i'm really rich

Chapter 129 Mom, here I come. (happy New Year)

"I'll just ask." He Yuan smiled.

"By the way, New Year's Day is coming soon, how are you spending New Year's Day?" Tian Rui asked.

After being reminded by Tian Rui, He Yuan suddenly realized that the Chinese New Year is coming soon.

Since I didn't go to work, I no longer have to count the days on my fingers, and my life is a bit muddled.

I often forget what day of the week it is.

"How did you all live before?" He Yuan couldn't figure it out, so he asked Tian Rui.

"I don't know, I live like that every year. We have a dinner, sing K, and play mahjong together at night. That's basically it. By the way, what about you?" Tian Rui tilted her head and recalled, counting in detail After finishing, he threw the question to He Yuan again.

"I... usually sleep at home, and then go out for dinner with friends at night." He Yuan scratched his face.

"nothing else?"

"Sometimes my friends would invite me out to sing K, have a drink or something, but I think it's too far away, so I usually don't go there very often." He Yuan said truthfully.

When he first went to BJ, he was still young, and his friend asked him to sing, so he went.

In the next few years, he felt that it was not interesting. In winter, it was cold, and they sang late, often ending at one or two o'clock in the morning. Taking a taxi was a lot of money, and it was not worthwhile.

The most important thing is that He Yuan is really sleepy, the kind that he can't even open his eyes.

Might as well catch up on sleep at home.

"Then how do you plan to live this year?" Tian Rui asked.

He Yuan thought for a while, but he didn't have any good ideas, so he hesitated and said, "Should it be... as usual?"

In He Yuan's mind, the festival is just to find a reason to reward yourself.Or there are multiple excuses to get tired of being with the person you like.

Have a meal together, sing a song together, and go shopping together.

These things that can be done together usually have a sense of ritual inexplicably on holidays.

"It's so pitiful, why don't you go to my house this year." Tian Rui said casually.

He Yuan noticed that although Tian Rui lowered her head, her ears stood up like a rabbit.

It turned out to be waiting here.

Do the math, anyway, if you go early or late, you have to go, and if you die early or late, you will die.

Die early and live early.

He Yuan pretended to think for a while, and then said: "Okay."

"Anyway, you are quite lonely by yourself, so I will take you in with great mercy. You... wait, what did you say?" Tian Rui said to herself, and when she heard He Yuan's answer, she suddenly jumped Leng.

"I said, okay." He Yuan repeated again.

Tian Rui came back to her senses, realized her gaffe, and coughed quickly.

"Well, ah, that, that's pretty good, then you can spend this New Year's Day with us, haha, haha." Tian Rui laughed awkwardly there.

He Yuan changed the topic in due course.

Otherwise, after a while, the eldest lady would become angry from embarrassment, and would start venting her anger at him again.

Because he had to go to the morning shift tomorrow, He Yuan sent her back after eating supper.

When getting off the car, Tian Rui specially reminded her: "I remember what you said."

After finishing speaking, Tian Rui closed the car door, hummed a song, and hopped into the community.

"Wait, I haven't got the cat yet." He Yuan stopped her in the car.

Tian Rui's brisk body suddenly stopped.

She turned around and ran back, sticking out her tongue towards He Yuan.

"That's right, you still have to take the cat, I almost forgot about it."

He Yuan followed Tian Rui upstairs and put the little guy in a pet bag.

I haven't seen you for half a month, and the little guy seems to have grown up a lot, almost into a ball.

It is not very safe in the pet bag, shaking here and there, making a "meow" sound from time to time.

After He Yuan bid farewell to Tian Rui, he lifted the little guy down, put him in the car, and drove home.

As soon as he returned to the old house, He Yuan released the little guy.

The little guy crawled out of the bag little by little, walking carefully, sniffing around.

After a few minutes, the little guy was almost familiar with the surroundings, and immediately started having fun.After running around the living room a few times, I caught a mouse toy and started playing.

He Yuan looked at the little guy's crazy appearance with a smile on his lips.

Looking at it, He Yuan suddenly felt a ray of loneliness in his heart, and his smile gradually faded away.

He sat down on the chair by the door, looked at the dark green turf, and was in a daze.

It's New Year's Eve.

Another year has passed.

Inexplicably, He Yuan felt a void in his heart.

It's like being in a bustling commercial center, surrounded by bustling people.

But I stood on the side, watching everyone reveling there alone.

It's been a few years, and He Yuan can't remember clearly.

It seems that since a long time ago, He Yuan could no longer find the joy of celebration.

He Yuanfa was stunned for a while, then came to his senses and remembered something.

He took out his cell phone, opened the phone book, and turned to a phone number.

Looking at the number, He Yuan hesitated for a long time, and finally pressed it.

"Hello, ma'am?"

"I want to know, where is my mother..."

……

It was raining lightly.

On a rainy day in winter, the whole sky is gray, and even the mood becomes a little depressing.

He Yuan was holding an umbrella, walking on the stone brick floor, with a stern expression on his face.

He seldom has this expression, usually he is smiling, with a warm smile.

He Yuan found the location of the tombstone according to the address on the phone.

I don't know how long it has been since the tombstone was cleaned. Weeds are growing around it, almost covering the tombstone.

He Yuan put away the umbrella, fine raindrops fell on him unscrupulously, wet his hair and clothes.

He didn't bring any tools, so he bent down and began to clean up the surrounding weeds with his hands.

The rain fell on the lens and wet He Yuan's glasses, making his vision blurry.He Yuan stood up from time to time, took off his glasses, wiped them with his sleeves, and then put them back on.

It took a long time for He Yuan to clean up all the weeds around the tombstone.He cleaned it very carefully, even pulling out the roots of the grass in the mud and throwing it to the side of the open space.

After doing this, He Yuan was tired and out of breath.He sat on the stone brick, took a few breaths, and took out something from the bag beside him.

It was a stack of talisman papers, a small red candle, and a small bottle of white wine.

He Yuan took off the plastic bag wrapped in the talisman paper, spread it on the stone floor, and knelt on the plastic bag.

Inserting the candle in front of the tombstone, He Yuan took out the lighter and lit the candle.

After doing this, He Yuan knelt back again, staring at the tombstone in a daze.

The familiar name is engraved on the tombstone, and there is also a black and white photo with a sweet smile.

It should be found in the photo album.

He Yuan stretched out his hand, brushed his fingertips across the tombstone, and then slowly retracted it.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I'm here." He Yuan said, his voice a little dry.

More than ten years.

My mother has been dead for more than ten years.

He Yuan couldn't even remember how long she had been away.

13 years? 14 years?
Or... 15 years?

He Yuan can't remember clearly, and he doesn't want to remember clearly.

Many times I woke up from the dream, feeling that my mother just went to a distant place.

She seems to have just been out for a while.

and did not leave.

"Sorry, I only came to see you at this time."

He Yuan sat down on the ground, regardless of the muddy ground, soiled his pants.

"I have so many things I want to tell you, but now I don't know where to start."

"I have always felt that you just went out, you just went to play again. I used to dream that you were watching TV at home while directing me to sweep the floor. I dreamed that you came back from the outside and brought me another A lot of extracurricular books, you bought me "Goosebumps" and "Harry Potter". , you ran and ran ahead, waving at me while running, but I couldn't catch up with you."

"I also dreamed that I was playing legend at that time, and I asked you to act like a baby and asked for a game card. You told me on the phone, okay, buy it for me when you come back."

"You liar, you big liar."

He Yuan was talking to himself, but the tears couldn't stop flowing down.

"Now I seldom dream of you. Every day when I go home, I am very tired. I lie on the bed and fall asleep. Sometimes I dream, and I also dream of various data and tables."

"You know, I went to BJ and worked there for several years. You told me that I should go to BJ in the future, go to a good university, and find a decent job after I come out. I'm sorry, I didn't get into a good university, but I found a decent job."

"You know, BJ's life was really tiring. I was so poor at the time. I owed a lot of debt every month. I often had to eat instant noodles. I almost ran to live in the basement because I couldn't pay the rent. But I gritted my teeth and persisted because you said that you don't want to see me fail."

"It's like fighting when I was young. My dad told me not to fight with others. And you told me, don't come back if you lose. Don't cry even if you break a tooth, you have to swallow it in your stomach."

"You used to laugh at me all the time, saying that I couldn't even catch a girl. You also told me that chasing girls should be generous and not stingy; you should work hard to make money and don't let the women who follow me suffer; Girls who are a little bit better, don't look for girls who are too beautiful, because girls who are too beautiful have too many things to do, which is troublesome."

"I have done it, I have done it all, I have worked very hard, I have worked very hard. I dare not fall in love, I am afraid that I will not be able to give others a future. I did not find someone who is too beautiful. Now this one has a good personality, heartless, carefree , not the kind of troublesome person, you must like it very much."

"Actually, I've been wanting to see you for a few years, but when I asked my dad, he said he didn't know. I didn't dare to ask my aunt, for fear that I would lose face if I didn't do well."

"Now I have a car, a house, a cat, and a girlfriend. Oh, by the way, I have to go there on New Year's Day to meet her parents. If there are no accidents, our relationship will be confirmed."

"I finally dare to come to see you."

He Yuan's voice gradually became low.

"I really miss you……"
