Chapter 158: Deep Fatherly Love
The third uncle's family stayed for three days and returned on the afternoon of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.
"Third brother, take your sister-in-law to my side when you're free," before leaving, the third uncle took Yan's father's hand and said.
"Alas, yes" Yan Dad also shook the third uncle's hand back, a little choked.
"This farewell is a year, I often think about the days when we were children recently, a group of our friends, a few have gone!" The third uncle's voice also became unnatural.
"Isn't it, people, it's inevitable to take that step, sooner or later. Let's get in the car, have a good trip" Father Yan pushed the third uncle into the car. He turned around and rubbed his eyes with the back of his somewhat dry hand.
"Qingqing, when is the date set, call the third uncle, the third uncle will definitely come back" After the third uncle got into the car, he rolled down the window and said a word to Yan Muqing.
"Don't worry, I will definitely inform you, and when the time comes, you will bring the third aunt and Sister Feifei to come" Yan Muqing waved her hand towards the car.
"Alas, good," the third uncle, the third aunt, and Sister Fei Fei all responded.
"Let's go, it's not too early, you have to delay for a night on the road, stay nearby when it's dark, don't drive at night" Yan Dad said uneasily.
Then, the car started slowly, Yan Muqing's family was still standing at the door, and the car in the distance became smaller and smaller, leaving only a thick smoke, which slowly faded and finally disappeared.
"Let's go back" Yan's mother looked at Yan's father, who was still looking into the distance, and said, "Go back."
The family of four turned around and went back.
Because the third uncle came back, Father Yan made an exception in the past three days, drank several meals, and just sent them away, which made him a little uncomfortable at this time.
Now I was lying on the bed, covered with a big quilt and asleep. There are both physical and mental reasons.
"If you don't let you drink, you have to drink, and if you don't feel good, you have to suffer it yourself," Yan's mother came out of the bedroom and muttered.
"Don't talk about this at this time, the third uncle's family can't come back twice a year, and my dad has been close to the third uncle since he was a child, and it is inevitable that he will be uncomfortable. Let's take a look in a while, if it really doesn't work, let's infuse it," Yan Muqing wiped the ground and said.
"I'm so old, I don't know how many pounds and taels I have. But also, at that time, your second grandmother's family conditions were good, and your third uncle often secretly took white-flour steamed buns for your father to eat, and the white-flour steamed buns at that time were more expensive than the current golden characters, so your father kept talking about it" Yan's mother sat on the sofa and recalled the past.
"It's all over, and the days will get better and better in the future" Yan Muqing was also a little melancholy for a while.
She hadn't experienced the hardships of that era, but she had heard her parents mention it to some extent, and it was no surprise that someone starved to death at that time. Eating a stick noodle is considered a New Year.
Yan Muqing spent a few days at home doing nothing, eating and drinking all day long, meeting friends, and having a very comfortable holiday. I didn't see Song Meizhi's family on annual leave, and said that I went to the city where Yan Qiusheng worked for the New Year, which made Yan Muqing's heart feel more comfortable, no one likes to go out and see a person who makes people sick and doesn't know it.
On the afternoon of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Yan Muqing packed up and was going back to the imperial capital.
"That meat, when you go back, put it in the freezer of the refrigerator, the weather is getting warmer and warmer, don't spoil it anymore" Yan's mother said and put the two cabbages in her hand into the trunk of the car.
"My mother, don't let it go, I have to eat until the Year of the Monkey" Yan Muqing looked at the trunk full of food and vegetables, a little worried.
"You take a little bit, after fifteen Aiqing is gone, there is only your grandfather and grandfather left at home, me and your father, we can't eat much, and it's bad to put it away, you can send some of that ball to your master and mother, and that sausage" Yan's mother was afraid that Yan Muqing would unload something from it, so she quickly closed the trunk after speaking.
"I know, my master has long been worried about your fried meatballs, I went back to the head, and specially asked me to bring him balls" Yan Muqing thought of his teacher, and felt a little funny, when he went to school, he felt that the head teacher was very strict, not smiling, who would think, retirement, it was like a different person, the appetite was very strong, their part, which restaurant made delicious dishes, what is the signature dish, he is clear.
"Then you tell him, next time I come back, I'll fry some more, it's enough" Yan's mother was very happy when she saw that some people liked the food she made so much.
"Okay, I have to go, otherwise I don't know what time it will be when I get stuck in traffic" Yan Muqing got into the car as he spoke.
I made a U-turn from my uncle's house next door, and the family was still watching from the door, and rolled down the window again.
"Hurry back, it's still cold this day, my grandma and grandpa haven't been sick all winter, and because of sending me, I will become a sinner" Yan Muqing looked at the family at the door, and her heart was a little blocked.
Every time I leave home, I will be in this mood, I can't put it into words, I feel a little panicked and reluctant......
"Let's go, let's go, drive slowly, it's time to call back," Grandma puffed out her lips without dentures and said slowly. His cloudy eyes were already wet.
"I know, maybe there's nothing wrong with the company, I'll stay for two days and come back," Yan Muqing hurriedly comforted.
Father Yan stood downhill, looking at the vehicles passing in the north-south direction, and when he saw that there was no car, he waved at Yan Muqing.
Seeing this, Yan Muqing said hello to her grandfather, mother and Yan Aiqing again, and started the car.
Smoothly turned onto the road, stepped on the brakes, looked at my father, and felt just now in my heart.
It was like a mouthful of water in my throat, and I couldn't go up or down. After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and said "Dad", his voice was a little unnatural, he coughed, cleared his throat, and continued, "Stop drinking, my mother, and we are all worried about you"
After speaking, he straightened up a little awkwardly and pretended to hold on to the seat belt.
Hearing this, Father Yan was stunned for a moment, his back was obviously stiff, and he said, "Okay, pay attention to safety on the road"
"Well, let's go back, it's cold outside, I'm leaving" After speaking, he released the brake, tapped the accelerator, and the car slowly drove forward.
The hands holding the steering wheel trembled slightly, and the feeling of blockage in the heart became more and more intense, like thick ink that could not be dissolved, becoming clearer and clearer. I suddenly noticed that there was some itching on my cheeks, and I raised my hand to touch it, but I didn't know when, the rich emotion that could not be dissolved turned into tears and flowed out.
Looking up at the rearview mirror, my father's somewhat clumsy figure was still standing on the downhill slope of his house, just like when he was in school, every time he left home, but the strong figure from before had become no longer straight.
At this moment, Yan Muqing had an impulse, turned around and went back, and gave his father a big hug, no matter how bad he was at words, over the years, he didn't let himself starve and freeze, maybe we thought that we were indifferent or even looked at each other unpleasantly, but in fact, someone was secretly caring about you and watching you. This may be what people often call deep fatherly love!
Yan Muqing didn't turn around after all, and of course she didn't give her father the big hug she imagined, she knew that she couldn't go back. Compared with the love of her children, she wants to give her family a stable and smooth life.
At this time, there are not many cars on the road and few pedestrians, and it is estimated that they are all enjoying the last moment of reunion with their families. In less than twenty minutes, Yan Muqing drove the car to the highway.
Before four o'clock, the car was parked in the rented community.
It took another half an hour to run up and down before I carried a trunk full of things upstairs.
After resting for a while, Yan Muqing looked at the company's group, there were already people chatting.
【Blind date and love each other's family】
[I'm already in place, see you tomorrow!] —Li Yan
[I just arrived, and I am ten pounds fat during the festive season] [unicorn arm.jif] - Hao Scarlett
[Comrades, lose weight] - Brother Peng
......
Yan Muqing climbed the stairs to read the information of his colleagues, some nagged about his long meat, some said he was tired, and more talked about his experience of being urged to marry.
I don't know how the seven aunts and eight aunts in the country are unified.
[I'll come too, see you tomorrow] - Yan Muqing
After sending the message, Yan Muqing called home and reported safety to his family.
After hanging up the phone, Yan Muqing thought that at this time yesterday, she was lying with her grandmother, talking about things when she was a child, and she was chatting with her cousin about melon seeds at this time the day before yesterday......
The more I think about it, the more annoyed I become, the more I don't want to go to work, this is the so-called holiday syndrome!
Xu drove for more than an hour, was tired and panicked, and fell asleep while lying down.
I woke up again to be woken up by a ringing phone.
Yan Muqing shouted in a daze, "Mom, what are you eating?" After shouting, he instantly sobered up, and then smiled bitterly. has left home and returned to the imperial capital.
There are thousands of lights outside the window, but the home is still far away.
The mobile phone was still ringing, and when he came back to his senses, he picked up the phone and saw that it was Lu Anming.
"Hey" was a thick nasal voice, obviously just woke up.
"Sleeping?" Lu Anming's deep and gentle voice came from the microphone.
He came back to work in the third year of junior high school, I don't know if men and women feel the same, do they also have nostalgia for home? He hasn't been at home for a few days, so he must be even more panicked than her, right?
"Well, you're off work?" Yan Muqing thought about it, and her voice unconsciously became much softer. Squinted at the cerebellar table on the bedside table, it was almost half past six.
"Yes, I just arrived at the apartment, and I've been busy for the past two days," Lu Anming complained on the other end of the phone.
"Have you eaten?" She sat up, took a glass of cold water from the water dispenser, and drank it all in one go, a chill reflected from her stomach, which made her sober up a lot.
"No, are you tired?"
"Hmm, it's okay, I've slept a lot, I'm much better, do you want to come over and have dinner together?" Yan Muqing invited.
"After a while, I'll ask the leader if there's anything else going on for a while, I've been calling me late for the past two days to ask for something, I'll hang up first, and I'll give it to you later" Lu Anming hung up the phone after speaking.
Yan Muqing threw the phone beside him, sat there again and began to start.
In less than five minutes, Lu Anming's phone called.
"It's okay, I'll look for you in a while, do you have anything you want to eat, I'll bring it to you" Lu Anming's "sparse" sound sounded, probably wearing a down jacket.
"No need, my mother took a lot of food, and you can eat it when it heats it up for a while" I went back for a few days, and I still didn't have enough food at home.
