Chapter 63 The Warmth of Home
…
Dad was stunned, looked up with a surprised expression, and his lips were trembling, not knowing what to say.
"What?" Mom rushed out of the kitchen wearing an apron and carrying a pair of scissors. She looked at Wang Yan with surprise, "Son, son."
"Haha, Dad, Mom." Wang Yan raised his hand with a wry smile, "Your handsome son is back, don't be so surprised, right? Let me go in and put things away first."
"Huh? Why have you grown taller all of a sudden? Have you turned white and handsome?" As expected of a mother, even though her son has changed a lot, she still recognizes him immediately.
"Mom, you are really my own mother. You recognized your son at a glance. How about it? I haven't seen you for more than half a year. Has your son changed much?" Wang Yan smiled playfully.
"Nonsense, I gave birth to you in ten months of pregnancy, and you can recognize you even if you turn into ashes." My mother said with a proud look on her face.
Uh, that's what I'm saying...
Wang Yan looked embarrassed and said, "Mom, if you are blocking the door with scissors, are you not welcoming your son home?"
"You are so young, do you want your mother to invite you back to your home? Come in quickly." Mom raised her scissors, "Old Wang, don't be stupid, hurry up and help your son carry things. You said you kid, Come back as soon as you come back, and you’re carrying so many things! Are you so excited about the money in your wallet?"
As expected of my mother, she still spoke like a machine gun, and the firepower was so fierce that the father and son took it all in.
Dad quickly took the things over. Just as Wang Yan was about to go in, he heard his mother yell again, "Change slippers!" Your mother just mopped the floor this morning.
Wang Yan honestly changed into slippers and put things in the living room with his father.
Then the family of three sat down around the sofa and coffee table. My mother even directly brought a small stool and sat on the edge of the coffee table. She looked through the gifts her son had brought back and raised her eyebrows as she looked at them: "Wang Yan, you eat I feel so full that I feel so full. How much does it cost to buy so many high-end nutritional supplements?"
Indeed, Wang Yan spent tens of thousands on gifts this time, and they were all high-end products such as cordyceps and bird's nests.
"Mom, it's not much money. My son has now entered a good employer and has good welfare benefits. Why don't you, as a son, show me your respect?" Wang Yan said with a playful smile, "By the way, Mom. This is Xiaoxue. Xiaoxue Come and say hello to your mother."
"Zhizhicha~" Xiaoxue jumped on the coffee table and waved her paws to her mother to say hello.
"Hey, son, your little pet is very cute and very spiritual." The mother was suddenly attracted by the attraction, and she happily took Xiaoxue over and stroked it a few times.
Xiaoxue did a good job and successfully attracted the fire.
"Dad, these cartons of cigarettes, two bottles of wine and a few jars of Longjing tea were given to you by Director Feng, the leader of our unit." Wang Yan smiled and gave the cigarettes and tea to his father.
"Haha." Dad blushed and rubbed his hands, opened a can of Longjing tea and took a sniff, looking satisfied and excited. He usually likes to drink tea, but his family conditions are average, so he only drinks ordinary tea. Occasionally, I would get some good tea, but I would hide it and be reluctant to drink it. I would not take it out until guests came.
"Director Feng? Is this the leader who praised you so much when he called last time?" Mom said with bright eyes.
"Well, it's his old man." Wang Yan took out another exquisite gift box and said, "Mom, this is a set of skin care products that our Director Zhao asked me to bring you when he knew I was coming back."
My mother was surprised and delighted and said, "Is this imported? The packaging is so beautiful." She usually works too hard and almost neglects skin care, just wiping her face with some cheap and affordable skin care products. .
"Mom, you use it first. If the effect is good, Director Zhao said that it will be mailed to you directly." Wang Yan said with a smile.
"This..." Mom said hesitantly, "Son, aren't we supposed to give gifts to the leaders? Why do the leaders of your unit give us gifts? Isn't this bad?"
"Mom, don't worry." Wang Yan said seriously, "Because your son has performed well, the leaders like me very much. By the way, let me show you my work ID."
Wang Yan took out a beautifully crafted certificate and showed it to his parents. The title written on it was Commissioner of the East China Inspection Team of the State Council. There is Wang Yan's photo on it, and there are steel seals and various big red seals.
This document is of course genuine and is Wang Yan's publicly announced identity. And he really has the authority of the inspection team commissioner, if he is willing to do it...
Another ID card from the National African Affairs Bureau is inconvenient to take out for fear of scaring my parents.
Seeing the joy and excitement on his parents' faces and the irrepressible pride, Wang Yan felt that all the hard work was worth it.
"Son, you must do it well." There seemed to be tears in my mother's eyes. Her son is now so promising, which makes her happy and feels that all the years of hard work have been worth it.
"Well, do your best." Dad also patted Wang Yan on the shoulder and encouraged him.
"You two chat for a while, I'll go to the market to buy some ingredients, and mom will make your favorite shrimp wontons." Mom turned away and secretly wiped her tears.
"Mom, let's not be busy." Wang Yan said hurriedly, "Let's go out to eat."
"That's okay. It's rare for you to go home once, and you must eat at home first." After my mother said that, she picked up a shopping bag and went out in a hurry.
Well, Wang Yan had no choice but to let her express her maternal love to her heart's content.
Made a pot of tea.
The two men set up a chessboard on the balcony and played chess while drinking tea.
His father didn't talk much, but Wang Yan knew that his father had given his all as a man to this family.
After several comprehensive evolutions, Wang Yan has also made great progress in terms of memory, logical analysis and other intellectual factors, and his chess ability has naturally also been greatly improved.
But when playing chess with his father, Wang Yan racked his brains to play several chess games and lost beautifully, which made his father very happy.
My mother, who had been out for more than half an hour, finally came back. As soon as she came back, she shouted: "Old Wang, Lao Wang, come here and peel the shrimps. Son, go take a bath, change into more energetic clothes, and wait to eat wontons later." That’s it.”
Dad abandoned the chess game and went to peel shrimps.
Wang Yan was puzzled, since when did the family have so many rules that they have to take a shower and change clothes after eating? But you still have to listen to what your mother says honestly.
I ran to the car and grabbed a change of clothes, took a shower, and changed into a clean white T-shirt, brown shorts, and a pair of white sneakers.
The whole person looked in good spirits, clean and sunny.
I wanted to go to the kitchen to help, but my mother drove me to the living room to eat watermelon and watch TV. But what the TV station was broadcasting were all kinds of romantic dramas about parents, or various reality shows. Wang Yan looked a little bored and went to the balcony to smoke.
His hearing was very good, and the sound of his mother chopping meat aggressively in the kitchen could not be heard. At the same time, my mother's nagging voice came: "Old Wang, I heard that the old Zhou family's son went to study abroad?"
"Yeah." Dad was peeling shrimps aside.
"Humph, the company is losing money every year, but he, the general dispatcher, actually has so much money to send his children to study abroad?" My mother said in an unconvinced voice, "That kid is just such a fool, and he can't make a living even if he studies abroad. "
"You, please stop saying a few words." Dad persuaded in a low voice, "It is said that it doesn't look good on the ears of the old Zhou family."
"What? Are the leaders in the factory trying to collect money from their families, and why don't you want me to nag you?" My mother chopped the minced meat in a louder voice, and Ma Tai said, "Isn't this all because of you? When you and the guy next door, Lao Li, were fighting for the job of workshop director, I said that I would go to the factory director's house to give some gifts and walk around, but you, on the other hand, stubbornly tried to suppress me."
"No, Lao Li is now prosperous. His son's wedding house was bought next to the wetland ecological reserve. It is a luxury apartment with three bedrooms and two living rooms."
"Didn't you see that Lao Li's daughter-in-law next door always brags about her future daughter-in-law when she meets me? What kind of establishment is there in the public institution? She is pretty. There are two or three houses in the house. The woman's dowry is just a three-series BMW. . Damn, I’ve heard about it a long time ago. Lao Li’s family gave out a gift of 880,000 yuan, which is enough to buy two and a half three-series BMWs. Where did all that money come from?”
Dad lowered his head, his face flushed a little, and let his mother keep talking. He just lit a cigarette and peeled shrimps without saying a word.
"If you smoke, smoke, you will smoke." The more my mother said, the angrier she became. With a bang, the kitchen knife chopped directly on the headboard of the pier, causing a slight tremor.
Dad shuddered and quickly put out his cigarette.
My mother was still angry, so she turned around and pinched her father, "I blame you for hurting our son."
Wang Yan on the balcony was hesitating whether he should go back to save his father from the fire or water. My mother suddenly said again: "I don't care this time, the person that the wife of the old Ye family has arranged for our son is about to come true. Just take those bird's nests and cordyceps with me, go to Factory Manager Guo's house, and give them to us two." I bought out my seniority and raised the price. This time, I can’t do anything to prevent my son from having money to buy a wedding house and cheating his wife.”
What! ?
The cigarette in Wang Yan's mouth fell out.
