Back in the community, all the way to the door of my unit, there were neighbors on the same road chatting along the way, asking this and that......

Until Wen Shuo said goodbye to everyone with an apologetic expression, and then walked into the unit door in everyone's reluctant eyes.

Standing at the door of the house, he calmed down and took out the key to open the door and enter.

Inside the house, cleaned up and tidy.

My mother was not at home.

However, the breath of home that has been lost for a long time is so familiar and so ...... It's nostalgic.

He came to his bedroom with a canvas bag, the sheets were neatly laid out, the desk was wiped clean, the windowsill, the glass, the floor, everything was silently narrated, although the child was not at home, the mother would still clean the child's bedroom every day, as if her child was always by her side.

Putting the canvas bag next to the wardrobe, Wen Shuo got up and went out, to the living room, to the other two bedrooms, to the kitchen, to the dining room, and to the bathroom......

He is in the capital, homesick, and misses his mother.

He could also think that his mother, who was a young widow and brought him up alone, must have lived alone at home for more than a year, and often, would miss her son, right? So inexplicably, Wen Shuo thought of the old Han Tou, who was now sleeping on the river embankment in the east of Liujiaying Village, and lived alone for most of his life.

Suddenly, the door lock sounded, and Wen Shuo hurriedly walked out of the kitchen.

Then, I saw my mother, who was wearing her previous work clothes, long pants and sandals, carrying a pesticide sprayer and a bamboo basket full of beans and greens. Li Qin quickly changed into slippers, and his eyes were already on his son who was striding over, Li Qin had tears in the corners of his eyes, but he raised his hand with a smile and scolded: "Don't come here, Mom just went to the vegetable garden to get medicine, and her body is dirty!"

"Mom......" Wen Shuo opened his arms.

"Go away!" Li Qin's face sank, and he waved his hand: "Stay away from me, I have some pesticide water all over me!"

Pushing his son away, Li Qin hurriedly went to the balcony, put down the pesticide sprayer, then went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and hurried to the bedroom to get clean clothes, then walked into the bathroom and closed the door: "I'll take a shower first, you go outside to buy a pound of pork ribs, and your mother will stew pork ribs for you to eat in a while, dead child, don't call in advance when you come back!"

The sound of rushing water was heard.

Wen Shuo scratched his head and walked out with a smile: "Mom, then I'm going to buy pork ribs." ”

I never thought that I hadn't come back for more than a year, and I just saw my mother, but it was like this - she went to the vegetable garden to hunt pesticides?

When did you have a vegetable garden at home?

When I came back from buying the ribs, my mother had already taken a shower and changed into clean clothes, had just washed the pesticide sprayer on the balcony, and put the dirty clothes in the washing machine that had been used for many years and the bucket had been broken.

"Mom, when will we have a vegetable garden?" Wen Shuo asked loudly as he brought the ribs to the kitchen.

"I drove it myself from the old house. After Li Qin went to the bathroom to wash his hands and wash them, he came to the kitchen to choose vegetables, and said: "When Old Han Tou was not dead, he also opened a vegetable garden at home, but he is old, and he can't grow a few vegetables in those ridges, so I opened a large one, and it's a pity that such a big house is deserted, anyway, I usually have to clean the house often...... Don't you know, if the house is not inhabited for a long time, everyone is popular, it can age quickly, or it will become broken bricks and tiles in a few years, and it will be cleaned up and cleaned up for decades......"

Wen Shuo squatted down to help his mother choose vegetables, while listening to his mother's babbling, and he also took a few words from time to time.

Mother and son were chatting in the kitchen.

It's like he's been living at home all the time, not a kid who has just returned home after more than a year of schooling.

Lunch was simple.

Rice, stewed pork ribs with beans, and egg soup with green vegetables.

The mother and son ate slowly and chatted slowly, as they had done when they were choosing vegetables and cooking in the kitchen before......

"It's all open to the branch, can you get busy?"

"Just hire more people, it's okay......"

"Then it will cost a lot of money to pay people every month, right? If you count the rent or something, can you still have any money left?"

"The monthly salary of employees is about 20,000 yuan, the rent is more than 40,000 yuan per month, plus the messy expenses, anyway, 80,000 or 90,000 yuan a month. Wen Shuo was a little proud: "The three stores, the daily turnover combined, must be at least more than 13,000! Mom, your son is now rich!"

"What about the company?"

"It's okay over there, there are millions in the account, but the company's money is not moving for the time being, and it is settled quarterly, and dividends are distributed when it is full of one year. However, we consider that this money should also be used for the company's turnover, and we don't need anything urgently anyway. ”

"Oh......" Li Qin asked, "Then, there is also your girlfriend, that girl's name is Skullcap Zhi, right?

"I met her dad and had a fight. ”

"You kid!" Li Qin slammed his chopsticks on his son's head with a straight face: "I know your stinky temper, and you can't say a word, why do you quarrel with people the first time we meet?"

"That's because of the cooperation, our company and her father's company talk about cooperation......"

"Then you can't be noisy!" Li Qin was really angry with a straight face, and then asked worriedly, "What happened later?"

"Later, it's all right. ”

"Are you alright? People aren't mad at you?"

"Mom......" Wen Shuo said with a smile: "Skullcap Zhi and her father, he is a big boss at this level, and the money in his hand can buy half of our county!" He gave a thumbs up and pouted: "You won't have the same knowledge as me, and guess what? He also praised me for having the courage to argue with him on the issue of cooperation, this is called official business, we can't talk about personal affairs." If I had given in, people would have looked down on me. ”

"That's ......" Li Qin immediately believed her son's words.

"Mom, I came back this time and got you 50,000 yuan. Wen Shuo nibbled on the ribs and said vaguely: "It's in the bedroom, in my canvas bag under my desk." ”

"What?" Li Qin was shocked, quickly got up and ran to the bedroom to check, and confirmed that the five stacks of hundred-yuan bills were still in the bag, tightly wrapped by a pile of clothes, and then he put his mind at ease, returned to the dining table and began to nag: "What are you doing with so much money? How dangerous! In case someone steals it...... Mom doesn't need it, you do business and go to school outside, and you have a lot of places to use money, alas...... Okay, anyway, the money has been returned, and when your eldest cousin gets married, you don't have to bother sending money. ”

"Uh-huh. Wen Shuo ate with a mouth full of oil and grinned innocently.

50,000 yuan is the bonus given by the company last time.

As soon as lunch was over, Wen Shuo was washing the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen, when he heard the sudden sound of diesel tricycles and the sound of a group of people shouting outside.

Looking out of the window, I saw a large agricultural diesel engine tricycle parked next to the lawn, Liu Ji, Li Yanbiao, Hou Jinqiang, Zhan Chuanhai, and six or seven young men jumped out of the car.

Li Qin walked in and took a look, then squeezed his son away, and said while washing the dishes: "Your friends are really well-informed, hurry up and go play." ”

"Oops. Wen Shuo grinned and turned his head to walk out.

Opening the door, a crowd of people rushed in:

"First brother!"

"Brother Shuo, you're back!"

"First brother, I heard that you have made a fortune in the capital......

"Brothers, I miss you!"

......

Welcomed them into the living room, and after a few words, a large group of people proposed to invite Wen Shuo to inspect the work at the scrap yard, and Wen Shuo also wanted to hurry up to see how far these brothers had done business in more than a year.

After saying hello to his mother, the group laughed and walked out.

As soon as he started the car and was about to leave, Li Qin suddenly shouted through the window: "Shuo, you come back first, Mom will say a few words to you......"

"Hey!" Wen Shuo jumped out of the car and ran back home.

Li Qin held a plastic bag containing the 50,000 yuan and a passbook, and said, "It just so happens that there are a lot of people, be safe, go to the bank and deposit the money." ”

"Cheng!" Wen Shuo took the plastic bag and nodded.

"And ......"

"Huh?"

Li Qin hesitated for a moment and said, "You, what, if your friends talk to you about the matter with the Jin Xiang family, it is the old Jin family in the farmers' market, and my mother quarreled with their family once last year, don't go to the trouble of the old Jin family again." ”

Wen Shuo frowned and did not speak.

"Promise Mom!" Li Qin sighed and said earnestly: "After the quarrel that day, Liu Ji and Biaozi, Qiangzi, and Wenjiang and their gangs, oh yes, and Village Chief Liu, brought a lot of people, and smashed the old Jin family's shop in the market, and later, the old Jin family also came to apologize to his mother several times, lost 10,000 yuan, and said all the good things......

"That's what they should be!" Wen Shuo clenched his right fist hard.

"Anyway, the loss of the old Jin family is too great, my mother feels that I can't go, I have to be a man, I have to spare people and spare people, I can't really force people to death just because of a little thing, right?" Li Qin grabbed his son's hand and said: "After that incident, the old Jin family is really good to my mother, and my mother can only collect the waste products in the farmers' market...... Mom still thinks this thing is strange, no matter how Village Chief Liu and Jin Xiang explain it to me, I can't understand it, they, as for being so afraid of you? Alas, anyway, anyway, after the matter is over, Mom asks for mercy for the old Jin family, Shuo, don't retaliate, okay?"

"Done. Wen Shuo smiled and nodded, and said, "Mom, no one's face is sold, and I have to give you face, right?"

"Good son. Li Qin smiled with satisfaction and patted her son's cheek: "Go play, go outside and buy a few packs of cigarettes, and be generous in front of these brothers and friends...... Okay, you're better than theirs right now, but don't be too ostentatious, ah. ”

"yes, I see. ”

"Go ahead. ”
