readx; After finishing the housework, Xia Wei came to her parents' house, her parents were already busy with lunch, sitting on the sofa and playing cards, Xia Wei smiled and asked when she saw this: "Big, Mom, which of you won?" ”
Dad smiled and raised his head, but his hand was drawing cards, and said, "Your mother is a ruffian, and I always lose." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Mom also smiled and said: "I don't have a ruffian, it's because your card skills are not high, don't admit defeat." ”
Dad was even more happy and said, "Okay, it's your card skills." Then he turned his head and told Xia Wei: "Your mother always rushes to play her cards without waiting for me to play, so let her win happily." Then he said to his mother, "I deliberately let you." ”
Mom said, "Who wants you to let me?" Then told Xia Wei with a smile: "Your father dozed off as soon as he sat down, and if he didn't play cards with him, he would really have Alzheimer's." ”
Xia Wei also smiled from ear to ear, and said happily: "Just have fun, it doesn't matter if you win or lose." ”
Mom and Dad burst out laughing.
Xia Wei turned around and said to her parents, "You continue to play cards, and I'll write something for a while." ”
Dad said, "Okay, go and get busy, and eat when your brother comes back." ”
Xia Wei came to the small room, turned on the computer, checked the original manuscript of the novel in the space, and then continued to write. As soon as I wrote a paragraph, my father shouted in the living room: "Wei'er, it's time to eat, I'll write after eating." ”
Xia Wei replied, "Oh, okay, I'll be right away." Then he saved the manuscript he had written, and came to the living room, his parents and younger brother were already sitting around the table, and his younger brother was playing with his mobile phone, and when he saw Xia Wei coming over, he hurriedly raised his head and shouted, "Sister, sit down and eat." Xia Wei sat down on the side and picked up the rice bowl and asked, "Just a few of us to eat?" ”
Mom said, "Eat quickly, your brother and daughter-in-law eat at work at work, just a few of us eat." ”
Xia Wei said: "Oh, it's very hard, and I don't rest on Sundays." ”
The younger brother said, "She's used to it." ”
After eating, Xia Wei got up and cleaned up the table, put the dishes and chopsticks into the sink, and said to her parents, "Don't move, I'll come over and wash it after I'm done." ”
Dad said, "Go ahead." ”
Xia Wei began to continue writing. When it was a little faster, my mother shouted in the living room, "Wei'er, didn't you say you were going to see a square dance competition?" It starts at one o'clock in the afternoon, and it's too late if you don't go, so we'll go first, and you'll come over when you're busy. ”
Xia Wei replied: "Okay, I'll be there in a while, you go first, don't wait for me." Xia Wei remembered that she met her old colleague Sister Wang in the Civic Square yesterday afternoon and promised her that she would go to see their dancing competition in the Civic Square. When I got home, I learned that my mother also had a square dance competition, and it seemed that this competition was a must, first, to keep promises, and secondly, to add some confidence to colleagues and mothers' competitions.
Xia Wei left the matter of writing and came to the Civic Square, and the performance competition had begun. Xia Wei stood on the steps looking for her colleague and mother, but the performers were all wearing the same costumes and sitting neatly on the steps. Suddenly, she saw her mother in the crowd, who was waving to her. Xia Wei immediately ran to her mother's position, came to her mother's face, greeted her mother's teammates, and then stood in the corridor behind her mother to watch the performance on stage.
Xia Wei bent down and asked, "Mom, do you know where Sister Wang is?" ”
Mom said, "It's Dr. Wang and their team that will appear right away. Then, my mother pointed to the stage and said, "Look, the first one in the first row is Dr. Wang." ”
Xia Wei looked towards the stage, only to see that Sister Wang was already standing on the stage, as the music sounded, Sister Wang and her teammates danced, Xia Wei came to the front of the stage, raised the camera to take pictures of the crowd of performers.
As the music of the performance ended, Sister Wang and her teammates walked off the stage and sat down on the steps on the side. Your show was amazing, I took a picture of you. ”
Sister Wang immediately stood up from her seat, took Xia Wei's hand with a smile and said, "Xia Wei, you're really here, come and sit down, I'll have another show later, you can help me take more photos, I'll keep it as a souvenir." ”
Xia Wei sat down with a smile and replied, "No problem, I'll take a few more photos for you, you give me the buckle number, and I'll send it to you." ”
Sister Wang pursed her lips and smiled, and then said, "I didn't deduct the number, but I can ask my daughter to apply for one for me, and I will call you to tell you when I have it." ”
Xia Wei said: "Okay, when you are done, call me and tell me, I will add you as a friend, and then send you the photo." ”
At this time, her mother's team also appeared, and Xia Wei raised her mobile phone to take pictures.
I saw my mother walking to the center of the square with the team, and Xia Wei looked in the team to see who she knew. Suddenly, Xia Wei saw her aunt standing next to her mother, and her neighbor Xiaoju, great, there are so many people she knows.
My aunt didn't know how to dance square dances before, but since her family was demolished and came to Xia Wei's community to rent a house, her mother took her aunt, who was suffering from cancer, to participate in the activities of the neighborhood committee. Since my aunt and my mother have been together, she has become more cheerful, and she no longer worries about whether cancer will recur after surgery, her body has gradually improved, and her face is even more ruddy and fair, if she doesn't say it herself, no one will suspect that she is a cancer patient.
Neighbor Xiaoju is different from her aunt, she is a person who has just retired for a few years. Xia Wei still remembers that when Xiao Ju first retired, she looked sad all day long, she was only fifty years old, she didn't know how to spend her days, she became thinner, her hair began to stand up, and her whole person changed greatly.
Mom bought a small radio, in the community to teach my aunt and Xiaoju square dance, Xiaoju is very spiritual, people are also young, memory is good, as soon as you learn. Since falling in love with dancing, Xiaoju's mental outlook has changed, and she looks happy all day long.
My colleague Sister Wang is different from them, after retirement, she wonders what she is sick all day long, sometimes saying that her heart can't beat, and then saying whether there is a tumor in her stomach, which makes her family miserable.
One day, Xia Wei found Sister Wang and said to her, "You can go to the University for the Elderly to learn something when you have time after you retire." ”
Sister Wang looked at Xia Wei puzzled and said, "I'm retired, what are I doing in the university for the elderly?" ”
Xia Wei said earnestly: "It's useful, you see, my mother learned to dance at the University for the Elderly after retirement, and also learned the art of tying flowers, as well as painting." ”
Sister Wang looked at Xia Wei in surprise and said, "The old university still teaches dancing?" ”
"Yes, there are also learning English, computer, I heard my mother say that there are many majors, you can sign up for whatever you want to study, the principal of the university for the elderly is still a teacher in our high school, and he was also the principal of our middle school at that time."
Sister Wang's eyes widened and said, "That's great, I'll call a few retired classmates to go to the University for the Elderly to learn to dance together, so that someone can talk." ”
Xia Wei said: "Yes, if you go to dance, your heart will definitely be good, better than any medicine Turin." ”
After Xia Wei finished taking pictures of her mother's team, she came to Sister Wang's side and asked, "Do you still have heart disease?" ”
Sister Wang said happily: "Don't say it, I forgot about it, and I haven't been sick recently." ”
Xia Wei also said happily: "That's great, I wish you eternal health!" ”
"Thank you!"
Seeing that her former friends and colleagues can now be healthy and happy, Xia Wei is also happy.
At this time, the ranking of the competition was being broadcast on the loudspeaker, Xia Wei didn't hear anything as she spoke, so she asked Sister Wang on the side: "Has your team won the ranking?" ”
Sister Wang said happily: "Our team won the second place. ”
Xia Wei said happily: "Congratulations, great." ”
Although my mother's team didn't finish in the top few, they did their best, and the people on their team were older, so it was a pleasure to be able to participate in this competition.
