My name is Zhang Ming and I am a senior engineer in a large manufacturing company. Last month, I had a particular work challenge. Our company has received a major order to complete a very large engineering project in a short period of time. I was assigned as the person in charge of this project to make sure that the project ran smoothly.
The task was stressful, but I didn't back down. I put together a detailed plan, assigned tasks to each person, and set a strict schedule. However, while my team and I were working hard, something unexpected happened at home.
One day, I sent 1,000 red envelopes to my grandson, whom I hadn't seen for two years. Unexpectedly, my son-in-law laughed at me: "Zhang Ming, you are really generous, my grandson gave him 1,000 red envelopes when he was only two years old, this is too extravagant!" I slapped him in a fit of anger, and my son-in-law was angry and annoyed, and immediately called the police. Things went into a lot of trouble, and the whole family was thrown into embarrassment and unpleasantness.
Looking at my son-in-law's angry face, I felt a sense of guilt in my heart. After all, he is my daughter's husband and family. I shouldn't have beaten him, and I shouldn't have hurt my family because of such a small thing. Even if it is his rude words, I should face them calmly and not be angry.
At the same time, I feel extremely guilty about my grandson's love. Because of the impulse, I made him the fuse of family conflicts. All this made me feel very irritated and anxious, and I really didn't know how to communicate with my son-in-law and explain the misunderstanding.
Just when I was feeling down, my daughter walked into the house. She saw my tired face and asked worriedly what had happened to me. I told her the whole story. The daughter was stunned for a moment, and then said thoughtfully: "Dad, I know that you gave the red envelope for the good of the child." But you also have to understand that the husband is just worried about the family's financial situation. ”
I took a deep breath and nodded. My daughter's words made me feel sad for a while. Perhaps it was my own exhaustion and anxiety at work that led to my neglect of family affection. I realized that my son-in-law didn't mean to work against me, but out of concern for the family. I suddenly felt a little weak because I didn't have much time to spend with my family other than work. I reflected on my actions and sincerely apologized to my son-in-law.
While my son-in-law was communicating with me, there was a crying sound from the house. We rushed into the bedroom, only to see my grandson crying with tears on his face: "Daddy and Grandpa don't want me anymore!" It turned out that my grandson was crying outside, and accidentally fell down in order to attract our attention. The daughter quickly picked up her grandson and comforted her lovingly.
Seeing my grandson's crying made me feel even more guilty. The grandson is the pearl of the family, and his words and tears make the whole family feel distressed. Our generation is busy with work, and often ignores the warmth of home and the sincerity of family affection. This incident made me reflect deeply on my own behavior, and I realized that family and family are the most important things, and that work should not be a barrier between me and my family.
We hugged each other as a family, and my grandson's crying gradually subsided. Such a small episode made me understand the importance of family more clearly, and also made me understand that to maintain a good family relationship, each of us needs to take care of it with our hearts. Therefore, I hope that from now on, I can set aside more time to be with my family, feel their warmth, and care for their growth. May I be a better father and a better husband.
Just then, the phone rang. It is an urgent notice at work. I glanced apologetically at my family, and they all nodded understandingly. Perhaps, work will continue to occupy most of my time, but I vow that I will never let my family and family go unnoticed again. I'm trying to find a balance so that my family and my work can be cared for and cared for.
At this moment, my daughter hurried over, and when she saw me arguing with my son-in-law, she immediately rushed up: "Dad, how can you start beating someone? This is too much!" My daughter burst into tears and was very emotional. I bowed my head guiltily, I knew I was doing something wrong, and I needed to ask myself questions and face this relationship again.
In the face of my daughter's blame, I felt extremely guilty and heartbroken. She is my beloved daughter, I have held her in the palm of my hand since I was a child, and I have been very fond of her, and now, because of the impulse, I have even affected the feelings of my daughter and son-in-law. The guilt and self-blame in my heart made it difficult for me to calm down, and I deeply regretted my actions.
A few days later, my son-in-law and I finally sat down and had a serious conversation. I apologized to my son-in-law, admitted my mistake, and hoped to be forgiven by him. My son-in-law also said that he would forgive me, but he also hoped that I would not lose my temper at every turn. We talked for a long time, and finally resolved the conflict. In the days that followed, I treated my family with a more tolerant attitude and tried to repair the damage caused by this incident. Our family has gradually regained its former harmony and warmth.
However, just as family relations are gradually easing, new challenges arise at work. The project I took on was bogged down due to some vendor issues, and the strict timeline was no longer guaranteed. It made me feel anxious and frustrated, and I didn't know how to deal with this sudden situation. I feel helpless in the face of such a dilemma, but at the same time, I firmly believe that if I work hard, I will be able to find a solution.
However, when confronted with my son-in-law again, he seemed to be full of hostility towards me. He accused me of disrespecting him and of doing it to him without permission. Even when I explained to him and persuaded him to forgive, he hesitated. Looking at the anger in my son-in-law's eyes, I felt guilty and helpless in my heart. I didn't expect a spur of the moment to lead to such a situation.
That's when my daughter came over. She looked at me and her husband with a look of embarrassment. "Dad, what's wrong with you two?" her voice revealed worry and anxiety. I felt even more guilty because I had put my daughter in a dilemma.
"It's nothing, daughter-in-law, we just had a fight, it's not a big deal. The daughter's husband said gloomily. "No, how can you quarrel?" the daughter's tone was full of helplessness and grievance.
Looking at my daughter, the guilt in my heart became even stronger. She is a good daughter in my heart, I grew up watching her, and her every move touches my heart. Now, because of my momentary mistake, my daughter is in such a dispute, and I really feel sorry.
The daughter found the red envelope in her grandson's hand, she gently took it, and said, "Dad, you have prepared so much money for your son? Her words were full of gratitude and concern, and it warmed my heart.
When my daughter's husband saw this, his expression became more and more ugly, and I knew that he must not want to, but he could not say it clearly. In the face of my son-in-law and daughter, I felt extremely helpless. How can I resolve this conflict?
Soon, the police arrived at my house, and my son-in-law complained, "That's what he did, slapped me!" and I was taken to the police station and realized that I had done something wrong. At this time, the contradiction in my heart became even more intense. I was eager to apologize, but I didn't want to bow my head in front of my son-in-law. When we arrived at the police station, the police listened carefully to our statement. I understood that I had to face my actions and that no one could help me with this. During the waiting at the police station, I felt extremely anxious, remorseful, and hoped that everything would be resolved as soon as possible, and I would go home and explain all this.
Soon, a police response team arrived at the home. My son-in-law complained to the police, saying that I had beaten people unreasonably. When the police saw my son-in-law's blue nose and swollen face, he asked me why I was beating. I suddenly felt the seriousness of the situation, but I was angry in my heart. I briefly told the police that I don't remember what my son-in-law said hurtfully. However, the police obviously doubted my statement and asked both parties to go to the police station together to negotiate a settlement.
I had mixed feelings, on the one hand I regretted my impulsiveness, and on the other hand I felt offended and angered by my son-in-law. At the police station, my daughter also arrived. When I saw her, I felt even more sad, she was hurt because of family conflicts, and her face was full of confusion. The police asked us to give a confession about the incident first, and my daughter and son-in-law sang and curryed favor with the police, and I bowed my head silently. I'm afraid that this family conflict has not been solved so easily.
