Chapter 3: Return to Jianghai City
Jianghai City's status in the Xianglong Empire is very special! Economic, cultural, and political ······ In any way, Jianghai City is only medium. However, it is such a city that has an unusually special status in the Xianglong Empire. Because, this is the hometown of General Feng Fury, it is also the station of the Fury Wave Army, and it is also one of the sea gateways of the Xianglong Empire.
Walking on the familiar streets of Jianghai City, Han Feng had the illusion of being in a different world. He had only been away from Jianghai City for just two years, but he had a feeling that he had been away for a long, long time. Everything around him seemed so familiar and strange at the same time. The same scene has appeared in dreams countless times.
It is not as prosperous and advanced as Longjing City, but it is not his hometown. No matter how good a foreign land is, it cannot replace the status of the hometown. He has friends in a foreign land, but he has family in his hometown! No matter how far he goes, his roots are still rooted in the land of his hometown.
At the beginning of the lanterns, Han Feng once again stood in front of the wooden door that had appeared in his dreams countless times. In his dreams, he looked forward to pushing the door open again countless times. However, when he actually stood in front of the door again, he became hesitant. It's human nature to be cowardly in the near home!
However, sooner or later, we have to face it!
As it gets late, the smell of food wafts from every house, and people who have gone out to work are starting to return home. Some of the neighbors began to notice the strange man who had been standing in front of the door, but due to the intimidating appearance of the Ice Roar, they only dared to stand and point at a distance. Because Han Feng was wearing a hooded cloak and had been away for a while, no one recognized this strange person as the son of the Han family.
"Who are you?" a child of eight or nine years old ran up to Han Feng and looked at Han Feng curiously. "Are you a magician?"
Han Feng tilted his head and looked at the child. However, he was wearing a hooded cloak, and his whole face was hidden in the shadows, which immediately frightened the little hairy head. He subconsciously took a few steps back, but he still said stiffly: "You... You... What do you want to do? I warn you, I'm pretty good. Also, yes, Brother Han Feng is a top student in the Academy of Magic. If you dare to mess around, he will definitely clean you up when he comes back. ”
"Poof!" Han Feng was happy in his heart, he didn't expect that he was actually threatened by a little hairy head, and he used himself to threaten himself. If they let Ouyang know, they wouldn't die of laughter. He rested the heavy roar of ice on his shoulders on the ground, ready to lift the hood from his head.
However, his action frightened the child's parents enough! They rushed in front of the child and blocked them with their bodies. "Magician, I'm sorry! Don't be surprised that children are ignorant and talk nonsense. You have a lot of them, don't worry about them. ”
Han Feng was stunned for a moment, and his action of wanting to lift the hood also stopped. That's your parents, they can give everything for you, but they never think anything in return. They will only be proud of you, but they will never blame you!
As soon as the hood on his head was removed, Han Feng's face appeared in front of the nervous family of three. Seeing Han Feng's face, they were stunned at first, because this face was too young, and it was very different from the image of a magician in their impression. However, they always felt that this face was a little inexplicably familiar, but they couldn't remember where they had seen it.
Han Feng didn't like to communicate with people, so he just smiled at them kindly, and then walked past a few people and knocked lightly on the door.
Seeing that Han Feng had no intention of bothering with them, the two couples hurriedly pulled their children away from the place of right and wrong. As the saying goes, it's none of your business, hang it high! More things are better than less, and they can't control what Han Feng wants to do. Magicians have a high status, and they are not something that ordinary people can provoke. As for why they felt familiar, they didn't think about it, and they didn't have the leisure to figure it out.
"Who's coming!" came a familiar voice from inside the door, it was the mother's voice. However, the mother was obviously busy and did not come directly to open the door, but asked her husband to open the door. "Jing Nan, go open the door! ”
"It's coming, it's coming!" After not seeing him for two years, Han Feng felt that his father's voice was a little old again. However, being able to hear the familiar voice of his parents, Han Feng already felt very satisfied, the water in his eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth turned up uncontrollably.
"Babble!" the wooden door slowly opened, and his father's appearance, which was even older than two years ago, appeared in front of Han Feng's eyes. He remembered that two years ago, his father's head was only a few silver threads, but now it was almost half white. Looking at his father's aging appearance, Han Feng's eyes were full of tears, and a thousand words were stuffed in his throat, and he couldn't say a word.
Seeing Han Feng, Han Jingnan was also stunned, obviously unable to believe his eyes. When he was sure that he was not mistaken, and that his son had really returned, he was so excited that he couldn't help himself. He was so excited that he couldn't say anything, just patted Han Feng's shoulder vigorously. This man, who had never shed tears in his life, was so excited that his eyes were red.
"What's wrong? Who is coming?" Zhao Xueting, who didn't hear the movement, asked out loud.
When Han Jingnan heard his wife's question, he felt as if he had been awakened. "Xueting, come out quickly! Our precious son is back. ”
"What?" The room was suddenly in chaos, and Zhao Xueting, who was wearing an apron, hurriedly ran out of the house. "Where is my son?"
"Dad, Mom, I'm back!" Han Feng held back the excitement in his heart and calmed himself down as much as possible. However, it is clear that he did not do so well. There was a hint of trilling in his voice, and his demeanor was quite uncalm.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back, it's good to be back······" In Han Feng's impression, his father Han Jingnan has never been a talkative person, let alone how to express his feelings. At this moment, he couldn't help himself with excitement, and he would only keep repeating the phrase "just come back".
Seeing her husband's stupid appearance, Zhao Xueting couldn't help but glance at him with disgust. "Why are you still blocking the door? Why don't you go away and let his son in. ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Han Jingnan patted his head, "Look at me, I'm confused." Why are you standing in the doorway? Come in. As he spoke, he reached out to take the luggage from Han Feng's hand.
However, how could Han Feng ask him to help him carry his luggage. "Dad, no need. It's all clothes, they don't weigh much at all, I can take them myself. ”
"Oh well. Han Jingnan saw that Han Feng refused to hand over his luggage, and he was no longer reluctant. "Your mom is cooking! I didn't know you were coming back, so I didn't prepare much. You sit at home for a while, and I'll go out and buy some more cooked food and come back. ”
"Dad, no need!" Han Feng grabbed his father. "I'll eat whatever you eat. ”
Han Jingnan, who couldn't resist his son, had to sit down again. "Okay, then let's have a little bit of it tonight. Hurry up Ming'er, I'll ask your mother to cook you a delicious meal. ”
"Yes!" Zhao Xueting also chimed in. "Tell Mom what you want to eat, Mom will make it for you tomorrow. ”
"As long as it's made by my mother, I like it. Han Feng had a sunny smile on his face. He only showed this defenseless smile when he faced his parents. "Mom's cooking is the best!"
"You kid, you will talk nonsense!" Zhao Xueting was saying that Han Feng was not, but in fact she was very happy. What mother would not be happy to hear that her child likes to eat the food she cooks.
Zhao Xueting's dinner is very simple, it is all very ordinary home-cooked food. Maybe because Han Feng was not at home, today's meal was even more simple than the dinner in Han Feng's impression, no wonder his father was in a hurry to buy some cooked food just now. Han Feng knew that this was because his parents wanted to save money. They are always like this, they would rather suffer themselves than provide Han Feng with better living conditions.
To be honest, Han Feng was really a little unaccustomed to it at first! What kind of place is the Deep Blue Academy? It is the top higher magic academy in the entire Xianglong Empire. The Higher School of Magic, but the cradle of the Empire's magicians, is the foundation of the Empire. Every country spares no effort in cultivating magicians. Therefore, when Han Feng was in Deep Blue Academy, although it could not be said that every day was delicacies from the mountains and seas, there were still big fish and big meat. After all, eating and drinking is not too much of an expense for magicians.
However, for a civilian family like the Han family, although they will not starve, their living conditions will not be much better. At least, it is impossible to eat big fish and meat every day, and at most it will be eaten better during the New Year's holidays.
The food cooked by Zhao Xueting naturally cannot be compared with what Deep Blue Academy provides. However, for Han Feng, the food at home is much better than the food eaten at the academy. In fact, when people make judgments about something, they often add their own subjective thoughts. The same meal, the taste is secondary, what really matters is actually the heart. In the end, the meals at the academy are just to fill the stomach and satisfy one's appetite. And the meals at home are different, in which the love of parents is poured into them.
The food on the table is not as good as the cafeteria of Deep Blue Academy in any way. However, it made Han Feng feel the deep love of his parents! Maybe they never talk about love, but they integrate their love for themselves into every detail of their lives.
The love of parents is not as blazing and dazzling as the sun, but it is like spring rain that nourishes all things unconsciously!
