In the early morning, Li Manjun woke up and found snow falling outside the window, spreading all over the city.
"I don't know if Lijun got on the plane successfully, but she didn't even send a message to tell me." Li Manjun looked at the falling snow outside the window and babbled.
Zhao Yong stretched his arms and legs, and all the heat in the bed was gone. Just as Li Manjun was about to remind him to pay attention, a pair of ape arms stretched out and dragged her over.
"Come, let me warm you up."
"Stinking rogue!"
The couple stayed in bed for a while and then got up.
Seeing Li Manjun talking about Li Lijun, Zhao Yong said funnyly: "She is already such a big person, so don't treat her like a child. Lijun is a college student, and she can't fly by herself?"
"By the way, I have arranged for Xiaoguan to pick her up, so don't worry."
Li Manjun smiled helplessly, "It's snowing, please tell Xiaoguan to pay attention to safety on the road."
"Old driver, don't worry." After Zhao Yong finished speaking, he spat out the foam in his mouth, poured two mouthfuls of water directly into the faucet, and finished brushing his teeth.
Li Manjun was really worried and couldn't calm down to deal with things when he came to the company.
She and Li Wei were the only ones in the recycling shop. Now that the sorting yard has been established and the recycling waste is processed directly there, the yard is now empty.
Wang Dasheng didn't know where he got a lot of flowers and plants and planted them all over the yard. It's probably too cold because of the heavy snow today. These plants don't look like they used to.
Li Lijun's flight was at 7:30 in the morning. The journey lasted about three hours. She landed at 10:30. Li Manjun raised her wrist and looked at her watch. It was already 10:30. Why hasn't the call come yet?
It's not because the plane was delayed due to unusual weather, right?
Rongcheng and Dongshi are so close. If it snows here, the weather there should also be affected.
Just as Li Manjun was thinking about it, the phone rang. It was Xiaoguan calling, saying that he had received the call.
Li Manjun then patted his chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Then she was startled again. She didn't know when she started to really regard herself as Li Manjun of this era. She took these family members into her heart, rejoicing for them and feeling sad for them.
It just feels good, just let nature take its course.
Li Lijun arrived in the afternoon. I don't know if it was Zhao Yong's instruction. Instead of going home first, she went to the recycling store to meet her sister, and the two sisters went home together.
Zhao Yong previously told Li Lijun to work as a training teacher at Junda Company, so Li Lijun will not go back to town this winter vacation.
Li Manjun asked her: "Sleep in the study or continue to sleep with Nian Nian?"
Li Lijun hugged her aunt Nian Nian, who was a little unrecognizable, and said cheerfully: "Of course she will sleep with our little Nian Nian. In the evening, will aunt tell Nian Nian a story?"
Nian Nian weakly called out: "Mom." Looking at her mother, and then at the happy woman in front of her, she felt that the two people looked a bit alike, and she was confused.
Li Lijun laughed out loud, deliberately stood with her sister, and asked her niece, "Which one is the mother?"
Li Manjun glanced at her sister confidently, "It is impossible for my daughter to recognize her mother by mistake."
As expected, it turned out that every year he could recognize his mother, and he stretched out his hand to Li Manjun, asking her mother to hold her.
Li Lijun teased her for a long time, playing and eating with her, and the little girl became familiar with her. When Li Lijun was packing her luggage, she followed her aunt, looking here and there, with her little hands behind her back, curious like an old mother.
As soon as Li Lijun came, Sister Zhou felt that the burden on her shoulders was immediately lightened. Auntie knew how to take care of the children every year and was very patient, so she hardly needed any help.
Li Manjun and Zhao Yong also felt that their ears were much quieter when they came home from get off work.
Because Li Lijun plays with Nian Nian and patiently tells her stories. She doesn’t dislike her childishness at all. The child knows how good she is, so she clings to her aunt to play with.
During the day, Li Lijun went to the training class of Junda Company. The training class already had a teacher, and the two of them came in shifts, one morning and one afternoon. Li Lijun was in the morning class and could go home early in the afternoon.
When the weather got better and the snow stopped, Li Lijun dressed up Nian Nian, put on little gloves and rain boots, and led her downstairs to build a snowman and have a snowball fight.
It snowed very hard this year, and there was about 20 centimeters of snow in the community. As soon as school was over, the children in the community rushed into the community and would not leave until their parents called them home for dinner.
During the days when my aunt was here, I was extremely happy every year. When the end of the year was approaching and Li Lijun returned to town early, the little girl cried heartbrokenly.
Li Manjun and Zhao Yong were both shocked. They had never heard their daughter cry so sadly. Zhao Yong was so distressed that he coaxed her: "Shall we go to the town to play with my aunt tomorrow?"
Nian Nian then stopped crying, held his father's hand, pointed at the phone, and motioned for him to call Li Lijun and said Nian Nian would come.
Zhao Yong looked at Li Manjun in surprise, but he didn't expect that his daughter was no longer easy to fool.
"How about sending her to the town to stay for a few days?" Li Manjun asked tentatively.
Zhao Yong worried: "Will it disturb my parents?"
Moreover, he was worried that his father-in-law and mother-in-law would not be able to take care of his daughter. If he came to Heather Town crying and looking for his parents, they would have to go and pick him up immediately. It would be too much trouble to run back and forth.
Every year I open my big, tearful eyes, and when I see my parents still haven’t called me, my mouth tightens, and I am gathering strength.
Li Manjun rubbed his eyebrows, picked up the phone, and looked down. The little girl immediately raised her eyebrows and looked at her expectantly.
My heart softened and I actually made the call.
Wang Xiaojuan was so happy that she promised to send it back to her parents immediately if she clamored for her parents every year.
So, what else could Li Manjun say? He nodded at his daughter's fair and tender little fat face and said, "You are happy now. Don't cry again when you get to grandpa and grandma's house."
Nian Nian smiled happily and obediently allowed her mother to take her to the bathroom, wipe the cat's face clean, and sleep peacefully.
Li Manjun and Zhao Yong were still lucky, thinking that their daughter might forget it when she woke up the next day, but they underestimated their daughter's memory.
As soon as she woke up in the morning, she asked Sister Zhou to help her put on her big coat when she went out. She also pulled out the red flower jacket she wore during the Chinese New Year last year from her own small wardrobe, pointed at it and looked at Sister Zhou with expectant eyes.
Unfortunately, last year's clothes were a lot too short, so Sister Zhou couldn't let her wear this, so she chose a long down jacket that fit her from head to toe.
A white down jacket and a red woolen hat make her face flush and make people want to take a bite.
Relying on her identity as a biological mother, Li Manjun said, "Huh!" and kissed her twice. She showed a patient and helpless look every year, and looked at her father for help.
Unexpectedly, instead of saving her, her father took a big mouthful of her. Her left and right faces became symmetrical, and her little brows drooped every year, making her very depressed.
But I soon forgot about this little worry. I sat in the back seat with my mother and my father drove the car, and went to my grandparents' house to play with my aunt.
