When I grow up, I will spend time with my parents.

Cherish the present with your parents, even if we are not together

the day before I left, my mother came to my room for a chat. "the saury should be on the market after a while," she said. "Japanese saury is so delicious, the skin is thin, your small stove is baked for 9 minutes, it's golden and silver, and it's simple and delicious. Your father and I ate a lot of sauries that year." Yes, the autumn wind is rising, and there is saury already on sale in the supermarket, but at present, the fat of the fish is not thick enough and the quantity is not much. I haven't bought it yet. I haven't bought it yet. It won't be in season until half a month later. It was only 100 yen and RMB 6 yuan. You can eat it every day and eat every meal.

that year, I gave birth to pearls, and my parents came to the island and lived for three months, which is the longest time we have been together since college. Later, they came to Quan Quan for more than a month and went to pearl primary school. I also went back to life a few times. But I haven't been together for more than three months, and I don't think I'll have a chance in the future. I am very glad that those three months of island life left a good memory in my mother's heart. Saury, blue sky, typhoon experience, not enough red leaves, Shinkansen, Hiroshima, twittering primary school students passing through the neighborhood every day carrying schoolbags, if there is one drawback, it is that "the community is too quiet as if no one lives."

for teenagers who leave home, apart from most vague and sometimes vivid childhood memories, it seems that it is not easy to find common memories with their parents when they grow up.

long Yingtai once mentioned his parents in the preface of a book, "when I was 19 years old, my parents were to me, probably like street trees in the city." The trees were planted on both sides of the road, and the dirty water spattered by the speeding wheels sprayed on the trunk, and the fine ash floating in the sky came down quietly, covering every leaf that opened upward. Street trees use their feet to guard the road, but face up to catch the dust of the whole city. "Street trees will not pour a lifetime of dust back on you, but they will deal with you with stone-like silence and cold amnesia."

now, when I think about it, on my way to and from school, have you ever stopped to take a closer look at the street trees on both sides of the street? When I came home this summer, I saw that cedar, Chinese acacia, and French sycamore that grew up. I lamented the beauty now, but I was unconscious when I was a child. They were there all the time, quiet and motionless.

when I was a 19-year-old freshman, I had a week's holiday after the summer military training. I was wearing a ponytail and wearing a white T-shirt from military training. I went to Xi'an to play alone. That was also the starting point where my little "self" began to germinate. after that, my sophomore and junior began to work, and I couldn't stay at home for a few days every summer vacation. I ran away in a hurry.

my graduation job caught up with the economic situation. I went to work in Mentougou from Shijingshan for the first two years and then changed my job to work from the West Fourth Ring Road to the East Third Ring Road. In the busiest two years, I spent 2/3 of my time on business trips, and my face was covered with pimples. Mom said that she was always squeezed by low air pressure in the plane. I took traditional Chinese medicine for almost a year. My father hasn't retired yet, and my mother occasionally comes to Beijing to stay for a few days. I can only pity when I go home early and come home late without seeing the sun. Apart from taking a day off or going out with her on weekends, she spends most of her time at home alone, and she doesn't want me to worry much. I won't stay long before I go back. As I became more and more economically independent, I began to run crazy, and naturally, I didn't go home during the long holiday. On May Day in Guizhou and the National Day holiday in Yunnan, there was a "record of my footprints" on a website. I was extremely satisfied when I saw that the map was gradually filled with small red flags. As for going home, I could only put off for a few days during the Spring Festival. Later, when I left Beijing, I couldn't go home for the Spring Festival, and it was even farther away to see each other.

after pregnancy, my parents said that they would come to take care of me, and my passport and visa would be ready soon. I envisioned the inadaptability of those who did not know a foreign language but forgot that for them, who seldom travel on business and their living environment remained the same for decades, flying and going abroad was a big deal, especially my mother, who was very nervous all the way, while my father remained curious all the time. He sat by the window and looked at the sea near the airport. It was said that I saw a lot of big fish, and then I thought it was the white edge of the waves. The climate was too different, and Osaka was unusually hot that year. They were still wearing coats in the morning when they left Taiyuan. After leaving the airport in the evening, they were knocked out by the heatwave and humidity in early September. My mother said, "how can it be so hot?" what's more, they, who have been living in the dry north, are particularly unaccustomed to the humidity of more than 50%. The next day at home, my mother had a rash on her leg. She thought it was just that the humidity was too high and she didn't take it seriously. later, the rash didn't go away and began to hurt, and she didn't tell me.

when I was about to give birth, I was at home with a big belly. Last time, my family Tian Ding was the eldest nephew of the second sister's family. After ten years, maybe I hadn't seen a live pregnant woman for a long time. My mother thought that my belly was particularly big. I ate ice cream barefoot with the air conditioner on and scared her even more. She insisted that I put on my socks and said that I was afraid of getting cold in the future and wouldn't let me eat cold food. My indifferent attitude might make her more worried. But my mother said that she would not go to the birth company when she was born, and she was afraid. At that time, she had already given birth to four of us before the age of 30, and the second sister was still difficult to give birth. I only remember the helplessness of "I didn't know what to do when I was born, but I had no choice but to put forward specific suggestions such as the Ramez breathing method." however, she still gave me an important hint that when she gave birth to us, the labor process was relatively fast, and it is said that this factor is mostly inherited, my mother and daughter.

at that time, maybe we were separated for too long, or maybe we were in a completely different environment. Although we were supposed to be the closest parents and children, there was a subtle sense of strangeness in the air. I tidied up the room with Loft on the second floor, which had a relatively high roof. My parents once said that they didn't like the low roof of the building. There was the TV in the room, and they chose what CCTV could watch on satellite channels. There is an electric kettle on the small table next to the TV so it is inconvenient for them to go downstairs to the kettle in the kitchen to pick up the water. On the day my parents get home, they will go to middle school. When I picked them up in Beijing, I went through the formalities with them and got on the plane together. Although I didn't understand the language, I still seemed sincere. I wiped the kitchen clean with a big belly at home because my mother was the pickiest about the kitchen. I also toiled a pot of steamed bread with noodles, which didn't ferment well, maybe these painstaking preparations made them feel more like guests from afar. After dinner, my parents drilled into the room on the second floor, but I didn't always sit by their bed and talk as I did in my hometown. I just hid in my room and read, and I didn't call my parents during the whole sleepless night when I was in labor pains.

and my mother across the wall also endured the pain in her leg for several days. Only after I gave birth to the pearl did she tell me that Lao Zhong took her to the hospital because of herpes zoster, low immunity, and tiredness on the road. I had been delayed for a few days when I went to see the doctor, hurting my leg nerve, and then I had neuralgia for a long time. I blamed her for not saying it earlier. She just said she was afraid of giving me trouble.

Pearl was born smoothly, and indeed, as my mother said, it only took me more than two hours from the densest labor pains to the pearl to come out. When my parents went to the hospital, they saw a deluxe lunch of pregnant women with ice water. I heard that I could start washing my hair the next day. I also quickly accepted the reality. "the old rules are not all right," my mother said. When I got home, my parents began to "wait on Yuezhi" carefully. My father brought me every meal upstairs. When the pearl slept, she urged me to hurry up with Rest. One night, when the pearl ate the milk and stayed awake, my mother took it and said I would pat it for you. She wrapped the pearl in a towel and sat on the sofa patting her back gently. The light was dim. I could see the patience of her mouth pursing and the infinite tenderness of her face when I sat next to her. From that moment on, the intimacy between us slowly came back.

there are no children who do not know that small babies are the glue between families. As usual, middle school students go out early and return late for training or business trips every day. Apart from eating pearls that can sleep and cry, there are three of us in the family. Because of pearls, we all relax. Our parents will come to my room in the morning after getting up, just like in my hometown. As long as I am at home, both of them will come to the room to call me in the morning, and my father will open the curtains. Open the window for air, put down the crib guardrail, my father stood by the bed, my mother sat next to me, staring at the sleeping pearls, not enough. Sometimes when the pearl is awake, I take her to my parents' room after feeding. I sit against the wall, and the pearl is in the middle of the bed. They both lie on the edge of the pearl, left and right, looking at "big eyes" and "nose is a little flat." my mother would also purr her shins like pearls and frogs, saying, "long, long, long legs" in her mouth. Sometimes they even sent the "mother cow" back to her room, Rest, leaving only pearls, "No, no, no. The doors of the room were open, and I heard them talking in a daze, just like when I was a child, with an inexplicable sense of peace of mind.

spent a long time together, but also found the other side of my parents that I couldn't see before.

Mom has always been ingenious. Soon after she came to my house, she could quickly use all the electrical appliances, especially those in the kitchen. The rice would be kept warm after the rice cooker was steamed. Sometimes my mother poured in the cold rice left the day before and pressed the start button to heat it automatically for 5 minutes. I haven't found this function for several years. Mom likes to make pasta. She makes noodles for us at noon every day. She also brings many bags of yeast to make steamed buns for us. Fried cruller, Japanese flour is divided into high gluten and low gluten. Mom has never failed to mix the two kinds of flour in proportion according to her feeling. Dad likes to eat fish but can't get used to sashimi from the island country. All kinds of grilled fish help a lot, especially autumn saury. Sometimes he can have two for dinner. Dinner took a long time to prepare, and I often leaned against the kitchen door to chat with my busy mother, listening to her talk about the secrets of "Gao's cuisine". I felt that my mother under the lampblack lamp was like a goddess.

Dad kept his usual regularity and bravery. He got up at 6: 00 in the morning, went out for a walk, walked from the neighborhood to the national highway, and came back to buy bread on the way. Dad loves sweets, especially bread with bean stuffing. The nearby convenience store opens at 6 o'clock every day. He goes to buy some bread, and sometimes he goes to another family bakery that opens at 7 o'clock. Dad found that "handmade bread is more expensive than a convenience store." He was in charge of going shopping in the supermarket every day, so he learned to say, "I can't speak Japanese." occasionally he went with his mother to tell her, "ask you if you have a card at the cashier first, buy a frozen one and ask you for ice cubes." if you buy a box lunch and ask you for chopsticks, you just wave your hands and look at the screen to give Zhang Da Qian, and she will find you. "the door is clear. There is another thing I admire most. At that time, I was still self-taught Spanish with NHK Education Channel. I would buy Spanish magazines at the beginning of every month. What I wanted to buy in September was that it was already October. My father volunteered to buy it. I forgot to take a sample of the old magazine. At that time, it was not so convenient for my smartphone to take pictures at any time. My father sketched the words on the cover of the magazine and took them on a piece of paper. Do not know how to communicate with the clerk, not only bought the October but also asked the clerk to go to the warehouse to find out how he did it. I asked him how he did it. He said that he first got the October, then wrote 10 words on the paper with a fork, changed it to 9, pointed to the back of the store, pointed to his glasses to search, and then got it all. Before the pearl was a full moon, her father took her out and said, "when we pearls grow up, we have to see the world through wind and rain." thinking about my character, which is never afraid to go to any new place, it is properly inherited from my father.

during this period, although the foreign son-in-law of Lao Zhong was like an outsider, he did not forget that he did not often order all kinds of food for us and buy nutritious drinks for his father. After staying for three months, his father, who returned home, gained 10 jin. Almost every Sunday, Lao Zhong would drive his parents out to play. The three of them went to the seaside by boat, went to nearby temples, and went to see red leaves. I was at home alone to take care of the pearls, and I also found that it was not so difficult to take care of the children. When Pearl was two months old, we took the Shinkansen to Hiroshima and accompanied our parents to see the Miyashima Bird House in the sea. The Peace Park in Hiroshima is as blue as a wash.

after Pearl was born, Lao Zhong gave me a sewing machine, which could be put on the table. Pearl slept longer in the afternoon after the full moon. My father was watching upstairs. My mother and I were playing with the sewing machine in front of the living room window downstairs. My mother always used a pedal sewing machine. This automatic sewing machine was too small for her, but it was enough for me. My mother instructed me to change a few pairs of trousers. I cut the jeans I didn't wear short and decorated them with colored thread. The scene of our mother and me talking together listening to the "da" voice of the sewing machine in the warm autumn sun remained in my mind all the time. This is also a special way of communication between my daughter and her mother. I'm so happy.

recently I had time to make a video call with my parents. When I was sorting out the photos, I saw the photos I took for them that year. Nine years ago, I was so young. At that time, the pearl who clenched her little fist and frowned was almost 9 years old, and there was only one direction for the day. When I look back, the photos I used to be younger than they are now. I cherish the present with my parents, even if we are not together now.
