Chapter 21 A Father's Love Is Like a Mountain

When I returned to the office with the secretary, it was already dark. He washed his face with cold water, trying to cool off his troubled mood, but to no avail, leaning back in his chair and staring at the plaque directly above him, hoping that the reality that could not be faced could fade away in an infinite, virtual vision, but the big and small chances always alternated towards him.

He is an extremely traditional man, and he has always been good at what he says. My wife has been gone for almost 20 years, and I am afraid that my daughter will be wronged in the future. Letting my daughter study medicine is to hope that she will become a doctor with universal value in the future. He has done all of this, and he is often very pleased with it. But now, the cruel reality suddenly plunged him into a deep confusion and painful quagmire, and so many years of suffering were ruined. Next, how should he face the millions of citizens and the rural people who are full of expectations for him? How could a dignified and upright secretary of the municipal party committee give birth to such a daughter who is rebellious and immoral?

In the haze, Xiao Suiyuan began to grab him again. In any case, his grandfather is determined, even though life has imposed it on him. Last night, the daughter who was alone in the cold night gradually became a little match girl. Somehow, the poor little girl turned into a little casual...... People can't always huddle in the virtual world, shivering at the intrusion of the cold wind. A strong sense of pity dispelled the emptiness in front of him and brought him back to reality.

A generous man is always good at empathy. Everything that happened in front of her is enough to prove that her daughter must have been haunted by hidden feelings for a long time, and she is suffering in the life she has set foot in too early. No matter what she did, right or wrong, that didn't change the fact that she was her only daughter. The indifference of the world has long scarred her, and now the most important thing is to give her a help and tolerance as a father.

He deserves to have been an excellent scout, with extraordinary clarity and agility in logical thinking, and knows his daughter too well. Know what she's thinking right now, and even what she wants to do. Not allowing himself to think about it any longer, he pressed a button on the table.

After a while, a young man knocked on the door and walked in. He was smart and handsome in a suit and leather shoes, and he was the personal guard and driver of the secretary. In fact, he is also an armed police soldier with extraordinary skills, who was recommended by Vice Governor Li and came to the city from the provincial capital with the secretary. Usually everyone likes to call him Xiao Wang.

"Happy New Year, secretary! Xiao Wang gave a military salute.

Sui Shu pretended to be normal, smiled and beckoned to him, signaling him to come closer. "How's it going, it was a lot of fun last night, wasn't it?"

"It's so lively, it's worrying for a night. You say, if something happens to you, don't we all have to be finished with it?" Xiao Wang was obviously dissatisfied with the secretary acting alone last night.

"Okay, I'll pay attention to it later. Secretary Sui smiled and looked at his watch, "You prepare immediately, and wait for me at the entrance of the Imperial Hotel in an hour." Let's go back to the provincial party committee, and I'll let you know when we come back. ”

Xiao Wang was happy when he heard it. His home is in the provincial capital, and the whole family for the New Year is one of him, can you not be happy. "The secretary misses his daughter, right?" he said with a somewhat naughty look.

"Less nonsense, hurry. The secretary urged. Everyone around him knows that he has raised a beautiful and delicious girl, which has made many young men think about it for many years, but no one has enough of it. Because of this, he usually does not easily tell anyone about his daughter's whereabouts.

Xiao Suiyuan appeared in "Little Family Biyu", and the daughter would definitely not leave its surroundings too far. The "Imperial" hotel is too expensive, and she will definitely not live in it. He took a taxi and stopped in front of a hotel about 100 meters away from the "small jasper", and not far from the left side of the road is the "Imperial Hotel".

Everything went smoothly in his imagination. It was at this inn that he found out all the information about his daughter. The waiter told him that the guy named Suiyuan had checked out an hour earlier. Sui looked at his watch, there were still twenty minutes before eight o'clock, so he checked the departure times of trains and Changqi around eight o'clock. Since he was transferred out of the provincial capital, he will not go back if his daughter is not at home. Where else could she go if she left here? He calculated that whether his daughter took the train or the Changshi, it would take three hours before she arrived at home. He hurried to the Imperial Hotel, where Xiao Wang was already waiting.

The provincial capital is not far from here, and it is usually a little more than two miles away at most. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there were few cars on the road, and Xiao Wang only took nearly an hour and a half to arrive. He sent the secretary to the door of his house, itching to go upstairs to see the beauty of the big fate, but the secretary didn't speak, so he could only go home and wait for randomly, and he dreamed of fulfilling his wish.

As the secretary opened the door, a cold air hit his face. As usual, he first pulled back the curtains of the balcony and let the golden sunlight fill the living room. The school is not far from home, and I have to come back every weekend, and I always keep the house clean and spotless.

This is a two-bedroom house, which was standard for his position at that time, and his wife left after not living in it for two years. He went to the door of his daughter's room, and how he hoped that she had not yet woken up from a sound sleep, and after standing for a long time pushing the door open, he was disappointed by the gloomy silence of the room. However, the fragrance of his daughter, which can only be experienced by a father, has not yet dissipated, which makes him feel excited, and he hurriedly returns to the living room. He looked around quickly at all the furnishings, then walked to the window, and licked the surface of the windowsill with his forefinger, but it was spotless, and the green of the orchid bathed in the sun, and the clean leaves of the leaves proved to be correct. He suddenly remembered something, and instantly closed the curtains again, and the room was silent again.

He walked into his room and stared at the image of his wife standing on the wall for a long time. "Wife, I'm sorry for you for not taking good care of our daughter and letting her do something that you absolutely unforgivable in your lifetime. Can you forgive her? You're a grandmother now, whether you like it or not, it's a fait accompli. The little one is very cute, exactly like when my daughter was a child, and just like you. Your granddaughter is also called Suiyuan, so you should forgive your daughter for the sake of Xiao Suiyuan, right?" he said to himself, full of emotion.

He went back to the living room and smoked...... The right and wrong of the great fate doesn't matter anymore. The key is that he will face pressure from many quarters: the responsibility and public image of a secretary of the municipal party committee, the self-discipline and reputation of a Communist Party member, and Da Suiyuan, after all, is still a student, no matter what happens to her in the future, she will have to face the rivers and rivers, and his family,......

It was almost eleven o'clock in the afternoon, and the whole house was filled with thick smoke. In the midst of his thoughts, he suddenly became aware of a slight noise outside the door.

There is indeed a person standing outside the door, she is the woman who passed by with the secretary and the river in the early hours of this morning - Da Suiyuan. She no longer hides her face with a scarf, and she looks like what Yang Weihua said half a year ago: she looks like the Ziwei girl in the TV "Huanzhu Gege". At this time, she looked terrified, and the hand holding the key trembled, and the door opened before she could insert the key into the keyhole.

Faced with the sudden sight of her father, she was even more frightened, convinced that her father had recognized her last night, and also verified the child's identity from the gift she gave to Xiao Suiyuan. She knows her father's fierce character, this kind of thing is absolutely zero tolerance under normal circumstances, and it is entirely possible to slap herself into bedridden. But what she never expected was that her father was smiling at her all the time, as if nothing had happened. The majesty of father's love dispelled the gloom that filled her whole heart with a great power. She was no longer afraid, and her tears washed away the only resentment in her father's heart.

The haggard daughter made Secretary Sui's heart ache like a knife. "It's cold outside, aren't you? Hungry, isn't it? Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, let's go out for New Year's dinner later, okay?"

Da Suiyuan fell into his father's arms, trembling all over, sobbing and letting the tears keep flowing...... The secretary carried her daughter into the house and sat her on the sofa.

After a long time, Da Suiyuan's mind calmed down. She mustered up the courage and forced a happy face to say to her father: "Dad, I'm sorry, my daughter has embarrassed you." ”

"Lose your hair, Dad really wants to slap you to death—but what about Xiao Suiyuan? She can't live without her mother—miss her?"

Da Suiyuan nodded. The secretary comforted her again, "From now on, you have to cheer up." Dad knows that you are not willing to do this kind of thing, and you must have a hard time. It's just that you shouldn't have hidden it from Dad, and you've been hiding it for so long. You know, stupid boy? This is a big thing in life, you can't carry it alone, and the longer you carry it, the deeper and more painful it will hurt. ”

"Actually, since you came back from Uncle Xu'er last time and told me about Xiao Suiyuan, I've been worried about today—I really can't imagine that my father will forgive me. ”

Secretary Sui said self-deprecatingly: "This matter is too coincidental, but coincidentally, people can't believe it, and they let me put it on the stall." He sighed deeply, "I forgive you, but it's for the sake of your mother and Xiao Suiyuan's face." ”

No matter what, as long as you forgive, it's a blessing, Da Suifate thought to himself. After nearly two years of depression, he was instantly relieved, and he was like a death row prisoner who was suddenly released. She was glad that she had regained her long-lost good mood and began to take a shower and change clothes......

Da Suiyuan walked out of his room, dressed in red, which pleased his father. "Dad, shall we go?"

The secretary pressed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray, "Go, talk to your mother." ”

When Da Sui Yuan heard this, a wry smile appeared on his face. "I, I've confessed to my mother several times. ”

"But I haven't seen it once. ”

He got up with the secretary, dragged his daughter's arm into his bedroom, and let him stand in front of his wife's portrait.

Da Suiyuan clasped his hands together, "Mom, I was wrong, I ask for your forgiveness." In the future, I will definitely listen to my father's words, clean myself, make up for my past mistakes, and be a good mother like you. Mom, I thank you for giving me a good dad. It was my father who gave me the courage to live and gave me hope for the future again. ”

"Your mother doted on you more than I did when she was alive, and she will definitely forgive you. Let's go, let's find a place to have New Year's dinner. ”

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, it was noon time for dinner, so there were few people and cars on the street. Although it was cold, the abundant sunshine still made people feel the strong breath of spring. The pavement is covered with a thick layer of red firecracker confetti, like the reflection of strings of red lanterns overhead. Da Suiyuan walked by his father's arm, very pleasant.

"Last night, you just wanted to send something to Xiao Suiyuan?" asked the secretary.

"Not exactly. I really wanted to see her, even if I could hear her laugh or cry, but I knew it couldn't be. ”

"In the future, Dad will create conditions for you—to be honest, Xiao Suiyuan's situation reassures me, she is much better with your Uncle Jiang than with us. ”

Da Suiyuan glanced at his father sideways, "That Uncle Jiang is a good person in the world, I don't know how to repay him in the future?"

"Isn't it just a good person, he didn't even have a home for Xiao Suiyuan, and now Xiao Suiyuan has long been linked to his fate. I'm afraid that the longer it goes, the harder it will be for him to give up. After speaking, he smiled bitterly again, "Look at this matter, you are making trouble, the generations of our ancestors and grandchildren are all messed up." ”

Da Suiyuan was deeply ashamed, so he didn't make a sound.
