"Dad, Mom, my sister is back."

She was still eight feet away from her home, holding a big bag with great effort. Mi Xiaohui, who was walking at the front, shouted in front of her home like a magpie announcing good news.

"Oh, it's coming, it's coming."

Aunt Mi heard the sound and quickly opened the door.

After taking a look at the little daughter's back, it turns out that she is not bad.

I saw my eldest daughter Mi Xiaoran and my foreign son-in-law Zhao Hanyu, who had been away from home for several years, walking through the narrow passage and entering the hospital.

Mi Xiaoran wore a light yellow rice coat, and Zhao Hanyu wore a long down jacket.

The two of them looked decent and fashionable, wearing styles that were not available in the capital.

Aunt Mi's face turned red with excitement and she quickly greeted her.

"Hi, my daughter, you are back. This morning, your father and I have been uneasy. We can't wait and wait, and I'm so anxious."

Immediately afterwards, as soon as Mi Xiaohui took her bag and walked in, Master Mi also appeared at the door.

"Hey, my eldest daughter is really back."

When he saw Mi Xiaoran, he shouted happily.

"Look at you, you're so worried. You're not coming back now. Just come back. What's the matter? It's cold outside. Come in quickly."

"Mom, Dad, how are you all? I miss you so much."

Mi Xiaoran stepped forward and gave each of his parents a hug, and kissed them affectionately on the face.

Now she is used to the American way of saying hello.

But fortunately, after not seeing each other for so many years, relatives actually need such intimate gestures to express their longing for each other.

Although it is a bit unethical, it is not offensive.

As parents, Aunt Mi and Master Mi both had red eyes and completely ignored the existence of other people.

"Okay. Are you tired from the journey? Are you homesick?"

"Yes I do."

"Oh, Xiaoran, look at you, you look like you've grown taller."

"Where is it? Dad, you are talking nonsense."

It wasn't until Zhao Hanyu, who was following Mi Xiaoran, also called the two elders "Dad" and "Mom" that they realized that they had been careless and ignored their American son-in-law.

So the old couple hurriedly arranged their luggage for their son-in-law and daughter, then fetched hot water for them to wash their faces.

Zhao Hanyu looked at the basin of steaming water and was a little confused.

"Why do you have to wash your face? Is this a custom in the capital?"

Aunt Mi quickly explained, "It's very windy and sandy in the capital. If you don't wipe your face after going out, your face will be gray. So you wash your face first when you enter the house, and guests from far away are also asked to wash their faces."

Zhao Hanyu followed the local customs and took off his coat to wash it.

Unexpectedly, Mi Xiaoran stopped him, "We came back by car and it wasn't that dusty. This is an outdated habit. It's okay if you don't wash it off, but I won't wash it off. Otherwise, all the makeup on my face will be gone."

By the way, a bungalow in Beijing is no better than an apartment in New York. You might catch a cold if you wash it."

Zhao Hanyu then changed his mind again, "Then I won't wash it."

As a result, neither the young couple accepted the kindness of the old couple.

Instead, Mi Xiaohui brought a towel, made arrangements for Luo Guangliang to wash his face, and then took the initiative to bring out a basin of soapy water.

This made Aunt Mi feel a little unhappy.

I can't tell why I feel awkward.

Anyway, the old lady felt that her eldest daughter had gone abroad, and when she came back, she had lost half her life and became irrational.

But as the saying goes, it doesn’t cost anything.

Soon it was time to distribute the exotic gifts, and Aunt Mi's unhappiness disappeared.

"Hey, Guang Liang, please help me get those two boxes."

"Mom and Dad, I bought you American ginseng, a specialty of the United States. This rice cooker is very convenient for cooking, just plug it in. If you use this at home, mom will save trouble."

"And this microwave oven, you can just put leftovers in it for five minutes. Not only can it sterilize, but it can also roast sweet potatoes and pop popcorn."

"By the way, this sweater and scarf are also my mother's. The whiskey and Marlboro are my father's."

"Hey, Xiaohui, come here. I have brought you the most things. These clothes, jeans, these chocolates, chewing gum, potato chips, as well as this bag, this electronic watch, and these tapes are all bought for you.

Yes. There are also these sunglasses and this stuffed dog, specially chosen for you. Are you happy now?"

Needless to say, the young couple really brought back a lot of things.

Two big boxes, opened, full of all kinds of gifts.

This shows that Mi Xiaoran still misses her family very much.

But at this time, Luo Guangliang felt like an outsider.

It's a little strange to see a family so close and happy together.

So I quickly found a break to say goodbye.

"What, Master Mi, Aunt Mi, Xiaoran, I have delivered them to you safely, then I will go back."

Of course Master Mi can't let him go, he has to stay as a guest.

"Don't worry, sit down and drink some tea. We'll have lunch at home later, and I, Hanyu, and you will have some drinks together. You can also try some foreign wine."

"No, no, you will definitely have a lot to say when your whole family is reunited. I won't bother you."

Aunt Mi also felt uncomfortable, so she said that she had watched Luo Guangliang grow up and she should ask him to do something.

But where can anyone call someone for free?

"Where are you? It's all up to you to travel such a long way. How can you not eat? Besides. Guang Liang, you and Xiaoran also grew up together. What's the difference between you and your brothers and sisters? Why do you want to follow me?

My aunt is a heretic."

"No way, that's all. I can still be polite to you."

Luo Guangliang smiled kindly and said, "I really have something to do over there. To be honest, there are still some things in our house that have not been put away. I have to finish cleaning them up before you can use them."

"And after I finish it here, I still have to run a car and take these things to Uncle Kang to Weijia Hutong. If I drink, it will be inconvenient to drive. Shouldn't Wei Min come back too?

Well, it happened in the past two days, so I have to help Uncle Kang clean up over there."

"Don't worry, it's not easy for either Xiaoran or Weimin to come back. It's even more difficult for our hospital to have such a complete set of people. We have to join in the fun no matter what. Uncle Kang has already wanted to do this. This Chinese New Year is a great time

It's been several days. Are you still worried that I won't have a chance to drink your wine?"

As a result, Master Mi and Aunt Mi no longer kept anyone around, and both said, "Let's go slowly."

In the end, no one expected it to be Mi Xiaohui.

Just when Luo Guangliang was about to turn around and go out, the girl stopped him and actually stuffed one of Master Mi's two Marlboros into Luo Guangliang's arms.

"Brother Liangzi, take it and smoke it."

As a result, Master Mi and Aunt Mi certainly had nothing to say, and they both echoed, "Take it, take it."

Just like that, Luo Guangliang left with a cigarette.

But now that he was gone, Mi Xiaoran looked at Luo Guangliang and his sister with displeasure.

I don't know if it was because Luo Guangliang mentioned Ning Weimin that Mi Xiaoran became angry.

Or maybe it's because along the way, the two sisters didn't chat well and the frequency was a bit different.

Especially her sister's mouth in the car almost made Mi Xiaoran unable to get off the stage. At this time, Mi Xiaoran couldn't wait to find a place to get angry, thinking that he could use this incident to talk about his sister.

"I said, you girl, your hands are too big. Why do you just give away things from home so casually? I bought them for my dad."

Mi Xiaohui was stunned for a moment after being scolded and then argued with reason.

"Hey, you are the one who should pick you up, right? Can't we thank them?"

"I didn't say I shouldn't thank you, but it's better to just take two packs. Do you deserve to give me a whole pack? I only brought back two packs in total. Do you know how much this pack of cigarettes costs? Eighteen dollars."

My sister actually asked for money, which made Mi Xiaohui roll her eyes.

"No, sister, why are you so petty when you go out? This is about money."

However, her look also made Mi Xiaoran, who felt justified, even more angry.

"Why isn't this about money? You think your sister's money comes from the strong wind, while I earn it from babysitting children. I only earn five dollars an hour. Don't be a householder and don't know how expensive firewood and rice are."

"

"Look at what you said. If it were the other way around, do you know how much gas it would cost to run back and forth from the Capital Airport? If you want to make such a trip in a taxi in the capital, you would be able to earn two Marlboros. You

I thought I couldn’t afford it. I’m not short of money, so why go through such trouble? Besides, when you come back, there’s not enough room at home. In order to make your stay comfortable, Uncle Kang and Brother Liangzi took the initiative to free up the room for our family.

Well. Have you included the rent? You are so stingy."
