Chapter 79 Family!
Kandesas,
Compared with other high-rise buildings in the United States and every inch of land is valuable, most of the land here is for farming purposes, which can be called the granary of the United States.
So there are all kinds of farmers here, including some rich people covering an area of hundreds of hectares.
The only remaining land of the Mayweather family also exists here.
So from the moment I stepped into Kandesas, Jona's mood always had uncontrollable ups and downs, and she almost couldn't control the Hummer's steering wheel several times.
In fact, Jona can choose a more convenient and labor-saving mode of transportation.
But I finally had a chance to travel for a job in the workplace over the years. In addition to relaxing my mood and looking at the scenery, Jona is mainly adjusting her mentality.
After all, after graduating from high school, Jona rarely returns here. And this time, Jona comes back, in addition to visiting relatives, his main purpose is to inform everyone in the Mayweather family of conditions offered by Wu Dong.
When the boots stepped on the land where the Mayweather family belonged, Jona felt that the air here was filled with all kinds of memories that could evoke her.
Every step and every meter allow Jona to find corresponding memories in her mind.
Especially when the old house that carries her entire adolescence appeared in her sight, Jona unconsciously stopped.
After this last step fell, scenes appeared in Jonah's mind.
Reminiscence, family affection,
Sorrow, pain.
There are so many emotions left here. Even after experiencing guns and bullets, they struggled to climb out from the edge of death again and again.
But when he returned here again, Jona seemed to turn into the little girl of that year.
hesitate,
Jona didn't know what mentality she should take or what purpose she should take this step.
Crack...
Just as Jona was still in her past emotions, the old wooden door was slowly pushed open. A man in his fifties, with a piston-faced face and a cheap cigar in his mouth.
Although the man was unkempt and his jacket looked a little old. However, he did not have the big belly of middle-aged and elderly people, but instead looked very strong. I don’t know if it was due to the years of farming or deliberately maintained it.
When the man first came out, he didn't see Jonah, and he was still humming a song. Some presbyopic eyes only let him see a person in front of him.
"Hey? Are you lost?"
I thought Jona was a lost traveler, but the man gradually approached after he said hello.
"I Defa..."
The distance close enough for the man to see Jona's face clearly. Although it was a little different, it could still allow him to overlap the woman in front of him with the little girl in his memory.
Especially at this location, the chances of a person who looks like Jonah coming here are extremely small.
"Jona?"
He shouted tentatively.
After hearing the man's call, Jona first wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes, and then replied with her mouth curled up: "You are old! Uncle Charles!"
"Oh! Jonah, is it really you?"
After years of reunion, Charles's mouth was so excited that he grew up, and without considering the cheap cigars that fell to the ground, he opened his arms and hugged Jonah in his arms.
Jona also missed this uncle who took care of her entire teenager very much. So she was very calm and convenient for Charles to hug her.
Since Jonah's parents died, Charles has raised Jonah as his third child, even better than his own.
However, at that time, Jona only wanted to escape from afar. So when she became an adult, she chose to join the army and later became a mercenary. She had no place to live, so she had no more contact with this family.
So, when he saw his uncle again, the uncle who replaced his father and accompanied her to grow up, Jona finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Uncle Charles...I'm sorry...I...I..."
At this time, no words could express the guilt in Jonah's heart, especially looking at her uncle's gray hair and wrinkles on her face. Jonah felt deeply that she owed Charles in this regard.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's good to come back, it's good to come back!"
Touching Jona's back.
But Charles would never have thought that this in his arms needed his comfort. He even thought he was the weak little girl in his memory, but in fact he had become a mercenary who killed people without blood.
"Charles!!!"
Before Jona could stop crying, a shrill cry alarmed the two people hugging each other.
Looking in the direction of the scream, he saw Charles's wife, Jenny Mayweather, standing not far away.
At this moment, Jenny's already old face added a bit of hideousness.
"Charles! You damn bastard! What are you doing? Who is this bitch? God! Do you know that she looks younger than your daughter, and you actually..."
Listening to his wife cursing more and more excessively, Charles quickly stopped and said, "Jenny! What are you talking about! Damn it, shut your mouth quickly, or I..."
"ha?"
When he heard that Charles dared to talk back, Jenny said with anger and grievance: "Fake! Charles, you are actually for this woman... Otherwise, what are you going to do? Do you still want to hit me?"
Domestic violence,
No matter which country it is, it is an extremely shameful act.
Charles himself was also disgusted with this kind of behavior, so even if Jenny was so provocative, Charles was just so angry that his face turned red, but he would not attack his wife.
"Okay, Uncle Charles, let me talk to Aunt Jenny!"
After pulling Charles, Jona said to Jenny with a smile: "Long time no see, Aunt Jenny."
Originally, when Jenny saw that Jonah had dared to get close to Charles in front of her, she was so angry that she came and scolded again: "You little bitch..."
However, after Jonah's greeting, Jenny suddenly changed her mouth and asked, "What? What are you calling me?"
Still with a smile on his face, Jonah walked up to Jenny, hugged her tightly, and said in Jenny's ear: "Aunt Jenny, I miss you so much!"
This situation made Jenny unable to defend herself, and her arms were stiff in the air, either hugging or pushing away.
The woman who originally thought she was a third party actually hugged her husband in her arms, so how could she reason?
But soon, Jenny reacted.
He pushed Jona away and held Jenny's cheeks with her wrinkled hands, asking with an incredible expression: "You... are you Jona?"
"Well, it's me, Aunt Jenny, you're old too!"
“Um…”
In an instant, Jenny hugged Jonah tightly in her arms and choked up, "Jona! It's really you! It's really you, I thought... wuwu..."
At the end of the conversation, Jenny was already crying.
Jenny is not a stepmother.
She has never abused Jona, or because after Jona's parents died, one more member of her family suddenly appeared.
She really regarded Jona as her daughter.
now,
The wanderer returns home,
Chapter completed!
