I will never forget that day, my son Xiao Ming suddenly called ** and said that he was coming back from abroad, and asked me to call his sister's family, saying that we must prepare a hearty meal, and he would take his new wife home to give us a big surprise.
Mom, I have been working hard abroad for many years, and now my career has improved, I have saved some money, and I am ready to return to China to start a business. My wife Xiaoyan and I will be back today, you must make a few of my favorite dishes, and we will catch up with our family in the evening! "* On the other end, Xiao Ming's happy voice made me excited.
Good, good! Son, you have the final say, I'll go grocery shopping and cook! I happily agreed to his request. My son Xiao Ming went abroad to work in his early years, and although he occasionally went home with a ** over the years, he has rarely returned to China. Now that he is finally coming home and saying that he will come back with his new wife to surprise us, I, as a mother, am both happy and excited.
I immediately called ** to tell my eldest daughter Xiaohong and asked her family of three to come to the house for dinner tonight. Xiaohong was also very surprised when she heard that her brother was coming back: "Mom, is it really? Xiao Ming hasn't been back for so many years, I miss him so much! ”
For today's family dinner, I got up early in the morning and went to the vegetable market to buy a lot of vegetables and meat. Xiao Ming's favorite foods include chestnut chicken, braised pork and ground three fresh. I also bought some good wine and fruit, thinking that the family would be reunited after a long absence, and tonight I must have a good time catching up and revisiting the family relationship between my children and daughters.
After a busy day, at seven o'clock in the evening, Xiaohong's family came to my house on time. As soon as I opened the door, I saw my daughter sitting on the sofa with her niece in her arms.
Mom, you've made so much delicious food! Xiaohong saw the table full of delicacies and said happily.
It's all Xiao Ming's favorite food, let him taste his mother's craftsmanship. I laughed.
Xiaohua, you see that your uncle will be back in a while, and our family can be reunited again! Xiaohong said happily to her daughter Xiaohua. Xiaohua had a lollipop in her mouth and smiled sweetly.
I looked at the happy appearance of their mother and daughter, and I was very relieved. Today the family can finally be reunited, all thanks to my son's return home. When he comes, I must catch up with him and learn about his experiences abroad over the years.
I got up excitedly and hurriedly went to open the door. Standing outside the door were my son, Xiao Ming, and a beautiful foreign girl, followed by a black man carrying a large suitcase.
Mom, we're back! Xiao Ming opened his arms and gave me a big hug.
Welcome home, son! "I couldn't help but shed tears of joy.
Xiao Ming is tall, much more mature and stable than when he left. And that girl is very beautiful, and at first glance she is a mixed-race child.
Mom, let me introduce you, this is my wife Xiaoyan. Xiao Ming took the girl's hand and said.
Hello Auntie, I'm Xiaoyan, it's a pleasure to meet you! "The girl spoke Chinese fluently and greeted me politely.
Please come in, please come in, and her family is also in there. "I'm busy getting people in.
Okay, okay, let's eat first. Today is a big reunion for our family, so we must celebrate it to the fullest! I interrupted their conversation with a smile and motioned for everyone to use their chopsticks and enjoy the long-lost family reunion.
In a happy and peaceful atmosphere, we were about to start the chopsticks to eat, but we saw Xiaohong's face suddenly show a sad expression. She looked at the table full of delicacies, and her eyes showed deep hesitation and pain.
What's wrong Xiaohong, aren't you happy? I asked with concern.
For a while, there was silence in the room, and everyone was stunned.
It turned out that Xiaohong's husband Li Feng was laid off half a year ago and has not found a stable job. The only financial ** in the family is Xiaohong's income from the make-up Xi class, and she has to bear the mortgage and various expenses of her daughter, and she is living in poverty. To make matters worse, their daughter Xiaohua also suffered from a strange illness that required long-term** and expensive medicines, which made the family's already poor financial situation even worse.
Sister, why didn't you tell me earlier, even if you have difficulties, just speak. You are my relative, and our family will definitely support you if there is anything! I quickly comforted Xiaohong and told her to wipe away her tears.
Xiao Ming and Xiao Yan also hurriedly persuaded Xiao Hong and asked her not to be pressured. I can see that Xiao Ming also blames himself for not going home often in the past, and he doesn't know much about the situation at home.
It's okay Xiaohong, we are a family, and if we have difficulty saying it, we can find a way to do it, and we don't have to carry it alone. Xiao Ming held Xiao Hong's hand and said sincerely.
Yes, sister, we will help you if you have any difficulties, and today is just a casual meal for the family, so don't mind too much. Xiaoyan also gently comforted Xiaohong.
I was very distressed, and quickly hugged her: "Sister, don't cry, I'm here!" I'll transfer you some money to pay for the medical expenses immediately, don't be afraid, just pay off the mortgage slowly, as long as our mother and daughter are united, there is no problem that can't be overcome! ”
Don't say that, there will always be difficult times, and we will definitely get through them. I stroked my little red hair in distress.
Xiao Ming looked at his sister's bitter appearance, and his face was also very solemn. I know that my son must also blame himself in his heart, because he has not been in the country all these years and has not fulfilled his responsibilities as an older brother.
Xiaohong and I froze. It turned out that Xiao Ming returned to China this time to help his sister's family in difficulty! Moreover, he has already saved a lot of money abroad and is able to provide financial support.
Xiaohong and I both burst into tears when we heard this. It turned out that the son had been thinking about the situation at home, and now he finally had the ability to come back to help everyone.
Xiao Ming, thank you! Xiaohong said excitedly. "You will always be my best brother! ”
Sister, we are a family, don't be so polite. You can raise flowers with peace of mind, and I will do the rest! Xiao Ming hugged Xiao Hong.
Seeing the scene of the brother and sister supporting each other, I was so moved that I couldn't speak.
Thank you, son. You make Mom so proud! I hugged Xiao Ming with tears in my eyes.
Okay, okay, today is the day of reunion, don't be sad! Let's have a good meal first, and then discuss how to help Xiaohong and them next. We'll get through this! Xiao Ming smiled and persuaded everyone.
Xiaohong wiped away her tears and smiled again. I watched as the family returned to their happy appearance and nodded with relief.
That's right, with such a united and friendly family as ours, there is no difficulty to overcome! I know that when Xiao Ming is back, we will be a happy home again.
