Really fragrant open life

Chapter 1
The dim street lamps were lit up one by one, shining on the melting ice and snow, reflecting light slightly.The biting cold wind blows the snowflakes under the eaves, and it falls on people's bodies a bit cold, making it more difficult to live this early spring.

More than a month has passed since the New Year, and a group of children threw out the remaining "throwing cannons" at home, filling the air with the smell of saltpeter.

Occasionally, a few students who were in a hurry looked back at the children who were still playing enviously, and walked towards the school reluctantly.

Chengxi is considered an old district in TZ City, and its official name is Youcheng District, but the old people are used to calling it "Chengxi". Sometimes when they hail a taxi, they will shout "Go to Chengxi."

Needless to say, the driver knew where to go.

The west of the city is no better than the urban area of ​​Qinjin. The urban area of ​​Qinjin with wide roads and tall buildings is full of vitality. Several famous schools have also established branch campuses in the urban area of ​​Qinjin.

People living in Laotucheng District will also try to find something fresh, and often spend a long morning strolling around the shopping malls and supermarkets opened in the downtown area, but for the locals, the most suitable place is to West of the city.

"Crunch"!
Lin Chengnan closed the courtyard door and looked up at the completely dark sky.

The dog days of the third year of senior high school are not the days that people can live. They wake up earlier than chickens, go to bed later than dogs, practice questions that can’t be finished all day long, and have basic exams from time to time. There is also a big monthly exam every month. It's like a huge prison, and the huge exam pressure makes the students in it almost become lunatics.

Looking up at the road outside the courtyard gate, passers-by are riding bicycles in a hurry, vegetables can be seen everywhere in the baskets, and they can tell at a glance that they have just left work and are rushing back to cook.

Lin Chengnan's home is an old house, located in the south of the Communication Research Institute. In the past, there were few people in the research institute. When Mr. Lin was alive, he was considered the leader of the research institute, so he divided it into a small building.

For this, every year, some scientific research funds have to be raised for the city from above. Although not much is actually used for scientific research in the end, it is better than nothing.

The houses in the south are not the best, but with the opening of the national highway between the city-*li and the province-city, this once quiet area has become more and more prosperous. In addition, it is close to the western suburb park, dense forests, Thick mat-like green grass.

The house is a bit older, but the overall environment is really good, with a bit of history.

"Bang!"

Gently close the door, the warm as spring heat wave bursts in the room.

As a family community mainly composed of scientific research workers in the north, the family building of the scientific research institute has central heating, which is rare in TZ City in the south. Even many new buildings in the urban area of ​​Qinjin do not have central heating. Not to mention those old houses.

"I said little sister, my parents have been away for so many years, Xiao Nan is going to take the college entrance examination now, you have to think about his future, right?"

On the old sofa in the living room, a middle-aged woman with a somewhat familiar face was talking to her mother, Li Caixia.

"Your brother-in-law and I will not leave when we come back this time. We are thinking about not buying a new house. We also have feelings for our old house. If you say the number, sister will buy it. What do you think? "

Li Caixia was listening to her sister whom she hadn't seen for a long time, when she saw her son entering the house, she hurriedly greeted her, "Xiao Nan, you're back."

"This is Xiao Nan, so big!"

The guest looked at Lin Chengnan curiously, and his mother Li Caixia also introduced: "Xiao Nan, this is your aunt, please call someone."

After speaking, Li Caixia said to her sister Li Caifeng with some embarrassment: "The child only cares about going to school, and doesn't understand the world."

"Hello aunt!"

Lin Chengnan showed a smile like asking for a red envelope for the New Year, and called out obediently.

"Xiao Nan is really tall! Come with us, they are all big."

Li Caifeng agreed: "Caixia, you see that Xiaonan will take the college entrance examination in a few months, you should think about this matter carefully, your brother-in-law came back this time, and he also met a lot of big people in Shanghai, Fudan Jiaotong University and the like are not suitable. But it's not difficult for ordinary schools to say hello, don't you think?"

"Sister, let's talk about our business."

Li Caixia greeted her son: "Have you eaten?"

"I ate it on the way back, Mom, I'll go up and do the paper first."

As Lin Chengnan spoke, he slowly walked past this aunt whom he had never met before: "Aunt...I'll go to write...homework...for now."

But until Lin Chengnan walked up the stairs, he didn't wait for this aunt's meeting red envelope.

"This aunt is not generous!"

Before closing the door, Lin Chengnan was almost like a thief. He lay on the door and listened for a while, only to hear something coming from downstairs.

"My parents have been away for so many years, I don't want to sell this house. Sister, if you and your brother-in-law don't want to buy a house for the time being, you can live in it first, and I won't drive you away. Say yes!"

"I said Caixia, Xiao Nan is going to take the college entrance examination. Are you thinking that he will go to Shanghai in the future? Just go, can young people get used to it? Your brother-in-law and I will not treat you badly. You can give me the money again." Xiaonan buys a set, whether it is Pudong or Puxi, you can choose, the new house is not better than the old one!

I don't mean anything else, it's just that I grew up in that house, and I want to live there when I come back. Can't you satisfy my sister's wish? "

"Sister, I didn't say I wouldn't let you live here. If you want to live for a few months, I don't mind if you live for half a year or a year. If Xiao Nan has the opportunity to go to Shanghai to go to school in the future, let him stay. Just one room..."

"What if Xiao Nan doesn't do well in the exam? Let him go to Shanghai alone, where the cost of living is so high! I'm doing this for Xiao Nan's benefit."

"Let's talk about the child at that time. If you want to live in that house, I will give you the key later. Sister, what do you think?"

"I said, Caixia, why are you so stubborn? Your brother-in-law and I are also thinking about you and the children. You can't be like his father, you have to learn to choose! You see, it would be great if he stayed in Shanghai at the beginning. Go to Tongzhou, mix it up like this now!
Besides Xiao Nan's grades, I also know that it is difficult to go to Shanghai to go to school, unless you are in college, we bought this house, and your brother-in-law has a place to stay, so you can use more snacks, right? "

"My parents also agreed with Xiao Nan's father to stay in Tongzhou, otherwise, would they agree to our marriage? Besides, the children and grandchildren have their own blessings, so let him do whatever he wants, anyway, there is no shortage of food and clothing for him at home."

"I won't mention the past things. I get angry when I mention them. Why are you so big-hearted? Can you do whatever you want about your children's college entrance examination? Just tell me, I really want the house. I can live somewhere else. uncomfortable."

It was quiet downstairs for a while before Lin Chengnan heard his mother's voice: "Sister, you've been abroad for almost 20 years, don't you feel uncomfortable?"

The downstairs continued to be quiet, and after a while, I heard the voice of my aunt Li Caifeng with anger: "Don't talk about anything else, just tell me the number. You are not in the magic city anyway. Has the house been closed all the time?"

"I really said it!" Li Caixia pouted.

"you say!"

Li Caifeng waited impatiently for the answer, and then waited until Li Caixia stretched out three fingers.

"30 million!"

There was some joy in Li Caifeng's voice, but when she saw the other party shaking her head, the happy atmosphere stopped abruptly: "Li Caixia, are you crazy, 300 million? Why don't you grab it? How much did your brother-in-law and I earn after all these years abroad?" , you want my old life, right?"

"Sister, I said I wouldn't sell it, and if you disagree with letting you and your brother-in-law live for free, you insist on telling me the number, and you're still angry if I tell you."

The mother, who was still somewhat soft and weak before, now had such a flat voice, like a pebble dropped into the sea, and the water was not disturbed.

"I have rarely gone back to Magic City over the years. My parents were very fair to us at first. You took away all the cash at home and gave me a worthless house. Now almost 20 years have passed, and you are back and you want it again. I have a house. I, Li Caixia, are asking for a high price. Don’t you know, sister? I also have a family and a son.

If you want to live in that house, I agree. I will let you live there for free. I am sorry for you.I said from the beginning that I wouldn’t sell it, but you didn’t say enough on the phone. Now when I come home, I still say the same thing. The house is not for sale, so you have to keep saying it. I, Li Caixia, am not a stingy person. "

The air downstairs seemed to freeze, and Li Caifeng was obviously choked to the point of being speechless. After a while, she said angrily, "If you don't want to sell it, tell me sooner. Why are you telling me what you have or what you don't, and deliberately disgusting me? ?

Li Caixia, you are amazing now, if you have the ability, you can guard the house for the rest of your life, don't beg us one day. "

……

"It's all a mess."

When Lin Chengnan heard it upstairs, he knew it was a dirty story from the parents, and then lost interest.

He is not an eighth wife, he is a pure man.

After a while, a "bang" was heard, and the door was slammed shut.

"What's the matter?"

Lin Chengnan ran down the stairs like a dog's leg, very agile.Just now she advertised that she is not a "bad woman," and now she has curiosity written on her face.

"You meddle in your own business, you monkey boy."

Mother hurriedly brought out the prepared dinner from the kitchen: "It's not cold yet, let's eat it alive."

"Roger that!"

Lin Chengnan and Ba Sheng had never eaten before, so they started picking up vegetables with their rice bowls in hand.

On the eve of the college entrance examination, this food is so good, it used to be paid for, how can the fast food outside be as rich as the one at home!There is a lot of meat, seafood, and seasonal vegetables. The third year of high school is not useless, at least the food in this family is gradually increasing!
