Reborn 1990: Running towards the life of a housewife
Chapter 169 Homecoming
Time flies so fast, and in the blink of an eye, more than half of this summer vacation has passed.
It's time for the children to go back. They have to prepare for the start of school, and Xiaoyue has to go to elementary school.
During this period, whenever they had free time, Shen Xiaojun and Lin Zhe took them everywhere to play, and they didn't miss anything they should play, see or eat.
Before leaving, the old couple wanted to see the two buildings they built outside the customs. After choosing a time, Shen Xiaojun and Lin Zhe took them there.
In just three months, the area at the end of the village has changed tremendously. Small high-rise buildings have risen from the original wasteland. They look much neater than the houses built before in the village, like a small community.
No one is willing to build any lower. Almost all buildings are seven or eight storeys. The construction period is fast, and it is already time to paint the exterior walls.
The two eight-story buildings built by Shen Xiaojun and others were the parts that were built quickly.
Duan Xia went into the building to take a look and then came out and said, "Why are the rooms so small? There are several toilets on one floor, and the toilets are also small. If you squat down, your buttocks will touch the wall."
Duan Xia had never lived in such a small house in her life. After entering, she found it difficult to turn around.
"It's not too small. The tiles haven't been laid yet. Once the paint is painted and the tiles are laid inside, it will look much more spacious."
Shen Wende walked carefully around the floors with his hands behind his back before coming down, "Are you planning to rent them all out?"
"Yes." Lin Zhe said with a smile, "Dad is still awesome! You can tell at a glance."
Shen Wende glanced at him and curled his lips, "It's impossible to live in so many houses."
"Even if it's for rent, it should be bigger." Duan Xia was afraid that she wouldn't be able to rent it out. Who would rent such a small house?
Shen Xiaojun did not go in with her child. There was still a lot of construction debris on the ground that had not been cleaned up. She was afraid that she would accidentally trip and fall. When her mother came out, she complained that the room was too small.
He said: "Oh my God, you have never worked outside and don't know the accommodation conditions outside. Of course a big house is better, but it is expensive! Who doesn't want to take money home to support themselves as a migrant worker?" How many people in a family are willing to eat, clothe and live in a good place? Most people are reluctant to live in a house like mine, but it is still too small for you.
During the two years when Lin Zhe and I first came out, we rented bungalows in urban villages, with a bed inside. You had to go outside to use the toilet. You could only cook at the door. When cooking, the house would be filled with fumes. When typhoon season comes, I don’t dare to sleep all night for fear that the storm will blow off the roof..."
Thinking back on those days, life was really hard, and Shen Xiaojun will never forget it for the rest of his life. But at that time, he didn't feel bitter because he had enough water to drink.
Now, beating her to death is no longer possible.
Duan Xia felt sad when she heard this, "Why didn't you tell me when I asked you?"
As soon as she asked, she said yes, everything is fine outside, good food, good housing, good clothes, and the man treats her well.
Shen Xiaojun hugged Yaoyao and lifted him up, his eyes curled up: "Report good news instead of bad news!"
Shen Wende hummed with his hands behind his back.
Lin Zhe sneered.
The couple agreed that Shen Xiaojun would go back together this time to sort out the family affairs, while Lin Zhe would continue to stay in Pengcheng. During this time, they were discussing a piece of land together, and they couldn't live without people here.
On the eve of leaving, Shen Xiaojun had a lot of words with Lin Zhe. The most important thing was that when speculating on land, don't forget to leave two pieces of land to build your own building.
Lin Zhe nodded helplessly. His wife was too obsessed with building buildings. They now had four buildings under construction. Zhuang Yan and Huang Fugui no longer wanted land for their homes, but wanted money.
Early the next morning, the family packed up and headed to the airport.
Lin Zhe sent them to the security checkpoint. Yaoyao was held in her arms by her mother. When she saw that her father had not come in, she waved anxiously, "Dad! Come here."
Lin Zhe couldn't hear what he was saying, but when he saw him waving, he raised his right arm and waved.
Seeing that he didn't move, Yaoyao became anxious and his little face wrinkled up, "Dad is not here."
Did mom forget?
Shen Xiaojun lifted him up and said, "Dad won't go back with us. Let's leave quickly. Grandpa and grandma are still waiting for us in front."
Shen Xiaojun looked back and saw Lin Zhe still standing outside. Regardless of whether he could see it or not, she waved her hand, turned around and walked in with Yaoyao in her arms.
Yaoyao kept looking back until his mother hugged him and turned a corner and could no longer see his father. He pursed his lips and cried "Wow"!
Duan Xia was holding Xiaoyue Xiaowei in front, but when she heard this, she stopped and stepped back, "What's going on?"
"I see his father didn't come in with him!" Shen Xiaojun was helpless.
Duan Xia smiled and said, "Children are like this. He wasn't awake when you left last time. After he woke up, he searched every room. He cried for a long time when he couldn't find it. He forgot about it after two days. "
Xiaowei grabbed Yaoyao's little feet, raised her head and said, "Mom, put your brother down, and we will lead him."
Yaoyao's face was full of tears, with tears and nose running out. Shen Xiaojun wiped his face, squatted down and put him on the ground.
Xiaowei and Xiaoyue each held one hand and led him away, comforting her little mouth: "Dad is making money. When he makes money, he will buy us many, many things...Dad You'll be back soon... Yaoyao, please be obedient!"
Yaoyao listened to her sister's words and followed obediently, with tears in her eyes, "Yes! Yaoyao...obey me."
After he finished speaking, the corners of his mouth became deflated again, and he tried his best to hold back, but at least he didn't cry again.
It’s so hard to bear it!
Seeing her son like this, Shen Xiaojun just wanted to laugh. After thinking about it, he quickly took out the camera in his bag, made two clicks, and captured the scene.
Show it to him when he grows up.
After getting off the plane in the provincial capital, the family didn't stay long and got on the bus back to Jincheng.
When we arrived at the door of the house, it was only 01:30 noon.
A neighbor saw them coming back and said hello: "Hey! Are you back? Where have you been? Why haven't you seen anyone for so long?"
Shen Xiaojun smiled and said: "I went to Pengcheng for a while. No, my child is about to start school, so I came back quickly."
We were just neighbors with normal relations, so we just chatted and laughed and got busy.
There was no one in the house for a long time, and there was a lot of dust. I raised a small table and drove the children into the yard. They did their homework and played. Shen Xiaojun and her parents started to do the homework for the whole house. clean.
Xiaoyue had little homework and had finished it long ago. She was playing in the yard with her younger brother. Only Xiaowei was still catching up on her unfinished summer vacation homework.
The teacher asked them to complete ten diary entries, but she was just playing around and only wrote five entries.
While she was cleaning at home, she quickly wrote two articles, one of which was less than a hundred words, and they were all about her fun in Pengcheng.
It's time for the children to go back. They have to prepare for the start of school, and Xiaoyue has to go to elementary school.
