Shangrao County, a small county across the mountain from Binhai City, is not as prosperous as Binhai.

At the entrance of an old-fashioned multi-storey community, a black Mercedes-Benz slowly stopped.

The appearance of this car attracted many people to stop and watch, after all, such a luxury car is rare in this county.

In the passenger seat, Jiang Ling slowly rolled down the window.

Looking at the two towering banyan trees at the entrance of the community, I pulled my thoughts back to my childhood for a while.

It was as if the innocent laughter at that time was still lingering in my ears, as if it was yesterday.

"Do you remember everything I explained?"

After a long time, Jiang Ling looked back at the nightingale in the driver's seat and asked.

"True Zen rest assured, his subordinates will do their best."

Jiang Ling opened the car door, straightened his clothes, and walked down.

Even though time has passed, even if it has been five years away, Jiang Ling still relied on his intuition to find his home accurately.

From Jiang Ping's letter, Jiang Ling learned that Jiang Ping was going to take his parents to live in Binhai.

But the two said that they were used to the slow time of the small county, and they were already deeply rooted here and were reluctant to leave.

Jiang Ping didn't force it, as long as he had free time, he would run home.

Standing at the door, Jiang Ling took two deep breaths, put away his unsmiling seriousness, and knocked on the door.

"Knock knock!"

"Who?"

A familiar woman spoke in the room.

After a while, the door opened, and a woman with an apron around her waist and a shovel in her hand stood in the doorway.

This is Jiang Ling's adoptive mother, He Xiuqun.

The two looked at each other, and for a long time, their eyes were red at the same time.

"Mom!"

Jiang Ling hugged He Xiuqun, as if he had found support after being bullied when he was a child.

"You...... Are you Xiaoling? ”

He Xiuqun raised her head to look at Jiang Ling, and couldn't help but stretch out her somewhat rough hand to touch Jiang Ling's face.

It's not that she doesn't know Jiang Ling, but she can't believe that Jiang Ling will suddenly appear in front of her eyes like a dream.

"Xiuqun, who's coming? Is it Xiao Ling? ”

At this time, a voice in the room asked eagerly.

He Xiuqun hurriedly pulled Jiang Ling into the house and closed the door.

Jiang Ling saw that his adoptive father Hu Donghai was slowly walking out holding on to the door frame, one hand still scratching eagerly in the air.

Looking at Hu Donghai's godless eyes, Jiang Ling seemed to realize something.

"Dad!"

Jiang Ling walked over with a trembling voice and helped Hu Donghai.

"Xiao Ling, is it Xiao Ling? Where have you been all these years? I thought...... I thought I'd never see you again in my life. ”

Hu Donghai grabbed Jiang Ling's hand tightly, as if as soon as he let go, Jiang Ling would fly away.

"Dad, the child is not filial, the child is late to come back!"

Jiang Ling knelt directly in front of Hu Donghai and shed tears.

"Hurry up, hurry up, it's good to be back."

Hu Donghai bent down in distress and helped Jiang Ling up, in his eyes, Jiang Ling was always a good boy who was well-behaved and sensible and would take care of his younger brother.

After five years of absence, there was no news, Hu Donghai, like most people, thought that Jiang Ling was dead.

But now, knowing that his child is back, he is happier than anyone else.

"Xiuqun, hurry up and go downstairs to buy a few bottles of beer, I want to have a few drinks with Xiaoling."

Hu Donghai was in a good mood, and hurriedly beckoned He Xiuqun to buy wine.

Jiang Ling put Hu Donghai on the sofa and stood up.

"Mom, I'd better go."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Ling gently hooked He Xiuqun's arm, walked to the side and asked in a low voice.

"Mom, what's going on with Dad's eyes?"

He Xiuqun looked at Hu Donghai, who was still smirking on the sofa, and said with a sigh.

"When I left, I cried for a day and a night, and then it became like this, and I couldn't go to many hospitals."

After He Xiuqun finished speaking, he took out a handful of crumpled money from his bag and stuffed it into Jiang Ling's hand.

"Hurry up, the old supermarket outside the community is still there, go buy a case of beer and come back, by the way, there is a braised meat stall next to it, you can buy whatever you like."

When his son came back, He Xiuqun was naturally happy, where could he take care of his usual frugality.

After Hu Donghai became what he is now, all the expenses of the family fell on Hu Xiuqun.

She is a woman's family, and she has no education, and there is a sick person in the family who needs to be taken care of.

I can't find a formal job, and I help the people in need around me on weekdays to do some cleaning or something.

Saving money will not make two people starve to death.

"Don't need Mom, I have money."

Jiang Ling originally wanted to return the money in his hand to He Xiuqun, but was stopped by He Xiuqun.

"If you want to take it, you will take it, and Mom won't listen to it?"

Jiang Ling had no choice but to smile and nodded, looked back at Hu Donghai again, opened the door and went downstairs.

"Nightingale, help me find the best ophthalmologist in the world."

After going downstairs, Jiang Ling dialed the nightingale as soon as possible.

"Yes, my subordinates understand!"

On the other end of the phone, Nightingale replied succinctly.

Jiang Ling knew that the top priority now was to cure Hu Donghai's eyes first.

Back home, although it was just an ordinary meal, it couldn't be more ordinary, and it couldn't be more ordinary.

But this is the first time Jiang Ling has eaten out of home in five years.

"Xiao Ling, you're twenty-five this year, right?"

Hu Donghai took a sip of wine and asked.

"Well, twenty-five."

Jiang Ling replied seriously.

"The eldest is not small, it's time to get married. Do you remember the swallows? ”

The swallow that Hu Donghai suddenly mentioned, Jiang Ling naturally remembered.

It was the next door neighbor's child, named Liu Yan.

When she was a child, she always liked to tie this long ponytail, and her big watery eyes were really moving.

At that time, I didn't know how many people outside liked to bully her, and every time she would find the Jiang Ling brothers to support her as soon as possible.

"yes, yes."

Jiang Ling nodded and said.

"This child is good, she looks smart, I'll go back and tell her dad about your marriage."

Hu Donghai is thinking about all he is thinking about at this time, hugging his grandson as soon as possible.

"That's all Xiao Ling's childhood, I can't take it seriously."

He Xiuqun picked up the dish and put it in Hu Donghai's mouth to remind him that it was not what it used to be.

In the past, when Jiang Ling and Jiang Ping were young, Lao Liu next door did say that if these two children chose one of them to be his son-in-law, he would wake up with a smile in his dreams.

But after all, it was a joke more than ten years ago, and now where can I do it.

In addition, Hu Donghai worked in the Railway Bureau at that time, and he was a good match with others, but now?

Everyone knows the current situation of their family, and Liu Yan is the only daughter in the family, how can she look down on a family like theirs.

"Why can't you take it seriously? Are we a little Ling? ”

Hu Donghai was unhappy when he slapped the table, in his heart, Jiang Ling has been a responsible and responsible child since he was a child.

If anyone can marry him, it will be a blessing that she has cultivated for several lifetimes.

……

Two days later, Jiang Ling originally thought that Hu Donghai was just talking nonsense after drinking, but who knew that he really found the next-door neighbor that afternoon and told him about it.

As soon as he heard that Jiang Ling was a retired soldier, Liu Pinggui was also very satisfied, and made an appointment to have a meal together at their house today.

"Xiao Ling, Uncle Liu has watched you grow up, but our swallows have been used to me since they were young, so you have to take care of them a little more in the future. She works on the seashore and will be back in a moment. ”

Liu Pinggui poured Jiang Ling a cup of tea and said with a smile.

"Uncle Liu, where is it, Yanzi has always been my sister, and there is nothing to talk about."

Jiang Ling said very politely.

Jiang Ling felt that, as Hu Donghai said, now he is not too young, and he has reached the age of marriage.

Liu Yan and he are also childhood sweethearts, if the other party does not dislike it, it is a good choice.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back!"

A few people were chatting when the door was opened with a key.

A gorgeously dressed, beautiful-looking, and fashionably dressed woman pushed the door open and walked in.

This person is Liu Yan.

Liu Yan's appearance surprised Jiang Ling, it was really a female college eighteen changes, and the snot girls in the past have now become beautiful big girls.

"Hello, uncle, aunt."

At this moment, a man poked his head out from behind Liu Yan.

Everyone frowned, not knowing why.

"Dad, Mom, let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend, Zheng Shaojun."

Liu Yan generously took Zheng Shaojun's hand and introduced.

"Uncle, aunt, I don't know what to buy when we meet for the first time, this is the best bird's nest and ejiao, I hope you can like it."

Zheng Shaojun put the beautifully wrapped gift in his hand on the coffee table.

and Jiang Ling The fruits they brought must have made a judgment.

"Lao Liu, what's going on?"

Although he couldn't see with his eyes, Hu Donghai could hear that Liu Yan had brought a man back, and he was still her boyfriend.

"This ......"

Liu Pinggui was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to explain it.

"Swallow, long time no see!"

Jiang Ling stood up and said to Liu Yan with a smile.

Liu Yan glanced at Jiang Ling, and subconsciously leaned on Zheng Shaojun's body and said.

"It turned out to be Jiang Ling, it's been a long time. I should have been discharged from the army, right? Does the troops help assign work? If you don't assign it, let Shaojun help introduce you to one, and it's no problem for you to be a security guard! ”
