Lin Xiao was injured and did not go to the company for several days. Xu Yan was also at home with him. Lin Xiao was working in the study while Xu Yan was reading on the sofa next to him.

There is quite a feeling of tranquility in the years. As the new year approaches, the weather is getting colder and colder. Xu Yan looks at the travel magazine in her hand, and then looks at Lin Xiao who is working hard.

There were some things in her heart that she didn't know whether to say or not. While she was wandering away, Lin Xiao walked over and she didn't even notice.

"What are you thinking about?" Lin Xiao asked.

Xu Yan raised her head, and Lin Xiao's figure enveloped her whole body. She thought for a moment and said, "The Chinese New Year is almost here and I want to go home."

After Xu Yan said this, Lin Xiao did not respond for a long time.

Just when Xu Yan thought he would not agree, Lin Xiao said: "Okay."

"Really?" Xu Yan was a little excited. She didn't expect Lin Xiao to agree so readily.

Lin Xiao sat next to Xu Yan and said, "Yanyan, I believe you."

Xu Yan leaned against Lin Xiao. She had an idea in her mind, but she was still hesitating.

Until the day she returned home, Xu Yan still did not express the thoughts in her heart.

Xu Yan is studying in college in Haicheng. Her hometown is in the south, a small town in the south, and the economy is not developed.

The family relationship is also simple, father, stepmother, stepmother's daughter.

My father opened a small restaurant, and my stepmother helped with the work. Her daughter was still in high school.

Xu Yan took the plane back, and when she got off the plane, she was picked up and dropped off by someone arranged by Lin Xiao.

Arriving at the entrance of the town, Xu Yan got out of the car and dragged her luggage to the door of her father's small restaurant.

It was past dinner time and there was no one in the restaurant. Xu Yan didn't see her father, but she saw her stepsister cleaning the table.

Next to her was my stepmother who was sweeping the floor. The two of them were talking and laughing while working.

"Mom, sister is back." Suddenly, the stepsister looked up and saw Xu Yan standing at the door.

"Ah, Yanyan is back." The stepmother turned around and saw Xu Yan, with a surprised and slightly excited look on her face: "Old Xu, Yanyan is back." After she finished speaking, she called to the kitchen. There was a sound.

Then he put down the broom in his hand, wiped his hands on the apron, and walked towards Xu Yan: "Yanyan, why didn't you tell me in advance when you came back? Come in, come in, it's cold outside."

After that, he said to his daughter: "Lan Lan, help my sister bring her luggage in."

Xu Lan quickly stepped forward to help Xu Yan carry the suitcase.

Xu Yan blocked her and said, "It's okay, I can just carry it myself."

Xu Lan's hand stopped in mid-air, her expression a little awkward.

At this time, Xu's father also came out of the kitchen. When he saw Xu Yan, he didn't show any excitement. He just said: "I'm back."

"Yes, Dad." Xu Yan looked at her father's familiar face and resisted crying on the spot.

Before her rebirth, she stayed in Haicheng after graduating from college, and occasionally returned home during her internship in her senior year.

At the end of her senior year, her relationship with Lin Xiao became clear.

Lin Xiao's strength made Xu Yan only focus on escaping and couldn't care about anything else.

She also thought about going home, but at that time, she didn't know Lin Xiao, and she was afraid of bringing trouble to her family.

So he never saw his father until his death.

Xu Yan felt deeply guilty about her father, and she was moved by Lin Xiao's affection. And she felt truly guilty for not repaying her father's kindness in raising him in the end.

When she was first reborn, she wanted to come back immediately, but she didn't comfort Lin Xiao and couldn't come back at all.

Now, seeing each other again after many years, how could Xu Yan not be moved.

It's just that the relationship between father and daughter has not been very close since childhood. Xu Yan has never acted coquettishly to her father.

But she knew that her father's feelings for her were unquestionable.

In the evening, my father went out to buy groceries, and the restaurant closed early.

The family sat together and had an early reunion dinner.

At the dinner table, Xu Yan and her stepmother cheered up the atmosphere and asked each other about their recent living conditions.

Xu Yan polished her life a little and found a persona who was new to the workplace and busy at work.

It can also be regarded as an explanation for her not going home this year.

Xu's father is still not good at talking, and Xu Lan has a quiet personality. She only eats quietly aside. Occasionally, when he talks about her, she will respond.

Xu Lan was not originally named Xu. She changed her surname after her mother remarried.

When she was young, Xu Yan had no feelings for her, and even complained a little bit.

After all, no one wants others to take away their family and their father.

It's just that as I grew up, my knowledge of the world became broader, and my thoughts became more mature, this kind of resentment slowly disappeared.

It was not wrong for the father to remarry, nor was it wrong for the stepmother to bring a daughter. The stepmother did not treat her badly, and the father did not neglect her because of her new family.

As for her father's love for her mother, that was not something she could change. The dead are dead, and the living will continue to live.

When I returned home at night, my aunt made Xu Yan's bed again.

The home is an old house with two bedrooms and one living room, and the two elders live in the master bedroom.

Xu Yan and Xu Lan lived in the master bedroom, but since going to college, Xu Yan didn't live at home much.

During the winter and summer vacations, I worked part-time outside, and most of the things in the room belonged to Xu Lan.

Xu Yan stood at the door of the room, looking at the furnishings inside, but did not go in immediately.

However, she was misunderstood. Seeing that she did not enter the room, the aunt thought that she was dissatisfied that the room was occupied by Xu Lan.

He quickly greeted Xu Lan: "Pack your things quickly, there is no place to stay."

She didn't say that it was Xu Lan who blocked Xu Yan's position, she only said that Xu Lan had too many things and saved face for both of them.

Seeing that Xu Lan was about to clean up, Xu Yan quickly said: "Don't bother, I won't be able to stay long."

Xu Yan's attitude has changed a lot since she came back this time. Although she didn't embarrass the mother and daughter in the past, she didn't have much enthusiasm either.

Xu Lan has been a little afraid of this beautiful sister with a cold personality since she was a child, even though Xu Yan did not do anything to her.

"Hey, it's too late now. Let's clean up tomorrow. You've been working all day and you're tired. Wash up early and have a good rest." The aunt said, and then told Xu Lan: "Don't play too late and disturb your sister's rest." .”

"Yes." Xu Lan agreed obediently.

Xu Yan walked into the room and came to her suitcase.

She came back with two boxes this time, one for her change of clothes and one for the gifts she brought back.

She opened the box containing the gifts and took out a box of ginseng and a set of skin care products. She stood up and handed them to her aunt.

"Auntie, this is a gift for you and my dad. The ginseng is for my dad, and the skin care products are for you." Xu Yan said.

"Why, how come you are here? Are you bringing gifts, and mine? You just work, it's not easy to make money." The aunt said with a smile.

Xu Yan said: "Thank you for taking care of my dad and me all these years."

The aunt's eyes turned slightly red when she heard Xu Yan's words. These words shocked her even more than the gifts Xu Yan brought her.

"Yes, it's all what I should do." Auntie said.

Xu Yan smiled and handed the thing to her aunt.

Then he squatted down again, took out a bag, and handed it to Xu Lan: "Lan Lan, this is for you."

Xu Lan looked at the bag handed to her and froze on the spot. She did not pick it up immediately, but she did not expect that Xu Yan would bring herself a gift.

She originally thought that Xu Yan never liked her very much.

Xu Yan retracted her hand and took out something from the bag, a lake blue cashmere scarf.

"I don't know what you like? It's cold, so I brought you a scarf." Xu Yan said, putting the scarf into Xu Lan's hand.

Although Xu Lan couldn't tell the difference between the materials, she knew from the softness of her hands that this was not a cheap product.

After the aunt went out, Xu Yan took out all the clothes she brought back from the box.

The wardrobe in the room was not big, and she and Xu Lan were originally half of it.

However, after Xu Yan went to college, her time at home was limited, and gradually, the wardrobe was filled with Xu Lan's clothes.

In the past, when she came back, she would tell her in advance, and Xu Lan would tidy up the house in advance.

When she came back this time, it was a surprise attack. She didn't tell anyone, and Xu Lan had no time to deal with it.

Xu Yan hugged the clothes and frowned slightly when she saw that there was no extra space in the closet.

Xu Lan came over quickly and pushed the clothes in the closet aside.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were coming back today. I'll take care of it right away." Xu Lan said nervously.

Xu Yan said: "What's there to be sorry for? The cabinet is just too small."

In fact, no one had touched the original clothes in Xu Yan's closet. Even though she didn't come back often, her things were kept intact in their original places.

Xu Yan didn't let Xu Lan touch her clothes. Instead, she took out all her old clothes and put them on the bed. The closet was now mostly empty.

Xu Yan said: "Isn't this free?"

Then she hung up the clothes she brought back.

She turned around and looked at the pile of old clothes on the bed, feeling a little distressed: "Do you have a woven bag?" she asked Xu Lan.

Xu Lan nodded: "I'll go find my mother and ask for it." Then she went out.

Xu Yan watched her leave with a smile, her phone vibrating in her pocket.

Xu Yan took out her mobile phone. It was Lin Xiao's call. She answered: "Hello."

"What are you doing?" Lin Xiao's voice came through the phone.

Xu Yan held her mobile phone in one hand and selected old clothes with the other: "I'm sorting out my old clothes."

"Have you eaten?" Lin Xiao asked.

Xu Yan said: "Well, what about you?"

Lin Xiao looked at the dinner in front of him. It was all delicious and delicious, but he didn't take a bite: "Eat."

"Well, I may have to go back after the New Year." Xu Yan said.

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Lin Xiao said.

Xu Yan chuckled: "Well, wait until I come back."

After she said this, footsteps came from behind: "Sister, is this bag enough?"

Lin Xiao heard a faint voice on the other end of the phone and asked, "Who is it?"

Xu Yan looked back at Xu Lan and said, "My sister," and then stretched out her hand to signal Xu Lan to give her the bag.

"I'll hang up now and call you when I'm done." Xu Yan said.

"Ah."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yan held up the phone and said to Xu Lan, who looked over curiously, "My friend."

"Oh." Xu Lan responded.
