Don’t blame me for having such concerns. I have long been accustomed to reporting good news but not bad news when I am living abroad. In fact, reporting good news but not bad news is not just a problem for children when they are away from home. My parents often told me that they have food and drink at home, but in fact I know , they have always lived a simple life, just to save some money and prepare for my future.
My parents are sensitive and like to think wildly. They think that working honestly is better than anything else, but they don’t know that I am pretending to be a grandson outside to make myself smile. If I tell them that I want to stand up and be the master, they will definitely say that my heart is as high as the sky and my life is as thin as paper. My mother has used this sentence to criticize me more than once. In their eyes, I should bow down and be a coward.
There seems to be something disconnected between my parents and I. I once wanted to try to change it, but the valuable experience gained from repeated blows told me that this kind of thing that has been formed for 20 or 30 years is destined to be difficult to change.
I told Lin Feifei my worries, and she understood, nodded and remained silent.
I bought high-speed rail tickets for my parents in the morning, and they arrived at the South High-speed Rail Station at 11 a.m.
Lin Feifei and I came to the station in advance to pick up the bus. My mother walked out first, her gray hair shining. I never thought that my parents would grow old, but at this moment, I glanced at them and suddenly realized that they were really old.
The sun shines on my mother's face, and in addition to her gray hair, it also reflects the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, like a deep ditch, passing through the traces of time. Her steps are not as vigorous as before, but more calm and old-fashioned.
This discovery made me heartbroken and helpless. I suppressed the pain in my heart and walked over quickly.
On the way, my mother said that the results of my father's recent recovery were gratifying. I was so excited that I casually said that it was worth the money, but my father suddenly sighed.
Along with this sigh, this deep sigh was like a heavy pressure, making me feel a little depressed.
I glanced at the central rearview mirror. The corners of my father's mouth drooped slightly, and there was worry between his brows.
He was serious as soon as he opened his mouth, "Yu Bin! Tell me the truth, is it expensive to give me this kind of rehabilitation treatment? Otherwise, just don't do it. I'm already so old, so it doesn't matter."
My heart sank. At this time, the car drove into a dark tunnel. I suddenly felt like a trance. The outside sounds seemed to be gradually cut off, and there was only the sound of wheels rubbing on the road. When the car drove out of the tunnel, the bright light illuminated my eyes, and the outside scenery unfolded like a picture scroll. This transition from darkness to light shocked me.
I adjusted my mood, chuckled and said to my father, "Don't worry about money. I've made a lot of money in the past two years, which is enough to treat you. Besides, if the money is gone, can I make it again? The worst case scenario is that I'll have to start all over again. People are more important than money."
The father sighed again, "This is different. Can't I still walk with a cane? I don't think it's necessary to do rehabilitation and waste money."
At this time, Lin Feifei turned around and said sweetly: "Uncle, don't say that. Just take good care of your body. Yu Bin is so old and can handle it. Just treat your illness well and enjoy your life. Money Don't worry."
The father patted his thigh, showed a smile, and sighed: "Feifei... When you get to my age, you will understand that I don't dare to step back before my son has a family and a career! I still have to run for him!" "
Lin Feifei's smile froze for a moment and she didn't know what to say.
In an instant, there was no sound in the carriage, and there was an awkward atmosphere in the air. I touched my nose and forced myself to laugh a few times, "Dad, don't be too anxious. My daughter-in-law won't let you take all this." You’re back! I just need to get some evidence.”
The father hummed a few times but did not express any opinion. After all, Lin Feifei, the person involved, was also there, so he couldn't say anything deeply.
The rest of the journey was carried out in this awkward atmosphere. After I got home, I settled my parents first, and then we went into the kitchen to cook. After a busy day, I was so tired that I fell asleep in bed after lunch. When I woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
Lin Feifei was afraid that my mother would be bored, so after dinner, she specially accompanied her to dance in a nearby square. In order to help my mother integrate into the life here early, she also joined the elderly dance group
Singing and dancing.
My mother was quickly infected by the atmosphere of our local square dance. My father sat in a wheelchair and supervised the dance, so that no old man with more flexible legs and legs than him, who was richer than him, would have any ideas about my mother.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the square, covering every inch of land and every inch of buildings with golden brilliance. Lin Feifei and I hold hands, and I hold hands with her as we walk in the square. A breeze blows and the corners of our skirts fly. .
Our shadows stretch very long under the sunset, and I hope our relationship can be like this too.
I took the initiative and said, "You performed very well today! Thank you for your hard work."
Lin Feifei smiled and said, "Isn't this just to strive for a good performance? I can't help it, who makes my uncle and aunt like Zhou Shutong more!"
I felt bitterness in my mouth, "You see you are still distracted. Don't take what she said to heart."
A sad look appeared on Lin Feifei's face, "How could I not take it seriously? But I will work hard to prove that I am no worse than Zhou Shutong."
The corners of her lips curved, giving rise to a faint bitter smile. I felt as if my heart ached slightly. I couldn't help but reach out and rub her seaweed-like hair, and said with a smile: "You are very good. You don't have to talk to others." Compare."
Lin Feifei's eyes lit up, she tilted her head and smiled at me, "Really?"
"Fake!"
"you……"
She frowned and was about to pretend to be angry, but I followed suit and said, "I was kidding you! Being so angry hurts your chest. You have breast fibroids. You need to control your emotions."
Lin Feifei snorted, "I know you are still angry with me?"
"I recently learned some massage techniques from the Internet, and I'll give them a try tonight."
Lin Feifei's face felt like two peach blossoms had fallen, and she gave me an angry look, "Don't come here, don't think that I don't know what you think! I'm warning you, your uncle and aunt are here, so be honest."
I chuckled, "To tell you the truth, my parents really want to have a grandson as soon as possible!"
Lin Feifei said decisively, "No, this shabby house is not soundproofed well, you..."
Before she finished speaking, her phone suddenly rang. She took it out of her pocket and looked at it, and her face suddenly changed...
"Who is it?" When I saw her face, I immediately became uncomfortable and asked quickly.
A wry smile emerged from the corner of Lin Feifei's mouth, she frowned, and said helplessly: "Who else could it be? My mother!"
