    The next morning, the old Li family got up early.

Osmanthus cut a piece of pork belly, fried a large bowl of meat sauce for Mingdong,

put it in a canning jar, and steamed it yesterday afternoon.

A good cake is wrapped in a clean furoshiki.

    After breakfast, Mrs. Li took a puff of cigarettes and instructed Ming Dong:

"When you arrive in Bingcheng, remember to write letters home from time to time, and go to your fourth uncle if you have any business,

if he doesn't care Come back and tell me, I'll kill him with a cigarette and a pot."

    Ming Dong couldn't help laughing, he stood in front of Mrs. Li, his body was slightly thin and straight:

"Damn, I'm an adult, there are teachers and classmates in the school, can I What's the big deal?

Besides, if something really happens, there's still milk at home, and I'll write a letter and ask the milk to advise me."

    "Okay!" Mrs. Li was smoking a cigarette bag and grinning happily:

"My eldest grandson is also an adult, and you should learn to make your own decisions in the future."

With red-eyed sweet-scented osmanthus, Mrs. Li got off the kang and put on her shoes to go out:

"Okay, I'll go see Zhen Zhen, you two should talk too, don't delay catching the train."

    Ming Dong glanced at Mrs. Li's figure disappearing at the door, then turned to look at Osmanthus standing in front of him, a complex emotion flashed on his face:

"Today, you will be at home after you go home. Stay a few more days, it's rare to go back twice a year."

    A hint of shyness flashed on Osmanthus' face, she touched the braided braid hanging on her chest, lowered her head and said softly,

"Just go home and have a look, and you can't stay too long. I can't be missing."

    "Actually, if you want to go home, you can tell me."

Li Mingdong looked at her with a hint of urgency:

"Now is not the time ten years ago, you can go home at any time. ."

    It seems that she didn't understand what Li Mingdong said, Osmanthus still maintained a shy attitude, and a touch of pink flew on her face:

"But this is my home, I was married when I was a child.

Isn't that right?"
She looked up at Ming Dong, her eyes full of admiration:

"Brother Ming Dong, don't worry, go to study,
I will take care of you at home,
I will wait for you to come home."

    In such a conservative age, Osmanthus’ words were warm and straightforward, Ming Dong

involuntarily took two steps back, a bit of fear on his face,

he looked at Osmanthus but didn’t know what to say How to reply, under the silence, my throat feels dry and a little hot, and I can't help swallowing.
