Recalling that two years ago, Du Feng, who had always been excellent in studies, was qualified as an international exchange student. He had been there for two years and his major was of his own choice. Du Feng was so happy at that time that he arrived happily with the admission notice.
At that time, the relationship between mother and son was not so tense. Du Feng excitedly handed the admission notice to Yu Yan, "Mom, look what this is!"
"What is this, an admission notice! You are not in college, why is there another notice?"
"Mom, please open it and take a look."
Yu Yan opened it curiously, and the five characters "International Exchange Student" suddenly appeared. Yu Yan's eyes lit up. She knew better than anyone else that her son's academic performance had been good over the years, and she basically didn't worry about it. Now he has obtained another award.
The exchange student quota made me even more happy, "Exchange student? Son! Exchange student, that's great! I'm going to go... for two years..."
"Yes, I'll go there for two years."
Yuyan opened her mouth from ear to ear happily, "This is not easy. The exchange student's place is very precious. Son, you must cherish it."
"I will, Mom."
“Are there any professional restrictions?”
Du Feng said, "Yes, the school has given us two corresponding majors for us to choose. Mine is a design and marketing major. Mom, I want to choose a design major. It is very consistent with my current major and is close to it.
Very similar."
"Okay, son, I'll listen to you, but when it comes to choosing a major, you must think about what you want to do in the future."
"Okay, got it, Mom."
"I'll call your dad right away. Let's celebrate when he comes back in the afternoon."
Although I say this, being a mother can always give me a little more care. It is this extra care that makes the relationship between mother and son so tense now.
During dinner, when Lao Du came back from the hospital, he saw Yuyan and Du Juan sitting at the dinner table. Yuyan was panting heavily, and Du Juan was trying to persuade her, "Mom, calm down."
"I'm not doing this for his own good!"
"Are you doing this for my own good? You want to make the decision for me in everything!" A voice came from the back room, it was Du Feng.
Lao Du didn't know what was going on, so he sat down and picked up his chopsticks and was about to eat, "What's wrong? I have a conflict with my son."
"You're so big-hearted! You still eat it!" Yu Yan's evil fire came towards Lao Du.
Lao Du was also excited, "I was busy in the hospital all day and didn't even have lunch. Now I'm home and can't even eat?"
"Dad, please stop irritating my mother." Du Juan whispered at the side, then hurriedly picked up the empty bowl in front of Lao Du and put some food in it, "Let's go, Dad, go to the kitchen to eat."
Du Juan pushed Lao Du out without any explanation, and then said, "Dad, please don't provoke her this time."
"No, what's the situation? Your mother called me at noon and told me that your brother is going to be an exchange student abroad and will celebrate together when he comes home in the evening. Now this is..."
Du Juan looked at her still angry mother in the room and whispered, "While my brother was out in the afternoon, my mother filled out the major application form behind his back."
"Ah? Your mother didn't discuss this with Xiao Feng."
Du Juan shook her head.
"Then this matter is indeed your mother's fault. No matter how big it is, Xiaofeng should make his own decision. Then...can't change it?" Lao Du still had a glimmer of hope.
"If it can be changed, do you think it will lead to this? My mother filled it out directly in the notice, and when she went to register for this school, she only accepted the notice. My brother likes design, and my mother had to enroll in a marketing major. She said that after returning to China
There is a future.”
"Your mother is really... I have been worried about this this afternoon. You said that in addition to you learning silk art from her since you were a child, your brother has been arranged by her since he was born. Your mother applied for the college entrance examination. At that time
Xiaofeng is holding back his anger, if he does this now, it will explode and they will have a quarrel."
Du Juan nodded, "It was a quarrel, but it didn't last long... My brother originally said he didn't want to go, and my mother didn't agree even more. If she didn't want to go, I would learn silk art from her..."
"How can this be possible? Silk art has to be taught in primary school, so what should we do about this matter?"
"What else can we do? He has already bought a ticket to go abroad and will leave tomorrow morning."
Lao Du anticipated what would happen next, "Just watch, the matter between your mother and Xiao Feng will never be resolved every few years."
Two years later, Yu Yan looked back with helplessness. Looking at the food on the table, only Du Feng was missing from the table, "Old Du is right, this matter only takes a few years, and my son and I will not be able to solve this problem."
Open it."
Du Juan quietly took out her mobile phone, took a few photos, and sent them to Du Feng.
"Grandma is here. Grandma misses you."
After pausing for a few minutes, Du Juan typed another line and sent it to Du Feng.
"Mom misses you too."
In the evening in Beijing, the last ray of sunset is reflected, and it will be the end of the day; but when we arrive at Du Feng's place, there is a difference of 11 hours, and it happens to be early in the morning.
In the simple two-person apartment, Du Feng hurriedly washed up, tidied his clothes, and was about to go out with his books. The roommate in the other bed opened his eyes. He was a thin black guy. When he saw Du Feng, he asked, "Feng
, what time is it, you wake up so early? (Feng, what time is it, you wake up so early?)"
Du Feng answered in fluent English, "It's already 9 o'clock in the morning, George, you don't plan to go to class. (It's already 9 o'clock in the morning, George, you don't plan to go to class.)"
"The customs on your side are really good. The jet lag doesn't seem to work for you when you come here. After you graduate this time, don't you plan to stay here? (The customs on your side are really good,
The jet lag doesn’t seem to work for you here. You don’t plan to stay here after graduation this time)”
Du Feng shook his head and was about to answer when his cell phone kept ringing. It was from his sister from Beijing. Du Feng apologized and said, "Sorry, let me check the message. (Sorry, let me check the message.)"
There was a long-lost family photo on his phone. Seeing his grandma and her family together, Du Feng also became envious. Until he saw the words sent by his sister, "Mom misses you too." Du Feng hesitated for a few seconds, and he slowly
I slowly enlarged the photo on my phone and saw clearly that a strand of white hair had appeared on my mother's temples, and I felt a little sad in my heart.
Then, the roommate named George had already gotten up and came to Du Feng's phone, "Look, what a harmonious family. (Look, what a harmonious family)"
Du Feng closed the phone, smiled and said to George, "So, after the exchange students are over, I will go home, go back to Beijing, and be with family. (So, after the exchange students are over, I will go home, go back to Beijing, and be with family.)
, back to Beijing, spending time with my family)”
Du Juan looked at the message sent by her brother and already knew the answer in her heart, "Mom, don't think too much, don't worry, we are all a family, there is no such big hatred."
"Just do whatever you have to do. Now everyone has their own careers. When Xiao Feng comes back, you can cook Xiao Feng's favorite meal and chat while eating. Will this misunderstanding be solved?" said the old lady.
After talking about the children and grandchildren, the old lady's stay was even more of an issue. Yuyan wanted the old lady to stay, but because of the old lady's decisive attitude just now, Yuyan joked, "Mom, you don't want to leave the nursing home, isn't it there?"
Did you encounter a red sunset?"
"What is the sunset red? I'm already this old, but I still see the sunset red."
"Then just listen to me, just move back home, what's the point of living outside."
"Yes, grandma, please move back. You live at home, and we think you are safe." Du Juan said to her grandma coquettishly.
