At the beginning of the year, most families gather around a bowl of rice, laugh and talk about what happened, or discuss where to go this New Year. All year long, everyone wants to go back to their home, snuggle into their parents' arms and cuddle, whether they are young or grown-up, everyone looks forward to that source of warmth.
But there are also a lot of people who don't like going home on Tet. Maybe like Dong Khanh, his family is not happy, looking at each other's faces creates more boredom. Arbitrarily looking for a place to relax, or whatever Tet is on the shelf, plugging your head into work to get through the day. Or there are a lot of people who don't have a home to go back to.
Like the people here, everyone gathers together to create a big home.
The garden is very large, on the right is a large airy apricot garden. The golden color of the branches of apricot trees is full of flowers, and the yellow apricot flowers carry a scent that no other species can replace, gentle and elegant. Laying in the wind, the apricot wings flutter like spring butterflies fluttering in the air, it bends a soft circle and then lands on the water in the nearby lake. A few fishes are sticking their heads on the petals, gently rippling the water, shaking the quiet lotus flowers lying nearby.
In the apricot forest, there are a lot of people, everyone is full of food under the apricot trees. They ignore men and women, talk to each other, make fun of each other, or play cards, and just stick their heads in to eat. Those young people saw people coming and laughed, some stood up and laughed and shouted:
"Hey, I saw another person back then, where is it?"
Canh Yen knew he was referring to Dong Khanh, smiled, sat down next to him, and said: "Go home for a while, come and introduce me later."
The people sitting next to him heard him say that and laughed haha, there was a guy who put a beer glass in front of him and said: "Have a drink with your brother. The whole year has been abroad, remember you want to die."
"We just met a few months ago, drink it, I won't." Quickly pushing the beer glass, he saw a bottle of apple juice and quickly poured himself a glass.
The guy saw that and frowned, but didn't say anything. There was a woman who suddenly discovered something, with a very surprised face asked: "Wow kid, why do you have a big belly like a pregnant woman?"
Hearing that, many people rushed to ask, Binh An sitting next to him knew the story but ignored it. He gave him a look, he didn't have much to do with other people, but if he didn't want to continue talking about this, he would find a way to forget it. Canh Yen did not think about such things, heard those people ask and laughed, without fear, puffed up his stomach and replied:
"Five months, June will be born."
Hearing that, dozens of people took a deep breath, some even put their hands on their ears to try to see if they were listening to something. Looking at him with wide eyes, trying to see if he would laugh, but Canh Yen calmly made everyone close their heads and whisper to each other.
Some young man said: "I heard about this in the newspaper, is it true?"
Some girl also contributed to the fun: "Really, what a lie, I heard that Titi was born by his wife's love for Mr. Phuong. At that time, An Binh personally delivered the baby."
Another young man shouted: "Mom, where is An Binh, then ask him. This world is getting weirder and weirder, who will give me a flying saucer to go back to my world, I'm afraid."
One said the other contributed to making the story more and more lively. There are a few people who are moved to discuss the structure of things and the reason why there is such a thing, some even call the research department to ask if there is a uterus inside such people, and then ask to see where the baby will live, all kinds of things.
There's a commotion over there, Canh Yen doesn't have time to care, he just informs everyone, and explains something. Binh An sat next to him and quietly put a piece of roast meat, looked at him a bit gloomy and asked:
"Where's An Binh?"
"Follow uncle Diep, I don't know when I'll be back."
Nodding as if you understand, Bang An Binh and Bang Binh An are twins, An Binh is a brother, and Binh An is the younger brother. Both of them are adopted children of Lam Bang, at that time heard that something had happened, so they adopted them as children, then gave them the surname Bang of his grandmother's family.
From the outside, the two people look like eight parts of the same face, but the charisma and physique are completely different. A Binh is calmer as if he didn't pay attention, and immediately mixed in the air. Also because of the quiet, the temperament is very calm like the clouds in the sky, plus a beautiful face, a rare beauty. He is the personal doctor of the three 'animal' brothers of the Nhim family, from a young age because of his weak health, he followed Uncle Diep to study, a great doctor.
And Binh An is different, much taller than An Binh in appearance, more liberal in personality, and his effective junior. If Nhim neglects his work because of his passion for the scent of his beloved, Binh An will take the lead. This guy is very good, has a very clear 'repentance, revenge, revenge, which he has seen so he believes.
These two brothers have problems, Canh Yen of course realizes the love Binh An's intentions were directed to his brother, but the other person did not know if it was because he was worried about the brotherhood, or because he was too indifferent to know.
In general, about this brother's love transmission, he has no opinion, but in life, he only has one promise, who knows if he will meet in the next life, just love regardless of everything. Don't do things you'll regret for the rest of your life.
Just talking, it's already past noon, Canh Yen happily receives lucky money from her aunts and uncles, each giving a little preparation for the baby in the future. Not only that but many people still have the spare breath to make a show of crying and screaming why a baby abandons their sincere heart. Canh Yen laughs and claps his hands and loves to see people act so well.
Lam Bang looked at the children playing happily and laughed, thinking about when his son would "leave home for his son" when he would let him hold his grandchild. I heard that the other two children plan to have children in five or six years, but hey, old people all want to have grandchildren.
What did he think to get over his life partner, Hoang Nguyen saw someone else's longing face for grandchildren and could only smile, put his arms around him, and asked: "The two children don't want to give birth, or should we have more children? Another girl."
Lam Bang glared: "If you raise five children, you want to be crazy, then you want more."
Hoang Nguyen smiled satisfied and kissed someone else's cheek: "If you want more, we should go tomorrow, okay." He didn't care that he was old and had a few children calling his grandfather all kinds of things, but he still rubbed his head on the nape of his partner's neck and coaxed him.
The children sitting on the other side, biting melon seeds, looked at the two grandfathers, or our grandfather was performing a "deep love" show, yawning a bit, they didn't want to watch it even after watching it. Plucking their heads together to tell stories of the four directions of heaven, laughing hi hi ha ha ha um heaven.
Play and play naughty, really, by the time Dong Khanh arrived, it was almost late afternoon. Canh Yen looked at his face was not very happy, did not mean to ask how he met his parents when he saw that he did not want to tell. Drag him in to get acquainted with the rioting brothers inside. After all, those crazy people are all-powerful people with unlimited money, he has a good relationship, of course, this business is more convenient.
His siblings all grew up with him, so when he looked at him, they all looked like "mother-in-law looking at daughter-in-law's eyes". And this 'daughter-in-law' is also quite satisfied, talking politely for a while, evaluating each other, and making all kinds of promises. Dong Khanh is a businessman who knows how to deal with such people, but those old foxes are not so simple, if they don't make it difficult, they will make it easy for him. Standing outside listening to him was also annoyed.
Pulling him away, he glared at the madman, angrily said: "What do these old people like to cause trouble?"
A few people heard that and laughed: "What, just said a few sentences, what's the matter?"
Canh Yen pulled him away, didn't even look at them again: "Huh, hate it, don't talk anymore, come back."
"Hey, don't stay and play, come back soon."
Without saying more, he pulled him to greet the adult and went straight to the car. When Dong Khanh saw him like that, he couldn't help but smile, and gently kissed him on the cheek, making so many frustrations in his body fly away with the wind. Canh Yen closed her eyes and opened her eyes to let him kiss her, the corner of her lips pulled up a curved line, leaning back to prepare to go home.
The road from here to home is not too far, only about half an hour. Dong Khanh is an honest person, he didn't need to ask him in the car, he opened his mouth to tell the story when he got home.
It turned out that he had not seen his parents for a long time, the day his mother met him and asked him to come home for Tet, he thought the same, but who would have thought that his father took him home and taught him a few things. After all, it is a father, teaching his children of course he has no opinion, but today he suddenly heard his father mention a very funny thing, and even now he still wants to laugh.
To put it bluntly, his father is an extremely miserable guy, and his mother is a greedy person. In the past, his father married his mother because of love, his mother used to be a famous lady who was pursued by people. How much effort to get married, but when she was pregnant he cheated with another woman. Of course, how could he escape his mother's eyes and ears, conflicts occurred, and the two were cold. His father still hangs out with that woman, his mother is disgusted but can't give up this fortune, so on the face of it, of course when she lives in this house, she can still brag with her friends. already.
It's just that he wasn't born for many months when his mother kicked him aside so that the nanny could not receive his mother's love. That aside, he heard today that his father and that woman had a son, a few years younger than him, whose name he didn't pay attention to. He meant to put that bastard in the company he worked for, no need for a high position but just good treatment is enough.
"That's right, darling." Canh Yen heard that and burst into laughter, what did he hate the most who had a wife and children and cheated with others. No matter what, but if the person you love does that to you, you swear you won't tear them apart the wolf eats you, you'll be ashamed to be the Porcupine's friend.
Dong Khanh found someone to narrate, he nodded in agreement, continued: "My mother did not agree, and made all kinds of requests for divorce."
"Oh, asking to divide the property? Is it new to your father, if you're already divorced, you've been divorced for a long time and have waited until now?"
"That's it, but the important thing is that my father has no more shares, the property in the house is only three parts of him." The amount of property left by his grandmother as a will all belong to him, and his grandmother's family, because there was no heir, also put almost eight parts in for him. Regardless of how well the other two acted, he didn't care. Dong Khanh did not say, but all his assets are now waiting for Bao Boi to name and fill in his will.
"Forget about that, are you going to put your half-brother in?"
"No, he can self-generate and self-destruct, who is free to take care of him. If he's older than me, he's older than me when he's older, he's old and he's unemployed, so he doesn't seem to be doing any good."
"Hard, but yes, if you don't like it, don't take the trouble of having to drop your eyes every day."
He heard that laughing haha very happy, it is true that if someone shares, anything can be happy. He looked over at him who was making a calculating face, couldn't help but laugh even deeper. Canh Yen suddenly thought of something, narrowed her eyes, and asked:
"When you come back, have you made a match for anyone?"
"Yes, but you said you already have a lover so you don't want to meet." He quickly explained.
Canh Yen said well then didn't ask any more questions. The two of them had already determined that he didn't care much anymore. He understood him, of course, he wouldn't do those bad things, his father made him already disgusted, let alone waded into that mess. Overjoyed when he obediently told these stories again, Canh Yen silently added a point.
When I got home, it was almost 5 o'clock, at this time everyone was eating cake and drinking tea in the house. Before he left, he called his sister, telling her to find a way to briefly introduce the other male fertility so that he would not make his parents suspicious. But no matter what, he was also a bit worried, afraid that his parents would scold him for the tinnitus again.
Holding his hand and stepping inside, Dong Khanh went to visit his future parents-in-law, so he brought a present, carried it under his arm, and heard the laughter of an old man as soon as he entered. Grandpa holding the picture of the movie laughed until he wagged his beard, asked: "So you're going to have another grandchild? Haha, that's great, where have they been for so long?"
His mother drank a cup of tea, elegantly said: "Dad, you have to scold them once, don't tolerate them doing bad things."
"Right." Canh Minh's brother immediately agreed.
Grandfather heard it and immediately widened his eyes, saying: "Slamming him, what if he has a problem? What if your little great-grandson is scared? Don't scold at all, hurry up and wait for the boy to bring him food. son-in-law and then I try to come back and eat immediately."
Chaos, many Italians had to scold to deter them, and many people said not to scold at all. Talking back and forth, just being silent, his father suddenly stopped watching TV and suddenly put his coffee cup on the table, he said: "The children are tired, what are you scolding?" In the past, people say, when pregnant, pregnant people will be very tired and excited. What if he said this and that, his beloved son was shocked and his grandson had an accident.
Canh Yen stood outside the door listening to everyone's chatter but twitching the corner of her mouth, feeling mentally prepared for things like she imagined. You must have done something unwise so people would find out and then say it out loud.
Looking up at him, he was also looking at me with his head down, so what happens so easily, does he still want it to be bloodthirsty?
Holding his hand and walking inside, Canh Yen called out loudly: "Grandpa, my parents are back."
