Rebirth 2010, the best

Chapter 78
"Is your home also in an old neighborhood?"

Watching Lu Yao turn into the family compound, Hu Li asked with burning eyes.

Lu Yao knew what she meant and thought to himself that my family should be older than yours.

Nod:
"Ah."

"The old neighborhood is the best, you know? It's full of human touch. Have you always lived here?"

"Yes, I moved here when I was about four or five years old."

"That's great. The neighbors are all people you know. Children who grow up in this environment will have a lot of friends. It's so warm."

She seemed to be deeply attached to this kind of community, and her words were filled with a very different kind of envy.

That's just how people are.

The more you lack something, the more you love it.

In fact, after spending so many days together, Lu Yao could see that she was a very nostalgic person.

My favorite car is not Mercedes-Benz, BMW or Rolls-Royce, but Audi A6.

My favorite food is not delicacies from land or sea, but home-cooked meals.

Moreover, she is different from Xu Ruochu.

In terms of thrift and diligence, Haihou has done a really good job.

Although it sounds strange to say this, it is surprisingly reasonable when applied to her.

But considering that she wears the presidential suit and masturbates...it seems very contradictory.

But Lu Yao had to admit that compared to Xu Ruochu, Hai Hou was more like an ordinary girl.

At least in some ways, yes.

After parking the car, Hu Li held the dog and Lu Yao held the suitcase.

This time, I originally had one suitcase for my clothes, but now I have two.

He was carrying two trolley cases, and Hu Li had already put Xiaobu down.

When Xiaobu first arrived in the new environment, he was curious about everything, but he was always able to follow his owner's pace.

Arriving downstairs, she suddenly asked:

"Does your family like dogs?"

"It's okay. Although we don't have any pets at home, my mother usually feeds the cats and dogs in the neighborhood with leftovers."

Hearing this, Hu Li smiled:

"Hehe, Auntie is so nice."

Ms. Chen is really nice.

Lu Yao also thinks so.

only……

Mom, isn't that look of yours impolite?
He stood at the door, watching his mother's mouth turn into an "O" shape, her eyes widened. When he looked at Hu Li, he thought to himself, is this some alien coming out of her house?

Ms. Chen was also confused.

She must be happy that her son is back.

but……

This little bastard didn’t say anything about taking the girl… home!

But don't tell me.

Don't say that.

This girl... is very popular.

His smiling face is pleasing to look at.

And...her temperament is also quite good.

He is not short, probably about 1.7 meters tall, and seems taller than my daughter.

but……

It seems to be older than my son?

This person...

"Mom, this is Hu Li, Sister Li. She's the one I told you about last time, a friend of my boss."

"Hello, Auntie. I'm Hu Li. Hehe, I'm here to have a meal."

"Ah? Okay, okay, come in, please come in..."

Let alone Ms. Chen.

Even Lu Qing, who stood up from the sofa belatedly, was slow to react.

broken.

How come my slave brought home a girlfriend?

And... so beautiful?
She was wondering, when suddenly, Ms. Chen over there realized what her son said belatedly:

"what!?"

Ms. Chen immediately understood who this girl was...

When my son came home, he only mentioned two of them.

One is Boss Xu, and the other is... the friend of Boss Xu who spent two or three hundred thousand yuan to buy clothes for his son.

Could it be that this girl...

She subconsciously looked at Lu Yao again.

"????"

How did you bring her back?
What are you here for?

Poverty alleviation?
Just as he was thinking about it, Lu Yao, who was already starving, asked:
"Mom, is the meal ready? We are both starving."

The meal must be ready.

Can……

Ms. Chen was even more confused.

But fortunately, I didn't forget the etiquette of entertaining guests.

Although I was confused, I still said subconsciously:

"Alright, alright, hurry up, Lu Qing, entertain the guests."

"Ai."

Lu Qing responded, observing the girl in front of him, muttering about her relationship with her brother, while picking up the cup to make tea.

"Auntie, you're welcome. Let's eat first. We're both hungry."

Hu Li's straightforward words instantly brought Ms. Chen back to her senses.

Oh yes.

My son is back.

Have to eat first.

As for the rest...

You little bastard, I’ll deal with you later!

she thought to herself.

……

With her son's return, Ms. Chen would naturally prepare a good meal.

There is no doubt about this.

Moreover, they all have very homely flavors and are what Lu Yao likes to eat.

When Lu Yao saw the food on the table, his eyes lit up.

During this trip, although the northern food is delicious, it is ultimately not as good as the food at home.

As for Hu Li, he was even happier.

First of all, she was indeed hungry.

Secondly... To be honest, although Lu Yao's house is not big, from the homely furnishings to the various details full of life... everything can prove that he lives in a very happy environment.

The food cooked by a family that has such a happy environment will definitely taste great.

What's more, the family was very attentive in receiving Xiaobu.

She saw with her own eyes that Lu Yao's sister took out a small bowl from the kitchen cupboard, and Lu Yao helped to mix the milk powder and dog food.

After all the dishes were served, she automatically ignored the enthusiasm of "Don't think the food is simple, eat more" when she took the first bite.

Well……

good to eat!

Especially in such a warm atmosphere...

I’ve decided not to manage my figure today.

After Ms. Chen found out the girl's identity, she stopped asking questions.

Focus on Lu Yao's trip this time.

Before coming, Lu Yao also told Hu Li not to even think about going to Nanzang.

Hu Li also understood. After all, the transportation conditions in southern Tibet are really not as good as those in the mainland. Lu Yao’s mother would definitely be worried if she knew about it.

So I answered together with Lu Yao without any mistakes.

The farthest is Qinghai.

She understands.

Auntie, please have another bowl of rice.

Looking at her empty bowl, Ms. Chen smiled.

Obviously, the guests are satisfied and the host is also very happy.

This meal was a joy for everyone.

Hu Li really liked this home-cooked taste and ate two bowls of rice cleanly.

And after eating, she didn't stay long.

She rejected Lu Yao's offer to send her off, waved to Xiaobu while holding her, politely said goodbye to the family, and walked downstairs in a happy mood.

Lu Yao, who was seeing him off, said again:

"Sister Li, let me take you there. It's not far."

"Hee hee~"

Hu Li just smiled.

Laughing and shaking his head:
"Just take me to the gate of the community."

"It's quite hot today."

"I've already told you it doesn't matter."

She was in a good mood with a lovely smile on her face. She looked at Xiaobu running forward happily and said:
"I was in such a hurry today that I didn't have time to prepare a gift. Next time, when you want to eat Auntie's cooking, I'll come over. You can't refuse the gift I bring then."

"Well, you don't stand a chance then."

"Hey!"

Hu Li looked at him with a smirk in silence...

Suddenly pinched Lu Yao's face:

"Don't you dare let me give it a try? I'll strangle you to death!"

"Hahaha, I dare not, it hurts..."

After hearing this, Hu Li let go of his hand.

It was unknown how long the rainy season had passed, but the sunny weather in Shanghai and the comfort of having a good meal and a good drink were enough to make her feel happy that the world was so beautiful.

She chuckled, then suddenly put her hands behind her back, tilted her head and looked at Lu Yao in a very cute manner:

"I'm going to make an appointment with Qianqian tomorrow. Let's go shopping. I want to go to the amusement park. Would you like to come with me?"

"...Aren't you afraid that Sister Chu will come over with a knife?"

"Uh……"

Hu Li was stunned, and the expression on his face suddenly turned from sunny to cloudy:
"I don't... I don't want to go to work! I'm so tired! I don't want to go..."

That charm suddenly began to spread without warning.

Unfortunately, Lu Yao could do nothing to help:
"Sister, this is a job opening. As the vice president, you have to go, especially since tomorrow's job opening is for the head of a major department."

"..."

Hu Li's facial features were squeezed together in sadness.

But in the end, he nodded as if resigned to his fate: "Okay. How many days do you plan to rest?"

"Let's spend the day tomorrow. Mr. Xu's house still needs to be cleaned up."

"That……"

Hu Li, who looked distressed, thought about it and realized that he couldn't escape it, so he said helplessly:

"Well, I feel like my world is falling apart."

Lu Yao thought to himself that your ball is too fragile.

At this time, Lu Yao, who had already walked to the gate of the community, saw an empty car and waved.

The taxi is coming this way.

"Xiaobu, come here."

he shouted.

The little wolfdog, who was still exploring the world, came running over, and he picked it up and handed it to Hu Li:
"Go back and have a good sleep before the world collapses."

“… Annoying!”

Hu Li rolled his eyes, took the puppy, opened the car door and got in.

"I'm leaving now. I'll text you later."

"Uh……"

Lu Yao thought if there was anything, just call.

What message to send?
But he still smiled and nodded:
"Ok."

Then he watched her leave and went straight back home.

When I got home, the washing machine had already started humming.

Ms. Chen, who came out from the small balcony, said:

"Did you buy these clothes...yourself?"

"No, the boss bought it for me."

After he finished speaking, Lu Qing, who was helping with the laundry, took an outdoor coat and said:

"Archaeopteryx, you are really rich. How much is this dress?"

"More than ten thousand. You should put on some clothes. It's colder in France than here."

Lu Qing was stunned:
"Give it to me?"

"Well, when I bought it, I picked a size smaller. You have to wear it open, so it should be slightly larger for you. Try it on."

Hearing this, Lu Qing put on the outdoor clothes directly.

Not to mention...

Just right.

It's a size that won't look out of place on girls.

And it's black. Apart from the fact that the style is slightly different from normal women's clothing, there is nothing wrong with it.

“It’s just right.”

"Yes, but you can't wear the pants, so the clothes are yours and the pants are mine, okay?"

"I'll just take this one, you can keep the others."

"I always buy them in a smaller size, and they're uncomfortable to wear. Try putting the quilted top on and it should be a perfect fit. It's quite cold in France, and this kind of clothing is durable and resistant. I bought these according to your size, and they're all black, except for the dark blue one, which is for our dad. You have to take care of yourself when you go out... oh, right."

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something and asked:

"Mom, where can I get a piece of clothing with a packaging bag?"

"The army green one? I just put it in the washing machine. What's wrong?"

"fine."

Lu Yao shook his head.

Then, while my mother was washing the dishes, I pulled Lu Qing and whispered:

"That one is for your boyfriend. Aren't you two going together..."

"..."

Lu Qing's mouth twitched.

"Do you know his size?"

"I don't know, I bought it in my size."

Wu Nan is 1.82 meters tall and the two of them have similar builds.

Hearing this, Lu Qing looked at his brother, who was much darker than before he left, and suddenly softened his tone:

"I suddenly feel so guilty..."

"You feel guilty ass."

Lu Yao rolled his eyes, unable to bear her hypocritical behavior.

"Mom, where's my acceptance letter?"

"In your sister's room."

"…Mom! That's my room!"

"..."

Ms. Chen said nothing.

She couldn't say anything more at this time. If she said one more word, her son might be beaten.

……

"Son, look at the photo."

After washing the dishes, Ms. Chen took out her cell phone and sat next to her son.

Lu Yao saw a picture of an unfamiliar bedroom on his mother’s phone.

The bedroom was very simple, with just a bed and a simple, cheap-looking small table serving as a bedside table.

"This is……"

"Shengshi Garden, your father and I bought the bed a few days ago."

"Then can we go live there?"

"We discussed it and decided to wait a little longer to let the smell go. Now, every day after get off work, I will run to open the doors and windows. When your father goes to work, he will leave a little earlier and close the doors and windows when he gets there. I also bought a lot of green radishes, and we will be able to move in in a month or two. I also bought an air conditioner. This air conditioner is good, it costs more than 10,000 yuan, and the living room over there is big, so the small air conditioner can't be turned on. Oh, it's good in every way, but it consumes too much electricity..."

Lu Yao hadn't been home for more than 20 days. As soon as he came back, Ms. Chen couldn't wait to share the changes in "home" with him.

But his focus is on his father:
"How's my dad's job?"

"Very well. Look..."

Ms. Chen stood up and opened the TV cabinet.

Lu Yao saw the bottle of Moutai inside.

"This was given to your father's leader two days ago. He gave it directly to your father. And this cigarette..."

She took out two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes from the cupboard:

"Last time we went to dinner, there was half a pack of cigarettes left on the table, and your dad ran back to get it. Your dad isn't used to smoking this, so I'll give it to you."

"Keep it for the guests."

Lu Yao didn't really care about these things, he just asked:

"So... Dad is very happy?"

"I'm so happy. The work is very easy every day. Your dad's back pain and stomach problems haven't recurred for a long time. When I went back to my hometown to hold a graduation party for you last time, I specially found a local old Chinese doctor to give him acupuncture for three days. Oh, now he says every day that his waist feels so good~"

When talking about this, Ms. Chen was beaming with joy.

Her husband's job is so stable and well-paid, which in her opinion is the best thing that could happen.

And Lu Qing nodded beside him:
"Of course. Dad comes home at a fixed time now, and the two of them go out dancing every day. No one cares about me every day."

"You are already so old, who needs to take care of you?"

Ms. Chen raised her eyebrows:
"I'm telling you, if I let you study abroad, you should study hard. If you dare to deal with those bad people, party and drink, or go on strike and march, if you dare to do that, I will go to France and bring you back and break your legs! Did you hear me?"

"..."

Lu Qing's mouth twitched.

Lu Yao was happy.

Hey.

It’s good to interrupt.

Beautifully broken.

Looking at his mother who suddenly opened up and started criticizing the bastard, he leaned back on the sofa in a good mood.

"call……"

Breathe a long sigh of relief.

Sure enough, home is still the best.

……

In the afternoon, Lu Yao was not idle either. He first sent the X6 for cleaning. After it was clean, he drove directly to Fortune Garden.

However, he did not go to Xu Ruochu's house, but came to the property management.

I made an appointment for a housekeeping team to clean up tomorrow morning.

Xu Ruochu has some reservations about these housekeeping matters, so this time Lu Yao will follow along to ensure that everything is tidied up.

When I finished my work and returned home, I found that Lu Yuanshan had already arrived home.

Lu Yao took a look...

It's not even five o'clock yet.

"Dad? Why are you back?"

"It's time to get off work."

“…No need to punch in?”

"No, I went to Sheshan with Mr. Guo. I reported it as a business trip. I came back after sending him back."

As Lu Yuanshan spoke, he looked at his son, who had become much darker, with a gratified and reassuring expression:
"Did you have fun?"

"Yeah. Dad, the blue one is for you."

Lu Yuanshan glanced at the dark blue windbreaker.

I don't care.

Just asked:

"School is about to start, right?"

"Well, military training number 16."

"Military training...living on campus?"

"Correct."

"Then ask your mother to prepare your bedding for you in the next two days."

"I can do it myself."

Hearing his son's words, the middle-aged man nodded again.

He didn't feel any pain of separation.

Firstly, I used to drive a big truck, so I’m used to this kind of difference.

Secondly...my son is studying in Shanghai, so if he wants to come back, it would only take a few minutes, right?

So it feels basically no different from normal.

and……

Don't even say it.

For some reason, he felt that his son's revenge on Hua was right.

If he really went to Qinghua, Yanjing is so far away... Now that his job is stable and he enjoys family happiness every day, he misses his son terribly just because he hasn't seen his son for these 20 days.

If I go to Yanjing and stay there for half a year, can I still bear it?
But it’s different at Fuhua.

Fuhua is so great.

My son is right next to me and I can see him whenever I want.

His eyes fell on the little man, and there was a special kind of relief and satisfaction in his eyes.

With this joyful mood, he smiled and said:
"Go, buy a bag of peanuts and some braised pork, and have a drink with dad tonight."

"okay."
