Go home, a familiar yet unfamiliar word. I have lived in Hangzhou for ten years, but I only go home very rarely.
It seems that after adulthood, I have become busier and busier, and my relationship with my original family members has also gone from talking about everything to hiding it, and it seems like there is a wall between them.
On the day of his rebirth, he could have taken the return ticket to go back and meet those people who still existed in his memory and could still meet him, but Zhou Yan was not ready at that time.
But it's not too late. Bringing porridge back can also help the family take care of themselves and help the two elders recognize a daughter.
Lin Chouchu used to live with his grandma. Later, his grandma passed away and was transferred to an orphanage. Since then, he has had no relatives.
Since he can give Qi Zhou a home, Zhou Yan will not be stingy. This is a girl with the purest soul and deserves the best care.
Looking at the girl's beautiful sleeping face, Zhou Yan's eyes became a little more doting. He moved very gently and pushed the few strands of hair that had fallen naughtily on Porridge's forehead behind her ears, then quietly held her hand and played with it slowly.
Xiao Congee's hands were smooth and comfortable to touch. Zhou Yan just kept holding her hands, and would lick her green-white fingers from time to time.
Lin Congru's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she noticed Zhou Yan playing with her hand, but did not open her eyes. She even passed her small hand to Zhou Yan so that Zhou Yan could hold her more easily.
Zhou Yan smiled, his sister Lin had always been so well-behaved. He didn't disturb Congee's sleep too much. He just played with it for a while, then put his little hand back on Lin Congee's leg. At the same time, he took off his coat, covered Lin Congee's body, and covered it up.
"Brother." Lin Chouchi opened her beautiful eyes and called Zhou Yan gently.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Yan asked with a smile.
"Don't catch a cold." Lin Congru whispered. She was covered with Zhou Yan's black coat, like a little quail still in swaddling clothes, but the little quail was not as cute as the porridge.
Zhou Yan stretched out his hand and pinched her porcelain-white face, feeling her lubricating touch again, and joked: "If you catch a cold, give it to me."
"No kidding." Lin Congru muttered, looking away from Zhou Yan and looking out the window.
"It'll be there soon." Zhou Yan said.
"Yeah." Lin Congru responded softly.
"Are you nervous?" Zhou Yan asked.
"Um."
"My parents will be your parents from now on. They are easy to talk to." Zhou Yan said softly.
"Um."
"Does my sister only say yes?" Zhou Yan asked with a smile.
"Yeah." Lin Churro looked at Zhou Yan. This seemed to be the first time Zhou Yan formally called her sister. There seemed to be some unspeakable meaning in her natural and pure eyes, such as happiness or expectation.
Originally she didn't understand the meaning of her brother, but maybe after Zhou Yan actually called her sister, Lin Congru somewhat understood.
Maybe it's reliance, maybe companionship, maybe it's emotion. The moment the relationship is established, it becomes more sincere.
Lin Churro reached out his hand from Zhou Yan's coat, and took the initiative to hold Zhou Yan's hand this time. Although when the two hands touched, Lin Churro still trembled slightly, similar to a conditioned reflex, but after that, he grabbed Zhou Yan's hand. Tighter.
It's like catching a light in the darkness. This was the first time that Zhou Yan felt Sister Lin's initiative. It was the first time that her smooth little hands actively covered his big hands, as if to wrap his hands, her little palms were gradually closing.
Zhou Yan also shook his hand into a fist and asked her to hold it.
"Zhou Zhou, you will be my brother from now on, a very dear brother." For the first time, Lin Conzu completely said the words that were very touching to Zhou Yan. Her beautiful eyes looked at Zhou Yan intently. , as if he had made some kind of determination.
"Isn't it the same thing before?" Zhou Yan smiled slightly, and Xiao Porridge's sudden sense of ritual was also very interesting.
Even a sense of security, he, a big boy, actually felt a sense of security from Xiao Congee. Zhou Yan grabbed Lin Congru's little hand with his backhand to prevent her from breaking free. At the same time, he reached into his coat and grabbed her other peaceful hand. He also said to her solemnly like Lin Congru: "You are also my Zhou Yan's sister, a very dear sister." His voice was very soft, but Lin Congru heard it. The corners of her lips pursed, small dimples appeared, and there was something written on her beautiful face. It is full of lightness and joy, just like the mimosa among the trees, glowing with life because of a ray of sunlight shining through the gaps in the leaves.
As simple as she is, she can express many emotions that should be hidden in her heart just by listening to Zhou Yan's words.
"I may have many girlfriends in the future." Zhou Yan said softly. Lin Congru's eyes trembled slightly, she didn't know the reason why Zhou Yan said this.
Should he confess to her, explain to her, or should he let her be his girlfriend in the future? Lin Congru subconsciously thought that this was wrong, even though she would have an instinctive obedience to Zhou Yan, just like a little beast meeting its trainer.
"You are not my girlfriend, and you will never be my girlfriend," Zhou Yan said again. Lin Congru felt that her brother was playing with her emotions.
She didn't want to be her brother's girlfriend, but hearing this sentence made her feel uncomfortable. Xu Shi expressed his inner feelings, but he couldn't express them sincerely. Zhou Yan took out his cell phone, typed a sentence on the memo, and then handed the phone to Lin Congru.
Lin Congru also saw what Zhou Yan wrote on the memo. Because I said, you are my Zhou Yan’s sister, my only sister in this life. No one can replace you, and no one can bully you. I will protect you for the rest of my life.
Is this a promise? It was Zhou Yan's promise to her. A string in Lin Congeu's heart was gently plucked.
She didn't seem to feel uncomfortable anymore, she even felt bathed in the sun, with grassy fields and fresh air everywhere. She could even run freely in a world that belonged only to her.
Perhaps, there is also a brother named Zhou Yan. Lin Congeu also wrote a sentence in the memo and handed it to Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan smiled knowingly, took the phone, and saw what Lin Congru wrote to her. The way the two people communicate now is very similar to when they were walking together on the campus trail. They were obviously very close to each other, but they used QQ to talk.
You are Zhouzhou of Congee, you are Congee’s brother, the only brother in this life. No one can replace you, and no one can bully you. I will protect you for the rest of my life.
Zhou Yan looked at Lin Congru's words, looked up and saw Lin Congru's determined look, and smiled slightly. Obviously the conversation between two people would look childish to others.
But in each other's eyes, it is so real and powerful, it is something called a promise.
Zhou Yan held her head, leaned over, and pressed his forehead against hers, feeling the unique temperature of her body and the delicious body fragrance that was unique to her. Zhou Yan felt particularly peaceful. And, peace.
Lin Churro obediently closed his eyes, and even bowed his head slightly, getting closer to Zhou Yan. You are my medicine, porridge.
Zhou Yan said to himself. The two quickly let go, and Zhou Yan put his coat up. Even if he knew that Lin Congru was in good health, he would treat her like a weak sister and take care of her.
Congee would not resist this concern, and he was particularly happy with it.
"We'll be home soon. Let's sleep a little longer." Zhou Yan held Lin Congru's little hand and said softly.
"Okay, brother." Miss Lin said softly, her voice seemed to be freed from shyness and nervousness, and there was something called dependence in her voice.
..... At 2:20 p.m., the train arrived at the station. Zhou Yan carried his and Lin Churri's suitcases and walked out of the carriage. Lin Churro grabbed Zhou Yan's clothes, as if he was the only one in the crowded crowd. rely on.
Taicheng, here we come. This is a third-tier coastal city in Zhejiang Province. It is also the hometown of Zhou Yan. Looking at the words Taicheng Station on the stop sign, Zhou Yan felt inexplicably friendly.
He didn't go home alone, he also brought back a girl. I don’t know if Xu Xiujuan and Zhou Jun knew that he was abducting girls.
But compared with his many girlfriends, it doesn't seem too much to have a god-sister and a god-daughter.
This time when he returned home, Zhou Yan did not notify anyone, including Tang Tang, and did not know that he was going home today.
However, an explanation was inevitable. After all, he brought home a girl whom Tang Tang didn't know. With Tang Tang's temperament, if he didn't explain clearly to her, he might really feel uneasy.
"Let's go." Zhou Yan said to Lin Churri. He thought for a while and then said: "You will meet a sister later, Congee, who is my girlfriend. Then just call her Sister Tangtang."
"Okay." Lin Congru responded gently, but at this time, she took the initiative to carry her suitcase in her hand, and then took Zhou Yan's free hand.
Zhou Yan smiled: "Do you want to carry your luggage by yourself?"
"I want to hold my brother's hand." Lin Congru whispered.
"Just hold hands." Zhou Yan said casually, holding his sister's little hand tightly. The two people walked out of the station holding hands, more like lovers than brothers and sisters.
The girl has a side parted hair and wears a red peaked cap, which does not cover up her flawless beauty. Especially the black hair that is open to both sides gives her a special temperament and is very beautiful.
The boy is wearing a black peaked cap with sharp edges, a casual T-shirt and trousers, and a black jacket and coat. He is handsome and a little bit ruffian at the same time.
A talented man and a beautiful woman are nothing more than this. Soon, Zhou Yan took Lin Churri out of the train station in Taicheng. The sky was blue and cloudless. Outside the train station, Volkswagen taxis were lined up. There was a big sign on the front of the taxis indicating how much it would cost to go where.
Zhou Yan quickly found a taxi to Dongxiang Town, which cost 80 yuan. Because he was going home, Zhou Yan had enough cash with him, so he gave the driver one hundred: "No need to look for it, just drive slower on the road."
"Okay." The driver, a middle-aged uncle, happily accepted the money and opened the back door for Zhou Yan and Lin Churri.
In the taxi, Lin Churri cuddled up next to Zhou Yan.
"I'm just asking Ning Wai. Are you from here?" the driver asked with a smile in dialect.
"Well, give it a rest. People here," Zhou Yan responded in dialect. It had been a long time since he had spoken in dialect, and now that he heard it, Zhou Yan felt like he was in a dream.
Words about hometown and people in hometown can always evoke emotions deep in memory.
"My girlfriend is pretty." The driver smiled and complimented Lin Churri in dialect.
"My sister." Zhou Yan said.
"It was a blind mistake, don't hang up." The driver apologized and concentrated on driving. Because he was charged twenty yuan more, the driver followed Zhou Yan's request and drove very slowly along the way.
The driver said nothing, and Zhou Yan enjoyed a rare quiet moment with Lin Congru. There will definitely not be a car as comfortable as a car on the train, and it is difficult to stretch out. After five hours of train ride, Zhou Yan guessed that Lin Congru was also very tired, so he did not disturb her anymore and let her sleep for a while while he looked out the window. , belonging to the small third tier ten years ago.
Not far from the train station, there is a gravel road. When a car rolls over it, dust will be kicked up. From time to time, you will encounter potholes caused by large cars running over it. However, the driver is obviously a veteran and avoids big and small potholes along the way. .
After driving off the gravel road, we passed a chemical plant, where large heat-dissipating reactors stood. At the same time, there was a strong chemical smell that filled the car. After driving for a while, the smell dissipated.
Zhou Yan still remembers that when he was a child, his parents would take him on a motorcycle all the way south along Huanjiang Road. From Dongxiang to Xixiang, they would pass by the chemical plant and pass the gravel road just rolled over. After that, they would go to the real The city center is located in Linhai Fucheng, where there is also the Great Wall, anti-Japanese anti-Japanese relics, and a fossil museum.
Later, the city center was moved to Dongxiang, and Xixiang was never visited again. I used to go hiking along the road from Dongxiang to Xixiang.
Now, it is the way back from Xixiang to Dongxiang, the way home. Lin Chouchu didn't know when she woke up. She was a girl from Sichuan and Chongqing. She came to this third-tier coastal city for the first time. She was so curious about everything and full of desire to explore.
She rolled down the car window, put her hands on the edge of the window, and looked at the scenery along the way. At this time, the car was traveling on the road along the river, with one side next to the mountains and the other side next to the river. There were ferries and bridges on the river.
Lin Congru looked at these scenery without blinking. As if to remember it in my mind. Perhaps it was Zhou Yan's hometown, and Lin Churui was particularly fascinated by it.
The river breeze blew across her face, and her long hair moved gently with the wind. Occasionally, a strand of hair hit Zhou Yan's face. Zhou Yan became more playful, biting a strand of Lin Congru's hair and tasting her hair. The fragrance inside.
Lin Congru also noticed that Zhou Yan was playing with her hair, but she still looked at the scenery outside the window, as if no matter what Zhou Yan did to her, she would not resist.
Zhou Yan came close to Lin Congru's ear, put his arm around her waist, and said softly: "This will be your hometown from now on."
"Yeah." Lin Congru responded softly, her little head unconsciously leaning against Zhou Yan's body again.
The taxi soon arrived in the city. Zhou Yan also saw a flower bed at an intersection that was repeatedly demolished and later turned into sculptures. He then passed a school, the Municipal No. 2 Middle School.
That was the place where he, Tang Tang, and Yan Mo once studied, both in junior high school and high school. It wasn't until he returned home that Zhou Yan clearly realized that he couldn't suppress the emotions in his heart.
This is the emotion after returning to my hometown, which cannot be easily erased by time. Soon, the car drove to Dongxiang Town.
There are fewer cars and more rickshaws traveling through the streets and alleys. At this time, rickshaws had not been renovated because they affected the city's appearance, and they did not use electric motors. They were all pedal-operated and were a hard-working job.
Zhou Yan and Lin Chouchu got out of the car early and walked on the street. A rickshaw asked if he wanted a ride, but Zhou Yan said no.
There are old buildings along the way. Later, they would have a red word "DEMOlish" on the wall and then demolish them. Zhou Yan remembered that this place would later be connected to the main road and lead to the airport.
They are all very familiar, and they are all things in my memory. Lin Churri was held by Zhou Yan's hand all the way, and he looked around curiously.
Arriving home soon. The street is still the same street, the buildings are still the same two buildings, and even the broken street lights are still standing there peacefully.
Zhou Yan stood at the door of his house. He originally wanted to knock on the door gently, but when he raised his hand,
There was no response in the voice of "Dongdong". Zhou Yan shouted directly: "Mom, I'm back."
"Creak." The door opened, and it was Tang Tang who opened the door. She was holding a lollipop in her mouth, wearing a pleated dress, and looked at Zhou Yan and Lin Congee blankly.
Zhou Yan:? ? ?
