Mao 18 looked at his father and mother and nodded, smiled, and said, that is, for you, otherwise I would not be too lazy to care about these idle things, and when I think of their previous things, my heart is blocked.

The days fly by, and the New Year is just around the corner, and the New Year in the countryside feels more atmospheric than in the city.

The family has long had a red lantern, and the pigs who killed the pigs showed a long-lost smile on everyone's faces.

The people who worked outside have come back, so the women who haven't seen them for a long time are also pink and tender after being moisturized.

In the Chinese New Year's Eve, the parents got up very much in the morning, and Mao Eighteen did not sleep lazy, got up to help clean up the yard, and watched Xiao Jiu set off firecrackers endlessly.

After breakfast, Mao Eighteen and Hongguo pasted Spring Festival couplets, Xiao Jiu didn't know where to go crazy, and he didn't see a single figure.

The father cleaned up the fish, and Mao 18 followed.

Mother and Hongguo were busy in the kitchen, giggling from time to time.

Mao Eighteen is also very happy, after all, there is no need to watch people be lively during the New Year like before, and his home is cold, and he doesn't feel it at all.

During the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, my father brought up the wine glass and said to me and Xiao Jiu, you two have grown up, and you don't have to worry about me and your mother, how do you feel that we are useless all of a sudden.

Mao 18 smiled and said, Dad, it has not been easy for you and your mother for so many years, and it is time to enjoy the blessings.

It's better than anything else for a day, walking around the park, yo-yo-hopping, and then we have a baby, and you guys take care of it.

Mao Eighteen's words made Hongguo's face flush and he glared at him.

Mao 18 said, hey, it's not a matter of time before you have a child.

Mother said, yes, I have been looking forward to holding my grandson for a long time, you two have to hurry up, and you are not too old.

My father agreed, saying, no, the money is almost enough, how much is enough, we don't owe others, we have a little deposit in our hands, it's okay, people, don't add to the troubles.

Mao 18 nodded and said, Okay, I remember what you said, in a few years, save some money and don't do it.

Xiao Jiu only drank a glass of wine, and his face turned red, I said, don't drink if you can't do it.

Xiao Jiu smiled and said, Big brother, I'm happy, I must drink something, and I stood up and wanted to pour wine, but my body shook and I almost didn't lie down.

Hongguo hurriedly helped him and said, "Look, I've drunk too much."

Mother said, eat some food, you will feel uncomfortable if you drink too much.

Xiao Jiu said, Mom, I want to toast my eldest brother.

The mother smiled and said, "Look, you're sensible."

Mao 18 looked at Xiao Jiu's virtue and said, forget it, let's drink it again in the future.

Xiao Jiu said, no, big brother, I must toast you.

I saw that Xiao Jiu insisted, so I nodded and said, Okay, but you don't have any liquor, drink some beer.

Xiao Jiu poured me a glass, filled it himself, and stood up staggeringly, Mao Shibai quickly reached out to help him.

Xiao Jiu looked at Mao Eighteen, with tears in his eyes.

Mao Eighteen knew Xiao Jiu's mood and said, Come to the eldest brother and wish you a good future in the future.

Xiao Jiu smiled and said, big brother, I will definitely take you as an example in the future, I won't say too much, I believe you should be able to know what I want to say.

Mao Eighteen nodded, touched Xiao Jiu lightly, and said, come and toast.

Xiao Jiu was really a little bad, Mao Shibai helped him to his room, and the heating inside was blowing his face. Xiao Jiu lay on the kang and fell asleep grogily.

After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the mother and Hongguo made dumplings, and Mao 18 and his father chatted while drinking tea.

The father seemed to have something on his mind, and his brow furrowed into a big pimple.

Mao 18 handed his father a cigarette and asked, Dad, what are you thinking, do you remember what happened many years ago.

The father nodded and said, yes, people are old, and they are always a pile of sesame seeds.

I said, it's all over, why bother thinking about what to do with this.

The father lowered his head and smoked, and a cigarette smoked and lit it again.

Mao 18 said that smoking less is not good for your health.

Father sighed and said, "I remember something from the past, it's been years."

Mao 18 asked, what is the matter, say it and listen to it.

My father said, this matter has something to do with you, and for many years, your mother and I have been hesitant to tell you whether to tell you.

Mao 18 was stunned for a moment and said, why does it still have something to do with me, tell it quickly.

At this time, Xiao Jiu shouted in that room, big brother, thirsty.

Mao Shibai quickly stood up, poured a cup of tea and sent it to Xiao Jiu.

The red on Xiao Jiu's face had faded, and he drank the water that took it.

Mao 18 said, if you don't let you drink, you have to drink, it's uncomfortable.

Xiao Jiu smiled, took Mao Shiba's hand, and said, Big brother, thank you.

Mao Eighteen was stunned for a moment and said, I drank too much, what did I say.

Xiao Jiu said, big brother, what I said is true, if you hadn't got me out that day, I'm afraid I'm willing to nest in it now.

Mao 18 smiled and said, now I know.

Xiao Jiu said, I know, I thought about it all night that night, and I finally understood a truth, that is, nothing is as important as freedom.

Mao Shibai smiled and said, it's good to understand, people, you always have to go through ups and downs to not understand enough.

Xiao Jiu nodded and said, Yes, but do you know why I was like that.

Mao 18 shook his head and said, I really haven't thought about this.

Xiao Jiu said, big brother, I'm anxious, I want to make money like you, make a lot of money, and make everyone look up to me.

Mao Shibai smiled and said, you must remember what the eldest brother said today, everything is not accidental, and it is inseparable from your own decision.

There is more than one path to the dream, there will be thousands of paths, but only one path is right, and sometimes it does not seem to be the most recent.

Not everyone will achieve their dreams, but we must pursue them.

The goal is there, let's not ask what the result is, just work hard.

Xiao Jiu nodded and said, Big brother, I remember everything. Don't worry, I really got it this time.

Mao 18 nodded and said that what you have to bear is something that others can't replace you, so you must be strong.

After Mao 18 finished speaking, he patted Xiao Jiu's shoulder and said, let's sleep for a while, I'll call you when you eat dumplings.

Xiao Jiu lay down and fell asleep again.

Mao 18 returned to his father's side, and then asked his father what was going on with the topic just now.

What his father said made Mao Shibai almost jump up, and he sat there stupidly for a while.
