CHAPTER XV
fifteen
Sang Zixin and her mother's house are next to each other, and the two communities are separated by only an iron fence, and a small door is opened on the fence. Although it is two communities, it is the same past as one community. Fang Hua lives with her son and daughter-in-law, but as a daughter and son-in-law, she also has to fulfill her responsibilities and take care of her elderly mother more conveniently.
For more than ten years, the first signs have shown the strength brought by Sang Zixin and Wei Daping's hard work. However, the increasingly superior life did not make Wei Daping feel relaxed, and he seemed to spend every day in the torment of restlessness. "I can't be idle at home." He thought. Though he doesn't worry about food or clothing; Despite the kind words of the daughter-in-law, the children must be taken care of, and they should be tutored in their studies, and they can also find things to do at home.
"When the enterprise stops work and stops production, how can there be a suitable job." He said to his daughter-in-law bluntly.
But the children have to be taken care of, and the family needs someone else. Although Wei Daping listened to his daughter-in-law's persuasion; Although he knows what his daughter-in-law means, a dignified seven-foot man must stand up to the sky and the earth, and he must be responsible and responsible. I'm not a lazy person; It's not that he doesn't care about his family, and he doesn't feel inferior because of his tiptoes. It has been more than two years since I was on vacation, and the wages for work-related injuries have already been paid. Now, he has become an idler at home. Therefore, in the face of certain things, Wei Daping's mood is always impatient. I can't put any more pressure on my daughter-in-law, he thought. Now, he doesn't grasp his son's studies as tightly as he used to. However, Wei Wei, who doesn't like to study, has time to play games.
Due to the restructuring of enterprises, laid-off workers have no choice but to leave their homes and seek a livelihood in large and medium-sized cities because of the pressure of life. "I'm going to go out like my co-workers." He thought. While he was young, he was going to go out and break through, and after making up his mind, he said to his daughter-in-law. "I'm going out to work." Sang Zixin, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at him puzzled, "Do you really want to go out?" ”
"Now is not the time to stay, although every day is not idle, and the family needs a person, but the heart is still empty, it is always like something, and it will be too late to wait until the age of fifty to do it." Wei Daping took a breath and said what was in his heart.
Facing her persistent husband, Sang Zixin didn't say anything.
"A few days ago, the workers who went out told me about their situation, as long as they are willing to work, the money is guaranteed." Wei Daping and his daughter-in-law told the truth.
"Find a ...... at home," she added.
"Do the work of the elderly now, so that people don't laugh out of their big teeth." Wei Daping said: "If you can really do this job, the salary will be about 1,000." Those tongue-chewers say that I eat by my daughter-in-law. ”
Sang Zixin faced her husband and listened to his heartfelt words, her heart was sour. If she had to speak again, I'm afraid her tears would fall. He is not a man who does nothing, and he is not a man who breaks jars; It's not a person who lives on his wife. He should have his own ideas and his own career. Although he has no job, he should create conditions to realize his value. This is the real idea that he wants to get out.
Sang Zixin listened to her husband's words and thought at the same time: Those who don't want to make progress stay at home all the year round, point to their wives to feed, and pick up thorns. If this kind of life goes on for a long time, it will definitely end miserably: father and mother are separated, and it is the children who suffer. So, Sang Zixin asked her husband, "When are you leaving?" ”
"Just these two days." Wei Daping said.
"Well, maybe, not the way it is." She said reluctantly.
Wei Wei is in his room, maybe he is sleeping here? After Sang Zixin and Wei Daping discussed, they got up and walked into the bedroom. They were lying on the bed, and they were so excited that they didn't feel sleepy. At this time, maybe everyone is like a movie, thinking back to the past? After a while, they rolled over again, still unable to sleep. So they looked at each other and resonated at the same time: one "happiness" is better than a four-kilometer jog. So they stuck together...... I fell asleep together.
When Wei Daping left, Sang Zixin gave him five thousand yuan. He wondered if the money at home was at all. Besides, you don't need so much money.
"Don't sit on a hardboard overnight, sit on a sleeper." She said. When she saw that her husband was still puzzled, she said, "I took it from his grandmother." ”
"Remember to give it back to his grandmother." Wei Daping instructed his daughter-in-law.
Sang Zixin nodded, "Don't worry." ”
At noon that day, Sang Zixin called her mother, younger brother, and younger daughter-in-law over to have a meal together. Wei Daping told his mother-in-law, brother-in-law, brother-in-law and daughter-in-law about going out to work. "The workers have been out for more than half a year, and they have basically stabilized."
"Can their words be trusted?" Sang Zixuan asked his brother-in-law.
"They are very realistic, and besides, these people are also very honest, and they are good co-workers with me, and they can't be fake. It's all work, and with them, you don't have to worry about finding a job. Wei Daping said.
Huilan, who was listening carefully, also moved her mind at this time.
But after Huilan was laid off, the sisters went out to work one after another, and the family went out. So she told her husband what she thought, and he wouldn't let her out. After such a long time, she was bored at home, so she had the idea of going out to work again, but she was persuaded by her kind husband and mother-in-law. Therefore, today's brother-in-law's actions have made it possible for her to go out again. But she didn't show it on this occasion.
The mother-in-law and Huilan are gone, and so are the people who go to work. Wei Daping cleaned up the dining table and slept with the strength of wine. He woke up with his stuff in it.
Sang Zixin returned home early. When she entered the house, she saw that her husband had already packed his bag, so she took off her coat and found the items he needed to bring. "The poor are rich, bring everything that can be used." She said. Wei Daping looked at his daughter-in-law warmly, he didn't want to stop her kindness. She carefully found, folded, and pretended for him...... Sang Zixin said with emotion:
They have been married for more than ten years, and their children are so old. Although they also have time to quarrel, there is no problem of principle, and quarreling is just a few words, which are all trivial matters. This phenomenon was later jokingly referred to by them as the spice and vignette of life. They are husband and wife, and they will say the same no matter what the occasion or who they are with. When Sang Zixin's colleague said that she was the right person, she jokingly said, "In the past, high-ranking officials and nobles paid attention to the right person. Ordinary people don't care about it at all, especially those who go to the mountains and the countryside, let alone talk about it. ”
After more than ten years of married life, their behavior and ambition are obvious to all. While helping her husband get together, Sang Zixin thought:
Sometimes, although the mother-in-law has a little temper with her, the mother-in-law has no malicious intentions. Whenever her husband found out, he always said to her mother-in-law tactfully, "Mom, you want a bowl of water, my daughter-in-law has done a good enough." The mother-in-law listened to her son's words and had nothing to say. Mother-in-law, she is her husband's mother, her own mother. Since the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have a disagreement on something, in addition to mutual tolerance and understanding, the younger generation will let the old man a little bit, and the matter will be solved. There is no one who is afraid of anyone, who is right and who is wrong. After all, there is a difference in age between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and children must be humble to their fathers and mothers one by one, as long as it is not a matter of direction and principle.
Although there were times when her husband's approach to raising her children was not in line with her ideas, he always listened to her later. They all know that both of them are for the children and for the sake of a family here. Wei Daping doesn't like to talk much, but his words and deeds cover the concept of family, and at the same time he has responsibility and responsibility. Whether it is life, work, home or outside, he can be united and friendly, respect and love each other, do not say hurtful words, and do not do things that violate conscience and morality. Otherwise, how could he stand in front of the factory leaders and workers? People go to high places, and water flows to low places, and this is how she thinks of her husband who is the same on the outside.
The suitcase and a bag were filled, and then she stood up, "I'll give you a hot meal." ”
"No, if you're hungry, chew a bag of instant noodles." Wei Daping said jokingly. "You don't always eat, okay?"
Sang Zixin also smiled.
They had just sat down when their son came back from school. "Dad, are you ready?" When he entered the house, he saw the chest and the bag in the middle of the floor, and asked in a loud voice.
Wei Daping was amused by his son. "I didn't expect my son to care about people. Listen to your mother, do a good job in your studies, pay attention to lectures in class, complete your homework carefully when you get home, and ask your mother if you don't understand. He continued. Son, you are older, you must know that you feel sorry for people, and care more about your mother. He told his son.
Time's up.
"No need to send it, I'll go downstairs and leave in the car." Wei Daping stood up and said.
"Protect yourself along the way and report safety to the local area." Sang Zixin is even more sorry to say goodbye.
"Got it, don't come out." Wei Daping wanted to turn around and watch his daughter-in-law talking to his son, but he couldn't turn back, his eyes were already moist. He hurried downstairs, but he didn't walk fast.
Wei Daping got on the train, came to his bunk, put his belongings away, took out a water glass, and sat quietly on the rest table in the aisle. So he listened to the vibrations of the carriages and the rails, and the train sped across the vast land. Wei Daping has been facing out the window, and the land, forests, mountains, and rivers are roaring in front of his eyes. After a while, he took his heart back again. He wouldn't have walked this far unless he had to. Everyone knows that wives and children have hot kang heads. However, everyone has to face survival and real life. When life comes, you must first be raised by your parents, go to school, and then become a laborer, and realize your ideals and ambitions in your own work. People, just for decades, live and survive is the instinct of people, and then run and work for survival and life until the end of life. However, there are several opportunities in a person's life to decide his own destiny, and it is his creation in this life that he can meet Sang Zixin. In a person's life, there is no need to be rich and rich, as long as the confidant who has a heart-to-heart and has the perception of the heart, it is his own happiness. Sang Zixin is a rare daughter-in-law, with a good job, a good person, and a beautiful person. Whether at home or outside, a daughter-in-law is a good hand. The three daughters-in-law of the Wei family, needless to say, people have a little ninety-nine in their hearts. With such a daughter-in-law, can this family be bad......
The sun went down and the sky grew dark. down. Wei Daping stood up, took a water glass, and came to the connection of the train to fetch water. He returned to his seat, took out the instant noodles, and chewed them while drinking boiling water. After eating, he threw the remnants in the trash can and came out of the toilet and lay on the bed......
