"Um."
Ji Mingze looks at Yu Xun.
The two men started talking.
"Brother, will your meeting last three days?"
Excluding the time of departure and return, the middle time is three days.
"The exchange meeting is only for one day. The other two days are spent visiting a newly opened branch factory in your provincial capital."
Yu Xun said, "I understand."
Ji Mingze said: "Xinyi City has developed well in recent years."
"Well, besides our provincial capital, it is the second largest city in our province."
"Did you come to this city often when you were a kid?"
"No, I'm all going to take the train."
"Don't you have a train station in your county?"
"Yes, but it is smaller, has fewer trains, and is more time-limited, so it is generally more convenient for us to go to Xinyi, and most of them go to Xinyi."
Ji Mingze nodded.
"Brother." Yu Xun asked again.
"Um."
"Have you been to our hometown many times?"
"No, I only went there once that year."
The happy Yu Xun was much more lively. The two of them chatted about this and that, with their mobile phones turned off.
At the same time, it was already 9:30 in the evening in the United States, and Qi Yao boarded a plane flying to the country.
Aunt's house.
Grandma gets up at dawn every day. She doesn’t sleep in when she gets older.
Regardless of the wind or snow, grandma gets up very early every day.
My aunt and uncle are even earlier. They have to get up at three or four in the morning to buy goods and go to the market to sell. The market opens at half past five.
At this time, grandma washed and hung up the family's clothes to save water and electricity, and the old man was reluctant to use the washing machine.
After the clothes of the whole family are washed, they go to cook breakfast in the pot. While the breakfast is cooking in the pot, they tidy up the house, mop the floor, and wipe the coffee table.
Then I went to the room to wake up the two children.
There is a different sky between here and City A. It is already very cold in the morning and evening. Yaochen and Dongdong sleep in the same bed.
The two children have a good relationship. They play together every night and refuse to be separated. They clamor to sleep together.
I have slept in the same bed for many days.
The children were tired from playing during the day, and the weather was cold. Grandma also let them sleep a little longer instead of asking them to get up early. She made breakfast before calling the two children in the room.
As soon as he got to the bedside, he saw that Yao Chen was already awake. The first thing he looked at when he opened his eyes was to look into the room. When he saw his grandma coming, he called her mom.
Grandma came over with a smile, took the clothes, lifted Yaochen up from the bed and sat down, and then told him while getting dressed:
"Mom is on the way. Mom will be here soon. Mom is taking a plane now, and the plane is flying in the sky."
Yao Chen pointed upward and said: "Hand machine."
right.
"airplane."
Fei Zi Yao Chen still couldn't change his mind.
"Mom takes a plane and will be home soon to see Yao Chen."
One old and one young, grandma said as she dressed Yao Chen in clothes, socks and shoes.
Then he put Yao Chen on the ground, and Dongdong had already woken up.
The first thing she saw when she opened her eyes was her little nephew. Grandma pointed to the ground, "Yao Chen is here."
Dongdong started laughing, and Yaochen came over and lay beside the bed, saying to Dongdong:
"Little cousin, my mother is on the mobile phone."
Children who speak in a milky voice also speak slowly.
After hearing this, Dongdong nodded and said, "My cousin is on the plane."
Grandma smiled and said, "Yes."
After putting on both children's clothes, they took one by each hand and went to the bathroom to wash their faces and brush their teeth.
Yao Chen still needs grandma to help with brushing, but Dongdong can do it by himself, but he likes to swallow toothpaste water, so the water grandma gives them to clean their teeth is always warm water.
Wash your face and apply fragrance. My child's skin is tender, but the wind has cracked my face.
"Put on the fragrant fragrance, your face will not be cold, and you can see your mother with the fragrant fragrance."
Grandma said while wiping Yao Chen.
Yao Chen was used to wiping, so he raised his little face and wiped it for his great-grandmother. After wiping it, he wiped it for Dongdong.
After applying Xiangxiang, I took the breakfast to the dining room and gave it to the two children.
Breakfast this morning was boiled eggs, boiled corn, and boiled sweet potatoes.
Two boiled eggs per person, one corn, and one sweet potato.
Dongdong already knows how to do everything by herself. Grandma peeled the eggs for Yao Chen. After peeling the eggs, she handed them to the child. Yao Chen took them and said, "Thank you, grandma."
Grandma smiled and said, "No thank you."
After eating the eggs, the corns were picked up and gnawed.
Yao Chen's little Yaya gnawed a little slower, but he was already able to eat it by himself.
The sweet potatoes are soft.
After eating, each person gets a box of pure milk.
After eating and wiping her mouth, grandma took the two children downstairs to play.
Also bring a twist car.
When we got downstairs, we naturally met a group of grandparents who were either out for exercise or taking care of their grandchildren, and they exchanged pleasantries again.
Everyone asked Yao Chen when her mother would arrive.
Yao Chen pointed his little finger to the sky and said, "Mom, put down the phone."
Everyone understood and said with a smile: "Oh, it turns out that Yao Chen's mother is on the plane. That's great. Yao Chen can see her mother soon!"
Yao Chen smiled again and narrowed his eyes.
Then, grandma took the two children to wait outside the community gate.
The news spread quickly. Even the barber shop and the canteen at the door knew that Yao Chen's mother was coming back, and they asked about her when they saw her.
Yao Chen also told everyone that his mother was on the phone.
Then the three of them didn't go anywhere else and just waited there.
While grandma chatted with the neighbors, the two children just played where they were.
Everyone passing by knew that Yao Chen's mother was coming back, and they all teased him.
Someone deliberately said: "Yaochen, don't wait for mom anymore. Let's go. Grandpa will take you to ride the rocking car."
Someone else said: "Yaochen, uncle will take you to buy KFC. What's your mother waiting for?"
"Yaochen, go to my house to play with Niuniu."
But no matter whether everyone is coaxing Yao Chen with food, playing games, or coaxing Yao Chen with puppies, Yao Chen refuses to leave this place and has to wait for his mother here.
Everyone laughed and was moved.
What child doesn't like his mother, and what child doesn't look forward to his mother.
This is just normal. In previous years, when the Chinese New Year was approaching, people would come to the gate of the community every day to wait for their parents.
In this small town, there are not many employment opportunities. Many young people go out to work, and their children are given to their grandparents.
At the vegetable market, my aunt and uncle were doing business quickly.
Today's guests asked as soon as they arrived: "Hey, there are fewer fish today than yesterday."
"Yes." My aunt said with a smile, "We will only sell it in the morning today. We won't come in the afternoon. My niece is coming back, and Yao Chen's uncle is coming too."
"Oh, that's an honored guest."
"No."
The aunt chatted with the customers while doing business.
Many of them are old customers. Even if they are here for the first time, they are from this small town. They all speak their hometown dialect and are friendly.
By nine o'clock, all the fish in the pond were sold out.
Originally, they had three pools in total, but today they only entered goods from one pool.
Now when we put the stall away and went back, my uncle drained the water from the pool, and my aunt wiped the stall clean, took off her special apron and put it in a bag.
Another bag contains fish that will be taken back later.
Then the two of them went to buy other vegetables.
"Rabbit, buy one of the wild rabbits."
"Well, there are also chickens, ducks, and beef. You have to buy these."
"purchase."
"I'll buy eels too, and bullfrogs..."
