Ji Leng is the only son of his parents, and now he says that after his mother fell and injured himself, his wife, who was teaching at the school, took leave to return to his hometown to help take care of him.

As Ji Leng's wife, she is doing very well.

But a woman's power is always limited.

After all, the pillar of the family is his Ji Leng, not his wife.

And to be honest, although Ji Ming has studied at Lazio in the past two years, and the Lazio club has exempted them from many expenses, Ji Leng still spent a lot of money.

Especially since he doesn't have a regular job now, this money belongs to a period of time.

As the pillar of the family, Ji Leng is not qualified.

Since he can't stay with his wife's parents for a long time, he can't earn enough money to let his family live a worry-free life.

It can be said that he is probably not as much money a month as his wife now.

For a man, this is not something to be proud of.

But he didn't need this, he could continue to stay in that newspaper, and with his qualifications and abilities, he was already a middle-level manager, with a great future and a high income. His family can also live a relatively comfortable life in Shanghai.

If something happens to his parents, he can be there for them right away.

How wonderful.

But why is he like this now?

Because Chang Sheng told him that his son had a talent for football, he took his son all the way to Rome, Italy, to be tested and trained.

In order to make his son's dream come true.

Chang Sheng has always admired Ji Leng, but he let the Lazio club meet Ji Ming's many expenses, and it was not just because of his previous love for Ji Leng.

It's admiration.

Yes, he admires Ji Leng, such a father who is willing to give up everything he has in order to make his son's dream come true. It is worthy of the admiration of constant victory.

So Chang Sheng did his best to help her, and even let the club pay the rent of Ji Leng's father and son, and also reduced all the necessary expenses for Ji Ming's training at Lazio Club.

It can be said that the money earned by Ji Leng only needs to pay for the living expenses of the two of them.

And the club also did everything possible to help Ji Leng introduce jobs so that he could make money.

Even so, Chang Sheng still felt that he didn't help enough.

For example, looking at the embarrassment that Ji Leng is experiencing now, Chang Sheng still feels that this middle-aged man is under too much pressure, which is unfair to him.

His son is working hard to realize his dream, why not himself?

A person who works hard for his dreams, a person who gives everything for the dreams of others. He didn't deserve to be treated like this, and it wasn't fair to him.

In the past, even if I saw that it was unfair, I couldn't do anything about it. At most, a few sighs to express my support and emotion for this father.

But now, I am capable, so I should help such people and solve their worries, so that they can go further and more steadily on the road to pursuing their dreams. Easier.

But how can you help him?

Chang Sheng stared at Ji Leng in a daze.

※※※

Ji Leng had finished explaining, and he was waiting for Chang Sheng's answer.

Ji Ming is a contracted player belonging to Lazio Club, so if Ji Ming wants to leave, he must be agreed by Chang Sheng.

And he and his son were able to come to Lazio because of the help of Chang Sheng. Now if you have something to leave, you should also say to Chang Sheng, which is the courtesy of Ji.

Then he heard Chang Sheng say, "Old Ji, I still don't recommend that you take your son back." For him, the first few years here were the most important. He needs to adapt to this environment, he still has to learn the language, and after returning to China for a few months, without such a language environment, all the things he learned before may be wasted......"

"But I'm gone, my son he ......"

"Don't worry, I'll take Xiao Ming over to live with us, I'll send him to school every day before training, and then take him home after training."

Ji Ming was taken aback when he heard Chang Sheng say this.

"How does this work?" He blurted out.

"What's wrong with this, Old Ji?" Chang Sheng asked rhetorically.

"You're already very busy, how can I bother you again?"

"Trouble?" Chang Sheng smiled. "How is this trouble, Old Ji? We're friends, aren't we? My friend is in trouble, can I not help? If it were you, would you help? ”

Ji Leng nodded.

"Isn't that it? So it's not a problem, it's what I should do as a friend. Don't refuse a friend's kindness. ”

Having said that, Ji Leng still felt a little uncomfortable.

Chang Sheng laughed when he saw this: "I'm also afraid that Xiao Ming will run away in the future!" I'm still waiting for him to play under me! ”

Ji Leng hurriedly said, "Don't worry about this, Lao Chang." Even if Xiao Ming wants to leave you, I won't agree! If he dares to be ungrateful, I'll break his legs! ”

Chang Sheng hurriedly waved his hand: "Hey, don't do this, Lao Ji ...... I'm just kidding. Xiao Ming is a very good child...... Anyway, that's the end of the matter. You go back to take care of your mother, stay in the country with peace of mind, when your mother is well, when you come back. You don't have to worry about your son's side at all. When you come back, if you see Xiao Ming lose a pound, you look for me! ”

Chang Sheng patted his chest and said.

Ji sneered: "What you said, can I still trouble you?" Xiao Ming can let you take care of it, that's his blessing. ”

After talking about his son Ji Ming, it seems that their conversation should be over.

But Chang Sheng said to Ji Leng: "Old Ji, I still have something." ”

"Well, you say."

Chang Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I'm also thinking that it's not a long-term solution for you to do now...... Your parents will get older, the family will need you more and more, and it will be impossible to leave your parents for a long time. And your son will have to go through seven or eight years before he can be fully developed. What do you do during this time? And you don't have a regular job now, and your income always comes and goes, sometimes more and sometimes less. You are a middle-aged man, you are old and young, you are the pillar of your family. It's not going to work like this, is it? ”

Hearing Chang Sheng's series of rhetorical questions, Ji Leng fell silent.

In fact, he has asked himself this question many times - can't it go on like this? can't make money, and he is separated from his wife, and his parents are old, and he can't be filial piety by his side. And he is a man in his forties, and he still has to rely on his wife to support this family, which is really embarrassing......

But if Xiao Ming wants to realize this dream, how can he do it without being around?

He's still so young, he can't take care of himself.

If it weren't for his own mother, who fell and injured herself. Ji Leng will not return to China.

Because he couldn't stand the looks of his neighbors and relatives.

In their opinion, it was a neurotic that he suddenly quit his promising job, dropped his son out of school, and then ran abroad to play football or something. A person's nerves also affect the child. Separated from his wife and made it so miserable, what is it for?

He couldn't explain to these people what a "child's dream" was. In their minds, children's dreams are unrealistic ideas that change anytime, anywhere, every day. If it's just for the sake of the child to say "Dad, I like to play football". Then quit your job and go abroad with your children...... That's really what people with a sick brain do.

Maybe one day, his son will kick out, and he may have the confidence to go home. Accept the envy and appreciation of those neighbors and relatives. But now, he can't come up with anything to justify his choice.

In fact, even he still doesn't know if his choice is the right one.

Maybe...... Is it right...... Right?

Or rather, he hoped to be right, if it cost so much. It took seven or eight years to fail. I'm afraid I can't afford such a blow to myself and my son, right?

※※※

After Chang Sheng asked, Ji Leng remained silent and did not say anything.

Chang Sheng didn't continue to ask, but waited quietly by the side.

He knew that his question was a little sharp, and he didn't know if Lao Ji would be able to face it calmly.

But whether he can or not, he will have to face this problem sooner or later.

There are some things that you don't have to face by pretending you don't care.

Dreams are a very good thing that resonates with people as soon as they are spoken.

So when you look at those talent shows, as soon as every contestant comes on stage, they will say "I have a dream", "Singing is my dream", "My dream is to be able to perform on a big stage...... and so on, and then the judges and the audience below will be moved.

When it comes to dreams, it seems to be a very noble thing.

Everyone will think that people with dreams are very high-end and high-end.

But in fact, although dreams are created out of nothing, they need to be based on reality.

If there is no basis in reality, dreams are destined to be in the air.

Because dreams can be very distant and great, but people with dreams need to eat and have material needs.

Without an economic and material foundation, no matter how beautiful a dream is, it is nothing more than a mirage.

Ji Leng's son's dream is a very good thing, and Ji Ming can focus on his dreams.

But Ji Ming has to face a very real problem - he has to support himself and his son, and he even has to support his wife and parents, and his wife's parents are also his parents......

All of this requires money.

Don't have money to talk about any dreams?

This is why dreams appear most of the time among young people.

Because they're young, they don't have to take on too much responsibility, and they don't have to think too much about reality. If you fail, you just have to start all over again. Because they are young, they can afford to lose.

But what about middle-aged men?

There is an old one on the top, and a small one on the bottom.

There are so many responsibilities involved in them, and they shoulder the livelihood of the family.

They have to be realistic, they can't afford to lose, they don't have the right to dream.

This is why people are particularly moved when they see middle-aged people pursuing their dreams.

Because they all know...... It was so hard!

Ji Leng doesn't have to pursue his dreams, but Ji Leng's son has dreams.

It can be said that Ji Leng's dream is to realize his son's dream.

It takes money.

Where does the money come from?

It didn't fall from the sky.

is such a realistic problem, which is enough to make Ji Leng, a middle-aged man in his forties, gray his hair and many wrinkles.

Chang Sheng looked at Ji Leng with gray temples, still waiting for him.
