It's almost New Year's Day, and Yuer feels like he should go home.

On the way, I received a call from Sui Jinyu, and as soon as it was connected, Sui Jinyu's voice came over with a little excitement, "Yuer, where have you been?" "Why am I going back to Binyang?" Sui Jinyu said "oh", "It's nothing, I originally wanted to call you to New Year's Eve together." Are you home? Something at home? Yu Er was wearing sunglasses, and only a little smile could be seen at the corner of his mouth, "No, I just want to come back and see." You're not with your Kai brother on New Year's Eve? "Together, everyone together, I still want to call Panpan and Brother Dong." Sui Jinyu paused, "After the New Year, we will live in the world of two people." Yuer smiled even brighter, "I didn't ask you when you lived in the two-person world. She turned the wheel around, "I'm already on the road, you guys can cross together." Sui Jinyu didn't look lost, and responded happily, saying, "Let's get together again when you come back." ”

As soon as Yuer's car drove into the road in front of his house, he saw that the uncles and aunts on the street kept turning their heads to look at Yuer's car. Yuer was stared at in the hair, she knew them, they were all old neighbors.

The Yuer family lives in a small town in Binyang, where the people are warm and simple. The town is quiet and quiet, there are no outsiders coming and going, if a strange car passes by, the uncles and aunts chatting on the street will tacitly stop the fiery exchange and turn their heads to stare at the car. Until the car leaves, the aunts and uncles will look at the back of the car and guess together where the car came from.

Yur knew they didn't mean much, but he was still staring at him. She parked the car, took a deep breath, and pulled out a smile and got out of the car. The grandmother at the head greeted first, "Er'er is back." "It's back, Grandma." Immediately after that, an overwhelming number of greetings poured in, and Yu Er agreed one by one, and then fled home quickly.

There was no one at home, so she opened the door herself and went in. The family hasn't changed at all, just like when she was in school. Ur felt as if he had just come back from school, and shouted at the kitchen, "Mom, I'm hungry!" You'll get a "eat right away" response.

It's a pity that he can't do it anymore, Yu Er walked lonely to the place where his mother's photo was hung in the living room, raised his hand and touched his mother's face in the photo, and said softly: "Mom, I'm back." ”

When Yu Beiye returned, Yu Er was busy in the kitchen. She glanced around and called out to Dad. Yu Beiye agreed, glanced at her and said, "Back?" "Hmm."

Until it was time to eat, the father and daughter didn't say much. Yuer's ice cube face was like her father's, and the two of them sat together, but the ice cube to the ice cube, and the air around them were awkward and indifferent.

Yu Beiye poured himself a glass of wine, smacked it and said, "Tomorrow in the solar calendar, I will go to your grandfather's house for dinner in the evening." Yu Er lowered her eyes and didn't look at her father, only indifferently "um". Yu Beiye frowned and looked at Yu Er for a while, but he didn't say anything.

After eating, Yu Beiye went out for a walk, and Yu Er finished packing up and climbed up to the bungalow to watch the stars.

Once upon a time, she used to sit here and watch the sun set in the distance, watching the orange and lilac stain the entire sky. On summer evenings, she lies here with her mother, watching the stars shine and the mosquito coils lit next to her waft out of the smoke. Now, she was the only one left, standing straight with her hands in her pockets, and she was the only one left to look up at the stars. She was dressed in black, as if she was about to dissolve herself in the thick night, and when she lowered her head, two lines of clear tears fell.

Yu Er drove Yu Beiye to his grandfather's house, and his eldest uncle greeted him and shouted at Yu Beiye: "Beiye, you are so blessed, you have such a promising daughter." Before Beiye could react, the eldest uncle turned to Yu Er, and Yu Er called "uncle" and carried his things into the house.

Yu Er visited the elders, sat next to his aunt, and asked, "Didn't Qiao Yue come back?" The aunt shook her head and said, "She was busy with school and didn't come back." ”

Qiao Yue is Yuer's cousin and is studying at college outside. Yuer nodded, "I asked her if she came, and she said it wasn't decided yet." "Hmm." The aunt looked curious and got closer to Yuer, "How are you outside?" Got in love? Yur turned his face, "No." The aunt refused to give up and continued to come to her, "Don't fall in love yet, after this year, you will be twenty-nine!" Before Yu Er could answer, the aunt next to him came over again, "That's it, Er'er, look at your brother, the babies were born when they were twenty-eight." Yu Er knocked the melon seeds expressionlessly, listening to the two aunts urging marriage in his ears.

During the meal, the elders got together and talked about everything, from the international situation to the rising price of eggs.

For as long as she can remember, her mother has taken her to her grandfather's house several times a year. She likes to listen to these adults talking lively, and there is a warm warmth that envelops her. Every time she gets together, she is happy, except when their conversation turns to the kids.

Every time he talks about children, Yuer can hear that adults' love for children also contains a little bit of helplessness towards children, and this helplessness runs through every stage of children's growth. When he was in kindergarten, I didn't know what to do if he cried and didn't go to school, I didn't know what to do if he was bullied in elementary school, what to do when he was in adolescence, what to do with the college entrance examination, and what to do if he was looking for a job after graduating from college. Each child reacts differently to these problems, and adults talk about their children's reactions, and then express their helplessness about these reactions at the right time.

Yu Beiye's helplessness is the most. In this kind of discussion of children, the whole group is usually silent, no one interrupts his criticism of Er, and no one interrupts his complacent promotion of Er's oppressive education.

That's it.

Yu Beiye took a sip of wine, sighed, and suddenly quieted down during the banquet. Yu Beiye didn't look at Yu Er, as if he had been greatly wronged, "My girl......" Everyone turned their eyes to Yu Beiye, as if urging him to say the next sentence. Yuer didn't look at him, and kept eating vegetables.

Yu Beiye looked at Yu Er, who didn't seem to care, and said slowly, "It's useless to raise it." The silence in the banquet was raised a notch, and it seemed that even a needle could be heard. Yu Er's chewing voice was particularly harsh at this time, and Yu Beiye glanced at everyone, "When I came back yesterday, I said four words, maybe in two years, I won't even call my father." ”

Everyone turned their attention to Yu Er again, and Yu Er still lowered his head and lowered his eyes. The eldest uncle stood up to break the embarrassment and said, "How can it." ”

Yu Beiye got a response, and suddenly became excited, and shouted at his uncle: "How can it? That might be. ”
