Chapter 7 Warm, Home

There is a kind of emotion called being close to the hometown.

When the train slowly drove into Meicheng, an autumn rain poured down, and the raindrops hit the window of the car, and the city seen through the window still did not feel strange. The area near the train track, It is always the most difficult and least willing area to develop in a city. Most of the old buildings or bungalow areas here are still there.

After one autumn rain and one cold, when Chen Hao got off the train with his suitcase, a gust of cold wind hit him, and instantly he regained the feeling of being in the Northeast, the feeling of his hometown.

The crude train station, the refurbished platform that still can’t keep up with the development, the old-fashioned dilapidated exit with iron gates, the voices of track car drivers and small hotel employees can be heard far away, even No matter how big the wind and rain are, it can't stop the pace of supporting the family. It would be annoying to see these people on weekdays, but when you look through the exit and see them outside in the wind and rain, Chen Hao no longer hates them. It's not easy to eat for a living.

"Xiao Hao, Xiao Hao!"

Close to the big iron gate that was not opened, a slightly aged dark face jumped into Chen Hao's sight, the elder brother-in-law Ma Defu.

"Big brother-in-law." Chen Hao waved his arm, and a bright smile appeared on his face. In this world, apart from blood relationship, this man is undoubtedly the one closest to him.

Meicheng is a small station, but here is a transportation hub. There are many people who get off the train, and some people don’t want to go out and make phone calls on the platform. After all, there is a shed above the head to protect the rainstorm. When you go out, you have to make a choice immediately. When getting into the taxi, relatives and friends still came to pick him up, so there were quite a lot of people and the queue was not long. Chen Hao walked out of Meicheng Railway Station very quickly.

"Quick, give me something." Ma Defu handed an open umbrella to Chen Hao, and went to take the big suitcase. Chen Hao hid for a while, but did not refuse his brother-in-law's help, and took the lighter computer box Handed it to him.

Ma Defu obviously paused, but said nothing, picked up the suitcase and led the way: "My car will stop in front."

Limped.

Looking at his brother-in-law walking with uneven shoulders on both sides, Chen Hao sighed secretly, and quickly followed up. The slightly lame brother-in-law, when the eldest sister married him, no one would believe that she didn't help the family. Because the family was in the most difficult time, the blind date was settled once. With a gift money of 10 yuan, this old-looking man who was slightly lame married his beautiful eldest sister.

Good luck depends on misfortune, and misfortune depends on blessing.

When the days get better, in the eyes of the neighbors around, finding such a man may be the happiest thing in my life. Although my brother-in-law is a little bit reluctant sometimes, as long as my sister says it, he will do it , including the fact that taking care of my father-in-law is more attentive than taking care of my own family.

A very dilapidated old-fashioned Honda automatic transmission car, which is my brother-in-law's car, the model Chen Hao does not recognize, the car is really like the sketch mentioned, a second-hand car with nine hands, or even more than nine hands, there is no way, left With a slight limp in his feet, Ma Defu can only drive a car with automatic transmission, so he can only choose the cheapest one that suits his use.

After getting in the car, blocking the wind and rain, Ma Defu started the car, turned on the heater, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Hao, is it cold, come on, have a cigarette."

There is also a very strong smell in the car, which is mixed with the smell of smoke and the sweat of some workers who have sweated on their clothes for many years, as well as the obvious smell of working tools and materials. Apart from farming, Ma Defu usually Lisha Dabai, a plumber, and an electrician can all do it, and the smell left in the car is directly related to his work.

Along the way, brother-in-law and brother-in-law smoked and chatted. Ma Defu never said a word about what his family thinks of you, what his parents think of you, and what your sister thinks of you. It can be heard that he is foreshadowing. It is to let myself be able to perform well after returning home, and not to conflict with family members.

"The life at home is getting better, the land on the east mountain is occupied, and the compensation is given, so Dad built a new house. This home is much more beautiful..."

"My parents asked your sister and me to have a child. In the spring of next year, you will be an uncle..."

"Your second sister is also very good. Now she is a nurse, one night a day and one night off. It's about her boyfriend. It makes my parents worry..."

As soon as Ma Defu said it, and Chen Hao heard it, the wanderer returned home, and the relatives naturally picked it up and said, what is the real situation, just eight points of the letter is enough.

Chen Hao's home is located in a village around Meicheng. With the development of the city, it used to be the most normal but ordinary countryside. Now it has reached the edge of the city. The hills hundreds of meters away to the east have been pushed to cover the road. , now it only takes less than 2 minutes to drive from their home to reach the outer ring road of the city.

The torrential rain stopped before Chen Hao arrived home, the sun came out, and the rainbow after the rain hung in the sky. The brand-new big iron gate was three meters wide on half a side, with a large yard and four rooms larger than the main house, built on a concrete platform one meter higher than the ground. On the top, the construction of new-style bungalows is like this, and there are two houses on both sides. Both the house and the ground are newly repaired. The house, like the house at the end of the high place, has a few bright windows and is habitable.

Hearing the sound of the car, two women came out of the room, and quickly walked down the steps to meet them. Behind them, there was a half-grown old man in clothes, standing at the door with a cigarette in his mouth. He stepped forward to greet him, but Chen Hao also saw it clearly. When he came out, he walked in a hurry, and he didn't put on his shoes until he reached the door.

"Mom, big sister."

"Hey, I'm back. Hurry up and get in the house. It's warm in the house and cool outside." A typical image of a rural woman in Northeast China, she's already aged just over fifty. Qiao Xinmei smiled when she saw her son come back. He opened it, held his son's hand and did not let go, and pulled it straight into the room.

The young woman next to Qiao Xinmei also exudes a sense of simplicity, and her once tender and beautiful face has gradually lost its luster in the devastation of working in the field, but at this time the special brilliance on her face is her. Added a few touches of beauty again, the beauty brought by mother's love, a slightly bulging belly, if you live in the city, it is very precious, but in the country, it is a lot of money to go to work in the fields after eight or nine months of pregnancy It's a common thing, so Chen Xueyu's move to welcome the slippery ground didn't make anyone feel anything.

"Eldest sister, be careful, you must pay attention in the future, don't be flabbergasted." Chen Hao took the elder sister's arm and used his body to support her. If a foot slipped, his strength was enough for a The arm can support the eldest sister.

Qiao Xinmei and Chen Xue had the same reaction as Ma Defu who saw Chen Hao at the train station. They both froze for a moment, with smiles on their faces. They felt the same when they met each other when they were unhappy and when they met.

"Dad, I'm back."

Seeing his father Chen Yuanping in clothes standing at the door, Chen Hao greeted him, but compared to before, he either bowed his head to hide or forced himself to laugh. This time, Chen Hao smiled from the bottom of his heart.

"Yeah." Chen Yuanping hummed, turned and went back to the house. He is the most typical husband and father image of the head of a family in the Northeast countryside. At home, he must be consistent and majestic. There are three mothers, Chen Yu, and they don't think they resemble Chen Hao. When you see Chen Yuanping, you don't need to say it. The strength of a man, Chen Yuanping was not at the right time in his life. At that time, his small eyes and single eyelid appearance made him tall and tall, and matchmakers didn’t have much to boast about. Chen Hao was lucky. This is an era when men’s small eyes are popular , so his sharp-edged face and slender eyes with single eyelids, which are very popular nowadays, are not what Gao Hongbo thinks ugly men dare not show up. If he knew Gao Hongbo thought so, he would have met him in Yanjing.
