From late autumn to early winter, the weather is as cold as a day, and in just two weeks, people's clothing has changed from neat thin shirts to thick jackets with plush and puff. It was dark very early, and it was not half past six when Shi Jiaojiao walked out of the office building, and it was already gray outside, and the lights in the factory area were also turned on early. It was time for them to have dinner, and the people on the night shift went to work after eating in the cafeteria, and the day shift was happily preparing to go out of the garden to relax.

There is only one bus directly to the development zone here, there is no more after seven o'clock, if you miss the last one, you have to transfer to detour from the city, Shi Jiaojiao looked at the time, lifted the bag belt on her shoulder, and accelerated the pace. The lights were already on at the gatekeeper, and only one of the three security guards was on duty, holding a box at the moment, looking up and talking to a woman. "Ah, Mr. Shi is off work?" As soon as the middle-aged man saw Shi Jiaojiao, he hurriedly put down the box, pushed the woman next to him aside, stood up and said.

Shi Jiaojiao pursed her lips and smiled, pointing outside the gate, "Hurry up to catch the bus, you can have a good meal!" A man and a woman looked at each other in the security room, the man scratched the back of his head, and said with a smile: "I don't want her to send it, she wants to send it, I said that it is not appropriate to eat at the post!" Shi Jiaojiao waved her hand, "When you go to eat, the food in the canteen should be cold, it's nothing." I'm still in a hurry, let's go first! "Oh, yes!" The couple looked at Shi Jiaojiao's back with a smile on their faces.

"Hey......" Shi Jiaojiao stood next to an unattended phone booth at the T-junction, looked at the bus shaking her ass and went away slowly, and sighed helplessly, "I still missed it!" She pulled on the pale red woolen scarf, rubbed her hands and slipped it into her coat pocket, "It's good, I don't have to run to catch it." After comforting herself, Shi Jiaojiao had just raised her feet and was about to cross the road, when she heard two clear car horns on the right side of the road.

The car was parked between the two street lamps, just where the light was blurred, and only the general outline and darker body could be seen, but Shi Jiaojiao still recognized this car at first sight, and the sports SUV purchased before their wedding, her heart tightened, and she ran over quickly with her legs. As soon as Shi Jiaojiao moved, the carriage lit up, Tang Jianyu opened the door and stood out, at this time the light seemed to be suddenly intense, and even the corners of the man's slightly upturned lips could be seen clearly.

As soon as Tang Jianyu got off the plane, he took leave with the team leader, and drove all the way from the airport in a neighboring city alone, just to be able to pick up his wife from work. "You're too messy, you drive three hours for a four-hour journey, what should you do if something happens?" Shi Jiaojiao's eyes fluttered, she pressed her chest in fear, looked ahead angrily, and muttered: "I really can't bear more accidents......" "What? Tang Jianyu asked, Shi Jiaojiao squinted at him, "It's nothing, it's just scolding you." ”

Tang Jianyu smiled good-naturedly and did not speak, Shi Jiaojiao no longer verbally entangled, and the two stayed quietly for a while. She leaned on the glass and looked at it, recognized it as the route to her in-laws' house, and couldn't help but ask, "Don't you go home?" Tang Jianyu pursed his lips, "It's too late, I called back, and my parents left us dinner." "Oh," Shi Jiaojiao grinned and didn't speak, a familiar feeling of blockage welled up in her throat and quickly disappeared.

"What's wrong?" Tang Jianyu saw that Shi Jiaojiao's face was different, and asked softly, Shi Jiaojiao Nunu mouthed, "Mother and Sister Zhu must be big again, every time I go back, it's like Chinese New Year's Eve, just thinking about it will be full first." "Haha." Tang Jianyu laughed loudly, licked his lips and said, "She loves you, if you can't eat it, eat less, and I'll cover you up when the time comes!" Shi Jiaojiao's eyes rolled out when she heard this, "Forget it, I haven't been persuaded by a bowl of soup yet." ”

Speaking of this, the two couldn't help laughing: the older people are, the more they can't refuse the kindness of the old man.

The small villa near the sports park in the development zone is not far from the house in the city where the Tang family's parents live, and it only takes 20 minutes to drive when the traffic is smooth. Tang's mother very much wanted the young couple to stay at home for the night, and when Sister Zhu served everyone tea after dinner, she said with great fanfare that the room had been cleaned up. Shi Jiaojiao is very considerate of the old man's affection for not seeing his son for a long time, and neither excuses nor agrees, it is all up to Tang Jianyu to make the decision.

"Let's talk about it in a few days, I just came back and have a lot of trivial things to sort out." Tang Jianyu put down the cup, his eyes were already looking at the entrance diagonally opposite the flower hall, and said, "And there will be classes in the university the day after tomorrow, maybe I will have to work overtime tonight!" Mother Tang looked at Shi Jiaojiao pitifully, and Shi Jiaojiao shrugged helplessly. Seeing this, Tang's father patted his son's shoulder and said, "Then go back early, don't waste time." Mother Tang snorted coldly when she heard this, and turned her head angrily.

Shi Jiaojiao said goodbye to the second elder and Sister Zhu, and the three of them were sent to the corridor, Shi Jiaojiao saw that Tang's mother was angry, pretended to remember suddenly, patted her head and said: "Mom, the herbs in the small yard have withered, and the land is bare now." Am I going to do something, it's ugly. When the woman heard this, she stretched out her neck and asked, "Have you harvested the seeds at the flowering time?" Shi Jiaojiao shook her head, "It seems that some of them haven't bloomed at all." "Don't worry, some of the seeds have bloomed again in spring, and some of the seeds have already fallen into the soil." Shi Jiaojiao nodded instructively, "That's good, my mother still knows this best." ”

"Speaking of which," Tang's mother called her son, turned around and patted Sister Zhu's arm, Sister Zhu turned around and entered the house, and after a while took a small gift box out. Mother Tang took the box, took Shi Jiaojiao's hand, put it on her palm, and said, "Sister Zhu and I dried some perilla leaves, which are very fragrant, mixed with some dried blueberries from the Northeast, and made this fruit tea." You're both eye-bothered, so it's best to soak in it on weekdays! Tang Jianyu took the box from his wife's arms, put it under his nose and smelled it, and praised, "This smells fragrant." Tang's mother pouted, "Take my things and leave quickly, be careful when driving." ”

The box is fifteen centimeters square, black with dark streaks pressed throughout, and the lid is decorated with a dark purple ribbon that is knotted into a simple bow. After opening it, I didn't see the tea fruit directly, but wrapped it in pale yellow rice paper, which was hygienic and emotional. "Your mother is such a sophisticated old lady!" Shi Jiaojiao couldn't help but sigh, Tang Jianyu blinked, "She has a lot of old sisters, even if they don't pay attention to it, they are also particular about comparing with each other." Shi Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows, "Then we are really stained with the light of the aunts." ”

The two parked the car and returned home, and just before they could turn on the lights when they heard a muffled "knock", followed by a long cat meow. "Knock knock." Tang Jianyu carried the box and called affectionately, but did not respond. Shi Jiaojiao turned on the light, searched the living room, and also called the cat, and was about to bow her head to take the slippers, when she saw a fluffy "small cannonball", meow all the way and ran over, causing Tang Jianyu to sour for a while, "Wow, does it simply not know me!" ”
