The uncle accompanied the little girlfriend home to the New Year's Pass

On the morning of the twenty-ninth day of the New Year, she gladly went to the company for the last day of work before the Spring Festival holiday as usual, and today she was wearing a snow-white down coat that could brighten the blind eyes, and the lower body was black cotton thin leg pants, and the legs were long and thin, like a crane, so that people clearly knew how graceful and beautiful her figure was.

The office was well heated, and she took off her coat, which was not a sweater with a pullover as usual, but a plush soft cotton coat with buttons in red and white, which made her look a little more like the children of the neighbor. She had just cut her hair yesterday, and cut her long shawl hair into short hair close to her neck, which looked shrewd and capable, and had a more beautiful mature beauty. This made her original student atmosphere much less. What is even more charming is her well-dressed face, the original foundation is good, this is even more immaculate, the pink snow white face is a pair of Dan phoenix eyes watery, a casual look will make people have a lot of reverie.

When the people in the same office saw it, they all widened their eyes in surprise and said, "Gladly, so beautiful, it's a fairy!" Shyly blushed to the base of his neck and sat down at his desk and buried his head in the pile of clothes.

Finally, almost noon, she walked into Zhou Ming's office, saw that he was still looking down at something, she knocked softly on the door, Zhou Ming saw her, immediately stood up, and did not shy away from reaching out his warm hand to hold her soft little hand in the palm of his hand and gently rub it. Looking at her haircut in amazement, she looked at him shyly.

From the joy of life overflowing from her body to the thousands of styles of mature women, the cute appearance simply made Zhou Ming love to the bone. While admiring it, he exclaimed, "It's even more beautiful to know early on that you cut your hair!" He couldn't help but reach out and touch the ends of her hair, the dark hair that had been softly lowered and slightly curved and burned like satin smooth.

Gladly did not shy away, looking at his thick eyebrows with a smile on his face, when his eyes intersected, it was like the focus of physics that used a magnifying glass to aggregate sunlight, and the heat was growing rapidly. If it weren't for the office, Zhou Ming would have been unable to help but hold Xinran in his arms.

Although their business has been known to the company colleagues, it is after all in the office place. Xinran was also afraid that he would do something too radical, pushed away his gradually approaching body, and smiled graciously: "Go away, don't come over, I want to say serious things." Then he added as if explaining: "It's not good to see people!" ”。 At this moment, the two people felt at the same time, if no one saw it, wouldn't it be enough!

Zhou Ming still said in disbelief: "When you see it, you see it, no one will say anything!" ”

Gladly ignoring him and pushing him back, Zhou Ming smiled and sat back down at his desk. At this time, he said happily: "Tomorrow is going to be a holiday, I want to go home to see my mother, and I will say something to you." Zhou Ming had been thinking about this matter for many days, and now that he was about to come, he was even more frightened, like a bird that had been shot with a gun. The tone lost the usual meeting, and he said, "Then what should I do, I will go there for the New Year?" ”

"You go back to your house, your sons and daughters are at home, the family is happy and harmonious, by the way, and your ex-wife, don't you also live together, what a good thing, a big reunion!" 」 Gladly quipped to him.

Zhou Ming's hateful teeth itched: "That is my heart in vain, the road we have walked together has gone in vain, how else do you test me, don't toss me okay?" The tone turned from high to low, and the back was almost begging.

Seeing this, Xinran was happy and satisfied, although she was only twenty-six years old, but the ups and downs she and Zhou Ming had walked together in the past two years made her very confident, and she was fully able and worthy of entrusting everything to him. However, she could not believe that Zhou Ming, a middle-aged man in his forties who had suffered from wind and frost, could not believe that he could spend with her very resolutely on the day of the Spring Festival, a family reunion. Her heart is longing, she also wants to spend a good full moon, she also wants to keep a good year with the person she loves most, the Spring Festival is in the heart of the Chinese, why not look forward to the reunion of the whole family? She and her mother have passed many lonely years, and her mother is also eager for her to bring back a man who can be entrusted for life, and be satisfied for her happiness.

However, she was not sure whether Zhou Ming, who valued family affection, could go home with her at the time of the Spring Festival. So ask him today and see his attitude. But when she saw Zhou Ming's performance, she smiled comfortably, turned around, and went outside, and after Yu Guang saw Zhou Ming's angry and corrupt appearance, her heart was sweeter than honey.

As she approached the door, she turned around and grimaced, "But... However, the company sent a lot of New Year's things, I can't move, you send me back to my mother's house! Saying that he would not turn his head back, he walked away, leaving Zhou Ming, who was like a wooden chicken.

Xinran's appearance was extremely loved, and Zhou Ming really wanted to rush up and grab her! The things sent to her by the company for the New Year were originally placed on Zhou Ming's car, and she asked Zhou Ming to send her home, which was not a knowing question!

After Zhou Ming heard Xinran's last words, he jumped up from his seat excitedly, and at this moment his mood was like the tide of the Qiantang River overturning the river, a wave higher than a wave, a tide higher than a tide, almost about to break the embankment. The mind is cloud-like, and it is like being at the top of Mount Taishan, and after the clouds drift away, there is a freshness of walking in the sky without the slightest fear, realizing the feeling of life. For a while, it was like being on the Top of the Three Gorges Boat of the Yangtze River descending from the rapids, and the apes on both sides of the strait could not stop crying, and the light boat had passed the happiness of the Ten Thousand Heavy Mountains!

He told himself inwardly: "Finally, finally, gladly admitting himself, allowing himself to go back to see her mother, what is this, this is a new chapter in the realization of himself in life, this is another beautiful beginning in the life of a man in his forties." From this time on, he and his little lover are happy to face their loved ones together! This is something that many men dream of. For this moment, he had waited for more than two years, and from the moment he first met Xinran, he had had this idea, but then he immediately denied his dream-like delusion, after all, the twenty-year-old age gap had discouraged him, and he felt that he was delusional. But his personality of not accepting defeat made him never give up, so he had the heart to have more contact with Xinran, let her understand him as a person, especially in the past two years, many things experienced together, they were born into death and spent together, the two hearts are like the two poles of the magnet, gradually approaching, and finally tightly fitted together, this feeling is not exchanged for how much money can not be exchanged, and today is finally a dream come true, is this not another goal for him to achieve life? He had reason to rejoice, and he sang and danced in the office, singing and dancing. The colleagues who saw him were surprised and came forward to ask about the situation, and everyone was also infected, and used applause to motivate him to bless him. After all, they have witnessed Zhou Ming and the joy of loving the year, and they are also sincerely happy that they can be combined!

The next day, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhou Ming cleaned up, up and down, and came to wait for her outside the community that she was happy to rent. Today, in order to meet Xinran's mother, I will leave a good impression. He went to the stylist last night to pack his hairstyle, and then today he wore a dark sweatshirt, a black wool coat on the outside, and gray light cotton running shoes on his feet. He was originally tall and thin, with a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, and after cleaning up a new one, he looked even more imposing and energetic, and he appeared to be in his thirties.

But the little girl is flooded again, want to sleep lazily, Zhou Ming phone call, WeChat message, she just does not return, harm him and think a lot. Parked the car on the street outside the community, went upstairs to find her, knocked on the door for half a day, and gladly lazily asked across the door whether it was him, and he put his mind at ease.

Fei Jiao said in a squeamish voice: "Oh, who let you get up so early, people want to sleep more, you go to the supermarket to buy some souvenirs for my mother and pick me up again!" In a commanding tone, Zhou Ming was really happy in his heart and immediately said, "Yes, yes, yes!" He turned around and went downstairs to do what he said happily.

Finally, after gladly washing, dressing up is more than eleven o'clock, gladly went downstairs and walked on the street, the eyebrows were full of happiness, Zhou Ming saw it, busy getting off the car and greeting it.

"Whew! How did you change the car? She often rides in Zhou Ming's car, which was originally a white city buggy, and today it is a brand new silver Camry sedan.

I just bought it, I only finished the formalities the day before yesterday, I was afraid that the souvenirs I brought home for the New Year would have a taste, and the separation of passengers and goods in the car was done well, so I bought this car. And two cars can also dodge the limit number, I don't know if you like it or not! ”

Gladly, he was blind, but he just thought that the car was beautiful and had the temperament of a young man, and he sat in it with joy. The space is very wide, and there is no taste, Zhou Ming started the car, while telling her: "This car I have done high temperature formaldehyde treatment, basically no taste, I do things you can rest assured!" ”

He smiled happily and said, "The old man is indeed a veteran, and it is more useful than me who have no common sense!" ”

Zhou Ming reached out to twist her nose, because her nose was the most beautiful and lovely of the five features, pointed and high like a light mountain, and she could still feel the wet and hot breath in that soft place.

Xinran smiled and shouted, "Screw red, twist red, let people see and think I'm red nose!" ”

"Whoever made you say I'm an old man, then I'll screw it again," he said, and then he said, and then he got started.

He cried out happily, "Well, well, don't say it, but today I look really young, and it cost a lot of money to clean up, right?" ”

"That's called a good natural foundation, what is there to clean up, just cut a haircut, and never get anything, unlike you girls, grease and powder that can see the real face?" It's not that there's a joke that boys are the most beautiful after bathing, and girls are ugly after bathing! Say it yourself and laugh first.

Gladly seeing him smile triumphantly, he couldn't help but tear his ears with his hands, he hurriedly dodged and replied: "My happiness is a big beauty, not made up, I admit this!" ”

"That makes you admit it!" Gladly tear it up.

"Don't, don't, there's a camera, HD!" Zhou Ming begged, gladly letting him go.

"By the way, Glad, did you tell your mother about me?" Zhou Ming liked Xinran too much, he always had a hurdle in his heart for his age, afraid of losing her because of this, he thought about how many days and nights, thought about ten thousand reasons, but he couldn't make up a reason that could dispel Xinran's psychological worries with a few words, so his heart had always been worried.

"Ah, this? You have to believe in yourself, are you such a good person still afraid that my mother will not agree? Gladly said with a smack.

"I always thought your mother would think that I had deceived you or coerced you to leave me."

Happily smiled and said, "I didn't think you were quite simple, it's not like, old comrade!" ”

Zhou Mingqi wanted to find the reward from her again, and he was frightened and gladly dodged and flashed, laughing wildly.

Zhou Ming couldn't bear to hurt her in the end, so he had to exhale: "I am an old comrade, and a little girl like you is really hateful, so that an old man like me fell in love with you." Qian Zhongshu said: The love of old comrades is like an old house on fire, and it is not saved to burn it! ”

Gladly looking at the solemnity of what he said, his body leaned over from the passenger seat, and his head was also resting on Zhou Ming's shoulder, like a bird. Yu Ran said: "The person I like is naturally the best, I don't care if my mother agrees or disagrees, my marriage is up to me." Besides, my mother is also a reasonable person, although I told her that we will come back together, but for your situation, I only told her a loss! He said with a white thumb and middle finger as white as an onion, bent a crescent, and the other fingers were raised high into orchid fingers. It's just that the crescent is so small, like the milk moon at the beginning of each month.

Zhou Ming knew that she would not tell her mother too much, and she had more worries in her heart.

Glad to see the appearance of his heart being reborn, her heart was particularly happy, which showed how heavy Zhou Ming's heart was to her, as for her mother, no matter what, she would be unswerving! Busy comforted: "I think, we just need to tell her the road we have traveled and the things we have experienced together, she will agree, will bless us, we will all be happy!" With that, her soft but cold little hand reached into Zhou Ming's wide, thick and hot hand.

It was like a heart implanted in a body, which immediately gave life power, "Bang Dong Dong" "Dong Dong Dong", Zhou Ming and Xinran seemed to melt together and become heart-to-heart. This is the power of love, making people intoxicated, like a drunk!

The car galloped forward on the highway, Zhou Ming and Xinran snuggled intimately together, looking at the picturesque scenery outside the window, feeling the beautiful scenery inside the car, and looking forward to it together: May there be lovers who will eventually become dependents, and may our love be blessed by our relatives!

Xinran's mother lived in a medium-sized city just over twenty kilometers away from the provincial capital. Although close, closer than the airport in the provincial capital. But Xinran rarely returned home. First, she was very busy at work, and she really couldn't find the opportunity to go home and live for a few days. Second, she lived with her mother for eighteen years, and only separated from college, and her mother's discipline of her was very strict. Although she also knew that it was for her own good, deep down she thought that she had grown up and wanted to live independently. My mother often went to the provincial city to see her, and when she went, she would pick and choose her. Found that her house is not clean, do not cook much, random takeaway, stay up late without sleeping, love sweets and many other problems, within two days also angry home, but after a while I missed it again. So as usual, she went home to visit on may 1st, 11th, Spring Festival and other longer holidays to alleviate her mother's pain of lovesickness. But in this way, her relationship with her mother maintains this kind of distance, not far away, every time they meet is kind and fresh, which is also another manifestation of the truth that distance produces beauty. Whether it is a husband and wife, a relative, or a friend, this reason is always tried and tested.

It is the waxing moon, and the breath of the New Year is gradually revealed. In the street shops around the living area of a state-owned enterprise, the red-hot goods first continue to catch people's eyes, and the street facades protrude some stalls from the door to the sidewalk, and the shelves are piled with all kinds of new year goods from the south to the north, so that people who come and go can stop and look more realistic. At this point, the already not very spacious sidewalk is more crowded, but the crowd is festive, the crowd is lively, there is laughter everywhere, and everything seems to be bustling.

But among these commodities, there are Sichuan black and transparent bacon, Hubei salted pickled fish, Liaoning and Zhejiang shrimp, scallops, striped fish, Shandong claw peanuts, Shanghai beautifully packaged candy, and Xinjiang red black and green raisins.

Merchants kept shouting, constantly inviting people to taste, and also opened bags of frozen seafood, so that the fishy smell continued to emanate with the sun, attracting several hungry cats to turn around under the shelves, "meow" straight. From time to time, the fishmonger throws a few fishing nets, and several cats will scramble to fight and "meow"!

As long as people in the living area pass through these shops, they will continue to be saturated in sight, taste and hearing, and then join the shopping army.

Such a situation, like in a small fire is burning, the temperature gradually rises, it will make people's hearts beat faster, the depths of the heart are constantly surrounded by this lively, peaceful atmosphere, and it is like picking the flames on the candles at night, constantly picking, constantly picking, the fire will be brighter, until the atrium of the person is illuminated, the Lunar New Year will arrive.

The annual taste of the living area is incomparable to that of large cities, and the atmosphere of life here is thicker. People here are basically familiar with each other, when they come face to face, they will receive a response to a greeting, you see what I buy, what he buys, and the preparation for the New Year is gradually prepared in this coming and going.

Xinran's mother was almost ready at this time. She was fifty-four years old, and because she was retiring internally, it would take a year to start receiving social security. In addition to a few wrinkles between her eyebrows and a few strands of gray sideburns, she looked very young and capable because of her white complexion and thin figure.

But she has lived alone for many years, Xinran's father died of illness more than ten years ago, so these years are her and Xinran dependent on each other, after she went to college, she lived alone, but also used to, after all, the most empty time is the New Year, and when the New Year is new, the daughter is going to come back to accompany her, which has become a thought in her heart, a sustenance. As the Spring Festival approaches, this sense of urgency is getting stronger and stronger. But in the past few years, she felt that it was not enough to come back alone to accompany her for the New Year, and under the pressure of the neighbors and relatives around her, she felt that it was best to bring back a boy to come back for the New Year together. She had nagged about this many times, and she was so glad to hear that her ears were about to grow cocoons, and she was simply tired of it. This is also a reason why I am reluctant to go home often.

And today, it is the day when my daughter comes home from vacation. She has not seen her daughter for more than half a year, and her daughter has been working in the provincial city for two or three years after graduating from college, and only the Spring Festival can stay at home for a few days a year. No, I said yes last night, and I will be able to come back in the afternoon.

And this time I came back alone, with a son-in-law! The daughter is not very old, but she is anxious for this matter, this time I heard that this son-in-law is also from this province, just different cities, fortunately, the customs and temper are more or less the same, will not be too different from life and not used to it, so Xinran's mother is very anxious, very anxious, very anxious, very want to know what kind of person this son-in-law is, will not live together in the future, because Xinran said that after the provincial city is stable, it is necessary to take her to live together.

Glad mother hit the heart of the happy mess, the spirit of busy all night, early in the morning and early to buy this and buy that, afraid of greeting is not thoughtful, slow to treat the new person.

And she had been to the street in front of the living quarter three or four times this morning, although her family lived on the sixth floor of a building close to the main entrance, the highest floor and no elevator. But she either bought this or that, and she couldn't think about it again and again, coming and going five times over and over again, and from time to time there was a burst of excitement in her heart, and her heart also rose and fell, and she didn't feel tired at all.

Looking forward to it, looking forward to it, it finally came. The daughter's return, the neighbors in the living area are all aware, this is not, the daughter and the son-in-law's car just drove into the gate of the living area, downstairs to pick vegetables Zhang Bo, sunbathing Aunt Li, and xiao Lan mama with her grandson to play shouted, "Happy mother, come down!" Glad to bring you back a lot of things! ”

Xinran Mom heard it upstairs, Oh downstairs to the yard, only to see a milky white Toyota Camry sedan parked in the downstairs parked in the parking space, the trunk open, a tall man in a black coat and a mask is moving things out of the box!

And her daughter, dressed in fashionable clothes, is teasing the grandson of Xiaolan's mother's family next to her. Xinran's mother's attention at this time was all on this man in the black coat. From the back, it is tall and mighty, and the waist is thin, which belongs to the kind of person with a well-proportioned body. At the moment, Xinran's mother was very satisfied in her heart, glad to see her mother, which gave up the child, but she became a child, "Ma Yu" a voice into the mother's arms, she emitted a faint fragrance. The mother put her arms around her daughter to take a closer look at her face, much more beautiful, really a female eldest eighteen changes, will dress up, let her also feel surprisingly beautiful. She made eyes at her daughter and muttered to the man in the black coat, and the daughter understood what her mother meant.

He shouted, "Zhou Ming, come, this is my mother!" ”

That Zhou Ming hurriedly put down his things, clapped his hands, took off his mask, and stepped forward.

"Wow" This is a weather-tested face, although it has thick eyebrows, big eyes, good features, white teeth and neat teeth, and a face of righteousness. However, the black and white hair with sideburns broke through the boundaries of young people, making it difficult to judge the real age. Xinran's mother could not accurately determine the age of such a well-maintained person in the big city, so she directly asked: "You are Zhou Ming, how old are you this year?" ”

"Auntie, I am Zhou Ming. I'm just forty-five years old this year! ”

Xinran Mom's brain "buzzed", like a heavy blow to the head, almost losing consciousness!

Gladly quickly helped her mother to sit down, she knew that her mother was in good health, there was no geriatric disease, it might be angry, no big trouble.

She rubbed her mother's chest with her hand, calling and shaking, and Zhou Ming was also anxiously holding her mother's arm on the side, accompanied by a glad call, and soon her mother came back to her senses.

My mother threw away Zhou Ming's hand, pointed to the car and said to Zhou Ming: You let me go, and we are happy to stay away from our home! Then he said to Xinran: Let's hurry home and don't lose anyone here!

He comforted Zhou Ming with his eyes, and while helping his mother upstairs, he told him to move things up first. Her family lived on the sixth floor of a brick and concrete building near the entrance to the living area, which was also the highest floor and did not have an elevator.

Zhou Ming came very sincerely this time, there were many gifts, and the weight was very heavy, he climbed up and down, and divided the gifts twice before he completely moved upstairs. Then, like a child who has done something wrong, he sits on the couch in the living room of Xinran's house and waits for The verdict of Xinran's mother.

After her mother came home, she lay down on the bed in the back room and gladly poured her mother a cup of hot water while she sat aside.

She told her mother one thing after another that she had experienced with Zhou Ming in the past two years, during which she talked about the touching places, leaving tears from time to time.

Her mother listened carefully and asked her from time to time, and she told her mother all of Zhou Ming's true feelings for her, one hundred and fifty, and her mother fell into contemplation.

I don't know how much time has passed, at this time, the firecrackers of each family have sounded one after another, in the deafening sound of cannons, my mother said leisurely: Alas, I raised you so big is a white raise, the female is not left behind, you are an adult, your life's major affairs are up to you, as long as you look at the right person, I don't say anything! Mom finally let go. She happily put her arms around her mother and cried.

When he walked out of the back room with tears of happiness on his face, Zhou Ming hurriedly stood up and held her delicate and thin face and said pityingly: Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, my mother doesn't agree, I just wait, when I agree, I come again, I pick up my bag and get ready to go out.

Excitedly, he shouted: Fool, what to go, my mother agreed! Saying that, he pounced on Zhou Ming, and immediately slipped into Zhou Ming's arms, snuggled in tightly, snuggled in.

Zhou Ming also hugged her delicate body tightly, and his heart was full of excited gratitude. He told himself in his heart that he must cherish Xinran, must love Xinran, must be filial to her mother, and use his life's efforts to make them happy.

Chinese New Year's Eve rice is prepared by my mother long ago, raw and cooked meat is evenly hot and cold, there are more than a dozen dishes, and it is almost plated and fried. Zhou Ming is also an expert in manipulating the kitchen, which is also the time for him to perform, so he took off his coat, put on an apron, and let Xinran's mother and daughter sit in the living room talking and chatting about melon seeds, while he took over all the processing of Chinese New Year's Eve rice.

After a while, a dozen steaming dishes were put on the table, and sure enough, they were full of color and fragrance, and they had the appearance of a high-end restaurant.

A family of three tasted a sumptuous dinner and poured out the love between parents and children.

Although this may not be anything for an average happy family, it has an extraordinary meaning for a happy mother and daughter. This was the most different time in many years that the mother and daughter had lived. They have been dependent on each other for more than twenty years, and every year is a dry and miserable world. Although she grew up happily, she was smart and sensible, and kept adding joy and novelty to her, either buying gifts or changing the tricks of the New Year, but everything changed, and it was always two people.

And this time Zhou Ming's joining, although it is also an extra picture of chopsticks, but let them feel happy, just like walking into the world of tight flowers, everything around them suddenly becomes beautiful, people are also full of energy in excitement, talking and laughing tirelessly. Chinese New Year's Eve meals went on until the New Year's bell rang, and they got up and went to sleep contentedly.

This may be a chemical change, and Zhou Ming seems to be a catalyst that makes a different change in Xinran's mother and daughter. This can be attributed to a kind of satisfaction for human beings to realize their innermost hopes, and it can also show that human beings of the opposite sex attract each other and move towards the heavenly road of integration and human normality.

Zhou Ming stayed at Xinran's house for five days, except for a few shopping malls and movies, they talked with their mothers all day long, planning everything they planned for marriage in detail. Glad mother and daughter like to be lively and hope to invite their relatives and friends to participate. So he planned to go to a relative's house on the fifth day of the Chinese New Year to visit the New Year, and by the way, he also told everyone about the happy marriage.

Xinran's mother's mother's home is in a foreign county, more than a hundred kilometers away from the city, and she used to go home for the New Year, but it was always inevitable that the boat and car would be tired, time-consuming and laborious. When they came back, the relatives' family was enthusiastic again, and the big bags of gifts were brought back, which made the two of them miserable along the way. Although there was a high-speed train in previous years, it still needs people to pick up and drop off at the train station.

This time is different, Zhou Ming's ready-made car is here, so they carefully discussed the gifts for each family. Although Xinran's grandparents have passed away, but Xinran's mother is the eldest in the family, there is a brother and two sisters below, and their family's life is also good in these years because they are happy to grow up, and they have not received less support from relatives before, and this time they go back to visit, and the gifts are naturally rich. Glad mother is still a careful person, she also wants to make this visit to the maximum effect, so the gift must be combined with the situation of each family to be perfect and appropriate.

The uncle's family must send good cigarettes and good wine, the aunt has a bad temper, and the uncle has taken care of their family for many years, and has made up a lot, and must send heavy gifts. The eldest aunt has a little grandson, but the daughter-in-law has little milk, so if she wants to go, she must bring milk powder. The living conditions of the second aunt's family are not good, the daughter is still in high school, and she needs to send some daily necessities and so on.

However, it is the New Year, and many gifts may not be available. Fortunately, Zhou Ming brought many gifts, and the patterns were really colorful enough to be used for forwarding.

Zhou Ming quickly said that he could buy another one, and these gifts were for his mother. Xinran's mother smiled and said that she had lived alone for many years, and now she only needed to be in a good mood, and she didn't need anything else, so Zhou Ming secretly went out to buy some things and came back, and finally on the morning of the fifth day of the Chinese New Year, the family loaded the gifts into the car and began the journey of visiting relatives.

More than 100 kilometers of travel, coupled with the lack of cars for the New Year, more than an hour will arrive. It was a farmhouse courtyard on the outer ring of the county town, a typical Guanzhong house, with three wide tile houses in front, a box room with a courtyard in the middle, and a two-story building in the back. The upper floor is covered with Yellow Yingying Bao Valley, a scene of abundant grains.

Xinran's uncle was a thin old man, although he was only fifty years old, but the people living in the countryside were old, and Zhou Ming was no different from five or six years old, but when they stood together, it seemed as if they were two generations. The uncle heard the sister say that the niece was going to take the son-in-law back, and he waited outside the door early. When they met, they carefully looked at Zhou Ming, and Zhou Ming quickly handed over a cigarette and lit a cigarette, asking long and short questions.

The gifts he brought to his uncle were two bottles of fifteen-year-old West Wind Wine, two Hibiscus King Cigarettes, two Shaoxing Hams, and two large boxes of Red Star Soft Crispy Pastry. In addition, Xinran's mother also wrapped a red envelope of five hundred yuan for each of the three children of her uncle's family. The money and red envelopes were gladly prepared last night and forced into the mother.

My aunt had prepared the meal early, and after seeing the gift that she gladly gave them, she smiled happily and blossomed, running before and after running, busy inside and outside. It is no wonder that the help they have given to Xinran's mother over the years has always been the main reason for the family's anger.

For example, that time, when Xinran was in junior high school, a proliferative blood vessel grew on the inside of his left arm, and it kept expanding, and his arm was swollen as thick as a leg. Xinran's mother's efficiency in the factory was not good at that time, and her salary had to be paid piecemeal, and her life was very difficult. Go to the hospital to see, the doctor let the operation, first of all, to charge five thousand. My mother borrowed some from her neighbors, and there was still a lot of difference, only five thousand yuan from my uncle and their family. The uncle's family also sold the grandparents' life materials, only to make up enough money, the uncle alone with the money took seven or eight hours by train to send, on the road did not eat a bite of food, drink a sip of water, the money was sent immediately and then rushed back overnight, because he was building a house for people at that time, walking a day to lose a lot of money.

After Xinran's illness was cured, the five thousand yuan was repaid by Xinran's mother for many years. But the value of money at that time is different from that of many years later, and the purchasing power is greatly reduced by the same numbers. The help of relatives is selfless, the past is over, there is nothing to complain about.

However, because the family situation is not good in these years, the aunt and uncle have always taken this matter to talk with the uncle, and their three children have not shown up, not as good as They are happy to learn, and all of them have gone to society after graduating from junior high school. The two daughters are still working in the provincial city, doing jobs without a click. My son works in the bicycle factory in the Suzhou Industrial Park, working overtime in two shifts throughout the day, and did not come back because he had to earn more money in the New Year. Because I want to buy a house in the county, the down payment is not enough.

At the dinner table, my uncle talked about the bitter past of Xinran's family, and kept drinking, and Xinran and his mother also burst into tears.

After lunch, they went to visit the two aunts' homes, not very far, both two or three kilometers in all directions.

The only son of the aunt's family has been in the meat business in the city for several years, which is not bad, so he got married early and gave birth to a son and sent him back to his hometown to bring his grandparents. The daughter-in-law did not know whether it was due to physical reasons or insufficient nutrition, there was very little milk, and even if there was, she could not support the children, so the aunt had to keep buying milk powder. Although it is domestically produced, the price is also very expensive.

This time, Xinran's mother brought two large boxes of milk powder, and all of them were imported, enough for the children to eat for more than a month, and really liked to spoil the aunt's family.

Under the interrogation of his aunt's family, Zhou Ming explained all his birthday and salary bonuses, although he gladly knew that many of his figures were hidden, but it also surprised his aunt's family and completely ignored Zhou Ming's age.

The aunt's family sighed and admired that they had found a man who was very good at making money. The shy Zhou Ming had no place for himself, this was originally nothing in the provincial city, here it was much higher, he also wondered that everyone did not care about his age, and from time to time he smiled at Xinran.

Gladly bet on telling Zhou Ming that the aunt's family thought wrong, and thought you were a round younger, more than thirty years old! At this age, such an income is naturally something that few people can reach.

Zhou Ming also thought that this might be the case, because he did look younger, and the eldest aunt's family only asked him about his affiliation, which was really possible that he was wrong.

It was more than four o'clock in the afternoon when they came to the second aunt's house, and their family life was the worst in Pro-Wei Li. The second aunt and uncle are not in good health, often see a doctor and take medicine, and they also work in a small workshop after farming, but they can't make money. Fortunately, my daughter studied well, and I was really glad to look like that year, worked hard, and was at the top of the class every year. This time, I gladly brought all my learning materials from that year, and also brought my cousin a down jacket I had just bought. Zhou Ming brought a bunch of daily necessities such as rice flour oil and canned food. Xinran's mother gave the baby who went to school a red envelope of two thousand yuan. She gladly encouraged her cousin to continue to study hard, and she could manage her living expenses after being admitted to the provincial university. The second aunt's family thankfully agreed.

Near the end of the afternoon, Xinran wanted to go home, and Xinran's mother wanted to go back to her uncle's house for one night, saying that her uncle had not finished speaking and might want to borrow money to buy a house for her son. Zhou Ming said it was okay.

Shouting happily: It will freeze people to death! It's really going to freeze to death!

My mother said: I grew up in such an environment, and I have not seen anyone freeze to death, I still have a lot to say to your uncle, you sleep with your cousin, and Zhou Ming lives in the house of his cousin who has not returned home. Your uncle said there are electric mattresses, not cold!

Glad to see his mother's resolute attitude, his uncle and aunt were eager to hope, knowing that they could not refuse, and said to Zhou Ming as if he had deliberately made a threat: You must be prepared to build three quilts at night!

Zhou Ming smiled: I am not afraid, as long as you are there, my heart is warm! Moreover, it is only minus two degrees now, not much cold!

That's weird! He glanced at him with a blank stare and added: "It's really cold!" Zhou Ming smiled and expressed disbelief.

But in the evening, Zhou Ming realized that what He was happy to say was true. At first he also talked to Xinran in the house with his uncle's family. Zhou Ming sat on a stool, gladly they all sat on the kang, their legs covered with quilts, sugar and melon seeds and peanuts on a small low-legged table, and the table was placed on the quilt in the crowd. Kang has just been burned, and smoke continues to come out from the fire door, presumably it must be very hot.

But when he was talking, Zhou Ming felt that his legs were cold, and a cold wind blew in from the crack of the door from time to time, and there was a cold and numb feeling in his legs, knees, and feet, especially his knees, which were about to lose consciousness, making people feel that they had arthritis.

Zhou Ming thought that although he was in good health, but it was really unforgiving in the years, he could not really get arthritis, and he gladly pointed out his life later, and his body must be well maintained, so he resigned early.

Gladly and caringly, he said to him: Remember to cover your clothes on the quilt, so that it is warmer! Also, also, try not to get up at night. As he spoke, he laughed first, probably remembering the advertising phrase that men with good kidneys do not get up at night. Blushing and glancing at him, full of joy and shyness.

Zhou Ming went back to the house to go to bed, and his aunt was busy taking out a few quilts from the cabinet and giving them to him, and adjusted the electric mattress to the maximum.

Zhou Ming did not like the heat, and turned off the electric mattress as soon as he went to bed. Looking at the brand new futon is really happy, thinking about the scene of looking forward to sharing a bed with a beautiful and happy person in the future, my heart is full of infinite beauty. After a while I went to sleep.

However, in the middle of the night, Zhou Ming was frozen awake, and he felt that as long as the quilt was not covered tightly, there was a cold wind, his nose was also cold and cold, and his snot was flowing out unconsciously. He hurriedly covered the air leaks in the quilt, and then after a while it was still not working, still feeling cold. He opened the electric mattress again and adjusted it to the highest grade. It took a while to feel warmer, but when I just wanted to go to sleep, I wanted to go to the bathroom again. Only then did he remember the words he had gladly told him not to get up. Because the bathroom is far away, at the back of the yard, let him get dressed from the warm bed and walk to the bathroom, which is even more frightening than crossing the knife mountain! So he endured and endured, fell asleep again in the blur, dreamed and looked for the toilet all the way, looked for it, and finally found it. Peeing and waking up, it was more than five o'clock in the morning, he gritted his teeth and got dressed and went to the bathroom, and when he came back, he never wanted to take off his clothes and sleep again.

Zhou Ming stepped out of the gate and came to the wilderness, at this time, there was heavy snow in the sky, and in a short while, the heavens and the earth were on the line, and the snow was white. Looking at the snowflakes sprinkled in the scoop, Zhou Ming reached out into the air like a child and caught it, put it in the palm of his hand, watched the chic snowflakes melt from his hands, and felt a different kind of novelty and beauty.

At this time, Xinran, who was wearing a snow-white down jacket, jumped out of his uncle's door and secretly came to Zhou Ming's side. Clinging to Zhou Ming like a kitten, she hugged him from behind. Zhou Ming enjoyed the embrace, turned around and wrapped his arms around her body, kissing her tightly.

Two people standing in the field like a white snow sea, in the witness of the country houses and trees near and far seem to melt together, this moment makes many people envious, eager!

At dusk in winter, the yard is quiet. Even the most playful children were called back to dinner by their families.

Today is the sixth day of the Chinese New Year, Xinran's mother is also busy in the kitchen, tonight she is ready to cook a few dishes, to celebrate again, because tomorrow Xinran and Zhou Ming will leave.

At this time, Zhou Minggang brought a plate of cold dishes cut by himself from the kitchen and put them on the dining table, and by the way, he set up the cups and dishes of the three people, and saw that he was sitting on the sofa and looking at him with deep affection, and his heart was warm. Glancing at the kitchen where Xinran's mother was cooking, she walked quickly to Xinran's side, sat down next to her, put her arms around Xinran's shoulders, rubbed face to face, warmed, sniffed, and the two people felt each other's body temperature conduction, stimulating a hot current from the heart to the whole body, warm and comfortable.

It's no wonder, though they've all been in a relationship. However, this time I went home to see my mother, first because zhou Ming's age gap was too large, and the old man's anger was half dead. It is easy to ease up, which explains and persuades, and constantly dispels my mother's doubts. The two of them, on the other hand, maintained a certain safe distance in front of their mothers so that they could look comfortable.

It was the sixth day since I got home, and Xinran's mother finally approved of their relationship, but they were like first acquaintances, except for eye contact, they did not dare to cross the line at all. Although it is said that it is living at home, but the Xinran family house is quite large, to Zhou Ming to live alone, in addition to eating, watching TV and talking and chatting, the two people are isolated by their mothers, this feeling of not being able to eat, so that two people, especially Zhou Ming, are anxious to get on the fire, and the monkeys are anxious. This does not take advantage of the moment when Xinran's mother can't see it, and slightly relieves the anxiety in her heart.

However, it has been much better, he has performed very well in the past few days, and he has used his talents to please Xinran's mother and express himself, and even some skills are gladly unknown.

First of all, in terms of cooking, Zhou Ming had eaten the big dishes of the north and south and the whole table of Manchu and Han. His years of experience have produced profound insights. He was simple and embodied the essence in his home-cooked meals.

For example, he made a plate of egg fried rice at noon on the first day of the New Year, first of all, the face value is online, with eggs, diced carrots, lunch meat cubes and green vegetables together, made into egg fried rice, bright color is very tempting, in the plate and added banana segments, tomato slices and green vegetables, instantly put a plate of ordinary egg fried rice plump up, balanced nutrition, simply perfect.

On the second night of the Chinese New Year, everyone fished ah meat, eat tired, he baked a plate of brown sugar steamed buns, the brown sugar steamed buns looked a little like the dirty buns that were particularly hot before, the flour sprinkled on the surface was like a layer of sugar frosting, the entrance was soft, sweet and greasy. Gladly eating three in one go, Zhou Mingsheng was afraid that she would not digest at night, and accompanied her to chat until late at night.

On the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, the fish-flavored meat shreds he mastered completely conquered Xinran's mother, although it was said to be a home-cooked dish, but Zhou Ming's craftsmanship impressed her. The finished stir-fried dish is red in color, and the soup is wrapped around the surface of the shredded meat, but it is not sticky as a paste, nor is it spread out on the plate very thinly. The surface of the dish will have a shallow luster, rather than a dry feeling, the bottom of the dish oozes a thin layer of oil and the texture of the shredded meat is very smooth and tender, the taste is fresh and slightly spicy, slightly sweet and sour. This dish is very delicious, a full bowl of rice, the family three times five divided by two, and then finished eating.

After conquering the two women in the art of cooking, Zhou Ming showed a good order of life, he got up regularly every morning, quietly cleaned up the house, cleaned up. Xinran's mother can see that this is not a deliberate performance, but a long-term living habit. Because in the short term, it is impossible to do many home-cooked things reasonably and without falling into the ground.

Then there is the treating of people and things. In the past few days, Xinran's neighbors and relatives and Zhou Ming have all met and spoken. That conversation, that posture, has a look, makes people feel close and peaceful, full of sunshine, honest and trustworthy.

What is more convincing is that after years of struggle, Zhou Ming has become an executive of a large company, and now the provincial city has a house and a car, and fully has strong economic strength.

Xinran's mother looked in her eyes, and it also made her feel relieved. Neighbors and relatives did not say that Zhou Ming was bad. So after a few days of ideological struggle, she gradually accepted it calmly.

The meal that night was so delicious that she drank some wine, and when her mind was slightly groggy, she handed the glad hand to the old son-in-law, even if it was an official recognition of them.
