Chapter 104
Before last year, Song Song and Ding Rui were looking forward to the New Year, but also dreading it.The expectation is because of the longing for family members and the desire for reunion.

The fear is because it is too inconvenient to go home.

Tickets for the Spring Festival Transport were very difficult to buy. Once Song Song and Ding Rui couldn't get a ticket after waiting for a few days. Song Song was so angry that he ordered the song "Forget You" for scalpers on the radio.In the end, the two discussed and discussed, so they had no choice but to pay a high price to buy a full-price air ticket, fly to a nearby city, stay outside for one night, and transfer two buses before arriving in the afternoon of New Year's Eve. Home.

In addition to grabbing tickets, Song Song and Ding Rui have to bring back a lot of things every year. After all, they can’t go home empty-handed during the Chinese New Year, it’s too ugly.They had to prepare Jiangyi specialties for their relatives, toys and snacks for their children, filial gifts for their parents, plus luggage for the two of them, they were simply using themselves as mules.

This year is different from previous years. Song Song is completely free to buy whatever he wants. He has a car at home, so he no longer has to fight for tickets, he is not afraid to bring gifts, and he can even leave whenever he wants.

How can this feeling be called "pleasant"?

With such unbridled thoughts, Song Song and Ding Rui couldn't hold back when they were shopping. They piled up two shopping carts high and spent more than 1000 yuan, not to mention filling the trunk. It also takes up some space in the back row.

But this is not over yet, Song Song also went to the tobacco and alcohol firm to buy two Huazi and a box of Dream Blue, and kept them for entertaining relatives and friends who came to visit the New Year.

With all the preparations and the packed luggage, there should be nothing missing, but Song Song always feels like he has forgotten something important.

When packing up at night, Song Song suddenly remembered what he had overlooked, so anxious that he slapped his forehead hard: "No, I forgot to take my mother to buy new clothes! What a waste of drinking!"

Song Song had already planned that he would take a day off before Ding Rui, and he could spend the day with his mother to buy new clothes for her and his father.

People of the older generation pay more attention to this point. They usually save so much that they wish they could split a penny in half and spend it. They are reluctant to buy food, drink, let alone wear clothes.

Several times Song Song saw that the autumn clothes and johns that his old lady wore when she got up at night were patched. He was very distressed. He had never heard of anyone wearing patched clothes these days.

However, the department dinner the night before caused Song Song's hangover, which made him sleep until noon before waking up in a daze.

After Ding Rui came back at noon, they were busy buying new year's goods and packing their luggage, but Song Song actually forgot such an important thing.

"It's really not possible. I'm going to my hometown tomorrow. I'll go to the shopping mall in the county first. Alas, I'm afraid that my mother will die by then. I'm so stupid, how can I forget such an important thing..."

Looking at the remorseful Song Song, Ding Rui grinned.

Song Song was a little unhappy: "What are you laughing at?"

Ding Rui smiled and said, "Look at your anxious look, how silly! Come on, I'll give you a surprise."

While saying this, Ding Rui opened the closet and found several unopened packages.

"Open it and have a look." Ding Rui threw the package to Song Song.

Song Song was stunned for a while, guessing something, hurriedly found out the scissors and opened the package, and sure enough, he saw that there were new clothes for the elderly inside. There was a set of men's clothes and a set of women's clothes. The size should be for the mother and the old man. Dad bought it.

"When did you buy it? Hasn't the express delivery stopped?" Song Song was extremely surprised.

Ding Rui said: "I bought it a long time ago. I wanted to tell you about it at the time, but you were so drunk that day that you passed out. Later, I was too busy with work, so I forgot to tell you."

Forgot to say it was false, Ding Rui was actually a bit angry, who made Song Song drink so much outside?

Song Song stuffed the two sets of new clothes into the suitcase excitedly, and Ding Rui asked suspiciously, "Aren't you going to show it to your mother?"

"Don't try it, let's give the old couple a surprise on New Year's Day."

"What if the size doesn't fit?"

"The express delivery has stopped, and I will go back to my hometown tomorrow. If the size does not fit, I can't return it for the time being. I can only talk about it at that time. And, I believe you."

Song Song and Ding Rui were busy working until one o'clock in the morning before falling asleep, and were woken up by the alarm at five o'clock in the morning.

The reason why they chose to set off so early was mainly to avoid the peak return home.

People on the Internet say that traffic jams on highways are particularly severe during the Chinese New Year, and it is specially designed to treat all kinds of road rage and impatience.

Song Song thought he and Ding Rui got up early enough, but Ge Guiqin got up earlier and had already prepared breakfast for everyone.

After breakfast and packing up the dishes, Song Song checked the house from inside to outside, turned off all the power and gas valves, locked all the doors and windows, and then left in peace.

It is past five o'clock in winter, and the sky has not yet dawned, which is the darkest time.

The dim street lights barely illuminate the road, there are almost no cars on the road, and the whole city is still sleeping.

Ge Guiqin sat in the back row trying to coax the little girl who was very angry in bed to catch up on sleep, Ding Rui sat in the co-pilot and helped Song Songcha navigate and guide the way, Song Song hummed a little song and drove, although he only slept for less than four hours , but he was full of energy, even a little excited.

The car did not drive for a long time before it got on the highway.Song Song stepped on the accelerator and gradually accelerated the speed of the car.

Although Song Song seldom drives, his experience in high-speed driving is far more than Ding Rui's. In addition, he is a man, so he will take care of all the long-distance trip.

Man, you should be tough on yourself!
At eight o'clock in the morning, Song Song had already run more than 200 kilometers. At this time, the number of cars on the road had gradually increased, and it was difficult to increase the speed.

When we walked to the Chuzhou section, traffic jams began to appear, and the traffic jam lasted for more than an hour, which was terrible.

Fortunately, Song Song was well-prepared. There was food and drink in the car, and a large bottle of hot water was also installed. Apart from the inconvenience of going to the toilet, there were no other problems.

At around 120 noon, Song Song finally moved away from the most congested section of the road. The road started to flow smoothly, and the speed of the car could already reach [-] mph. It was still more than four hours away from home.

Of course, Song Song is still optimistic too early.

During the Spring Festival, there are frequent rear-end collisions on the highway, and traffic jams come at any time, and they can't be stopped.

Originally a total of about ten hours of driving, Song Song Leng drove for nearly twenty hours. He was almost exhausted and collapsed, and only arrived home around midnight at night.

The rural people rest early, and every household has turned off the lights. Looking around, only Song Song's house is on.

Song Weijun stood at the door, wrapped in a thick padded jacket, trembling and smoking, waiting anxiously.

The car slowly stopped at the door of the house. Song Song put on a down jacket and jumped out of the car. He felt his legs were swollen, which should be due to edema.He stepped forward and handed Dad a cigarette.

Song Weijun took the cigarette and put it on his ear, but ignored Song Song, went straight to the back row, and yelled inside through the window: "Nini, do you miss Grandpa?"

Ge Guiqin knocked on the window in the car, angrily pointed at Song Xiaoni who was sleeping in her arms, her eyes were like knives, and Song Weijun shivered.

Song Song lowered his head and lit a cigarette. Looking at his small building and the bright red lanterns on the left and right sides of the gate, he couldn't help sighing, "I'm finally back! I'm blocked!"
