"Zhou Bingyi."
"Brother Bingyi."
Zhou Chen and Xiao Guoqing shouted loudly. In this crowded train station, you can only call by name. If you call "big brother" or something like that, dozens of people will look over you in minutes.
Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei glanced around following the sound, and then locked on Zhou Chen and Xiao Guoqing.
Zhou Bingyi said happily: "There, Dongmei, that's my brother Bingkun. I won't admit my mistake."
Although they hadn't seen each other for seven years, Zhou Bingyi quickly recognized his biological brother.
"Come on, let's go there."
Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei squeezed for a while and finally arrived at Zhou Chen's side.
Seeing Zhou Chen approaching Chi Chi, Zhou Bingyi excitedly stepped forward and gave Zhou Chen a hug.
"Bingkun."
"Brother."
Zhou Bingyi patted Zhou Chen's back hard before letting go.
"Bingkun, long time no see. You have changed a lot. You are stronger and calmer."
If it were Zhou Bingkun from the past, meeting him again after so many years, he would definitely be happy and incoherent.
But Zhou Chen in front of him was very calm, which made Zhou Bingyi very emotional.
But he didn't know that the man in front of him could no longer be regarded as his biological brother. On the outside, he had not changed, but on the inside, he had already changed. His brotherly love for him was not as deep as before.
As he said that, he pointed to Hao Dongmei next to him: "This is your sister-in-law, Hao Dongmei, you have seen her before."
Zhou Chen greeted you politely: "Sister-in-law, if it hadn't been for my eldest brother who introduced you, I really wouldn't have dared to recognize you. You are much more beautiful than before."
Hao Dongmei said with some embarrassment: "Really? I thought I was uglier than before."
As a former high-ranking cadre student, her life in the past few years has been a real torment for her. If Zhou Bingyi had not been with her to comfort her and help her, she might not have been able to hold on long ago.
Zhou Bingyi laughed and said: "Dongmei, although my brother Bingkun was naughty before, he is right. You are more beautiful than before."
Hao Dongmei gave Zhou Bingyi an angry look.
Zhou Chen pointed at Xiao Guoqing next to him and introduced: "Brother, this is National Day. It's not convenient for Zheng Juan, so I asked Guoqing to come with me. We rode two cars. You can ride one with me later."
Sister-in-law, I will ride with you on National Day."
Zhou Bingyi could recognize his own brother, but he really couldn't recognize Xiao Guoqing.
"It's National Day. Thank you so much for even making a special trip."
Xiao Guoqing quickly shook hands with Zhou Bingyi and said: "Brother Bingyi, you are too polite. Kun'er has helped me so much, and I just helped pick up someone. It's really nothing."
"Thank you, thank you."
Zhou Chen said: "Brother, you have brought all your things. Let's go back quickly. Mom misses you."
Hearing Zhou Chen mention his mother, Zhou Bingyi's eyes turned slightly red: "I miss her too, Bingkun, is our mother in good health now?"
Although he has been writing letters to his family over the years, writing letters is still writing letters and there is no real person in sight. That feeling is irreplaceable.
Zhou Chen said: "Our mother is in good health, but she misses you so much. A few years ago, her eyes were not well from crying because of Zhou Rong's incident. But then I gave her medicine to take care of her, and she has recovered a little now.
It’s a big problem. If there is any change, it is that we are much older than when you left seven years ago.”
Most people in this era have been working since childhood and are prone to premature aging. Therefore, although Li Suhua is only about fifty years old now, she looks like she is sixty years old.
When Zhou Bingyi heard this, he felt even sadder and choked up: "We are sorry for our mother. We haven't come back to see her for so many years."
Speaking of this, Zhou Chen also felt that several people in the Zhou family were unreliable. It would be fine to say that none of them had any holidays, but in fact, whether it was Zhou Zhigang, Zhou Bingyi or Zhou Rong, they all had the opportunity to go home.
But due to various reasons, none of them have ever come back. If the situation hadn't been special in a few years and things were a little more relaxed, they probably wouldn't have come back.
Zhou Chen didn't know whether they missed the old lady outside, but he knew how Li Suhua missed them.
"Let's go, it's not convenient here. If you have anything to say, we'd better go back and talk."
The current train station was too chaotic. Zhou Chen didn't want to stay here for a long time, so he took Zhou Bingyi and the others and left quickly.
Zhou Bingyi brought back a lot of things, but he could still fit two bicycles.
Before they got home, Zhou Chen and others saw Li Suhua waiting on the road. Zhou Bingyi immediately stopped the car, put the car away, and rushed towards Li Suhua.
"mom."
Li Suhua even burst into tears with excitement: "Bingyi, my Bingyi, you are finally back. I miss my mother so much. Come on, let me see you."
Li Suhua stroked Zhou Bingyi's cheeks with both hands, from his forehead to his eyes, to his nose and chin. The more he looked at it, the happier he became.
"Damn Bingyi has grown up and matured."
Zhou Bingyi choked up and said: "Mom, no matter what I become, I am still your son, and I will always be your son. Mom, I'm sorry, it's all my fault that I don't have time to come back to see you."
This time, Hao Dongmei's parents were rehabilitated, so Hao Dongmei was able to leave. Otherwise, whether he could let Hao Dongmei go was another matter.
"I don't blame you, you can't help yourself."
Of course, Li Suhua would not be willing to blame her eldest son. She looked at Zhou Bingyi for a long time before turning her eyes away and looked at Hao Dongmei beside her.
Zhou Bingyi left and said, "Mom, this is Dongmei. You saw her when you were in school."
Hao Dongmei called out politely: "Mom."
"Good boy, good boy."
Li Suhua happily held Hao Dongmei's hands. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her. She was an old lady with a relatively simple mind. Even when Hao Dongmei was in despair, she never disliked her, and she certainly wouldn't do it now.
"Dongmei, you must have had a hard time on the road."
"It's not hard, not hard at all."
Seeing them chatting in the ice and snow, Zhou Chen couldn't help but said: "Mom, do you have something to say that we can't talk about at home? How long can we stand here and talk in this cold weather?"
Li Suhua, who was just happy, suddenly cursed angrily: "You brat, why do you talk so much?"
Zhou Chen shrugged and said: "I know you miss me, but my brother and the others are tired from traveling all the way, so let them go home early and rest before we talk."
Only then did Li Suhua react. She patted her forehead and said with a smile: "Oh, look at how old I am. Bingyi, Dongmei, let's go home."
Seeing Li Suhua pulling Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei away first, Zhou Chen looked helplessly at the salute left behind.
Okay, do it yourself.
He and Xiao Guoqing sent all the salutes home. Zhou Chen grabbed Xiao Guoqing who was about to leave and said, "Guo Qing, don't leave. Stay for dinner. My eldest brother just happened to be back. You can have a few drinks with me later."
.”
Xiao Guoqing waved his hands repeatedly: "No, Brother Bingyi has just come back. Please talk more. I have something to do at home, so I'll leave first."
No matter what Zhou Chen did, Xiao Guoqing wanted to leave. In the end, Zhou Chen had no choice but to bring him something back. There was no room for Xiao Guoqing to shirk this time.
After seeing off Xiao Guoqing, Zhou Chen walked into the house and found that several people at home were already sitting on the sofa and chatting.
Li Suhua and Zhou Bingyi were sitting together and chatting, while the sisters-in-law Hao Dongmei and Zheng Juan were holding hands and talking.
As for Zhou Rui, he was held by Zheng Guangming. He looked curiously at Zhou Bingyi and then at Hao Dongmei, feeling very curious about these two people who had suddenly arrived.
Zhou Chen walked to the stool next to the sofa and sat down. As soon as he sat down, Zhou Bingyi said to him: "Bingkun, I learned something about you in the letter before. You are really promising now. You are a great poet and a great writer."
, It’s amazing, both Zhou Rong and I have been outclassed by you.”
Zhou Chen said: "It's just so-so, nothing worthy of praise."
"How come, your pen name is 'Zhou Chen', and now you are one of the most famous poets in China. I don't know how many people admire you and admire you,"
Although Zhou Bingyi was building a corps, he also knew some about Zhou Chen through newspapers, and also knew how popular Zhou Chen was in the outside world.
Hao Dongmei also said: "Yes, Bingkun, your elder brother is right, you are famous now. If nothing else, in our village, many girls like me, after hearing your poems,
I respect and admire you very much, and I don’t even dare to tell you your true identity, otherwise they will definitely go crazy.”
Zhou Bingyi said: "The girls in your sister-in-law's place are basically the children of high-ranking officials in the past, and they are all educated and educated young women. They all admire you so much, which shows how powerful you are now."
He was shocked that his brother had become a great poet and writer, because it was so dreamy.
"Bingkun, I've never quite figured it out. You didn't like studying the most before. Why did you suddenly become so powerful as soon as we left?"
Zhou Chen replied: "To say this, you have a share of credit. Do you still remember the books you asked me to keep? After you left, I took them out to read out of boredom. I just wanted to I was just passing the time, but I didn’t expect that the more I watched it, the more I enjoyed it, and the more I watched it, the more I liked it.”
