"Maybe, in fact, I came today to tell you that I plan to go back to my hometown, and I can't take care of Brother Qin anymore for the time being."

"Huh? Why so suddenly? Nothing happened at home, right? ”

"Not really, like you said, I'm just homesick and want to go back."

"It should be, you go yours, take care of you Brother Qin these days, I've worked hard for you."

"You're polite, during Brother Qin's hospitalization, you can take care of your health. In case of trouble, don't be in a hurry, you listen to my uncle's opinion first, he is an old man. In the future, you and the two elders will depend on each other and support each other, and the young people of today can't count on it. ”

I would like to remind my mother with a subtle hint and a few heartfelt words from the bottom of my heart. Maybe many years later, she recalled that her son had said goodbye to her tactfully through the mouths of others, but she didn't know it at the moment.

"You kid, why are you bald and stupid? How do you say that it doesn't seem to come back? Your brother Qin, I eat fasting and pray for the blessing of the Buddha every day, I believe he will definitely wake up. Your brother Qin is a barrister, so he eats by mouth. When he wakes up, you have to let him teach you well, you can't talk stupidly. By the way, my aunt heard that you used to drive a bus, don't you have to go back to the city? When you come back next time, I will definitely let you taste the craftsmanship of the eldest mother, your brother Qin has loved to eat my cooking since he was a child. "Mother's face is arrogant.

"Okay, I promise you, next time I come back, I will definitely try your craftsmanship and see if it is as good as you say." I'm accompanied by a smiling face.

"It's pretty much the same, auntie is waiting for you." The mother gradually restrained her boredom, and when it came to cooking, she showed an innocent smile like a child. I guess it's time to leave.

I got up and asked again about my father's whereabouts, as the end of the conversation: "Where did Uncle go for a walk?" I was idle, and I went out to meet him. ”

"Okay, you young people are just impatient, you go to the courtyard of the community to look for it."

As I stepped out the door, I knew where my father might be on a regular day. It didn't take much effort, but I finally found my father on the chessboard at the corner of the street.

When he saw me coming, he said goodbye to the old men and took the initiative to greet me warmly. We walked along the dappled shade of the street.

I told him: "Uncle, I'm going back to my hometown in Wuchuan, I may not be able to take care of Qin Yuan for the time being, and I'm here to say goodbye today." ”

He said politely, "Then thank you for taking care of our family Qin Yuan for so long." Go ahead, kid, you have to have your own life, don't spend all your time in the hospital. ”

"Uh-huh." I then said implicitly: "Your in-laws, Yin Changtian's family, may have encountered difficulties. I don't think you should tell the eldest lady about this first, Sister Yin doesn't want to say it clearly, you can inquire behind your back and help you think of a way. ”

The father thought for a moment and said, "I've never heard Yin Hui talk about this." If it's really what you said, then thank you for reminding me. It's rare that you are still thinking about our family. ”

I said, "In my heart, you and my aunt are as respectful as my parents. In the future, you two elders should pay attention to their health. If you have an errand or busy business at home, you can call me, and I will be on call. If Qin Yuan can't wake up, I am willing to be a godson to your second elder and honor your second elder. "I grabbed my father's rough hands with mixed feelings.

The father was a little surprised, and although he was stunned, he nodded politely. "Child, your kindness, the uncle understands it. You also have parents, and they are waiting for you to honor them. When you get home, talk to your parents. Older people are more or less unwell. As a son, you have to be considerate and caring for them. ”

"Uh-huh......"

My father and I went with me all the way, and I sent him back to the commissary, and then I turned around and left.

"Kid, when you get to the door, why don't you come in and sit down?" My father's old voice made me unable to restrain the sourness in my heart.

If I don't leave, I will no longer be able to hold back the tears that come out of my eyes. I ignored my father's invitation and turned my back to him. While wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, he waved goodbye.

……

I don't know if my departure will bring earth-shaking changes to my family. I want to survive and stay with them, but that's not something I can do personally.

I turned to the itinerary I had planned last night, and called Zhang Zheyi at noon to have a light meal at the fast food restaurant downstairs from his law firm. I scattered the few dozen dollars I had. Because from now on, money will have no meaning.

I asked him about the progress of Shen Qian's divorce case. He said: "The court has officially accepted the case, and in a few days it will send someone to organize pre-trial mediation." ”

I persuaded him with good words: "If you can mediate or try to mediate, you have to take advantage of Shen Qianxiao and persuade him with good words." I understand that you may not be able to get a commission on the amount of the subject matter of the dispute. I'll start by saying it, but it's not about cutting off your financial route. I really think that there is no need to go to court for the private affairs of the husband and wife. It has reached the point of fanfare and everyone knows about it, and everyone will not look good at that time. ”

Zhang Zheyi was noncommittal, so I stopped and didn't say more.

I turned to him in a serious tone: "I heard Qin Yuan say that you are a person who is upright and has a bold personality. He was embarrassed to say it clearly, and I nagged him a few words. Don't bother me, I'll leave in the evening, planning to go back to my hometown, and today is a farewell. I know you're well-intentioned a lot of the time, but you don't have to use harsh, mean language to point out other people's problems, and sometimes you can get better results by saying it tactfully and subtly. It will also save you a lot of unnecessary trouble, right?

Zhang Zheyi explained with deep feelings: "Actually, I know the problems in my personality, but I think friends should be outspoken, and there is no need to hide them. If I don't point out the problem to the point, I feel sick and uncomfortable. You're right, I know in my heart that my mouth has offended many people, and as the old saying goes, it's not false at all. Brother Ding, in fact, it is really comfortable to chat with you, you speak very well, I really have to learn from you. ”

He turned to me and asked, "Are you sure you want to go?" Where is your hometown? I like your personality, maybe if you don't leave, we'll be friends. ”

I said, "You and I are both friends of Qin Yuan, and friends of friends are friends." We'll see you again in the long run, friend. ”

After bidding farewell to Zhang Zheyi, I hurried to Shen Qian's residence, she was the last target of my trip. Whether it was out of my feelings in the past, or the kindness I owed her later, I always owed Shen Qian and couldn't repay it clearly.
