Chapter 10: Family
Classical mahogany decoration, a row of red lanterns on each side of the corridor after entering the door, although there are no candles inside, because of the dark tone, the glow emitted can be comparable to a real candle.
To the right of the door is a long mahogany counter, and on the wine rack behind the counter, there are different kinds of wine bottles in various colors.
The porcelain vase comes in five different colors and shapes, representing five different types of wine. Despite their different tastes, they all have one thing in common, and they are all produced locally in Windchime Town.
A woman with her hair in a bun, pinned to two jade hairpins, and holding a small seal with something written on it, heard the footsteps and subconsciously said, "Hello, welcome." ”
"Lin Niang, I'm back."
The woman who looked like she was about forty years old, looked at the young man holding the little Lori, was slightly stunned, and then showed a heartfelt smile, "Yo, the good son is back?" ”
Tang Destiny smiled and nodded.
Little Lori called Aunt Lin crisply, which made the smile on the woman's face a little deeper, and she nodded her head again and again.
When he saw Ye Wen with a shocked face behind Tang Fate, he was stunned for more than ten seconds before he asked suspiciously, "Who is this?" “
Tang Destiny said happily: "The friends I met in the car have been fascinated by the Speech Inn for a long time, but I have never booked a room, and I have always had some regrets, so I will take it to try my luck." ”
Tang Fate winked at the woman, "Am I a businessman?" Lin Niang, you have to send me a commission. ”
Lin Yuan didn't have the good chance to glance at this cheap son, opened the drawer, and took out a black and red wooden card from the few remaining brands.
The wooden plaque is not delicate, half the size of a palm, tied with a red spike, and a key tied to the end of the red spike. One side is engraved with plum blossoms, and one side is engraved with the word "plum" in the middle, "Take it, want to take the commission to greet the guests yourself." ”
Tang Destiny smiled and took the wooden card, "Then we'll talk, I'll take her over first." ”
With the little meat orange who wanted to stop talking and looked around curiously, walked through the five-meter corridor and walked to the corridor on the right.
I walked around the five small courtyards that stretched out, greeted seven or eight girls dressed as maids, and finally stopped in front of a room with a closed door.
By the time Tang Destiny led Little Lori to the counter again, it was basically dark outside. The woman who had been waiting for a long time handed over a flashlight and explained, "I won't keep you today, come and eat tomorrow night." ”
Tang Destiny smiled and nodded in agreement.
The woman seemed to have been thinking for a long time, and finally asked, "Is it better?" ”
opened his mouth and closed it, but the words of deception still didn't come out, "It's not good, it's not bad." ”
The woman's eyes were slightly red, and she said apologetically, "Good boy, I have suffered you." ”
Tang Zhiyuan reached out and stroked the red rope bracelet on his left hand, nodded, and shook his head again.
Li Yuqiang tightened his master's hand and said nothing. Her eyes were already misty, and it was the first time she had seen such a sad master.
When Tang Destiny left, the woman sat back in the chair, took off the red rope hanging around her neck, took off the key, opened a cabinet at the bottom, took out a mahogany sign with the word "Yan" written on it, and carefully rubbed it.
The woman, who had always been more resolute, began to blur her eyes, and tears fell uncontrollably, smashing on the counter and the floor.
A few minutes later, a girl in a school uniform rushed out of the courtyard in a rage, with unwiped grease stains on the corners of her mouth. Nine times out of ten, it was a girl who threw down her rice bowl and ran in a hurry in the middle of eating, and shouted from afar: "Mom, Mom, where is my future husband?" ”
The woman hurriedly reached out to wipe away her tears, put the hand holding the wooden card into her wide sleeve, and said sharply: "Lin Yu! Don't babble all the time, and he's your brother-in-law, let people hear, do you want our family's face? ”
The girl turned a deaf ear to her mother's scolding, walked up to her, stared at her eyes for a few seconds as if she understood something, took a few steps forward and reached out to raise her hidden right hand, snatched the wooden card, gritted her teeth and said, "I don't have a perverted sister." This broken brand will be put here for me in the future, so that you will not be harmed by her again. ”
The girl's movements were a little rough, the woman seemed to have nothing to think that her daughter would suddenly reach out to grab it, and when the wooden card was snatched away, she came to her senses, reached out and grabbed her daughter's sleeve, and said with a frosty face: "This is the first and last time." ”
The woman's attitude made the girl's eyes red, and the grievances on her face were quickly replaced by anger.
Probably didn't think that although she was usually neither big nor small, but her little daughter, who was afraid of herself, would suddenly resist, and when she was caught off guard, the woman was carried to the ground.
The mother's cry of pain made the girl who had walked a few steps pause. In the end, it was his mother, seeing the way she fell, she panicked and hurriedly ran back to help.
The woman pushed her away with a direct wave of one hand, and the girl was also pushed to the ground.
The woman said in an indifferent tone: "Lin Yu! See what you look like? I'm your mother, how can you do such a thing? Would your sister do such a thing? ”
This sentence completely angered the girl, she threw the wooden card out heavily, and roared with tears in her eyes: "Yes, yes, what is my Lin Yu?" It's just a troublemaker who makes trouble for you all day long, and there is no comparison with your perverted, but very good eldest daughter. ”
The woman walked over and slapped her in the face, "You conscienceless thing, she's your sister!" You know how good she is to you? How do you repay her? One bite at a time, how can I, Lin Yuan, have a daughter like you? ”
Lin Yu said sharply: "Did I say something wrong? How many things have I done to please you? But what about you? Except for Lin Yan's bitch, which eye have you looked at me? ”
The raised hand trembled in the air, but it never fell, and the heartbroken girl did not let her look at her at all.
"Go back to the room, you are not allowed to step out of the room without my orders."
"What a big official, it's the twenty-first century, not the ancient times when a lady like you did whatever she wanted. I am Lin Yan, and I am not the subordinate who comes when you call and goes when you linger......" Then she said aggrievedly: "You are my mother, why are you only so strict with me?" Am I so dislikable to you? ”
A hand was gently placed on Lin Yu's shoulder, "Xiaoyu, you go back to the room first, I will educate you eccentric and ignorant mother." ”
Lin Yan turned around, pursed his lips, and said aggrievedly: "Dad! You're going to be killed! ”
The smile on Lin Zihai's face froze directly on his face. What do you mean? Look down on your dad?
After Lin Yan left, Lin Zihai walked over and was about to take her hand, but was thrown away by the woman.
Lin Zihai was furious, and he didn't know what to do. He stepped forward and put his arms around her, slamming his forehead on her forehead.
The woman, who was stunned for a few seconds, came back to her senses and said coldly: "Yanyan's brand was thrown by her, and it may have been damaged." ”
The man's body trembled, and he suddenly felt his scalp tingle.
"She just pushed me down."
The man's legs began to tremble.
"She also said that I was an unreasonable lady and that I was an eccentric mother."
The man probably knew that there was a knife both horizontally and vertically, and that little courage was actually raised, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said angrily: "Isn't it? I'm your husband, who do you show with a cold face? Now, immediately, immediately give Ye a smile. ”
The corners of Lin Yuan's mouth curved slightly, and he sneered.
The man's upright body immediately fell down, supported his wife very doggedly, and sat back on the Taishi chair, "That's right, what do women do so strongly?" An obedient woman is the best, and she knows no. ”
Looking at the man who went to pick up the mahogany brand, Lin Yuan's grievances and anger finally alleviated a lot.
Fortunately, it's dinner time, the guests and clerks are in the backyard yard, and a few clerks who heard the sound were also persuaded by the man to wave their hands to leave, so not too many people know about this family farce.
…………
Walk through the long old streets, and then the real wind chime town.
The houses are scattered, basically Hui style buildings, white walls and black tiles, not so magnificent atmosphere, but there are small bridges and flowing water as elegant.
Along the lights of Wanjia, Tang Destiny had not yet approached, and a woman's voice had already come from afar, "Fate, fate." ”
Tang Destiny quickened his pace and soon stood in front of the door.
The woman in the cheongsam looked her eyes up and down with reddish eyes before she took him into her arms.
"Mom." Tang Destiny screamed softly.
"Well, it's good to come back, it's good to come back." The woman's tone was already a little whimpering.
"Mom, what about me?" Li Yu, who had been ignored for a long time, stretched out a fleshy little finger and asked himself.
The woman, who was still a little sad, immediately burst into tears and laughed, picked up the cute little Lori, and kissed her on the face a few times, "How can my godmother forget my cute little carp?" ”
Little Lori reached out and held the woman's cheek, returned a dozen mouthfuls, and giggled in the woman's laughter and scolding.
Looking at the mother in front of him, Tang Destiny no longer had much warmth in his heart, and finally felt a trace of warmth and comfort. This proves that his efforts over the years have not been for nothing.
The dishes are very rich, eight dishes and one soup, chicken, duck, fish, crab, shrimp, abalone and ginseng.
Little Lori sat next to Tang Destiny and enjoyed the service of the master, which was not a lot of opportunities. Although the godmother's eyes are so many that they can fill a big bowl, it has no effect on the little Lori who has activated the automatic blocking function, and she still orders the dishes in her own way, and lets the master help deal with it, she is only responsible for eating.
Opposite Tang Destiny is his mother. On the right hand side is a middle-aged man with a stable temperament who is not handsome, but attractive. He wears a pair of black glasses and is Tang's fateful stepfather. was also his homeroom teacher back then, as the culprit who sent his mother out with his own hands, although he was unhappy, he had to accept this reality.
On the left hand side is a handsome young brother, half-brother, and the relationship between the two is quite close. It may be that I grew up listening to my brother's legend, and there will be less closeness, and worship and longing account for the majority.
Probably knowing the purpose of Tang's fate, the atmosphere was not warm, and there was some silence.
After eating, I taught little Lori some carving skills and carried her home.
Back home, greeted family, bathed, went to bed.
Because the phone had been turned off, Tang Fate didn't do much, just put the red rope bracelet on his chest and soon fell asleep.
