 yuan each, how about it." Tang Yuchen thought about it and took out 100 yuan from the desk.
Tang Yuran saw that his sister and brother had made serious bets, and he also took out 100 yuan from the drawer.
"I didn't expect you to be local tyrants, okay, you can choose a course and ask!" Tang Yuyan said when she saw the 100 yuan in front of each of them.
After Tang Yuyan asked them to choose a course, Tang Yuran and Tang Yuchen muttered and discussed for a long time, and finally decided to choose a classical Chinese.
First, classical Chinese memorization requires comprehension.
Second, there are many rare words in classical Chinese, which can also increase the difficulty of memorization.
Thirdly, they think that this classical Chinese is the most difficult article to memorize, and other articles are not as difficult as classical Chinese.
After discussing the scope of recitation, the two took out the basic Tang poems and Song lyrics from the bookshelf.
In the end, I found a "Lisao" and "Getaway".
"Sister, the two of us make a bet like you, do you want to memorize two articles?" Tang Yuran couldn't decide which one to choose, so he asked out loud.
"No problem" Tang Yuyan returned without blinking.
"Then we've chosen, just these two." Tang Yuchen said immediately after Tang Yuyan answered.
After speaking, Tang Yuchen walked up to the balcony and pointed out the two articles in his hand to Tang Yuyan.
"You're sure that's all there is to it, it won't change." Tang Yuyan reconfirmed in the spirit of the contract.
Tang Yuran and Tang Yuchen glanced at each other, and after Tang Yuran nodded and confirmed, Tang Yuchen said: "Just these two articles, unchanged." ”
"That's what you say." After Tang Yuyan finished speaking, she took the book in Tang Yuchen's hand and read it quickly.
In fact, Tang Yuyan also memorized these two classical Chinese texts in her previous life, but they were all excerpts and fragments. Unlike now, Tang Yuchen gave her the whole article.
Two classical Chinese texts, the whole text of "Getaway" is 803 words, Tang Yuyan took 8 minutes to read and comprehend, and the whole poem of "Lisao" is 373 sentences, a total of 2490 words, and Tang Yuyan spent 24 minutes to memorize and understand.
Two pieces of classical Chinese, Tang Yuyan took a total of 32 minutes.
After reading the two pieces of classical Chinese, Tang Yuyan closed the book, closed her eyes and thought about it carefully, then opened her eyes two minutes later, looked at Tang Yuran and Tang Yuchen and said, "OK, I've memorized it." ”
"So fast!" Tang Yuran asked in surprise.
Tang Yuyan looked at the small alarm clock on the desk, it had taken half an hour since she got the recitation topic, could she still call it fast?
Tang Yuyan thought silently, these two articles add up to less than 3,000 words, and it took her half an hour to memorize them, she couldn't be more slow, it seems that she will have to memorize them after today.
"Then I'll start endorsing it." Tang Yuyan closed all the books on the table as she spoke, and then handed the decibel of the books printed with the two classical Chinese texts "Getaway" and "Lisao" to Tang Yuran and Tang Yuchen.
After Tang Yuran and Tang Yuchen took the book, they confirmed again: "Eldest sister, you really memorized it, you didn't lie to us, right?" ”
"You can test me, I won't refuse to come!" Tang Yuyan shrugged and said.
"Yu Yan, Yu Ran, Yu Chen, come out for dinner." Dad shouted downstairs.
"Dad called us to dinner, and we were on our backs after eating, okay?" Tang Yuchen asked.
Come to the acceptance after a while, which is a bit unfair to Tang Yuyan.
After all, the classical Chinese that has just been memorized can only be regarded as an instantaneous memory, that is, this memory is only retained during this time, and after this time, it is difficult to remember what was previously memorized.
"No problem!" Tang Yuyan returned confidently.
