Chapter 229: Harmony
The health of the old man affects the hearts of a large family, and everyone revolves around the old man, lest he take care of it properly. In this way, there are more opportunities for everyone to get along. After a long time, Xinlan found that Da Ling was really like what Fusheng said, and her heart had changed a lot. Every Sunday, in addition to bringing food to the old man and Fusheng, he always waits for the old man here with Xinjun for a while, which makes Xinlan very excited, and she and Xinjun have also been working for a week, and it is not easy to be here this Sunday. Now that she can have this act of honoring the elderly and being considerate of people, it is enough to show that Da Ling is not an unreasonable person.
Thinking like this in her heart, she couldn't help but feel sorry for her brother and Da Ling, so she told Fusheng about it. After discussing it, they advised Xinjun and Da Ling to also pay attention to their bodies, and when the two came back on Sunday, they would not let them stay longer. However, this point coincides with Xinjun's thoughts. Xinjun and Da Ling also had this mentality, thinking that the eldest sister and brother-in-law were working too hard to serve the old man here all day, so they came over on Sunday, first, to see their father, and secondly, they also wanted their brother-in-law to rest and rest. Everyone has this thought, and slowly, the family has no mustard, no estrangement, and they also care about each other. Sometimes, when Xinlan felt that they were coming, she would wrap some melon seeds and peanuts in the store and bring them over, so that they could take them to eat.
Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, it was the time of the Spring Festival. On this day, Lu Dong deliberately made a detour to his home after work. Xinlan is cooking. Seeing his mother, Lu Dong said: "Mom, tell you something, you can think about it." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Yesterday, Liu Qin received a letter from her family, her parents said that it has been so long since they moved here, and the children are more than two years old, and they want to let us take the children back to celebrate the New Year during the Spring Festival. What do you think? ”
"And what do you two think?"
"Liuqin and I both feel that we can't go, first, my grandfather is sick; The second is the Spring Festival time and your business is busy, and it is the time when you need manpower, which is suddenly gone, afraid that you can't open it, so you want to push it back. But her parents didn't open their mouths easily, and I felt that I couldn't refuse, so I thought about talking to you. Lu Dong thought and said.
Hearing Lu Dong say this, Xinlan said: "If you want to say that you should have gone back to see it a long time ago!" It's been so long, and you don't have time to go to work until the end of the New Year. Xinlan said, thought thoughtfully, and then said: "Prepare when you two are fine, I'll go back and tell your father, if there are no special circumstances, you two can go back when it's convenient." ”
When Lu Dong heard about it, he agreed to go.
Early the next morning, Xinlan told Fusheng about it. Fusheng and Xinlan had the same thoughts in their hearts, and they also felt that they should go back to have a look, but he felt in his heart that these few times were all places to employ people, and as soon as they left, it was inevitable that the manpower should be nervous again. He thought so, so he said: "Speaking of which, don't say that they should go back and have a look, even if we should go back and take a turn, it's just that when they leave, you're nervous here." ”
"It's okay, won't there be two girls by then?"
"Hey, it's not that you don't know the work of the two of them, and there are a lot of shifts during the Spring Festival, so how can I have time to help you."
"I think it's okay, don't you usually come over like this? Although Liu Qin can help keep an eye on the store here, the child ties her all day long, and she can't help much in the store; It's just you who work hard here, but it's only ten days. I thought that when the time comes, we will prepare in advance, and I will ask Li Xing to help me buy more, otherwise there will be no delay. Besides, we still have a helper, but I don't know if he will come back then, if he does, we won't be nervous. ”
"You're talking about Lu Nan, right? Who knows if Lu Nan will come back, he has a partner in his hometown, and it is not certain whether he will spend the New Year in his hometown. ”
"How can he live in the woman's house if he is not married, impossible!"
"I hope so! He's coming back, and he'll be really helpful. ”
The two of them said, made up their minds, and turned around and told Lu Dong the result, so Lu Dong and Liu Qin got ready.
Time flies, and after a heavy snowfall, the Spring Festival is approaching in a blink of an eye. Because Lu Dong was going back to his hometown, he hadn't yet reached the time for the unit to take a holiday, so he had already greeted the unit and asked for two more days off. When Xinlan saw it, she knew that Lu Dong's heart was like an arrow, and she couldn't hold her breath anymore, so she also began to prepare. In fact, there is nothing to prepare, nothing more than to bring some food and clothing, as well as some susurrels that need to be brought when visiting relatives and friends. But as soon as she mentioned her idea to Fusheng, Fusheng said: "Don't buy it indiscriminately, go and ask Lu Dong first to see if he can bring it." Don't forget you have a baby! ”
When Xinlan heard about it, she went to ask Lu Dong. Lu Dongdao: "You don't have to worry about this, I'll just go back and bring some local cigarettes and alcohol, and I can't take anything else." ”
"Otherwise, I'll buy less, and you can go back and bring it back to Guizhi!" Xinlan Road.
"Oh, I thought you were just bringing it to her! Don't worry, Mom! You don't have to buy it again, I will buy the same when I get home, save it on the road and can't take it, I promise to bring your will when I go back. ”
"I know you can bring it, but I always feel a little uncomfortable."
"Don't think about it so much, Mom, it's been so long, you still can't put it down?! Let me say, what is in your heart when you go back, don't think about anything else, I promise to bring your intentions. ”
Hearing Lu Dong say this, although Xinlan felt a little reasonable in her heart, she still couldn't get over this hurdle in terms of emotion. She didn't say anything, so she went back and discussed with Fusheng secretly for a while, preparing in her heart, and Lu Dong prepared the rest.
On the day of leaving, it was the twenty-second day of the lunar month, the day before the new year. Lu Dong carried the things he brought, Liu Qin held the child, and the two counted the time to come over in advance to say goodbye to their mother. When Xinlan saw her little grandson, she couldn't help but be happy, and couldn't help hugging the child for a while. Then while explaining the matters to be paid attention to on the road, he took out two hundred yuan from his pocket and gave it to Lu Dong. Lu Dong looked at it and hurriedly excused himself: "Mom, why are you giving me so much money?" ”
"Look at what your kid said, you and Liu Qin got married and came out, it's been more than three years, this is the first time to go back, can you be empty-handed then?"
"Then you don't have to pay for it, I have it in my hand, and then Liu Qin and I won't be able to pay for it." Lu Dongdao.
"You two pay for the two of you, and I pay for our family. The reason why I give you so much is mainly because there is another thing that is the matter of the villagers in this township, although we have been out for so long, but Lu Nan is still in his hometown, and Liu Qin and the child's household registration are also in their hometown, so we can't break our roots. You two go back this time, see who gave you a gift when you got married, if Lu Nan missed someone who didn't add a box to someone, you go and sit down, on behalf of our family to make up the gift, don't be rude. ”
"Oh, that's it, but I don't think so, I remember my dad said that he handed over the gift list to Lu Nan before he came, and told him by the way." Lu Dongdao.
"No, of course, I'll sit down with you, ah!" Xinlan was afraid that Lu Dong would not take it seriously, so she admonished again.
"Okay, don't worry, Mom!"
Lu Dong said that he took the money, and after asking Liuqin to put it away, he said goodbye to his mother, hugged the child with Liuqin, took things out of the house, took the car to the station, and took the car back to his hometown overnight.
