"Of course I can't understand it." Mother Xue shook her head: "They are so busy every day. They have to make money, socialize, and accompany their loved ones. How can they have so much time to take care of you. Unless you fall, they will know that they should take care of their parents."
Xue Ling laughed dumbly: "Yes! Unless we fall, they will always think that we are superhuman parents."
Mother Xue said sincerely: "We, after all, have been here, and we know how difficult it is for you. We are a family with a relatively good financial situation. At least we don't have to worry about three meals a day. But the more this happens, the more likely we are to have other conflicts. People,
As long as you are human, you will not have worries. You are either worried about this or you are worried about that. Sometimes it is not serious, sometimes it is very serious. The only difference is this, but there is no such thing as not worrying."
"It seems so." Xue Ling smiled bitterly and sighed, "After living for decades, it seems that there are not many easy days."
Mother Xue rubbed the wrinkles on her forehead and said, "I'm almost a hundred years old, and I don't have many easy days! Didn't I already say that? As long as you are a human being, there is nothing you are not troubled about."
"It will be better when you are a child."
Mother Xue shook her head: "He also has his worries. Today he has to eat fried dough sticks, tomorrow he has to drink soy milk, and the day after tomorrow he has to go to the park to play. But how can he not get what he wants every day? Therefore, he will also be disappointed and worried. Don't think that he is old.
I don’t have worries anymore, I still have them!”
Xue Ling gently stroked her hair and comforted her: "With less desire and less expectation, there will be less worry. The key lies in your mentality."
"That's right!" Mother Xue hummed softly: "At our age, many people can think about it. If you can't think about it, there's nothing you can do. You'll just suffer. There's nothing good about it. If I can't think about it, I won't be able to survive.
This age."
Xue Ling joked: "If you think more liberally, you might be able to live to be 200 years old. Come on!"
"Haha!" The old man laughed: "Isn't that a goblin? I am a human being, not a god, so how can I be so powerful?"
Xue Ling deliberately praised: "With your intelligence and wisdom, it is easy to become an immortal and a god!"
"Pull him down!" The old man stopped and said, "You have already worked so hard as a human being, but why do you want to become an immortal? Wouldn't that be even harder? Let's forget it."
Xue Ling laughed: "What? You don't even want to be a god?"
"What are you doing!" Xue's mother said with disgust: "I have been a human being for so many years and I still don't know how to be a human being. You want me to be a god? I don't want to! The longer I live, the more trouble I will get!"
Xue Ling put away the comb and sat next to her old mother.
"It is always said that happiness is like that of gods. Maybe gods are very happy, otherwise they would not say so."
"Can you believe what you say?" Mother Xue asked mockingly: "Everyone tells you that if you work hard, you can do anything in the future. Some people also tell you that you can do whatever you want, and you can do whatever. How many more?
How reliable is it? You can’t believe what everyone says, and don’t believe everything anyone says. Who has evidence? Who can prove it? Maybe the real gods are terribly troubled, frowning every day, and envious of us mortals!
"
Xue Ling suppressed a smile and nodded in agreement.
"It makes sense! Otherwise, how could the Seventh Fairy descend to earth to marry a poor scholar, and how could the Weaver Girl marry a cowherd? If the gods are so happy, why would they descend to earth to live a hard life, right?"
"That's right!" Mother Xue said with a smile, "So, let's live our comfortable life. Gods will definitely be envious of such a life."
Xue Ling was extremely envious and said: "Mom, if I live to your age, I hope I can be as open-minded and optimistic as you."
"It's difficult!" Xue's mother looked at her, "You and I can't compare, and we can't compare!"
Xue Ling: "..."
This answer is too heartbreaking!
The old man opened his mahogany comb and said with a smile: "I only need to worry about one wife and one daughter. I don't need to worry about the others too much. If I do, I don't have the ability to do so. You are different. Not only do you have a wife, but you also have four
Children, and dozens of grandchildren in the future. I don’t have the ability to take care of it, but you do. Can you take care of it? Do you dare to take care of it? So, even if you reach my age, you will not be as happy and optimistic as me!"
Xue Ling was secretly depressed: "Suddenly I feel more envious of you, what should I do?"
"Don't be envious." Xue's mother comforted her happily: "Those who are capable work harder, that's what they should do. How much intelligence and talent God arranges for you, you have to bear as much responsibility. How much is given to you, how much you have to pay. When you can't pay
Now, it’s time to go back.”
Xue Ling pinched the old mother's fleshy shoulders and said with a smile: "In order to live longer, I have to continue to work hard! You don't have to pay, so you can continue to live longer."
Mother Xue enjoyed her daughter's massage comfortably and closed her eyes.
"Parents' debts and children's debts must be repaid one by one! If you can't pay it back, if it's not finished, or if you don't pay it right, you have to continue to worry and work hard."
Xue Ling looked at her silver-haired old mother and couldn't help but ask: "Mom, now that you are at this age, do you occasionally look back on the past to see if you have any regrets in this long life?"
"I don't want it!" Mother Xue immediately shook her head: "I'm not stupid! Why do you think about such a thing! It's already a regret, why do you care about it? Thinking about it will only make you feel uncomfortable and regretful, and change will be difficult.
If you can’t change it, then why bother with it?”
"Awesome!" Xue Ling gave a thumbs up and praised: "Your mentality is really leveraged!"
Mother Xue pointed into the room and said angrily: "You, just like your father, sum up this and that all day long. With his temperament, he has regrets almost every year! I don't want to! Regrets
What is it? It can’t be changed, right? What else do you want to do with it? Just leave it in your memory and don’t even think about it, so that you can live a good life!”
"Truth!" Xue Ling was full of praise: "A good mentality and a good body are the real health!"
At this time, Xue's father, who was tinkering with the TV set at the window, stuck his head out.
"You're talking about me again, aren't you? I've guessed it a long time ago! Just from the look in your eyes and your posture, you're probably scolding me and saying bad things about me!"
Mother Xue laughed loudly: "Look! Everyone, take a look! This is a typical three hundred taels of silver here!"
Xue's father poked his chubby fingers out and scolded with a smile: "You old woman! There is a saying - if you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself! I thought about it with my toes, and I immediately guessed that you were ridiculing.
I!"
"This man's head is ruined." Xue's mother pretended to be very serious and serious, and she regretted to her daughter: "I can only think about things with my toes.
