It's just that my joyful mood became a little heavier when I stood at the door of my house.
When Professor Zhou was communicating with Wan Jiaojiao, he said that Wan's father's condition had improved. But Wan Jiaojiao didn't see it in person, so she felt uncertain after all.
And when Wan Jiaojiao was standing at the door, a fragrant smell wafted over.
Wan Jiaojiao couldn't help but sniff and praised: "It smells so good. Is this the smell coming from our home?"
In response, Grandma Wan said firmly: "Yes, it is still a dish made with the chili sauce I fried."
If that's the case, doesn't that mean...
Wan Jiaojiao's heart moved, she took out the key and opened the door.
When the two walked into the room, they heard the sound of cooking coming from the kitchen. Through the crack of the kitchen door, they could also see a familiar figure.
Father Wan had cooked a dish and was about to put it on the dining table. But when he turned around, he saw Wan Jiaojiao and Grandma Wan standing in the room with surprised expressions on their faces.
This startled Wan's father. After calming down, he asked: "When did you come back? Why didn't you say anything?"
What else could be the reason for being too shocked?
Wan Jiaojiao looked at the other dishes on the table and asked, "These...are all made by dad?"
"yes."
"How can you eat so much by yourself?"
Wanfu didn't speak immediately, but an awkward look flashed across his face.
After Grandma Wan regained her composure, she smiled and said, "Silly girl, your father knew we were coming back today and specially cooked some delicious dishes."
"Then how did dad know?"
"I told him, but I didn't expect that your father would be so thoughtful and prepare these things."
The exchange between grandfather and grandson made Wan's father even more uncomfortable. There happened to be soup still simmering in the pot, so Wan's father said, "I'm going to see how the soup is doing."
Wan Jiaojiao said hurriedly: "Let me help."
"Farewell, go and rest, I can handle it by myself."
Although Wan's father's voice was a bit stiff, Wan Jiaojiao could feel the warmth in her father's words.
This made Wan Jiaojiao and her grandma look at each other involuntarily, and both of them saw surprise in each other's eyes.
What surprised Wan Jiaojiao even more was that there was no wine on the table during the meal. You know, Wan's father used to drink like water, and Wan Jiaojiao tried to persuade her for a long time to no avail. Now, she doesn't need anyone else's advice.
Can Father Wan consciously put away the wine bottle?
Wan Jiaojiao felt very unbelievable and asked: "Dad...has he given up drinking?"
"Well, Dr. Yin called me later and asked me how I was doing with the medicine. I hadn't taken it at that time, so I responded vaguely. But Dr. Yin seemed to believe it, and even explained the precautions after taking the medicine.
, and also sent some information to let me know what the consequences would be if I continued to drink."
There were some pictures in the information, which were very... realistic. Especially the close-ups of diseased organs, which successfully scared Wan's father. He immediately decided to take medicine on time, and slowly gave up drinking.
Wan Jiaojiao's heart was full of gratitude at this moment. Her father returned to normal because of the help of people around him. Wan Jiaojiao thought that she must thank these people who helped their family in person.
Just when Wan Jiaojiao was secretly making a decision, Wan's father raised his head and asked a question, "I heard that Sheng Jialuo also went to the ancient town where you were traveling?"
Wan's father's question was too sudden. Wan Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, then lowered her eyes and replied: "Yes, he wanted to open a resort, so he went to choose an address and bumped into him."
In fact, Wan Jiaojiao was very worried that Wan's father would make some assumptions, and then Wan Jiaojiao would waste time explaining. But Wan's father did not make the association as Wan Jiaojiao expected, and instead fell silent for a moment.
After that, he warned her sincerely: "Don't feel that you are inferior just because someone is rich. You are no worse than anyone else and you deserve to be hurt."
Her father's words were full of emotion, so emotional that Wan Jiaojiao almost cried.
Finding that Wan Jiaojiao didn't respond to him, Wan's father asked, "What's wrong? Did you not hear what I said?"
"I heard it."
"Then why don't you give a response?"
"Because... I think you are right."
Wan Jiaojiao raised her head and smiled obediently. And that smile made people want to cherish her involuntarily. At the same time, Wan's father also blamed himself very much, feeling that he was such a bastard in the past for letting his daughter bear such a pain alone.
What pain and suffering.
Fortunately, he still has a chance to correct himself, and their family will definitely live happily in the future.
Wan's father quickly lowered his head to cover up the red circles under his eyes, and ate the food one bite after another to relieve his slightly excited mood.
Although Wan's father thought he had hidden it well, Wan Jiaojiao still discovered his father's emotional changes. After dinner, Wan Jiaojiao couldn't wait to contact Professor Zhou Zhou to ask about her father's change.
Is the change short-term or long-term?
Professor Zhou answered Wan Jiaojiao's call and said with a smile: "You must have come back."
"Well, how do you know that?"
"Because your father had a conversation with me, and he also consulted me on how to repair the relationship with you. I suggested that he prepare a reception banquet for you on the day you come back. I think he must have adopted my suggestion.
I just don’t know, how does it taste?”
"Very good, thank you, Professor Zhou. If it weren't for your enlightenment, my father would not have changed so much."
Wan Jiaojiao sincerely thanked Professor Zhou and spoke in an extremely serious tone.
Professor Zhou could feel Wan Jiaojiao's gratitude. He smiled and said: "You're welcome, this is all what I should do. But your father, who has been stubborn in his heart for many years, is not so easy to let go completely. But he is willing
It is really not easy to make changes and overcome psychological obstacles, and it is also worthy of respect. Please try to be considerate of his family and give him some encouragement when it is reasonable."
"Okay," Wan Jiaojiao pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment, then asked out her worries, "Professor Zhou, I would like to ask, will my father's changes like this be maintained forever?"
"Returning to a healthy mental state requires a long-term process. There may or may not be recurrences, which cannot be guaranteed. But no matter what, as long as you maintain an optimistic mood, the results will not be bad.
"
Professor Zhou's enlightenment made Wan Jiaojiao's mood suddenly brighten.
The worst situation has already happened, how can it be worse in the future? As long as she thinks about it, Wan Jiaojiao feels that the road ahead is full of flowers, and she herself is full of energy.
Wan Jiaojiao's lips couldn't help but smile, and she said: "I know, by the way, grandma and I bought some gifts in the ancient town and wanted to send them to you."
