Wear the book and be reborn as a group favorite for 50 people

On the tenth day of the lunar month, it was early again. Tang Xin rushed back to her old house with her father and brother, and waited for her cousin to come home with her family. Calculating that her cousin had been away from home for more than two years, in the middle I have never been home to visit my relatives. I only communicated through letters. My cousin also sent me a photo, but it was just an ID photo and I couldn’t see the whole picture.

The eldest aunt and grandma were busy early in the morning, especially the eldest aunt, who was busy going back and forth to the kitchen and living room over and over again. I don’t know what to do, so I get up and do it as soon as I think of something.

Tang Xin watched her eldest aunt being busy and quickly pushed her down on the chair and brought her a glass of water: "Auntie, don't be busy. When eldest brother comes back, he is not a guest. You have already prepared it for him. There are a lot of favorite things to eat, and he doesn’t leave after just one meal, he will stay for a long time, and he will feel uncomfortable if you do this."

The eldest aunt thought about it. She just wanted to be happy that the child had returned to her home and not to make her son feel uncomfortable again. "What Sugar Baby said is, auntie, she's just too happy, okay. I'll take a rest."

At around ten o'clock, the sound of a car horn sounded outside. Brother Santang and his elder brother, who had been guarding the door, rushed out immediately. The eldest aunt also hurriedly stood up and walked to the door. The most stable one is Mr. Tang, who is still sitting leisurely on the sofa drinking his tea. Even Mrs. Tang stood up and looked towards the door.

"Why are you in a hurry? The child can't run away after he comes back. Sit down and he will come in soon." Mr. Tang still had time to comfort his wife.

Soon there were footsteps outside the door, and a young man in military uniform walked in surrounded by his brothers. The eldest cousin had grown taller again. His figure has become stronger, and after more than two years of military service, the boyish look on his face has long since faded away. After the New Year, he will be twenty-one years old. He will be a man who can start a family and start a business and stand upright.

The cousin said a few words to the eldest aunt at the door, took her hand and walked towards Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang. Mr. Tang couldn't hold back at this moment. He put down the tea cup in his hand and slowly stood up.

The cousin approached, stood in front of his grandparents, and gave them a military salute.

"Grandpa, grandma, I'm back." The cousin said.

"Okay, it's good to come back. Are you tired from the journey? Is it hard? Is it cold?" Mrs. Tang quickly stepped forward and touched her eldest grandson's hand. It was very warm.

"Grandma, I'm not tired. I was fine along the way. How are you and grandpa doing?" Grandma Ren, the cousin, held hands and spoke softly to her.

The third cousin and elder brother also greeted the eldest cousin. Tang Xin stood beside her grandparents and called "brother."

The cousin patted the younger brothers' shoulders one by one, and then touched Tang Xin's head. "I'm back." He said to his brothers and sisters with a smile.

The eldest cousin came back, and the house suddenly became more lively. The boys in the yard who were friends with the eldest cousin all came to see him and listen to his stories about his experiences in the army. There was always a steady stream of family members. It didn't stop until dinner time.

In the evening, when all the outsiders left, the cousin brought out the gifts he had prepared for the family. I brought ginseng and antlers to Mr. and Mrs. Tang so they could drink more to replenish their qi and blood. What I bring most to my family are dry goods from the Northeast, such as mushrooms and fungus. Forgive him. The Northeast is currently in the development stage and there really isn’t anything very good.

Then he brought a spent bullet casing to each of his younger brothers, which was considered a unique and honorable gift among the boys. The gifts for Tang Xin were a matryoshka doll and a furry hat, which he bought specially when passing through Harbin City to transfer.

On New Year's Day, the second uncle's family also came back. This time, everyone in the Old Tang family has gathered except Tang Ma, but there is nothing we can do. Tang Ma is currently abroad. Speaking of the current situation, everyone is also worried about Tang Ma. The old man comforts everyone. For these scientific researchers, the country is We take it very seriously and they will definitely return safely.

Less than a day after the old man finished saying this, Tang's mother suddenly appeared at the door of the old house when he was thirteen.

This was such a big surprise. Tang Xin immediately threw herself into her mother's arms.

"Mom, I miss you so much." Hugging his mother, Tang Xin didn't want to let go. The elder brother also came around and hugged his mother and sister. Dad Tang stood beside him, his face full of envy, he wanted to hug them too. Tang Xin turned around and pulled her father over, and the family of four hugged each other.

It's better this time, the third daughter-in-law is back, and this time the Old Tang family is really reunited.

Everyone gathered around Tang's mother and returned to the room to sit down. Old Mrs. Tang asked, "Minshu, did you have a smooth journey back? Why did you come back without giving any news in advance?" Old Mrs. Tang asked. It was a topic that everyone was concerned about, and everyone's eyes were focused on Tang Ma.

Ma Tang hugged her daughter and replied. "The journey has been smooth. In fact, I didn't suddenly decide to come back. The project stopped researching a year ago. We are trapped in the base. But it's okay. We just can't leave the base. We can still move freely in the base. . In the first few days, no one knew what had happened, and they lost contact with the outside world for a few days. Mr. Qian finally found a way to contact the embassy and knew what had happened. Then everyone made arrangements at the embassy We are ready to retreat at any time. No, as soon as the communication on the other side was completed, we were picked up in the car and rushed back without any delay." Although Tang Ma said it was quite easy, the hardships and sufferings involved were still there for everyone. It's still conceivable.

Tang Xin hugged her mother with her backhand, as if to comfort her that it was okay to go home. Tang's mother touched her daughter's hair and hugged her daughter, and she finally felt at ease.

"This matter is not as serious as you think. Nowadays, all countries are very polite to scientific researchers. Besides, the relationship between the two countries will not involve you. The most serious consequence is to keep you in their country, but it will definitely not It will harm your personal safety." Mr. Tang said. After a pause, he continued: "Even if it does come to that point, you can rest assured that the country will use all means to bring you back."

"Yes, Dad, Mr. Qian and Mr. Deng told us the same thing." Tang Ma believed what the two teachers said, and she believed what her father-in-law said even more.

"Okay, isn't the child back now? Just come back safely. Our family should be neat and happy," Mrs. Tang said.

Yes, it is good for the family to be neat and happy. Tang Xin prayed silently in her heart, hoping that everyone in her family would be safe and well.

That night, Tang Xin ignored her father's glare and slept with her mother. The mother and daughter chatted for a long time. Tang Xin told her mother what happened at home during this time and told Tang's mother how much she missed her. Tang’s mother also held her daughter in her arms and lamented that she felt like her daughter had grown up again after not seeing her for more than four months. That night, Tang Xin slept very peacefully next to her mother.

The fourteenth day of the first lunar month was Mr. Tang’s birthday. When they got up that morning, Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang put on the red clothes specially prepared by their eldest daughter-in-law. It was rare that Mr. Tang did not refuse this time. He used to wear military uniforms at home and outside the house. The only difference is whether there are epaulettes or not.

After Father Tang’s generation had finished paying their birthday wishes to their second elder, the grandchildren stood in a neat row, led by the eldest cousin, to pay their birthday wishes to their second elder. Looking at the row of grandchildren in front of him, the second elder was very happy. Our old Tang family is prosperous.

After breakfast, people began to come to the house one after another. They were all close friends and old comrades of the old man. Jiang Wenbai also led Grandpa Jiang to celebrate his birthday. Throughout the morning, people came one after another to sit and talk for a while. Some brought gifts and some did not. They were all thoughtful, so the old man accepted them.

Although it was his sixty-sixth birthday, the situation last year was not good, and his status was also special, so it was not suitable to celebrate with wine. It was just a gathering of relatives and friends to drink tea and chat.

Near noon, Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen came with their uncle. After celebrating the New Year this year, my uncle rushed back on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year and had to continue to deal with the affairs of Shengshi Fanghua. After my uncle came back, my grandpa and grandma were going back. It happened that Tang Xin and the others were going back to their old house, so my aunt followed her grandpa and grandma back to Chen's house to stay for a few days.

My aunt accidentally caught a cold at Chen's house two days ago, so she didn't come over today and asked Mrs. Chen to apologize to Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang. But the birthday gift was still brought.

Grandpa and the others were very happy to see Tang's mother back. After the new year, news about the deterioration of relations between the two countries had spread throughout the upper circles of Beijing. The Chen family had also known about the news for a long time, and it was Mr. Tang who After persuading and promising to ensure the safety of Tang Ma and others, Mr. Chen did not take any action, otherwise he would have used his connections to find out the whereabouts of his daughter.

"Mom and Dad, happy New Year, big brother." Tang's mother greeted the family.

"When did you come back? How is the situation there? Is there no danger?" Old Mrs. Chen asked while holding her daughter's hand, so Tang's mother repeated what she said to her family yesterday, but because of the family's There are also outsiders, so they don’t go into so much detail.

As long as they see their daughter come back safely, there is no need to pursue any details. Besides, this is not what they should care about. Everyone then dropped the topic and stopped mentioning it.

Seeing the two families gathered together, Mr. Tang said, this is the real reunion.
