Kneeling in front of my wife’s tombstone and crying bitterly, I was reborn

As they were talking, the car had already arrived at the intersection of Qingwa Street.

After parking the car and getting out, Shen Qiansan held the earthenware jar in one hand and the torn snakeskin bag in the other. Chen Shuting took the remaining three scrolls, and the two walked home together.

"Qian San is back!"

"How come Shu Ting is free to come back at noon today?"

"Brother Qian San!"

"Sister Chen!"

"sister in law!"

"..."

At noon, there were quite a few people on Qingwa Street. After seeing Shen Qiansan and Chen Shuting, they all greeted them. The older ones greeted them cordially, and the younger ones greeted them enthusiastically.

This was completely different from the previous times when they had seen the two of them quietly avoiding each other.

Chen Shuting seemed to be still a little uncomfortable with the change in her neighbors' attitude and responded somewhat stiffly.

Shen Qiansan didn't care at all. He replied calmly but didn't say more.

"You said, Shen Qiansan is so rich, why is he still carrying a snakeskin bag?"

"Yeah, and you took a broken pottery jar back with you. I don't know what's inside it."

"I heard that Shen Qiansan likes to collect junk. It seems to be true."

"How did you know?"

"Don't you know? The furniture he bought was just a set of old furniture, bought from a flea market."

"Yes, I saw it when it was delivered and asked about it. It was indeed bought at the flea market."

"He's so rich that he even bought a car. Why doesn't he buy new furniture?"

"Who knows! Maybe rich people have different preferences!"

"If I had as much money as he did, I would definitely buy the most expensive and best furniture. I wouldn't want those old ones."

"..."

After Shen Qiansan and Chen Shuting walked away, the neighbors saw the rags in their hands and started talking about them.

But it was just idle chat and no one took it seriously.

In that era, there were no mobile phones, no internet, and even the TV stations had few programs during the day. It can be said that there were very few entertainment activities, which led to ordinary people liking to get together and chat.

In this era, anything that happens to the people around you, even the slightest disturbance, can make people talk about it for a long time.

What's more, Shen Qiansan is now a prominent figure in Qingwa Street. He bought Chen Shuting a new car yesterday and brought home a bunch of junk today. There is no reason for these people not to say something.

Actually, sometimes I really miss that era. Not to mention family, relatives, and friends, even neighbors, acquaintances, or even people I don’t know very well, we can talk for a long time when we meet.

There is really nothing wrong with describing that era as “people who can talk about anything”.

Now, when a couple gets home from work, they each hold their phones, watch short videos, play games, chat, read novels, watch movies and TV series, and listen to music...

Everything was there, except that the couple didn't say a word.

Even if the couple needs to say something, they are too lazy to talk face to face and just use voice or text messages on the phone.

The warm and cozy scene of “talking about anything” in the past is no longer there.

There is an advertising slogan: "Technology changes life."

Yes, technology has changed our lives. For example, the popularity of mobile phones and the Internet has enabled ordinary people to learn about world affairs and even participate in world affairs without leaving their homes. It has broadened people's horizons and made them feel more present.

But the price is that there is less communication between people and many barriers are created.

It’s hard to say whether it’s good or bad.

Just pure nostalgia.

well, let's get back to business.

As soon as Shen Qiansan and Chen Shuting entered the house, Chen Wentao had a cold face.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Qiansan saw it and asked in surprise.

"Nothing!" Chen Wentao said lightly and ignored him.

Chen Shubao's previous words also made him realize the reason why Shen Qiansan didn't lock the door, and it was really hard to say anything to Shen Qiansan.

But not saying it doesn't mean you've calmed down.

When he saw Shen Qiansan, he wanted to say something but didn't know how to, so he could only sulk by himself.

Chen Shuting also felt strange. Dad was always cheerful here, so why did he look so sullen today?

Did I do something wrong to make him unhappy?

But when I think about it, I don’t seem to have done anything today!

Looking at Luo Rong again, I found that her face did not look very good either.

Chen Shuting thought again, maybe my parents were arguing at home?

Looking again, he saw that only his parents were in the room. He didn't see Chen Shubao, so he asked, "Mom, where is Shubao?"

She also thought that Chen Shubao was the one who made her parents angry.

Luo Rong said: "He said he had something to do at work, so he went to work."

After hearing this, Shen Qiansan smiled and said, "The company has given him a day off these two days, what could possibly happen to him?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Rong defended Chen Shubao, saying, "He's going on a business trip tomorrow, and he'll be gone for such a long time. It's normal for him to check in with his employer before he leaves!"

This is what Chen Shubao said to her before he left.

When she heard Shen Qiansan's question, she immediately stood up to protect her son.

Shen Qiansan didn't mind it, and said with a smile: "That's possible, well, you and dad are not unhappy because Shubao went out again!"

At this moment, he thought so too.

After all, my father-in-law and mother-in-law were unhappy yesterday because Chen Shubao didn't come back for dinner.

And apart from this, there seemed to be nothing that could make the two old people angry.

Luo Rong retorted: "He went out because of work at work. Why should we be angry with him?"

After she said this, Shen Qiansan and Chen Shuting were both surprised.

Since it’s not because of Chen Shubao, then why?

The couple looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

Finally, Shen Qiansan asked: "Who made you unhappy?"

"Why else?" Luo Rong said unhappily, "It's all because of you!"

"Because of me?" Shen Qiansan was surprised.

Luo Rong said: "When you left this morning, the door was not locked."

"You don't know how many valuable things there are in the house!"

"Also, you have so much money at home and you don't even know how much it is!"

"You left the door unlocked. What if a robber breaks into the house and steals something?"

After all, Shen Qiansan went out without locking the door so that her family could enter the house, so she had not intended to tell it. However, after Shen Qiansan mentioned Chen Shubao, she blurted it out.

It can also be regarded as a lesson for Shen Qiansan, reminding him to lock the door when he goes out next time.

I thought something had happened to make the two old people angry, but it turned out that I just didn’t lock the door when I went out!

After hearing this, Shen Qiansan felt relieved and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I was careless for not locking the door when I went out, don't be angry."

"I'll pay attention next time."

Although he didn't take it seriously, he would still not lock the door if he encountered this situation next time, but he would have to admit his mistake verbally.
