Chapter 471: The incomprehensible confusion in my heart

...... "Xiaodong, come in!" It's so cold, don't stand outside! Song Xiangmei greeted her son.

"Got it, Mom?"

After nodding, Liu Dong stepped over the second floor of the main entrance of the hall, pushed open the faded wooden door and walked into the house, first of all, there was a familiar living room of thirty square meters.

In the middle of the living room is a central hall, which is the handwriting of my father. In front of the nave is an orange table of eight immortals, with two chairs on each side.

There is also a foldable dining table and benches next to it, and a sewing machine in the left-hand corner, but there is no other furniture.

Like sofas, coffee tables, TVs, fans, etc., the standard configuration of the living room of urban people, Liu Dong's house does not have it. The only radio, which was the only big one, had long since lost any signal.

In the adjacent position of the living room, there are four doors, the first room on the left hand is the parents' bedroom, and next to it is the utility room, where some flour, steamed steamed buns, and the books that Liu Dong and his sister used to go to school and so on.

The two rooms on the right, the first one is the largest and most important study room in the family, adjacent to it is the boudoir of my sister Liu Fei, and Liu Dong's room is in the wing room!

"Mom and Dad, you don't have a stove?" After entering the door, feeling the same temperature inside and outside the house, Liu Dong said distressedly.

You must know that it is now mid-December, and in a few days it will be the winter solstice, and the temperature outside has reached minus three or four degrees, and even in January, the temperature will drop below minus ten degrees, for the northern mountain-east. It's already very cold!

And. Mom and Dad don't look like they've practiced kung fu themselves. In addition, he is older, and his resistance to the cold is far less strong than his own.

After listening to Liu Dong's words, Liu's mother smiled, "You and Fei Fei are not at home, and your father and I live at school half of the time, isn't it a waste to have a stove at home?" ”

"yes, besides, it's not too cold, and you don't need a stove!" Liu Jianqing echoed.

But. No matter how much explanation there is, it is actually only because they would rather suffer themselves and leave the money to Liu Dong and Liu Fei.

Liu Dong has experienced this kind of thing countless times since he was a child, and although he knew that his parents were tired, he had never experienced the selfless love in his parents' hearts as deeply as now!

"Phew!" Taking a deep breath, Liu Dong vigorously held back the tears that had reached the corners of his eyes.

"Mom and Dad, you do it first, I'll go get the things in the car!"

"I'll go with you!"

"No need. Mother! I can do it on my own! Liu Dong hurriedly stopped his mother and walked out alone. He didn't want his parents to see him cry!

Looking at his son's back, which was taller and stronger than himself, Liu Jianqing nodded with satisfaction, "My son has grown up and is much more sensible than before!" ”

"Over the years, he must have suffered a lot outside alone!" Song Xiangmei covered her mouth and said in a somewhat choked tone.

"Oops, what are you crying about! Isn't my son doing well now? Besides, he is a boy, if he is not allowed to suffer a little hardship and sin, how can he become a talent! ”

It's a pity that Liu's father's original comforting words had the opposite effect, and after Song Xiangmei glanced at her husband fiercely, she said angrily: "My own son, I feel distressed!" ”

"Okay, your son, I won't fight with you!" Every time the two quarreled, almost Dad Liu took the initiative to back down.

……

"Xiaodong, why did you buy so many things and come back, how can we eat so much?" Looking at the chickens, ducks, fish and meat that almost filled half of the room, as well as all kinds of vegetables and fruits that she had seen and had never seen, Song Xiangmei said distressedly.

How much money it will cost!

But Liu Dong is still going home again and again!

"Mom, it's okay if you can't eat, it's such a cold day, if you put it outside, it won't be bad, just eat it slowly!" After Liu Dong finished speaking, he put a large number of boxes in his hand on the Eight Immortals table in the middle, opened the top one, and took out a black suit from it, "Dad, I bought this dress for you, you can wear it and see if it fits!" ”

"Don't buy your dad such good clothes, he can't wear them!" Song Xiangmei said with a smile.

"Who said that when you weren't married before, you didn't see me wear it?"

"That was before, you used to be young, and now you are fifty-three, can you wear such good clothes in class?"

"Alright, Mom! Isn't it just a piece of clothing? My dad can wear it whenever he wants! …… Come on, Dad, I'll put it on for you! With that, Liu Dong took off his father's cotton coat and helped him put it on.

"Wow, Dad is so handsome!" Liu Fei clapped his hands next to him and smiled.

"Really?" For his daughter's praise, Father Liu was obviously very happy.

"It's quite fitting, but the shoes on this foot are a little bit worse!" Liu's mother smiled.

"Wait!" As he spoke, Liu Dong picked up a box from the table and opened it, and took out a pair of black round scalp shoes from it, "Dad, the shoes I bought for you!" …… Oh, yes, and this! ”

As he spoke, Liu Dong took out a palm-sized box from his jacket pocket, and after lifting the lid, a simple and atmospheric men's watch appeared!

"Patek Philippe?" After taking the watch from Liu Dong's hand and taking a look, Liu Jianxing blurted out.

"Dad, do you know?" Liu Dong was surprised, originally he thought that his father, who had never been out of Qingzhou, would not recognize this world famous watch!

"Acquaintance!"

Looking at the familiar trademark on the back of the watch, Liu Jianqing's face showed a look of reminiscence, that strict and loving figure, just like him and his son today.

"Dad?" Noticing the change in his father's expression, Liu Dong said softly.

In fact, since he was a child, Liu Dong has always had doubts about some things in his family. For example, their family does not have a single relative in Beixingluo Village, Zhuliang Town, or even the entire Qingzhou City, and every time Liu Dong mentions his grandparents, he will usher in his father's thunderous anger, and even beat him several times. And after getting angry, my father always locked himself in the study by himself, and did not come out for a night, or even a whole day. And my mother always wept silently, but said nothing.

Slowly, I have experienced more times, grandparents, and even uncles are a taboo topic in the family.

Of course, in addition to his grandparents, Liu Dong also asked his grandparents, but every time he asked his mother, he shook his head with a complicated expression, but he never said a word.

After asking too many times, Liu Dong didn't dare to ask again!

Although, every time he celebrates the New Year, he is very envious of other peers, who can receive New Year's money, and even when he visits relatives, he can eat a sumptuous meal, but their family has never had it. In the more than a dozen Spring Festivals that Liu Dong remembers, from the first day of the new year to the seventh day of the new year, the home is deserted.

Until now, about relatives, it is still a topic that Liu Dong is very interested in, but now that he is older and sensible, it is impossible for him to mention this kind of problem that makes his parents sad.

And after his own analysis in the past few years, Liu Dong also came to a conclusion that his parents were not born and raised in Qingzhou, they moved here from other places, because there are few township middle school teachers who are as knowledgeable and talented as their parents.

For example, his father knows calligraphy, Chinese painting and Go, and is proficient in guqin and Xiao Di, and each of them is very, very good.

In addition, my mother, like my father, is proficient in Western oil painting, drawing, gouache, and the piano! And Liu Dong has a Steinway & Sons upright piano at home, although Liu Dong still doesn't know how it got to his home!

And the reason why Liu Dong was able to master oil painting, drawing, Chinese painting, calligraphy, and piano and other musical instruments was also due to the cultivation of his parents since childhood!

When he was young, he didn't explore the reasons for his parents' erudition and talent, but in the more than three years that he was away from home, Liu Dong deeply understood how difficult it was to master a skill and reach a very high level. This also led to more speculation about his parents' background and origins. It's a pity that until now, unless his parents take the initiative to sue him, Liu Dong can't think about these problems clearly.

"It's fine!" Liu Jianxing, who woke up from his past memories, put the Vacheron Constantin watch on his left hand with a little trembling hands.

"Dad, that's good! Take it with you later, don't take it off! Liu Dongdao.

"Hehe, forget it! Hundreds of thousands of watches are taken out, in case it is bumped, your father and I will not be distressed to death! With that, Liu Jianxing shook his head, took off his watch, and put it back in the box.

"Dad, things are bought for use, and this watch is the same, if it breaks, I'll buy you a new one!"

"Okay, Dad knows you're filial! But now you make me wear such an expensive watch, I'm not used to it! Let's talk about it later! With that, Dad Liu put his watch on the table, and then took off his suit and leather shoes.

Liu Dong couldn't resist his father, so he had to let him!

"Mom, this is for you!"

As he spoke, Liu Dong took out a set of crimson coats from several boxes and handed them to his mother, followed by shoes and watches. As for the jewelry, Liu Dong didn't bring it this time, and the top jadeite such as the glass species imperial green that he solved before, or the top jadeite of the same level, such as the glass species chanterelle yellow and the glass species purple eyes, were mortgaged and locked in the bank. So there is no top-notch jadeite in hand.

Moreover, to send his mother, only the top jadeite can be worthy.

"Oh, mom is old, how can you wear this red!"

"Who said that, Mom, you're not old at all!" Liu Dong hurriedly said.
