I wanted to go back to when my grandparents were still alive and spend a quiet and slow day with them. Recently, I watched "Tokyo Story" and had a feeling
"Tokyo Story" This is in the Douban top 250, I watched a lot of interesting movies before I chose this one that I didn't see. It is a story of a family of parents and children getting along.
The elderly have 5 children. Four are in Tokyo and one is around. The eldest man is a doctor, the second daughter runs a beauty salon, the third company works, and the fourth elder dies in battle, but his wife has not remarried. The youngest is a teacher in the tail, that is, the old home.
The elderly go to Tokyo to visit their children. Before he arrived, the eldest son began to make a fuss about his mother moving his study desk to the hallway, explaining that his grandparents were coming, or reluctant.
At the beginning of the meeting, everyone said very well, and the next day after getting along, because of their work, they did not take their parents out. The eldest was going to take his parents and children out, because someone said that there was a child with a high fever, and the boss went to work. Say sorry to your parents and go out, saying you'll go back next Sunday.
The second brother is very busy every day, and even his parents come, and he is a little disgusted because he can't live.
The third elder is often busy and does not take the initiative to see his parents.
Only Noriko took a leave of absence from work to take the two elderly people to Tokyo for a walk.
After returning home, the three of them discussed paying money to arrange for their parents to travel to Atami, which was the second eldest's idea. Speaking of Tokyo's high consumption, where to play is several thousand, it is better to go to Atami to soak in hot springs and see the sea. Went, the days are enjoyed but at night there are many people, still walking around the room in the early morning, playing mahjong, playing cards, causing the two to not sleep, get up and fan.
The next day I was ready to go back, and after arriving, the expression of the second brother was a little ugly. Because they have a workshop in the evening, it may be more occupied to host it themselves. The daughter also "generously" said that she should tell her parents early, otherwise there would be no place to go tonight. Then the old father was ready to go to the previous friends to party, and the old lady went to Kyoko's house. In the early morning, her parents were drunk and sent back by the police, and the second daughter was full of disgust.
The next day the two were ready to go back, the mother was critically ill, and the children rushed back. After death, the children have begun to discuss wanting something from the mother's past.
During this period, the elderly also chatted with each other, saying that when the children were older, they were no longer as enthusiastic and intimate as before. After all, they all have their own lives and important things to do.
After reading it, I have a little emotion, will I become like this in the future, and I will dislike my parents when I am old. It also makes sense to think about it, having your own career and family, which seems like a burden to parents, and even more so for ordinary families who are idle after retirement. Everything is centered on your own family
When we are young, we are busy with our careers and families, forgetting the elderly in the family, when we want to be filial piety, I am afraid that it is already too late. Because I have also experienced making money outside, in order to earn more, I did not go home in the New Year, and I was deeply sorry that I could not go back to see my family when I died of illness.
