Shen Xiangyong came home from work and walked to the yard with the soju he had just made, and was shocked by what he saw in front of him, is this really his home? When he went out in the morning, the entire courtyard was still overgrown with weeds, but now when he came back, all the weeds had been removed, and the entire Shen family compound was in everyone's sight as before, and those faded walls still showed the majesty of the Shen family compound before, but the Shen family compound was no longer as lively as it used to be. The garbage around him was also cleaned up, and he walked into his house with a burst of excitement and apprehension, and saw a familiar figure tidying up the broken tables and chairs in the yard, and since they left, he had become a little decadent, so he didn't bother to take care of the yard. Now she is so serious about packing, it is estimated that she has been busy all day, although the weather is not too hot, but her clothes are also oozing sweat.

"Xiao Xia ......" Shen Xiangyong felt that his throat was like a knot, and he couldn't say anything for a while, how long had he not seen his children, even if he was in a bag, he would miss his children like ordinary fathers, these days when they left, he blamed himself all the time, he never seemed to have fulfilled his responsibilities as a father to them, which led to the separation of his wife today. It's a pity that the two of them deliberately avoided him and refused to contact him, how could he not be excited now that Shen Xia appeared in front of him.

Shen Xia was moving the tables and chairs, wanting to leave the good ones and throw them out if they couldn't be used. Suddenly I heard someone call her, and looked up, it was her father, who had not seen him for many days, he was thin and much older, his eyes were a little sunken, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were getting deeper and deeper, he was no longer energetic, he looked like a dying old man in his forties. She had the impression that although he was not tall and burly, he was also high-spirited and full of confidence, and after they left, he probably had a very bad time. I don't know why, Shen Xia suddenly stopped complaining about him, maybe it was really blood thicker than water, and finally moved his mouth:

"Dad......"

"Xiao Xia, it's really you! I heard me right, you're willing to call me Dad?! Shen Xiangyong was surprised and delighted, and ran to his daughter, she seemed to have grown taller, she had never looked at her carefully before, it turned out that her daughter was so standard, she was a little thin, and she also suffered a lot outside, right? Can't remember how long it had been since she had called him? Since he was a child, what he saw in her eyes was indifference and resentment, the reason why he has always disliked this daughter is because she doesn't understand human feelings, in her eyes he can't see a trace of father and daughter emotion, but now she is willing to soften her eyes, and called him "Dad", how can this not make him happy.

"My school is on vacation, so I'll come back and take a look, and I'll clean up the house." Shen Xia didn't know how to answer his question, yes, she didn't call him a long time ago, and she almost couldn't shout.

"Good, good, good! My good daughter is back! Xiao Xia, where is your third brother? Why didn't he come back with you? Shen Xiangyong looked around and didn't find Shen Liang's shadow, and he was still a little lost.

"The third brother is busy with work, he asked me to bring you two boxes of moon cakes, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in two days, and he can't come back to spend the holiday with you." Shen Xia put down the chair in his hand, went into the house and handed him the gift box that the third brother gave her, the third brother probably didn't know how to face his father, they all said that there was no overnight feud between father and son, but how could the third brother not have a pimple in his heart after years of accumulation.

"Ah Liang, is he okay? Is this really what he gave me? Is he still thinking about me as a father? He trembled and took the two boxes of moon cakes, a little heavy, for him this is the most precious gift in the world, he always thought that Ah Liang would hate him from the bottom of his heart, so he has not contacted him, after all, he was the one who kicked him out of the house at the beginning, at that time he was too incompetent and too listening to the words of the eldest brother, and he didn't even dare to refute it, and later he knew that the old thinking of the eldest brother should have been outdated a long time ago. blamed himself for forcing him to no longer recognize this family, and beat him. In an instant, all the past came to his heart, he really gave their brother and sister too little fatherly love, he thought that even if he appeared in front of him, he didn't know how to face this son.

"I live with the third brother, he is very good, and the third brother also said that those are in the past, by the way, how are you doing now." Shen Xia still looked at him indifferently, although he was her father, she had never had much affection for him, so she couldn't give that kind of deep affection, and she was also not good at chatting, so it took a long time to find such a topic.

"I help people look at building materials at a nearby construction site, take care of food and housing, and get paid every month." Shen Xiangyong was still immersed in Shen Liang's joy in his heart, constantly stroking the two boxes of moon cakes, since they left, how he hoped that one day the whole family could be reunited together, he has been longing for this day, when people reach a certain age, they seem to be particularly eager for family affection, I didn't know this feeling before, the real children have left, and he felt this pain. It's just her, will she come back? I hurt her too deeply, the relationship between husband and wife has been dull for many years, but he has long regarded her as his relative, and he only knows how to cherish it after losing it. "Your mother, has she been looking for you lately?"

"Yes, she also helped me pay the tuition for my sophomore year of high school, but she didn't see the third brother." The divorce of her parents doesn't seem to have any effect on Shen Xia, they have always been so tormented. Sometimes Shen Xia also wonders, is she too cold-blooded, she can ignore and ignore her biological parents, does she really have no feelings for them at all? She didn't know herself, she just knew that she couldn't let the family be arrogant for too long.

"You're a sophomore in high school......" Shen Xiangyong was a little confused again, his children were sophomores in high school, the funny thing was that he hadn't even been to a parent-teacher conference, Shen Liang had gone to the parent-teacher meeting of Shen Xia School all these years, he was really ashamed of their brothers and sisters!

"Hmm." Shen Xia replied lightly, she is a sophomore in high school, as her parents, guardians don't know what grade she is in this year, and she doesn't know how to respond.

"Xiao Xia, can you call your third brother back? Is our family doing well? I'll be in charge of your lives, really. Shen Xiangyong thought about it for a long time, he still didn't want to lose them in the end, he would rather suffer a little more and want them to come back to his side, he didn't want to end up in his old age and not enjoy the blessings of his children and grandchildren.

"We are all so old, why do we still need you to be responsible, the third brother also has his own job, I can also work part-time to support myself, and the third brother will come back to see you when he is free in the future." Shen Xia sighed, it seemed too late to say this now, their brother and sister had already grown up, how could they still need him to raise them? Just looking at him, she couldn't bear to say this, she had always been indifferent, but she had talked to him so much today.

"Yes, you have all grown up..."Shen Xiangyong lowered his head, he thought too simply, he hadn't fulfilled his father's responsibilities before, would they still give him a chance now?
