I am Zhang Hao, an ordinary white-collar worker, living in this noisy city. My wife Xiaoli and I have been married for five years and our marriage has been stable until recently something happened that I couldn't let go of.
One night, when I had just returned home from the company, I found Xiaoli sitting on the sofa with a melancholy face, holding a letter in her hand, and her eyes revealed unease. I walked over to her and asked, "What's the matter, my dear?"
I took it and looked at it closely. The letter reads: "Dear Zhang Hao, my mother is not in good health and needs to be taken care of, I want her to come and live with us for a while, I hope you can understand." Love you Lily. After reading the letter, I was silent for a long time.
Xiaoli wiped her tears, and said in a trembling voice: "Zhang Hao, I know this request is a bit sudden, but my mother really needs someone to take care of her, and she is too lonely in her hometown alone." And we are well equipped to take care of her, so we won't cause you too much trouble. ”
I was silent for a moment, then sighed softly, "Xiaoli, I understand your difficulties, but your mother is here, and our lives will change a lot. We both have to work, who is going to take care of her? And, you know the situation in my family, my parents need to be taken care of too, and my mother is not in good health. If your mom can come, then why can't my mom come?"
Xiaoli listened to my words and fell silent. She knew I had a point, but she didn't know how to answer me. The contradictions between us seemed to be getting deeper and deeper, and I felt a sense of powerlessness hit me.
Xiaoli was silent for a few moments, her eyes wandering between me and the letter, as if thinking about how to answer. Finally, she sighed softly, raised her head, looked me in the eye and said, "Zhang Hao, I know your worries, but my mother really needs someone to take care of her, and I can't just ignore it." I am willing to take on the responsibility of taking care of her, and although it will cause some inconveniences in life, I am sure that we will be able to overcome it. ”
I looked at Xiaoli's firm eyes, and I was a little moved in my heart. She is always like this, never backing down in the face of difficulties, and always able to find a solution to the problem. I gently shook her hand and said, "Okay, I trust you." We will definitely overcome this difficulty. ”
Xiaoli smiled slightly, then picked up a piece of paper on the table and began to write something. I looked at her serious appearance, and a warmth welled up in my heart. Perhaps, this dilemma is just a hurdle in our lives, as long as we love each other and unite as one, we will definitely be able to overcome it.
After a while, Xiaoli handed me the written piece of paper with a detailed plan: how to arrange things at home, how to take care of her mother, and how to take care of my parents' needs. Looking at this plan, I feel a little moved, Xiaoli is really a very responsible person.
"Thank you, Lily. I said softly.
Xiaoli raised her head and looked at me with a smile: "No thanks, this is what I should do." ”
The two of us looked at each other and smiled, and the doubts and contradictions in our hearts seemed to disappear. I believe that with Xiaoli's strength and plan, we will be able to get through this difficult time.
The next few days began our busy lives. Xiaoli's mother came, and we arranged her accommodation and made a detailed living plan. Every day, Xiaoli and I take turns taking care of her daily life, taking her to the hospital for check-ups, and taking care of my parents' needs. It's hard work, but we're satisfied.
During this time, I also got to know Xiaoli's mother more deeply. She is a very kind, kind person who cares about us very much. Every evening, she would eat with us and talk about family life. I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to take care of such a good person.
However, one night, an uninvited guest suddenly came to our house. I was about to prepare dinner with Xiaoli when I suddenly heard the doorbell ring. I walked to the door with some confusion, and when I opened the door, I saw that it was my mother standing in the doorway.
"Mom, why are you here?" I asked, a little surprised.
My mother smiled and said, "Son, I want to come and see you, and I will help you with the housework by the way." ”
I was moved, but at the same time I was a little embarrassed. After all, I already have Xiaoli's mother at home, and with one more old man, life will become more complicated. But seeing my mother and Xiaoli's mother chatting happily together, I couldn't say no.
I walked up to Xiaoli and whispered to her, "Xiaoli, my mother is here." ”
Xiaoli listened to my words, looked at me with some hesitation, and then said to me with a smile: "It's okay, I'll take care of it." ”
I nodded, grateful. With Xiaoli's support, I feel stronger. Xiaoli and I greeted my mother together, and the family was reunited, warm and happy.
After my mom moved in at home, our lives became busier. Xiaoli and I worked together to take turns taking care of the two elderly people, while also taking care of work and household chores. Although it can be a bit overwhelming at times, seeing the laughter and warmth in my home makes it all worth it.
However, problems always seem to follow. One night, I came home and found Xiaoli sitting on the sofa with a sad face.
"What's wrong, Xiaoli, what's going on?" I asked with concern.
Xiaoli raised her head and said with a wry smile: "Zhang Hao, I just received a phone call, it was from my sister. She said my dad was sick and needed to be hospitalized. ”
I listened to this and my heart tightened, there were enough things at home, and now there was one more such thing. I shook Xiaoli's hand and comforted, "Don't worry, we'll figure it out." My mom and your mom are there, and we can share it together. ”
Xiaoli nodded, tears rolling in her eyes. I know she must be sad in her heart, but she is always able to face everything strongly.
"I'm going to go to the hospital tomorrow to see my father, so come with me. Xiaoli said.
"Of course, we will definitely go together. I held her hand tightly and gave her support.
Early the next morning, we went to the hospital. In the hospital room, I saw Xiaoli's father lying on the bed, pale and looking very weak. Xiaoli anxiously asked the doctor about her father's condition, and I silently supported her.
The doctor told us that Xiaoli's father needed surgery, but the operation was expensive and there were certain risks associated with the operation. Xiaoli's heart sank when she heard this, she knew that this was a huge burden for our family.
"Doctor, we'll raise the cost of the surgery as soon as possible. I said, although I was anxious, I didn't want Xiaoli to worry too much.
Back at home, Xiaoli and I discussed raising money for the surgery. We considered various options, including borrowing money from relatives and friends, and even considering mortgaging the property. After some hard work, we were able to scrape together the cost of the surgery.
On the day of the operation, Xiaoli and I stayed at the entrance of the hospital, praying silently. The surgery went smoothly and my father's condition was under control. Xiaoli's sister looked at us gratefully and said, "Thank you, if it weren't for you, my dad might have died." ”
When I heard this, I felt a warm current welling up in my heart. Perhaps, this is the responsibility and love between family members. I held Xiaoli's hand tightly, and my heart was full of gratitude and happiness.
Back at home, we started our busy lives again. Although we have been through a turmoil, our relationship has become stronger. Whenever I see Xiaoli's busy figure, my heart is full of respect and love. I know that as long as we love each other, we will get through it together, no matter what difficulties we encounter.
Life seems to be back on track, and Xiaoli and I continue our busy and happy lives. Although there are a few more elderly people in the family, life has become more complicated, but we feel very satisfied because the home is full of love and warmth.
However, one night, I received a phone call that left me feeling heavy. My brother's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "Brother, something happened to Dad, hurry up!"
I listened to the phone and my heart sank. My dad is old and in poor health, and I have been worried about his health. I immediately told Xiaoli that we should quickly pack our things and prepare to go to the hospital to see Dad.
When I arrived at the hospital, I saw my father lying on the hospital bed, pale and tired. The younger brother stood by and anxiously asked the doctor about his father's condition. The doctor told us that my father's condition was serious and that he needed to be treated as soon as possible.
I discussed it with my brother and decided to transfer my dad to a better hospital for treatment. After a lot of twists and turns, we finally transferred my dad to a specialized hospital.
In the hospital, my brother and I took turns taking care of my dad and tried to make him feel loved and cared for by us. Although my father was seriously ill, he always maintained an optimistic attitude and gave us encouragement and support.
"Dad, you have to be strong, and you will definitely recover. I held my father's hand tightly and said to him.
Dad smiled slightly, with a hint of comfort in his eyes: "Children, don't worry too much, I'll be fine." ”
With Dad's encouragement, the worries in our hearts seemed to ease a little. Every day, my brother and I would be by my father's side, cook him some nutritious food, massage his body, and try to make him feel cared for.
After a few days of treatment, Dad's condition gradually improved, and his complexion was a little ruddy. The doctor told us that as long as we continued to adhere to the treatment, my father would soon recover and be discharged from the hospital.
My brother and I were extremely relieved to hear the news. We know that although Dad's condition has not completely improved, at least he is out of danger. We decided to continue to be by my father's side, give him more love and care, and hope that he can recover and be discharged from the hospital soon.
During these few days in the hospital, the relationship between me and my brother has also become closer. We are no longer arguing as often as we used to, but are more understanding and supportive of each other. I feel very fortunate to have such a brother who can face all the challenges of life together.
During this time, I also got to know my dad more deeply. He is a very strong and optimistic person, and although he is not in good health, he never bows to his illness and always maintains an optimistic attitude. My heart is filled with admiration and gratitude for him, he is the greatest role model of my life.
After a period of treatment, Dad's condition finally improved significantly. Doctors said he could be discharged from the hospital, but needed to continue rehabilitation. My brother and I were overjoyed to hear the news, and we decided to take good care of our dad and let him recover as soon as possible.
After my father was discharged from the hospital, our family was finally reunited. Despite a tumultuous experience, our families have come closer and stronger.
Every day, my brother and I take turns taking care of my dad and doing some rehabilitation exercises for him. Although my father is still a little weak, he is very cooperative and trains carefully every day, hoping to recover his health as soon as possible.
Mom and Xiaoli also actively participated in the rehabilitation training, giving more encouragement and support to Dad. Every night, we sit together as a family, talking and laughing, and sharing the moments of life. I feel very blessed to have such a warm and harmonious family.
However, just when we thought everything was going to get back on track, something suddenly happened that shocked us.
One night, Xiaoli and I were busy for dinner when we suddenly heard the sound of my mother and Xiaoli arguing in the living room.
"How can you treat me like this? I have a part in this family, why can't you respect me a little?" the mother's voice was full of anger and grievance.
"Mom, you misunderstood, we didn't disrespect you. Xiaoli's voice trembled a little, and it was obvious that she was also angry.
When I heard this, I quickly put down what I was doing and walked to the living room. I saw that both my mother and Xiaoli were not good-looking, and their eyes were full of anger and dissatisfaction.
"What's going on?" I asked.
My mother pointed at Xiaoli, and said in a trembling voice: "You husband and wife, you are so unfair to me! Xiaoli's mother came, and you took care of her in every way, but I was left out like an outsider in this family. ”
Xiaoli listened to her mother's words, her face turned a little pale, she tried to control her emotions, and said, "Mom, you misunderstood, we didn't snub you. It's just that Xiaoli's mother is here and we need more time and energy to take care of her. ”
Mom listened to Xiaoli's explanation, but still said dissatisfiedly: "Why can your mother come to the house to care for the elderly, but my mother can't? I also have a part in this family, you can't be so indifferent to me." ”
I saw that the quarrel between my mother and Xiaoli was getting more and more intense, and I felt very anxious. I know that this problem cannot be solved overnight, and we need to think calmly and find a proper solution.
"Mom, Xiaoli, don't be angry. I said, "I know it's important to all of you, so let's sit down and talk about it and find a solution." ”
I sat on the couch with my mom and Xiaoli and started talking about it. I told my mom that we didn't leave her out in the cold, just because Xiaoli's mother had special needs and needed more attention and care. I hope that my mother can understand our difficulties and work together with us to take care of the elderly in the family.
Xiaoli also apologized to her mother, saying that she did not deliberately snub her mother, but because the situation at home is special and requires more time and energy. She hopes that her mother can understand and support us through this difficult time.
After some communication, my mother's emotions gradually calmed down. She understood our difficulties and expressed her willingness to work with us to take care of the elderly at home. We hugged each other as a family, and our hearts were filled with gratitude and unity.
Since then, we have become more united and harmonious as a family, facing all kinds of challenges in life together. We have learned to be more understanding and tolerant of each other, and to work together to move forward together. Everyone in the family feels more love and warmth, and our family becomes happier and more content.
