It is precisely because of the prejudice against my father's drinking that I have always had.
So,
At the beginning,.
When Lu Yu said that the migrant workers had to drink,
Liu Ming looked so disdainful!
Tsk,
What is there to drink?
Others don't know,
How can I not know,
My father is an alcoholic,
No one forces him to drink at home,
Doesn't he still drink every day!
To be honest,
If Liu Ming hadn't always liked Lu Yu and Tong Tong,
I'm afraid that just now,
he would have directly sprayed Lu Yu in the barrage,
Are you making excuses for others like you,
Aren't you fooling a three-year-old child!
However,
Liu Ming's attitude,
after Lu Yu's subsequent explanation,
completely changed 180 degrees,
his disdainful face,
and his expression gradually became dull.
"Because, they are... tired!"
"When they reach that age, their physical functions and physical fitness have already begun to deteriorate and go downhill..."
"Add to that such high-intensity physical labor and workload..."
"No one's body can bear it!"
"At night, lying in bed, once they relax, they start to hurt everywhere..."
"The lumbar muscle is strained, the joints are swollen and painful, and they can't sleep at all..."
"The anesthesia of alcohol can make them fall asleep faster, It can also make them sleep more deeply and relieve the pain caused by the pain in their body..."
"If I don't drink, I will feel pain everywhere."
"After drinking, not only will the pain go away, but it will not delay the work of the next day..."
"Some of them drink just to survive with all their strength..."
"It's all for life!"
"..."
Lu Yu's words,
like thunder in a clear sky,
fell into Liu Ming's mind,
and kept echoing in his ears.
Liu Ming was stunned for a moment,
his disdainful expression,
also solidified a little bit.
What, what...
Brother Lu said that some people drink to relieve the pain in their body and sleep well?!!
This reason,
is something Liu Ming had never thought of.
Besides being shocked,
Liu Ming suddenly thought of his father.
Father...
It seems that he once told his mother that he was in pain...
One night,
When Liu Ming got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night,
he heard his father in the room, groaning and asking his mother to massage his shoulders.
However,
at that timeLiu Ming didn't think so.
Instead, he thought that
his father was just being pretentious!
After all,
you are a middle-aged man in his fifties.
If you feel uncomfortable somewhere in your body,
isn't that normal!
Let alone your age.
I am not even thirty this year.
My physical fitness is not as good as before.
I often feel pain here or there.
So,
in Liu Ming's view,
it is normal for people of his father's age to feel pain sometimes.
He didn't think too deeply about it, let alone take it to heart!
Even,
Sometimes when they were eating together,
when he suddenly smelled the smell of plasters on his father,
he would fan himself with disdain,
sit farther away from his father,
and speechlessly ask his father,
why do you put plasters on every day? Plasters are not something you can put on often. If it doesn’t hurt, it’s best not to put them on. The smell is too strong...
Faced with Liu Ming’s disdain,
his father would always smile awkwardly and not say much.
“…”
The scenes of the past,
like a movie,
reappeared constantly in front of Liu Ming’s eyes,
the details that he had never noticed before,
and the little things that he noticed,
but didn’t take to heart,
became clearer and clearer in his mind,
until he heard Lu Yu say again,
basically, people who have done hard labor for more than three years have this common problem,
Liu Ming was completely stunned!
Three years…
Three years will cause this problem in the body,
but,
but his father has been running around in the moving company,
and has persisted for seven years! !
It can be said that,
the house where my family lives now, the tuition fees when I went to college, the half-year period when I didn’t find a job after graduation and stayed at home...
all these expenses,
are earned by my father moving people!
"So, so according to what Brother Lu said..."
"The reason why my father loves to drink..."
"It's also because he can't sleep every night because of the pain..."
"He really hurts, not just being pretentious..."
"But I, I don't know anything at all!"
"He didn't tell me this!"
"..."
In many people's minds,
maybe their father is still the tall and mighty father,
they only feel that they have grown up,
but they don't realize that,
their parents are actually getting old quickly.
I always thought that,
they still impressedAs young, healthy, and energetic as in the elephant...
Liu Ming has always believed this,
He never realized that
his father,
had actually grown old and was sick!
Until he heard Lu Yu's words,
Liu Ming suddenly realized it!
In his mind,
that tall, mighty, young and strong father,
is already fifty-six years old this year!
At the age of 56, he still moved houses for others every day, repeating physical labor day after day...
At the age of 56, he could only rely on alcohol anesthesia to relieve the pain in his body...
Thinking about it,
I don't know when,
Liu Ming was already in tears,
Especially when he thought of,
Every time he saw his father drinking, the kind of bad words he said,
Liu Ming fell into deep self-blame.
I don't know how long it took,
Liu Ming suddenly wiped his tears, stood up from the chair, and walked out of the room quickly.
Outside the room,
Father was sitting at the dining table, waiting for mother to eat together.
Mother was wearing an apron,
He was heating up the lunch,
and then bringing it to the dining table.
Standing at the door of the bedroom,
Liu Ming carefully looked at his father and mother,
and suddenly found that,
they were really old,
Liu Ming had never noticed before,
there were so many wrinkles on his parents' faces, and their hair was much whiter,
especially his father,
he used to sit there,
always liked to cross his legs and play with his phone,
but now...
he was almost curled up in that chair, leaning there listlessly, with a tired face.
These details,
Liu Ming had never noticed before,
even if he saw them,
he didn't think it was a big deal,
but now,
the old look of his parents,
was like a silver needle,
piercing Liu Ming's heart fiercely.
Liu Ming took a deep breath, and the tears that he had wiped away with great difficulty almost burst out again.
Just then,
his father asked,
"Son, won't you come to eat with us again tonight?"
Obviously,
he didn't notice that his son was standing at the door of the bedroom.
Usually, his son was very busy with social events,
and often didn't eat with them at night.
"Well, my son said he ate outside after get off work."
"He didn't come to eat."
"After he came, he went back to the bedroom to rest."
"Don't disturb him."
Liu Ming's mother came over with a soup pot and said,
"My son is under a lot of pressure at work., I have heard people say before that sales work is not easy to do. Although you get a lot of money, the pressure is also high. "
"So, let him have a good rest."
"Yeah, yeah!"
Faced with Liu Ming's mother's words,
Liu Ming's father nodded and said distressedly,
"Sales is really not easy to do. In order to make some money, you have to look at the faces of their supervisors and the faces of customers, and you have to bear the anger from both sides."
"Alas, it's a pity that I don't have any skills..."
"Otherwise, I would have stopped my son from doing this job long ago!"
"My son is not even 30 years old yet. I noticed the other day that he had white hair on his head!"
"Hehe, you are still talking about your son, but you have a lot of white hair yourself! ”
Hearing what Liu Ming’s father said,
Liu Ming’s mother laughed,
“Your hair is almost completely white on both sides!”
“Take some time to dye it. Dye it black to look younger.”
“What you said is true. I am over 50 years old. Isn’t it normal for my hair to be white? I won’t dye it!”
Liu Ming’s father said with a smile,
“Besides, I just do some hard labor. My image doesn’t matter!”
“As long as I have the strength, it’s fine!”
“It doesn’t matter whether the hair is white or black.”
“On the contrary, it’s our son who is really hard-working. I will work for a few more years and save some money. Then I will let my son change his job. I will never let him be a salesperson again!”
“Sales is really not a job for human beings!”
“It’s too hard! ”
It can be heard that
Liu Ming’s father really loves his son.
When his son’s work is mentioned,
he frowns.
Although his son can earn 150,000 or 160,000 yuan a year, in the eyes of others, he is considered a glamorous white-collar worker...
But,
he knows how hard his son works.
In the company, he is not only bullied by both sides,
but also has to go out for social events frequently.
Obviously, this kid hates the smell of alcohol the most,
but he still has to put on a smile, to make others happy for those orders, and to keep drinking...
When he thinks of these,
Liu Ming's father felt particularly distressed and helpless.
That is, he had no skills.
Otherwise,
he would have stopped his son from doing sales long ago.
Find him an easier job.
Even if he earned less,
it didn't matter!
Hearing his father's words,
Liu Ming, who was standing at the door of the bedroom, felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He had never cared about whether his father was tired from work or how he was doing.
But he didn't expect that
his father was always concerned about whether he was tired and worried about his health...
Liu Ming lowered his head in shame.
And at this moment,
his motherThe father laughed.
"Haha, you two are really interesting!"
"Your son doesn't like your job and wants you to change jobs..."
"But you want your son to change jobs..."
"You two are both very dissatisfied with each other's jobs!"
Liu Ming's mother joked.
Liu Ming's father also laughed when he heard this.
After laughing a few times, he said,
"I am different from him."
"That guy wants me to change jobs... But I am so old, who would want me?"
Liu Ming's father said with a smile,
"I am almost 57 years old this year, and I have already stepped half of my foot into the coffin..."
"Who would be willing to accept me?"
"I actually asked many places, but when they saw my age, they shook their heads."
"Now many young people can't find jobs , not to mention my age!"
"Oh, only the security guard in that community wants me."
"However, the security salary is too low, only more than 2,000 yuan a month."
"Although I am a little tired now, I can at least earn 5,000 or 6,000 yuan."
"I can't bear to reduce my salary by half all of a sudden."
"So, it's okay to be tired. At this age, I can earn a few more years of money by strength, and I am already very satisfied."
"..."
Father's words,
once again made Liu Ming, who was at the door of the bedroom, stunned.
Before,
he had been thinking about asking his father to find another job,
not to do hard labor for moving houses all day long,
you can't make much money by doing hard labor...
But,
he never considered his father's age,
always thought his father was still very young...
After hearing what his father said,
he suddenly woke up!
Yes...
his father is already 57 years old,
which job position
would want someone of his age!
In other words,
at his age,
I'm afraid that there is only one way left, which is to do hard labor!
It's funny to me,
I thought about the problem too naively before,
I always blamed my father for not making progress and not knowing how to choose the best...
Now it seems,
It's not that my father is unwilling to choose,
but that he has no choice at all!
Liu Ming fell into a trance and guilt again,
Just then, I heard my mother suddenly said in surprise,
"What's wrong with you? Why is there this expression?"
Liu Ming's mother stood up from the chair,
Looking at Liu Ming's father across the table nervously,
"Is your waist hurting again?"
I saw,
Liu Ming's father's face suddenly turned ugly at this time,
Just now he was joking with Liu Ming's mother,
But suddenly,
his face wrinkled together in pain,
even,
the sweat on his forehead came out, and he reached out and hit his lower back.
"It's an old problem..."
"It's okay, the pain will go away after a while."
"I left in a hurry this morning and forgot to put on a plaster before I left."
Liu Ming's father hammered a few times,
his expression relaxed a little,
Liu Ming's mother also hurried over,
helped him press a few times,
while pressing, she said,
"You are still trying to be brave, it's not just your waist that hurts, you don't have pain anywhere!"
"Otherwise, why don't you go to the hospital for a checkup?"
"If we really can't do 3.6, we can go to a Chinese doctor to prescribe some medicine and adjust it. "I will take care of it for a while, maybe it will be cured!" When Liu Ming's father heard that his wife wanted him to go to the hospital for a check-up, and also to find a Chinese doctor to treat his body, he felt relieved instantly, and said with a smile, "Don't laugh, what am I going to check?"
"My own body, don't I know it?"
"It's nothing, just some old problems left over from work."
"Check it a hundred times, it's the same, it's just a waste of money!" Liu Ming's father said, |
"As for Chinese medicine, it's even more unnecessary."
"Mr. Li in our class went to a Chinese medicine doctor for treatment. A set of medicine cost hundreds of dollars, and it was only enough for one week!"
"You can't stop taking this stuff, you have to keep taking it."
"The process of Chinese medicine treatment is very slow, and I don't know how long it will take."
"The money I earn this month is not enough to buy medicine!"
"So, why should I take this treatment?"
"Instead of spending that money, I might as well drink a little wine!"
"After drinking a little wine, I lay on the bed, closed my eyes, and fell asleep! ”
“After falling asleep, I don’t feel any pain anywhere!”
“When I wake up in the morning, I’ll have another energetic day!”
As Liu Ming’s father said this, he lowered his voice again and said to his wife,
“Go get that bottle of Erguotou in the kitchen cabinet.”
“I need to drink a few sips to relieve the pain…”
“Hiss… It’s fine when it’s not painful, but when it starts to hurt, it’s really unbearable.”
Hearing what Liu Ming’s father said,
Liu Ming’s mother nodded hurriedly,
Then,
turned around and went to the kitchen to get Liu Ming’s father some wine.
However,
she had just taken two steps,
and suddenly stopped.
Liu Ming’s father also withdrew the painful expression on his face and immediately made aAs if nothing happened,
looked at his son who suddenly came over.
