Du Yimeng wanted to go and take a look at the machinery factory. After all, that was his first job. He had been away for so long and didn't know what was going on in the factory.

But then I remembered that today is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, which is the time when the factory closes its machines and is also the time when the factory cafeteria organizes the annual "Remembering the Bitterness and Thinking of the Sweetness" meal.

What if she goes there and I give her a spoonful too?

Forget it, let’s talk about it after the New Year!

Then she thought of Secretary Wan, who was always absent from the year-end meeting. He must be unwell again today, right?

……

Secretary Wan, who was lying on a recliner covered with a blanket and leisurely drinking tea, sneezed violently.

He rubbed his nose helplessly. He pretended to be sick every year on this day. Could it be that he was really sick this time?

It seems that I can’t lie down in the yard anymore, I’d better go back to the house and lie down there more comfortably.

……

As soon as Li Saifeng and Yu Lang left, Du's mother sent the three brothers away and went to Du Yimeng's room herself.

Du Yimeng looked at the furnishings in her room, which were still the same as before, spotless, as if she had never left.

Even the bed was made. Seeing this, she felt warm in her heart. It felt so good to be thought of by someone.

"I patted the quilt in the summer. I heard you were coming back, so I dry it in the sun every day. It must be warm to sleep in at night." Du's mother saw Du Yimeng's eyes fall on the quilt and said with a smile.

When she saw Du Yimeng take off her scarf and hat, the smile on her face disappeared and her eyes instantly turned red.

How could the daughter I raised not understand that the most precious thing about her is her long hair? But now, her hair is as short as a boy's.

I used to be busy at the machinery factory, but I still had long hair. But now my long hair is gone. How busy must I have been to cut my long hair?

Everyone said her daughter had made great progress and was transferred to the Second Ministry of Machine Building. But with great ability comes great responsibility!

Only my daughter knows the hardship involved.

"Thank you, Mom!" Du Yimeng said while holding her hat and scarf in one hand and touching the quilt with the other hand. It was quite soft.

It's impossible to fluff your quilt every year these days, but there's another traditional method that doesn't cost any money and can make the cotton fluffy.

That is, when you hang your quilt to dry in the summer, you can beat it with a rattan paddle and use inertia to separate the human dandruff and dust in the quilt, which can achieve a clean and fluffy effect.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Du Yimeng turned around and saw her mother looking at her with red eyes. She asked in confusion.

Then she touched her hair sticking to her head and smiled helplessly. Her mother must be worried about her!

Anyone with short hair knows that if you don't wash your hair for a few days and then wear a hat, you can imagine how unpleasant it will look when you take the hat off.

But instead of despising her, Du's mother felt sorry for her suffering.

"It's okay. The strong wind just made my eyes blurry." Mother Du rubbed her eyes as if nothing had happened.

My daughter was already upset about having her hair cut long, and bringing it up was like stabbing her in the heart.

Du Yimeng just smiled and didn't expose her mother's little thoughts.

"Mom, do you have a bath ticket at home? I want to take a bath." Du Yimeng asked with a smile. After sitting on the train for four days and four nights, she felt very uncomfortable.

It’s true that I want to take a shower, and it’s also true that I want to change the subject.

"Yes, I'll go get the ticket. You pack two sets of clothes and we'll be leaving in a while." Mother Du said as she went to her room. She had prepared the bath ticket long ago and was waiting to use it in the next two days.

We had planned to wait until the factory closed for the holiday and then go to the public bathhouse with our family in the evening.

Now she decided to go early, and as for the two who had not yet finished get off work, they would go by themselves.

"Laowu, have you finished cleaning the gate?" Du's mother walked to the door and shouted to Laowu who was cleaning the gate.

"I've wiped it, but I think it's not clean enough, so I plan to wipe it again." Lao Wu replied without raising his head while working hard.

"Alright, stop wiping! If you keep wiping, the paint on the gate will be wiped off." Du's mother shouted to the fifth child from a distance. It's not good for a child to be too sensible. It wastes things...

The fifth brother, who was working hard, stopped. If his skin peeled off, his father would beat him again.

Sometimes he doesn't understand what his parents are thinking. If his child doesn't work, they say he is a bad boy, and if he works, they complain that his child breaks things.

Just like this door, if you don’t wipe it, it will be dusty, but if you wipe it, the paint will fall off.

"And the third and fourth children, pack up and go take a shower." Mother Du said this and turned back to her room.

As she turned around, she couldn't help but mutter a few words, saying that this might be the reason why the fifth child had enough to eat in the past two years.

Like a calf, he has endless energy every day. He is either working or messing around. In short, he can't sit still.

It's a good thing to like working, it's better than fighting with others every day.

It seems that ever since Lao Wu and Lao Yu next door started running every day, no one has come to their house to ask her family to pay for medical expenses.

I don’t know if she owes someone something, why does she still feel a little lonely?

She absolutely refused to admit it because she hadn't argued with anyone for a long time and it was too boring.

……

Li Saifeng, who was sitting next door, was asking Yu Lang with a loving face about what happened to Yu Ya's two children.

However, after hearing Du's mother's voice, he seemed to have received some kind of signal. He quickly left Yu Lang and ran back to his room to pack his clothes.

Ever since she went to the bathhouse with Du's mother once, she was no longer so averse to public baths.

In the past, every time she went to a public bathhouse to take a bath, everyone would greet her when they saw her. If it were any other time, she would definitely not have such a strong resistance.

But the key point is that she is naked, and everyone who greets her will subconsciously glance at her.

We are all women, what’s so good about it?

Also, can you put on some clothes before we talk?

Ever since she took a bath with Du's mother one time, all her embarrassment disappeared because of her, and everything was fine.

Yu Lang, who was sitting on the sofa waiting for his mother's questions, looked confused.

"What are you still doing here? Go take a shower quickly..." After Moon Lee came out, she saw Yu Lang staring at her stupidly, and the image of a loving mother just now was gone.

Yu Lang: ...

His mother had clearly asked him to talk more about the two children, and he racked his brains to come up with it. But before he could open his mouth, his mother left.

When he came back, the topic had changed so quickly that he could hardly keep up.

"Your Aunt Du and Dameng must have packed up. I'll leave first. Here's the bath ticket. You can go by yourself later!" Li Saifeng casually threw a bath ticket on the coffee table, turned around and walked out quickly.

Maybe because she walked too much, the bath ticket placed on the corner of the coffee table fluttered to the ground in the wind.

Yu Lang's gaze followed the bath ticket from the coffee table to the ground.

He hasn't been back for more than a year. Shouldn't the mother be loving and the son be filial?

He remembered that it was not like this the last time he came back.
