Chapter 480: Zuo Xiuqi's Story
Knock knock!
Batu wiped his hair and opened the door, only to see Cao Wu standing outside the door.
"Do you still have cigarettes there?" Cao Wu asked when he saw him.
"No, Qingsong has it. Batu saw that he didn't look right, so he asked, "What's the matter?"
"Nothing. Cao Wu shook his head and knocked on Qingsong's door.
Zuo Xiuqi opened the door, but saw that it was Cao Wu, so he hurriedly let him in.
Zuo Xiuqi is the assistant assigned to Lu Qingsong by the company this time, and he is on the same trip with Lu Qingsong.
Lu Qingsong will not be short of cigarettes here, Cao Wu came to the table and took out a cigarette to light it, sat down on the sofa, and let out a long breath.
"What's wrong?" Lu Qingsong looked at him and asked, the door rang again, and it was Batu who knocked on it.
Zuo Xiuqi went to open the door, and Batu came in in his pajamas and asked, "What's the matter?
"It's a bit disturbing at home. Cao Wu rubbed his temples.
"Is it green at home?" asked Batu, sitting cross-legged on the bed.
"Nope. Cao Wu shook his head and said, "It's my mother's business." ”
"Auntie is sick?" Lu Qingsong asked.
"It's not. Cao Wu flicked the cigarette ash and said, "When I got married, the relatives who came were all from my father's side, and no one from my mother's side came, don't you still ask?"
"That's right!" Batu came out with a cigarette.
"Actually, my mother was given to my aunt by my grandmother when she was a child. Cao Wu took a puff of cigarette and said, "After my aunt passed away, my grandmother wanted to recognize my mother again, but my mother didn't want to, and she hasn't been in contact for so many years." ”
"I just learned that my grandmother had passed away, and my mom and dad were going back to mourn. So I'm a little unsure whether I should go back or not. ”
"Of course you have to go back?" Batuu blurted out.
Cao Wu shook his head and said, "I also want to rush back, but my mother won't let me." ”
"Why?" asked Batu, puzzled
"Alas......" Cao Wu sighed and said, "I don't have any relationship with my grandmother, and my mother doesn't have any relationship with her, although there are a few relatives over there, but they haven't had any contact for so many years." I knew what my mom was worried about, she was afraid that my past would affect me. ”
"What impact can this have?" said Batuu, but stopped again.
has been in the circle for so many years, he has heard too many strange things, if it is relatives who have never dealt with each other, they don't know each other's roots, they don't know the bottom, it's better not to take it for granted.
Lu Qingsong crossed his arms and asked, "Then what do you think yourself?"
Cao Wu was a little embarrassed and said: "I feel, in the end, it's still my grandmother, if I don't know, it's okay, but now that I know, if I don't take a look, I can't say anything." But what my mother means is that people are already gone, and it doesn't make a difference whether they go or not, and I'm abroad, so there's no need to rush like this. Besides, she doesn't know what the situation is over there, so it's best not to be too rash and delay things. ”
Batu muttered: "The notice has been arranged, and the breach of contract is indeed quite troublesome, but I still feel good to go back." ”
Lu Qingsong thought for a while and said: "It's up to you, since you have no feelings, it doesn't matter if you don't go back or not, but I have the same opinion as Batu, it's good to go back, so as not to leave regrets." ”
Cao Wu nodded, thinking silently.
Suddenly, Zuo Xiuqi, the assistant on the side, spoke: "That...... Can I tell me something, it feels a bit similar to Brother Cao's experience, and I can make a reference. ”
Cao Wu was a little puzzled, but still nodded and said, "You say." ”
"My cousin got married last year. Zuo Xiuqi paused, and said while recalling: "When I was young, I used to play with my cousin, she was my follower, and I often carried her around the village behind my back at that time. ”
"I remember when I was about nine years old, my grandfather died, and I kept a wake for my grandfather. That night, my parents, my aunt and uncle all went to the old house and asked me to stay outside and wait for them. ”
"I heard them talk about the old house, and my aunt said that if they wanted to divide the family, the old house would belong to them. I can't remember exactly what they argued about, except that my dad agreed, and then my mom came out in a rage and took me away. ”
"I didn't understand it at the time, but it was the first time I saw them fight like that, and I was a little overwhelmed. ”
"Later, our two families broke off contact, and my mother also told me a lot, all of which were old people's partiality, a bowl of water was uneven, and she broke out that day, also because of a long-standing grudge. ”
"I thought it was all a family, so there was no need to worry about it, but my mother talked too much, and I began to hate my uncle and his family, feeling that they had robbed our family of a lot of things, and slowly stopped going to their house, and I didn't contact my cousin anymore. ”
"Over the years, I've only been to their house three times, and each time I had to go, and after I went, I would sit for a while and leave, and I wouldn't drink any water. ”
"But over the years, my mother may be getting older, and some things have slowly been thought about, and she sometimes thinks about it, and I was angry with my uncle and their family back then, and the more reason is actually because my father didn't say anything when the old man was partial to my uncle, and sometimes he was angry with my uncle, and she was angry about this. ”
"My dad also said that he was watching his uncle take care of the elderly at home, and he didn't want to go. ”
"Last year, my uncle and my aunt came to my house to deliver invitations to my cousin's wedding, and my parents said yes, but I said I was busy with work and didn't want to go. ”
"My mom still counted me down, saying that she was slowly letting go of herself, and I was getting more and more drilly. ”
"Later, under the pressure of my parents, I went to the wedding. ”
"My cousin was crazy with joy when she saw me coming, and she held me around and kept talking. ”
"When I sent the bride, I carried her out on my back, and she was like a child, lying on my back, and she was very happy to tell me that it was the happiest day of her life. ”
"After that time, I felt relieved and somewhat understanding of my dad. My uncle went to school and farmed at home, and the harvest was not good in those years, and my eldest brother was the father, and my father didn't want to fight for anything......"
Seeing that Cao Wu was deep in thought, Zuo Xiuqi continued: "So, people will always change with time, some things that I cared about before, maybe after a while, they will be relieved, and my advice is the same, Brother Cao It's better to go back to avoid regrets." ”
Cao Wu made up his mind, nodded and said, "You help me book the nearest flight, and I'll call Frank." ”
Frank complained about this, but in the end he respected Cao Wu's opinion, and at four o'clock in the morning, Cao Wu took the flight back to China.
