If you speak out, water will be thrown out.
A man doesn’t have the guts to reason with his elder brother, let alone refuse to pay.
I could only hold my nose and admit it.
...
But now, looking at the faint frustration between the two old men's eyebrows, he felt a trace of regret and pain in his heart.
This time...he really did something really stupid.
he knows.
However, the stiffness of the body caused the pain that had not gone away in the whole body to rise again.
He thought of the cold smile in his elder brother's eyes.
His whole body was shaken.
In any case, the wrong thing has been done, and it will be of no use even if he regrets it.
The most important thing now is to get the real estate certificate to the elder brother.
...
"Dad, Mom, I know I was wrong."
There was a trace of real regret in the man's eyes. He stretched out his hands to tighten the clothes on his chest and said in a low voice, "I really know."
"this is the last time."
"Dad, Mom, after this time, I will come home."
"I will learn wood carving from my dad."
"I'm not going to do anything halfway again."
...
"you-"
The man's words made the old lady burst into tears again, "If you had been like this, how could you have happened today?"
"Why must..."
Only after suffering such a great loss do we know how to repent.
"The price...is really too high."
...
"mom."
The man was speechless.
Even though he was a bastard, he had never really thought about this house before.
As he said before, he is the only son of his parents, and this house will definitely be his in the end.
Why would he want to own his own house?
...
When he was at his most whimsical, he even thought that when he became rich, he would buy a villa.
The old man sold this dilapidated house if he wanted to.
If he didn't want to, he would wait until the two old men left before selling it.
.......
Unexpectedly, this house would no longer be his before it came into his hands.
...
"Are you serious?"
Mr. Mu was a little stunned. It seemed to be the first time he saw such an expression on this boy's face in his memory.
So, is he serious?
"It's not an emergency measure, just casual talk to get the real estate certificate?"
"Won't you give up halfway again?"
"Will you seriously learn wood carving from me?"
...
"real!"
The man wanted to swear to the sky, "Dad, Mom, I promise!"
"You believe me!"
...
The parents' silence made the man anxious.
He knows that he has a "criminal record" and it is difficult to convince others.
But, this time, he really meant it.
He was really hurt.
The sight of his parents suddenly aging several years really made him feel sad.
"Dad, Mom..."
For a moment, the only sound in the room was the man's constant assurance.
...
"Stop talking."
The old man interrupted the man.
...
"ah?"
Because he kept talking, the man's voice was hoarse, and his throat felt dry, making it difficult to swallow.
Looking at the expressionless faces of the two old men, the man felt frustrated, embarrassed, and... uncomfortable.
He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
...
The old man and the old lady looked at each other.
Immediately, two deep sighs sounded almost simultaneously in the room.
...
The two old men stared at the man for a long time, and the old man slowly opened his mouth.
Even though he suppressed it, he still felt a little trembling.
“…we’ll give you the deed.”
...
The man blinked and froze.
Did he hear it correctly?
He thought he would have to grind for a long time...
...
However, the man quickly reacted, "Really?!"
"Are you really willing to give me the real estate certificate?"
...
"What else can we do?"
The old lady had a wry smile on her face and sighed, "You are our son."
"Even if I get angry again and I don't want to care about you anymore..."
...
"How can we really ignore you?"
...
"Mom, Dad."
A line of clear tears fell from the corner of the man's eyes, "Thank you."
"Really sorry."
...
"Why are you crying?"
The old man rolled his eyes and said, "Now that you know what you're going to do if you cry?"
...
"You have to give us some time."
"The luggage needs to be packed... Where should I put the wood carvings in the store with so many? And the wood in the yard... and the orders from the customers..."
The old man rambled on, his expression gloomy.
...
"So many things..."
After all, this is the place where I have lived my whole life.
The old lady stretched out her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes, and also fell into thinking, "First call a moving company, there are so many things..."
"But where to move to?"
"Where...are we going to live?"
...
"Dad, Mom."
Listening to the muffled voices of the two old men, the man who was about to get up stopped.
For the first time, he realized so clearly -
He is such an unfilial son!
...
"Grandpa Mu, Tan nǎinǎi."
The sudden sound broke the solemn and sad atmosphere in the room and startled everyone in the room.
They suddenly looked up.
...
"Ah, sorry, did I scare you?"
Xiao Xiao slowed down his speaking speed a bit.
...
"Xiaoxiao?"
Mr. Mu exclaimed in surprise, "You haven't gone back yet?"
...
"Sorry, I'm a little worried because of what happened before."
Xiao Xiao apologized for listening to other people's family affairs without permission.
Now it seems that he is overthinking.
...
Grandpa Mu's son obviously realized his mistake and looked repentant.
In this case, he should not hurt the two elders again for his own purposes.
What's more, the two old men also agreed to his request.
...
I pity the hearts of parents in the world.
Xiao Xiao felt a little emotional.
There are parents who abandon their children, but in comparison, there are more children who do not fulfill their obligation to support their parents or have a cold relationship with their parents.
After all, parents are the ones who give their feelings first.
Parents have been looking forward to their children since before they were born.
The child is the one who receives the feelings.
People often don't cherish things that are too common.
In other words, its importance and preciousness are unconsciously ignored.
...
"oh."
The old man suddenly understood what Xiao Xiao was referring to, and his gloomy face relaxed slightly, "Thank you, Xiao Xiao."
In order not to worry the old woman, he did not tell the details of what just happened.
...
"Xiaoxiao? This child is..."
The young man in front of her made the old lady feel vaguely familiar.
...
"It's Xiaoxiao from Xiao's Teahouse next door."
The old man twitched his lips, but did not say that the child came to remind them that there was almost a fire in their yard.
Things about my son are bad enough, so don't let your wife know about other bad things.
...
"ah."
The old lady whispered, "It's Xiaoxiao."
"Xiaoxiao, it's been such a long time."
"Really, it's rare for you to come here, but you see such a scene."
The old lady wanted to smile, but found that she couldn't laugh now.
...
Soon, this home was no longer their home. (To be continued)
