Chapter four hundred and seventy-first incomprehensible confusion in the heart
Chapter 471: The inexplicable confusion in my heart
..."Xiaodong, come in quickly! It's so cold, don't stand outside!" Song Xiangmei greeted her son.︽
"Got it, Mom?"
After nodding, Liu Dong stepped across the second-floor platform of the main entrance of the hall, pushed open the faded wooden door and walked into the house. The first thing he saw was a familiar living room of thirty square meters.
There is a nave in the center of the living room, which was created by my father. In front of the nave is an orange-red Eight Immortals table, with two chairs on each side.
There is also a foldable dining table and several benches erected next to it. There is also a sewing machine in the left-hand corner. Apart from these, there is no other furniture.
Liu Dong's home has none of the standard equipment in urban living rooms, such as sofas, coffee tables, TVs, fans, etc. The only thing he has is a large radio, which has long been unable to receive any signals.
Adjacent to the living room, there are four doors. The first one on the left is the parents' bedroom. Next to it is the utility room, where some flour, steamed buns, and things used by Liu Dong's brother and sister to go to school are placed.
Completed books, etc.
Of the two rooms on the right, the first is the largest and most important study room in the family. The adjacent room is sister Liu Fei’s boudoir, and Liu Dong’s room is in the wing!
"Mom and Dad, didn't you light the stove?" Liu Dong said distressedly after entering the house and feeling the same temperature inside and outside the house.
You must know that it is already mid-December, and the winter solstice will be in a few days. The temperature outside has already reached minus three or four degrees. Even in January, the temperature will drop below minus ten degrees. For people from the northern mountains and east
Said. The temperature is already very cold!
Moreover, it’s not like my parents have ever practiced Kung Fu. In addition, as they are older, their resistance to cold is far less strong than mine.
After listening to Liu Dong's words, Liu's mother smiled and said, "You and Feifei are not at home. Your dad and I live at school half the time. Isn't it a waste to light the stove at home?"
"Yeah, besides, it's not too cold here, so there's no need to light the stove!" Liu Jianqing agreed.
However, no matter how many explanations are given, it is actually just because they would rather suffer themselves and leave the remaining money to Liu Dong and Liu Fei.
Liu Dong has experienced this kind of thing countless times since he was a child. Although he knew that his parents were tired before, he has never felt the selfless love for him in his parents' hearts as deeply as now!
"His!" Liu Dong took a deep breath and tried hard to hold back the tears that had reached the corners of his eyes.
"Mom and Dad, you do it first, I'll get the things from the car in!"
"I'll go with you!"
"No need, Mom! I can do it by myself!" Liu Dong quickly stopped his mother and walked out alone. He didn't want his parents to see him cry!
Looking at his son's back, who was taller and stronger than himself, Liu Jianqing nodded happily, "My son has grown up and is much more sensible than before!"
"He must have suffered a lot these years by himself outside!" Song Xiangmei covered her mouth and said with a choked tone.
"Oh, why are you crying! Isn't my son doing well now? Besides, he is a boy. If he is not allowed to suffer a little, how can he become a talent?"
Unfortunately, Liu's father's original words of comfort had the opposite effect. After Song Xiangmei gave her husband a fierce look, she said angrily: "My own son, I feel sorry for him!"
"Okay, okay, your son, I won't argue with you!" Every time the two of them quarreled, Liu's father almost always gave in.
…
"Xiaodong, why did you buy so many things? How can we eat so much?" Looking at the chicken, duck and fish that almost filled half the house, as well as all kinds of vegetables and fruits that I had seen and never seen before,
Song Xiangmei said with a distressed look.
How much money is wasted!
But Liu Dong was still taking it home again and again!
"Mom, it's okay if you can't eat it. It's such a cold day. If you put it outside, it won't break. Just eat it slowly!" After Liu Dong finished speaking, he put a lot of boxes in his hands on the Eight Immortals table in the middle and put them
Open the top one and take out a black suit. "Dad, I bought this suit for you. You can put it on and see if it fits you!"
"Don't buy such nice clothes for your dad because he can't wear them!" Song Xiangmei said with a smile.
"Who said that you didn't see me wearing it before we were married?"
"That was before. You were young before, but now you are fifty-three. Can you wear such good clothes in class?"
"Okay, Mom! Isn't it just a suit? My dad can wear it whenever he wants!... Come on, dad, I'll put it on for you!" As he said that, Liu Dong took off his father's cotton-padded coat and helped him.
Put it on.
"Wow, dad is so handsome!" Liu Fei clapped her hands beside her and said with a smile.
"Really?" Father Liu was obviously very happy with his daughter's praise.
"It fits quite well, but the shoes on my feet are a bit off!" Liu's mother said with a smile.
"Wait a minute!" As he said that, Liu Dong picked up another box from the table, opened it, and took out a pair of black round-toe shoes, "Dad, these are the shoes I bought for you!... Oh, by the way, there's this one too.
!”
As he spoke, Liu Dong took out a palm-sized box from his jacket pocket. After opening the lid, a simple and elegant men's watch appeared!
"Patek Philippe?" Liu Jianxing blurted out after taking the watch from Liu Dong and taking a look at it.
"Dad, do you know him?" Liu Dong said in surprise. He originally thought that his father, who had never left Qingzhou, would not recognize this world-famous watch!
"know!"
Looking at the familiar trademark on the back cover of the watch, Liu Jianqing's face showed a look of reminiscence. That serious and loving figure was just like him and his son today.
"Dad?" Liu Dong said softly after noticing the change in his father's expression.
In fact, Liu Dong has always been doubtful about some things in his family since he was a child. For example: their family has no relatives in Beixingluo Village, Zhuliang Town, or even in the entire Qingzhou City, and every time Liu Dong mentions
When it comes to my grandparents, my father will be furious and even beat him several times. After getting angry, my father always locks himself in the study alone and doesn't come out all night or even all day. And my mother
She always sheds tears silently but says nothing.
Gradually, as I experienced more and more times, grandparents, and even uncles became a taboo topic in the family.
Of course, in addition to his grandparents, Liu Dong also asked his grandmother and grandfather, but every time he asked his mother, he shook his head with a complicated expression, but never said a word.
After asking too many times, Liu Dong did not dare to ask again!
Although every Chinese New Year, he was very envious of other peers who could receive lucky money and even eat sumptuous meals when visiting relatives, but his family had never had this. As long as Liu Dong could remember, there were more than a dozen
During the Spring Festival, from the first to the seventh day of the lunar month, the house was deserted.
Until now, relatives are still a topic that Liu Dong is very interested in, but now that he is older and more sensible, he can no longer raise such issues that make his parents sad.
And after his own analysis over the past few years, Liu Dong also came to the conclusion that his parents were not natives of Qingzhou. They moved here from other places, because there are very few teachers in rural middle schools who are as knowledgeable and talented as their parents.
For example, my father knows calligraphy, Chinese painting and Go, and is proficient in Guqin and Xiaodi, and is very, very good in each of them. Apart from receiving professional education, it is obviously impossible to reach the level that can be achieved by self-study!
In addition, like his father, his mother is proficient in Western oil paintings, sketches, gouache, and piano! Moreover, Liu Dong’s home has a Steinway upright piano, although Liu Dong still doesn’t know how it got into his home.
of!
The reason why Liu Dong is able to master oil painting, sketching, Chinese painting, calligraphy, and musical instruments such as piano is also due to the training of his parents since childhood!
When he was young, he didn't explore the reasons for his parents' erudition too much. However, during the more than three years he was away from home, through his own study of sculpture, Liu Dong deeply understood and wanted to master it well.
How difficult it is to reach a very high level in a skill. This also led to more speculations about his parents’ life experience and origins. Unfortunately, until now, Liu Dong can’t figure this out clearly unless his parents take the initiative to tell him.
question.
"It's okay!" Liu Jianxing, who had woken up from the memories of the past, put the Vacheron Constantin watch on his left hand with his hands a little trembling.
"Dad, that's great! Keep it with you from now on, don't take it off!" Liu Dong said.
"Haha, forget it! The watch strap worth hundreds of thousands is out. If it gets bumped, I won't feel so bad for your dad!" As he said that, Liu Jianxing shook his head, took off the watch and put it back in the box.
"Dad, you buy things for use, and this watch is the same. If it breaks, I will buy you a new one!"
"Okay, Dad knows you are filial! But now you ask me to wear such an expensive watch, and I'm not used to it! Let's talk about it later!" With that, Dad Liu put the watch on the table, and then put on his suit and leather shoes.
Take it off.
Liu Dong couldn't defeat his father, so he had to let him go!
"Mom, I bought this for you!"
As he said that, Liu Dong took out another set of dark red coats from several boxes and handed them to his mother, followed by the same shoes and watches. As for the jewelry, Liu Dong didn't bring it this time. The glass emperor green he had unlocked before,
Or the top-grade jadeite of the same grade, such as the glass-type chicken oil yellow and the glass-type purple-eye jadeite, are all mortgaged and locked in the bank. Therefore, there is no top-grade jadeite in hand.
Moreover, only the top-grade jade can be worthy of being given to my mother.
"Oh, Mom is old, how can she wear this kind of red!"
"Who said that? Mom, you are not old at all!" Liu Dong said quickly.
