The Xu family and the Chen family are on the second floor, at the right end of the corridor, two houses facing each other. The bathroom and toilet are at the other end of the stairs.
Everyone has the key to the house, so they open the door and go back to their own home.
There was no one at Xu Manman's home. Her father was riding his bicycle slowly and was still on the road. Her mother should still be at the factory, and her younger brother was probably out playing somewhere again.
The furnishings in the house were the most familiar ones in her memory. Even the furnishings in her room had not changed. Her parents did not give her room to her younger brother just because she was not at home.
The room is spotless. You can tell that it is cleaned regularly even when no one is there. The bedding on the bed is also fragrant and soft, just like the smell of home.
"Sister!" A tall and thin boy rushed in from outside.
"Boy, you've grown a lot taller." The 14-year-old boy is now a little taller than her. Boys in their twenties can still grow a lot. Judging from the trend, it will not be difficult for him to break through 1.8 meters.
"Sister, you're finally back. I missed you so much. I wanted to go pick you up, but Dad wouldn't let me."
Speaking of this, Xu Jianguo still felt a little aggrieved. If his father could take him to pick someone up, wouldn't he be able to see his sister earlier?
"We had a lot of luggage, and Dad's bicycle couldn't hold all of us, so my cousin and I took the bus back."
"Oh~, where did you come from just now? I've been waiting downstairs but didn't see anyone." He had been waiting in the house since early morning. He was waiting downstairs when his father went out to pick someone up. It was only when someone told him just now that he knew his sister had arrived home.
"Ah? I came from the west, maybe I got lost."
Looking at her brother's bright eyes, Xu Manman couldn't help but rub his head.
"My eldest cousin is also next door, let's go over and say hello."
Xu Jianguo nodded happily, and before leaving, he reminded her, "Sister, the kettle is full, you can use it directly when you want to wash up."
Xu Manman is a little bit of a germaphobe, and the whole family knows it. His father told him to prepare hot water before he went out.
"Okay, go ahead."
Although she took a quick shower in the space in the morning, Xu Manman still felt uncomfortable with her hair not washed for two or three days.
Fortunately, you can wash your hair and take a shower at home without having to go to the bathroom.
Xu Manman's father was a technician. When the houses were divided, he used his connections to get cement and renovated the two houses.
A part of the living room was separated to make a toilet and kitchen. Although it is very small and miniature, and two people can't even turn around, at least it makes life more convenient. I don't know how many families in the staff building envy it, and many people come to ask Dad Xu for advice.
When she opened the wardrobe, she saw a light red tweed coat on the top. Xu Manman had never seen it before she left. It must be a new piece of clothing prepared by her mother.
Xu Manman took the old clothes from the bottom, which were what she wore before she left.
She was the only girl among her younger generation. Not only did her parents like to dress her up, but her relatives also liked to buy her flowered cloth and hair ornaments. In addition, her family had two employees working in a textile factory, so they could get defective cloth processed internally from time to time. From childhood to adulthood, she had never lacked clothes.
Even his brother was lucky to have two new sets of clothes every year, but she could wear new clothes every month.
This wardrobe can only hold a small part of her things. There are two large boxes under her bed, which are full of her old clothes.
When she first went to the countryside, it was her uncle who wrote to her telling her to keep a simple and low profile, so he only packed a little for her to take with her.
After washing up and wrapping my hair, I came out and ran into Chen Meiyu who opened the door and came in. She was still talking to someone outside, "Mingming, come over here to eat later. Auntie bought some meat and I've already told your parents that dinner will be served here."
Chen Ming's voice came through the door, "Okay, aunt."
Chen Meiyu turned around and walked into the house, meeting Xu Manman's smiling face. "Oh, my little girl, you miss your mother so much." She put down the things in her hands, walked forward and hugged her daughter tightly.
"Mom, I miss you so much~", Xu Manman hugged her mother's waist and instinctively began to act coquettishly, her eyes turned red and began to cry.
Chen Meiyu gently stroked her daughter's back, "Dear girl, don't cry, don't cry, be careful not to hurt your eyes. Our dear girl is so pretty, if her eyes are swollen, she will not be beautiful, right?"
He still treats Xu Manman like a child.
Xu Manman put her face into her mother's shoulder. The separation from her family during the Chinese New Year last year was heartbreaking. She would never see her parents and brothers and sisters from her previous life again. The longing and grievances burst out at this moment, and her sobs turned into heartbroken tears.
