Chapter 8 Back to Hometown (2)

Uncle Feng saw a person walking towards him in front of him, he squinted his eyes to identify it carefully, and when he saw clearly that it was Shen Xinyan, he was suddenly surprised and delighted, "Yanyan, it's you, I thought who it was."

Shen Xinyan was also surprised. Just now she was only walking and didn't notice Uncle Feng. When she heard the voice and looked carefully, she realized that the middle-aged man in front of her was Uncle Feng.

Shen Xinyan remembers that when she was a child, she often went to Uncle Feng's house for a meal, and Uncle Feng and his wife loved her very much.

"Uncle Feng, long time no see." Shen Xinyan walked up to Uncle Feng and said excitedly, "I haven't seen you for three years, you seem to have gained a little weight!"

Not seeing each other for three years, Uncle Feng is still so amiable.

Uncle Feng also laughed happily, patted Shen Xinyan's head, and looked at her with loving eyes, "You girl, you haven't come back for three years, I miss you with your Aunt Feng."

Shen Xinyan curled her lips, her face full of grievances, "Uncle Feng, I want to come back too, but I really can't come back, it's not like you don't know."

Regarding Shen Xinyan's family situation, Uncle Feng naturally knew about it. He sighed deeply and said, "Your father, I don't even know what to say about him. Hey, I really wronged you, son."

Uncle Feng hesitated to speak, Shen Xinyan also guessed what he meant, but smiled helplessly and didn't say any more.

The two have been neighbors for so many years, Uncle Feng is very aware of the situation of the Shen family, and sympathizes with Shen Xinyan very much.

"Uncle Feng, is my dad home yet?" Shen Xinyan asked.

"I saw him once a few days ago, but I haven't seen him in the past few days, and I don't know where he went."

Needless to say, my father must have gone to gamble again.Shen Xinyan had expected such a result. "The country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change." This is the truest portrayal of my father now.

My father was an honest man. He used to like playing mahjong and poker, but later, because of family accidents, he met some idlers and got into the bad habit of gambling.Later, the bigger the bet, the bigger the loss.But he was just stubborn, he didn't listen to persuasion at all, and he still stubbornly believed that he could win a lot of money, so that he was out of control now.

Seeing Shen Xinyan's exhausted expression, Uncle Feng said enthusiastically, "Your father is not at home, why don't you come to my house for dinner later?"

Shen Xinyan declined with a smile, "No, I still have something to do when I go home, let's go another day!"

"What's the matter? Is it too late to eat?"

"It's true, so I won't say much, I will definitely go to your house for dinner some other day." Shen Xinyan smiled and stuck out her tongue at Uncle Feng mischievously.

Uncle Feng laughed happily, "You girl, you are so old, why do you still look like a little girl?"

Uncle Feng stroked Shen Xinyan's head lovingly.Just such a small gesture made her feel warmer.

Uncle Feng is a primary school teacher and has taken good care of her since she was a child.She once thought that if her father could be like Uncle Feng, then she wouldn't be in such a mess.But in fact, many things never go smoothly.Therefore, she can only accept and rely on her unremitting efforts to slowly change the existing reality.

……

Shen Xinyan bid farewell to Uncle Feng and returned home.

As soon as the door was opened, a strong musty smell came out.

She fumbled to turn on the light, and was taken aback as soon as she saw the furnishings in the room.

Is this still the place where she grew up?How did it become like this?
