About parents
Parents are not cultured and not terrible, love and integrity are enough.
Mother Zhou in "The World of Man" is a woman like the sun, gentle, kind, simple, and industrious.
She is like the mother of many of us: there is no culture, no world, not much understanding, but kind, kind, and kind, adhere to a person's purest background.
Father Zhou is like the head of many of our families: ordinary workers, not too capable, doing things in principle, especially loving face, taking the family glory very seriously, but reasonable, not confused, and far-sighted.
Although the three sons and daughters of the Zhou family have their own destinies, their foundations are integrity, kindness, fairness, and kindness. This is the result of the subtle influence of family style and tutoring.
We can see the shadow of many families in that era: post-60s, post-70s, post-80s, post-90s, in fact, most of our parents, there is no culture.
We come from the countryside to the city, from poverty to prosperity, always retaining the integrity and kindness of our hearts, to some extent the result of parental indoctrination.
This is the purity in Chinese bones. It is a national temperament that time cannot take away.

About the child
Those children who are not out of the ordinary in the eyes of others are here to repay the favor.
In the TV series "The World", the third brother Zhou Bingkun is quite stupid.
The neighborhood committee arranged to go to the mountains and go to the countryside, and others all kinds of prevarications wanted to stay in the city, because the countryside was too bitter, and his first reaction was to be happy, because he could finally see the scenery of the countryside.
He didn't like to read much since he was a child. He entered the factory as a worker before graduating from junior high school, and later resumed the college entrance examination, although he studied hard, he still did not get into college. And my brothers and sisters were admitted to Peking University.
Later, my brother went to the central government; my sister became a professor, and he was just a small worker in a soy sauce factory, barely making ends meet with a meager monthly salary.
His father scolded him for not being angry, Zhou Bingkun was not convinced, resigned his job in a huff, and opened a noodle shop, but he was not good at experience in the early stage, and the noodle shop was hovering on the verge of closure.
People like him are destined to have no big show and cannot add light to their parents' faces.
Is it really only academic performance and high-ranking officials who can measure people's excellence?
Putting aside the worldly standards, Zhou Bingkun still exudes the brilliance of humanity.
When Zhou Mama passed out and became a vegetative person because of her sister's affair, he did not tell the rest of the family, because he was afraid that they would worry about it and affect their work and study, so he took on the responsibility of taking care of his mother alone.
During those years, he worked in the factory during the day and came home at night to take care of his mother: massage, scrub, chat with her... For several years, I never complained.
He has no lofty ambitions, and his biggest ideal is to be a good father, but when his sister was in college and had no time to take care of his daughter, he took the initiative to postpone his birth plan and raise his niece.
He is like us who are mediocre in life in the world, have no ambitions, do ordinary work, but never complain about life, still work conscientiously, and live seriously.
Although he did not become a high-ranking official and professor envied by everyone like his brothers and sisters, he was able to accompany his parents around when they needed it, and he could accompany his parents to grow old slowly.
Isn't such a child here to repay the favor?
If our child has mediocre qualifications, despite hard work and grades, but he can accept his ordinariness and sincerely applaud excellent people, then he is a good child.
If our child can only be admitted to a third-rate university and do a job that can be replaced at any time, but he is still conscientious and hard-working, then he is already worthy of life and himself.
If our children cannot shine on the lintel and add glory to their parents, but they are filial and kind, and are willing to take time to accompany their parents, then he is the best gift from Heaven to us.

About Dad
There's a guy who will always stand out for you, and his name is Daddy.
For love, Zhou Rong followed Feng Huacheng to the countryside of Guizhou, thousands of miles away from home.
It's almost the New Year, and Zhou Zhigang doesn't trust his daughter. He took what his daughter liked and went all the way over the mountains to see her.
Zhou Zhigang saw that Feng Huacheng was very good to his daughter, so he was relieved to hand over Zhou Rong to him.
In this world, only parents care about whether you are living well or not.
Later, Feng Huacheng cheated and wanted to divorce Zhou Rong. It was Zhou Zhigang again, with a body of anger to find his son-in-law to settle the account.
He pushed away his granddaughter, "You don't know how much your mother has paid for him. ”
I once saw a news item on the Internet.
A man abused his wife.
My father-in-law beat him up hard: Dare to beat my daughter, you are impatient.
There is a man in the world who will always stand out for you, and his name is Daddy.

About brothers and sisters
Brothers and sisters must know how to cherish, blood thicker than water love will eventually lead to convergence.
The feelings between the three children of the Zhou family are very good, and when there is inevitably a conflict, the misunderstanding is opened, and the estrangement will disappear.
But even between the brothers and sisters of a milk sibling, after they have a family, the necessary sense of boundaries is still necessary.
Zhou Bingyi's father-in-law was the governor of the province, but he repeatedly warned his younger sister that there was something to solve by himself and that he should not trouble his father-in-law.
Both Zhou Rong and Zhou Bingkun understood the eldest brother, and they did not take the initiative to ask the eldest brother for help until they had to.
Although sometimes the other party cannot give substantial help, the comfort and encouragement between each other are also a kind of strength to cut through thorns.
The writer Jiaojiao's mother once said:
"The subtlety and magic of blood is that when you are afraid, when you are hurting your heart and lungs;
The man who bleeds the same blood as you can instantly gain courage and strength that is both warm and powerful. ”
Yes, I don't know how many blessings I have cultivated in my previous life, so that I can become brothers and sisters in this life.
In the face of brothers and sisters, especially after getting old, do not consume, know how to cherish, blood thicker than water love will go to convergence.
Because family affection is the final destination of life.

About love
Love in any era is fanatical and tenacious.
When it comes to male and female love, the younger generation looks at the older generation, the children's generation looks at the parent generation, and the sentence that always loves to say is: "You don't understand." ”
In fact, since ancient times, love in any era is fanatical and tenacious.
The three children of the Zhou family are all long-term lovers:
The eldest Zhou Bingyi, during the Cultural Revolution, fell in love with the daughter of the "black five types of elements", and even gave up the recommended place to go to college for love.
The second oldest, Zhou Rong, took love as faith, regardless of running from the provincial capital to the mountains of Guizhou.
The old third Zhou Bingkun, who is set for life at a glance, fell in love with Zheng Juan, who had a bumpy life and dragged her family with her mouth, but she did not marry.
The most honest place in the play is to write about the fiery pursuit and boldness of young people from words to actions in that era of political turmoil.
This is the charm of love, but also the truth of human nature:
The more social turmoil there is, the more people panic and cling to love as salvation.
On the contrary, in today's prosperous world, people are materially rich and spiritually comfortable, and they no longer regard love as a necessity.
The so-called love of the city is about the projection of love as a life-saving perch when people are like duckweed.

About friends
Among friends, the person who dares to criticize you is the noble person of fate.
As the saying goes: the person who always praises you may be the person who harms you, but the person who often criticizes you must be the person who loves you.
For Zhou Bingkun, Secretary Qu is such a presence.
When Zhou Bingkun first came to work in the soy sauce factory, he complained behind his back that the leader did not admit it, and was taught by Secretary Qu that "to be a man, you must dare to be bold." ”
After Zhou Bingkun was imprisoned, he did not want to see his family again, and Secretary Qu went to him specifically to find him after learning about it, asking him not to sink, but to cheer up.
In every critical period of Zhou Bingkun's life, whether in thought or in life, Secretary Qu did his best to help him.
It is a very fortunate thing for a person to live a lifetime and meet someone who dares to criticize you and is willing to tell you the truth.
He is like a beacon on the road ahead, leading you to a better future.
The noble person of fate, whether it is to accompany you for a ride, or accompany you for a lifetime, is worth remembering for a lifetime.
A "Human World", a life history.
The memories of a generation's youth reflect the changes in Chinese society. Family, friendship, love, fireworks in the world, joy and sorrow.
The story of the characters in the play has come to an end, and our lives continue.
May everyone in the world, you and I, be happy and peaceful.
May you ride through a thousand waves and remain by your lover's side. I also wish you not to forget your youthful appearance, and you are not afraid of white hair.
In this life, it is worth it, remember to cherish everyone who loves you.
