Chapter 144: Dad Goes Back
"Uh...... She's not that kind of person. ”
"Since you know her so well, what are you worried about?"
"Uh...... How much should we give according to our customs? ”
"A thousand."
"That's pretty much it."
"Then I'll give her two thousand."
"Didn't you say that the custom is a thousand? Why give two thousand? ”
"This girl has a temper that suits me, I'll pack more." Is this the thrifty father I am familiar with? Why do I feel like he's a different person?
"Dad, it's not easy for you to make money."
"You know what? Just because it is not easy to make money, if it is given to her, she will remember it more deeply. I can't bear the child to catch the wolf, such a good girl, if you don't spend some blood, you will cry in the future. ”
"I see, Dad, you can do it."
"That's ...... Your father and your mother ...... back then, "Stop, I don't listen, my father and mother are on a blind date, why do you say it in your father's mouth now, but it's more free love than free love?" How could he be so open in his time? It's really strange, why did my father, who didn't drink alcohol, get drunk early in the morning?
"Dad, sit down, I'll go to the bathroom." Qian Annie finally came out, and seeing her coming this way, I quickly got up and went to the bathroom. I've been suffocated by my father for so long, and now it's my turn to release it.
I walked up to Anne Chin, passed by her, and whispered in her ear, "Be careful, do it yourself." Then under Qian Annie's puzzled eyes, I rushed to the bathroom. I was scared out of sweat for what happened to her, and I had to leave a suspense to make her heart uneasy.
When I came out of the bathroom, I saw my father and Qian Annie talking and laughing, Qian Annie bought some water chestnuts from nowhere and was peeling them for my father to eat. My father ate so deliciously that when he saw me coming back, Qian Annie glared at me and helped my father peel the water chestnut again.
After eating a few water chestnuts, my father clapped his hands, slapped off the water chestnut meat foam on his hands, got up and said let's go.
I left with Anne and I grabbed Anne and asked her father what she had told her, and she glared at me and twisted my arm hard. At the same time she stomped on the instep of my foot, and before I could scream, she smiled and caught up with my father and put her arm around his shoulder. Like a well-behaved daughter, she snuggled up to her father's side, and her face was full of happiness.
Who are these people? What's going on? Why am I a loner? I reluctantly rubbed her sore arm and chased after her.
Parting has been a very sad topic since ancient times, I am not an emotional person, but I generally try not to mention it, because it will evoke a person's memories and make people feel inexplicably sad.
The ancients used countless poems to complain about this inevitable situation, I am a layman, I also have seven emotions and six desires, and I will be depressed about parting, just like my father suddenly proposed to leave after breakfast.
I wanted to spend another day with my father, but I saw him off on Monday, but I didn't expect him to be ready to go back. When we returned to Hanting after breakfast, my father took out his simple duffel bag, and as soon as I saw the frame, I knew that he was ready to go back.
Although we knew that my father's decision was very difficult to change, Anne and I tried to persuade my father to play for a few more days as soon as we could.
My father smiled and said that he had been playing long enough, and said that the purpose of his visit this time was to see the two of us, and now that he has seen us, he feels very happy to see that we are having a good time.
Although it was only a day or two, it was like a year or two had passed for him, and it was the most fun day he had in decades. Now he has to go back and report the situation to his mother, and more importantly, let her know the good news earlier.
In the end, my father said a little shyly that he had been accustomed to his mother being by his side for so many years, and he couldn't leave her alone to be outside all the time, and he was afraid that his mother would be worried if she was at home alone for a long time.
Now that my father had made up his mind, I knew that it would be useless to keep him. So I asked my father to bring me the room card, I went to check out, but my father wanted to let us carry the luggage to the lobby and wait for him, he said that he lived here for a few nights, he had asked the specific check-out and check-in procedures, he wanted to go back himself.
Anne and I looked at each other, but my father insisted on doing this, so we decided to let him go and quit on his own, which was also a safe way to let him be independent.
Think about how similar the process we have been from childhood to adulthood, our parents began to teach us to do an event, and then slowly let us do it ourselves, but they still felt uneasy about watching over us from a distance.
Now that time and space are turning, places are reversed, and I am standing not far away, watching my father check out there, and he seems so cautious that he is afraid of making a mistake. Smiling from time to time, I could see that he was a little restrained, and when he was gone, he smiled very happily at me and Qian Anne with his money and ID card, really like a child.
If it weren't for the fact that he had a full head of white hair and a big man of 1.8 meters, this smile alone would definitely make people misunderstand that he was a child. This is my self-reliant and unpretentious father, there is liquid rolling in my eyes, I quickly turn around, gently protect it with the palm of my hand, and then wipe it seemingly casually, take a breath, and instantly return to normal.
In this city, we all have to learn to disguise ourselves and not let our most affectionate side be fully displayed.
Anne Qian stood beside me, and we were like a couple, watching the excited 'child' come to us, and then catch up, and my father wanted to give me the money back.
I shoved it into his pocket, then carried his luggage, leaving Annie Qian to accompany him in the back. I went out to stop the car, I first let the car go to the mall, and then with Qian Annie, my reluctant father, I went to buy some supplements for him to take back with my mother. I also bought some fruits and the like, and my father kept saying don't spend this unjust money, we don't follow him.
After buying it, I got on the bus and went to the train station, and when I arrived at the train station, I helped my father buy a ticket and enter the waiting room. Father said okay, let's go back to our business first, but we just didn't listen to him, and stubbornly insisted on sending him to the car.
Watch the car leave before leaving.
At this time, I really want to stay with my father for a while, even if it is for a minute, it will be very warm and very happy.
At this moment, I realized in my heart that this is family affection, which is difficult to give up, and the sincere affection of mutual trust and uncomplaining and unrepentant blood is thicker than water.
