Chapter 4 The taste of home has not changed
"Hehehe...hahaha...hahaha..."
The girl's silver bell-like laughter echoed in the yard. From the laughter, Lu Xiaoxi had a very happy time with her grandfather.
Holding the watermelon in his hands, he sat on a bamboo chair under the big persimmon tree.
Then put two small feet in the well water in a large basin.
That cool feeling really makes Lu Xiaoxi feel so comfortable in her children's shoes.
Listen to my grandfather telling interesting stories.
Sometimes I raise my little feet and pour water on my grandfather's body.
Grandpa wouldn't blame Lu Xiaoxi at all.
And grandpa would also carefully play with Lu Xiaoxi.
This feeling made Lu Xiaoxi's children's shoes feel very interesting.
Seeing that his daughter and grandfather were having a lot of fun, Lu Chen carried two big boxes and other salutes, he quickly followed his mother into the house.
Sun Meiling put down the vegetable basket first and seized the time to clean up his room for Lu Chen.
Stepping into the room, scenes of the past appeared before Lu Chen.
Since entering elementary school, Lu Chen has lived in this room.
The large wardrobe in the room was covered with familiar stickers such as Slam Dunk, Doctor Cats, Saint Seiya and so on.
On the wall of the bed's internal test, there were also a row of large colorful posters.
There are: Sakuragi Hanamichi, Claude Streff, Tifa Lockhart, Vincent Valen, Sephiros, Yuna, Sakuragi Hanamichi, and so on.
At this moment, I stepped into a room that I had been away for a long time, as if these posters that had accompanied me were also waiting for me to come back.
Lu Chen looked over one by one, and his eyes moved to the desk leaning against the window.
There was a whole piece of glass pressed on the desk. In order to prevent the edges and corners, they were wrapped with white tape.
The luggage in my hand walked quickly to the desk and saw under the glass plate pressing down on the photos of myself from elementary school to university.
There are graduation photos from elementary school to university, and there are also photos taken after the game by Lu Chen since childhood.
Among them, the one placed in the middle of the desk is a family portrait of Lu Chen and his parents and a family of three.
That was when Lu Chen was admitted to the Conservatory of Music and his family went to the photo studio to take photos.
There was no other thing on the table, just some books that Lu Chen liked before and the desk lamp that had been with Lu Chen for many years.
It's still the old-fashioned metal drawstring table lamp.
The gauze lamp on it was illuminated by Lu Chen, who was naughty when he was a child.
Then he used a large sticker for all the slam dunks.
Everything has not changed, everything still looks like when it was leaving.
The glass plate of the desk was very clean and there was no dust.
There was no smell of mold in the room.
The quilts and sheets on the bed also seem to have been replaced.
The walls and every cabinet on the ground are very clean and tidy.
Seeing all this, Lu Chen knew that his mother cleaned and cleaned the room every day.
Maybe in the mother's heart, the son will always come back, worried that his son will have no place to live when he comes back, so he cleans up the house for his son once a day.
But what my mother didn't expect was that this kind of cleaning lasted for ten years.
"Can you father and daughter live here? If you feel crowded, I'll clean up your dad's study next door, clean up the things tomorrow, and make them come out for Xiaoxi to live there."
Immersed in the aftertaste of the familiar room, my mother's voice came from behind, causing Lu Chen's thoughts to be pulled back in an instant.
Looking back, I saw my mother rolling up her sleeves and holding a newly washed rag in her hand.
Lu Chen suddenly stepped forward and hugged his mother.
He said softly in his mother's ear.
"Mom, I'm sorry."
This sentence "I'm sorry" was late, but my mother didn't mind.
Sun Meiling felt really happy when she was hugged by her son.
After waiting for ten years, my son finally returned home.
The mother and son hugged each other like this.
I don't know how long it took to hug me.
Finally, Sun Meiling recovered and reached out and slowly pushed Lu Chen away.
"Oh, stinky brat, what are you doing? It's hot, don't hug me, okay?"
Lu Chen saw his mother touching her face with her sleeves and tears mixed with sweat.
He reached out and took the clean rag from his mother's hand.
"Mom, let me do it. This room is quite big. Xiaoxi is still young now, so let her live with me. Why don't you come here to take her to sleep at night? I can sleep in my dad's study."
While talking, Lu Chen became busy.
Follow the mother's usual actions in memory.
"Me, can I take Xiao Xixi to sleep? Will she be willing?"
Start cleaning from the desk first.
Rubbing the desk, Lu Chen smiled and said, "Yes, Xiaoxi is very obedient. She kept talking to me on the way back, saying that she would meet grandma and grandpa. You can take her to bed at night, and it's absolutely fine."
After my son said this, he looked outside through the window and saw a girl playing happily with his grandfather under the tall persimmon tree in the courtyard.
Sun Meiling's eyes showed endless love.
It's really like holding the little girl in her arms and being intimate.
After wiping the desk, Lu Chen started to wipe the outer door of the cabinet and the mirror of the large wardrobe.
Finally, I gently wiped the posters on the wall.
After the whole process, I looked at the rag on my hand and there was almost no dust.
I wiped the room roughly and finally saw the air conditioner covered with cloth hanging on the wall beside the window of the room.
Take off your shoes and climb onto the bed, and take off the cloth covered with the air conditioner.
Lu Chen couldn't help complaining to his mother.
"How many years have you been using this air conditioner? Do you and my dad usually don't use it? It's not good for air conditioners if you haven't used it for too long. If I'm not at home, you and my dad will sleep in this room. Why waste the air conditioner?"
When my son said that, he would bring back Sun Meiling's gaze to her granddaughter.
First, open the window of the room quickly.
"Oh, look at the smell on your feet. My daughter is so big. Your feet are still so scented. Hurry up, come down and wash them."
While speaking, he pulled Lu Chen off the bed and reached out to take the rag from his hand and the cloth cover covering the air conditioner.
Then Sun Meiling went to the shoe cabinet at home to search again.
I found a pair of slippers that Lu Chen had worn at home and threw them over.
"Give you slippers, hurry up and wash your smelly feet. Remember to use soap."
Looking at the black hole shoes that my mother threw at her feet.
There are stickers on it that are soaked that they cannot be seen clearly.
Lu Chen understood that after ten years of leaving home, his parents never threw away everything he used and kept it well for him. They were waiting for their son to come back.
Unconsciously my eyes became moist.
Walked over and put on hole slippers.
Looking at the back of my mother walking towards the bathroom at home.
Lu Chen couldn't help but open his mouth and wanted to say something.
But in the end, I didn't say what I was about.
First move the things you carried back to the corner of the room, and walk to the small courtyard of your home wearing hole slippers.
Chapter completed!
