There are many people who work hard, and the whole family is busy until more than eight o'clock in the evening, weaving the recovered tobacco leaves, and sending them into the roasting room in time before going home to rest.

After cleaning, the family sat in the yard eating fruit snacks brought back by Qi Jingtao and chatting. Listening to what Qi Jingtao said to Chen Huifen on the road, Qi Lin jumped up happily: "Brother, really go to the capital with the whole family?" ”

"None of us have been there, so this time I sent you over to study. Didn't my grandmother and my parents keep talking about Tiananmen Square in the capital and the Chairman's Memorial Hall? While my grandmother and grandmother were still in good health, we would go and see it together. These are the places that their older generation want to go to the most, and take this opportunity to go over and get their wishes. Qi Jingtao deliberately said it to his hesitant parents.

"Yes, uncle and aunt, our family Linlin is the champion, how can she go to school in the capital alone? ”

Su Min lost no time in tempting, and on the way home, Qi Jingtao told her about the whole family going to the capital, and she agreed with this plan. When she came back this time, she personally experienced the life in the countryside, and she supported Qi Jingtao's plan even more.

"Dad, I've been in college in Spring City for four years, and you haven't been to see me once, so let's go this time. Su Min is right, there are many places to see in the capital, and it will be inconvenient for grandma and grandmother to go in a few years. Qi Jingtao was moved and was still convincing his father.

"Why haven't I been to your university, a few years ago I helped your aunt manage the construction site in Spring City, and I haven't been to that part of Cuihu. ”

Qi Zhengming, who was smoking a hookah, yelled at his son, lowered his head and took a few puffs of cigarette, looked at his children and said: "Hehe, of course it's best to go to the capital to see, just go! ”

"Okay, Dad, you guys discussed, I'll go find Uncle Zhenglin and a few of them. Linlin, prepare more fruit snacks. Hearing that his father agreed, Qi Jingtao said happily and got up to go out.

"Xiao Min, have you discussed?" Qi Zhengming asked Su Min with a smile.

"Uncle, you should know that Ah Tao is not short of money now. He didn't dare to explain it to you at first, because he was afraid that you would be careful. Now that the financial burden on your family is not so heavy, it is time for you to take a break. Hehe, I really didn't expect there to be so much farm work at home, and he never told me about it before. Uncle, Linlin is the top student in the college entrance examination, how can she be allowed to do these jobs at home every day? Uncle, Linlin's future development is limitless, in addition to learning knowledge from books, she should also go out for a walk and see. It is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles. You can't let go of the farm work at home, and Ah Tao and Linlin can't let go of their minds to go outside. ”

Su Min saw and heard a lot of things today, she really didn't expect that life in the countryside was so different from that in the city. The theory of urban and rural amphibians that Qi Jingtao told him before turned out to be true. A conscientious and responsible college student from the countryside, if his place of work is near his hometown, it is impossible for him not to want to be an amphibian.

However, the city has the rhythm of the city, and the countryside has the model of the countryside. These conscientious and responsible amphibians, who will eventually integrate into urban life, have little chance of returning to the countryside, which is the trend and general trend of the times. But their pace of integration into the city is so faltering, so hesitant. They want to do both, but they can't help their families too much, and they have too much to lose in the city. By the time they came to their senses, they had lost too many opportunities to develop.

Under normal circumstances, if you compare urban and rural college students with the same starting point, the so-called urban and rural amphibians like Qi Jingtao are already in a weak position. They also want to have it both ways, which is impossible for the vast majority of people.

Yasheng Mencius said 2,000 years ago: "Fish, I want, bear's paw, also I want, you can't have both, give up fish and take bear's paw." ”

People always have to make trade-offs. Su Min knew the situation of Qi Jingtao and Qi Lin, such people are dragons and phoenixes, their hearts are too kind and innocent. They are now standing on a supreme point that is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and they are ready to spread their wings and fly high, but they dare not fly and break through as they please.

At this time, the only concern in their hearts is actually the family that gave birth to him and raised him, and the parents who are still hardworking. They are afraid, afraid that by the time they come back after becoming famous, they will already be in a situation and will no longer be able to repay their parents' nurturing grace.

Because, their big rear is really empty, too fragile, too insecure. Their parents have paid more than other families. It is not possible for their children to go home to help much, their children need to spend extra money to provide for them, and their children have to buy books and pay various expenses.

Before their children can become famous, they must dig food from the fields to support themselves while providing the logistics they can for their children to go to school. Their parents did not dare to be idle, tired, eat, clothe, sick, or even die.

Qi Zhengming silently lowered his head and smoked his hookah, and he understood the words of his future daughter-in-law. He didn't expect that his son had changed so much, no wonder he had become more and more extravagant in recent months, no wonder he still wanted to contract the valley of the Thatched River, no wonder he wanted the whole family to go to the capital. Hey, how much ability does this kid have, how much mind does he have, and how many thoughts he doesn't know have been said?

The future daughter-in-law is right, her son has solved the family's financial problems, and the situation at home has changed and is different from the past. You should let go of yourself, don't let them always worry about the acre and three points of land at home, let these little things in their eyes restrain their hands and feet, and do something big if you want to do it.

His son is too sensible to limit his development. If the conditions at home were better, if he only thought about himself, he should have developed better personally. Now, with the support of her brother, her daughter has become superior, as those people in the village said, who has ever seen a dignified female champion doing farm work at home?

The government leaders and teachers at their daughter's school who came to congratulate their home a few days ago, although they were praising their daughter for being sensible and knowing how to share their parents' worries, the look in their eyes was really wrong. Is it pity, sympathy, pity, or disdain? Qi Zhengming knew that it was definitely not appreciation, absolutely not admiration.

I really need to change my thinking and consider problems from the perspective of my children. Qi Zhengming, who thought clearly, looked at his future daughter-in-law, smiled comfortably and said: "Xiaomin, we are a family, I am happy that you can say this today." You don't see yourself as an outsider. You're right. Hehe, it is true that the perspective of rural people and you urban people is different. We can't help you outside, we just want to do our best to help you while we are still doing it, but I really didn't expect to restrain your hands and feet. ”
