The Li family is an ordinary family of three, father Li Dawei is a company employee, mother Zhang Li is a housewife, and daughter Li Siyu is in junior high school. The Zhang family is a family of six, grandfather Zhang Fuhai is retired, grandmother Wang Guizhi is a housewife, son Zhang Qiang is a factory worker, daughter-in-law Ma Hong is a clothing store employee, and twin sons Zhang Xiaoming and Zhang Xiaogang are in the fifth grade of primary school.
The Zhang family originally lived in the countryside, but in order to make it easier for the children to go to school, they decided to move to the city to live with their son Zhang Qiang's family. Since I just moved in, the house has not yet been renovated, so I can only temporarily borrow it to live in Li's house. Li Dawei and Zhang Qiang are cousins, and the two families have a good relationship, so the Li family readily agreed.
"Uncle, aunt, children, you're finally here!" Li Dawei warmly welcomed his relatives into the door.
"Well, there was a traffic jam on the road, so it was a little late. Zhang Qiang patted Li Dawei's shoulder, with a happy smile on his face.
"Haha, it's okay, it's okay, the important thing is that you get home safely. Li Dawei pointed to the big bag and said, "There are a lot of things, give them all to me, and I'll help you get them in." "
"Thank you, Uncle. Ma Hong hurriedly handed the duffel bag in his hand to Li Dawei.
"Siyu, come out and help!" Zhang Li shouted, and Li Siyu ran out of the room and obediently took the things in the hands of her grandparents.
"Ouch, Siyu has grown so tall, almost as tall as grandma. Wang Guizhi looked Li Siyu up and down, with a look of affection on his face.
"Grandma, don't tease me, old man. Li Siyu was praised by her grandmother, and her face flushed with a faint flush.
"Hello brother and sister!" The two little boys greeted each other a little shyly.
"Hello, I'm Siyu, and I'll be a family in the future. Li Siyu squatted down and said softly to the two children.
After dinner, Li Dawei and Zhang Qiang sat side by side on the sofa, chatting with each other.
"Hey, what time do you usually go to bed?" Zhang Qiang asked.
"We usually go to bed around eleven o'clock, and Siyu, as a student, has to ensure enough sleep time. What about you?"
"When we were in the countryside, we basically didn't go to bed until 12 o'clock at night, and sometimes we were doing farm work, and it was common to go to bed at one or two o'clock. "
"That's not good, in the city you have to pay attention to work and rest, sleeping late is not good for your health. Zhang Li persuaded: "You have to change this habit." "
"I know, I know, aunt, you can rest assured. Zhang Qiang nodded, but he secretly slandered us in his heart, he really regarded us as outsiders.
The sound of "pop pop" pots and pans was endless, and Li Siyu was so noisy that he couldn't open his eyes, and he was very unhappy. She got dressed and walked to the living room to see that her grandparents had filled the table with rice, side dishes, and a few large plates.
"Siyu, come and eat, grandma fried your favorite dish for you. Wang Guizhi greeted warmly.
"Grandma, why are you cooking so early? My mom shouldn't have gotten up yet, right?" Li Siyu asked with a frown.
"Ouch, in the countryside, you people get up at this point, and you city people are really lazy. Zhang Fuhai interjected.
After Li Dawei and Zhang Li were woken up, they also walked out in a daze. Zhang Li saw the mess on the dining table, and her face turned pale.
"Mom, why don't you cook without telling me anything? The kitchen is so messy, who will clean it up?" Zhang Li said a little angrily.
"It's just a breakfast, what's the big deal. You city people just love to worry about this, and it's really a big fuss. Wang Guizhi waved his hand nonchalantly.
"It's not just 'making breakfast'! Look at the pots and pans everywhere, there's dust on the floor, and the tables are dirty, who's going to clean up?" Zhang Li's tone was even more unkind.
"Okay, okay, it's all my own family, there's no need to be so careful. Zhang Fuhai hurriedly played a round, but Zhang Li's face was still gloomy.
"Uncle and aunt, you have good intentions, we understand. But it's best to discuss it with my mom in advance so that everyone can know about it. Li Dawei hurriedly said, for fear that the contradiction would continue to intensify.
"Oh, yes, too, we always do things abruptly. Wang Guizhi finally realized his gaffe and nodded again and again.
"Alright, now that breakfast is ready, let's eat together. Siyu, call your parents over quickly. Zhang Qiang clapped his hands and said.
The family sat around the dining table, and the atmosphere eased a lot. Li Siyu looked at the various dishes on the table, and was also a little moved in his heart, and secretly made up his mind to tolerate his relatives more.
Despite the morning episodes, the family spent a few days without incident. However, the difference in living habits finally broke out into a big conflict one day.
It was a weekend, and Li Siyu wanted to sleep lazily, but was woken up by the noise of Zhang Xiaoming and Zhang Xiaogang. I saw two boys fighting in the living room, throwing all the sofa cushions around.
"You two be quiet for me! I'm not welcome to be noisy!" Li Siyu was furious and yelled at the two children.
"Ouch, Sister Siyu, don't be angry, we're just playing a game. Zhang Xiaoming explained curtly.
"You don't have to be so noisy to play a game, right? You don't know how to respect people at all, it's really unruly!"
"Then what qualifications do you have to control us? You're not our mother!" Zhang Xiaogang muttered a retort.
At this moment, Ma Hong and Zhang Qiang were also woken up and ran out in a hurry.
"What's wrong with you two kids? Ma Hong said as she pulled the two children to her side.
"It's the two of them who are making a mess of the living room! Li Siyu said indignantly.
"Siyu, you are just a child, why do you point fingers at my child?" Ma Hong was also annoyed by Li Siyu's tone.
"But they were really noisy, and they threw things around, so I just told them to be quiet. "
"Hmph, we don't care what we do in our own home, you don't need to care!" Ma Hong said coldly.
"What? You think my house is your own?" Li Siyu's anger was completely ignited, "I didn't agree with you doing whatever you want in my house!"
"You are so arrogant at such a young age, you are so uneducated!" Ma Hong accused.
In this way, the quarrel between the two became more and more intense, and the conversation became more and more sharp. Others have been trying to persuade them, but nothing has been able to stop the dispute from escalating. In the end, Zhang Li couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted: "Shut up for me! What are you arguing about?"
Startled by Zhang Li's roar, the two stopped. Ma Hong hung her head in some shame, and Li Siyu also realized whether her words were too hurtful.
"No, it's us who are at fault. Ma Hong sighed, "As guests, we should have been more considerate of your feelings, but we did something unseemly. "
Zhang Li looked at the two of them and also blamed herself: "We also have something to think about. As a host, you should be more considerate of your guests' habits, and should not try to change you stiffly. "
"I don't blame you, it's us elders who didn't set a good example for you. Zhang Fuhai and Wang Guizhi also apologized.
"Forget it, it's all a family, why bother talking about trivial things too ugly. Li Dawei finally opened his mouth to play a round, "Everyone has their own way of life, as long as we respect and tolerate each other." "
"Uncle is right. Zhang Qiang agreed, "In the future, we will try our best to abide by the rules of life here, and I hope you can also forgive us for some bad habits." "
"That's natural, as long as everyone can understand each other, there will be no more such contradictions. Li Dawei said with a smile.
In this way, a somewhat thrilling quarrel was resolved. Everyone, you and I said a word, and the atmosphere gradually eased down. Li Siyu looked at the family in front of him, and his heart was mixed, but more of it was the cherishing of family affection.
After that unhappy dispute, the family realized the importance of mutual tolerance and cherishing family affection.
Li Siyu leaned on the head of the bed, thinking back to the various episodes of the past few days, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. As a rebellious girl, she often resented her parents' preaching, feeling that they were too conservative and nosy. But this visit from relatives made her truly appreciate the weight of the word "affection".
Despite the many frictions and contradictions, there is still selfless love between loved ones. Just like Ma Hong, although she said some hurtful things at the time, it was out of instinct to protect her children in the final analysis. And when grandparents do housework, they just want the owner to save some effort.
Family affection is like a bond that will never be broken, even if there will be occasional disagreements due to some trivial things, but as long as you feel and cherish it with your heart, you will eventually resolve the hatred and regain warmth.
Over time, the family has also learned to tolerate and understand each other.
Zhang Fuhai and Wang Guizhi realized that although they had always lived in the countryside, they should also try to adhere to the local way of life in the city. They began to consciously keep the environment clean and tidy, and they would also discuss with Zhang Li in advance whether they needed to help with housework.
Ma Hong took the initiative to apologize to Li Siyu and admitted whether his words at that time were a bit excessive. As an elder, she is determined to set a better example for her children in the future.
Even Li Dawei and Zhang Qiang reflected on their responsibilities and responsibilities as husbands and fathers during this experience. They are more attentive to the management of the family and maintain the harmony of the whole extended family.
Everyone is trying to understand and tolerate each other, and resolve differences with love. In this way, the family regained the warmth of family affection in this mutual understanding.
Eight days passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the Zhang family was about to leave the Li family.
"Hey, time flies. Wang Guizhi sighed, but also showed a trace of reluctance.
"Yes, grandma, you can take care of our house comfortably these days. Zhang Li nodded again and again, full of gratitude.
"That's as it should be, you're the master. Wang Guizhi smiled and said, "In the future, we will have our own home, and we will definitely invite you to come over as guests often." "
"Yes, yes, we'll go then. Li Dawei readily agreed.
"Sister Siyu, let's go, you have to be obedient. Zhang Xiaoming said with some reluctance.
"Well, you have to be obedient too, don't be too naughty. Li Siyu squatted down and gently hugged the two little guys.
Everyone talked and pulled around, and finally said goodbye. The Li family hugged and said goodbye to the Zhang family one by one until their figures completely disappeared from sight.
After seeing his relatives leave, Li Siyu did not return to the room for a long time, but stood in front of the window and was distracted. The experience of these eight days has given her too many thoughts and insights.
She realized that family affection is not taken for granted, but needs to be cared for and managed by everyone. Only mutual tolerance and mutual understanding can maintain a warm and harmonious family.
There may always be some small contradictions and disputes in life, but as long as you look at it with the eyes of love, you will definitely be able to resolve differences and regain the warmth of family affection. Just like this time, despite the quarrels and quarrels, in the end, the family ties everyone together.
Li Siyu took a deep breath and a knowing smile appeared on his face. She is determined to cherish everything in front of her better in the future, to take care of her loved ones, and to warm the world with love.
