Ever since I was a child, I have always loved my parents, respected them, and respected their choices. I remember one time, I wanted to study abroad and proposed this idea to my parents, but they didn't agree at all, and I felt very puzzled because my grades have always been good, and studying abroad is very helpful for my future development.
I promised them that I would come back to accompany them no matter how long I was abroad. However, they flatly refused.
However, I obeyed their wishes and stayed in the country.
So, I decided to repay my parents with my own efforts. I started working hard, saving money and saving every penny.
I took the money back home and wanted to surprise my parents. But when I handed them the money, they firmly refused and rebuked me for being ignorant.
I was very sad and felt like my heart had been rejected. My parents looked at me and said softly, "Child, our greatest wish in life is to see you live a healthy and happy life, and with the fulfillment of this wish, money is really no longer important."
They refused because they felt the money was more useful to me and they didn't need it anymore.
This scene made me feel very guilty, and I understood the feelings of my parents. I realized that they had worked so hard for me, but I always insisted on doing my own thing.
I deeply realized that {{sorrow and filial piety are in a thought}}. If you don't force your parents, you will never know how much money they have, let alone how much they have paid for us.
In the days that followed, I tried harder to care for my parents and make them feel my filial piety as much as possible.
Thanks to my efforts, the atmosphere of our family has also become more harmonious.
However, just when I thought everything was getting better, something happened at home that I didn't expect.
On the other end of the line came the voice of a woman I didn't recognize, who claimed to be my mom. I was very surprised because I had always thought that I was the only child in my parents.
My parents looked embarrassed when they saw my expression. They finally confessed all the facts to me - it turned out that I had a half-sister, but she lost contact with us after being taken away by her father because of her parents' divorce when she was young.
I was very shocked and outraged by this fact that my parents were hiding such an important fact.
This made me doubt their trust. My parents and I fell silent, and the harmonious family atmosphere instantly became tense.
I started trying to find my sister and figure out the truth of the matter anyway. However, in my communication with my parents, they wanted me not to disturb my sister.
But I couldn't accept this explanation, and I felt that I had the right to know everything about my family.
This incident made me question my parents, and I began to wonder if they were hiding it from me in other ways.
I didn't know how to face them, and there was an unprecedented rift in our relationship. All of this makes me feel exhausted.
In the process of working hard, I discovered that I was not as successful as my parents expected. The setbacks and difficulties in my life plunged me into painful contemplation.
However, I felt guilty all the time because they expected too much from me.
All this made me feel painful, and I wanted to change myself, but my heart stubbornly refused to accept it. I didn't know how to deal with these hardships, and I felt as if I had become a burden to my parents.
As I struggled with, I suddenly realized that I needed to re-understand my parents, not only as a parent but also for what I had done in my past life.
All this made me understand more {{If you don't force your parents, you never know how much money they have!Sorrow and filial piety are in a thought}}.
I hope that with their support and encouragement, I can regain my strength and pursue my goals. However, I also had uncertainty and concern about my parents' reaction.
In the days that followed, I worked harder with my parents. Every weekend, I walk and chat with them, and often help them do what I can.
However, just when I thought the family had been reconciled again, a sudden event broke the peace between us again.
I was scared because it didn't match everything I knew. I immediately went to my parents to ask about it, but they seemed evasive, obviously they didn't want to talk about it.
This time, I decided to unravel the mystery. I looked up a lot of relevant legal information and also found a lawyer for consultation.
The news shocked me, he is a relative I have trusted since I was a child, and I didn't expect him to do such a heartbreaking thing.
It turned out that my uncle had been dissatisfied with some of the decisions made by my parents many years ago, which led to the retaliation against us all along.
I don't think it's a simple contradiction, but a complex contradiction that revolves around family bonds.
At the same time, I also began to wonder if the family could really be so fragile because of financial interests, all of which made me wonder what kind of secrets and entanglements were hidden in between.
