1974 年 09 月 13 日下午 14:00,阳光灿烂,大地沐浴在温暖的阳光下。
Lu Ming and the mayor of Jing City, B Province, embarked on a business trip to Fanyang County, W Province.
Before leaving, Lu Ming had communicated with his younger brother "Lu Chuan" and was surprised to find that the family compound where his younger brother lived was adjacent to the place where they were on a business trip.
Therefore, Grandpa Lu, Grandma Lu and other family members told him to bring a lot of things to his younger brother's family. Today, as soon as they arrived in Hai City, Lu Ming followed the mayor back to the guesthouse for a short rest, and then borrowed a vehicle from the fleet and drove to Wuyang County impatiently.
Lu Chuan stood at the door early in the morning, waiting anxiously. When he saw his brother's car slowly approaching, he was so excited that he could hardly control himself and hurried forward to greet him.
"Brother, you are finally here!" Lu Chuan shouted excitedly.
After Lu Ming got out of the car, he immediately hugged Lu Chuan tightly, and the deep brotherhood between the two was revealed. They felt each other's warmth and kindness, as if time had never separated them.
"My parents and grandparents asked me to bring you a lot of things, including some specialties from my hometown. Where are my brother, sister-in-law and the children?" Lu Ming said, pointing to the trunk of the car.
Lu Chuan replied with a smile: "Zhizhi, get out of class hasn't finished yet. The triplets just started school this year and are still attending school. I have to go to the school to pick up the children later."
Time always flies by inadvertently, and in a blink of an eye, the two of them have worked together to move all the items into the house.
Lu Chuan glanced at his watch and found that it was already late. It was time for him to go to school to pick up the triplets. So he turned around and asked his eldest brother Lu Ming: "Brother, how about we go to school together to pick up the kids?"
Lu Ming smiled and nodded in agreement. He stood up and walked out of the house with Lu Chuan.
The sun shines on their bodies, warm and comfortable, and the breeze blows on their faces, bringing a hint of coolness. The two brothers walk side by side, chatting as they walk.
Lu Ming smiled and said, "Is everything going well at home recently?"
Lu Chuan nodded: "Everything is fine, just a little busy."
Lu Ming asked again: "How are the children doing in school?"
Lu Chuan smiled and said, "They are all very obedient and study very hard."
As they were talking, the two came to the front of the car. Lu Chuan opened the door and let Lu Ming get in first. Then he sat in the driver's seat. The car started and drove towards the school.
Along the way, they continued to chat and share interesting stories in their family life.
Lu Chuan talked about some interesting things that happened to the children at school, and Lu Ming shared some of his work experiences. The car was filled with laughter and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
After a while, Lu Chuan looked at his watch and said, "Brother, I have to go to school to pick up the kids now. Do you want to go with me?"
Lu Ming smiled and replied, "Of course! I haven't seen the triplets for a long time. Yiran, your nephew, has been complaining at home about why his brothers and sisters haven't come back yet."
Lu Chuan nodded, and then continued: "Well, let's go. However, when the children are on vacation next time, I plan to take them back to Jing City to play. I'm really busy recently, and Zhizhi doesn't have much free time."
Lu Ming expressed his understanding and comforted her: "It's okay, come back when you are free, everything is fine at home, don't worry."
Lu Chuan stepped on the accelerator and the car quickly accelerated forward. Before long, they arrived at the school gate.
Qingshan Primary School is located on the edge of the city, with a quiet and pleasant surrounding environment.
The campus is shaded by green trees and lush flowers and plants, giving people a feeling of tranquility and peace.
Lu Chuan and his elder brother Lu Ming drove to Qingshan Primary School. The journey was not long and it only took about half an hour to arrive.
Due to the good road conditions, the journey was smooth and Lu Chuan was in a good mood. He chatted with his elder brother about some trivial matters from time to time.
Because the primary school usually ends at around 3:30 in the afternoon, they arrived at the school gate in advance. However, when they arrived, they found that the school gate was closed and there were not many parents waiting to pick up their children. This made Lu Chuan and his elder brother feel a little strange, as they thought there would be many parents waiting here early.
After Lu Chuan parked the car skillfully, he and his elder brother walked towards the school gate. At this time, there were not many people gathered at the school gate, only a few security guards stood guard at the school gate.
Seeing Lu Chuan and Lu Ming approaching, one of the security guards stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, are you here to pick up your children?"
Lu Chuan smiled and replied: "Yes, I am here to pick up the child."
The security guard glanced at his watch and explained, "It's still early. The children won't be out of school for a while. Why don't you go sit in the lounge next door or go for a walk nearby and come back when school is almost over."
Lu Chuan and his elder brother looked at each other and thought this was a good suggestion. So they decided to go around the area first and get to know the environment around the school.
They strolled along the school wall, admiring the surrounding scenery. Outside the school, there was a clear stream flowing by, with weeping willows and flowers planted beside the stream. The breeze blew, the willow branches swayed gently, and the fragrance of flowers filled the air. Not far away, there was an orchard, with fruit trees full of heavy fruits, making people salivate.
Lu Chuan and his elder brother walked and talked, enjoying this moment of peace. They talked about work, family, and the growth of their children, sharing each other's daily life. Unconsciously, time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was almost time to go home from school.
Lu Chuan looked at his phone and said to his eldest brother, "It's almost time to go back to the school gate. The kids will probably be out soon."
The two turned around and went back to the school gate. Sure enough, many parents had already arrived and the school gate gradually became lively. Lu Chuan and his eldest brother found a suitable position and waited for the children to appear.
However, considering that it was still early for school to end, they speculated that perhaps the parents had not yet arrived at the school to pick up their children, so they decided to wait patiently.
Lu Chuan and Lu Ming are similar in stature, but their styles are very different. Lu Ming wears a pair of black-framed glasses, which makes him look gentle and refined. He exudes a bookish air, which makes people feel gentle and friendly. In contrast, Lu Chuan does not wear glasses, and looks more calm and reserved, giving people a steady and reliable impression. At this moment, the two stood quietly at the school gate, waiting silently.
Soon, the crisp bell for the end of get out of class rang suddenly, breaking the tranquility of the campus like a cheerful bird. Then, groups of students carrying heavy schoolbags poured out of the campus like a tide, walking towards the school gate with brisk steps. Their faces were filled with innocent smiles, full of energy and vigor.
At this moment, three small figures came out of the school gate. They were the triplets of the Lu family. Their eyes were very sharp. They saw Lu Ming and Lu Chuan at a glance, and immediately showed surprise on their faces. They ran over with their short legs, shouting in unison: "Dad, uncle!"
Lu Ming looked at the three identical little faces in front of him, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He reached out and touched the children's heads, his eyes full of love, and asked softly: "Were you good in school today? Did you listen to the teacher?" His tone was soft and gentle, full of care and concern, as if he was asking about the most precious treasure in the world.
"We are so good!" the three little ones answered in a rush, "The teacher even praised us today!"
"Really? That's great." Lu Ming laughed and turned to look at Lu Chuan. "It must be very hard for your sister-in-law to take care of three children every day. Your sister-in-law is so tired taking care of one child that she sometimes has to ask her mother to come over to help."
"Haha, yes, but Zhizhi said she didn't find it hard at all, on the contrary, she enjoyed it." Lu Chuan replied with a smile, "After all, she has always wanted a child, and now she has three at once, she couldn't be happier."
Because the triplets bring me more joy than tiredness. "Lu Chuan smiled, thinking of the process of his wife taking care of the children, half happy and half sad, the sad part is ~ "But sometimes Zhizhi is too busy, and I'm not at home, she will be at a loss. Once, all three triplets had a fever, and she was alone at home, feeding the children antipyretics and nursing them for a while before they got better."
As they were talking, Bai Zhizhi also walked out of the school. When she saw Lu Ming, she showed a surprised smile on her face: "Brother, when did you come? Why didn't you tell me in advance!"
Lu Ming smiled and replied, "I also decided to come and see you at the last minute, so I didn't have time to inform you." He handed over the gifts he brought with him, "Here are some things I brought for you, I hope you like them."
Bai Zhizhi happily accepted the gift, with gratitude gleaming in her eyes: "Thank you, brother. We are so happy that you came and brought so many things."
At this time, Lu Chuan walked up, patted Lu Ming on the shoulder, and said, "Okay, don't stand here and chat, let's go home quickly."
So, the group walked towards home, talking and laughing. As the sun set, the golden afterglow sprinkled on them, stretching their shadows out like a beautiful painting.
After arriving home, Bai Zhizhi immediately went into the kitchen to prepare dinner. The aroma coming from the kitchen made people salivate. Lu Ming walked into the kitchen and looked at the busy Bai Zhizhi, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He recalled that when he was a child, he also watched his mother busy in the kitchen. At that time, he always waited expectantly for the delicious meals to be served. Now, time has passed, and he has grown up, but his attachment to home has never changed.
Lu Chuan and Bai Zhizhi worked in harmony in the kitchen, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, and cooking. Everything seemed so natural and harmonious. Soon, a sumptuous dinner was ready. The table was filled with delicious dishes, exuding an alluring aroma.
The whole family sat together and enjoyed this warm dinner.
"Come and try your brother and sister-in-law's cooking." Lu Chuan greeted his family warmly.
The family sat around the dinner table, eating and chatting. The atmosphere was very warm and harmonious. The dishes made by Bai Zhizhi were delicious and each one was mouth-watering.
The whole family (three adults and three children) enjoyed the food and praised her cooking skills. Seeing her family enjoying the meal, Bai Zhizhi's face was also filled with a happy smile.
After dinner, Lu Ming and Lu Chuan came to the living room and continued chatting. Lu Ming asked his brother about the recent situation at home and his own physical condition. Lu Chuan told him that everything was fine and told him not to worry. The two also began to talk about interesting things in work and life, and laughed constantly.
"Brother, are you busy with your work in Province B?" Lu Chuan asked with concern.
"It's okay, I just have a lot of things to do. But I'm very happy to see you this time." Lu Ming replied with a smile.
"We are also very happy that you are here. Please come back often when you are free." Lu Chuan said.
The two brothers chatted about many daily topics and shared each other's lives. They recalled the time when they played together as children and were filled with emotion.
Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, it was late at night. Finally, they went back to their rooms to rest, looking forward to meeting again tomorrow.
Lu Ming slept particularly soundly that night. He knew that no matter where he went, this warm home would always be here waiting for him.
The next morning, Lu Ming had to get up just after dawn because he had to rush back to the guesthouse to meet someone.
Although he wanted to sleep a little longer, he still forced himself to get up when he thought of the important person he was going to meet. After a quick wash, he put on neat clothes and prepared to leave.
When he opened the door, he found that Lu Chuan had already gotten up and was busy in the living room. Seeing his brother coming out, Lu Chuan hurriedly went to greet him: "Brother, are you leaving so early? Won't you stay a few more days?"
Lu Ming smiled helplessly: "I can't help it. I have something important to deal with. I will come back to see you next time I have time."
Lu Chuan nodded to show his understanding. Then he helped his brother pack his luggage and sent him out.
"Brother, be careful on the road and call home if you need anything." Lu Chuan advised.
Lu Ming patted his brother's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of myself. You too, work hard and don't get too tired."
After saying that, Lu Ming slowly turned around and set out on his way back. He walked very slowly with every step, as if he was dragging a heavy chain under his feet, and his mood was extremely complicated.
Although he felt very reluctant, he also understood that the affection between family members would not diminish due to distance, and he looked forward to the next time he would reunite with his family.
Despite this, he still felt that time passed too quickly, as if he had just seen his family and in the blink of an eye he had to leave again. He didn't even have time to enjoy the time with his brother's family before he had to leave in a hurry.
"I'll come to see you next time I have the chance." Lu Ming said to his brother and sister-in-law with some reluctance. He knew that after leaving this time, he didn't know when he would be able to come back here and reunite with them again.
Lu Chuan had already packed up the specialties that his wife had carefully prepared, ready for his eldest brother to take back. As he sent his eldest brother to the door, he reminded him: "Be careful on the road, and remember to call me if anything happens." His eyes revealed deep concern, as if telling his eldest brother that no matter where or when, home would always be his safe haven.
Lu Ming took the specialty and nodded, saying that he would be careful. Then, he gently hugged his brother and drove away. Looking at his brother's car going farther and farther away, Lu Chuan was filled with emotion.
He knew that life was always full of helplessness, but as long as a family's hearts were closely connected, they could feel each other's warmth no matter how far apart they were.
