801: Feeling of Home
Yu Zhengxian looked at his innocent and cute little niece and smiled awkwardly:
"There's no fawn in here. Fawns are not allowed to be taken away casually these days. By the way, Fatty, is anyone home? Is your dad home?"
"My dad is not here. He and my grandpa are both at work. My mom, grandma, and my second and third brothers are at home."
"Then can you take me home?"
"Okay, I'll take you home!"
As she spoke, Pang Ya fearlessly took Yu Zhengxian's hand. Yu Zhengxian picked up the sack and luggage bag again and followed Pang Ya into the alley.
Arriving at the gate of a large courtyard with a red-painted wooden door, Pang Ya led him up the steps:
"Right here!"
As soon as he entered the courtyard, there was a dark corridor inside, and Yu Zhengxian suddenly felt a little scared.
He was dragged into the yard by Fatty:
"Mom, grandma, my uncle is here, my uncle is here!"
There was a running water pool in the middle of the yard. Cuihua was standing by the pool washing clothes. When she heard Pangya's shout, she looked up and said:
"All you do is have fun all day. Where did you go just now? Who the hell are you?"
Cuihua thought it was a neighbor in the alley. When she looked up and saw the people led by Pang Ya, the clothes in her hands fell into the basin again.
Cuihua stared blankly at the person who appeared in the yard for a long time, thinking she had seen the wrong person, but the person smiled at her:
"Cuihua."
Oh my god——
God!
"Brother?! Is it really you?"
"It's me."
Yu Zhengxian looked at Cuihua and saw that she was still as chubby as before, but after living in the capital for many years, she had completely become a city dweller and no longer had the rustic look she used to have.
Cuihua recognized Yu Zhengxian and ran into the house without saying anything, shouting in a changed voice:
"Mother!"
Cuihua rushed into the house. Xu Ying was sewing at the table in the main room, wearing reading glasses. When she heard Cuihua yelling, she frowned:
"What the hell are you yelling about? You're scaring the children."
There was a one-year-old boy lying on the small bed in the room. He was Cuihua and Yu Erye's third son.
Cuihua didn't care about her son or her mother-in-law's teachings, and shouted:
"Mom—Brother, brother is here!"
“——” Xu Ying didn’t understand who Cuihua was talking about as the “big brother” and raised his head.
At this time, Fatty stepped over the threshold first:
"Grandma, look, my old man from Northeast China who raises deer is here!"
Before he finished speaking, Yu Zhengxian's tall figure carrying a sack appeared at the door.
Xu Ying was also stunned when she saw her eldest son whom she hadn't seen for many years.
Yu Zhengxian put the sack and luggage bag on his shoulders on the ground and called out in a very stiff voice:
"mom."
"Boss?"
Xu Ying stared at her eldest son who suddenly appeared in front of her. If it weren't for Cuihua and Pang Ya, she would have thought that her eyes were blurry.
It turned out to be her eldest son?
She quickly put down her needlework, took off her reading glasses and stood up:
"I was wondering why my left eyelid kept twitching for the past few days, and I guessed something must be wrong. Turns out it's the boss!"
The surprise in Xu Yingwen's tone made Yu Zhengxian feel a little relieved, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Xu Ying walked up to her son and looked him up and down. After not seeing him for many years, her son had matured and aged, becoming more like Yu Jiahui. Xu Ying was overwhelmed with emotions:
"Boss, why are you here?"
Yu Zhengxian was still a little embarrassed:
"I came to the capital for something, so I stopped by to see—"
"——Come in and sit down."
“Hey.”
Fatty let go of Yu Zhengxian and ran to Xu Ying to claim credit:
"Grandma, I met the old man at the entrance of the alley and brought him in."
Xu Ying smiled and touched the fat girl's round pink face:
"Our Fatty is awesome!"
After saying this, he turned to Yu Zhengxian:
"Are you hungry?"
"No, I'm not hungry."
Xu Ying acted as if she hadn't heard anything and instructed Cuihua:
"Cuihua, go to the store at the entrance of the alley and buy two kilograms of fresh-cut noodles."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Cuihua turned and left.
When Fatty saw her mother was going to the store, she quickly followed her:
"Mom, I'm going with you!"
The little second one also jumped out from nowhere:
"Sister, I'm going too, I'm going too!"
Cuihua took her two children to buy noodles.
Yu Zhengxian looked at the second son's children with envy. The second son was the one who was really enviable as he had a wife and children all these years.
Yu Zhengxian was still watching Cuihua and the child go out, when Xu Ying stood up and poured water into the thermos:
"Go, wash your hands and face in the sink outside, and come over here to drink some hot water."
“Hey.”
Yu Zhengxian went outside to the sink, turned on the faucet, scooped up water to wash his face and hands, and returned outside. Xu Ying gave him a towel and asked him to wipe his face.
Yu Zhengxian was wiping his face, and Xu Ying took a duster and dusted him hard to remove the dust on him.
Somehow, each blow made him feel like he was back home.
Make him feel that he is welcome in this home.
All the bumps along the way are worth it.
All the worries along the way were brushed off like dust on my body.
After dusting off his body, Xu Ying looked up at his eldest son again, stared at him for several seconds, took the towel from his hand, and sighed:
"Go drink some hot water."
“Hey.”
Yu Zhengxian entered the room and picked up the enamel pot on the table. There were tea leaves in it. He blew on the tea leaves and took a sip of the tea. The tea was sweet and hot.
It goes all the way down my throat and makes me feel comfortable all over.
After drinking the water, he pointed to the sack and luggage bag beside him:
"Mom, these two packages, one is what Director Jiang asked me to bring to Director Zhou, and the other is what Lao Wu asked me to bring to you. They are all mountain products."
Xu Ying couldn't help but sigh:
"It's hard to believe they still care about us."
Xu Ying sat down next to him and looked at his eldest son again, his tone full of concern:
"How have you been these past few years?"
"fine."
Xu Ying looked at her eldest son with a vicissitudes of life on his face:
"You've aged a lot over the years."
"Mom, you too, you have white hair."
Xu Ying suddenly laughed, and Yu Zhengxian also laughed.
The two smiled, and the estrangement between mother and son that had not existed for many years disappeared in an instant.
At this time, Cuihua bought some fresh noodles and handed two kilograms of fresh noodles to Xu Ying.
Xu Yingdao:
"Wait, mom will make you some noodles with soybean paste."
“Hey.”
"Fatty, help grandma peel the garlic."
"oh!"
Xu Ying went to the kitchen outside to cook.
Cuihua stood by, looking at her uncle who had come from afar with tears in her eyes. It seemed that her uncle had aged ten years in these years. Cuihua wiped her tears and said:
"Brother, you have suffered a lot over the years."
"No," Yu Zhengxian looked at the three little ones again, "Cuihua, you're amazing. You gave birth to so many."
Cuihua forced a smile out of embarrassment and touched her belly again:
"Little Four is still in my belly."
“——”
"Come on, second son, third son, call me master."
Cuihua called the second and third children over to recognize this old man.
Fatty pulled a head of garlic from the corridor outside, held the garlic, sat at the table and peeled the garlic while chasing the old man to ask about raising deer.
Soon, Xu Ying's noodles with soybean paste were ready.
After living in Beijing for several years, Xu Ying has learned how to make authentic Beijing noodles with soybean sauce. Two large bowls of noodles were served, which were colorful, fragrant and delicious. Half a bottle of meat sauce was specially put on top. The greedy Pang Ya, Xiao Erzi and Xiao Sanzi stared at the noodles with their mouths drooling.
