When he opened the door and changed his shoes in the hallway, Lin Congrong heard a burst of laughter and discussion from the living room. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"There are a lot of shoes on the floor, are there any guests at home?" Lin Congrong thought so and walked quickly towards the living room.

The closer he got, the more Lin Congrong could feel the noise in the living room, and when he walked up, he saw the situation at home clearly.

"Uncle? Second uncle? Fourth uncle? You're all here. ”

"Huh? Isn't this Lin Congrong, your father also said that you went to school, why did you come back? ”

"Huh? yes, how did you get back? ”

Seeing that the elders of the big family in front of him kept asking questions to him, Lin Congrong could answer them one by one, so he had to smile awkwardly, and after greeting them one by one, he walked to his parents.

"Son, why are you back? Aren't classes going to class today? ”

Now it is his father who asks this question, thinking that before he left from the time and space university, Liu Laoliu asked him not to disclose the news about the school, Lin Congrong replied: "Yes, our school has fewer classes per week, so I will come back in the next two days." ”

"Really?" This answer did not satisfy Lin Congrong's father, and he saw his dark eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Sit down first, come, have you eaten? Come and eat with us. Lin Congrong's mother had already taken out a pair of chopsticks from the kitchen, filled the steaming white rice, and handed it to Lin Congrong.

"yes, okay." Lin Congrong asked his mother to sit down first, and then he brought a chair from the side and sat down against his mother.

"Your uncle came to our house this time to celebrate your second cousin's admission to University A in our city, and to learn more from your second cousin." Lin Congrong's father stared at Lin Congrong with a serious expression on his face.

met his father's gaze, and Lin Congrong suddenly felt uncomfortable in his heart.

Because he found that his father was indeed old.

My father worked in a steel mill in the city and was an accountant. Lin Congrong remembered that when he was in junior high school, his father would teach himself until two or three o'clock in the morning because of a trivial matter, and he was drowsy at that time and was dissatisfied with his father.

But now, when he looked at his father carefully, Lin Congrong found that the tough and terrible man he used to be was gone.

My father's pupils were a little cloudy, yellowish brown and dull, and the whites of the eyes around the pupils were red and bloodshot from work exertion, and the skin around the eyes was visibly relaxed.

But what about my father's skin? Compared with his own white face, the skin of his father's face was yellow and black, and his luster was dull. At this time, he may have just come home from work, because of the tiring work, his face was thinly oiled, his not very straight nose was a little red, and he could even see a grain of oil shining brightly, coupled with the countless blackheads and large pores, the whole person looked sluggish and old.

The hairline in front of my father's forehead has shown some signs of receding, the perennial flat hairstyle is a little messy, the hair is no longer black, it looks a little gray, and gray hair has grown in some places.

Lin Congrong looked at his father's face carefully, a little stunned, and couldn't help but think of the man who had a loud voice, full of energy, and scolded him until the early hours of the morning, and his heart was even more mixed.

At this time, a man next to him began to speak, it was Lin Congrong's uncle who worked in the power company: "Come, let's have a drink first!" ”

Lin Congrong's father didn't notice that his son was looking at him, and when he heard the uncle say cheers, he took his eyes off Lin Congrong's face and poured himself a glass of wine.

Father's hand is also a little unsteady in holding the wine bottle, Lin Congrong thought to himself.

After everyone finished drinking, Lin Congrong's uncle gave Lin Congrong's second cousin a thumbs up: "Lin Dong, you are very promising, after entering the university, you have to work harder, work harder, and find a good job in the future, you know?" ”

"Yes, Uncle is right, come, I'll toast you." Lin Congrong's second cousin is called Lin Dong, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses that cover half of his face, he nodded, with a polite smile on his face, he has heard similar words from many people many times, and he has already had a set of skilled response processes.

Lin Congrong looked at his second cousin Lin Dong, because he didn't live in the same city, Lin Dong only came to his house a few times when he was a child, but the two had a good time, but when they met again today, from the beginning when he entered the door and sat down, to the present when everyone toasted, Lin Dong didn't seem to have seen him once at all.

At this time, another woman in her thirties spoke, she was the wife of Lin Congrong's fourth uncle, that is, Lin Congrong's fourth aunt, she pointed to Lin Dong, and said quickly to her daughter sitting next to her: "You have to learn from your brother, you know?" In the future, I will be like my brother and take the entrance examination to a prestigious university, so that I can have a future career! ”

"I know, my brother is a college student, and he was admitted to a prestigious university?" The daughter of the fourth aunt looked at Lin Dong curiously with dark eyes, this girl was only seven years old and had just entered the first grade, and Lin Dong also nodded at her and smiled casually.

Unexpectedly, after the fourth aunt's daughter finished talking to Lin Dong, she took the initiative to ask her mother, the fourth aunt: "Mom, is the other brother a college student?" ”

The fourth aunt paused and sighed. Then he instructed his daughter: "Then you can ask your third uncle." ”

"Third uncle, is this brother a college student?" The fourth aunt's daughter pointed at Lin Congrong and asked Lin Congrong's father with a wink.

"Hehe, I'm not a college student, I'm still a high school student." Lin Congrong's father barely squeezed out a little smile on his face, and replied to the little girl in a low voice, and all this was especially bad in Lin Congrong's eyes.

"Hehe, Lin Dong has always studied very seriously, you don't know, even if it's not exam week, I read until twelve o'clock every night, every time we tell him to rest, do you know what he says? He said, let me watch a little more, let me watch a little more, hahahahaha, really study very seriously. ”

Lin Congrong's second uncle, that is, Lin Dong's father, smiled happily, now he has touched the cup with the uncle three or four times, and the two of them drank liquor, so at this moment, this middle-aged man looks red. Hearing her husband praise her son, Lin Congrong's second aunt also smiled reservedly.

Because everyone is eating at Lin Congrong's house now, Lin Congrong's father quietly listened to everyone's words, and casually did his best to be a landlord and beckoned everyone to eat more vegetables, but Lin Congrong knew very well that his parents were not in a high mood, and it could be seen from the fact that they had not said a few words from beginning to end.

"Oh, third brother, in the future, Lin Dong will study in your city, so I will rely on you to take care of him. If we hadn't sent Lin Dong to study in your city this time, it would have been rare for us to get together, come to Lin Dong, and toast your third uncle with a glass of wine. The second uncle smiled happily at Lin Congrong's father, and then beckoned his son to come and toast.

"Come, third uncle, I will toast you, and please take care of me in the future." Lin Dong politely raised his glass.

"Okay, okay, you can come and walk around and come to our house for dinner in the future." Lin Congrong's father smiled, and then touched the cup with Lin Dong.

The uncle's son was not present today, because he had graduated from college for four or five years, and now he was working in a foreign-funded company, engaged in information and communication work, and it was said that he could get a salary of more than 10,000 yuan a month.

Lin Congrong was eating, chatting casually with his parents about the situation in school, to the effect that the environment is good, studying hard, and living well, as for the future, although Lin Congrong does not dare to pat his chest with his parents now, he already has a bottom in his heart and doesn't care too much. Just imagine, let's talk about a skill in the world system of LOL and Warcraft: stealth. If you learn it, you can do so many great things!

Finally, the relatives paid attention to Lin Congrong's body, only to see the uncle reach over across half the table and push Lin Congrong, who was eating with a stuffy head: "Hey, Xiao Linzi, I heard your father say that you changed schools again?" ”

"Ah, yes." Lin Congrong was caught off guard and nodded.

Suddenly, most of the eyes of the people at the table were focused on Lin Congrong, and when he saw this scene, the uncle asked again: "Why did you change schools again?" ”

"Hehe, I took care of things that shouldn't be taken care of, and the principal of the previous school fired me." Lin Congrong had a bottom in his heart anyway, so he said it directly without concealing it.

As soon as these words came out, Lin Congrong's parents couldn't help but say that their faces were not to be said, and their relatives suddenly showed strange looks, and even the second cousin Lin Dong shook his head slightly.

"Hey, study hard, young man, for the sake of your future!" The uncle patted Lin Congrong's shoulder heavily, revealing a serious expression.

"Yes, I see." Lin Congrong smiled and agreed.

"Be obedient!" The uncle patted Lin Congrong's shoulder again, and then withdrew his hand.

Immediately, the topic of relatives revolved around Lin Dong and the uncle's son, and in the end, no one spoke to Lin Congrong, and Lin Congrong's parents sat almost silently on the side in addition to smiling and persuading everyone to pour food and wine, and did not participate in the conversation of relatives.

……

After the cups and plates were messy, and after the wine and food were full, the relatives said goodbye to Lin Congrong's house one by one, and when Lin Congrong was helping his parents clean up the dishes and chopsticks, unsurprisingly, his father began to sigh.

"Work hard, son."

And Lin Congrong's mother also stopped what she was doing and said sullenly: "Do you know? Because of your expulsion from school this time, your father and I don't dare to take the initiative to mention you to others every time we are outside, but at our age, what we talk about when we meet is nothing more than children, bodies, and families, can you understand the feelings of parents who dare not mention their children to others? ”

"......" Although Lin Congrong was mentally prepared, when he heard his mother's words, he couldn't help but think about it.

Because of himself, when other people's parents are talking about their children outside, their parents can only be silent on the sidelines, and when they are other people's foils, even their relatives get together today, they are like this, let alone people who are not related to themselves.

"Father, mother, look at me, I will achieve an honor that you will be proud of in the Plane Academy. Hehe, you don't know what kind of place I'm in right now, right...... As long as you have a dream and are willing to put in the effort, you will definitely be able to realize your heart's desire. ”
