Chapter 1, Memories of the Cold Lake Memories of the Cold Lake (8)
Mu Qingqing's home is in a house next to Yun Chenming's house, and he also lives on the second floor, the difference is that Yun Chenming is a "third generation" ordinary worker family, and Mu Qingqing's family is a leading family in the oil field, and his grandparents have held different leadership positions in the oil field bureau.
Mu Qingqing called home and said that his friends were coming to dinner.
Yun Chenming insisted on buying some fruit before he came to the door, but Mu Qingqing couldn't resist him, so he went to the fruit store with him to pick up some fruits that his parents loved to eat.
The two looked at each other and smiled, walked up the stairs that they had walked thousands of times, and the memories of their childhood came to their hearts, and the laughter of their friends seemed to be heard in the corridor. Mother Mu opened the door with a smile on her face to welcome them in, and said, "Five years have passed, and the children have grown so big." ”
In the eyes of parents, children will never grow up. Dad Mu sat on the sofa reading the newspaper, and when he saw his baby daughter coming to eat with his friends, he happily beckoned them to come and sit down.
Yun Chenming respectfully shouted Hello, uncle!
Father Mu raised his glasses and looked at Yun Chenming carefully and said, "Yun Lang's son has grown so big, this time is really not waiting for anyone, we are all old." ”
"Uncle and aunt are still very young."
Hearing this, Mu Dad and Mu laughed happily again.
They chatted for a while, and the shepherd mother also cooked a table of dishes and beckoned them to sit down and eat.
Mu Ma put a few pieces of braised beef into Yun Chenming's bowl and said, "Chenming, eat more, you are a little thin." ”
Mu Dad also asked with concern: "Are you not used to working and living in the south?" ”
"It's okay, the pace of work in southern cities is fast, and it's casual to eat alone, and the braised beef cooked by my aunt is really delicious."
"Try this hand-grabbed lamb again."
"It's delicious!"
"Mom, why did you just pick up vegetables for Brother Chenming, you forgot about your daughter." Mu Qingqing said coquettishly.
"Come on, Daddy will clip you a big piece of beef."
"The eldest is not small, and he is still like a little girl."
The shepherd's mother glanced at her daughter and said, "Look at the lotus flowers of the family next door are all married, and the eldest is not in a hurry." ”
"Mom, if you say that again, I'm leaving."
Mu Qingqing's cheeks were crimson and embarrassed, and then he secretly glanced at Yun Chenming, fortunately, this kid only lowered his head and ate vegetables, and didn't pay attention to himself.
"Chenming, has your girlfriend talked about it?"
The shepherd's mother saw that she couldn't please her daughter, so she shifted her position. "I can't support myself, how dare I find a girlfriend." Yun Chenming's face also reddened slightly.
"It's not easy for young people now, housing prices in big cities are up to the sky, and it's stressful to talk to friends and get married." Mu Ma said to Mu Dad.
Mu Dad nodded and said: "Yes, unlike when we used to talk about the introduction of friends and organizations, the house unit is allocated, there is no such trouble, as long as you do a good job in production." ”
Mu Ma glanced at Mu Dad and said, "If you are a worthless person like you, if you are not taken care of by the organizational unit, it is estimated that you will not be able to get a wife." ”
Mu Dad smirked and said, "Communism is good, communism is good!" ”
At the dinner table, the shepherd mother asked the two of them about their work again, and told them to be well fed and clothed outside.
The meal was eaten in a warm atmosphere for three hours before it ended.
Yun Chenming wanted to help Mu Ma wash the dishes, but Mu Ma pushed and refused to let herd. Mu Qingqing pulled him to his room to whisper a few words.
When he was a child, Yun Chenming also came to Mu Qingqing's boudoir to play, but he didn't enter it when he grew up. Mu Qingqing's room is very tidy, with a single bed and a desk next to it, a few posters of idols on the wall, and some awards. The desk shelf is full of books, and there is a photo frame on the table in addition to the pen holder, which is a group photo of several of their friends who graduated from junior high school on the edge of the cold lake, Mu Qingqing stands in the middle of the four big boys, blue sky and white clouds, water and sky, their immature faces are filled with carefree smiles. Youth has passed in a hurry, and more than ten years have passed since this group photo was taken.
Mu Qingqing patted the edge of the bed and let Yun Chenming sit casually, Yun Chenming saw that this room was very small, and there was no other place to sit, so he did not shy away from sitting down on the edge of the bed.
Mu Qingqing's cheeks were slightly red and said, "You are the first of the four boys to enter my room. ”
A strange feeling floated in Yun Chenming's heart, as if something was disturbing him in his heart.
The two were silent for a moment. Mu Qingqing broke the embarrassment and said, "What you are carrying on your chest, bulging, let me see." ”
Yun Chenming touched his chest and then remembered the jade pendant he brought the night before yesterday for fun.
He took out the jade pendant and showed it to Mu Qingqing.
Mu Qingqing's eyes lit up, and she stretched out her hand and said, "Give it to me." ”
Yun Chenming grabbed the jade pendant without thinking and wanted to take it down to Mu Qingqing, but the moment he held the jade pendant, there was a feeling of reluctance in his heart.
He hesitated with his hand on the jade pendant.
Mu Qingqing saw that he was reluctant to hold the jade pendant, and said with a cold face: "Reluctant, right?" ”
"No, this..."
Yun Chenming wanted to explain the origin of this jade pendant, but he didn't know how to talk about it.
At this time, the shepherd mother pushed the door in, took two glasses of milk, and said, "Come, taste the taste of this fresh milk, which you can't drink in the city." ”
Mu Qingqing glared at Yun Chenming angrily, Yun Chenming suddenly felt lost, so he got up and said, "It's not early, I'll go back first." ”
He said hello to Mu Dad and Mu Ma, but Mu Qingqing ignored him and let him go. Mu Ma whispered to Mu Dad: "Is this pair quarreling?" Dad Mu picked up the newspaper again and read it with relish.
