60s Splendid Life

When Shen Yu received a call from his father, and the father on the other end of the phone told him that he would not be able to come back for the New Year this year, he did not feel any surprise or even the slightest disappointment. It should be said that he had long been used to his parents not being around This kind of life, since he was sent to his grandparents after he was five years old, he spent almost all important days with his grandparents. Later, his grandparents left, and his younger brother came again, picking up his grandma. After arriving in Shanghai, they had an extra family member to spend Chinese New Year together.

Although his father didn't explain his affairs to him very clearly, Shen Yu still knew that his father's work had not been easy these years, and that his father had been doing sports for the past two years. Father's work is still understandable.

When he learned that his parents could not come back to spend the New Year with them, Shen Yu responded to his father on the other end of the phone in a calm tone: "Okay, father, I understand."

After his father said a few words to him, he transferred the call to his mother. His mother apologized to him in a gentle and apologetic tone on the other end of the phone, cared about their lives, and asked him questions Shen Yu also answered his mother's questions in a polite but not distant tone.

When his mother apologized to him at the end of the voice and hoped that he could take good care of his younger brother, Shen Yu hummed and promised to take good care of his younger brother and the elderly at home.

"Brother, brother, is it mom? Give me, I want to talk to mom on the phone." Shen Xing anxiously circled around his brother, trying to jump up to grab the phone, but unfortunately his legs were too short, enough Without his brother's hand.

Shen Yu lowered his head and glanced at the little dwarf at his feet, the corners of his mouth curled up a little, and his mood suddenly became better, "Okay, mother, I'll give my brother a call to tell you." Talking to the mother on the other end of the phone After speaking, he handed the phone to his younger brother who jumped at his heels.

Just after saying "Mom, I miss you", the child holding the phone pursed his mouth, and there was a crying sound in his delicate milk cavity. It seemed that the mother on the other end of the phone comforted him, and Shen Xing began to cry up.

After his younger brother talked on the phone with his mother, Shen Yu walked to the window and stood there, his eyes were looking outside, but his ears were clearly listening to his younger brother holding the phone and acting like a baby with his mother. He could almost imagine that the mother on the other end of the phone was What gentle tone to use to comfort his younger brother, because he used to grow up listening to his mother's gentle voice.

He recalled in his mind when he was young, almost never a child who liked to act like a spoiled child. His mother once complained that he didn't act like a spoiled child like other children, saying His personality is too cold and clingy, and it was not until the appearance of his younger brother that his mother made up for this regret. It seems that it is his own personality problem that makes his parents ignore him all the time.

"Mom, I miss you, when will you come back to see me, woo woo woo..."

There was a long series of woo-woo woo-woo in the back, and the kid Shen Xing was almost crying uncontrollably when talking with his mother on the phone.

The woman on the other end of the phone was also crying, and both mother and son were holding the phone and crying.

"Give it to me." Shen Yu took the phone from his younger brother, and found that his father had been on the other end of the phone, "Okay, father. Grandma is here, talk to her." His grandma asked his grandma to talk to his father on the phone, so Shen Yu went out with his crying brother.

But not long after they went out, the old lady also came out, apparently having finished talking with her son on the phone.

"Don't cry, it's so ugly, you're already ugly and you cry, it's even uglier." Sitting on the sofa, Shen Yu was holding a tissue in his hand, and impatiently wiped his brother's eyes and nose with the tissue, I despise this ugly crying brother very much.

It's a pity that Shen Xing didn't know how his brother disliked him. When he was young, he heard his mother's voice but couldn't see his mother. His emotions collapsed, and he threw himself into his brother's arms and cried. Stop, and said that the brother who detested his ugliness was a villain, and cried even more sadly.

Shen Yu: "..." I'm a villain, why are you still hugging me? !

Even though he disliked him, he still did his duty as an older brother and coaxed his younger brother responsibly.

When Grandma Shen came out and heard her little grandson crying, she also helped coax him a little. There are almost no people to see, no wonder the young grandson will cry when he can't see his parents.

That afternoon, the doorbell of their house rang. Shen Yu opened the door. Seeing a car parked outside, he went to open the door and greeted the person who came. The things in the bag were carried to the door of their house, they put the things away and left.

After sending the people out, Shen Yu closed the door, carried the things at the door to the kitchen and put them away. This year, they basically didn't need to go out to buy anything anymore. The food in the kitchen was enough for them This winter is over.

***

Because the Chinese New Year is approaching, his grandfather's funeral was finished on the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, so as not to delay everyone's New Year's Eve.

After finishing his grandpa's work and returning home, Lu Jin, who hadn't slept for a few days, didn't forget to take a shower and change into clean clothes before climbing into bed and going to sleep. This sleep lasted until the next morning. When I woke up and opened my eyes, I remembered that I was back home.

This year, Yu Wenchang spent the Chinese New Year with his grandsons, and he hasn't lived in his son's unit for a long time.Although the house in their hometown is about to come back, the house there has been occupied by people for more than ten years, and the house was messed up when they left. He was very sad when he went back to see him. About their family, he still has some resentment towards the people in the village, so in the two years since he came back, except for going back to pay homage to his ancestors and relatives in the previous year, this year he went outside with his two grandchildren. Yes, he hasn't been back to his hometown when he came back. He wants to go back after the New Year's Eve, next year's Qingming Festival, so he wants to spend the New Year's Eve with his grandson with a few children.

For his grandfather to stay with them for the New Year, Lu Jin brothers and sisters naturally expressed their welcome. Maybe their grandfather will leave, and the younger ones will have to cry.

When Lu Jin woke up in the morning, his grandfather was no longer on the bed. The two children on the bed had already woken up and were playing around under the covers. He reached out and grabbed a big bug and fished it out. He asked with a smile: "Let me see who is caught."

"Chuck~"

Needless to say, upon hearing this laughter, Lu Jin knew who the child was.

The little Bao'er who was caught wanted to escape, but failed to escape, and was dragged out by his brother's arms. The child giggled happily, and his eyes turned into crescent moons.Lu Jin fished out the baby and kissed it, and said with a smile, "So it's our big baby."

Seeing her brother hugging Xiaobao and kissing her younger brother, Eggy looked envious.

"Eggy, come here and let my brother hug you. I haven't hugged you for a long time. Did you obediently listen to grandpa at home?" Lu Jin didn't miss the envious look in the other child's eyes, and also stretched out his hand to let another child come over to him There, one left and one right embraced two children.

The two children were lying on his body and talking to him, talking about what they did when he was not at home these days.

The three of them lay on the bed for a long time. After Chenchen opened the door and ran in, the two little ones followed her elder brother and almost collapsed the kang. The boys rushed off the Kang to play together.

This day is already the 29th of the new year, which is the day of New Year's Eve.

Lu Jin went to the kitchen after washing up, saw his grandfather and Uncle Rong sitting here talking, the fire in the stove was still burning, he said good morning to the two elders, and asked, "What shall we have for breakfast this morning? "

"I cooked porridge, steamed sweet potatoes and steamed buns, is that enough?" Yu Wenchang asked.

"That's enough. Do you guys want to eat anything else?" Lu Jin hasn't had breakfast at home for several days, and he hasn't even come back to eat at home a few days ago.

In the past few days when the elder brother was not at home, their grandfather cooked porridge and steamed steamed buns every day. Lu Haochen and Xiao Baoer were tired of eating. When their elder brother asked them what they wanted to eat, the two brothers ran away one after another. Say, "Brother, I want to eat pancakes", "Brother, I want to eat noodles".

"Is it noodles or cakes?" Lu Jin asked the two boys who had different opinions.

It was Lu Haochen who wanted to eat pancakes, and Xiao Baoer said to eat noodles. In the end, Lu Haochen glanced at his younger brother and chose the same as his younger brother, "Eat noodles, brother, we want eggs."

"Okay, let's have noodles in the morning, and we'll make big pancakes for you at noon." Lu Jin reached out and touched the boy's head, and asked everyone if they wanted noodles in soup or noodles, and chose to make noodles.

It’s not easy to eat noodles. There are dried noodles at home. Boil a pot of water, put the noodles in when the water boils, and take them out after cooking. Then fry some scallion oil and mix it in. A simple chopped scallion The noodles are done.

The boys also said they wanted to eat eggs. There were not many eggs at home, so Lu Jin chopped up a handful of chopped green onions, beat the eggs, and fried a large pot of scrambled eggs with chopped green onions.

The scrambled eggs with chopped green onion are very fragrant, and the children in their family like to eat them.

"Okay, let's go eat." The last scallion scrambled eggs were fried, and Lu Jin asked his grandfather and sister to help bring their breakfast to the opposite room. The kitchen is too small to eat here, so They usually eat in the big room opposite.

After bringing breakfast to the house, a group of children followed them back here to eat.
