The father and daughter sat in the office and chatted for a while. Director Liu of Finance heard that Director Chu’s daughter was coming, so he stood waiting at the door temporarily. Chu Jingyao explained her purpose of coming, mainly to discuss the Spring Festival with Chu Xiangguo. Chu Jingyao
Yao wanted Chu Xiangguo to go to Yanjing with him, but Chu Xiangguo looked embarrassed and said: "Jingyao, I plan to go back to my hometown during the Spring Festival this year."
Chu Jingyao's face immediately changed, she didn't look good, and she said: "Why, you want to go back to be your money-spreading boy? It's not like you don't know about those distant relatives in your hometown. When you were in the army and you were not at home, they were
Why did you bully my mother and me?
How much of our family's land has been seized by force, my mother was angry with them and cried countless times. When you go back, these people will definitely stick to you like dog skin plaster. They just want to get some benefits from you. Lao Chu, don't do it.
If you are confused, you will take advantage of those white-eyed wolves."
Chu Xiangguo smiled and said: "Jingyao, my father still remembers what happened back then. This time I went back not to see those relatives who had no conscience at the time. When you are poor in the city, no one cares about you, and when you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives. Dad still understands this truth.
Yes, Dad went back mainly to see the place where your mother, I and you stayed together. Dad now
As I get older and older, I still look energetic on the surface, but I am really old in my heart. The older you get, the easier it is to be nostalgic. The most sorry thing for your father in this life is your mother..." Before he finished speaking, Chu
The expression on Xiang Guo's face has become sad, and a faint cold light appears in his eyes, but it affects the regret in his heart.
"Dad, let me go back with you." Chu Jingyao felt uncomfortable in her heart, and there was a slight sadness on the smile on her face. She also missed her mother, the one who faced the loess in the countryside.
The mother who raised her with her back turned to the sky, and worked hard from dawn to dusk in the city to support her in her education. All her mother wanted was ambition. Later, although her father became rich, he never wanted a penny from him.
Alas, I think my father had his own reasons. If he had told his mother, his mother would not have died with hatred. My mother had hated her father all her life, but her father had never forgotten her in his heart, even as his daughter Chu Jingyao.
I deeply feel that in my father’s heart, my mother is the only woman in the world, and the person he loves most is her!
Chu Xiangguo looked at his daughter. This economic giant from the three northeastern provinces had countless people. Naturally, he could detect something strange from the subtle changes in the expression on the woman's face. He smiled and said, "Jingyao, are you hiding something?"
With daddy?"
Chu Jingyao smiled quickly and said: "No, Dad, please stop thinking about it." Chu Xiangguo still stared at her, Chu Jingyao smiled and said: "Dad, it's really not true, please stop thinking about it."
Chu Xiangguo smiled and said: "Jingyao, you are dad's daughter, how can dad still not guess your thoughts?"
Chu Jingyao said: "Dad, I'm afraid I'm not your daughter, but you can guess a lot. You've seen all kinds of people, and you've already got piercing eyes."
Chu Xiangguo said with a smile: "Since you know everything, you should recruit me honestly. Is it related to Lin Kun? Lin Kun plans to go to Yanjing during the Spring Festival today. Do you want to go with him?"
Chu Jingyao nodded.
Chu Xiangguo said with a smile: "Take Chengcheng to Yanjing. Yanjing is an imperial city and the Spring Festival will be lively. By the way, you can take Chengcheng around to play and let the little guy see the world. I, Chu Xiangguo,
My grandson will have to be a dragon or a phoenix among people in the future. You don’t have to worry when dad goes to the countryside. With your Aunt Jiang and Xiaoxue accompanying you, you don’t have to worry about dad having no one to take care of you. Just take Chengcheng to Yanjing with peace of mind.
."
"No." Chu Jingyao said: "I took Chengcheng to the countryside not entirely because I didn't worry about you. It was one thing to spend the Spring Festival with you. I also wanted to go back and see the place where I lived with my mother. Chengcheng didn't
After meeting his grandma, I took him to experience the place where his grandma and mother once lived. Chengcheng has never been to the countryside very much since he was so old, so he will definitely like the Spring Festival in the countryside."
Chu Xiangguo smiled and said: "Jingyao, have you ever considered that Chengcheng might be more willing to be with Lin Kun? If you force him to come to the countryside with me, will the little guy be unhappy?"
Chu Jingyao smiled and said: "Dad, don't worry, I know what to say to Chengcheng. By the way, when we go to the countryside, don't be polite to those white-eyed relatives."
Chu Xiangguo smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you are polite, they just want to ask for some money."
The expression on Chu Jingyao's face suddenly turned cold. The memories of her childhood were still vivid in her mind. The ugly faces of those people were like dirty murals that could not be erased from the depths of her memory. No matter how many years passed by,
It still hangs in my mind so dazzlingly.
Chu Jingyao said: "You are not allowed to give them a penny. If you do, I will fall out with you."
Chu Xiangguo agreed with a smile and said, "Okay, dad promises you not to give them a penny." He knew in his heart that his daughter had never been a grudge-y and petty person. The reason why she hated those distant relatives so much was because she hated them so much.
My distant relatives must have bullied the mother and daughter. When I was away in the army, I could only go back home at most throughout the year.
He visits his relatives once, and stays for up to three days each time. Every time he comes home, his wife and daughter have happy smiles on their faces. They have never mentioned to him any unsatisfactory life, and whenever he pulls
He held the hands of his wife and daughter and asked them how they were doing and whether there was anything unsatisfactory. The wife and daughter's answer every time was that they were doing well.
At the beginning, the biggest wish of his wife and daughter was to wait for him to retire from the army, so that the family could live together simply and happily. They did not seek to be rich in life, but only wanted their family to be safe. Looking back now, my wife had so much suffering alone.
He swallowed it and hid it with his daughter, refusing to tell himself, just to prevent himself from worrying so that he could happily enjoy the warmth of home during the past few days when he went home to visit relatives. However, when he retired from the army, what he got in exchange was
It's his 'betrayal'.
Scenes from the past, the voice and smile of my wife, who worked hard and steadfastly and almost single-handedly supported the family back then, appeared before my eyes. It was so clear that I had never forgotten it after so many years. She was once so gentle and virtuous, but later...
The shrew who was forced by her own 'betrayal' was unreasonable. All of this was caused by herself. She gave all her youth and sincerity to herself, but she...
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Chu Jingyao asked. Chu Xiangguo's eyes were slightly wet. The smile was still on his face, but there was a layer of sadness.
"Oh, Dad is fine." Chu Xiangguo smiled and raised his hand to wipe his wet eyes. Chu Jingyao handed over the handkerchief. Chu Xiangguo took it in his hand with an embarrassed smile and raised his head to look at his daughter, his eyes blurred with tears.
In the depths of his heart, he seemed to see his former lover, and the tears flowed more instantly. A cheek that did not show any age suddenly seemed to have aged ten thousand years. He shouted with a trembling voice: "Yuqin, Yuqin, I am
I'm sorry for you..."
"Dad, dad, I am Jingyao." Chu Jingyao grabbed Chu Xiangguo's hand and shouted, feeling suddenly uncomfortable in her heart.
Chu Xiangguo hurriedly pulled his mind away from his sadness, looked at Chu Jingyao, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Hey, Dad is so blind that he thinks you are your mother."
Chu Jingyao smiled distressedly and said, "Dad, do you love my mother very much?"
Chu Xiangguo smiled sheepishly and nodded, "Your mother is the only woman I have ever loved in my life."
Chu Jingyao smiled and pouted, playing like a little girl and said, "What about Aunt Jiang?"
Chu Xiangguo smiled and said: "Your Aunt Jiang is a family relationship accumulated over a long period of life. It is different from your mother. I liked your mother the first time I saw her."
"Why?"
"Your mother is beautiful. She is the most beautiful girl in the village. In today's terms, what is her name..."
"Village flower!"
"Yes, she is called a village beauty. Your mother was a well-known village beauty in the countryside at that time. The matchmakers who went to your grandmother's house at that time almost broke the door of your grandmother's house. When I first met your mother
, it was by the small river in front of the village. A few of us came from the city and just got off the boat.
In my hometown, I was going fishing with my own fishing rod. At that time, your mother was washing clothes by the river. Your mother had long hair with a ponytail. I remember she was wearing a blue-colored dress. At that time, she could
The few of us who knew about it were dumbfounded. At that time, I made up my mind that I must get married.
Your mother!" Recalling the sweet memories of the past, Chu Xiangguo's face stretched out with a warm smile, as if the scene happened yesterday, and the young and beautiful girl was right in front of him. Chu Jingyao couldn't bear it
Excuse me, I looked at my father quietly in front of outsiders.
In the past, he was so steady and steady, and when the cooperation involving hundreds of millions of dollars collapsed, he was not moved at all. But now when he recalled his mother, the smile on his face was so innocent, as if he was suddenly back in his twenties.
Years old, when he first went to the countryside, he was still an ignorant and innocent person.
After a long time, Chu Jingyao smiled softly and said, "Comrade Chu Xiangguo, how did you catch up with my mother in the first place?"
Chu Xiangguo came back to his senses from the reminiscences, his face became more radiant, and he said with pride: "Back then, your mother was a beautiful woman, and your father was also a handsome man. Your mother and I fell in love at first sight.
Not to mention how envious the people around me were at that time."
Chu Jingyao pursed her lips and smiled, and Chu Xiangguo said: "Why don't you believe it, my dear?"
Chu Jingyao pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Dad, do you want to hear what my mother told me at that time?"
Chu Xiangguo immediately became more interested and asked, "How did you say that?"
Chu Jingyao smiled and said, "I told you not to be sad."
Chu Xiangguo smiled and said: "I have been a man for most of my life, so there is nothing to be sad about."
Chu Jingyao smiled and said: "My mother also told me when she was drunk. She said that you chased her like a dog-skin plaster. She didn't think much of you at first. It was my grandpa and grandma who thought you were a good young man and a down-to-earth person.
Be willing to work and have culture
, I hope that after my mother gets together with you, she can also give birth to an educated child in the future. Countryside people are uneducated, so they are very envious of you people who come from the city and are knowledgeable. Later, my mother couldn't bear the fact that my grandpa and grandma were always keeping tabs on me.
When the side road arrives, just
I tried to get in touch with you, and the result was good. You are better than other young guys. You are really down-to-earth, and you often use some humor. My mother said that the most touching moment was when my grandpa did it in the mountains.
If anything happens to your life, you will take care of it
Someone pulled my grandpa out from the pile of stones. Your hands were full of blood at that time. My grandpa couldn't be saved later, and you helped the family run around, just like your own son. My mother is
That's when I made up my mind to marry you."
Chu Xiangguo felt a little disappointed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Hezhe, your mother married me because she was moved."
Chu Jingyao said: "I can see that my mother loves you. After you left us, she never thought about finding someone to live with again. She said she no longer believed in men. In fact, I know that in her heart
I can't let go of you. I didn't understand it when I was a child, but now I understand it when I grow up. My mother is the kind of woman who doesn't fall in love with someone easily. Once she falls in love with someone, she stays with her for life."
Chu Xiangguo smiled bitterly, a little disappointed, and said: "So that's it." Then he smiled and asked Chu Jingyao: "Jingyao, what about you, are you the same as your mother?"
Chu Jingyao smiled and said, "No matter what, Chengcheng and I will accompany you this Spring Festival."
Chu Xiangguo laughed, happy and warm. With his current status, all external things are just clouds to him. Only his daughter and grandson are real...
