At dinner the next night, Tang Liyun and Ma Mingyuan glanced at each other. Ma Mingyuan cleared his throat and said:

"Toho, I've tried your free shopping card with your mother, it's true. ”

Ma Dongbao said happily: "Yes? What I said is true, you still don't believe it at first." ”

Ma Mingyuan saw that Ma Dongbao was very happy, so he continued to use a roundabout strategy, "This is good, but we still don't dare to use it, and we are not sure to use it." ”

"What's not down-to-earth, it's all for you to buy for free, and it's all verified, what's there to worry about?" Ma Dongbao felt incomprehensible.

Ma Mingyuan still said patiently: "Dongbao, you heard my father say that with my father's experience of living for so many years, there is no free lunch in this world, and even if there is, it is a charity or two, and it cannot last long." Your free card, now it seems that we don't have to pay on the surface, but there are always people behind the scenes who have to pay!"

Ma Dongbao said with certainty: "Yes, someone pays for it, but you don't have to buy it." You can use it with confidence. ”

Ma Mingyuan said with a serious face: "Dongbao, if Mom and Dad don't know who is paying the bill behind it, Mom and Dad really don't dare to use this card." ”

When Ma Dongbao heard this, he became anxious and shouted: "What do you mean? I finally got a free shopping card and kindly gave it to you to use, but you still don't appreciate it, and now I am still suspected of it? I will tell you that I did not steal it, nor did I rob it?" ”

Ma Ming** said calmly: "Son, don't worry, Dad is not suspicious of you, but is just communicating with you frankly." Can you tell Mom and Dad how this card came to be, and who is behind it?"

Ma Dongbao said impatiently: "I said that I won the lottery." After speaking, he shook his head and continued: "Forget it, let me tell you the truth, this card was not drawn by me playing the game, it was given to me by a person, and he was paying for me, right?"

"Who is that person?" Ma Mingyuan then asked.

"He is ......" Ma Dongbao hesitated, "He is a very powerful person, I can't say his name, but I can tell you, he calls me uncle, he is my eldest nephew, this time you can rest assured, right?"

"Big nephew?" Ma Mingyuan and Tang Liyun blurted out.

"Yes, my eldest nephew. Don't worry, I know this person, this little thing is a drop in the bucket for him, otherwise I won't let you use it. Ma Dongbao said confidently.

"But...... Can we ask......" Tang Liyun couldn't help but blurt out.

"It's nothing, let you use it, you can use it, where are you so worried and worried?" After speaking, Ma Dongbao got up and returned to the room, and stopped eating the rest of the unfinished meal.

Leaving Ma Mingyuan and Tang Liyun looking at each other, I don't know what to do.

In the end, Tang Liyun spoke first, "Forget it, don't ask your son, whether you believe it or not, anyway, I believe in my son, and I will continue to use it in the future." ”

Ma Mingyuan wanted to speak and stopped, but ......

Tang Liyun said: "It's not so much, it's used, but there has to be a principle, we buy everything we need to buy, and we don't buy anything that we don't need or exceeds the standard." And every time we buy it, we keep an account, save the money spent, and in the future, if someone comes to the door to ask for it, we will return the money to the family. ”

Ma Mingyuan nodded, it could only be like this.

Ma Dongbao, who returned to his house, was still angry, and he finally managed his eldest nephew to get a free shopping card, does the eldest nephew care about this free shopping card for such a big business? Even if you two buy things online every day, you can't buy others, not to mention once a month, only twelve times a year. And how many things can you buy at a time for ordinary people? The eldest nephew also believes in our personality and will not be insatiable enough to give it to us. Are you two so worried?

Ma Dongbao was sulking, and Xiao Dubao spoke, "Brother Dong, you shouldn't have been angry with your parents and lost your temper just now. Originally, you were also kind, but you didn't get a good reward. It makes your parents and you unhappy. ”

Ma Dongbao bowed his head and was silent.

"I know you didn't control your emotions just now, you should take the initiative to apologize to your parents. Xiao Dubao continued to persuade Ma Dongbao, "Look at me, I was separated from my parents as soon as I was born, so it's like you can stay with your parents all the time, you should cherish it!"

Oh my God! This still doesn't let people live? I've never taken the initiative to humble my parents when I'm so old. But thinking about what Xiao Dubao said, Ma Dongbao felt that he was also very reasonable, and felt that he really shouldn't be angry just now, after all, his parents' worries were also for his own good.

Ma Dongbao got up and came to the outside of his parents' bedroom, and when he heard the two still whispering inside, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

Tang Liyun's voice immediately came from inside, "Dongbao, is there something wrong?" and then heard the sound of Tang Liyun getting out of bed.

"Mom, it's okay, you don't have to open the door. Ma Dongbao hurriedly stopped Tang Liyun, he was worried that he would not be able to apologize face-to-face.

When Tang Liyun heard this, she hurriedly stood in place, "Dongbao, what are you talking about? Mom doesn't open the door, listen." ”

"Okay, Mom, Dad, I'm here to apologize to you, I shouldn't have lost my temper with you just now. Ma Dongbao said, sobbing unconsciously.

Tang Liyun inside was surprised at first when she heard it, and then her eyes turned red, this is the first time she has heard her son apologize to herself for so many years, although she has never complained about her son in her heart. Hurriedly said loudly: "Dongbao, Mom and Dad heard it, it's okay, you go back to sleep quickly." ”

Hearing the sound of Ma Dongbao leaving, Tang Liyun returned to the bed, and at this time she sobbed unconsciously. Ma Mingyuan also heard his son's apology, and he was not used to it for a while. At this time, seeing Tang Liyun sobbing uncontrollably, he hurriedly comforted her.

Tang Liyun sobbed and said, "You were suspicious of your son just now, you see how sensible your son is now! In the future, I don't care what happens to you, no matter what my son says, I will believe him. ”

"I was afraid that he would be deceived. Ma Mingyuan argued.

"You still say, you still say?" Tang Liyun sobbed even more.

"Okay, I won't talk about it, I'll listen to you in the future, no, I'll listen to you and my son in the future, that's okay, right?" Ma Mingyuan continued to comfort Tang Liyun as he said and wiped away the tears on Tang Liyun's face with his hand.

Tang Liyun saw Ma Mingyuan wiping her tears, she looked more and more aggrieved, and she got into Ma Mingyuan's arms, sobbing even more, and her hands kept beating Ma Mingyuan's shoulders.

Ma Mingyuan had no choice but to hug Tang Liyun tightly and keep comforting her, "Isn't it a good thing for my son to apologize to us for wronging you, why are you crying so much?"

"What? People are happy. Tang Liyun said while sobbing.

"Okay, happy, happy, I've never seen you cry like this!" Ma Mingyuan muttered to himself.

Tang Liyun felt very happy when she fell into Ma Mingyuan's arms at this time, on the one hand, her son is really grown up and sensible now, on the other hand, she seems to have regained the feeling when she fell in love with Ma Mingyuan, it was so beautiful and down-to-earth at that time. Just like the feeling of being in Ma Mingyuan's arms now, so down-to-earth and happy.

This night, Tang Liyun slept in Ma Mingyuan's arms all night, and he hadn't slept so steadily for a long time. And Ma Mingyuan's arm was numb for most of the night, and he was reluctant to move, for fear of waking up the sleeping Tang Liyun. When she first got married, Tang Liyun had to sleep on her arm every night.

After Ma Dongbao in the next room apologized and returned to the room, he felt much more comfortable, and felt that Xiao Dubao was right, and he was more sensible than himself in this regard.

So Ma Dongbao immediately got up and took a bag of potato chips and handed it to Xiao Dubao, who abnormally did not answer, but muttered: "Brother Dong, in fact, I have been trying to contact my parents during this time, but there has been no result so far." ”

Ma Dongbao saw that Xiao Dubao took the initiative to tell him this, and then he found that he was much happier than Xiao Dubao. Little Dubao left his parents from birth, went away from home, became an orphan, and it is a great happiness that he has always been by his parents' side.

Ma Dongbao began to comfort Xiao Dubao, "Little Dubao, don't be too sad, it's still a long time, you can contact slowly, and I will help you in the future." ”

Xiao Dubao heard Ma Dongbao say this, nodded with satisfaction, and then said faintly: "Brother Dong, haven't you always wanted to know where I came from? Now that my memory has recovered a little, I will tell you now the origin of my background." ”

Ma Dongbao stared at Xiao Dubao in surprise, listening to him slowly talk about his life experience.
