"Jingle Bell ~ Jingle Bell ~"

Deadwood was desperately lying on the bed, wanting to be quiet, the phone rang, rang at an inopportune time, and the upset Deadwood, as soon as he grabbed his mobile phone, he was about to hang up the phone, but with a glance of his eyes, he saw the mobile phone number of the caller ID.

Instantly stunned!

Deadwood stared blankly at the caller ID on the phone screen, motionless and overwhelmed.

Time seems to freeze.

I don't know how long I was silent, but the phone ringtone still kept ringing.

Deadwood took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it.

Then, reaching out from the tissue box on the bedside table, he pulled out a tissue, wiped the tears on his cheeks, pressed the answer button, pressed the phone tightly to his ear, and shouted into the phone with trembling lips:

"Dad. ”

"Baby, the weather forecast says that you will have to cool down significantly, wear more clothes when you go out, and buy some new ones if you don't have clothes, don't be reluctant to spend money, don't freeze. ”

The father's kind and kind, warm familiar voice came out of the phone, touched the dead wood, hidden the weakest part of the heart, wiped away the tears, and flowed down again.

Deadwood raised his arm, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with the corner of his sleeve, and said calmly: "Dad, I know, I have thick clothes, and with your son's body size of two hundred pounds, he can't freeze." ”

"No matter how fat you are, you are a person, and if you wear less, it will be cold. The father said kindly, "Baby, which thick dress did you take?"

"Just that coat, the gray one, the one I bought for the New Year. Deadwood struggled to control himself, holding back tears.

"The gray coat for the New Year??? you wore a red leather coat for the New Year this year, I remember the black down jacket for the New Year last year, and the gray coat you wore for the New Year the year before last?" asked his father unconfirmed.

"Dad, I can't remember exactly what year it was, anyway, it's the gray coat I wore during the New Year. ”

Deadwood choked up a little, his clothes, his father remembered them so clearly, and he still cared so much about himself, as always. Thinking of my parents who face the loess with their backs to the sky and have worked hard all their lives.

Thinking of saving money and frugality, the parents who are bent on saving money for themselves to marry their daughters-in-law.

Thinking of his elderly parents in his hometown, whose hair has turned gray, the heart of the dead wood is as painful as if it has been pricked by a needle.

"Dad, I'm sorry, the child is not filial. You two have worked hard for me all your life, seeing you get old, the two of you are getting old day by day, the child is in his twenties, he has achieved nothing, and now he still owes a lot of debt, and he can't take care of it, I am really a waste. ”

"What's wrong, baby, why is your voice a little wrong, like crying. Father heard that something was wrong and asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's okay, I had a little cold two days ago, and my throat wasn't very comfortable. Deadwood tried his best to control his voice, and made a random excuse.

"Pay attention to your body outside, take care of yourself, you see you all have a cold, right?

"Dad, I'm fine, the cold has been cured, but my throat is still a little uncomfortable. Deadwood was afraid that his father would be worried, so he quickly explained.

"It's okay, take care of yourself outside, eat and dress well. When my father heard that he was cured, his tone softened: "I remember that your gray coat can't be buttoned, your stomach is easy to catch a cold, and you've been wearing it for two years, it's a little old, buy a new dress! Don't be reluctant to spend money, it's not enough for Dad to go to town tomorrow to give you some money." ”

"It's okay, Dad, I can take care of myself. I didn't ask my family for money since I was in high school, but now that I have a job, I can still ask my family for money. Deadwood tried to pretend that nothing had happened and said to his father, "By the way, Dad, what about my mother?

"Hey, it's cooled down in the past two days, and your mother's leg is starting to hurt again, so I drank some pain tablets and fell asleep. ”

At the mention of his mother, his father sighed. My mother's illness has been some years, and my legs hurt when the weather is cold, but I usually feel better, but I can't squat, and I can't walk when the pain is severe. At the beginning, I went to the town hospital, the county hospital, and the city hospital, and I couldn't find out the root of the disease, and my father still wanted to take my mother to a bigger city to see, but my mother was afraid of spending money, so she accepted her fate, and usually endured the pain when it was not serious, and when the pain was severe, I drank a few pain tablets to sleep, and I didn't feel the pain when I fell asleep.

Deadwood heard that his mother was suffering from illness and suffering, and thought of his current situation, not only could he not reduce the burden on his family, but he was too busy to take care of himself, and Deadwood's heart was dripping blood. Raised his slap and shook himself in the mouth.

Hate yourself for being incompetent,

It's useless to hate yourself,

Hate yourself.

"Baby, don't worry, your mother has been sick for several years, and she has long been used to it, as long as you are more competitive than anything else. The father was afraid of the dead wood and worried, so he hurriedly comforted: "As long as you live well, it is worth it for your parents to suffer no matter how much they suffer." ”

"Dad, I must work hard to make money so that you can live a good life. Deadwood said unusually firmly.

Deadwood listened to his father's words, thinking that his parents, who were already full of silver hair in his hometown, were still suffering, and the violent pain ingested his heart, and his heart was painful.

"Baby, how are you doing? How are you doing that beauty and health shop?" Hearing this, the father was worried about putting too much pressure on the dead wood, so he hurriedly changed the topic, but he didn't know that he was poking at the sore spot of the dead wood.

"Dad, it's okay, it's fine. Deadwood didn't want to deceive his father, and he was afraid that his father would worry, so he said with a nervous heart.

"By the way, Dad, what's going on at home lately?"

Deadwood didn't want to talk more about the beauty and health store, he would lose if he said too much, for fear that he would talk too much and worry his parents, so he quickly changed the topic.

"The family is very good, just me and your mother, nothing is wrong. The walnuts in the field have a good harvest this year, and let people bring you a bag in two days, but this year is very strange, no one has come to harvest walnuts, usually when it is still green skin, the walnuts are harvested, this year the walnuts are all melted and dried, and no one has come to collect them. Now the walnut trees are basically planted in the field, and nothing else can be planted, and some corn is planted in the remaining few acres of land, but there is no water in the drought, and there is no harvest of corn cobs. The father chattered about the situation at home, and the dead wood listened quietly, with mixed feelings in his heart.

"Dad, if the corn harvest is not good, it is not good, and there is no way to do it in the drought, how many count. Walnuts used to be few, people rushed to come to harvest it, since the township policy came down, every household is planted with walnut saplings, now the walnut trees have grown, who does not have a thousand eight hundred pounds of walnuts, too many walnuts will not eat fragrant, walnut dealers are estimated to be waiting for the price to be harvested. Deadwood said.

"Hey, now I can't do the crop work, and I can't get the money after all year of hard work, so it's better to find work outside. Corn and wheat are worthless, walnut trees are basically planted in the field, nothing else can be planted, and walnuts cannot be sold at a good price. ”

The father sighed and said helplessly:

"Your mother is resting at home if she has a bad leg, and I will ask in two days, and when I see that there is a suitable job outside, I will go out to do it." ”

"Dad, I'm useless, let you both suffer. When I make money, I will take you and my mother to the city, and we will be together as a family every day, so that you can enjoy the blessings of the two of you. Deadwood said, his eyes moistening again.

"It doesn't matter if you enjoy the blessings or not, as long as you live well, don't know how to make money every day, it's time to find a daughter-in-law, the boss is not small, your mother and I are looking forward to holding our grandson." Father said earnestly.

"Dad, isn't it inappropriate, and I'm still young, and everyone in the city is in their thirties before getting married. Deadwood lowered his head in embarrassment.

There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. As soon as I graduated from college, my parents looked forward to the stars and the moon every day, looked forward to the dead wood marrying a daughter-in-law and starting a family as soon as possible, and looked forward to hugging a big fat boy. It's a pity that Deadwood is an honest pimple, not very good at talking and won't make the girl happy, and he is from the village, his family is not good, and he has achieved nothing, to be honest, Deadwood has always been a little inferior, afraid of delaying and harming other girls, so he wants to make a living first and then seek love, work hard, struggle to make a name, make money and have capital and then talk about the object.

It's a pity that I have struggled for five or six years, and now I have been deceived and bankrupt and in debt, so I have been single.

"Hmph, where are you still young? The children of your age in our village are in the first grade. Getting married in the city in your thirties doesn't mean that people haven't talked about anyone all the time, so if you don't hurry up to find a daughter-in-law, just wait to go home and arrange a blind date for you. Father said with a little hatred of iron and steel.

"Dad, I'm working hard, I'm going to work hard. Deadwood said a little weakly.

……

Chatting with his father, Deadwood gradually adjusted his emotions, especially cherished this opportunity to talk, and chatted with his father with or without a match.

"Deadwood, my mother said that you don't live anymore, you have to move tomorrow, have you cleaned up?" When I was talking with my father, the unruly landlord brother directly pushed open the door and walked in, saying as he walked: "Deadwood, it's nothing to be deceived, you must not think about doing stupid things, how do you say that, there are nine times out of ten that people who are unsatisfactory in life, who hasn't encountered something yet, and it will pass after a while." ”

"Shhh~" Deadwood saw that the landlord's eldest brother was still unsatisfied, and wanted to continue, but he was afraid that his father would hear and worry, so he hurriedly covered his mobile phone, raised his arm, clenched his fist, stretched out his index finger, and made a shushing gesture in front of his lips.

"By the way, what are you going to do next? Have you found a job? I have an aunt who is recruiting people in a restaurant, and you want to go and I will help you ask, you have no money now, and the hotel will take care of food and housing, so you don't have to worry about food and housing." The big landlord didn't seem to notice the small movements of the dead wood, and talked to himself.

"Baby, what's the situation?Why do you want to move?Why did you get cheated??Why do you still have to find a job??? didn't you get that beauty and health shop?" The father was obviously a little emotional, and asked like a cannonball.

"Dad, I have something to do here, let's hang up for a while. Deadwood hurriedly hung up the phone, and his eyes were dark: "It's over, Dad heard it all." ”
