Chapter 106: Liu Maosheng's Story
Through this period of contact, Liu Jingxin actually envied Liu Maosheng's character and lifestyle. It is really chic for people of such an age to have such a young mentality and be able to live the way they want.
Liu Jingxin didn't expect that even a person like Liu Maosheng would have such feelings.
"It's your daughter who came to you at dinner today, right?" asked Liu Jingxin.
Liu Maosheng nodded and said: "Yes, the little girl has grown up, it's amazing, just like her mother, she likes to make decisions for others in everything, and she doesn't care what others think." ”
"Then you're working hard, and you're under the control of two women at home. Liu Jingxin said in a joking tone.
Liu Maosheng's eyes darkened, and he sighed: "I hope it can be like this." ”
Seeing the other party's expression like this, listening to the sigh with sentimental emotion, Liu Jingxin asked suspiciously, "Isn't that so?"
Liu Maosheng said: "Jingjing's mother left early, and I brought her to grow up alone." Now that she's busy with work and the children are left to the nanny, how can she have time to take care of me?"
"I'm sorry. The mention of the dead touched people's hearts, and Liu Jingxin hurriedly apologized.
Liu Maosheng waved his hand and said, "It's okay, after so many years, I have already seen it." Alas, looking back on my life, it was actually quite boring. I came out of a mountain village......"
Liu Maosheng was born in a very remote mountain village, and it was already a high degree to be able to go to high school at that time, but his parents had dealt with many educated youths, and they also went outside to do business for a few years, and had some vision.
He was very competitive, not only was he admitted to high school, but also in the era of extremely low admission rate, he was admitted to the Department of Mathematics and Physics of Kyoto Normal University, and finally, with the unconditional support of his family and his own efforts, he left the mountains, changed the fate of poverty, and embarked on a path that surpassed many people.
During college, Liu Maosheng fell in love with a Kyoto girl in his class, and after graduation, the two got married and gave birth to a daughter named Liu Jingjing.
Originally, life was developing in a good direction, but the good times did not last long, Liu Maosheng's wife had a serious illness, Liu Maosheng emptied his savings and borrowed a lot of money, but he still failed to keep his wife.
Since then, Liu Maosheng has survived alone and struggled, and after so many years, he finally raised his daughter to adulthood.
Liu Jingjing was very competitive, first admitted to Kyoto University, and then obtained a master's degree from the university, studied abroad for two years at public expense, and then entered a state-owned enterprise after returning, and became an executive through hard work, and also had her own family.
Finally survived to this day, Liu Maosheng thought that he could finally use the rest of his life to live for himself, but his daughter suddenly received an assignment to go to Australia to take charge of the work of the branch, which means that their whole family has to move to Australia, and they don't know when they will come back.
Although Liu Maosheng's father and daughter quarrel as soon as they meet, Liu Jingjing still cares about Liu Maosheng very much, and naturally does not want to leave Liu Maosheng alone in China, hoping to bring Liu Maosheng to Australia to live together.
But accustomed to life in China, Liu Maosheng doesn't want to go to Australia, he will be lonely if he has no friends in Australia, and he must be very unaccustomed to eating, the most important thing is that he will feel completely dependent on his daughter, and he will seem to be very useless.
How can a person who has been in this family for most of his life be willing to go to a foreign country to send someone under the fence? Even if that person is his biological daughter.
In this matter, neither father nor daughter refused to give in, and in the end, they naturally became more and more noisy, and now it has reached the point where water and fire are incompatible.
Today, the reason why Liu Jingjing came to school is because Liu Maosheng sent her a message and invited her daughter to watch her father's performance.
Seeing that it was about to reach the arrival time required by the company, Liu Jingjing wanted to ease the relationship with her father, and wanted to find a suitable opportunity to reason with her father calmly, hoping to talk to her stubborn father. But she inquired all the way to the cafeteria today, but saw her father dressed as a "bad old man", and she couldn't control her anger on the spot.
So, there was the scene that Liu Jingxin saw them.
"When I was a child, I tried to live as my parents wanted, and left the mountains and came to Kyoto; after I got married, she left early, and I followed her instructions, even if the conditions were so difficult, I still pulled my daughter to adulthood; now, I thought that I could finally live my life the way I liked, and the little girl was going to make the decision for me, and she wanted to take me to a completely strange place. Tell me, little brother, why do people have to live for others in this life, why can't they live for themselves once?"
Liu Jingxin pondered for a moment and said: "Because we can't let go of these feelings, and because life is like this, right?"
"Haha......" Liu Maosheng suddenly laughed: "Do you know why we are so many years apart, do I still like to call you brothers? Because I think we are too similar in many places." It's a pleasure to talk to you, and I'm not tired at all. ”
Liu Jingxin smiled helplessly: "Do you mean that I am declining before I get old, or do you praise yourself for being young?"
Speaking of this, Liu Jingxin suddenly remembered something, so he asked: "Brother, you have put so much effort into preparing for today's performance, does it have anything to do with the fact that your daughter is going to take you to Australia?"
Liu Maosheng didn't hide it this time, nodded and said: "Of course it matters, I just want the little girl to take a good look, her father and I live a chic life in China, I can arrange everything myself, I don't need her to worry about it, even if I don't follow her to Australia, I can live well." ”
No wonder Liu Jingjing would say something like "Are you making this interesting", it turned out to be like this.
Liu Maosheng just wants to prove that he is not old enough to need to be taken care of in this way, wants to prove that he has an amateur life circle that is not lost to young people, and wants to prove that he can live happily in China.
But in Liu Jingjing's opinion, all this should be regarded as a farce, right?
Liu Jingxin said: "Brother, with all due respect. I'm afraid that no matter how successful your performance is today, it won't be able to change your daughter's decision, and she will definitely not be at ease that you are alone in the country. ”
Liu Maosheng immediately glared and said: "The legs are on me, I can't say no, can she still kidnap me?" Anyway, in this matter, we don't have to discuss." ”
Zhang Xun is right, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. Liu Jingxin is an outsider and can't follow the blind association, so he won't discuss it anymore.
Glancing at the time, the party is about to start.
Liu Jingxin said: "It's time to go back." ”
Liu Maosheng got up and patted the ash on his pants, and walked towards the student activity center with Liu Jingxin.
