My name is Li Jianqiang, I am 58 years old and I am a retired worker. I have a son, Xiaoqiang, who is Chinese New Year's Eve years old and works in sales for a foreign company. The daughter-in-law, Mei Mei, is a girl in the local city, beautiful and lovely, with a cheerful and lively personality.
I am an introvert and spend most of my time at home after retirement. Xiaoqiang works in other places all the year round, and Meimei has become an important companion in my life. Father and daughter often cook together, watch TV, and talk and laugh together. Her pretty little face was always full of sunshine, which made me feel good for an old man.
It was a weekend, and Xiaoqiang went out to work. Mei Mei and I were bored at home, so we watched the TV series together. The play is a love story between young men and women, and we shook our heads and sighed.
"Hey, the little couple is in love, and they are tired of being together every day, and they are quite happy. I sighed.
Mei Mei smiled and said: "Yes, uncle, unlike me and Xiaoqiang, our relationship has faded in the past few years of marriage, and we don't even have time to talk about love." ”
I was a little surprised, and asked casually, "How come?" Xiaoqiang is understandably busy with work, but your relationship between husband and wife should be quite good, right?"
It dawned on me that this was the case. Looking at Mei Mei's shy little face, a strange feeling suddenly rose in my heart. This beautiful and intelligent girl, who was snubbed by my cynical son, wanted to give her more care and warmth.
"Uncle, let's talk about something else, I shouldn't have mentioned this to you. Mei Mei said with a red face.
"It's okay Meimei, you just treat your uncle as a relative, you can tell your uncle if you have any worries. I replied in a gentle tone.
After that, I found myself paying more attention to Meimei's state. I would ask with concern when she seemed preoccupied, "What's wrong Meimei, did Xiaoqiang make you unhappy again?" Then she would tell me the grievances in her heart. I tried my best to give her advice and make her happy.
Gradually, Mei Mei would take the initiative to come and chat with me, talk about her favorite singers, watch TV series, or go shopping to buy new clothes. I was also happy to listen, and every now and then I interjected a few witty remarks that made her tremble. Father and daughter get along like old friends.
One day at noon, after we finished cooking lunch together, Mei Mei said excitedly: "Uncle, I bought new clothes at the mall yesterday, I'll try it for you later."
Watching Mei Mei try on my newly bought clothes one by one, I was very excited. She first put on a pink dress to set off her fair skin. Then he changed into a sexy camisole, revealing his snow-white shoulders and arms. I couldn't take my eyes off it, and my heart was racing.
"Uncle, do you think this dress looks good?" Mei Mei turned around and asked me with a smile.
"Good looking, very good-looking. I blurted out.
"Then I'll wear this tonight, and wait for Xiaoqiang to come back and surprise him. Mei Mei said shyly.
When she mentioned my son, my heart sank and my face changed. Mei Mei was keenly aware of my abnormality and asked with concern, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, maybe I'm a little sleepy when I'm full at noon. I pretended to be light-hearted.
Mei Mei came over and sat beside me and said softly, "Uncle, I can see everything." You like me, don't you?"
I was speechless. Mei Mei continued: "Actually, you are so good to me, I have long seen it. It's just that you are an uncle, and I have never dared to face this fact. ”
"Uncle, there is only one life, why should we suppress our sincerity?" Mei Mei stared into my eyes and spoke firmly.
Afterwards, I saw Mei Mei lying quietly in my arms. She had a look of satisfaction and happiness on her face that I had never seen before. I know that I gave her happiness that Xiaoqiang can't give, and it makes me feel gratified. But soon, I was ashamed of our immorality.
"Meimei, we did something we shouldn't have done. I'm your uncle, and we shouldn't have this relationship. I said heavily.
Mei Mei stroked my face, her eyes full of love: "I know it's not right, but I really love you." Let's just let this be a secret for the two of us. ”
I nodded and hugged her into my arms. I know that this has opened a Pandora's box, and that our relationship will face great challenges and risks. But at this moment, I just want to hug my beloved girl tightly.
After that day, there seemed to be an inexplicable relationship between me and Meimei. We would look at each other with a special look and then look away in embarrassment.
One day, Xiaoqiang went out to work, and Mei Mei and I were at home. We finished dinner together as usual and watched TV for a while. In the dead of night, Mei Mei came to my room and lay down on my bed.
"Uncle, just let me sleep with you, I miss you so much. Mei Mei said coquettishly.
My reason was on the verge of collapse, but I finally couldn't hold back, hugging Meimei and entangled with her. We had a passionate evening.
"I know, uncle. But I can't control myself, I love you so much. Mei Mei had tears in her eyes.
"We have to stop, for the sake of Xiaoqiang, but also for ourselves. "I try to be determined.
"Well, I'll listen to you. Mei Mei left my room gloomily.
In the days that followed, we were all very careful to keep our distance. But I will still think of our lingering in her smile and movement. This sweet and painful memory makes me uneasy day and night.
One day, Xiaoqiang suddenly said that he wanted to take a week off to go home. Mei Mei and I were surprised.
"I'm so busy at work, why did I come back all of a sudden?" I asked.
"I'm homesick, I haven't been with my wife for a long time. Xiao Qiang smiled and hugged Meimei's shoulder.
My heart went to my throat. and Meimei glanced at each other, and they both saw the panic in each other's eyes.
In those days, I tried to avoid being alone with Meimei. But Xiaoqiang was busy with his friends and left the two of us at home.
"Uncle, I miss you so much. Mei Mei came to me in the evening, her eyes full of longing.
"No, Xiaoqiang is at home, we can't take risks. I forced her to leave.
After two days like this, Xiaoqiang finally had time to save with Mei Mei. That night, I tossed and turned alone in the dark. Feelings of jealousy, remorse, and self-blame surged over me, and I almost wanted to go crazy.
I walked over and looked, and it turned out to be a few scattered wheat stalks. The straws look like they've been thrown here at random.
I looked closer with a frown and noticed that one of the wheat stalks had some white marks stuck to it. My heart chuckled, vaguely aware of what it might be, but I couldn't believe my guess.
At this moment, Mei Mei ran over in a panic, her face flushed: "Uncle, what are you doing here?"
I silently pointed to the wheat stalks, and Meimei's expression said it all.
That image immediately came to my mind, and I couldn't help but feel like a knife. Mei Mei saw that my face was ugly, so she quickly took my hand and said, "Uncle, I'm sorry, it's me who is not good, don't think about it." ”
"It's okay, Meimei, you're his rightful wife, and it will happen sooner or later. I could barely squeeze out a smile.
Mei Mei had tears in her eyes, as if she wanted to say something, when Xiaoqiang's voice suddenly came from the house: "Wife, where are you?"
Mei Mei hurriedly whispered to me: "Uncle, don't tell Xiaoqiang about this yet, I'll explain it to you later." With that, she hurried back into the house.
I stood still, unable to calm down for a long time. Feelings of jealousy, pain, and despair intertwined, and I felt like a lonely boat, tossed in the raging waves.
In the evening, Xiaoqiang went out to party with friends again. I sat in a dark room, and my mind was full of images of Meimei and Xiaoqiang in the wheat straw. At this moment, the door creaked open, and Mei Mei walked in.
"Uncle, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hidden it from you. She sat down and said bitterly.
I was silent, not knowing what to say.
"Uncle, I don't have any feelings for Xiaoqiang anymore, the person I really love is you. Mei Mei choked up.
My heart softened and I took her hand: "I understand, Meimei, it's just that it's difficult for us to continue this situation." ”
"No, uncle, I decided to divorce Xiaoqiang and stay with you. Mei Mei said with red eyes.
I was amazed: "How can this work? Xiaoqiang is my only child, we can't do this to him." ”
I was speechless and could only hug her tightly. I know that our ban
That night, I hugged Meimei and cried for a long time. I know that our forbidden love has reached the point where it is beyond control.
I managed to squeeze out a smile and watched my son leave. As his car disappeared around the corner, I sighed heavily, with mixed feelings.
Back in the house, Mei Mei was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze. When she saw me, she hurriedly stood up and stopped talking.
"Meimei, we need to have a good talk. I said heavily.
Mei Mei nodded, tears in her eyes again.
"Although I love you dearly, we can't continue this relationship. I pondered the words, "You're young, you're going to meet better people." Think of me as your elder. ”
"No!" Mei Mei suddenly said loudly, "I don't want anyone else, I just want you!"
With that, she threw herself into my arms and hugged me tightly.
"Meimei, we have to finish, it's good for everyone. "I try to stay sane.
"Then you don't love me?" Mei Mei looked up at me, tears welling up in her eyes.
My heart was like a knife, but I still said firmly: "I will always love you, but there are some things we must let go." It's the right choice. ”
Mei Mei finally broke down and cried. I hugged her and didn't say a word.
From that day on, I tried to avoid being alone with Meimei. She had noticeably become reticent, and her face was getting worse and worse, and I couldn't do anything about it.
A few days later, Xiaoqiang called and said that he was too busy with work to go home. I know this is tantamount to adding insult to injury for Mei Mei. Sure enough, she knocked on my door that night.
"Uncle, please let me sleep here, I really can't stand being alone. She pleaded.
I hesitated, but let her lie down on my bed first. She soon fell asleep, still with tears on her face. I sat next to me all night, and my mind was in turmoil.
My mind went blank and I sat on the floor. It took me a long time to realize what had happened, Mei Mei had left this world.
“
At the moment of Mei Mei's death, my heart felt like it was dead.
I don't know how I spent the rest of my days and nights, and I was in a trance. I blame myself and regret it all the time. I shouldn't have broken Meimei's heart, and I shouldn't have let her go to a dead end. I could have taken her away and started a new life. But I chose to push her away, and finally lost her.
I stood aside, my heart cut like a knife. I knew I should tell Xiaoqiang the truth, but I couldn't open my mouth. Because it would completely ruin him, and I can't bear it.
"Dad, am I not good enough for Meimei to let her go to a dead end?" Xiaoqiang asked me with tears in his eyes.
I was silent, not knowing how to answer.
"Dad, you must know something. Tell me, I can't be suspicious any longer. Xiaoqiang pleaded.
I finally mustered up the courage to reveal my relationship with Mei Mei. I'm ready to take all the blame, even if my son will hate me for the rest of his life.
However, to my surprise, Xiaoqiang didn't blame me, but hugged me tightly: "Dad, I can understand that it was the injustice of this world that made you come to this point." I don't blame you, I just hope you can come out of the shadows. ”
I was deeply moved by Xiaoqiang's tolerance, and tears welled up in my eyes: "Son, I'm sorry for you. From now on, I will always be with you. ”
"No, Dad, you also have the right to live your own life. I think Meimei would want you to be happy if she was still there. Xiaoqiang said firmly.
I nodded, knowing in my heart that I would never be happy again in my life. My love with Mei Mei is destined to leave eternal regrets.
Xiaoqiang returned to work in the city after dealing with Meimei's funeral. I live alone, and my days are like years.
Until one day, I flipped through the diary left by Mei Mei and saw her last diary:
This sentence made my mouth flutter. It turns out that Mei Mei has actually been relieved, and I blame myself too much.
So I decided to fulfill my promise to Xiaoqiang and live well. I always remind myself to always live with gratitude and forgiveness. This is the most precious gift Mei Mei left me.
I will slowly learn to let go, and thank God for letting me meet Meimei. It was the most moving story of my life.
