Shortly after being discharged from the hospital, Chen Shu felt ashamed of his parents who had broken his heart and took the initiative to make an appointment to go home to visit his elders.
After parking the golf car on the roadside, Chen Shu got out of the car and went downstairs to the old building where he had lived for more than ten years as a child. He looked up at the window of his bedroom.
Back then, he had been sitting by the window studying for ten years, dreaming of being a scientist, an archaeologist, a musician, etc., but in the blink of an eye he had become a people's policeman.
Time is so fast that people are caught off guard.
"Little book, is it a little book?" an old woman walked out of the stairs, leaning on a cane and shouted.
Chen Shu followed the voice and looked over and found that it was his old neighbor who lived on the third floor. He smiled and greeted him, holding his arm: "Grandma Wang, it's me."
Grandma Wang recognized the little boy back then and narrowed her eyes with a smile: "Oh, you have grown so big! But I can still recognize you at a glance!"
"Grandma Wang has sharp eyes!"
"Have you been busy with work recently? Why haven't you come home? Do you all live in the workplace?" Grandma Wang kept nagging, her words full of concern.
Chen Shu responded with a smile and helped Grandma Wang upstairs.
When they were delivered to the door of Grandma Wang's house on the third floor, Grandma Wang seemed to suddenly think of something. She held Chen Shu's hand and said softly: "As long as the work is not busy, you should go home and see your parents more often. You
I don’t know how much your parents miss you. Every time we meet and chat for a while inside and outside the building, they never leave you, the son of a policeman, in their mouths."
Chen Shu felt guilty. He was busy with official duties but often forgot about his aging parents. The people needed the police, but the old man and his mother also needed a responsible son.
Before Grandma Wang entered the door, she turned around and warned: "You, in the future, do less dangerous things and pay more attention to safety! I met your mother several times and even said hello several times but she didn't respond. I saw her like that
I knew something must have happened to you..."
After saying that, he opened the door and walked into the house.
Chen Shu, who was ashamed, was left alone outside the door.
...
When he returned home, Chen Shu knocked on the door, as if he were a child coming home from school, and called "Mom".
After a while, the security door was opened from the inside, and Chen Ma smiled and took a pair of clean slippers from the shoe cabinet next to her and placed them on the floor.
"Come in quickly. Your dad is cooking in the kitchen. They are all your favorites. You can eat them right away."
After parents have lived for decades, they may forget many things and people in this life, but they cannot forget the dishes that their children love to eat.
Chen Shu sniffed hard and found that the aroma was really familiar. One of the dishes must be pig's trotters stewed in wine.
After so many years, the taste has not changed at all.
After entering the restaurant and sitting down, Chen Shu looked at the four dishes and one soup on the table, wondering how long it had been since he had visited his parents at home, and how long they had worried him during such a long period of time.
Mother Chen walked to Chen Shu, helped take off her son's coat, took it to the living room and put it on the clothes rack next to the sofa, and preached like she did when she was a child when eating: "Son, go wash your hands first."
"Okay!" Chen Shu agreed with great nostalgia.
By the time he returned to the restaurant after washing his hands, Chen's father had already opened two bottles of red wine: "Chen Shu, it's rare to come over today and have some wine with dad."
Chen Shu smiled and picked up one of the bottles and looked at it: "Dad, this is not a little wine. Well, 14% Argentinian red wine, very tasteful."
Father Chen first praised himself: "Whatever taste, it's cheap! Who doesn't know that the red wine in France and Italy is good, but your father and I can't afford it. Oh, by the way, don't waste this money on buying wine for me.
I know exactly how much salary you have in your pocket."
Chen Shu put down the red wine in his hand, as if he had gone back to the days when he was a child and always argued with his father when there was nothing wrong: "Dad, it depends on what you said! It's just a few bottles of wine, and I can still afford it for your son!"
"Can you afford it? Then you should pay off your mortgage first!" Although Father Chen's words were filled with disgust, the cheerful smile on his face could not be faked. qqxδnew
Father Chen poured the red wine into the decanter and asked casually: "Is the work busy lately?"
Chen's father has always been proud of being able to guide Chen Shu to the provincial police station when he was in his third year of high school. Therefore, Chen's father, who has a son who is a police officer, always asks his son about his job and work unit when he comes home.
The things above are unbreakable habits.
"It's okay, that's it. By the way, something interesting happened a few days ago. We picked up a half-year-old child during patrol, and took him for a physical examination as usual. Finally, I arranged for my colleagues to send the child to an orphanage.
At that time, by the way, it was the guy named Chen Chuan who was my classmate in the police academy."
Chen Shu spoke vividly. He knew that his parents liked to hear these things related to his work. So he often talked about related and interesting things, which also brought a little fun to his parents.
When Chen's mother heard that it was Chen Chuan, Chen Shu's good friend from the police academy, she didn't know what her brain circuit was like. The first thing she asked Chen Shu was about Chen Chuan's single status, and then she squinted her eyes and muttered something.
This elder likes to match others, and today Chen Shu also met him.
"Chen Chuan? I remember that he went to the city bureau when he was assigned after graduation, right? Why are you following you to the special police now?" Father Chen doesn't understand the organizational structure of the public security bureau, but for the city bureau, he is aloof from the grassroots level of the branch.
I still understand things.
Chen Shu explained the reason why Chen Chuan, who originally worked in the city bureau, was temporarily assigned to the branch's special police brigade this time. Seeing the devoted expressions of his parents and the joy of this small family of three getting together for a short time, he was quite happy.
happy.
Chen Shu continued to say with a smile: "Chen Chuan sent the child to the orphanage, but the institution said they wanted to name the child. This guy who was just a bastard thought it was troublesome, so he directly used my name, and he was very proud of it afterwards.
Tell me this name is auspicious!"
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading! Chen Shu was chatting about interesting things at work. He originally wanted to bring some joy to the family. Unexpectedly, Chen’s father and mother, who were also smiling and listening to Chen Shu’s words, suddenly heard Chen Shu’s words.
When they read the word "auspicious" at the end of the book, they suddenly fell silent.
The two old men looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes. They turned back to look at their son who was talking eloquently. They pretended to smile and responded.
Sometimes Father Chen secretly thought, would it have been safer if Chen Shu had gone to the Department of Archeology or the Military Academy as he wished?
The proud father shook his head. The matter has long since passed, and he should do what he needs to do now.
He pushed a bottle of red wine in front of the presentation and tried to drink away his worries: "Stop talking about work, let's sit down and have some wine first."
For so many years, Father Chen, who has always liked to listen to Chen Shu chatting about trivial matters in the work unit, today for the first time took the initiative to stop talking about work, which shocked Chen Shu, who had just started.
He was just a little curious and didn't think too much. He smiled bitterly and sat down: "Dad, we can't drink on working days. We can only drink on non-working holidays."
"Is there still such a rule?"
"That's the rule!"
Father Chen said angrily: "It's really not easy for you to be a policeman. If a man doesn't drink, his life will be in vain! Hey, one drink on the weekend is enough. At least you can drink two days a week...etc.
Wait, you're always working overtime, preparing for duty, etc., minus this, how many days can you drink in a year?"
Hearing that Chen's father was still worried about his drinking, Chen Shu was the one who really couldn't laugh or cry, but he was still prepared to cooperate with his father in a serious manner.
He stretched out his right hand and turned it over. He couldn't help but said with a smile: "The most miserable comrade in our branch has only had ten days of drinking since he started working after the Chinese New Year."
