After the party, the family's life returned to normal.
In a blink of an eye, the Spring Festival of 1981 arrived.
The family got a TV, and my grandparents and eldest brother and his family came to Ancheng again to celebrate the Spring Festival.
My second brother and his family are here too.
Ye Linxing was drifting in the sea that day. Not only did he not go home for the Spring Festival, he didn't even get to have the army's reunion dinner.
He didn't come back until the afternoon of the eighth day after the seventh day of the New Year.
It was raining when I got home and the gate was not closed but open.
There were quite a lot of people coming to pay New Year's greetings to the two elders. Since the second day of the New Year, the gate of their house has never been closed during the day.
Juanjuan and Quanquan are more than ten months old. Kids of this age can't stay at home.
Although he can't walk yet, he can crawl very quickly.
In addition, Shuyan and his brothers are all at home, and their biological brother Doudou is also there, so these two little guys are eager to make trouble.
Just look, when Ye Linxing arrived home, the seven little guys were sitting in a row from tallest to shortest on the veranda, watching the rain coming down from the eaves.
Everyone has a furry child by their side. Jian Zhengzhong, who is responsible for taking care of them, has a cat lying on his legs and another cat hanging on his shoulder.
Hearing the footsteps, nine furry creatures, one big and seven small, all looked over.
Ye Linxing paused, feeling suddenly panicked.
In a moment of excitement, he smiled and waved to everyone.
"Hello, is anyone home?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he wanted to slap himself. What kind of nonsense was this? He was clearly going home, so why did he act like he was visiting relatives?
It's still the kind of unfamiliar relative you haven't seen for eight hundred years, someone you've only heard of but never seen in person.
"Did you mess up your brain while sailing?"
Jian Zhengzhong looked at him like he was stupid, then turned around and yelled at the top of his lungs, "Come here, sister! Your man's brain has been ruined by the seawater."
Ye Linxing had a question mark look on his face. Is this his biological brother?
"What? Is Old Ye crazy?"
Jian Yuelan, who was cutting Chinese medicine for Jian's father with a knife in the house, was panicked and rushed out with the knife in hand.
Jian Zhengnan shouted, "Zhizhi, put the knife down."
It's not nice to rush out with a knife in hand.
Jian Yuelan didn't hear it. Her mind and eyes were full of Old Ye's injury, so she rushed out and he hurriedly chased after her.
Then, he saw his sister pulling her brother-in-law around in circles to watch.
"Old Ye, are you really injured?"
Ye Linxing was feeling so desperate now. He looked at his second brother and a few other kids who were happily eating melon seeds with a look of spectator joy, and then he looked at his elders who had indescribable expressions on their faces.
Finally, his gaze fell on Jian Yuelan's face, who looked anxious and worried.
"I'm not hurt!"
He said weakly, "I just missed you guys so much that I said something inappropriate."
Jian Yuelan was silent for two seconds, "What did you say?"
"Dad asked if anyone was home."
The child took over and Ye Linxing remained silent.
After not seeing him for a while, his son's skills in smashing his pots have become better and better, and he doesn't even give him any face at all.
"There were so many of us, and Dad saw it all, and he even asked if anyone was home. It's hard to judge!"
The child shook his head, unable to figure out what was going on in his father's mind.
Ye Linxing wiped his face helplessly, "Son, I just said it, I just had a brain seizure."
"No matter if you have a seizure or not, let's go inside first!"
Jian Yuelan pulled him into the house, and the children followed immediately.
The brother and sister Juanjuan and Quanquan were very curious about their father and stared at him with their big black eyes.
"Juanjuan, do you still recognize your father?"
Grandma picked up the little girl whose hair was getting curly and pointed at Ye Linxing.
The man looked at his little girl with sparkling eyes and stretched out his hand to her, "Daddy, give me a hug?"
The little girl looked at Jian Yuelan, and when she nodded, she opened her little hand and jumped into her grandmother's arms.
“Pah!”
"Hey, our Juanjuan can call daddy now?"
Ye Linxing was holding the little girl and smiling like a flower. She couldn't stand it anymore and screamed at the top of her lungs. I would also shout, "Why don't you hug me?"
"Our Quanquan can do it too. He can call me daddy too."
The man who took the ring from his second brother's arms, holding his daughter in his left hand and his son in his right, looked down at his eldest son and said, "Comrade Ye Tunan!"
"dad!"
The child, who had grown a lot taller, tilted his little face up and smiled at his father. His eyes seemed to be filled with stars, and his gaze at him was full of anticipation.
"You take good care of mom and the others. Dad is proud of you!"
"It's what I should do."
"Um."
He responded softly and began to call people one by one.
From great-grandmother, grandparents, Dad Jian and others to Shuyan and his family, the furry children in the family have not been forgotten.
After one round, my mouth was dry.
“Drink water!”
Grandma brought over a glass of water. Ye Linxing, who was sitting on a chair holding the child, quickly handed the ring to the grandfather next to her, but her daughter was reluctant to give it to him.
He held the baby in his arms, took the cup with his free hand and drank half of it before thanking his grandmother.
"You're welcome. Are you hungry?"
“A little.”
I was so busy rushing back that I didn't have time to eat.
So what are you waiting for? Let’s prepare the food and eat.
Two hours later, three tables were set up in the living room of the house, one for adults, one for children, and one for the elderly, and everyone sat down to eat.
The women and children finished eating first, while the men were not in a hurry to leave the table. They drank some wine and chatted while eating.
As they chatted, Jian Zhengzhong started talking about his work.
"There's no future in this. I don't want to do this anymore. What do you think about me starting my own business?"
Grandpa took a sip of wine and said slowly, "Just do whatever you want to do. Lack of money and people won't be a big problem."
