"Oh, isn't this Shanhe, the eldest son of the old Zhao family? Is it you?"
After seeing Zhao Shanhe get out of the car, an old man wearing a sheepskin coat shouted in surprise.
"Yes, it's me, Third Grandpa. I haven't seen you for a few years, but you are still so strong!"
As Zhao Shanhe said this, he took out a box of red Chinese food and handed it over.
"Third Grandpa, you smoke."
"Why are you back?" Third Grandpa asked in disbelief.
This is a question, how do you want me to answer it?
This is my home, why can’t I come back?
But when he thought about how he left Zhaojiazhai, Zhao Shanhe knew what the third grandfather meant by asking this question.
However, he had no intention of explaining. Instead, he walked around naturally and gave the rest directly to the third grandfather.
"Third Grandpa, please rest, I will go back first." Zhao Shanhe said with a smile.
"Okay, go back quickly. By the way, will you celebrate the New Year in the village this year?" Third Grandpa asked smoothly.
"I'm coming back just to celebrate the New Year."
Zhao Shanhe said as he opened the car door and got in. As soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the Crown car drove forward.
Watching the car shadow disappear before his eyes, the third grandfather showed a sigh of relief on his face.
"Zhonghua Cigarettes, this box costs at least dozens of yuan, right? It seems that Zhao Shanhe got involved."
"It goes without saying that if you can afford to drive a car, you will definitely get rich!"
"Third uncle, isn't Zhao Shanhe afraid that his father will beat him to death? Does he still dare to come back?"
"What nonsense."
When the third grandfather heard this, he couldn't help but glared: "If Zhao Yonghao keeps fooling around, will he really beat him to death? Besides, tiger poison cannot eat its seeds, are you willing to beat your son?"
"Hehe, of course I can't bear to part with it!"
Just as the group of people at the entrance of the village were discussing, Zhao Shanhe also drove his car in front of his house.
Looking at the simple brick house in front of him, Zhao Shanhe felt quite emotional.
This is the place where he was born and raised, where he spent all his childhood, and he has very strong feelings for it.
You must know that even in later generations, he never gave up here and would come back to stay for a few days every year.
But now, he hasn't been back for several years.
It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I can't.
Thinking of what he had done in the past, he felt particularly guilty.
Even when he arrived at the door of his home, he didn't dare to get out of the car or walk into this familiar door.
"Shanhe, let's go down."
Li Qiuya looked at the door of the house in front of her, subconsciously held Zhao Shanhe's hand and said.
She is actually very unfamiliar with this place.
I think I got married here when I first got married, and I never came back after that.
In fact, she really wanted to come here, but if Zhao Shanhe didn't say anything about coming back, how could Li Qiuya come alone?
"Shanhe, look, are those Xiaolin and Shanchuan?"
Li Qiuya pointed at the two people who suddenly walked out of the alley and said.
"Yes, it's them!"
Zhao Shanhe didn't hesitate anymore and directly opened the door and got out of the car.
"Xiao Lin! Xiao Chuan!"
"Brother, is it really you? Are you back?"
Zhao Shanchuan, who is in the third grade of junior high school this year, suddenly saw Zhao Shanhe. He wiped his eyes hard in disbelief and couldn't help shouting.
Zhao Lin stood there blankly, holding a bunch of vegetables in her hands, pursed her lips and said nothing. She looked at Zhao Shanhe with a look of surprise, surprise, and a hint of resentment.
"I'm back, here for the New Year." Zhao Shanhe hurried up to greet him and said.
"Xiaolin, come on, give me something."
As soon as Zhao Shanhe stretched out his hand, Zhao Lin retracted it, glared at him fiercely, turned around and walked into the house.
Zhao Shanhe suddenly seemed a little embarrassed, but he was not angry at all.
He knew that although Zhao Lin was only a sophomore in high school this year, she was a very independent person.
The reason why she treats herself so indifferently is because what happened back then hurt her, and it's normal for her to refuse to forgive.
"Brother, where did this car come from?" Zhao Shanchuan looked at the crown and asked excitedly.
"Of course I bought it, Xiaochuan, didn't you see your sister-in-law? Why don't you say hello to your sister-in-law quickly?" Zhao Shanhe pointed to his side and said.
"Hello, sister-in-law!" Zhao Shanchuan nodded quickly and shouted.
"Xiaochuan, don't listen to your brother. Don't be cautious as a family. Come on, we brought a lot of things in the car. Help us move them." Li Qiuya said, opening the trunk and moving boxes one by one.
"good!"
Zhao Shanchuan carried a box of liquor and returned home happily. As soon as he walked into the courtyard, he shouted: "Mom, Dad, come out quickly, my eldest brother is back."
There was a moment of silence in the house.
After Zhao Shanchuan put down the box, he directly opened the cotton curtain and shouted: "Mom, Dad, didn't you hear? I said the eldest brother is back."
"Come back as soon as you come back, what? Do you still want me to go and greet him?"
Inside the room, Zhao Yonghao, who was smoking a dry pipe, raised the pipe and shouted with an indifferent expression.
Zhao Shanchuan immediately shut up and stood aside obediently, not daring to say any more.
"Tell me, my child finally came back. What are you doing? Xiaohe, come in quickly." At this time, only Zhao Shanhe's wife, Lin Chunyan, dared to speak like this.
But just when she was about to step out, Zhao Yonghao's face darkened and he shouted loudly:
"Don't go!"
"Me!" Lin Chunyan stopped immediately.
In this family, Zhao Yonghao is the well-deserved patriarch, and his words are the will of the family.
Lin Chunyan has never said a word "no" to Zhao Yonghao in these years, so when she heard Zhao Yonghao's words, she stopped immediately and did not dare to go out.
A thin cotton curtain separated the father and son.
Zhao Shanhe, carrying a cigarette and wine, was standing outside the door, separated by a cotton curtain, but after hearing Zhao Yonghao's words, he stopped when he was about to open his hand.
His face was nervous and he was worried inside.
He knew that it would not be easy to go home this time. He had no choice. Who knew that he was such a badass in the past? He was so badass that he even dared to do that kind of thing. No wonder I was so angry.
If it were him, I'm afraid it wouldn't be just like this, and he might even take action long ago.
But he also knew that Zhao Yonghao was really kind to him, loving him so much that he hated him so much, and he had really broken his father's heart, which was why he was so hateful and indifferent.
.
He stood and dared not go in.
And no one in the room dared to come out without Zhao Yonghao saying anything.
Seeing the atmosphere stiffen, Li Qiuya smiled slightly, opened the door curtain and walked in.
"Mom and Dad, I'm here to see you." Li Qiuya said with a gentle smile as soon as she walked in.
After seeing Li Qiuya, Zhao Yonghao's face softened and he forced out a smile.
No matter what, he was very satisfied with Li Qiuya as his daughter-in-law and could not find fault with her.
He could shame Zhao Shanhe, but he couldn't do this to Li Qiuya.
"Qiu Ya is here, Xiaochuan, why are you still standing there? Hurry and get a bench for your sister-in-law." Zhao Yonghao waved.
"Sister-in-law, sit down." Zhao Shanchuan handed over a mazha.
"good!"
After Li Qiuya sat down, she started talking to Zhao Yonghao and Lin Chunyan.
That's half an hour.
Zhao Shanhe stood outside, listening to the lively chat inside, and secretly felt sad in his heart: Wife, have you forgotten me? I'm still freezing outside the door.
