As the saying goes, "every family has a scripture that is difficult to read", which is vividly reflected in Lin Daqiang's family. Lin Daqiang is a well-known decoration foreman in his hometown, and his life is prosperous, and his temper is also notoriously straight. His wife, Hao Meili, teaches in the town's primary school and has a delicate temperament, and the two are famous in the village as "Mars hits the earth".

That night, the moment Lin Daqiang pushed open the door of the house, there was the sound of a spatula colliding with a woks in the kitchen, as well as the nagging of his wife Hao Meimei: "Daqiang, you said that you are a big man, why are you so unparticular?" The soup on the table is cold, and you don't care about your son's homework...”

As soon as Lin Daqiang heard this, his anger suddenly went up: "I'm so busy all day that I hit the back of my head with my foot, and I have to take care of my family, you treat me as an iron beater?" ”

Yo, you are very capable, you say nothing on the construction site, why do you look like this at home? ”

The two of them were arguing fiercely, and their son Lin Xiaoqiang had a bitter face on the side, and the homework book in his hand seemed to have become the most innocent victim on the battlefield.

Just as the war was about to start at home, Lin Daqiang's mobile phone rang, and it was Xiao Xu, a young man on his construction site, calling: "Big brother, it's not good, Master Wang accidentally fell off when he was installing the ceiling, let's go to the hospital quickly." ”

This sudden news made Lin Daqiang's anger extinguish most of it at once. He waved his hand at his wife: "Alas, don't quarrel yet, there is an emergency." With that, he turned and went out the door.

Immediately afterwards, after Lin Daqiang was busy in the hospital, after dealing with Master Wang's affairs, he still had to squeeze in time to attend the parent-teacher conference. Lin Daqiang listened and listened, but he was thinking: "These teachers know how to discipline children all day long, and they don't want to think about it, and it's not easy for parents." ”

After the parent-teacher meeting, Lin Daqiang returned home with a sad face, Hao Meili couldn't bear to blame him anymore when she saw him like this, and asked him softly: "How is Master Wang?" ”

The bone was broken and he had to be hospitalized. ”

So what will happen to his family in the future? He is a big man lying on the bed, who will raise him at home? ”

Lin Daqiang shook his head and didn't answer, but there was a bit of heaviness in his eyes. He suddenly realized how heavy the responsibilities of being the breadwinner of a family were; And as a parent of a child, it is even more difficult to do the best.

Hao Meili saw her husband like this, and her heart was also mixed. Both husband and wife are thinking about how to live well in this family. She walked to the kitchen and brought Lin Daqiang a bowl of hot soup, "Drink something hot, don't freeze." ”

Lin Daqiang took the soup and muttered: "Today, the principal heard that my ears were calloused, and he said that he wanted parents to pay more attention to their children." ”

So he was wrong? Our Lin Xiaoqiang's grades plummeted, you see, this time I only scored more than 50 points in mathematics. Hao Meili sighed.

Didn't I say, you teacher, why don't you care about our son? Lin Daqiang frowned.

I? I help him with homework every day, what about you? When you get off work, you know how to make a teahouse, is there a father like you? ”

The two started a new round of "negotiations", Lin Xiaoqiang listened on the sidelines, but his heart became more and more panicked.

As he was talking, the doorbell rang outside, and Lin Daqiang went to open the door, it was the neighbor Aunt Li. As soon as she entered the door, she frowned: "Da Qiang, your house is so noisy, half the street has heard it, I said, why do you husband and wife not save face for each other so much?" ”

Hearing Aunt Li's words, Hao Meimei's face was a little unbearable, and Lin Daqiang also felt a little embarrassed.

Auntie, what's the matter? Lin Daqiang asked embarrassedly.

Alas, the main thing is to come to see you, to hear you so noisy, afraid that something will happen. Aunt Li looked at Lin Xiaoqiang distressedly, "Xiaoqiang, your parents are quarreling, don't take it to heart." ”

Lin Xiaoqiang hung his head in frustration, "I know, Aunt Li." ”

Looking at this family of three, Aunt Li couldn't help but persuade: "Daqiang, beautiful, you all grew up with me, every family has such and such troubles, you can't just make a fuss." Daqiang, you have to be considerate of beauty, beauty, and don't keep accusing Daqiang. If you break up, it is not yourselves who suffer? ”

Lin Daqiang and Hao Meili didn't speak, but they had mixed feelings in their hearts. After Aunt Li left, the two looked at each other, both a little embarrassed.

It's not easy for me, it's not easy for you, we're all impulsive. Lin Daqiang whispered.

Hao Meili nodded, "Yes, we have to think about our son, we can't go on like this." ”

That night, the couple didn't quarrel anymore, they sat at the table and tutored Lin Xiaoqiang with his homework together. Although Lin Daqiang is not highly educated, he works extra hard to understand those difficult math problems; Hao Meili patiently explained Chinese reading to her son.

Lin Xiaoqiang looked at his parents, and his heart was warm. He thought that this was his parents, and although they were noisy and sometimes made him ashamed, he knew that they loved him, and they were the best parents in the world.

Lin Daqiang's change is not an overnight thing, he began to try to spend more time with his son, even if he was as tired as a dog after work, he would force himself to play ball with Xiaoqiang for a while, or read a book together. The atmosphere at home is slowly getting better, and Lin Daqiang and Hao Meili also strive to find time every day, even if it is just a few dozen minutes, and the family of three sits together to chat and talk about their hearts.

Once, when Lin Daqiang came back from the construction site, he saw Xiaoqiang on the sofa with a sad face, and after asking, he found out that Xiaoqiang was punished by the teacher for standing all afternoon because he had a quarrel with his tablemates.

Dad, I'm really right, it was he who took my things first and didn't return them. Xiaoqiang looked aggrieved.

Lin Daqiang touched his son's head, "Son, you have to learn to be patient, you see, I am on the construction site every day, don't I also endure all kinds of anger?" However, there are some things that you think you are right, and you have to stand up and say it. ”

Their father and son just sat on the sofa and talked about the big truths in life, although the topic was a bit heavy, but Lin Daqiang thought that this was also a special communication between father and son.

Hao Meili also had a problem with her work at school, and her grade was in charge of organizing a small drama performance, but she was short of money, and the props and costumes for the performance were problematic. When she went home, she discussed with Lin Daqiang.

Daqiang, can some of our old clothes be taken to school? ”

Oops, you said this early, I just dealt with a batch two days ago. Lin Daqiang touched his head, looking a little apologetic.

Hao Meili frowned, but soon her brows expanded again, "It's okay, I want to think of another way." ”

Lin Daqiang was also anxious when he saw his wife's strength, and the next day he found the young men on his construction site, and everyone gathered some fabrics and props.

In the end, the school's drama performance was very successful, the children and parents were very happy, and Hao Meimei's face also bloomed with a smile that had not been seen for a long time. On the evening after the performance, Lin Daqiang looked at his wife and son, and a warm feeling arose in his heart.

The story of this family, like every family in the town, has twists and turns, ups and downs, laughter, and tears. But putting aside those unhappiness, they strive to understand, tolerate, and love each other. Lin Daqiang learned responsibility and sacrifice, Hao Meili felt support and understanding, and Xiaoqiang learned to be tolerant and strong. In ordinary days, they do their best, wanting to be the best parents and giving each other the warmest home. This is their story, ordinary and true, simple and profound.
