Ni Yinghong had no choice but to go home and take out two hot water bottles, which are IV bottles from the hospital. Fill them with boiling water and put a layer of cotton on them. They can be used to keep warm and give you a few sips when you are thirsty.
Practical and affordable.
After stuffing a hot water bottle into the arms of Huniu and Chu Zhecheng each, Xiao Ni didn't look back. He also followed the two little guys to guard the entrance of the alley, staring at the direction of the intersection with a pair of peach blossom eyes, looking forward to that day.
The man I longed for at night would appear soon.
This went on for a while.
A red flag car suddenly drove over. When Ni Yinghong saw it, a flower-like smile bloomed on her beautiful face. She was indescribably excited and stepped forward to take Chu Heng home.
There are not many cars these days, and Hongqi is even rarer. It is rare to see one here in Banchang Hutong all year round, so if a car can come here at this time, there is a high probability that it is for Chu Heng.
.
"Godmother, does this car belong to godfather?" Huniu was a clever girl. Seeing her unusual reaction, she stood up and asked.
"Probably." Ni Yinghong nodded with curved eyebrows, and the bright smile at the corner of her mouth eclipsed the colorful late autumn.
"Oh! Godfather is back!"
Hu Niu immediately jumped up and cheered.
"My dad is back, my dad is back!" Chu Zhecheng was also very excited, but he just shouted and squatted without moving. His legs were numb...
A few moments.
The red flag car drove to the entrance of the alley. Before the car could stop, Chu Heng, who had already noticed his wife and children, could not restrain his longing for her. He hurriedly opened the car door and ran out, heading straight for Ni Yinghong and the others.
"Godfather!"
"father!"
The two little ones immediately jumped up excitedly, and the three spotted dogs also jumped over happily wagging their tails.
"Ha ha."
Chu Heng laughed, knelt down and picked them up one by one.
"I miss you, godfather." Huniu put her hands around Chu Heng's neck, kissed him hard on the face, and happily shook her little feet hanging in the air.
"Really? It seems that my godfather's love for you is not in vain." Chu Heng smiled and kissed her on the cheek.
"I miss you too, dad." Chu Zhecheng also shouted loudly.
"Good son!" Chu Heng also kissed him, then put the two of them on the ground, kicked away the spotted dog that was spinning around him, looked at his wife in front of him, whose eyes were red with excitement, stepped forward and said,
Kai hugged her tightly in his arms: "Have you missed me?"
Xiao Ni, who had not seen her husband for several days, was so excited that she couldn't control her shyness. She leaned on his chest intoxicatedly and nodded gently: "Yes."
"cough!"
Suddenly there was a slight cough from the car behind. Meng Huazhi smiled and reminded them: "There are people coming and going on this street. You two, please pay attention to the impact."
"Why are you so annoying? My own wife, what's wrong with me giving her a hug? What's the impact?" Chu Heng, who was in a heated mood, glared at him with dissatisfaction and waved his hand to drive him away: "Go back quickly.
Count the money, but don't be an eyesore here."
"Oh, why are you talking to the leader?" Xiao Ni blushed and pushed him away.
"This brat!" Meng Huazhi's current state is like that of an old father who has just brought back his dog after a long journey. No matter how he looks at him, he is pleasing to the eye, and he is not worried at this time. He smiled and said: "
Okay, then I won’t be in the way here, you can have a good reunion, and I’ll have someone contact you in a few days.”
"No, boss, we're already at the door of our house. Why don't we come in and sit for a while? I just have a bite of the fried noodles made at home." Xiao Ni hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her to stay.
"Let's wait another day. Today is your family reunion. I won't cause any trouble as an outsider. Let's go." Meng Huazhi greeted the driver who had just taken out Chu Heng's luggage, and soon the red flag car slowly drove away.
.
Ni Yinghong glanced at the car driving away and wanted to blame Chu Heng, but she couldn't bear it. She shook her head helplessly and stepped forward to help get the luggage.
"Don't move, these boxes are very heavy." Chu Heng refused to let her touch them. He picked up one with one hand, put another one under the creaking nest, and said, "Let's go home!"
"Go home!"
Siblings Huniu and Chu Zhecheng followed closely behind, walking into the alley.
Ni Yinghong stayed by his side with a sweet face, turning her head to look at him from time to time. She couldn't get enough of it: "Did the trip go well?"
"It went very smoothly. Didn't the leader send me back in person... How is the family doing when I'm not here?"
"It's nothing serious. It's just that the old lady got sick last time. I asked Mr. Tang to come and take a look at her. It's nothing serious anymore."
"Where is Chu Zhile?"
"She can crawl now and is not restless at all."
The couple talked about homely things, with warmth in the ordinary, like the calm before the storm.
After a while, several people returned to the door.
The courtyard door was opened early to welcome Chu Heng's return.
Stepping over the high threshold and looking at the screen wall in front of him, Chu Heng suddenly felt his body and mind relax, and he felt indescribably comfortable.
"It's better to be at home." He couldn't help but sigh.
"That's for sure. Even though there are a lot of good things out there, none of them are as good as home." Xiao Ni said with a smile.
"You're right." Chu Heng looked at his delicate wife with deep approval.
"Woof woof woof."
While they were talking, they walked around the screen wall, and then they heard dogs barking from the courtyard. Two old dogs, black and white, rushed over with joy.
Immediately afterwards, Yang Guizhi and Qin Jingru also came out of the backyard quickly. Seeing that Chu Heng was back, they greeted him with smiles on their faces.
"I'm back now. Come on, give me the stuff."
"elder brother!"
The two of them grabbed the suitcase in his hand without any explanation, and together with Ni Yinghong and others, they followed Chu Heng back to the main room.
"Come back, little Hengzi." The deaf old lady was also in the main room at this time, looking at him with a smile on her face as he walked in. Chu Zhile, who was more than half a year old, sat in the old lady's arms, blinking the big eyes inherited from her,
He looked curiously at his father, whom he had long forgotten about.
"well."
Chu Heng stepped forward in response and looked down at his daughter. Her chubby white face and big, pure, jewel-like eyes made his heart melt. He stretched out his hand tentatively: "Come on, daddy, give her a hug."
Chu Zhile immediately grinned and stretched out his arms for him to hold.
"Hey." Chu Heng looked as if he was happy. He quickly hugged his daughter and kissed her a few times. Then he sat down next to the old lady, chatting with everyone and teasing a few children. The whole family was enjoying themselves.
After a while, Yang Guizhi brought dinner. There were fried noodles with soy sauce that Chu Heng specially ordered in the telegram, as well as four main dishes, braised pork elbow, sweet and sour pork ribs, fried tenderloin, and three cups of chicken. None of them were vegetarian.
The whole family mistakenly thought that the grandson must not eat or drink well outside, so they specially prepared some meat and vegetables.
But Chu Heng didn't move his chopsticks at all, he just stared at the noodles and ate them. After swirling three large bowls in one go, he stopped with his chopsticks satisfied.
