My name is Li Xiaolin, I am 46 years old this year, and I am an ordinary housewife. My family lives in a small city, and the ordinary life is just like the people there, calm and stable.
I have a son, Li Yu, who is the pride of my husband and me. He was tall, with black hair, and always had a sunny smile, and was what his neighbors called a "good boy". He is our pride and my most distressed child.
In my eyes, my son has always been the child who needs to be taken care of by me, but time flies so fast, he has already started a family and has his own career and family. And my daughter-in-law, Wen Ya, is a gentle and considerate girl who has been with Li Yu for seven years. Their wedding was the most festive day in our family, and I remember the joy of that day as if it were still in front of me.
However, just recently, some conflicts have arisen between me and Wenya, and some estrangements that I can't explain myself have begun to deepen. The fuse of the matter turned out to be a tour.
My family had planned to go to Xi'an, and I always thought it was an opportunity to get closer to each other. But unexpectedly, a misunderstanding during the trip caused a rift in my relationship with Wenya.
That day, our family stepped on a train to Xi'an. Wenya and I both love photography, so we started discussing which spots to shoot in the car. I suggested that I should go to see the Terracotta Warriors first, because it is said to be the treasure of Xi'an. Wenya proposed to go to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda first, because one of her childhood wishes was to be able to see the Big Wild Goose Pagoda with her own eyes. This was completely inconsistent with the plan in my heart, and I felt that her proposal was a bit capricious, so I said casually: "You are blind, right? The Big Wild Goose Pagoda is not as good as the Terracotta Army." I just didn't think her suggestion was reasonable, but I didn't expect her to misunderstand what I meant and angrily turned around and sat on the other side.
This misunderstanding made the whole trip awkward, and the atmosphere became a little heavy. Wen Ya and I didn't talk anymore, and Li Yu was also embarrassed to hope to ease the atmosphere, but I felt a little unhappy in my heart. Maybe it's because my son is too partial and elegant, which makes me feel a little isolated.
After the train arrived in Xi'an, we didn't talk about it again, but the unspeakable gap remained. We visited some of the sights, but the whole trip was shrouded in a subtle atmosphere.
When I got home, I thought things would fade away, but I didn't expect a bigger wave. Wenya offered to invite her own mother to stay with us for a while, which she said would strengthen our relationship. When I heard this proposal, I felt a wave of resistance in my heart, but my son immediately expressed his support, saying that it was a good idea. I could only nod helplessly, sighing in my heart, maybe this time of getting along can dissolve the gap between us.
So, the elegant mother-in-law, Aunt Wang, came. She is a quiet and kind old man, who looks very similar to Wen Ya, both of whom are the gentle type. The arrival of Aunt Wang really made the whole family feel more warm, she always did some housework for us carefully, and often cooked me my favorite dishes. But her arrival also made me feel a little cramped, as if I was restrained, and I felt like I couldn't breathe.
One night, Wen Ya suggested that I sleep with Aunt Wang, saying that it would make me closer. I was a little hesitant, but my son was very supportive, saying that it would strengthen our relationship. I could only reluctantly agree, but an indescribable uneasiness welled up in my heart.
At night, Aunt Wang and I slept in the same bed. She slept soundly, but I felt like I couldn't sleep. Lying in bed, I recalled all the things during this time, and I felt a faint sense of grievance in my heart, as if I had been misunderstood.
I don't know why I feel the way I feel, maybe it's because my self-esteem has been hurt, maybe it's because my son's favoritism makes me feel unfair, maybe it's because of me
I don't know why I feel the way I feel, maybe it's because my self-esteem has been hurt, maybe it's because my son's favoritism makes me feel unfair, maybe it's because I feel like I'm being put in a passive role. I closed my eyes and tried to put myself to sleep, but I couldn't.
"Xiaolin, haven't you slept yet?" Aunt Wang's voice sounded in the darkness.
"Well, I can't sleep. I replied softly.
"Is it because I'm here, don't you feel used to it?" Aunt Wang's voice revealed a hint of apology.
"No, no, Aunt Wang, don't think about it. I hurriedly shook my head, not wanting her to worry about my emotions.
"Maybe it's because of what happened during this time that I'm in a bad mood. I said it casually, and then regretted it a little, for fear that she would ask for the specific reason.
"Xiaolin, is there something wrong between you and Wen Ya?" Aunt Wang really asked.
I was silent for a moment, not knowing how to answer her question. Eventually, I decided to say that anyway, maybe she would have some good advice.
"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that there was a little misunderstanding when I was traveling before. "I tried to downplay the seriousness of the matter.
"Misunderstanding?" Aunt Wang seemed to be a little confused.
"It was on the train that there was a little conflict between me and Wenya, and she may have misunderstood what I meant. "I tried to sum up the whole thing in short words.
"So did you talk about it? Misunderstandings are sometimes due to a lack of communication. Aunt Wang's voice revealed a determination to solve the problem.
"We ...... Not talked about yet. I said with some embarrassment.
"Then why don't you take the initiative to talk to her?" Aunt Wang's voice carried a hint of encouragement.
I was silent for a while, remembering my stubbornness and reluctance to take the initiative just now, and I couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"Perhaps...... I should be proactive. I whispered.
"Yes, communication is important. Aunt Wang nodded, seemingly pleased with my decision.
Our conversation eased me a little, and I decided to find an opportunity to have a good conversation with Wen Ya tomorrow morning to untie this awkward barrier.
The next morning, I decided to go to the kitchen to help make breakfast. Wen Ya happened to be there, and she was preparing the ingredients. I walked up to her and said with some hesitation: "Wenya, I didn't sleep very well last night, I want to talk to you." ”
Wen Ya listened to my words, stopped what she was doing, turned around, and looked at me with gentle eyes: "Mom, is there anything you want to say to me?"
I swallowed a little awkwardly, and then said, "Actually, it's about yesterday......"
Before I could speak, Wen Ya whispered, "Mom, I know there is some misunderstanding between you and me, but in fact, it was just a small misunderstanding. ”
Hearing her words, I was a little surprised and a little relieved. I nodded and said, "Yes, actually, I don't think there is any need for us to affect the relationship because of this matter. ”
"Well, Mom, I don't want to mess with you, after all, we are a family. The elegant words were full of understanding and warmth.
The two of us chatted in the kitchen for a while, and told all the previous misunderstandings, and the estrangement in our hearts gradually dissipated. I felt an indescribable lightness and joy in my heart, as if the whole world had become brighter.
"Xiaolin, what are you talking about?" Aunt Wang walked over and asked curiously.
"Nothing, just solving some minor problems. I replied with a smile.
Aunt Wang nodded, and seemed to feel the reconciliation between us.
Since that day, the relationship between me and Wen Ya has become more harmonious, and the communication between us has become smoother. The arrival of Aunt Wang not only enhanced the relationship between us, but also taught me to be more proactive in solving problems and no longer stubbornly refuse to communicate because of small things.
Time passed slowly, and after living in our house for a while, the elegant mother-in-law returned to her own home. And the relationship between me and Wenya has become more harmonious
Mutsumi.
However, just when I thought everything would calm down, another thing happened that caught me off guard.
One day, I received a phone call from a neighbor in my hometown, telling me that my father was having some health problems and that I needed to go back and take care of him as soon as possible. After listening to the phone, I panicked, after all, my father is old and his health has not been good, and I have been worried about his health.
I told my son and Wenya about the call, and they both understood and encouraged me to go back to see my father as soon as possible. I was grateful for their support, but at the same time I was a little uneasy, after all, I had never been back to my hometown alone.
"Mom, you can go back with confidence, we will take care of everything at home. Li Yu looked at me and said, his eyes full of concern and understanding.
"Yes, Mom, you go take care of Daddy, we will be here and waiting for you to come back. Wen Ya also added, her voice revealing a kind of gentleness and thoughtfulness.
I nodded, looked at them gratefully, and felt a warm current, as if the whole world had become warmer.
"Thank you, I'll be back as soon as possible. I said, my heart full of emotion.
So, I packed my bags, said goodbye to my son and Wenya, and set out on the way back to my hometown. I don't know what will happen when I return to my hometown, but I know that no matter what happens, I will face it strongly, because I am not alone, I have a warm family, and I have lovers and children who support and encourage me.
On the way back to my hometown, I often think of all kinds of things at home, my son and the warm smile of Wen Ya, and Aunt Wang's thoughtfulness and understanding. My heart was filled with gratitude and warmth, as if the whole world had become better because of them.
Finally, I returned to my hometown and saw everything familiar and strange. I felt an inexplicable excitement and nervousness in my heart, not knowing what my father's health was or what I could do for him.
When I walked into the house, I saw my father lying on the bed, and my thin body made my heart ache for a while. I walked over to his bed and asked softly, "Dad, how are you doing?"
My father raised his head and saw me, with a hint of surprise on his face: "Xiaolin, are you back?"
"Yes, Dad, I'm back, I'll take care of you. I said softly.
My father listened to me with a look of relief on his face, and he held my hand tightly, as if to tell me that he was glad that I was back.
"Xiaolin, are you back?" there was a hint of joy in his father's voice.
"Yes, Dad, I'm back. I replied with a smile, my heart full of emotion and warmth.
In the past few days at home, I have spent a lot of time with my father, and although his physical condition has not improved, I can feel his dependence and love for me. I often think of everything at home, my son and the warm smile of Wen Ya, and Aunt Wang's thoughtfulness and understanding, and my heart is full of gratitude and warmth.
"Xiaolin, what are you thinking?" my father's voice interrupted my thoughts.
"It's nothing, Dad, I just remembered everything at home. I replied with a smile.
"Well, everything will be fine at home. My father patted my hand gently, a look of relief on his face.
I nodded, filled with hope and confidence, knowing that as long as we were together, everything would be better.
During my days with my father, I received a letter from my son. He wrote that the family missed me very much and hoped that I would go back soon. The letter also included a photo of our family together, in which their smiles were bright and warm, and I felt the warmth of home.
Looking at this letter, my heart was filled with emotion and guilt. I know that my son has been worried about me, worried that I will feel lonely and hard to take care of my father alone in my hometown. I gently stroked their smiling faces in the photo and decided to go back as soon as possible.
"Dad, I want to go back to see my son and daughter-in-law, what do you think?" I said to my father.
My father looked at me and nodded, "Xiaolin, you go back, I can take care of myself here alone." ”
"Thank you Dad, I'll be back as soon as possible. "I looked at my father gratefully, and my heart was filled with gratitude and warmth.
So, I packed my bags, said goodbye to my father, and set out on the way back. On the way back, I was filled with anticipation and joy that I would soon be able to reunite with my son and daughter-in-law and share each other's lives.
Finally, I returned home and saw my son and daughter-in-law. When they saw me, they had a big smile on their faces, as if the whole world had become a better place because of my return.
"Mom, you're back!" Li Yu walked over and hugged me tightly.
"Yes, Mom, you're back!" Wen Ya said with a smile.
I smiled and nodded, feeling the care and warmth of my son and daughter-in-law, and my heart was full of happiness and satisfaction.
"Son, daughter-in-law, I'm back, and our family is together again. I said to them with a smile.
"Yes, Mom, our family will always be together and share each other's joys and sorrows. Li Yu said with anticipation.
"Yes, Mom, we will always be there for you and spend every wonderful moment with you. Wen Ya also added.
I looked at them gratefully, my heart was filled with emotion and happiness, and I knew that as long as we were together, everything would be better.
So, we sat around as a family, sharing each other's stories and laughter, as if the whole world was a better place because of our reunion. I closed my eyes, felt the warmth and happiness of home, and my heart was filled with satisfaction and gratitude, and I knew that as long as we were together, everything would be better.

"By the way, Mom, did you bring any souvenirs with you when you came back?" Wen Ya asked with a smile, as if she wanted to change the subject.
"Ah, by the way, I forgot to bring it. I shook my head helplessly and smiled.
"It's okay, remember to bring some souvenirs back next time you go back, I miss the taste of hometown so much. Li Yu said with a smile.
