Seventy-five-year-old science and engineering man, ten years of grinding a sword, completed a long novel of 500,000 words, "For the old is not respected", or "Never say old". I hope you will pay attention to it and put forward valuable comments.
Liu Zhigang has been influenced by traditional Chinese culture since he was a child and knows the truth that filial piety comes first.
From the time he first understood things, he felt that his father's love was like a mountain. At that time, my father knew everything and knew everything.
When he was in elementary school, he knew that his father was originally a high-ranking official at the level of the director of the bureau's office, and he was a second-generation official. This gives him a unique face among his classmates.
Later, he heard that his father had served as a soldier, made meritorious contributions, and had been received by Chairman Mao, and he was even more proud and proud of his father.
As a child, he had held his father's legs, crawled back and forth under his crotch, and even sucked on his feet. Sometimes he also found delicious candy in the seams of his feet.
By the time he entered elementary school, he had grown to his father's waist. After graduating from elementary school, he was already on the shoulders of his father.
After graduating from high school, he was unconsciously taller than his father.
He was constantly improving and growing, but his father had been making no progress in his position as chief of staff.
By high school, his father knew everything, he understood. What he understood, my father didn't necessarily understand. What he didn't understand, my father certainly didn't understand.
The mountain of his father slowly collapsed in his mind. He began to look at his father head-on.
By the time he graduated from college and joined the workforce, his salary soon exceeded that of his father by five times. His father was still standing still in his office chief.
He was finally qualified to look down on his father.
As soon as he set out from Zhongzhou City, Liu Zhigang went on the road with the idea of protecting his father.
He let his father ride the new car and ride the old one himself; he let his father be in front and behind his own temple.
They ride more than one hundred and twenty kilometers a day. The pure ride time is about eight hours. Plus eating and resting. More than ten hours a day are spent on the road.
At five o'clock in the morning, Liu Yan shouted to get up. After riding for more than ten kilometers, the sun gradually rose from the east.
Two hours later, there were people on the road. The breakfast stall in the rural town began to open, and Liu Yan casually found a roadside stall to eat breakfast.
When I got tired halfway through, I stood on the side of the road and rested for ten minutes. Have lunch until twelve o'clock in the afternoon or one o'clock in the afternoon, arrive at your destination at five o'clock in the afternoon, and have dinner around six o'clock.
Arriving at the destination and staying in the hotel, Liu Zhigang's waist was sore and his legs hurt.
Small hotels in the township do not have a lift. When he went upstairs, he took two steps to go up. Compared to Daddy, his wings seemed much more tender.
He did not understand that he was so young and vigorous that he was inferior to his father, who was nearly sixty years old.
Entering the hotel room, Liu Zhigang sat on the bed with his buttocks on the bed, not even taking off his shoes, and his limbs were stretched out and lying flat.
Liu Yan said: "Your generation, all grew up in the honeypot, did not suffer hardships, did not get tired, and is the generation that lacks exercise the most. ”
Liu Zhigang rolled his eyes and ignored him. Take out your phone and call your mother to report that you are safe.
As soon as the phone was dialed, my mother answered it immediately. Every day at five o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Ye guarded the phone, waiting for news from Liu Yan's father and son.
After answering the phone, he talked for almost half an hour.
Liu Yan had already washed his face and feet, and said to Zhigang: "How can you be a mother-in-law, endlessly, a net waste of telephone bills." ”
"Mom is assured that we have eaten and stayed in the hotel. We are not tired. Liu Zhigang added one last sentence and quickly hung up the phone.
Putting down the phone, Liu Zhigang rubbed his calf and stomach and shouted: "Mom, I'm tired, tomorrow I will ride less!" ”
Liu Yan said unceremoniously: "This is all the result of your mother's pampering of you." I think back then, if you had listened to me, you wouldn't have been so bear-wrapped and soft-hearted. ”
Liu Zhigang said unconvincedly: "If there is no protection from my mother and listening to you, I will not have a happy childhood, and I will definitely be miserable and miserable." ”
Liu Yan retorted: "If you listen to me, you may not have a happy childhood, but when you grow up, you will definitely be like the sun in the sky." ”
Looking at Liu Zhigang's tired and paralyzed look, Liu Yan changed his tone and asked with concern, "How?" Or shall I press your feet and rub your legs?" After saying that, he was going to come up and press Liu Zhigang's leg.
Zhigang struggled not to let his father massage. Liu Yan pressed his son down and made him lie on the bed, first massaging his neck, then massaging his shoulders, and then running his hands down the spine until he reached his hips. Then start at the hips and push both palms up on each side of the spine, and when it reaches the neck, push both hands towards the shoulders.
After repeating this a few times, he began to knead his thighs and calves again.
Finally, helped him take off his shoes and socks again. To massage his feet.
Zhi Gang was flattered, and he hurriedly got out of bed to pack his bags, and limped out to fetch water to wash his face and feet.
He was a little ashamed to think that I was going to accompany and take care of my father, but now I let my father take care of himself.
Liu Yan smiled and said: "This time riding Lhasa with me, even if I make up for the lesson of teenagers' hard workouts." I bet that when you return to your unit, you will definitely be promoted. ”
"Promotion? Are you kidding me? Last time the boss almost let me quit my job. Zhi Gang said with his mouth open.
"That's your boss who has no eyes." If you resign, you will leave immediately, and such a boss will not serve. ”
"What are you talking about! As soon as the boss heard that I was taking leave to accompany you to Tibet, he immediately looked at me differently. He also bought his dad a bike that day. Let his dad learn from you and actively participate in cycling exercises. ”
"It seems that I have wronged him. You boss is enough for the grandfathers! Follow him and do a good job later. ”
Liu Yan said and then added: "By the way, does your ass hurt?" ”
"It hurts."
"I forgot to tell you that tomorrow you won't wear pants, it might be more comfortable."
Although Liu Zhigang was slightly inferior in the first few days, he was young after all, and after a week of exercise, he finally got through the difficulties.
On the 310 National Highway, cars come and go, and the river flows endlessly.
Many trucks carrying tens of tons are like behemoths, speeding on the road. Some cars even have a big trailer.
The man's tall driver entered the cab like an ant riding on an elephant.
Zhigang seriously doubted whether they could still see the roads around the car.
Liu Yan led the way in front of him and always rode fast. Often passing by large trucks.
Zhi gang reminded him repeatedly and uselessly. I had to deliberately say that I was too tired and could not ride fast, forcing my father to slow down.
Liu Yan scolded and grinned along the way, and Zhi Gang only listened to the wind.
At noon, Liu Yan wanted to drink two sips of wine, and Liu Zhigang said, "No! We can't drink and drive. ”
Liu Yan snorted angrily and said: "The law stipulates that car drivers are not allowed to drink and drive, and bicycles can also be counted as cars?" ”
Liu Yan said emphatically: "Who said that a bicycle is not a car?" Not only the car, but also the self-propelled. ”
Liu Yan wants to drink at night. Liu Zhigang also agreed with him about three chapters of the Law, and each drinking should not exceed two or two. Although Liu Yan was not happy, he had to do so.
One night, Liu Yan drank two more sips of wine, pointed at Zhigang and scolded and grinned: "I am not raising a son, but raising a father." I'm not looking for a rider, I'm looking for an agent who is spying on me. ”
Liu Zhigang was not angry either, he smiled and said, "What is an old child?" You are now an old child.
When I was a child, I was young and had to rely on you to support me. So, I have to listen to you.
Now that you're old, you're an old kid, and you have to live on me, so you have to listen to me. ”
Liu Yan said indignantly: "I don't want you to retire, I have a retirement salary." No matter how much you earn, I don't blush or spend your money, why should I listen to you? The next time I ride a long ride, I will not take you to play. ”
The owner of the hotel listened to the quarrel between the two grandfathers and laughed closely. He said to Liu Yan, "Blessed are you old man!" Have a good son! ”
After a week of hard work, the two grandfathers passed through Luoyang, Sanmenxia, Tongguan, Huashan, and Weinan to reach Xi'an.
Departing from Zhongzhou, you pass many attractions along the way. Liu Yan felt that the tickets were too expensive and would not enter at all.
His reason is that rabbits do not eat nest grass, and the attractions in front of the house can enter sooner or later, so why not stay in the most convenient time?
Liu Zhigang has a lot of opinions about how his father passed through many attractions.
Say that the bottom of the small wave is a man-made landscape, do not look at it.
But the West Yuehua Mountain, south of the Qinling Mountains, north of the Yellow River, mountains like axes, peaks like knives, strange and beautiful, majestic and spectacular. Such the world's first strange mountain, how can you not look at it?
Lintong's Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang, majestic and magnificent, is the famous eighth wonder of the world, how can you not look at it?
He asked his father, "Do you not want to enter, or do you think that the ticket is expensive and do not want to enter?"
Liu Yan said: "Of course I want to enter, you count how many attractions there are along the way." Xi'an alone has more than a dozen scenic spots such as the Terracotta Warriors and Horses of Qin Shi Huang, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, Huaqing Pond, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the Forest of Steles. How much time does it take to enter everyone? How much does it cost?
I'm retired, and there's time. But I can't delay you. ”
Zhigang said, "Leave me alone, I took three months off, and I have enough time to accompany you." ”
Liu Yan sighed and said, "Riding Tibet may be the most wrong decision of my life." I have done nothing in my life, and then affected your future, I am ashamed of our Ancestors of the Liu Family. ”
"You only know how to care about my future, why don't you care about my life?" Riding such a long road every day almost exhausted me. Liu Zhigang cried bitterly.
Although Liu Yan does not enter the scenic spots, he is keen to stamp the post offices of cities and towns passing by. He prepared a white cloth. Draw a map from Zhongzhou to Lhasa. Every time he passed a post office, he stamped a mail in the corresponding position. Sometimes the post office wasn't working, and he could wait an hour or two.
After waiting for a long time, Liu Zhigang was very dissatisfied. Asked Liu Yan: "What is the use of stamping a postmark?" It's nothing more than showing off to others that you've been here before. We need to prove to others which village and which township we have been to? ”
Liu Yan said: "The postmark is indeed meaningless, but it is always a memorial.
Years later, when I saw it, I could recall that I had been to that place. I can recall the scene. ”
Father and son fight each other as they move forward.
After leaving Shaanxi Province and heading west, the road is even more difficult. Sometimes against the wind and rain, sometimes over the mountains.
They are like the two practitioners of the Western Heavens. Without hesitation, to the west, and then to the west...
When you get to Tianshui, MaijiShan is a must-see. Liu Yan still didn't want to go.
Zhigang said, "You originally said that the scenic spots in Henan Province and Shaanxi Province did not enter. Tianshui is the boundary of Gansu!"
Liu Yan asked very worriedly, "Did your boss approve your leave for a few days?" If we delay on the road for too long, will it make him unhappy?"
