Chen Jianguo, carrying a large bag and another bag in his hand, walked directly to the center of the county town after getting off the train.
I changed trains twice on the way and it took almost three days to reach the county town where I grew up.
Looking at the familiar streets, Chen Jiaguo's pace unconsciously quickened.
When Chen Jianguo arrived in the village, it was already past sunset and most villagers were having dinner at home.
Seeing that there were not many people around, Chen Jianguo went straight home.
When I was walking to my house at the end of the village, I was about to push the door open and go in, but I remembered something and looked to the side.
A new gate was opening wide. I turned my feet and walked to the gate.
There are two fruit trees on the left side of the door, one looks like an apricot tree, and the other one cannot be seen.
There is a small vegetable garden on the east side, with green vegetables just sprouting, and onions and garlic seedlings growing well. There are no weeds, it is clean and tidy, and you can see the care taken by the owner.
Looking along the direction of the house, there are three rooms, the middle is the door, and the left should be the rooms, each room has glass.
The aisle was paved with stone slabs carefully.
Although the house is made of adobe, the roof is covered with tiles, which is much better than the ordinary thatched adobe roof.
This should be the house built by my daughter-in-law.
Chen Jianguo touched his chest, where were photos of his wife and daughter.
Looking at the tidy, clean and bright home, I began to like Su Xia more and more.
When we were getting married, my parents kept urging us to get married.
Second, I am indeed old.
Third, when I saw Su Xia for the first time, although she seemed a little arrogant at the time, she was indeed the most beautiful girl I had ever seen.
The day after the wedding, he left in a hurry, feeling sorry for this strange wife all the time.
So after I became pregnant, my parents wrote to me saying that they wanted to separate the family, and I also agreed.
Before, every time my mother sent a letter, she complained that my wife was spoiled, did nothing, couldn't talk, and was a loner.
But it has disappeared since a year ago. Before that, Su Xia's letter felt like a subordinate reporting to his leader.
Since his wife started sending telegrams a year ago, he could gradually feel Xu's warmth in Su Xia's letters every time.
Later, with the addition of my daughter, this feeling became stronger and stronger.
Chen Jianguo took a deep breath and walked down the corridor. When he was almost in the living room, he heard the voice of a cheerful little girl.
I stopped unconsciously and followed the sound.
Then I saw a little girl with two braids and wearing short-sleeved cropped pants coming through the door on the west wall.
He was jumping up and down, humming a nursery rhyme he had never heard of before.
Niu Niu is preparing to go home for dinner.
When I skipped to my yard, I saw a tall and dark uncle standing in the yard.
He stopped and bent his head to look at the man who was carrying a bag on his back and another bag in his hand.
Curiously, I asked, "Uncle, who are you? Are you here to get water from my house?"
Chen Jianguo has been staring at Niu Niu since he saw her. The child is even prettier than in the photo. Her arms and legs are strong and solid, not at all like the skinny children he had seen before.
I am not afraid when I see the child looking at me. She is worthy of being my daughter. She is very brave.
Seeing that I didn't answer, his eyes turned around and observed me, and his calves turned towards the old house.
This child is more clever than expected and knows how to run to where there are many people.
Chen Jianguo squatted down, and this time the two people's vision was balanced.
"How do you know I'm here to get water? Do many people come to your house to get water?"
Seeing that this person wanted to get closer for no reason, Niu Niu decided not to call her grandpa and the others.
"Humph... Of course. My well has the most water in the village. People in the village come to my house to fetch water every day."
Niu Niu has always been proud of this. She thinks her own water is the best to drink, otherwise why would so many people come here every day.
Chen Jiaguo thought about it. He had been suffering from drought all the way here, but when he entered the village and saw that the crops were growing well, he thought there was no drought in his hometown.
It turns out that it was watered all the time.
I know that my family built a house, but I am not sure about digging a well. It seems that my wife asked someone to dig it herself.
Niuniu looked at the strange man and said, "Hey...you haven't told me who you are yet? What are you doing in my house?"
Chen Jianguo listened to his daughter's tone, and the corners of his mouth twitched a little. This seemed different from the little cotton-padded jacket he had imagined.
"I'm your father!" Chen Jianguo said bluntly.
When Niu Niu heard this, she was stunned for a moment.
Then he opened the door and ran to the kitchen, shouting, "Mom...
Mom, come out quickly. There's a strange person coming to our house. He says he's my dad. Can you please come out and take a look? ”
Su Xia was serving food in the kitchen. When she heard Niu Niu's scream, she was so scared that she dropped the spoon.
"What the hell, Dad..."
She didn't even have time to take off her apron. When she came out of the kitchen, she saw the kid running towards her and hugging her thighs.
"Mom... look, that man said he's my dad."
Niu Niu hugged her mother and started to complain. She thought she was very smart. The stories her mother told were about children being sold, and she lied that they were her parents or were being taken to find her parents.
As he said this he glared at the strange man.
Chen Jianguo was stunned by his daughter's actions. Normally, after hearing that her father has returned, shouldn't a child hug herself and cry excitedly?
I never thought that my daughter would complain to her mother after hearing it, as if I was a bad person, and would say that I was the father when I saw the child.
Su Xia was also wondering who would recognize Chen Jianguo as her father since he was so far away and couldn't come back. Her first thought was the human trafficker, and she came out without thinking anything else.
Holding Niu Niu, he looked at the person who came in warily.
Su Xia looked at it for a while and felt it was becoming more and more familiar.
"Damn, isn't this the legendary Chen Jianguo? He is my ATM, my bread and butter, and my boss."
Su Xia didn't know what to do. There was no sign at all. It seemed that she was not ready yet.
Chen Jianguo saw his wife staring at him blankly. For the first time, he found that his wife was a little silly.
"I'm back, just in time for the holiday so I won't wait until the New Year."
Su Xia finally reacted.
There are more natural expressions. He is just a man. Think about it, I was 35 a year ago. Although I am not married, I have to have a boyfriend!
Besides, relatively speaking, I am still an old cow eating young grass. Looking at Chen Jianguo, who is about 1.8 meters tall and looks thin, you can tell from the blue veins on his arms that he is tougher than imagined.
The face shape is tough, with a full forehead, sharp eyebrows, not particularly big eyes, a high nose bridge, and ordinary lips.
Although he is not the popular young and fresh meat in later generations, he is a mature man, not bad, and he is a good match for me.
Su Xia thought a lot in an instant, and prepared herself mentally.
I put Niu Niu down and sat there for a while because my arm started to hurt.
"You didn't even tell me you were coming back. If I don't have time to write you a letter, a telegram will do."
Su Xia complained quietly and walked over to help put the things away.
"Are you hungry? You'll be eating soon. Put your food in the living room first and tidy it up after you finish eating."
Niu Niu looked at her mother in confusion as she went up to talk to the weirdo and helped to carry things.
She shouted at Su Xia with a bit of grievance: "Mom, who is this weirdo? Why are you talking to a bad guy?"
As he said this, he walked forward and pulled Su Xia away from this weirdo.
Su Xia now really regretted telling those stories when she had nothing to do.
She put Niuniu in front of Chen Jianguo and said, "She looks pretty good. This is your father. Didn't you write to me last time and ask your father to come back and celebrate with you?"
As he said this, he glared at Chen Jianguo and said, "It's all your fault. You didn't even say hello when you came back. Look how scared the child is. I think you are a beggar."
When Niuniu heard this, she looked at this person and thought, "Could it really be my father?"
Chen Jianguo was also speechless. If it was true, why would he ask her so many questions and just take her away.
"Are you really my father? Are you back to see me and mom?" Niu Niu asked anxiously.
Chen Jianguo walked forward and carefully held his daughter's small body.
Looking closely at my daughter's little face, it seems that the bridge of her nose looks like mine, but everything else looks like my wife.
She is pretty even now, and she will be prettier than her mother when she grows up.
Touching the little face, he said, "Well, I am your father. I am back to have sex with Niuniu. What do you say?"
When Niu Niu knew it was true, tears fell from her eyes like beads and she hugged Chen Jianguo's neck excitedly with her arms.
"Wow………
Wow……
Dad, you're finally back. Mom and I missed you so much. ”
Su Xia looked at the excited woman, thinking about crying too, so she pinched her thigh lightly with her little hand. Uh... it hurt a little, and her eyes should be red.
Well, that's it. Then he turned to the father and daughter who were talking to each other: "Okay, let's eat first, and then we can keep in touch after dinner."
Sorry, Su Xia is still the same.
