Hometown, in front of the grave.

It was April, three spring breezes, and the warbler flew and the grass grew.

Su Yezhi took his mother away and sat on the ground alone, leaning against the tombstone, he wanted to talk to his father alone.

In fact, Su Ye and his father did not communicate much, Su Ye was boarding since middle school, and his father went out to work, and the two met very few times a year, probably during the Chinese New Year. So Su Ye doesn't have many memories of getting along with his father, and what he can still remember now is probably when he was a child.

On countless summer nights, on a cottage in the countryside, I slept on a straw mat made of cattails. Listen to the cicadas chirping and frogs, feel the evening breeze, and the stars in the sky blinking. His father would tell Su Ye stories about his youth, herding cows, driving geese, riding a 28 bar and roaring through the surrounding villages with his friends, telling his favorite TV series "Plainclothes Police", and singing his favorite song "True Hero".

This is a memory that Su Ye can't forget to this day, and it is also one of the few memories left to him by his father

In fact, from receiving the news of his father's death to his burial, Su Ye did not shed a single tear. He calmly comforted his crying mother, calmly received relatives and acquaintances, as if his father had not left at all.

At that time, Su Ye even doubted whether he was a cold-blooded and ruthless person.

Until Father's Day that year, an advertising text message reminded me that today was Father's Day. Su Ye seemed to be hit in the center room in an instant, and after more than a month, tears rained down, and this text message made him realize that he no longer had a father.

Time seems to fly by, and in the blink of an eye, my father has been gone for nine years.

Su Ye looked at the tombstone and finally spoke, "Dad, I'm coming back to see you again." I came here to tell you one thing, I'm with someone I like.

Dad, you have always been proud of me, saying that I am the first college student in the village, and I am the pride of the entire Su family. But you don't know, in fact, your son has a young love, and he has someone he likes in high school.

Dad, I'm not a person of courage, I like her but don't dare to speak. I didn't tell you before, because I was afraid that you would blame yourself, and you would definitely wonder if I was useless, so my son didn't dare. No, I have always been proud of our family, you and my mother have given me the best environment and the most precious love. I don't have the courage, it's my own reasons. But it seems that God still favors me and gives me what I want.

Dad, do you know, your daughter-in-law is very good, her name is Jiang Baizhi, she has a lively and cute personality, and she is very happy with her. You don't have to worry about me anymore, I have someone to take care of, I will go on with her well, get married, have children, and form a happy family like ours"

But speaking of this, Su Ye suddenly choked up, because of his father, he would never see his wedding.

My father didn't love beauty all his life, didn't pay attention to food, clothing, housing and transportation, or wanted to give him and his mother all his limited love. So my father was very himself and rarely wore new clothes. But once when he went shopping, he fell in love with a suit for more than 200 yuan. He wanted to wear it at his wedding, and he thought, my son is so capable, he must wear it to give his son a long face.

Later, her mother told Su Ye about this incident, and Su Ye found out about it. At the time, he laughed it off, but he didn't expect that the suit that his father bought and pressed the bottom of the box and waited until he was ready to wear it when he got married

Thinking of this, Su Ye's tears flowed out uncontrollably. His father still has many wishes, he wants to see the Huangpu River, because when his father was young, he especially loved to watch Chow Yun-fat's version of "Shanghai Tang"; He wanted to drive an elderly tricycle to carry his little grandchildren and tell his grandson the story of "Plainclothes Policeman" that he had told; He wanted to take a family photo every year, but he didn't expect him to be absent; He wanted to wait for Su Ye to stabilize, then he would no longer go out to work, plant some vegetables in the vegetable garden, raise some chickens and ducks, accompany his mother every day, and take a walk together at night, slowly growing old.

Su Ye didn't dare to think about it anymore, he wiped the tears from his eyes and forced himself to smile, "Dad, I really deserve to fight, I only see you once a year, and I'm still crying." ”

"Dad, I'm in good health now, I'm happy, I'm still with my beloved, my mother is fine, we're quite happy. You don't have to worry, we will live our lives and live each day well. ”

"Dad, I'll tell you about this today, I'll come to see you next year, and I'll bring your daughter-in-law with me then."

Speaking of this, Su Ye stood up, patted the soil on his body first, then wiped his face again, adjusted his expression, and then walked towards his mother in the distant field.

This is done because the son's pain is always doubled by the mother.

So Su Ye rarely exposed his sadness and pain to his mother, and he didn't want to pass on his unhappiness to his mother.

"I've really grown up, you used to be closest to me, and you would say anything to me, but now you still whisper to your father." Su Ma looked at Su Ye's figure walking over and couldn't help but tease.

"I told my dad that I had a partner, and he was happy."

Su Ma nodded when she heard this, and unconsciously took Su Ye's arm, I don't know when the child was taller than her, and her shoulders were also very strong, strong enough to carry a home.

"I really want to tell your dad about it, he was looking forward to you dating and finding a girlfriend when you were in college. Who knew that you were stunned when you read and read, finish your undergraduate studies ahead of schedule, and start graduate school again, and you won't find a girlfriend at all. ”

"Mom, why haven't I heard my dad mention it?"

"Your dad will let me be the microphone. As soon as I call him, he will say urge your son to let him find a girlfriend and not work so hard to study. Later, I realized that I was the one who sang the red face in our family, and he sang the white face. ”

"Hahahaha."

"But although your dad is anxious for you to find a girlfriend, he has always been proud of you in his heart. He often told me that you are good at studying, and it took several generations of their old Su family to produce you as a talent. With a son like you, he can wake up laughing in the middle of the night and work energetically. ”

Maybe the wind is too strong, Su's mother said that her eyes were a little red, she lowered her head and diverted the topic, "By the way, do you know, your father is not from Rongcheng, he said that your grandfather's generation moved over, he said that he wanted to go back to his hometown to see if he had the opportunity, but your father didn't tell me where his ancestors were." ”

"The big locust tree in Hongdong County, Shanxi."

"How do you know?" Su's mother was a little surprised, "What did your dad tell you?" When did I tell you? ”

"It's a secret!"

"Okay, the wings are stiff, dare to hide with your mother?"

"Mom, it's a long story."

Su Ye didn't lie, if you want to talk about it, it probably starts with the summer night many years ago

This chapter was written to my father, who would not see my wedding even if I could be with my beloved later. In addition, I recommend to you the sketch "Goodbye Lao Zhang" in the annual comedy contest 2, which is a story about my father's inability to attend his wedding, and a sketch that I cry every time I watch it
