Chapter 23 One family of three, Dad Xiao is the ugliest
Once a person has a certain thought in his mind, he will continue to lean in the direction he needs most.
The conditions put forward by the tutor are too tempting. You can finish your studies while taking care of your son. At that time, as a graduate student, you can participate in a lot of research, get fees from it, and develop new designs by yourself. If the results are sold You can also get money, and he was recommended to go there, you only need to pay the daily expenses and the tuition of your son.
Furthermore, it is a euphemism for the tutor to say that foreign education resources are not much different from domestic ones.
For hundreds of years, there are still differences in educational concepts and methods at home and abroad. More people are more willing to send their children abroad, even if their own country is a superpower, but sending children abroad is like a layer of gold plating. Yes, so everyone enjoys it.
Although Xiao Li didn't feel that foreign countries were worthy of admiration, as far as his major was concerned, wouldn't it be better if he could go abroad for further studies, and if he continued to specialize, he would become better?
Xiao Li thought about it for more than half a month, weighing the pros and cons, his future, the growth of his son, and the company of his parents.
During the Spring Festival holiday, Xiao Li took her son home to spend the New Year with Xiao's parents and Xiao's mother.
In the mall:
"Son, do you remember which candy I bought for An An last time? Is it on the third floor or the fourth floor? I forgot, An An likes it very much, so I will buy more later." Mother Xiao walked away with her bag on her shoulders. In front of Xiaoli.
At this time, they were shopping for New Year's goods in the mall, and the mother and son went up the escalator while talking.
Xiao Li recalled for a while and said: "It seems to be in the candy store on the third floor, but the last time we visited was in the second district, not the third district."
"No, that's fine. I'll see if there are any in the third district. If not, I'll go to the second district to buy them."
"Okay." Xiao Li replied.
"By the way, buy more fruits, and eat big fish and meat during the Chinese New Year. An An also eats more to supplement vitamins. You should also give him more fruits and vegetables in normal times, but you should also eat all kinds of meat in a balanced way. Just do it."
"I know, I usually listen to you and give him food. Look at how healthy he is." Xiao Li always smiles unconsciously when talking about her son, and her expression is much softer.
"Mom, buy more food. Last time you asked me to cook the stewed crucian carp. I have made it several times since then. My craftsmanship is getting better and better. I will cook this year's New Year's Eve dinner. You can just sit in charge and direct it."
"That's fine, then you can buy whatever vegetables you want. You can buy more vegetables and store them in the refrigerator. Their vegetable market will not open until the third day of junior high."
Xiao Li: "Okay ~ Mom, you are so kind."
As he said that, he pushed the cart to the food area, and Mama Xiao followed with her bag.
Xiao's mother: "Hmph~ That's not true, do you think you grew up so big out of thin air?"
Mom suddenly had a proud face, and Xiao Li smiled even more obsequiously, "Oh mom, I know you are the best, most beautiful, and gentle person, look, An An likes you more than me, it wasn't you that time Once he came, he ignored me."
"No, you don't even know how much you were attached to me when you were young."
"Mom, the tutor talked to me again. If I go to graduate school, the school will give me a chance to study abroad."
"Then go, that's great. I didn't agree with you going to work so early." Mother Xiao didn't care, but encouraged Xiao Li instead.
"If you go, it will take three years, and you may not even be able to come back for vacation."
Hearing what her son said, Xiao's mother looked at her son with encouraging eyes: "In the past few years you have been in college, you have spent your vacations on part-time jobs, and you have only been home for a few days. Why don't you go abroad, and it's not where you live. Besides, even if it is a permanent residence, your dad will arrive after ten hours of driving after submitting the application, and we can visit you at any time."
Xiao Li: "Mom, your reaction is different from what I imagined."
Xiao's mother squinted at her son, "What kind of reaction do you imagine? Be furious, and then resolutely object? Son, who do you imagine your mother to be? Don't think I don't know. Just treat me as a mental patient. I know that I am in menopause, and I can't control my temper when it comes to me. But, it's not for no reason that I lose my temper. Sometimes you are really angry, so you can't stop scolding. "
"Who said we treat you as a mental patient? We obviously treat you like a queen mother and pamper you. Mom, after I leave, you should stop losing your temper with my dad. You said he always let you If he can't hold it any longer and really quarrels with you, I'll see what you will do."
Xiao's mother became anxious when she heard it, "He dares."
"He doesn't dare now, but there is a saying that if you don't do it, you won't lose it. Look at how gentle and considerate you were before. You are a model of a loving mother and a good wife. I know it's all because of me. People change, but Mom, it’s wrong for my dad to lie to you, but inheritance is the last thing you can do. You can’t control it and you can’t change it. This is a problem left over from history. It can’t be solved now. My dad didn’t tell you before , I’m just afraid that you won’t be able to accept it, you won’t be able to accept me. He didn’t tell me, but he just wanted me to grow up with more sunshine and no burden. He carried it all by himself. To him, we are the most important. To you, He was a great husband, and to me, he was a great father."
Xiao's mother's heart beats faster and her brain heats up with her son's long talk. She knows this, but she still needs to vent. Using the reason of menopause, her husband and son are tolerant and caring for her.
"Okay, don't quarrel with him in the future, you, make your own well outside, and I will bring you An'an, and I will apply for early retirement at that time."
"Oh my mom, it's not easy for you to bring me up, so you can go to work until you retire, and I'll take care of baby An An." Xiao Li said, wrapping her arms around her mother's shoulders, with a casual look.
Mom can't give up anything for her son and grandson. She shouldn't make a choice, and Xiao Li won't let her make a choice.
"No, you went there to study, what are you doing with a child then?" Mother Xiao became anxious when she heard that her grandson was about to be taken away.
"Don't worry, the professor has already contacted me. Near the school there is a kindergarten where non-immigrants can also enroll children. The conditions in all aspects are very good."
Seeing that her son has already made arrangements and made a decision, Xiao's mother stopped answering the phone.
The mother and son suddenly fell silent because of An An.
"Forget it, I'll make the New Year's Eve dinner. Make more. My grandson likes to eat and buy more. I don't know if he is used to eating or not when he goes abroad."
After a long silence, Mama Xiao said while putting vegetables in the shopping cart, and then put all kinds of meat and vegetables. When the shopping cart was full, she sighed silently.
"Ouch~" Xiao Li hugged Mother Xiao's shoulders again, "My dear mother, you are so kind to your grandson. If you are so kind, I will be jealous of your son." Xiao Liqiu acted shamelessly.
"Go away, why are you jealous? I have treated you so much more than your son over the past 20 years, so jealous and uncomfortable? Little white-eyed wolf," Xiao's mother lightly poked her son's hand on her shoulder with her finger. forehead.
"I believe that when she is abroad, what An An misses most must be her grandma. Grandma will always be the first in my An Anxin, followed by grandpa."
Xiao Li, who was jealous of her son, was not ashamed but proud, and continued to act like a baby to her mother, completely ignoring the gazes of people around the mall.
"That's necessary, hmph~" Xiao's mother didn't care about her son's acting like a baby on the surface, but she was already ecstatic in her heart. It was more than ten years ago that her son had grown up and acted like a baby to her. Buried deep in memory.
Now she is very disdainful of Xiao Li's coquettishness on the surface, but she has already betrayed her in action. Xiao's mother took her son to the medicine and took a bottle of medicinal wine.
Xiao’s mother took a bottle of the most expensive medicinal wine, Xiao’s father’s, Xiao’s father has a problem with the cervical spine, and usually puts ointment on it when it hurts. Xiao’s mother occasionally heard from a colleague that this medicinal wine can relieve pain, so she bought it for him. After using it, it really works. Yes, I have used it for many years, and I have developed a habit.The last bottle was almost used up, and today just in time for the New Year's Day, the big promotion can save dozens of dollars at once, and Xiao's mother took another bottle after taking one bottle.
After buying vegetables and fruits, the mother and son went to the clothing area.
Xiao Ma and Xiao Li were the only ones to buy new year’s goods today, Xiao Ma was in charge of buying, Xiao Li was in charge of pushing, so Xiao’s father was arranged to take care of An An’s children at home.
"Why don't you call and ask your dad to bring An An out?" Mom Xiao said suddenly.
"What's wrong mom?"
"I have to buy new clothes for my child during the Chinese New Year. No, he will be upset. Tomorrow will be New Year's Eve and the store will not be open."
Xiao Li: "Didn't you buy it?"
Xiao's mother: "I bought it, but I tried it on him last night. Isn't it a bit long? Ask your dad to take him out and try it on."
Xiao Li: "Oh mom, An'an is growing up, and he can't fit in too many clothes. Have you forgotten the baby clothes he used to wear before he had time to wear them? He couldn't fit in two sets of clothes a day If you buy it for him, some of them won’t fit in before you wear them.”
"Did I buy so much for him?" Xiao's mother was a little suspicious that her son was lying to her, but it seemed that she couldn't help buying good-looking clothes, trousers and shoes suitable for her grandson, and then sent them directly to her son.
Now I heard from my son that I want to take my grandson abroad, so I plan to buy a few more and buy longer ones, so I can wear them even if I have a long body.
Because of Xiao Ma, Xiao Li saved a lot of money in his son's clothing, but the child grows too fast, and many clothes are really too short before he can wear them. Xiao Li analyzed rationally and found that his son grows too fast. , I hope my mother will show mercy and buy less clothes.
Xiao’s mother was very beautiful when she was young, so now she is in her 40s and is almost 50 years old. She is in her mid-mature, and she still has a charm. It should be her type. In addition, she is a university professor, a special kind of teacher. The smell of the book is strong.
Today Xiao Ma wore a warm-colored pullover in a dark long coat, a pair of denim wide-leg pants, and a pair of black high-heeled shoes on her feet. With today's makeup, she looked extraordinarily gentle, and she looked more than ten years younger. Xiao Li looks after her, so one can imagine that she was very beautiful when she was young.
Xiao Li felt that her mother was very beautiful since she was a child. If there is a problem with her appearance, it must be her father who is holding her back. Fortunately, what should be inherited is not inherited, and what should not be inherited has been inherited from the next generation. .
In fact, Xiao's father is not very slow-looking, neither buck teeth nor bald, thick hair, regular facial features, deep eyes, high nose bridge, moderately thin and thick lips, a handsome old man.
But if you compare the family, you can only say that there are three members of the family, and Dad Xiao is the ugliest. Now that Xiao Anan is born, looking at his growth trend, Xiao Li and Fu Chuan should be perfectly inherited to him, both internally and externally. So now we are a family of four, and Dad Xiao is the ugliest.
The author has something to say: in a family of three, Fu Chuan is the ugliest
