If life could never come, I would definitely be at that best age, studying well, getting ahead, and living like my parents expected me to be.
After I started my own family and had children, I was able to better appreciate the good intentions of my parents and their concern for my studies. But at that time, I really didn't like to study, I wanted to go to work, and I felt that construction sites and factories were more comfortable than schools. I didn't expect that the punch in the face would come so quickly.
Because I had no culture, I had to work on construction sites all these years. Every day feng shui sunbath, summer against the big sun, winter braving the cold. In this strange big city, I do the hardest and most tiring work, but I also take a Weibo salary and can only support my family.
The children and daughter-in-law are at home, because I am a migrant worker in the process, the problem of the children's schooling has been solved, and later, finally there is a school that can accept it, I took the two children and the daughter-in-law to the city, and the family of four was finally reunited.
In the past, when I left work, I always had nothing to do, playing cards with my co-workers to spend time, and now the children are here, I rent a slightly larger house, and there are steaming meals waiting for me when I come home from work, so that my fatigue is swept away. After dinner, accompany the children to write homework, read, and have a full and beautiful time.
Maybe it's because I have suffered from lack of culture and can only do some lowest level work. So in my own children, I always desperately want them to know that reading is really important, only by reading, can they go out, can they not be like their fathers, can only do this kind of work. Although the children still think that they can't understand the hardships of life, I still hope that they can understand it earlier, and they can not understand too late like me, leaving a regret in vain.
The children were also very competitive, and I was very happy that they quickly integrated into the group in the new school, did not fall behind in learning, and even did well in the test. I feel that although I have not made any name for myself over the years, although I am very hard and tired every day, although my salary is small and I often do not come back, and the contractor foreman often withholds our money, those difficult years have survived. In this city, although we are very small and drift like dust, I have a happy family, a gentle and virtuous wife, two intelligent and sensible babies, which is the wealth of my life.
I worked harder, every day full of energy, thinking about the kids and the family behind me who needed me. My wife also found a job at a nearby supermarket, earning a little pocket money to supplement the family, she has always been a person who can't stay idle, and every day our lives are full and beautiful. Whenever it rains and I can't go out to work on the construction site, I help with housework at home, clean up the house, and watch our lives get better and better little by little, and my heart is very satisfied.
I am a construction site brother, life is full of hardships, but also full of happiness. Although I have experienced many vicissitudes, I still believe in the beauty of life. I believe that as long as I work hard, sooner or later I will truly integrate into the city and let my family live a better life. Fight, dude!
