Return To 1998

After the dinner, Xu Changsheng followed Xu Tongdao and Xi Dongyang into the car. When he went downstairs just now, he had already said that Xu Changsheng would take their car back.

As the New Year approached, it was night again, and there were obviously fewer pedestrians on the street than usual.

Xu Tongdao adjusted his sitting posture, exhaled comfortably, and turned to ask Xu Changsheng beside him, "Changsheng, are you going home for the Chinese New Year this year?"

Xu Changsheng calmed down when he heard the words, looked at Xu Tongdao, hesitated and said: "Forget it, I still don't go back! I followed you for the past two years, and finally saved some money..."

Xu Tongdao smiled and said, "It’s good if you have a clear heart. You saw it tonight. Lin Zi has found such a beautiful girlfriend. You are older than him. Next year, you will work hard to find a suitable one. , To talk about love for a year or two, just save some more money, and then get married, get married, you can go back if you want to go home, what do you think?"

Xu Changsheng smiled and nodded, "You are right! I listen to you."

...

When Xu Changsheng was sent to the residence, Xu Tongdao and Xi Dongyang drove away.

Xu Changsheng opened the door of the rental house, walked into the house, closed the door, and drank some wine tonight. At this time, he had red cheeks and blurred eyes. He stood in a small rental house and looked around, lonely. Feeling spontaneously.

After he came out, he never returned home, and he did not go back last year during the Chinese New Year.

He didn't usually have any friends, and his relatives broke contact even more.

During the festive season, he also has the affection for the best relatives.

He is only in his twenties after all.

He... is a little homesick.

Actually, I thought about it a long time ago.

It's just that because I drank some wine tonight, my heart became particularly sensitive, and I was especially homesick.

Even though that home is not warm to him, the stepmother is not good to him, and the younger brother and younger sister whom the stepmother gave birth to him are not respectable to him as an older brother.

Even his own father, after marrying him that stepmother, his heart completely turned to his stepmother's side, and he no longer cared about his eldest son...

But, he is a man after all!

It's human, who doesn't yearn for family affection? Who doesn't long for the warmth of family?

Moreover, since he hasn't been home for so long, no one must have visited his mother's grave, and no one must have plucked the grass at the head of the grave.

With these in mind, Xu Changsheng sighed softly, sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the night outside the window in a daze.

The thought of going home to take a look became stronger and stronger.

...

The twenty-eighth lunar month.

Xu Tongdao returned to his home in Shazhou County.

The younger brother Xu Tonglu was already on vacation. His younger sister was very diligent. When he came back, he saw his younger sister Ge Yuzhu standing on a stool outside the window, wiping the window glass with a rag.

Xu Tonglu has grown taller again, and has become a bit more western in his outfit, black jeans and a white turtleneck sweater. At this time, he rolls up his sleeves and wipes the window glass with his sister Ge Yuzhu.

Seen from a distance, tall and long legs.

Xu Tongdao feels that this kid is now a bit taller than his big brother.

It may have been 1.5 meters.

The gate of the yard was open, and Xu Tongdao stepped on the accelerator lightly and drove the car directly into the yard.

Xu Tonglu and Ge Yuzhu immediately looked back.

"Big brother? Big brother, are you back?"

With a look of surprise, Ge Yuzhu immediately jumped off the stool and trot over quickly.

One semester of university life seemed to have changed Xu Tonglu's temperament a bit. Looking back and seeing Xu Tongdao driving back, a smile appeared on Xu Tonglu's face, and he walked over unhurriedly.

This is the afternoon.

Without seeing his mother, Xu Tongdao asked after getting out of the car, "Where's mom? Isn't mom at home?"

Ge Yuzhu smiled with surprise, "Oh, mom is going to the vegetable market to buy meat and leeks, ready to make dumplings! Hey, brother, you come back today, will you not leave before the Chinese New Year? Can you have a good time with us this year? Years?"

"Big brother!" Xu Tonglu, who walked over with a smile, called out Xu Tongdao.

Seeing the smile on his face, Xu Tongdao was very pleased and nodded to him. He hadn't seen him for half a year. He noticed that the unruly expression on Xu Tonglu's face had faded a lot.

No longer like before, look at everyone with a cold eyebrow.

"Well, don't leave, I will spend three days with you this year."

Xu Tongdao casually answered his sister.

Strode to the back of the car, opened the trunk, greeted his younger brother and sister to come and help him carry the various new year goods he specially prepared in the trunk.

Including clothes, shoes, etc. bought for them.

The new year's goods he prepared this year are different from previous years.

There was a big herring, a whole ham, and two big turtles weighing two to three catties.

The big herring is dead.

But the big turtle is kept alive in the trunk of his car in plastic buckets.

These few things, he didn't spend any money, they were all produced in the villa of his business partner Yan Shijin, and they gave him New Year gifts for free.

This afternoon, because Xu Tongdao went home early, cheers and laughter rang out from time to time in the yard of their Xu family.

Mother Ge Xiaozhu bought back pork, leeks, dumpling skins and other things, and then asked the three children to start making dumplings.

Then, dumplings are also eaten for dinner.

The fresh dumplings taste great.

As he ate, Ge Xiaozhu slowly stopped his chopsticks, glanced across the faces of the three children, and suddenly shouted: "Xiaodao!"

Xu Tongdao heard the sound and turned to look at her, "Huh? Mom, what's the matter?"

He had noticed that his mother seemed to have something to say.

Xu Tonglu and Ge Yuzhu also looked over.

Ge Xiaozhu looked at them with a look of emotion, and opened his mouth and said: "Xiaodao, the days of our family in the past few years, the better, I think it should be your grandpa and grandma who are blessing us underground, look...or, During the Chinese New Year this year, you take Xiaolu and Yuzhu to the grave, give them food and drink, and burn more paper money by the way?"

Xu Tongdao was surprised that his mother suddenly said such a thing.

His grandfather and grandma passed away early. According to their custom, sacrifices to their ancestors during the New Year are all at home.

Only on Qingming Day every year, children and grandchildren have to go to the grave for sacrifice.

However, since the mother has spoken about this, the rural women of her generation believe that the ancestors will bless their children and grandchildren...

He also smiled ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and nodded in agreement, "Okay! Okay, Mom, then I will drive them back on the trail on the 30th morning of this year."

Xu Tonglu and Ge Yuzhu have no objection.

Seeing Xu Tongdao's agreement, Ge Xiaozhu's smile deepened, "Okay! Then I will prepare wine, food and sacrifices for you soon."

Xu Tongdao nodded, "Well, what do I need to buy, I'll buy it later."

...

It's a coincidence.

That night, when Xu Tongdao and his mother were watching TV in the living room, Ge Xiaoyu sent him a text message again.

——"Xiaodao, I heard Xu Tonglin say that you went home today, didn't you?"

Seeing this text message, Xu Tongdao remembered that a few days ago, when he was eating hot pot with Xu Changsheng and Xu Tonglin, Xu Tonglin asked him when he would go home this year. He seemed to have said that it was the twenty-eighth lunar month.

Unexpectedly, Ge Xiaoyu knew what he said casually at that time.
