"I'm back? I washed my hands and ate." When I returned to my refuge, my mother's voice greeted me to eat.
A smile appeared on Chen Xin's face. After leaving home for so long, it is undoubtedly a great happiness for Chen Xin to be able to eat his mother's meals every day after work.
At the dining table, his father was setting the table and chopsticks, and Mo Qingyan and Qin Lan were helping to carry food from the kitchen.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xin still feels somewhat embarrassed. After all, it is two girlfriends, which was not accepted by the public in the past.
Although both Mo Qingyan and Qin Lan have accepted the current way of getting along, Chen Xin still feels somewhat strange, especially when they appear together with their parents.
It's like a boy who takes his girlfriend home and feels a little uncomfortable the first time.
Although Chen Xin has taken his girlfriend home for a long time, it is always against the morals of two girlfriends, and it is inevitable that he will worry that his parents will not accept it.
Fortunately, Chen Xin's parents didn't mind this. Although it was really difficult to accept that his son had two girlfriends, they didn't say much.
In such a big environment, being able to be a family is already the greatest happiness, there is no need to care about others.
The family sat around the dining table and ate dishes that were ordinary, but full of the taste of home. Whether it was before or after the disaster, it was a simple and happy thing.
"Son, what are you up to lately? Didn't you just come back from abroad? Why are you on a business trip again in the past two days?" Chen Xin's mother glanced at her son and asked about his work.
"For work matters, there is a device to test." Chen Xin did not explain too much, but simply said what he was doing.
For a mother, as long as she knows what her son is doing, it is enough to make her feel at ease, and she doesn't need to know too much.
As for the father on the sidelines, he just exhorted Chen Xin: "You must be serious about your work and don't be sloppy. Do you know if you are a leader now and should lead by example?"
"I see, Dad." Chen Xin responded habitually. From childhood to adulthood, his father hadn't missed all kinds of instructions before eating, and Chen Xin became a habit of listening.
But even so, there are still many insights and precious life experiences in the advice of his parents, and Chen Xin did not show any impatience.
After eating, Chen Xin wanted to help wash the dishes, but was kicked out of the kitchen.
Seeing Qin Lan and Mo Qingyan washing the dishes in the kitchen, Chen Xin touched his nose, turned and left, and went back to his room.
Although according to family rules, it is women who cook and men wash the dishes, but since the two girlfriends are rushing to do the dishes, Chen Xin is also happy to save some trouble.
After staying outside for half a year, although I didn't suffer much, it was still worse than the comfortable environment meticulously built by myself at home.
So after returning to his room, Chen Xin lay down on the bed, looking lazy and not wanting to get up.
"Huhu, this energy is indeed not as good as before!" Chen Xin couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Perhaps it was because of my age. Even though I was only in his thirties and had been home for several days, the exhaustion caused by long time outs did not subside.
If it was the past, Chen Xin would not feel so tired. He even went on a business trip to the Shanghai Stock Exchange in the morning, and came back at two or three in the morning after he was busy, and continued to work the next day.
But now the body can no longer bear such hard work.
Thinking of this, Chen Xin couldn't help but want to go to a hot spring.
Although some people say that hot springs can’t really relieve fatigue, they just make people feel physically comfortable, so that they feel relaxed and fatigue is still there, but this does not prevent Chen Xin from hoping to let himself take a bath. Relax.
When he came to the bathroom and took off his clothes, Chen Xin immersed himself in the bath.
Feeling the warm water enveloping him, he couldn't help taking a long breath.
I have to say that the island country across the sea has a soft spot for bathing. No matter how poor the family is, there is a reason to bathe even if you have a cement pool or an iron bucket to burn wood.
This kind of relaxation brought by soaking the whole person in hot water is unmatched by any other method.
Chen Xin was away for half a year before. Although there is no shortage of various living conditions and he can take a bath anytime he wants to take a bath, it is impossible to say that he provides him with the service of bathing, no matter how good his life is.
After all, Lucia was already in short supply at the time. In the end, it was necessary to rely on the energy towers supported by Yan Country to maintain the city's heating. How could there be excess resources to repair the bathhouse?
While soaking in the bath to eliminate fatigue, Chen Xin couldn't help but compare the living standards of the people between Lucia and Yan.
As a former superpower, Lucia is completely in decline. Although before the disaster, relying on the iron fist and strength of this generation of leaders, the entire country has gradually emerged from the quagmire brought by the disintegration of Suvia, but the entire country It is still full of problems.
The arrival of the disaster almost completely destroyed this country.
This can be deeply felt in the lives of the people who have seen Chen Xin after arriving at Lucia.
Although the lives of the people in Yan Country have also been greatly affected, overall, at least they have not encountered food shortages and serious survival problems.
Although there are also many problems in various aspects, the country has been working hard to solve the problems so that the people can live better.
Although there is still a big gap from the life before the disaster, at least the people of Yan Country have achieved a worry-free life, food and drink.
Not to mention the issue of urban riots or large-scale epidemics.
As for Lucia...Although Lucia's situation has improved in all aspects when Chen Xin left, the riots in the city have been completely resolved, and heating and food have been guaranteed with the aid of Yan Country, but on the whole The standard of living of the Lucia people is still very low.
Such a contrasting gap made Chen Xin even more grateful that he was able to live in Yan Country.
If he lives in Lucia, even if there is a system, he will have a hard time living the way he is now. The most likely thing is to hide in his own refuge and live his life every day, right?
It will not be like this, you can live without pressure, and you can even think about how to end this disaster.
