Uncle Zhao is a self-reliant man, he built his own small factory when he was young, and in that difficult era, he relied on his tenacious will and unremitting efforts to make the factory grow slowly. But all this success was done at the expense of family time. His children rarely see him, and they are most familiar not with their father's face, but with the gifts he puts on the table every time he returns from a business trip.
In the blink of an eye, the children have grown up, and Uncle Zhao has ushered in his sixth decade. Just as he was planning how to celebrate his sixtieth birthday, a sudden illness disrupted all his plans. In the hospital bed, Uncle Zhao began to examine his life.
During the days in the hospital, Uncle Zhao unexpectedly found that the children who had felt alienated because of their neglect did not complain, but surrounded him like birds and took care of them carefully. His heart is full of guilt, he did not do a good job as a father, but he still received the unconditional love of his children.
* After that, Uncle Zhao decided to change his lifestyle. He began to cut back on his workload and focus more on his family. He takes his wife on trips, chats with the children, and participates in the growth of his grandchildren. He began to enjoy the warmth of his family and felt happiness like never before.
Uncle Zhao began to participate in public welfare undertakings, helping young people who worked as hard as he did back then. He told them that career is important, but family is the harbor of life, and filial piety of children is the greatest happiness.
At the end of the story, on his 60th birthday, Uncle Zhao said with emotion to a room full of relatives and friends: "I have spent my life pursuing success, but I have neglected the most important people around me. Now I understand that no matter how successful you are, it can't compare to the warmth of your children's 'Dad, you've worked hard'. That's my greatest blessing. ”
