The warm sun shines through the window, gently onto the spacious and bright living room of the Mu family.
The three siblings, Mu Siwen, Mu Sihuai and Mu Yushang, sat on the soft sofa. On the coffee table in front of them were several cups of steaming hot tea. The aroma of tea curled up, adding a bit of comfort to the warm atmosphere.
Mu Yuchang blinked her bright eyes, full of curiosity and anticipation, and was the first to break the silence: "Brother, brother, I heard that the elder sister of the Lin family will also come back with us this time. What do you think she will be like? Mom said that she is very good, and she was taught by several grandparents together."
As she spoke, she gestured with her hands, and her words were full of longing for the sister of the Lin family whom she had never met.
Mu Sihuai raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile, picked up the teacup and took a sip, teasing: "Little girl, your curiosity is almost overflowing. However, to be noticed by those old men and taught carefully, I think you must be extraordinary."
There was a hint of amusement in his tone, and he couldn't help but imagine what the Lin family sister looked like in his mind.
Mu Siwen listened quietly to the conversation between his younger brother and sister, tapping lightly on the armrest of the sofa with his slender fingers.
He nodded slightly, a hint of curiosity flashing in his deep eyes: "It's not easy to be recognized by those old men. I'm also very curious about what kind of extraordinary qualities this sister of the Lin family has."
His voice was low and magnetic. Under his calm appearance, he was looking forward to his first meeting with the little girl from the Lin family.
The sun gradually sets in the west, but the discussions in the living room continue.
The three siblings chatted with each other, guessing Lin Zhiyue's personality, hobbies, and even imagining the scene when they first met.
In their hearts, the upcoming Lin Zhiyue is like a mystery full of mystery, waiting for them to uncover.
A few days passed quietly in the midst of exhaustion and anticipation.
Lin Weidong and his family were sitting in the car on their way back to Beijing. The scenery outside the car window flew by quickly. Lin Zhiyue held his grandmother's hand tightly, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar street scenes of Kyoto, feeling mixed emotions.
Finally, the car slowly drove into the military compound.
The courtyard still looks the same as I remember, with towering trees with intertwined branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadows, and the stone paths clean and tidy.
The car stopped steadily in front of the familiar house, and the family got out one by one. Lin Weidong looked up at the house in front of him, his eyes slightly red, and he was filled with emotion: "We are finally back, this is our home."
Everyone walked into the house. Although no one had lived in it for a long time, it was spotlessly clean. It was obvious that someone had prepared it in advance.
Lin Weidong turned around, with a gentle smile on his face, and said to the people he was traveling with, "Let's go, everyone, come to my place first. We haven't seen each other for so many years, we need to get together."
As he spoke, he looked at his son and ordered, "Go and tell them to come back for dinner tonight so that everyone can have fun together."
Then, he pulled Lin Zhiyue over, his eyes full of love: "Zhiyue, I'll introduce you to everyone tonight. Our family can finally be reunited."
Lin Zhiyue nodded slightly, feeling both nervous and expectant. Thinking about meeting her many relatives soon, a sense of belonging arose spontaneously.
Inside the house, everyone was packing their luggage and sharing what they had seen on the road. Laughter and joy echoed in every corner. The once deserted house was instantly filled with vitality and warmth, as if they wanted to make up for the reunion time they had missed over the years.
Not long after, a familiar sound of footsteps came closer and closer, and the guard Xiao Li and the nanny Aunt Wang hurried back.
Xiao Li was agile and walked briskly, with an anxious look on his face. When he saw Lin Weidong, he immediately stood at attention, straightened his body, raised his hand and saluted in a standard military salute. His voice was loud and full of excitement that could not be concealed: "Commander, you are finally back! We have been looking forward to your and your family's safe return every day, and you are finally back!"
The saluting hand did not drop for a long time, and there was a gleam of joy in the eyes, as if telling of the longing and concern during this period of time.
Aunt Wang walked quickly to Lin Weidong, with a friendly smile on her face, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were full of joy: "Commander, you have worked hard all the way! I have been looking forward to your return. This family always feels empty without you."
As she spoke, she reached out to take the luggage from Lin Weidong's hand. Her movements were skillful and natural, and her eyes were full of concern. Then she was busy looking at other people, muttering, "Come in, come in, you must be exhausted from the journey."
The enthusiasm of Xiao Li and Aunt Wang instantly warmed up the atmosphere in the house. The fatigue from the long journey was dispelled by the warm welcome, and the faces of the family were filled with happy smiles.
After learning the news that her daughter had returned, Wen Yu's heart was instantly grasped by an invisible hand, and she was filled with the desire to see her daughter immediately.
She fidgeted in the office and became distracted from the work in her hands.
Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer, so she hurriedly asked for leave from her boss and rushed home in a hurry.
Along the way, Wen Yu's mind was filled with her daughter's figure. Imagining what her daughter looked like now, her eyes unconsciously became moist.
Just as I arrived at the doorstep, before I could even open it, the voice filled with longing and love came in: "Daughter, daughter!"
Lin Lang, who was in the house, heard his wife's voice, immediately put down what he was holding, and ran out to greet her.
His face was full of smiles, and he shouted, "Wife!"
But in Wen Yu's eyes at this moment, it seemed that there was only the daughter who made her dream. She didn't even look at Lin Lang, and rushed straight towards the only little girl in the room like an arrow.
Wen Yu stood quietly in front of Lin Zhiyue like a sculpture, with tears of excitement flashing in her eyes, like crystal pearls, her hands trembling slightly, and her voice choked with sobs, like a yellow oriole singing out of a valley: "My daughter, you are my daughter, and I am your mother."
Her eyes were full of love and care, as if they were a pool of gentle spring water, pouring all the companionship she had missed over the years to her daughter like a tide at this moment.
Lin Zhiyue looked at the strange yet familiar mother in front of her, and a warm current like a hot spring surged in her heart. Her eyes couldn't help but moisten, like ripe cherries. She whispered, "Mom."
This word "Mom" was like the warmest breeze in spring, blowing gently into Wenyu's heart.
Wen Yu quickly responded, hugging Lin Zhiyue tightly in her arms as if she had found a treasure. She held her tightly, as if she was a rare treasure. She was afraid that if she let go, her daughter would disappear like the fragile glass. She murmured to herself, "My precious daughter, I finally got you back."
