(280) Visiting relatives abroad
With the help of the eldest daughter and eldest son-in-law, the visa procedures for the second elder of the Yao family to go to Japan were finally completed smoothly, and after the approved visa came, Jingshu immediately helped her parents buy a ticket to Nagoya, Japan. Before her sister bought a plane ticket, Jingrou deliberately discussed with her sister in order to let her parents stay in Japan for a few more days, and only bought a one-way ticket for her parents when they came.
On a Sunday in mid-April, two weeks before Jingrou's due date, Jingshu and Ming Ming got up early in the morning and took a taxi to take their parents to the airport in the provincial capital.
Because the second elder of the Yao family has never been out of such a far door so far, and he has not even taken a plane once, let alone going abroad. Since the youngest daughter decided to let the old couple come to Japan to take care of her confinement, the second elder of the Yao family has felt nervous in her heart, and to be honest, she is really a little scared and doesn't want to go! But for the sake of the youngest daughter and a few granddaughters, the old couple had to go, so since they went to apply for passports, they felt a lot of invisible pressure on them. And as the visa procedures are completed one after another, the time to go to Japan is getting closer and closer, and the nervousness and pressure of the two elders of the Yao family are becoming bigger and bigger.
After getting into a taxi with his eldest daughter and grandson this morning, the second elder of the Yao family sat in the car so nervous that he could hardly say a word, and he couldn't close his eyes or sleep at all. It wasn't until the four of them arrived at the airport, Jing Shu also helped the old couple check in their luggage, completed the check-in procedures, and only after boarding the plane, the tension of the two elders of the Yao family was finally relieved, and their faces finally showed a happy smile of excitement.
When Jing Shu and Ming Ming stood outside the entrance of the boarding gate, smiling and watching their parents walk into the boarding gate, until their figures disappeared, I don't know why, Jing Shu suddenly had a strange feeling for some reason, as if she had been abandoned.
It feels like Mom and Dad will live with their sister and family on the warm Sunshine Coast from now on, while themselves and their son will live in the cold Arctic, enduring eternal cold and loneliness. Maybe it's because she can't cross the vast ocean to a different country at any time, maybe she's never really been as far away from her parents and sister as she is now, or maybe Jingshu can't mentally accept that she has to live independently!
Just when Jing Shu was standing in place in a daze with a dull look, her mobile phone rang suddenly, and seeing that her mother didn't respond at all and didn't answer the phone, Xiao Mingming next to her reached out and tugged at the corner of her mother's clothes and said, "Mom, answer the phone!" ”
Jing Shu was suddenly dragged by her son, and then she came back to her senses suddenly, she didn't even look at it, she hurriedly connected the phone and said, "Hey! ”
Zhao Xincheng's always gentle voice immediately came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, Jingshu! How's it going, Mom and Dad, did they get on the plane? ”
Hearing her husband's gentle voice, Jingshu's frustration just now eased suddenly, and she immediately replied with a smile: "Well, Mom and Dad just entered the boarding gate!" ”
Zhao Xincheng smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I'm really sorry, if I wasn't out of town now, I would definitely accompany you to see off my parents, my parents weren't unhappy, right?" ”
Jing Shu hurriedly comforted her husband and said, "Of course not, how can your parents blame you, you are working in the field, and they don't know!" ”
Zhao Xincheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said happily: "That's good, all the work on my side will be completed this weekend, and we can stay together for a few more days!" ”
As soon as she heard this, Jingshu's mood completely improved, and she also said very happily: "Really? That's great! I'm going to go back with Mingming, you can work with peace of mind, Mingming and I will wait for you at home, tell me in advance what you want to eat when the time comes! ”
Zhao Xincheng couldn't help laughing happily and said, "Okay, when the time comes, I will also show you two a hand, so that you can also taste my craftsmanship!" Alright, I'm going to get busy, you two need to be safe, too! ”
"yes, got it!"
Hanging up Zhao Xincheng's phone, Jing Shu couldn't help but laugh at herself in her heart: I'm just asking for trouble, my parents just went to live with my sister for a few days, and it's not that they won't come back. Maybe this is the first time my parents have traveled far away, it seems that I am really a child who has not grown up, obviously I am so old, but I am still so dependent on my parents!
Jing Shu and Ming Ming took the taxi when they came, and soon returned to their home in the county seat, and the second elder of the Yao family also took a plane at this moment and landed safely at Chubu Centrair International Airport in Nagoya.
Before coming to Japan, Jingrou repeatedly told her parents: when you get off the plane, you must follow the flow of people, so that even if you don't know the way, you will follow everyone to the customs exit. Japan is full of kanji, and although the forms to be filled out are in Japanese, most of them are in kanji plus English. So don't worry too much about the language barrier, and the customs also has a special translator who can Chinese to help, so even if you can't understand, don't worry too much, they will help everyone.
There is no mobile phone to contact, and all of a sudden they have arrived in a completely unfamiliar country, and the second elder of the Yao family has completely followed what his little daughter told them since he got off the plane, and he was so nervous that he didn't even dare to miss any details. But what the second elder of the Yao family didn't expect was that although they came to the customs exit with the flow of people, they were too nervous to line up in the wrong line, and they actually mixed with the passengers on another plane. The old couple didn't know what was wrong, but the time they had to wait suddenly became very long, which made them, who were already full of nervousness, become anxious again. It's just that there is no other way to think of other than waiting patiently, so the two elders of the Yao family can only comfort each other and insist on waiting.
At this time, because Jingrou's body can no longer go out, and she still has to take care of Xiao Jiayi at home, Yamaguchi took Xinxin and the two people to the airport to pick up the second elder of the Yao family, and today can only let Xinxin replace her mother to act as a translator.
Although Yamaguchi and Xinxin came to the airport early, they only knew on the big screen at the airport that the plane taken by the second elder of the Yao family had arrived at the station in advance, so the two of them immediately stood at the exit and waited.
But waiting left and right, seeing that the passengers came out one by one, but there was no sign of the second elder of the Yao family, Yamaguchi immediately made a phone call to Jingrou anxiously and said: "Rou, Mom and Dad are so slow, I see that the passengers have almost come out, Xinxin and I have been standing here and waiting for a long time, and I haven't seen the figure of my parents until now, will there be something wrong with them?" ”
Jingrou suddenly became nervous, but she still hurriedly comforted Yamaguchi and said. "No, as long as the plane lands normally, they will definitely arrive, you wait patiently, if you really can't ask the people at the airport to check!" ”
Yamaguchi thought about it and said with some concern: "Well, I know, we haven't left for a moment, we've been staring at the exit here!" Well, let's wait a little longer! ”
Jingrou was just about to say something more, when she heard Yamaguchi's suddenly excited voice: "Rou, Mom and Dad are out, I have already seen them!" I'll hang up first, and we'll get in touch later! ”
Hanging up the phone, Jing Rou let out a long breath, knowing that her parents had finally arrived safely, and her heart was finally no longer so nervous.
Jingrou happily hugged Xiao Jiayi beside her, kissed her little face and said, "Jiayi, grandma and grandpa have already gotten off the plane, and we will be able to see grandma and grandpa in a while!" ”
Xiao Jiayi immediately smiled and said, "Haha, I can play with grandma and grandpa!" ”
As soon as the second elder of the Yao family pushed the luggage cart and walked out of the exit nervously, he saw Yamaguchi and Xinxin standing there smiling and waiting for them, and the two of them finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally showed a happy smile.
"Hello! Hello! ”
Yamaguchi greeted his father-in-law and mother-in-law warmly, and immediately took the luggage cart into his hand.
"Grandpa, grandma! You've got it! ”
Xin Xin immediately happily held her grandfather's arm with one hand and her grandmother's arm with the other, her face full of excitement and happiness.
Shen Rumeng was a little excited and immediately kissed her eldest granddaughter and said, "Xinxin, grandma finally saw you!" It's not easy! ”
Yao Zhiwen also smiled a little excitedly and said, "Oh, it's really hard to go this way!" Xinxin, are you in a hurry? I've been queuing with your grandma for a long time, and I'm really in a hurry! ”
Xin Xin took the second elder of the Yao family to follow behind Yamaguchi, and as soon as she got into Yamaguchi's car, Yamaguchi handed over her mobile phone to Xin Xin and said, "Xin Xin, call your mother, let grandma and grandpa also say a few words to your mother!" ”
"Hmm!"
Xin Xin agreed, took the phone and dialed Jingrou: "Mom, my grandma and my grandfather have arrived, let's go back now, you can say a few words to my grandma!" Then she handed the phone to Shen Rumeng.
As soon as Shen Rumeng took the phone, she said excitedly: "Jingrou, we are in the car at the mountain pass, everything is going well, you don't have to worry!" ”
Jingrou laughed happily and said, "Haha, that's great! Mom, we'll see each other in a few hours! ”
Shen Rumeng said: "Well, change your father!" He handed the phone to his wife.
Yao Zhiwen also said excitedly as soon as he took the phone: "Jingrou, we have arrived!" In the morning, your sister and my mother and I were sent by Mingming, and it was very good all the way, but the queue was too long after arriving in Japan, but fortunately, I finally saw Yamaguchi and Xinxin! ”
Jingrou still laughed happily and said, "Haha, it's okay, it's good for you to arrive, someone invited us to eat roast beef in the evening, you and my mother can rest in the car!" ”
Yao Zhiwen said: "That's okay, then we'll see you later, I'll hang up first!" Then he handed the phone to Xinxin again, and Xinxin hung up the phone directly.
