Back to 80: My literary life.

Chapter 387 And the past will become a fond memory

Song Tangtang stayed at the school for one night and left in a hurry early the next morning.

He said that he would try to finish the work today and take the train back to Xijing in the evening. There were two babies at home, and he didn't like drinking milk powder very much, so he wanted to drink her milk.

Time passed very quickly, and it was already July 30th. The four-month Lu Academy workshop courses were all over. All students left the school and returned to their hometowns.

Before leaving, the students in the workshop had a special dinner together and invited substitute teachers including Fang Minghua to attend.

At the wine table, the students frequently toasted to Fang Minghua. This time, Fang Minghua also let go. He did not reject anyone who came and returned drunk.

However, one member of the workshop was missing, Li Hongying did not come.

Li Hongying was the first to leave Luyuan. She quietly left with her luggage last night without telling anyone.

At this time, she was already sitting on the train bound for Shanghai, and she had already signed up for the writer class of the Chinese Department of Fudan University.

After almost a day of driving, the train finally arrived in Shanghai.

I rushed to Xijing in the afternoon of the next day and went straight to my parents' house. I knocked on the door and went in. I saw my father Fang Changhe playing with his grandson in the living room.

Li Hongying didn't know where to go.

Seeing Fang Minghua come in, Fang Changhe immediately said: "Lele, your father is back."

As Pushkin wrote in his poem:
Everything is fleeting,
Everything will pass,
And the past will become a fond memory.
Thinking of this, Li Hongying brushed her hair that was messed up by the night wind, squeezed into a bus, and disappeared into the city night.

Since Fang Minghua wanted the twins, Fang Changhe reluctantly gave up his fishing habit of more than ten years and took care of the children with his wife every day.

But she didn't feel scared. She had been wandering outside for several years and walked through many cities. She was already used to this kind of life.

The lanterns are on.

Li Hongying got off the train with her travel bag, followed the crowd out of the station, and stood on the side of the road looking at the busy traffic on the street.

The child was sitting on the mat in the living room, wearing a red bellyband and holding a rattle in his hand, blinking at this "stranger" with his big eyes.

I still have some savings and don't have to worry about my livelihood for the time being. During this time, I will study hard and try to get into Fudan's writer class.

First, find a cheap hotel to stay in. You can't stay near the station because it's too messy. It's best to stay in a guest house run by a large state-owned factory or a university, where the environment is clean and the price is affordable.

just
Let it all go.

The train slowed down and blew its flute, slowly passing through the residential area. There were low bungalows on both sides, and pedestrians were passing by the tracks. They were so calm when they saw the train coming.

Perhaps, she would occasionally think of her days in Luyuan and the face that once fascinated her.

This is a city even more prosperous and developed than Yanjing.

Fang Minghua left school after the party the next day and asked a few classmates to help transport the computer printer back to Xijing. Then he met two elderly people at the General Political Courtyard, had a meal and went straight to the train station, returning home as fast as he could.

At that time, you will meet another group of like-minded students and knowledgeable teachers, and everything that happened in Luyuan will gradually become history and memories.

"What? You don't know dad anymore?" Fang Minghua put down his travel bag and immediately picked up his son without even bothering to wipe away his sweat.

"Come on, tell daddy to take a look at your real daddy." He said and put his face close to her.

As a result, the child said "Wow" and was frightened to tears.

"Give it to me." At this time, Fang Changhe hurriedly took the child: "We haven't seen you for a few months, and the child doesn't know you anymore." Indeed.

I was three months old when I left, and now I am seven months old. It seems that I will be closer to my children in the future.

At this time, my mother Zhang Fenglan walked out of the kitchen. Of course she was very happy to see her son back: "You are finally back. Hey, why didn't you turn black?"

"Mom, I'm taking classes in Luyuan and I'm not working in the fields. How can I get tanned?" Fang Minghua said with a smile, "Where's Ruirui? At my mother-in-law's house?"

"Yes, your mother-in-law is very rare. She is her granddaughter, but not her granddaughter." Zhang Fenglan muttered.

It turned out that two months ago, Song Tangtang had to go to work after taking maternity leave, and the two elders discussed taking care of the child. Song Tangtang's mother, Zhou Yunjuan, proposed to take her granddaughter Ruirui back to her home to take care of her.

The reason is very simple. Tangtang has to go to work, and Minghua is teaching in Yanjing. The two children cannot be taken care of by your two in-laws alone.

Instead of hiring a nanny, it would be better to bring one of them to my home to take care of her. Anyway, I have retired and have nothing to do at home.

Zhang Fenglan was a little reluctant to part with her grandchildren, but what Zhou Yunjuan said was true, and there was a local saying that the twins could be raised separately, so she agreed.

It's just a pain for Song Tangtang. The boy and girl are both his own babies, and maternal love needs to be shared by rain and dew, so he might as well stay at his mother-in-law's house for one day and his parents' house for one day. Anyway, they are both very close.

Fang Minghua told him Song Tangtang on the phone, so he naturally had no objection.

Now that I heard my mother's sour tone, I didn't say anything and casually changed the subject: "Where's my sister?"

"I'm at work. I usually don't come back until after six o'clock."

My younger sister Fang Mingli graduated from the Computer Science Department of NPU in July this year. She could have stayed in school to teach, but she insisted on entering a graduate school, and was eventually assigned to the 631th Institute of the Aviation System. Her work location is in Beilin Qu, which is not too far from home. Yuan takes the bus back every night.

In this case, Fang Minghua returned to his bedroom, changed his clothes and put on a vest and shorts, and then put out many fun and delicious foods from his travel bag.

Why don't you bring some gifts for your son and daughter when you come back from Yanjing?
Fang Minghua took out a lot of building blocks, small rubber balls, little bouncing frogs, and cars that immediately attracted the little guy's attention, and he quickly "accepted" this somewhat strange father.

At around six o'clock, Song Tangtang and Fang Mingli came back from get off work one after another, and the room suddenly became lively.

What he ate was the fried noodles that Fang Minghua liked. While eating, he asked his sister Fang Mingli about her work. Her sister said that the 631 Institute was a professional scientific research institution engaged in the development of airborne and missile-borne computers and aviation software. She was assigned to work in the institute. The system computer room is very professional.

"What are you studying specifically?" Fang Minghua asked curiously.

"Keep it secret!"

His sister's words immediately shut up Fang Minghua.

Well, don’t ask.

After dinner, Song Tangtang and Fang Mingli helped their mother wash the dishes, then took their son to their father-in-law and mother-in-law's house to visit their daughter.

The two families were not far apart, so they didn't drive. Fang Minghua held his son in his arms, and Song Tangtang carried the food and toys that her husband bought for their daughter. The two of them happily walked towards Houzaimen.

Song Tangtang's parents still lived in the military compound. The two went into the small courtyard at the back and saw a beautiful girl wearing denim shorts playing in the yard with a baby in her arms.

The girl saw them coming in and greeted them with a smile.

"Brother-in-law, you are back."

It's Li Li
