"Wei Ning, what did your mother say?" Grandma Wei got up the next day and asked softly.

"It's nothing, she is too busy this year to come back, and I don't need to go to her." Wei Ning said calmly.

Granny Wei slapped the table with her chopsticks and was very angry: "How is she a mother! In the first half of the year, she only came here for a few minutes after the college entrance examination, and now she doesn't come for the Chinese New Year?!"

Wei Ning hurriedly comforted Grandma Wei: "Mom also works a lot, and she doesn't get off work until after eleven o'clock. It's rare to have a break. I used to disturb her work."

Grandma Wei still looked ugly, and Wei Ning suggested again: "Grandma hasn't been back to her hometown for several years, so I don't need to go to my mother's place this year, let's go back to my hometown for the New Year."

"My hometown, your Aunt Zhao..." Grandma Wei hesitated, whether to tell Wei Ning the content of the last call.

Seeing that Grandma Wei was concerned about his feelings, Wei Ning told her about the phone call she overheard last time with a smile: "It's a good thing that Aunt Zhao is pregnant, and there is no elder like grandma in the family, so let's celebrate the New Year in our hometown. "

Grandma Wei couldn't do it if she didn't care about her son and the unborn child at all, but Wei Ning was the grandson she brought up in elementary school. Grandma Wei felt distressed.

But two people are here to celebrate the New Year, and the one with a son and daughter can't justify it, so they had to pat Wei Ning's hand: "Then go back to my hometown to have a New Year's Eve dinner, stay overnight and come back the next day."

Wei Ning nodded in agreement, so Grandma Wei called Wei Cheng, saying that this year she would go back to her hometown to celebrate the New Year. Needless to say, Wei Cheng's surprise over there, the arrangements for the New Year have also been finalized.

Four days later, Wei Ning received a call from the courier that the medicine sent by He Qianshu had arrived. Due to the Chinese New Year, the courier was much slower, but at least it caught up.

Wei Ning took two packages of cured fish and went downstairs to pick up the courier, and sent the cured fish over there, one to He Qianshu, and one to Gu Peng's family medical center. Friends in the dormitory don't know the address. , Take it with you when you go back to school.

After posting, he sent a text message to tell He Qianshu that the courier had arrived, and thanked him again for his help. He Qianshu was busy there but did not reply. Wei Ning sent another text message to Gu Fan, thanking him and saying that he had sent cured fish over there. Please don't be disgusted.

There have been several heavy snowfalls, and the Chinese New Year is getting closer day by day. People are huddled in their houses and no longer go shopping on the street. It is full of red lanterns, conspicuous and festive.

The day before last, Wei Ning and his grandma packed up some things and arranged a ride to go to their hometown. It would be more convenient to rent a car for more than two hours. Wei Ning took care of grandma and got into the car.

The distance to my hometown is smooth and there are no traffic jams, so when we got off the bus at the village head, Grandma Wei and Wei Ning were both in good condition. They told the driver to meet at the village gate at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and the two walked along the cement road in the village. walk.

The fourth house at the entrance of the village, Wei Ning could already see Wei Cheng waiting at the door, seeing the figure of his mother and son, striding to greet him.

Wei Cheng, who is over forty years old, is tall and thin, his back is still straight, and his face is full of vicissitudes of life: "Mom, Wei Ning and you are finally here. Xiuya and I made breakfast for you to come over and eat."

Grandma Wei said unhappily: "We ate early, you can eat by yourself."

Wei Cheng was silent for a while, and looked at Wei Ning again, feeling a little guilty: "Has Wei Ning grown a little taller? You went to the university to report half a year ago, but because of Xiuya's health, I didn't send you off. It's my wife. Dismissed."

Only then did Wei Ning realize that Aunt Zhao was pregnant at that time, and she was at least six or seven months old now, "It's okay, Dad, grandma, let's go in first."

Walking in from the courtyard gate, there are many flower pots inside, and there is a small piece of soil on which some onions and garlic are planted. It is a completely different feeling from mother Xu Mingfang's housekeeping.

"Mom, mom...you're here." Zhao Xiuya shouted with a big belly.

Zhao Xiuya is less than forty years old, and her body and appearance are very ordinary. This time, perhaps because of her pregnancy, she is fatter than Wei Ning remembers, but her eyes are still gentle and peaceful.

Although she has been married to Wei Cheng for more than ten years, because Grandma Wei has been taking care of Wei Ning outside, she spends very little time with her, and because of guilt and shame, she has been peaceful and peaceful all these years, and nothing has happened to her. .

Unexpectedly, she suddenly found out that she was pregnant in July, and she felt anxious and very satisfied. Since she married Wei Cheng back then, all these years, she still wanted to give Wei Cheng a child, regardless of gender, but she didn't. Thinking of this age, she was still pregnant.

Although Grandma Wei didn't like Wei Cheng's son cheating on him at such an age, she always had no choice but to keep a cool attitude towards the peaceful Zhao Xiuya, and said, "There's no need to say hello, let's eat, I can't help being hungry when I'm old."

Seeing Zhao Xiuya sit down, Wei Ning also called, "Aunt Zhao."

Although she felt sorry for Wei Ning, Zhao Xiuya liked Wei Ning very much, and asked with a smile: "Wei Ning, sit down quickly, have you had breakfast? I heard from my mother that you like tofu noodles, and you made it too. I will serve it to you." You try it."

As he said that, he was about to get up to carry it, and Wei Cheng hurriedly went to carry it by himself. Zhao Xiuya felt a little ashamed when she saw it, so she changed the subject and asked, "Wei Ning, how is the school?"

After speaking, he was afraid that Wei Ning would think she was talkative, so he said in a low voice, "I'm just asking... Are you tired after sitting in the car for so long, sit down quickly."

Wei Ning replied with a gentle smile: "The school is very good, the roommates are easy to get along with, and the professors of the courses are also very knowledgeable."

Only then did Zhao Xiuya talk to Wei Ning with some peace of mind, and asked when school would start next year, and if she remembered to buy the tickets, Wei Ning answered them well, and Grandma Wei was still a little worried that Wei Ning would feel very reluctant, seeing this situation I'm relieved a lot.

Wei Ning actually doesn't dislike Zhao Xiuya, in fact she is a very gentle woman, although she is also the culprit who destroyed her family, but the main problem is her parents' own problem, even if it is not her, there will be someone else.

Wei Cheng came out with tofu noodles, Zhao Xiuya hurriedly asked Wei Ning to eat, some wanted to ask Grandma Wei if she wanted to eat, but she didn't know how to ask.

"Grandma, the tofu noodles are delicious, I'll serve some for grandma." Wei Ning said suddenly.

Seeing that Wei Ning was trying to smooth things over, Grandma Wei had no choice but to nod.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiuya stood up in surprise, hurriedly went to the kitchen and brought out half a bowl of noodles, put them in front of Grandma Wei with both hands, and looked at Wei Ning gratefully when Grandma Wei ate, and the big stone in Wei Cheng's heart finally came out. landed.

After dinner, Zhao Xiuya pulled Wei Ning to prevent him from washing the dishes, and went into the kitchen by herself, saying that Wei Ning could sit in the garden if he had nothing to do, because she had grown a lot of flowers, or went out to see if there were old classmates who wanted to get in touch.

Seeing how Grandma Wei was pulling Wei Cheng to say something, Wei Ning stepped out of the main house and sat down in the yard. In front of him was a field of common camellias, crabapples, etc., and there were two clusters of roses on the side, which were growing gratifyingly. Very comfortable, maybe this is the breath of life my father has been pursuing.

At noon, Grandma Wei took the lead to direct the preparations for the New Year. Zhao Xiuya was too old to move, so she sat aside and picked off the rotten leaves of shallots and leeks. Wei Cheng then cuts and adds minced meat stuffing, and Grandma Wei is in charge of making dumplings at the end of the assembly line.

From time to time, children from neighbors would come to visit us, most of them were for the preserved fruit of this family. Zhao Xiuya was a little serious because of morning sickness, and Wei Cheng didn’t let her get tired. It was barely eaten, but the taste became better and better later, so I dried a lot and kept it at home, and grabbed a handful for children when they came over.

When it was time for dinner in the evening, Wei Cheng and Zhao Xiuya had been living together for so many years. This time, Wei Ning and Grandma Wei came over with great difficulty. The couple were pleasantly surprised and each wrapped a big red envelope for Wei Ning and Wei Ning. Ning shied away and refused to accept it, but Grandma Wei insisted on accepting it, so Wei Ning had no choice but to take it and thank you sincerely.

Everyone was very satisfied with the meal. During the period, Wei Ning also received New Year greeting text messages from his roommates. Wei Ning politely replied one by one. After thinking about it, he also wrote to He Qian. He Qian and Gu Fan also sent messages Both He Qian and Gu Fan responded quickly to the New Year's greeting text message, but He Qianshu should still be busy.

Putting the phone away, Wei Ning went to boil water for grandma to soak her feet. Wei Cheng met him and asked where the medicine pack came from. Wei Ning replied that it was prescribed by Grandpa Gu Fan. It took almost a month and the effect was very good.

Hearing this, Wei Cheng couldn't help but feel ashamed. Over the years, he has visited Wei Ning and his mother a few times a year. He neither fulfilled his responsibilities as a father nor fulfilled his responsibilities as a son, but he also felt sorry for Wei Ning. Proud to have grown into such a sensible and outstanding person.

Zhao Xiuya stood quietly aside, holding Wei Cheng's hand to express comfort.

It is customary to keep the year old on the night of the new year, but Zhao Xiuya is pregnant and Grandma Wei is getting old again, so only Wei Cheng and Wei Ning and his son sat down for a while that night. Wei Cheng asked Wei Ning how life in school was, If you have any plans, Wei Ning also replied calmly, and will try to stay in school in the future.

Wei Cheng was very satisfied with what he heard, and drank another glass of wine happily. Wei Ning saw that it was late, and Aunt Zhao also needed someone to take care of him, so he persuaded Wei Cheng to go back to sleep, and then went back to the room.

Although Wei Ning hasn't been back in this house for a long time, Wei Ning's room has been kept, and it is still very clean after so long. The light blue bedding and curtains, it seems that Zhao Xiuya asked Wei Cheng to arrange it.

He lay down for a long time but didn't fall asleep, the sound of firecrackers and fireworks outside, a sound he hadn't heard for a long time, Wei Ning thought he would still mind coming here as before, but now he felt completely relieved.

Or it may be because people have experienced independence and grown a lot, or it may be because, seeing He Qianshu's heavy life experience and accepting this unfair treatment calmly, Wei Ning felt that he was too narrow-minded and relaxed his mind.

No matter what the reason is, Wei Ning is very grateful for being so peaceful and relaxed right now.
