Xie Dongqing's family lives on the fifth floor, there is no elevator, although it is an old house, the house is very large, more than 100 square meters.

The furnishings inside are no different from before, but there are more green plants on the balcony, which should have been bought after Xie Dongqing came back.

The room was also cleaned up, and Holly's father himself loved to be clean, which also made Xie Dongqing such a person.

"Coming back?" As soon as we entered the house, Uncle Xie's voice came from the kitchen.

Xie Dongqing walked to the kitchen door and said, "Dad, how many times have I told you, don't cook like this, I'll just come back and get it." ”

"What do you mean by that? Isn't it just going to be sick, it's not like I can't move, you want me to lie in bed all day like a man of seventy or eighty, you might as well let me die now. ”

Uncle Xie is such a person, just like my father, stubborn.

It seems that all of their generation are like this, they always feel very young, but they don't know that they are all over half a hundred years old.

In fact, sometimes I am also in a trance, time flies so fast, I have always felt that my dad is still very young, but the wrinkles on his face and the gray hair on his head have increased mercilessly.

Xie Dongqing sighed and said, "Dad, what are you talking about, didn't the doctors tell you not to do heavy work?" ”

Uncle Xie snorted and said, "The doctor also said that smoking is not allowed, I think those doctors smoke fiercer than anyone else." ”

Xie Dongqing looked at me, his face full of helplessness.

At this time, I said: "Holly, I think what our dad said is right, and I think our dad looks very good, you don't have to worry about it at all." ”

Uncle Xie was surprised when he heard my voice, he turned his head to look at me, and said excitedly, "Xiao Gao is here!" Ah! I said Holly, why don't you say it in advance, you hurry up, now go downstairs and buy some braised vegetables. ”

I hurriedly said, "It's okay, Uncle Xie, don't be so troublesome, I suddenly remembered to come and see you." ”

"Okay, I haven't seen you for a long time, you kid, you seem to have lost some weight!"

"It's a little thinner," I smiled and said, "Uncle Xie, you come out and let's talk for a while, and let Holly do it." ”

"That's not good, since you're here, then I have to cook one more dish, your favorite braised pork ribs must be arranged, and there are pork ribs."

Xie Dongqing hurriedly said: "Dad, you go out and chat with Gao Chang for a while, I will also make braised pork ribs, try my craftsmanship today." ”

Uncle Xie looked at Xie Dongqing in disbelief, but in the end, Xie Dongqing and I forcibly pulled him out of the kitchen and took off his apron.

Xie Dongqing also gave me a look and signaled me not to let his father enter the kitchen again.

When I came to the sofa, Uncle Xie poured me another glass of water without being idle for a moment, and I quickly said to him: "Uncle Xie, don't be busy, hurry up and sit down, we haven't chatted for a long time." ”

"Yes, yes, you young people are busy, but it's better to be busy."

I'm ashamed to say it, if it weren't for those things with Xie Dongqing, how could I not know Uncle Xie's situation!

But I didn't look particularly sad, I know Uncle Xie, he has to be strong all his life, and he still can't mention these things at this time.

I said to him, "Uncle Xie, last time I heard my dad say that your leader introduced you to a wife, why didn't you see it?" ”

Uncle Xie smiled, waved his hand again, and said, "That was a long time ago, and I haven't talked about it anymore." ”

"Didn't talk about it?"

"Well, I can't talk about it, I think about it, I'm also old, forget it."

Uncle Xie said, and asked me again, "By the way, how are your parents doing?" ”

"It's good, my dad doesn't know where to learn to fish recently, and I'm addicted to fishing, I heard my mom say that I bought a lot of fishing rods alone, what lure, Taiwan fishing......"

Uncle Xie smiled and said: "Isn't this very good, it's better to have a hobby than staying at home every day like me, I just can't stay, but Holly won't let me go out to find something to do." ”

"Uncle Xie, Holly doesn't let you go out to do things, so it's naturally for you, don't blame him."

Uncle Xie sighed and said, "He always said that I was not in good health, yes, I had lung cancer, but I was like no one, what's wrong?" ”

Uncle Xie is still very relieved of this mentality, at least he can remain so optimistic knowing that he has lung cancer, and many people are actually scared to death when they know that they are in this situation.

Xie Dongqing asked me to persuade his father, and I naturally continued to say to him: "Uncle Xie, you are also old, I know that you can't be idle like my father, but now that Dongqing also has the ability, you don't have to think about it so much...... My dad asked you a few days ago if you might as well go fishing with my dad. ”

Uncle Xie smiled and said, "I really can't sit still fishing, I'm anxious." ”

"Just play, don't look at my dad buying so many fishing rods or something, my mom always says that my dad is just joking, and the fishing rods he bought are enough to open a fish pond."

Uncle Xie was amused by me, and said instead: "Your dad is really interesting, don't say that I haven't been looking for him for a long time." ”

"In that case, I'll ask my dad to come to you tomorrow and take you to fish."

"It's good, but holly may not be good, you know he'......"

"It's his business whether you do it or not, let's be happy."

Uncle Xie laughed again and nodded well: "That's good, oops!" Kodaka, I'm glad I saw you. ”

"Uncle Xie, it's good if you're happy."

"You and Holly are also such good friends, and now that Holly has returned to Chongqing to work, you are another industry, and you must support each other in the future...... What a human life! In fact, it is not easy to have one or two such friends. ”

Uncle Xie's tone suddenly became much lower, and I could feel that she actually knew that her life was short, but she had been facing the few remaining lives with a cheerful attitude.

Although we all looked very happy at this dinner, I knew in my heart that whether it was Xie Dongqing or Uncle Xie, they were just pretending to be happy.

But it's also good, the happiness that can be pretended to be at least a kind of happiness.

After all, the only thing that can be determined in life is the uncertain life.

……

After dinner, we continued to talk for a while, and I saw that Uncle Xie was also quite tired, so I was ready to leave.

Xie Dongqing sent me downstairs, and while waiting for the car, I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Dongqing, I understand your current mood, but you must cheer up." I also know that you have not had a good time these years, but life is like a roller coaster, there are peaks and valleys...... This means that whether it is good or bad at the moment, it is only temporary, life is full of ups and downs, and the key is that we have to enjoy ourselves at the top and be brave when we are at the bottom. ”

Xie Dongqing nodded heavily, and then took a long breath.

In fact, real brothers are like this, even if there have been many misunderstandings before, but nothing happens with a smile.

True friendship doesn't have so many gains and losses, and there aren't so many messy things, sometimes a look is enough.

In this life, it is not uncommon for people to encounter power and money, but it is rare to encounter understanding.

And the best relationship is that I understand you.
