Chapter 67: Money Is More Important Than Love?
There must be a friend who will say, "What's so strange about steamed buns, what you said is a bit too exaggerated, right?
Actually, it's not an exaggeration at all.
I believe that if you see such steamed buns, you will be surprised and can't close your mouth!
This steamed bun is the size of half a basketball, and a lap larger than the diameter of my head!
It was the first time I had seen such a big steamed bun, and I excitedly held one high with both hands: "Mom, are you making this big steamed bun? I can't eat it at all!"
Then I put the steamed bun on the top of the basin and gestured again, you see: "Such a big pot can only be stacked for two, and no more one will work!"
Then, I put the steamed bun on my head again, looking like an "umbrella mushroom" from a distance, and jumped up and spun around on the ground several times, saying happily as I turned:
"Big steamed buns, big steamed buns, I have a big steamed bun!"
My mother looked at me with doting eyes and said, "Silly boy, this steamed bun costs about 1 catty, and the miner uncles at the construction site have to eat one each! Many times the worker uncles don't have enough to eat! Mom has to use 50 catties of noodles every day when she steams steamed buns for lunch and dinner." As she spoke, the mother pointed to the dozen bags of flour stacked on the ground along the wall, "You see, you have to use up one bag of flour here every day!"
Curious, I put down the "huge" steamed bun and tried to lift the bag of flour, but I only dragged it a little bit with all my might, and I couldn't move it at all!
"Aren't you very tired, Mom?" I tried my mother's labor with practical actions: "Mom, you see, I am already very tired if I want to move this bag of 50 catties of flour, and if I add water, it is also a big problem to mix noodles." ”
"Mom is not tired! For you, let Mom do anything!" Mom touched my head dotingly, and said with a smile: "Dunzi, only through your own hard work, hard work is the best, isn't it? And you must know that there is nothing in the world that is not earned without hard work." ”
Mom seemed to have a slight point in her words, and continued: "In order to be able to cook the food for the workers and uncles in time at noon, my mother got up at 5:00 in the morning and began to spread noodles, steam steamed buns, and cook, and could not prepare the meal until noon. After a short break at noon, the evening meal will start at 2:00 p.m., and the workers and uncles on the construction site will have a hot meal at 8:00 p.m. ”
"After the uncles finished eating and my mother cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, it was past eleven o'clock in the evening. "When my mother was talking, I always glanced at my father, consciously or unconsciously.
From the first moment my father stepped into the construction site, he never said a word, nor did he show any concern for his mother or ask for warmth, I don't know what he was thinking.
Therefore, my mother deliberately told me about her work situation and time, and I also hoped that after my father heard it, he would be more or less concerned and considerate.
What woman is willing to leave her family and business to run around? What woman doesn't want her husband to care more about and love her?
Even though she is a "man", she is always a woman in her bones! she needs to be cared for, cared for, and loved!
But when the food was served, my father first habitually picked up the dishes and chopsticks, bowed his head to eat, and never spoke.
Later, my mother was also very knowledgeable and didn't say anything more, maybe she still realized some bad signs!
Then, my mother took out the super big steamed bun and stuffed it into my hand: "Come on, come on, you must be very tired after walking all morning today, let's eat." ”
"Hmm!" I happily took the very big steamed bun, hid my face behind the steamed bun, and pretended to bite it "hard", making my mother laugh.
This is the first time that the whole family has eaten together since my mother went out to work and left home for more than a month.
And I, especially enjoy this kind of life.
But I never thought that I really never expected that my father's words after that made me look forward to, dream, long, and yearn for the family atmosphere that I had been looking forward to, dreaming, longing for, and longing for was shattered again, not only my mother, but even after I listened to his words, I also felt disappointing!
"You two are riding here?" the mother seemed to feel that the atmosphere of the lunch was indeed a little awkward and cold, so she opened her mouth to interrupt the awkward situation and asked the father.
"Of course we came by bicycle, could it be that we could still come by car? Didn't you see when we entered the door?" the father said coldly, with a hint of displeasure.
"Yes, Mom, Dad brought me on a bicycle. I responded very positively to my mother's words, for fear that my mother would feel uncomfortable: "The road is very difficult to walk, potholes, I walked with my father for a while and rode for a while, but I didn't expect it to be very fast!"
Speaking of which, I suddenly realized that I had grown a lot.
"Didn't I tell you before I left? If you call and say it before you leave, I will at least be mentally prepared to make you two some delicious food in advance, and see that you have been 'running' all morning, and when you come, you can only eat the same things as the workers, and my son will suffer with it. Mother said with some disgust.
"Hmph! That's it, you work hard here, you are tired, at least you have a mouthful of food to eat and a mouthful of water to drink, my son and I are almost unable to open the pot!" the father replied in a strange manner.
It's not good, this hero is going to find fault again!
Hearing my father's obvious provocative answer, my heart suddenly jumped faster.
"What do you mean?" the mother seemed to ponder the meaning of this sentence, and asked suspiciously, "Why can't you open the pot?"
"You've been here for more than a month, it's time to pay your salary, right? I'm bringing my son to get my living expenses this time, don't you have food and drink here? Give me all your salary!"
Sure enough, this hero can say anything!
A seven-foot man who stands up to the sky and the earth is actually unashamedly asking his wife for living expenses!
Ouch, my father, where did you get the courage to take this cheeky skill to such a peak and extreme?
Before the words fell, the mother burst into tears.
"Dad, what are you talking about? You are here to ask my mother for living expenses?" Seeing my mother suddenly crying loudly, I was extremely angry: "Why do you ask my mother for money as soon as you see her? As a husband, you can't ask your wife if she is tired from work? Is it hard work? Is it good to rest? At least 'Lala's homework' is also good, right? As a man, don't you think it's a shame to ask a woman for living expenses?"
"As soon as you came, you lay on the kang, either smoking or sleeping, and when you eat, you still 'pick your nose and eyes', why can't you talk and chat well?"
I angrily counted my father and tried to say something, but my mother interrupted me.
The mother vented for a while, telling her grievances and pain in a choked voice, as well as the process and end of working on the construction site.
The hardships and hardships on the construction site were blurted out by the mother one by one, and at the same time recalled the countless "cheeky" experiences of the hero.
Of course, these are all short words from some parents, so I won't repeat them here.
And I have become accustomed to such noise, occasionally helping my mother wipe her tears, comforting my mother a few words, complaining about my father a few words, and feeling like crying without tears.
My father listened to our mother and son vent "patiently", until he could only hear the mother's whimper, and my father still maintained a "dead pig is not afraid of boiling water" and spoke: "It's useless to say this, I don't want to listen to it, I am concerned about the living expenses of our father and son." If you think about it this way, your son will not be able to eat immediately, if you can't get the money, your son will have nothing to eat when he goes back this time, you can do it!"
There is a way that:
A seven-foot man is in the world, and he doesn't want to work but is idle.
It is rare to be brazen and rely on his wife to support him.
Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, who has fate ever mercy on?
The Heavenly Dao Wheel responded unpleasantly, and the warmth and coldness were in their hearts.
Angry to the extreme, I finally couldn't help but explode, "snap", and slapped the case: "I don't understand, you 'thousands of miles' chased to the construction site, my mother's 'cold and warm', you don't even ask, my mother is crying like this, you are just 'one mind' in order to ask for money, living expenses, drink!
The father seemed to feel that his own son was roaring so loudly, "challenging" his unquestionable authority, and suddenly the "comfortable sleep style" lying on the pillow changed to the "violent upright type" with lightning speed, standing on the kang and looking down at me "condescendingly", pointing at my nose and roaring: Little rabbit cub, "If you don't have 'money', you can't afford to live, you want 'love' to have a use!"
The words are amazing, and they are loud!
I was speechless!
Could it be that the wife in your heart is just a tool to make money? When you are short of money, you will come as soon as you are short, and you will abandon it after taking the money?
Is the wife in your heart just a tool for pleasure? When you are happy, she beckons and when she is angry, and she lingers when she is angry?
What's the use of asking me about love?
Love is the foundation of home! Love is the cornerstone of home!
Only with affection can there be a home, and there must be affection when there is a home!
Home is a place to talk about "love", and I will not let the copper smell of money "tarnish" the sanctity of home;
Home is a place where "love" is spoken, and I will not let the ruthless taste of material things "occupy" the sincerity of home!
......
Ten years in the same boat, a hundred years of love.
Get along with each other in the morning and at dusk, and be sad every day.
Since there is no love, why are they husband and wife?
It's a lotus, why is it too anxious?
Husband and wife for decades, how can they be ruthless?
Giving birth to children and having daughters, is it a scene?
If a person is not a saint or a sage, who can have no bad deeds?
May you turn back as soon as possible, love is the foundation of the family!
