fire rescue

The Spring Festival is approaching, and the busy year is coming to an end. There is bitterness and sweetness in it. Compared with the past, Zheng Yi always feels that he has gained more than in previous years.

Ever since Zheng Yi was kicked out of his home by his mother, he has almost forgotten what it is like to celebrate the New Year at home, and it seems that the shift on New Year's Eve at work has become a routine. he.When he tactfully told Li Dawei that he couldn't be on duty in the town this year and had to go home, Li Dawei agreed after a little hesitation. Zheng Yi could see that he seemed quite surprised, but he said: "You It’s been several years since I’ve been on duty in the town alone, so it’s time to go home and have fun.”

Zheng Yi was also a little sorry: "This year's situation is special. My mother has found a wife, and the two of them will have to register in the spring. This year, it is said that the two families will get together for a new year."

Li Dawei knew a little about Zheng Yi's family, and he was even more delighted when he learned that this was the reason. He said, "That's a good thing. You can go home with peace of mind. I'm here during the Spring Festival. Hey? By the way, New Year's Eve Do you still have to go to your partner's house in Zhangzhou?"

The leader's habitual concern made Zheng Yi not know how to answer for a while, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I should go." Zheng Yi lied casually, even though Bai Hewei's mother accepted them However, the stubborn old man didn't want to open it yet. If he didn't open his mouth, Zheng Yi would never dare to visit the door rashly. However, Bai Hewei said that he would come to Lingquan on the second day of the Lunar New Year, which can be regarded as a formal visit. .As soon as he thought of Bai Hewei, his thoughts immediately drifted away.

Seeing him like this, Li Dawei patted him on the shoulder and smiled, saying, "That's a good relationship, and a happy event is coming."

Zheng Yi was all smiles, he felt helpless when the leaders urged him to get married from time to time.Feelings that cannot be put on the table always make people feel a little regretful.

On the last working day before the Spring Festival, after only working for half a day, the leader sent everyone home early. Zheng Yiche’s trunk was filled with local pork, stroller chicken and local eggs purchased from farmers. , with a feeling that cannot be expressed in words, drove on the way home.

When he went upstairs with big bags and small bags to open the door, he didn't know what happened, his nose was sore.In fact, he went home quite frequently during this period of time, but he had never felt this kind of mood today.The key was in the keyhole for a long time before he opened the door, and the mother seemed to hear the voice coming out to meet him.He moved in one by one the things he bought according to his mother's instructions, and he was told that he bought too much.Zheng Yi had no choice but to say: "My fellow villagers gave me a lot when they saw me go to buy it. I'm also embarrassed."

"That's just right. He Wei said he came from the second year of junior high school. I'll bring him some back when the time comes. Should he go back to Suijiang or Zhangzhou?"

"Probably go back to Zhangzhou directly. It doesn't matter if I bring it or not. I can get it for him in the past. We can't eat it, so take it back for Zhao Rui and the others to replenish their health. They are all good things." Zheng Yi explain.

"Right."

He and his mother took the things to the kitchen and planned to divide them up according to the portion, set aside for New Year's Eve, and put the rest in the refrigerator to freeze.

Zheng Yi was in charge of pulling the fresh-keeping bag, and asked casually: "Shall we go to Uncle Zhao's house tomorrow morning?" During the period of time ago, he had a lot of entertainment, even when he came back, he was drunk, and he didn't take many things to heart. Being able to go home for the New Year, I didn't even pay much attention to how to arrange it.

Mother nodded and said, "Yes, originally your Uncle Zhao said he wanted to come to our house, but Zhao Rui said his house is spacious, so he let us go. He might also be afraid that Xiao Xia would feel uncomfortable coming to our house."

"Anything is fine." Zheng Yi opened the mouth of the fresh-keeping bag and put the pork cut by his mother into the bag, "I remember that there is an inner tenderloin in it, and the meat is the most tender. I have to remember to take it to Uncle Zhao's house tomorrow and give it to Zhao. Rui and the two of them will eat." As he spoke, he rummaged in the big bag, picked apart a whole piece of fat and thin pork belly, and finally saw the inner ridge.He took it out and was about to put it in a bag, but found that his mother was looking at him in a daze. "Mom, what's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Chu Hongxia just smiled, rubbed her face with the back of her hand, and said, "Mom has treated you too meanly these two years, but in fact you are still the same as before, always thinking of others."

Zheng Yi had that sour nose feeling before he entered the room just now, so he had no choice but to tease and smile to cover up his unnaturalness, and said, "Mom, don't talk about it, I'm still not filial, I'm always mad at you , let you down."

"I won't be disappointed. It's just a pity, but there's nothing you can do about it. Just let the two of you get better." She lowered her head, took out another piece of meat and put it on the cutting board, and skillfully divided the meat into two pieces with a kitchen knife, "He Wei Dad hasn't thought about it yet?"

Zheng Yi's movements stopped for a moment, and then he went to get the meat that was divided just now, "Well... His mother can't persuade him, so let's do this first, we can't make him accept it all at once. After all, we left him the meat before. The impression that comes down is always just for fun. Who would have thought that we are so serious? It’s normal for a family like theirs not to accept it. What’s more, his mother is already quite tolerant, and even offered to buy me a car. Quite enough."

Hearing what he said, my mother still sighed, "What about you, instead of taking the smooth road, you want to walk on the most remote and bumpy road. Both of you still have public positions, and it's really a shame that you have never been married. It doesn’t sound good to be gossiped or seen by others, we as parents have no choice, but you have to think about these things, and they are divided into two places, running around like this all the year round is not a solution.”

He never thought about what his mother said, and sometimes he would feel sad when he was talking about it. The nature of the work of the two of them determines that they will not see each other for a long time at the beginning of each year. In a hurry, you can't stay together forever, you can only rely on lovesickness.But on the other hand, because of this, the chance of being exposed is even smaller, and they are all the kind of people who are willing to spend time at home. Hang out on the bed, go out to eat and watch movies at most, but it won't cause trouble.Thinking too much is just mediocrity.

Seeing that he was silent, his mother said again: "Also, He Wei is really serious. If he said he would buy a car for you, he would buy such a good one. That's not how money is spent. You don't even know how to persuade him, and the house is renovated. Did you mention it to him?"

"I told him about the renovation, and he said he wanted money, but I refused. Mom, in fact, the two of us, I don't count..." Zheng Yi said without confidence, "When I refute, he It’s so fierce that I can’t help it if you show me face.”

"You!" His mother poked his forehead with greasy fingers resentfully, and said, "Don't be so at ease when someone treats you well. Do you want to know how to repay him?"

"Understood." Zheng Yi casually wiped off the oil on his forehead, and murmured.I thought to myself, Bai Hewei always said that he has a giving personality, this is because his living environment since he was a child has something to do with the tutoring he received.There is such a domestic violence father, and such a mother who always taught him not to take advantage, he is submissive, and if someone treats him better, he will feel guilty and want to pay him back. no more.

After dividing the meat, the chat came to an end. Zheng Yi stuffed most of it into the freezer of the refrigerator, and put all the ones he brought over tomorrow into the freezer. After washing his hands, he took out a lighter from his pocket and fiddled with it. .

"Does He Wei have any taboos? What do you like to eat? What don't you like to eat?"

Zheng Yi laughed when his mother asked this. He was so resistant before, but now he always thinks about him, as if he and her own son are not so important. "He will eat anything, but he can't be hungry and loses his temper easily."

"Can you still starve him during the Chinese New Year?" I saw my mother washed the cutting board, stood it up to control the water, then wiped her hands with a towel, and said, "Yesterday I had nothing to do and cleaned up your room. Sort out some of your old things, if you see what you keep, what you have to throw away, just deal with it, don’t pile it up, if someone comes home, there is no place to lay your feet.”

"How can it be so exaggerated, besides, we will just stay at home for one night, and then return to Changchun Town."

"Just stay at home, don't mess around. Go and have a look..."

Zheng Yi was really helpless, he always felt that his mother had started to be biased, so he put the lighter back in his pocket and went to his bedroom.Seeing two large cardboard boxes at the door, he squatted down and looked through them. The contents inside were nothing more than things that he had packed up from school after graduation, and he was reluctant to throw them away. There were professional textbooks, notes, bound graduation thesis, etc. Scrolling down, there is even the MP3 he used at that time, which was packed in a bag and is still well preserved.He remembered that the reason why this MP3 was eliminated was not that it was broken, but that the memory was small and it still used batteries.At that time, he seemed to think it was troublesome to buy a battery, so he saved money and replaced it with a new one with a large memory and a rechargeable one, which he used until graduation.Thinking that everyone uses mobile phones now, and there is no 128M music playback device anymore, it is really embarrassing. He got up and went to the drawer to find a few batteries, opened the back cover and put them in, and he was able to turn on the phone and plug in the earphones. Coincidentally Yes, the song "Ten Years" came out. He looked at the black and white LCD screen, and the icon for the single track was still there.Playing old songs on old equipment gives me the feeling of going back to the past. Yes, I liked Bai Hewei so much at that time, and I lived by listening to this song every day. The bitter and sweet memories flooded into my mind instantly. inside.Thinking about it, more than ten years have passed, this song is still liked by many people, and at that time, he probably never thought that he would be where he is today.

He hummed along with the music, and then turned down until there was a small box at the bottom. He picked it up and shook it, but there was still a sound inside. After he opened it, a key lay at the bottom of the box. In fact, he still remembered, This is the house that he and Bai Hewei rented. After they separated, they were reluctant to return the key.Zheng Yi shook his head with a smile, his face was also flushed red from those beautiful past events, thinking how stupid that time was.

He put the key back, closed the lid, and put the pile back into the box intact.As soon as he got up, his mother stood at the door and looked at him. Zheng Yi said: "Mom, don't throw these away. If you think it takes up space, I will move to Changchun Town."

"What are you keeping it for?"

Zheng Yi looked at those things and said, "It's always a memory from college, it's a pity to throw it away."

Mother sighed and muttered: "Keep everything, keep it." She turned and walked away, as if a little angry.

Zheng Yi was very happy, his eyes stayed on these things, and he was thinking that if the new house was decorated, he would have to make a cabinet to put them in, and he didn't know if he would be disgusted by Bai Hewei at that time.
