The next day, I got up on time at 5: 30. It was still dark, so I went out and ran to the Yellow River Dam. Then I stretched out on the riverbank.

When I returned home, it was just 7: 30. My mother had already prepared dinner, and when she saw that I had returned, she invited me to eat.

Mother said, "But... But how could I hear Zhao Jie say that you are working with a country's leader … "They said they saw you on TV. Tell Mom, is that right?"

My brain is a little crazy, as a parent is like this, nagging endlessly about one thing. But I understood my mother's good intentions, so I said to my mother, "Mom, you don't have to worry about me anymore. I know what I'm doing."

"Do you know what it's like to be a parent?"

"Of course I know, it's just that..."

Actually, these days, no matter how much I say, I can't help it. I can understand what it means to be a parent. I'm 24 years old, and I may not be considered a very young person, but in the countryside, this age has definitely exceeded the normal age of marriage. I am the only son of the Zhao Family, I can understand the urgent feelings my parents have, but if they want me to get back together with Zhao Jie, that is impossible. I didn't want to upset my parents, but I couldn't satisfy them as quickly as possible. After all, I was still a true bachelor.

That night, I vaguely heard that my parents had not slept and that they had talked about my marriage all night.

The next day, my parents once again placed the matter of marriage on the table. My mother said that there were only two options in front of me, one was to get engaged to Zhao Jie, and the other was to prepare for their marriage. She was going to propose a matchmaker …

Looks like they've really made up their minds.

That's what I've been worried about!

I had to lie and tell her that I had a girlfriend in Beijing. My mother didn't believe me at first, but when I pretended to be more like her than real, she reluctantly believed me. But I had to provide the two of them with pictures of each other, or take her to the house to have a look.

Old man, always have the heart to be full.

It wasn't until I agreed that my parents finally gave in and temporarily stopped pressuring me.

The weather was good today. After dinner, his parents dragged a cart of corn to the side of the road to dry the grains. I didn't stay idle either. I stayed at home to clean up the various rooms, cleaning the yard and the yard. After that, I arranged the food in the east room and busied myself for a while. After a while, I became a native completely, covered in dust, but I had a special sense of accomplishment when I saw how neatly and neatly I had cleaned up the house.

As the saying goes, work is the most glorious, and it has been a long time since I have experienced such a rich rural life.

To tell the truth, I feel gratified to be able to do what I can for my family. Although these little things can not compensate me for the military and not complete filial piety, also can not fundamentally alleviate the hardships of parents as farmers.

At ten o'clock, I sat down to drink a glass of water and was going to help my parents dry their corn on the highway so they could come back and rest.

Suddenly, Mother He Dong ran back. Before she could even enter the house, she shouted, "Long'er, quick, quickly go over there. Wang Yishui from the Sky Spirit Village is looking for someone to beat your father up.

Hearing this, I immediately jumped up from my chair, rushed to the door and asked, "Mom, what's going on?"

Mother held my hand as she ran out the door, gasping for breath and explained, "Your father and I were drying sticks on the road (Shandong native language, meaning 'corn'), Wang Yishui from Sky Spirit Village just happened to come out with a cigarette in his mouth, and when he saw your father, he called him by his nickname. Your father was unwilling, but after saying a few words to your father, he immediately became anxious, wanting to beat your father up.

When I heard this, I was immediately filled with a strong rage. I know Wang Yishui, he's only a few years older than me. Before I became a soldier, he was already famous for being a local tyrant. I remember when I was in primary school, Wang Yishui once bullied me using his tall and big body … In short, this Wang Yishui was a huge scourge that spanned for tens of miles. He also made some friends in the county town, drinking and having fun all day, and not doing any business.

Wang Yishui is only twenty-seven years old, and my father is already over fifty. If he calls me by my father's nickname, would my father be willing?

I suddenly had the urge to kill for the people!

I didn't have time to think about it as I sprinted a hundred meters over to the scene.

The camera that made me sad gradually came into view: on the side of the road, a patch of golden corn, four or five young men beating and kicking around an old man in a ragged military uniform, who had been beaten to the point where there was no place to hide, lying on the golden corn, moaning and moaning.

The old man who was beaten was my father!

What was even more infuriating was that there were many people at the scene who stopped to watch the scene, including many of the villagers nearby, but not a single one of them came out to stop them!

There was nothing in this world more tragic and indignant than watching one's own father being bullied. What kind of feeling would that be? That kind of feeling was worse than being hit by a hammer. Under this kind of situation, no matter how calm one was, they would not be able to remain calm. No matter how calm they were, they would not be calm, and no matter how cowardly they were, they would not be weak! As I sprinted towards them, I shouted, "Stop! All of you stop!"

I frantically pushed my way through the crowd and crouched down beside my father, helping him up. My father was panting heavily, his face still dripping with blood, and his old, sad moans stung my heart. I clenched my fists and looked at the few delinquent lackeys in front of me, especially the one who caused the most trouble, Wang Yishui. To tell you the truth, I wanted to punch him in the head and see his brains all over the road. So many young men had attacked an unarmed old man. They were worse than beasts!

Wang Yishui was still the same as in his memories, but he had grown up and was also a trendsetter. He had a crew cut and was wearing a pair of large earrings, looking like a cowboy beggar, while the others did not look too good either. He tilted his head and laughed coldly, not only were they not ashamed of his actions, they had complacent expressions.

I'm not an impulsive person, but in this situation, I have to make an exception!

Looking at my father, who had been beaten, I clenched my teeth and clenched my fists.

At this time, Wang Yishui took a step forward and scratched his nose with his pinky: "Hey, isn't this that Zhao Long who went to join the army? Good boy, you want to join the army just because you can't carry on? Let me tell you, your father got beaten up for his own actions. If you are nosy, hmph, I will beat you up too! Don't look like you're a soldier! He was going to hit her without hesitation! Brother Shui, you have tasted my fist before! " Wang Yishui said as he rubbed his fists and palms together. He tilted his head to blow the earwax on his pinky, looking just like a gang of gangsters!

I stood where I was, like a statue, but the anger inside me was growing, and my clenched fists were already beginning to tremble.

Wang Yishui continued: What are you blanking out for, kid? You're not convinced, are you? "

Upon hearing these words, the rest of my friends also sneered and stared at me like a pack of wolves.

My eyes were staring straight at Wang Yishui, but I did not move an inch.

Sometimes, the power of stillness was limitless.

At the very least, my reason was out of control, and there was a firm thought that held me firmly, transmitting an important message to my whole body: I'm going to explode!

Maybe something was wrong with Wang Yishui's nose, but he actually used his thumb and forefinger to dig, it looked extremely disgusting. However, his expression was unusually arrogant, and had dug out the hair on his nose with all his might.

There was a type of person in this world who liked to use bullying methods to enrich their own lives, and this kind of person had the most sense of accomplishment when bullying people, Wang Yishui being the most typical of these people.

I said lightly: "Wang Yishui, there will be a price for doing bad things, don't you know that?"

My words were light, not only did it not intimidate Wang Yishui and the rest, it made them even more proud. Perhaps, in their hearts, they were eager for me to avenge their father, so that they could use this opportunity to display their lecherous might and further satisfy their own dirty mental needs.

Wang Yishui sneered: "Price? You want us to pay the price? Is he telling a joke? " Wang Yishui laughed so hard that his smile almost left his mouth. He turned around and looked at his friends who were by his side and coldly laughed at him like a pack of wolves that started to get excited the moment they saw food.

At this moment, my father grabbed my arm and gently advised me, "Long'er, forget it. They have a lot of people. Don't be bullied!"

Mother was afraid that I would suffer a loss so she came over to persuade me.

I looked at my father, whose face was starting to swell.

But would I be afraid of them?
