Liu Bufan waded back to his hometown, the familiar environment once again evoked the memory stretched out in his heart, he has lived in the big city for a long time, and he still misses this small mountain village that raised him for more than ten years.

Liu Bufan came to a dilapidated brick and earth brick-roofed house, this is his real home, the broken wooden door is half-hidden, just enter the door, he heard his father's cough, he put down his luggage, into the room, his father is lying on a wooden bed, covered with an old quilt, his mother is sitting on the edge of the bed to take care of his father.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back!" Liu Bufan called cordially.

The father, who was lying on the bed, looked over here after hearing Liu Bufan's voice, supported the bed board with both hands, tried his best to struggle, and said in surprise: "Fan'er, why did you come back?"

The mother was a little calm, turned her head to look at Liu Bufan, and said kindly: "Xiaofan, you are back!"

"Dad, Mom, I'm on vacation, I miss you, I'll go home and see you!" Liu Bufan said with a happy smile.

"It's not the end of the year yet, why are you on vacation, and honestly, did you sneak back?" the father didn't seem happy, but asked him.

"Dad, I haven't had a vacation for almost a year, and the unit specially approved me for leave, so I went home. ”

Liu Bufan didn't want to tell his mother about writing a letter, otherwise his father would definitely blame his mother, so he lied.

"Nonsense, if you either sneak back by yourself or be fired from your company, this is a month before the Chinese New Year, how can your boss give you a holiday in advance?" The father still didn't believe Liu Bufan's lies, and asked again.

"Really, Dad, don't worry, I just come back from a normal vacation, and I'll go back to work in a few days. Liu Bufan covered up again.

"Daddy, it's rare for Xiaofan to come back, or come back to visit us, can't you be happy, why are you so angry?" the mother complained to her father on the side.

"Women, what do you know, Fan'er is the hope of our family, our family will all count on him in the future, he has to focus on his career now, we can't hold him back, do you understand?" the father glared at the mother and reproached.

"Dad, what do you say, we are all a family, what are you holding back! I am working hard outside, and I have lived up to your expectations, and when I develop well in the city, I will take our family to live in the city. ”

Liu Bufan understands his parents' love and expectations for him, and also expresses his heart.

"Okay, this is my good man, I know that you will live up to our expectations and will definitely make a career. Father was finally a little happier and complimented.

"Dad, don't talk about me, what's going on with your body, why are you lying on the bed?" asked Liu Bufan.

"It's okay, it's just a little illness, and it will be fine in two days. Father said with a smirk.

"Where is a minor illness, I still lie in front of the child, and I can't move. Mother interjected.

"Shut up, woman, what nonsense. Fan'er, I'm fine, don't listen to your mother's nonsense, I'm really fine. The father scolded the mother loudly, and then hurriedly comforted Liu Bufan.

Liu Bufan walked straight to the side of the bed and lifted the quilt hard, revealing his father's huge red and swollen instep, which had been partially filled with pus, which looked very scary.

"Fan'er, don't ......"

His father tried his best to stop Liu Bufan's movements, but he still couldn't make him stop.

Liu Bufan looked at his father's legs, with a sad expression on his face, and felt very uncomfortable, how much pain and torture his father endured in order not to delay his work, and he didn't even let his mother tell him, this is equivalent to stripping his flesh.

"Dad, your legs are like this, how long are you going to hide it from me? If you don't go to the hospital again, your leg will have to be amputated, do you want to spend your whole life in bed?" Liu Bufan said distressedly.

"Fan'er, Dad is fine, it's a big deal that my legs don't want to go, but Dad can't drag you down, you just need to work wholeheartedly in the city and strive to get ahead as soon as possible. The father also comforted.

"Dad, what are you talking about, do I have to work without regard for our whole family? What is the point of my work? If you want to exchange your health and safety for my success in my work, then I would rather not have this success. Liu Bufan argued loudly.

"Nonsense, are you trying to me off? How can you say such a thing? We have worked so hard to confess to you, and we don't ask for anything. The father slapped the bed board and scolded loudly.

"Dad, I am your son, you are sick, I should take care of you, if I even lose this filial piety, then I have read so many years of books in vain? I can't do such a ruthless and unrighteous thing, don't worry, I will definitely heal your leg, and tomorrow I will send you to the county hospital for treatment." Liu Bufan said excitedly.

"I'm not going, Fan'er, let's not spend that unjust money, you save all the money, there are still more places for our family to use the money, and there are more places for you to use the money outside, you keep it for yourself." The father didn't argue loudly anymore, and then turned into begging Liu Bufan.

"Dad, I have money, I'll find a way to deal with our family's money, it's urgent to treat your leg, it can't be delayed any longer, if it drags on any longer, it will really be cured, even if I beg you." Liu Bufan also began to beg his father.

"What can you do, now, your career is still in the stage of hard work, the money you have from there, Fan'er, let me tell you, although our family is poor, but we can't do those illegal things, if I let me know that you are messing around outside and making money, then I will die, and I will not forgive you." ”

When his father heard that Liu Bufan was rich, he refused to believe it, but educated him.

"Dad, where did you go, you taught me since I was a child, although our family is poor, but we must have ambition, we can't be looked down upon, your son is also a person who has read books, and knows how to abide by the law, how can he do those things that violate the law and discipline? Liu Bufan explained.

"I hope so, but you've only been working for a few years, how much money can you earn back, you don't know, our family still owes foreign debts, if those people know that you are back, they will definitely come to the door tomorrow to collect debts, Fan'er, let's go quickly, go outside and hide first." The father became worried again and persuaded him.

"Dad, don't worry, my son brought back 150,000 yuan this time, I will take 50,000 yuan out to treat you, and the remaining 100,000 yuan will be used to pay off the debt, although it is not enough to pay off all the arrears, but it can reduce the burden, and I will make it clear to those uncles and uncles about the remaining arrears, and pay them back as planned." Liu Bufan said with confidence.

"Fan'er, where did you get so much money? Didn't I just tell you that you wouldn't really do ......," said my father in astonishment.

"Dad, don't think about it, these are my wages for working outside, as well as bonuses, my current boss in this unit values me very much, and I have also made a lot of contributions to the company, most of which are rewards given to me by my boss. Liu Bufan comforted.

"Okay, my son has a chance, Fan'er, continue to work hard, don't live up to your boss's trust in you. ”

"Dad, don't worry, I will. Let's continue to talk about your leg, and you will go to the county seat with me tomorrow for treatment, okay?"

"This ......"

"Daddy, don't think about it anymore, this is a piece of filial piety of Fan'er, you just listen to him, and if your leg is not healed, who will we go to for our family's rations in the future?"

"This ......"

"Okay, Dad, this matter is settled, tomorrow I will contact the motorcycle in the village and find someone to send you to the county seat. ”

"Fan'er, thank you for your hard work. ”

"Dad, we are a family, this is how it should be, my younger brothers and sisters haven't come back from school yet, right?" asked Liu Bufan.

"Well, it should be soon, they are studying in the school in the neighboring village, and it takes more than an hour to walk back, Fan'er, are you hungry, Mom will go and cook you something to eat first, right?" asked the mother with concern.

"Mom, I'm not hungry, let's wait for my younger siblings to come back and cook together." ”

"You kid, you should be very tired all the way back, Mom sees that you have lost weight. ”

"Mom, although I have lost some weight, my body is much better, you see, the flesh on my body is much stronger. ”

Liu Bufan said with a smile, patted his chest, bowed his arms, and showed his bulging biceps.

The mother didn't say much, but smiled kindly.

At about 7 o'clock in the evening, Liu Bufan's younger brothers and sisters returned home, and when they saw Liu Bufan coming back, they all happily pounced on him, hugged him and said, "Brother, you are back, we miss you so much!"

Liu Bufan hugged the two of them, touched their heads, and said, "Xiaojun, Xiaofang, brother misses you too, brother brought you a gift back." ”

"Brother, what kind of gift, I want to see it!" Xiao Jun shouted first.

"Brother, I want it too!" Xiao Fang also shouted.

"You all have. ”

Liu Bufan walked to the place where he put his backpack, rummaged in it, took out some books and stationery, came to Xiaojun and Xiaofang, and said: "Xiaojun, these are some books that my brother bought for you in the big city, suitable for your use, these books can't be bought in our county, I specially found them for you; ”

Liu Bufan distributed the books and stationery he bought back to Xiaojun and Xiaofang.

After the two of them got Liu Bufan's books and stationery, their faces were filled with happy smiles and said, "Thank you, brother!"

"No, why are you spending money again, why are you buying them such good things?" said my father in bed.

"Dad, this is all small money, just my younger brothers and sisters can use it, if you can help them in their studies, these costs are worth it, we are a backward small mountain village, education is backward, and their resources are scarce, and the completion is not as good as in the city. I don't want my younger siblings to be like me, if I can help them a little more, maybe they will be much better than me and can reach a higher platform than me!" Liu Bufan explained.

"Daddy, Xiaofan has seen the world outside and knows more than us, so don't talk about him. Mother said.

"Women, cook your food. ”

Liu Bufan went to tutor Xiaojun and Xiaofang to study, while his mother went to cook.

In the evening, the family got together and had a happy meal, which was the first reunion of the family this year, and the atmosphere at home became joyful and relaxed due to Liu Bufan's return.
