My name is Zhang Dawei, I am 37 years old this year, and I am an ordinary office worker. There is a big brother who is five years older than me, named Zhang Dali. Five years ago, after the eldest brother became a door-to-door son-in-law, he rarely went home, so that his mother has always missed it. It wasn't until last month, when my mother turned 60th birthday, that my eldest brother suddenly came home with a heavy gift, which surprised me.
Time flies, and earth-shaking changes have taken place in five years. The eldest brother has changed from a hairy boy to a mature and stable man, and is now an executive of a large enterprise with a successful career. And I am also married and have children, and I live an ordinary and happy life. On my mother's birthday, the family was bustling with family and friends, but the eldest brother was absent. My wife and I were busy entertaining guests, and my mother was smiling on the surface, but I knew she was feeling a little lost.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and I opened it to the surprise of my eldest brother back. Dressed in a suit and carrying a large number of gifts in his hand, he walked up to his mother and knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "Mom, I wish you a happy 60th birthday!" The mother was so excited that she burst into tears and hurriedly helped her eldest brother up. Curiously asked why he had only come back now, the eldest brother was silent for a moment, and then told a poignant story.
It turned out that since the eldest brother became a son-in-law, he has been under pressure from life and often quarrels with his wife. In order not to worry his family, he chose to remain silent. Now, everything has passed, he and his wife are reconciled, and life is gradually improving. He decided to come back to see his mother and make up for the regrets of the past five years. On my mother's 60th birthday, my eldest brother gave my mother a special gift - a bank card, and said to my mother: "Mom, you have been working hard for us all these years, and now that you are old, it is time to enjoy your happiness." There is 100,000 yuan in this card, and you can spend it however you want. ”
The mother was moved to tears and hugged the eldest brother tightly: "Child, Mom knows that you have always had a mother in your heart, and that's enough." Seeing this, my eyes moistened. Although the eldest brother has rarely gone home in recent years, he has always been concerned about his mother, and this filial piety makes me feel ashamed. I thought my eldest brother didn't come home because he didn't want to see us, but now I understand that he also has his own difficulties. Since then, the eldest brother has often returned home to visit his mother, reconciled with his wife, and lived a more and more happy life. My wife and I are determined to go home more often to see our parents and cherish the time we spend with them.
This story taught me that family affection is priceless, and no matter where you are, you should cherish the time you spend with your family. Don't miss out on spending time with your loved ones because you're busy or negligent. Let us feel the warmth of family affection with our hearts and cherish the company of our families.
