Chapter 4 The Best Parents (Ask for Collection)
Just when Xu Lai's ears were tormented, the savior came.
Father Xu pushed open the door and walked in with a large bag of boxed lunches.
"Dad, you came at such a good time, I'm dying of hunger. ”
"Hey, I bought you your favorite braised pork ribs, braised crucian carp and hot and sour chicken offal ......"
"Dad, you're so good!" Xu Lai almost jumped up with joy, Dad is not only a savior, but also a savior, saving the sun and the moon.
Xu Lai quickly took the lunch box and put it on the table next to him one by one, although he had some gauze tied to his arm, how could the gauze stop his enthusiasm for eating.
Xu Lai ate with relish, but Xu's mother chatted with Xu's father about Han Ying, all in all, Han Ying was enough to be the daughter-in-law of their old Xu family, both in character and appearance.
"I heard that in today's society, there are tens of millions more unmarried men than unmarried women, and now among these boys, I am afraid that there will be tens of millions of singles...... Fortunately, our family has Yingying, otherwise, since the son's height and family background, I am afraid it will not be easy to find a partner......" Xu's father said worriedly and proudly.
"Rub, dad, what are you talking about, you look down on your son like this?" Xu Lai, who was next to him, suddenly rolled his eyes speechlessly when he heard this.
"It's not that I look down on you, it's that I really can't find a place in you that I can afford. Father Xu said helplessly.
Damn, Xu Lai stopped talking, and it was too sad to say.
"By the way, Lao Xu, when I came before, I saw a mahjong parlor outside, so I will go there to play a few games first, you take care of Laizi here, and then come back to change me at three o'clock." ”
"It's the happy chess and card room, I just passed by and went in to take a look, and the boss asked me to take a seat, if I didn't have to bring food to Laizi, I would have played a few laps there. Father Xu said clearly.
"Big things are important, big things are important, okay, come on, you have a good rest, Mom will come to see you in the middle of the night......" Xu Mu said as she pushed open the door and walked outside.
"You ...... I...... That ......" Xu Lai pointed at Xu's mother speechlessly, and then pointed at himself, and finally looked at Xu's mother's disappearing back, sighed helplessly, and lay down.
It's just mahjong master, do you know that your son just had a car accident today? Now I need your comfort!
"Don't rob, rob the landlord! I rob, I rob, I rob!
The cheerful voice of the landlord sounded, Xu Lai glanced to the side, and saw that Xu's father was leaning against the wall with Erlang's legs crossed, playing with his mobile phone wholeheartedly.
Xu Lai rolled his eyes speechlessly, one was busy playing mahjong, and the other was fighting the landlord if he couldn't play mahjong.
"Dad, could you please turn off the sound, OK?"
"What? Turn off the sound? Did you make a noise? Then I'll go outside and have fun. Father Xu raised his head in surprise.
"Forget it, you better play in it. Xu Lai said weakly.
"Earlier, I thought you thought I was noisy. ”
"How can it!" Xu Lai barely showed a smile, but his heart was full of helpless grief and indignation.
In fact, ten years ago, Xu's father and Xu's mother were not like this, at that time, he also had a younger brother, but unfortunately, in a car accident during an outing, not only the younger brother who was less than one year old died on the spot, but Xu's father was also seriously injured, since then, Xu's father has changed his temperament greatly, he doesn't care about anything, and he is immersed in alcohol all day long. And Xu Mu saw it, you drink, I will play mahjong, and then the two of them are like a game, one will drink all day and get drunk, and the other will sit in the card field all day long, and sit until dawn. Then I don't know when, Xu's father stopped drinking, and followed Xu's mother around the card field all day long, and then both of them became mahjong masters.
"Everything was the car accident back then, if it wasn't for the car accident...... Xu Lai's memory of that time flashed in his mind, and his younger brother's appearance had long been unclear, but if it hadn't been for that car accident, how good it would have been.
Xu glanced at Xu's father, although he didn't know what happened at that time, he only saw Xu's father with a great change in temperament, which can only show that Xu's father's psychological tolerance is too weak. Do you really think that you can run away from everything when you are drunk?
Xu Lai suddenly thought of the "Invincible Heart Sutra", the first realm of the "Invincible Heart Sutra" is called the invincible heart, Xu Lai originally thought that the meaning of invincible in the heart is that there is no enemy in the heart, but now he suddenly thought of another meaning, that is, the invincible mentality.
Mao Taizu once said: All reactionaries are paper tigers. This is not only a contempt for the enemy, but also a confident and invincible mentality, so Mao Taizu succeeded.
Although he doesn't ask his father to be able to compare with Mao Taizu, he should cheer up a little.
Xu Lai suddenly looked at Xu's father, wanting to wake him up: "Dad, do you know what it means to be invincible in your heart?"
"What? What does it mean to be invincible in your heart?" Father Xu was stunned for a moment, and looked over with a stunned face.
"Yes, what does it mean to be invincible in your heart. Xu Lai said seriously.
"This, invincible in the heart, it should mean that a person is always so confident, and also, it can also mean that a person has an invincible heart, uh...... Son, why are you asking this question suddenly?" said Father Xu at a loss.
"You don't care why I'm asking this question all of a sudden, just say what the hell it means. ”
"This ...... The understanding just now should be correct, the first one is the meaning of always being confident, that is to say, having a heart that can never be defeated, yes, that's it, you can defeat my body, but you can never defeat my heart, that's what it means......" Father Xu stammered at the beginning, but when he said it, it became smoother and smoother, and even Xu Lai nodded involuntarily.
"As for the second type, son, you like to read novels so much, you see, some characters in novels, starting from their debut, defeat all enemies step by step, and cultivate an invincible state of mind, which is invincible in the heart, should also have the meaning of invincible state of mind. ”
"What else?" Xu Lai continued to nod approvingly, he had really read such a novel.
"Anything else?" Father Xu shook his head blankly.
"A heart that can never be defeated, or an invincible state of mind, Dad, do you have it?"
"Me?" Father Xu smiled self-deprecatingly, "Do you think I have it?"
He finally realized why his son had asked these questions out of the blue, and it pierced his heart deeply.
Xu Lai did not speak.
"I went outside for a cigarette. Father Xu got up and walked outside, covered in desert.
"Dad, when will you be able to cheer up?" Xu Lai smiled helplessly.
