The weather in the north is hot and dry. Xu Jingyan and Duanmu Chen only stayed in Quan City for five days before planning to leave. There was no other way. Duan Muchen's wedding vacation was coming soon. If they didn't leave, it would be difficult for them to leave by then. I returned to Guangzhou before the wedding vacation ended.

Duanmu Yuan was very happy for the arrival of his son and daughter-in-law, and he only stayed for a few days before going back. Although he was a little reluctant to leave, as a grown man, he did not show it, but told Duanmu Chen to say hello. Xu Jingyan and others also told Duanmuchen to take care of his third uncle and aunt when he returned to the south.

And he also prepared three big bags of things, one big bag was for Xu Jingyan, and the remaining two bags were for Duanmu Hao and Duan Muqing. When he saw the corners of Duanmu Chen's mouth twitching, he looked at Duan Muyuan eagerly.

"Dad, out of these three bags, not one of them belongs to me, but it seems that I am the main person carrying things back this time?"

Duanmuyuan glanced at Duanmuchen.

"Your third uncle's, you carry it back to thank him for taking care of you for so many years. Your aunt's, it's to thank your aunt for organizing your marriage. As your father, I naturally want to thank this sister. As for Yanyan You are her husband, if you don’t carry this bag, who will carry it?”

Duanmu Chen was speechless after what Duan Muyuan said, and finally said helplessly.

"Dad, you know how tiring it is to take the train, okay? How can I carry so much luggage back?"

Duanmuyuan frowned and looked at Duanmuchen.

"Are you really my son? Why are you so stupid? Don't you know what mailing is? Did I ask you to carry it all back?"

Xu Jingyan covered her mouth and laughed while listening. Duanmuchen was quite cute in front of his father! Every time father and son quarrel, Duanmu Chen seems to be ridiculed by Duan Muyuan.

After listening to his father's words, Duanmu Chen smiled bitterly, he really didn't expect this, so he said.

"Then I'll go to the team headquarters and make a call and ask Pu Jianhua to pick us up early tomorrow morning and hand these things over to him and mail them to Shenzhen City for me."

Getting up early the next morning, Pu Jianhua came to his home before dawn. After Xu Jingyan and Duanmu Chen had eaten the meal Duanmu Yuan had prepared early in the morning, they took Pu Jianhua's car to Quan City.

After arriving at Quanshi Railway Station, Duanmuchen told Pu Jianhua that after they left, he went to the post office to mail the three large packages to Shenzhen City, and also wrote his home address in detail to Pu Jianhua.

After Duanmu Chen and Xu Jingyan got on the train and settled in, Pu Jianhua got off the train and left. He had to help Duan Muchen mail the package.

The ticket for this return trip was bought by Pu Jianhua’s leader. It was still a sleeper ticket, with one middle berth and one lower berth. Xu Jingyan chose the middle berth, mainly because there were many people sitting in the lower berth. This made Xu Jingyan I felt very uncomfortable, and it was hard to talk about it. Let’s not talk about it. I felt uncomfortable, so I just chose the middle berth, and left the lower berth to the grown man Duan Muchen.

Two days later, in the evening, the train arrived in Beijing and the couple got off the train.

"Duanmuchen, should we buy train tickets directly to the south, or should we stay in Beijing?"

Duanmu Chen looked at Xu Jingyan with a smile.

"Do you want to take a look around the capital?"

Xu Jingyan nodded.

"I do have this plan, but it seems that your vacation is coming soon, and we can't stay here for too long. We might as well go back first and come to the capital when we are free!"

Duanmuchen smiled while carrying his luggage.

"Actually, we can still stay in Beijing for a while. I can give my third uncle a call and ask him to grant me a few more days of leave."

"What? Really?"

Duanmu Chen stopped and looked at the road, then pulled Xu Jingyan along.

"It's absolutely okay, let's go! Let's get out of the station first!"

The two of them followed the crowd out of the station and came to the large square outside the station. Duanmuchen used to come to Beijing often, so naturally he was very familiar with everything around him. He led Xu Jingyan to a street in a few twists and turns. He stretched out his hand to stop a human-powered tricycle and put his luggage on it.

"Let's take you somewhere."

Xu Jingyan was already dizzy at this time. This was the second time she came to Beijing. The previous time she came was when she was going to the Northwest. However, she didn't stay long and immediately got on the train to the Northwest. .

Therefore, Xu Jingyan was completely unfamiliar with Beijing, so she was helped onto the tricycle by Duanmu Chen.

"Uncle, go to Mao'er Alley."

"Hey, okay, you guys sit down and start walking."

The uncle riding the tricycle looked to be in his thirties or forties, but he still had some strength. After shouting, he started running quickly on the road on the tricycle.

Xu Jingyan didn't say anything, she just looked at the scenery on both sides of the road and sighed in her heart, Beijing City is Beijing City! The richness of history is not comparable to that of some cities in the south, especially the new city Shenzhen, which has only been established for a few years.

The tricycle was still very fast, and within half an hour it arrived at the Mao'er Hutong that Duanmuchen had mentioned. It stopped at the door of the third house after entering the alley. The sky was already getting dark at this time, and it could be said that it was the beginning of the lights. .

Duanmuchen ignored the doubts in Xu Jingyan's eyes, but jumped out of the car first, then helped Xu Jingyan out of the car, took the luggage off the tricycle, and gave the money to the tricycle uncle.

"This is my own home!"

"Ok?"

Xu Jingyan was very surprised. This was the first time she heard Duanmu Chen say that he had a family in Beijing, but this was not the time to ask this question.

Duanmuchen dismissed the tricycle uncle, took out a key from his pocket, walked to the door and opened it.

"Let's go! I'll have a talk with you when we get in."

Duan Muchen followed Duan Muchen's footsteps into the courtyard, and Duan Muchen walked along.

"This courtyard is a second-level courtyard. In 1979, after I made meritorious service on the battlefield, they wanted to see me, so my third uncle took me back to Duanmu's house in Beijing. Later I heard that someone wanted to sell his house. I heard about the courtyard house, so I paid for it, thinking that no matter what, I would have a home, a home that didn’t need to be judged by others.”

Duanmu Chen said it very relaxedly. In his opinion, almost ten years have passed and he has already let go. He had done meritorious service at that time. He was very happy when he heard his third uncle say that his grandpa wanted to see him. At that time, I was still a little obsessed, so I came to Beijing with great joy.

But when he returned to the Duanmu family, he was ridiculed by his second uncle's brothers and sisters, saying that he was an illegitimate child and would never be included in the family tree and would never be recognized by the Duanmu family. Only then did he realize that he had taken it for granted.

Although my grandfather also reprimanded his cousins ​​at the time, it was just a few words that were said lightly and were not painful at all. He knew at that time that he should not follow his third uncle back.

In the next few days, I left Duanmu's house and lived with my third uncle in the guest house of the Beijing Military Region. Occasionally, I heard someone say that they wanted to sell their house, so I took out my savings for so many years and found another one. The third uncle borrowed some and bought the house. When the third uncle knew that he wanted to buy a house, he was very supportive of himself. Presumably, he also saw through those family members and supported him in buying the house.
