Shi Wenhua's mother, Lu Qianying, saw Tang Boqiang, with a distressed expression on her face, and said, "It's hard to study, I haven't been back for more than a year, look at you like this." After that, he turned to Tang Boqiang's mother and said: "Sister Qing is going to make up for Ah Qiang, I heard that it is very hard to be a doctor, so take advantage of the rest at home now, make up for it, and use my place to say." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Ying. I'll do my best, and I'm not polite when I need help. "Tang Boqiang's mother is very happy to have such a good neighbor.

"By the way, I'll go back to work after dinner in a while, if I have time, I'll come back to pick you up from work, if you don't have time, you can take the car by yourself." Shi Culture did not forget to explain to Tang Boqiang.

After saying that, the two families parted ways and went back to their respective homes.

When Tang Boqiang returned home, he found that his parents, father and brother were at home. Mom has retired early, her position is replaced by her brother Tang Boru, she is now mainly at home to take care of housework, occasionally in the original unit to do some casual work to earn some money, Dad's unit was originally a public-private joint venture, under the impact of reform and opening up, has come to the verge of bankruptcy, now no matter whether to go to work or not, a month's salary will not exceed 5 yuan, but those who have retired can also receive a pension of 10 yuan per month, it is really sad and ridiculous. My brother is okay, after all, it is a state-owned company, and it guarantees income during drought and flood, although the income is not very high, but it is also considered to be at the upper middle level in Bajiao Town.

Brother Tang Boru's personality is the same as Tang Boqiang, he is a very introverted and unsociable person, but he has been very good to Tang Boqiang since he was a child, and he loves this little brother very much, and he will never forget to leave a copy for his younger brother if there is anything delicious and fun, so the relationship between the brothers has been very good since childhood. This time Tang Boqiang came back from graduation, of course Tang Boru was very happy, although he looked calm on the surface, but he has always worked hard and was able to take a day off to wait at home.

Mother Zhang Yuqing has prepared the ingredients and is waiting for Tang Boqiang to come home. As soon as he entered the house, Zhang Yuqing immediately began to be busy in the kitchen, only his father, brother and Tang Boqiang's father and son chatted in the outer hall, and his father and brother were very concerned about Tang Boqiang's future work. Isn't that every day to face a lot of crazy patients? You're not afraid? ”

Clearly, they mixed neurology and psychiatry. For people in such remote areas, it is really not clear what is neurology and what is psychiatry. Because they often refer to those crazy people as "neurotic" or "nervous", they take it for granted that neurology deals with these patients, much like when they first applied for volunteers, even teachers couldn't tell what forensic science was for.

When Tang Boqiang explained to them that neurology is mainly to diagnose and treat those diseases that damage the nervous system such as stroke, paralysis, muscle atrophy and weakness, numbness of hands and feet, dizziness, headache, etc., they realized that this "nerve" is not another "nerve".

The father and son were chatting happily, and the mother's voice floated out of the kitchen: "The meal is ready, let's eat, talk while eating." When they heard this, they hurried to the kitchen in the back room for dinner.

Tang Boqiang's mother's meals are well cooked and are well-known in the neighborhood. Even if it is an ordinary material, in her hands, she can change the pattern to make a variety of different styles of delicacies, sometimes the neighbors want to set up a small feast, will invite her to preside over the overall situation, she is also responsive, so the popularity is very good.

As soon as Tang Boqiang sat down, his eyes immediately lit up. Wow, the dinner table is full of his favorite dishes: steamed small crabs, winter melon cups, poached eggs, nail nails, sweet and sour tomatoes......

Seeing his gluttony, his mother couldn't help laughing: "Haha, I haven't eaten for a long time, this holiday is not long, just say what you like to eat, I'll try to do it." ”

Tang Boqiang was a little embarrassed when he heard his mother say this, and said with a smile: "When I go home, all dishes are delicious, and all dishes are very appetizing." ”

"Okay, let's all sit down, Daddy, don't you have a drink?" Mother asked Tang Mian with special concern. In the town of Octagon, there is a great deal of variation in the names of the members of each household. Some children even call their father "brother" and their mother "sister-in-law". In Tang Boqiang's house, his mother is used to following her children to call Tang Mian's father.

Tang Mian was very happy when he heard this, and said repeatedly: "If you want to, Qiangzi graduated and went home today, and you made so many good dishes, you must drink a little, and Boru should also come a little." Tang Boqiang knows that when his father drinks, most of them will call his brother together, this is a wine company, and with a wine company, it will be more atmospheric to drink.

There is no shortage of rice wine at home all year round. That's because many of the friends my father used to make have gone ashore to go back to the countryside to plough the fields, some of them often drink alcohol on the boat, and they plough the fields in the countryside and have abundant food, so they will naturally use some good rice to steam rice wine, and every now and then, they will never forget their father's share, and always keep what they think is the best, and bring it to their father when they arrive in Bajiao Town on a certain market day. These wines are indeed very good, as soon as the lid of the wine bottle is opened, the aroma of the wine quickly spreads in the kitchen space, my brother has always had a good amount of wine, but Tang Boqiang is the opposite, not a drop of wine.

Good wine, good food, good mood, the family eats together and enjoys a good time, Tang Boqiang has not enjoyed such a delicacy and atmosphere for more than a year.

They ate the meal very slowly. Dad and brother drank slowly, Tang Boqiang and Mom also ate slowly, chatting while drinking, they listened to Tang Boqiang talk about the university, listened to Tang Boqiang talk about Shi Culture picking him up to accompany him when he came back, and listened to Tang Boqiang talk about the hospital report and the reminder of Shi Culture after reporting and so on.

"Culture, this kid has grown up, he reminded him very right, you have to remember, be careful, you can't hurt people, you can't have the heart to prevent people!" Mom interjected as she listened.

"The culture is really good, righteous enough, and it is your partner and friend from childhood to adulthood, you have to cherish such a friend, only a friend will remind you like this." Tang Mian responded to this matter from another angle.

"Our two families have always had a good relationship, and I have a good relationship with my brother in culture, and since his brother made money in business, he has helped our family a lot." The elder brother, who has always been silent, also spoke.

Tang Boqiang once heard his father say that in the era when Tang Boqiang was not born, the situation of Shi Wenhua's family was not good, on the contrary, Tang Mian made friends at that time, and business was booming. When he saw that the family of Shi Wenhua's parents, who he had always admired and who were teachers in the same school, was having a hard time, Tang Mian did not hesitate to help, and their family always remembered the good of the Tang family. Time has changed, and when the Shi family is doing well today, they do not forget to help the Tang family, which is now getting worse. The relationship between the two families has always been very good, and the relationship between the children of the two families has always been very good. It really fulfills the old saying: distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.
