NOVEL NEXT Chapter 32 Homecoming
"Wow~ Brother Xiaoyang, is this car yours?" Chen Wanling looked at the Panamera with sparkling eyes, which looked like a gold-plated car under the sunlight.
"Of course, otherwise, who would be willing to drive this kind of car up the mountain and work hard to build it." Su Yang put the things in the trunk with a smile and said to Chen Wanling.
Chen Wanling walked around the Panamera, still kept admiring, and said, "This car is really beautiful, it must be worth a lot of money, right?"
"It seems to be about four million." Su Yang smiled faintly.
"Ah! It's so expensive!" Chen Wanling covered her mouth in surprise, her appearance was extremely cute.
"Let's talk in the car." Su Yang opened the driver's door and greeted her.
"Oh!" Chen Wanling responded, and ran to the co-pilot with small steps. The leather drum twisted gently, which made people imagine the elasticity and softness.
It was the first time for her to sit in such a luxury car, her hips were tightly wrapped in jeans, she sat in carefully, and looked around curiously.
Su Yang turned his head and glanced at Chen Wanling's body, and knew that she was afraid that the dust from digging bamboo shoots on her body would get on the car.
"Wanling, a car is just a tool, and the most important thing is to sit comfortably. Otherwise, it's not the end of the road, so you can sit freely. Don't you, brother Xiaoyang, still worry that you will get dirty? You Even if I take off my shoes and put my feet in front, I don't care." Su Yang smiled and glanced at her sneakers wearing white socks.
Seeing that he was joking, Chen Wanling also giggled coquettishly: "Hmph, she is a lady, who would put her feet in front?"
Seeing that she finally relaxed, Su Yang started the car and returned to the original road.
The white Palamela shuttles slowly on the road, with paddy fields and fish ponds on both sides, clear water, blue sky, clear sky, and the fragrance of rice wafting from the yellow rice.
"Brother Xiaoyang, are you making a fortune in Shanghai?"
Chen Wanling leaned on the passenger seat, looking back and forth at Su Yang who was driving curiously.
It was only then that he realized that his clothes were still brand new and looked stylish, typical of big brands.
"It's almost like meeting a noble person and seizing the opportunity." Su Yang said with a bright smile.
It's really hard to explain the complicated situation in his family to Qing Mei in detail.
After all, this is also related to some things of the parents' generation.
Moreover, Chen Wanling's family knew his father, and the relationship between the two families was also very good.
If you tell them that my father was originally a rich man from other places, in order to anger my mother, he deliberately took me to Chenjia Town to hide his identity.
I really don't know what they will think.
Chen Wanling didn't go into details, she believed what Su Yang said, and said with a smile, "I just said that Uncle Su will definitely bless Brother Xiaoyang to be safe and sound."
Seeing that Su Yang's life is getting better and better, she is actually very happy for him.
After all, Brother Xiaoyang was only 14 years old when Uncle Su left.
At that time, she was really worried about how he would live alone in the future.
"Is your family still farming?" Su Yang asked casually.
"It's gone. My dad changed the field to a hilltop and planted a piece of Cixi bayberry. By the way, the bayberry is just ripe now. When will you be free, I will take you to pick it?"
"Okay, let's do it tomorrow. I have to go back to the old house to clean up later. I'll stay here tonight."
"Then I'll help you clean up too."
Cixi bayberry is a famous specialty of Mingzhou. Another town not far from Chenjia Town is also known as the hometown of bayberry.
When I was a child, Su Yang took Chen Wanling to pick bayberry secretly. The Cixi bayberry was plump, sweet and sour, juicy and very delicious.
The two chatted while driving, and there was a beautiful Qingmei talking with them, and even driving felt like a spring breeze.
The later generation is not far from Chenjia Town, and it didn't take long for Su Yang to arrive at the door of his old house.
Chen Wanling's house is next door to him, and the two yards are adjacent to each other, separated by a wall.
And their canteen is under the tung tree opposite the door of the house.
A few uncles were playing chess under the shade of the trees, and some squatted beside them, smoking and chatting.
As soon as Su Yang's Panamera stopped, it attracted everyone's attention.
"Isn't this the car that passed by just now?"
"Yeah, why did you stop here?"
"Maybe I saw the canteen and came to buy something."
Under the discussion of the villagers' uncle, Su Yang got down from the driver's seat.
"Hey! Isn't this the child of the old Su family?"
"It's true, I only saw him come back to pay respects to his father during the Qingming Festival a few months ago."
"It turns out that this car was driven by Xiao Su. It seems that he made a fortune in other places."
After getting off the co-driver, Chen Wanling went straight to her home's canteen, and shouted, "Mom and Dad, Brother Xiaoyang is back."
Su Yang didn't follow. He took out two boxes of cigarettes and alcohol from the trunk, went to the villagers, and said with a smile, "Uncles, long time no see. Are you all right?"
"It's all good, Xiao Su, you are promising now, and you are driving a luxury car."
"It's pretty good." Su Yang opened the carton with a smile, and gave each of them a bottle of wine and a cigarette: "I'm also an uncle watching you grow up, and being mischievous when you were young didn't cause you less trouble. Bringing some cigarettes back for my uncle to smoke is a little bit of my care."
"Yo, Greater China? Moutai?! Good cigarettes and good wine!"
"Xiao Su is still nostalgic, she still remembers us."
These villagers are all old smokers and alcoholics, and they took over happily one by one.
In fact, Su Yang's return this time can be regarded as a homecoming.
After all, this is where he grew up, his roots.
He has seen everything in every piece of land.
Moreover, when my father died in a car accident, it was the uncles in these villages who helped with the funeral.
Therefore, Su Yang will naturally miss their love.
At this moment, Chen Wanling's father, Chen Yong, also ran out of the grocery store, and laughed heartily when he saw Su Yang: "Su Yang, the good boy is back."
"Uncle Yong!" Su Yang also grinned when he saw him, and gave him a big hug directly.
This Uncle Chen Yong and his father are iron brothers, and his father's funeral was that he was responsible for taking the lead in organizing and running back and forth.
After his father passed away, the family often let Su Yang eat at their house, almost treating Su Yang as their son.
Therefore, Su Yang's affection for Chen Yong's family is much deeper than that of other villagers.
Chen Yong patted him on the back, let go of him and said with a smile, "How long will you stay this time?"
"Let's wait until tomorrow. I just went to Houshan to see my dad, and I happened to meet Wanling."
While talking, Su Yang took out two more boxes of cigarettes and alcohol from the trunk, and put them directly on the counter of the canteen: "Uncle Yong, you can keep these cigarettes and alcohol for yourself, don't be polite to me."
"Okay, you kid is really proud of your father." Chen Yong pointed to the Panamera over there, and gave Su Yang a thumbs up.
Su Yang took a sip of the juice handed over by Chen Wanling, and looked inside: "Where is my Aunt Yun? Isn't it here?"
"She went to the vegetable garden to clean up the vegetables." Chen Yong looked at Su Yang with a face full of relief and said, "Come to our house for dinner tonight? Let your Aunt Yun cook some delicious dishes, and I'll have a drink with you?"
"Okay, then I'll go back and tidy up the old house first." Su Yang agreed with a smile.
Chen Yong immediately said to his daughter who was standing beside him drinking juice: "Ling'er, go and help Xiao Yang clean up too, don't stand here."
Chen Wanling gave her father a blank look: "Dad, it's up to you to say, I've already made an agreement with Brother Xiaoyang."
Su Yang waved his hand: "Uncle Yong, let's talk later."
"Okay, come find me when you're free." Chen Yong smiled gently and watched the two young people leave together.
Not to mention, they seem to be a good match, really like a young couple.
Old Su, if you were still here, maybe we would all be married.
...
Su Yang's old house is a bungalow with blue bricks and white walls.
There is an open space at the door, and a yard is surrounded.
In the past, when my father was around, I would plant some vegetables at the door.
Now the huge yard is deserted, only an old elm tree stands alone at the door, and the wall skin has already fallen off.
The once warm home, with the passage of time, has buried many childhood memories in this land.
"Wanling, it's you who climbed the wall again to clean up the weeds for me, right?" Su Yang smiled and glanced back at Ome beside her.
According to the growth rate of nature, a yard that has not been lived in for a year must be full of weeds.
It can even block the doorway, making it impossible for people to get in.
However, there were only a few fallen leaves in the yard at this time, and the vegetable garden was turned over, which was naturally impossible.
Chen Wanling blinked her eyes, smiled pretty, and said in a casual tone, "I came back two days ago and didn't have anything to do, so I came here to clean up for you when I was bored."
Su Yang smiled and shook his head: "Can you still be so boring every year?"
That's right, basically every time Su Yang came back, he would find traces of the yard being tidied up.
It's still the same after so many years, this green plum...
"I can't help it, you've already fought for me, so what if I tidy up your yard." Chen Wanling stuck out her tongue at him.
Hearing what she said, Su Yang recalled what happened in middle school and high school.
Apart from the fact that he would have fought because someone scolded his mother for something related, he had fought because of this green plum.
Boys and girls of that age are just at the age of first love.
Although the teenage Chen Wanling has not yet grown her body, she has already developed sultry lines.
So, when I went to the town and county with Su Yang to study in middle and high schools, there would always be some bastards who came to tease her.
Su Yang naturally became this green plum's shield, and fought with those bastards several times.
Although sometimes outnumbered, he was beaten black and blue, but he also caught the instigator and beat him hard, a well-known lunatic.
Moreover, since Su Yang is a top student with good grades, the school has to care about him and only give those bastards a major demerit.
Afterwards, his reputation spread, and those bastards didn't dare to look for trouble again.
As for the latter, after going to college, the college students have matured their minds.
I heard from Chen Wanling that although there are some people who come to strike up a conversation, they are not the kind of people in middle and high school who are hot-headed and impulsive.
"Time flies so fast." Su Yang couldn't help sighing.
"Yes." Chen Wanling answered, but her eyes were secretly looking at him.
Su Yang didn't pay attention, and went forward to open the door of the old house.
The furniture and electrical appliances inside are all covered with dust covers.
There was a layer of floating dust on the cover and on the ground.
Some cobwebs were also hung on the ceiling in the corner, and a few small spiders were still sleeping on the cobwebs.
"I'll get the mop." Chen Wanling rushed to work.
Su Yang shook her head in amusement, and refused to fight with her. She took out her mobile phone from her pocket to check the time.
He had taken off his Patek Philippe watch in advance and put it in the car because he had to clean it.
"Huh? Sister Yaoyao sent me a message?"
Su Yang hadn't paid attention to her phone just now. When it vibrated every now and then, she thought it was notifications popping up from apps or receiving sexy text messages.
The message was sent at 3:10 in the afternoon, when he was still worshiping his father.
Jiang Yao: "φ(＞ω＜*) Ayang, your mother and I also want to come and see the place where you lived."
Jiang Yao: "(*/ω＼*) After you see the information, send us a prestige position. We're afraid we won't be able to find the place."
Jiang Yao: "(＞ω･* )ﾉWe are already on the way to Mingzhou."
At the end there is a selfie of Sister Yaoyao and her mother sitting in the car.
It is now three forty, half an hour has passed.
Su Yang quickly sent a location to Sister Yaoyao.
The typed reply said: "If you still can't find the way, just call me and I will go out to pick you up. I was busy with something and didn't have time to look at my phone."
As soon as the message was sent, Sister Yaoyao replied instantly.
Jiang Yao: "[OK] I knew you were busy. We have just entered the highway and we are not there yet. Don't worry, I will call you when the time comes. ヾ(◍°∇°◍)ﾉﾞ"
Su Yang thought about it, it would take him more than two hours to drive here.
Based on this calculation, mother and the others should arrive around six o'clock.
Su Yang quickly put her phone back into her pocket and had to go clean.
"Wan Ling, I have guests coming over in two hours."
"guest?"
"Um...a friend I met in Magic City."
Su Yang could only say this, otherwise he would really have to reveal the past events of his parents' generation when explaining.
However, when mom and others come here, how should we introduce it to them?
You can ignore the other villagers, but Uncle Yong and his family need to be introduced, right?
Tell them directly, is this my dead biological mother that my father said?
This always feels like it's exposing my father's shortcomings. The choices he made back then were not so pleasant.
Or simply introduce Yang Yingyu as the sister he recognized in Shanghai. Anyway, the two parties will not have much chance to meet in the future.
This can also avoid revealing the past events of your parents’ generation.
Su Yang was thinking about things and busy at the same time, and time seemed to pass quickly.
It was only around four o'clock until both of them had packed up the entire old house.
Of course, this must be attributed to Chen Wanling.
This Qingmei has been helping the family since she was a child, and she is definitely a good hand when it comes to work.
In fact, it is really good to marry such a girl and bring her home. Family affairs can be completed independently, and the husband can rest when he returns home from work.
"Brother Xiaoyang, I'm going to go back and take a shower first." Chen Wanling pouted while fanning herself, with sweat on her face.
Su Yang showed a smile, raised her hand and took a tissue to wipe her sweat: "Thank you for your hard work."
"What's the trouble? We're still talking about this." Chen Wanling's pretty face turned red and she ran out quickly.
...
