Xu Xincheng looked at the time, 21:36, it's not too late, parents should still be reading at this time, grandma has been with the second uncle for the past two days, don't worry about affecting her old man's rest.

He turned the chair to face his hometown before making a video call to his mother.

"Mom, you haven't slept yet, have you?"

"Not yet. Look at where you are now, are you still working overtime at the company?" asked my mother with concern.

"Yes. But I'm done with it, and I'm almost back. ”

"Oops! You've been working overtime a lot, and in the past month or two, every time you call at night, you've been working overtime in the company. But you have to pay attention to your body!"

"Don't worry! I will. Xu Xincheng said softly, and his heart suddenly felt warm.

The mother said with more concern: "Mom knows that you have just been promoted again, you should perform well and do more for the company, but the body is the capital of the revolution, and if the body is tired, not only will you suffer, but you will not be able to do your job well." ”

"I'm in good health! Don't worry about me! But you're right, your body is the most important thing. Next, I will gradually reduce the amount of overtime I spend and increase the amount of time I spend resting and exercising. ”

"That's good. Mother said with relief.

"That's right, Mom. I just bought some more things online for my home. ”

"Buying something again?"

"I received last month's salary today, and as I told you before, this time my salary is much higher than before, so I thought about buying some more things for my family. ”

"Didn't buy much, did you?"

"Not much. I bought an LCD TV, a refrigerator, and a mattress and matching wooden beds, sheets, pillows, quilt covers, etc. ”

The mother was a little surprised and said, "Ah! It's not much! It's too much! It's a lot of money, right?"

"Not much, really. Moreover, those are the things that are most needed at home and should be bought. ”

My mother and father discussed in a low voice for a while, and then said: "It's time to change the TV at home, as for the refrigerator, the refrigerator is not really needed, and those mattresses, wooden beds and whatnot, even less need, our bed is quite easy to use." You hurry up and get rid of all the things you don't need. ”

My father, who had only been listening to the sidelines, also interjected: "Yes, everything else will be returned, and the TV will be left behind." ”

Xu Xincheng knew that his parents would be like this, so he "bought it first and then played it", and then told them after buying it.

"Everything has been bought, everything has been paid, and it is difficult to return. Dad, Mom, you look at our neighbors, almost every house has a refrigerator, and a refrigerator is a must. As for your old bed, it's too old and should be replaced. Not to mention the old mattress, which was already damaged in many places. ”

Mother and father discussed in a low voice for a while, "Otherwise, the refrigerator can be left, but the wooden bed or something, I still don't want it." We've been using that bed for more than 20 years, and it's a little old, but we really can't bear to replace it. ”

Xu Xincheng felt that he also slept in that bed when he was young, and it was normal and understandable for his parents to have feelings for that bed. However, in the past two or three years, my parents' back has not been so good, and I must use a better waist support mattress.

He thought about it very seriously, and soon came up with a compromise plan, the wooden bed, quilt covers, sheets, etc. were returned, but the mattress had to be bought, and the mattress could be placed on the old wooden bed, although it would look a little strange, but there was no way out. In addition, sleep pillows must also be bought.

In doing so, he not only fulfilled his filial piety, but also took care of the feelings of his parents.

One of the most important ways of filial piety is to "enjoy one's heart and not go against one's will," which is to make one's parents happy without going against their wishes; and to practice "filial piety" and "obey" one's parents' wishes.

So, Xu Xincheng told his parents about this new plan, and specially explained in detail the benefits of mattress sleep and waist support, and the benefits of pillow sleep and neck support, and finally, his parents happily accepted this new plan. His parents are very open-minded and understanding, and they know that their son is filial piety, for the sake of their health, and if they don't accept it, it will ruin his happiness.

As for the price of those things, he has always only said that they are not expensive.

Every time he buys a valuable and large item for his family, such as a fully automatic washing machine he bought last month, the recipient he fills in is his cousin. My cousin's house is very close to theirs, and whenever this happens, I ask him for help.

In addition to helping to sign for the items, place the items, and teach the parents how to use them, his most important duty is to take the list of items and not let the parents see the price of the goods marked on it.

These are all trivial things, but the real filial piety is in these little things.

Xu Xincheng chatted with his parents about his grandmother's situation for a while, and discussed buying some better items for his grandmother, such as a better wheelchair, a better mattress, and better nutritional products. However, these things cannot be settled for the time being, and I have to ask my mother to discuss with the doctor first, and let him give advice before taking action.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Xincheng still sat in the direction of his hometown, thinking about his parents and grandmother at home, thinking about the family room of only 60 square meters that has been lived in for more than 20 years, thinking about the simple decoration and simple furniture and household appliances at home, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and felt uncomfortable for a while.

He took a deep breath, and a decision was made in his mind: "The rest of the money can't be spent indiscriminately, it must be all saved, and for the time being, I don't think about any investment and financial management, and make a fixed deposit directly in the bank." I want to save all my salary and quarterly bonus for the next six months, and after half a year, I can buy an elevator apartment for my parents and grandmother. ”

Yes, in just half a year, you can realize an ideal you set when you were young, the ideal of buying a house for your parents. If it was the previous salary, it would take at least five or six years to realize this ideal, but now it is different, with the current salary of the chairman's senior assistant, it only takes five or six months to achieve, and moreover, it is a better and bigger house.

In fact, he already had a preliminary idea last month, he wanted to buy the best apartment in the best real estate in his hometown, in the elevator apartment building there, with a usable area of about 150 square meters, and then decorate it well, equipped with the best furniture and electrical appliances.

Thinking of this, Xu Xincheng couldn't help but feel excited, and his face couldn't help but show an excited and happy smile, but with a smile and a smile, his eyes began to shine with crystal tears.

He said to himself in his heart: "It's time for my parents and grandmothers who have worked hard all their lives to enjoy themselves, and from now on, I want to give them the best life." ”
