My name is Zhang Hua, I am 43 years old, and I am currently working as an executive director of a well-known Internet company.
I was born in the county town, my parents were factory workers, and my parents did not favor sons over daughters because I was a girl, they regarded me as a treasure, and I was held in the palm of my hand since I was a child.
I had a wonderful childhood under the care of my parents, but when I was ten years old, there was a mass wave of layoffs, and finally my parents were laid off.
After his parents were laid off, the family had no source of income, so his father had to go out with his former co-workers to make a living, but his father went out for several months without any news.
My mother had no choice but to go out and find odd jobs to support our two of us.
While I was anxiously waiting for my father to return to us.
The co-worker who went out with my father to earn a living brought the news that came like a bolt from the blue to our family - my father was hit by a passing truck while working in the field and left us forever.
Due to the scarcity of surveillance at that time, and the fact that the accident occurred at night, my father's co-workers did not find the perpetrator for my father.
And the father's boss thought that the father was not working during the accident when he had the accident, so he did not pay any compensation.
My father's co-workers saw the friendship of their fellow villagers and incinerated my father's body at their own expense, brought it back and handed it to my mother, who looked at the jar containing my father's ashes and was stunned for a long time.
But my mother is strong, and after my father left, she took up the family by herself, and she would take me to school every day to find odd jobs outside to see if she could find a long-term job.
Maybe it was my mother's tenacious spirit that was discovered, or maybe my father's spirit in heaven blessed us and my mother, and my mother found a job that barely made ends meet.
After my mother got a job, my mother and I lived a quiet life for a long time, but as I got older, I had to pay a lot of money at school, which put a lot of burden on my mother.
It was also at this time that our stepfather, who was two years older than my mother and worked as a teacher in the county's junior high school, came to us.
The stepfather was introduced by his grandfather, and the matchmaker said that the stepfather had been married twice, but his wife died of illness and was now single for four or five years.
I asked someone to ask around if there was a suitable object, but I was not satisfied.
After the person waiting for the trustee introduced the mother, the stepfather's parents were very satisfied, and immediately let the stepfather and mother meet.
The stepfather didn't care at first, but after talking to his mother, he found that his mother was not only understanding, but also very considerate of others.
After his stepfather went back, he asked someone to inquire privately for a long time, and found that his mother was not only diligent and thrifty, but also very responsible.
The stepfather was moved and eventually remarried his mother.
At first, I was uncomfortable with my stepfather coming to our house, but my stepfather, who was a teacher after all, soon saw that I was not adapting, so he pulled me in front of me and said to me:
"Xiaohua, don't be afraid, uncle will be good to you two. ”
The stepfather was a math teacher, he was a very responsible teacher, and although he usually spoke funny, when he taught his students, he was very strict.
Over time, I've come to terms with the fact that I have an extra stepfather.
During this period, I also felt that my stepfather cared about me, he would care about my studies, whether I had a good relationship with my classmates, whether I ate well at school, and whether I was bullied.
I came to feel that my stepdad was someone I could rely on.
My mother always told my stepfather not to get used to me, but my stepfather didn't care, he always took me to various places to play on weekends and bought me little dolls.
My stepfather was very kind to our mother, he asked someone to introduce me to a new job, and he placed me in his school when I was in junior high school.
Because of my stepfather's influence, I developed a strong interest in science.
When I was in my second year of junior high school, my mother was pregnant, and I wondered every day if my mother and stepfather's child would not want me after they were born.
I couldn't do anything, and my stepfather found me to chat after knowing what was going on.
He said to me: "Dad is not the kind of person who forgets that child when he has this child, in Dad's heart, you are my biological flesh and blood, your mother didn't say to abandon you in such a difficult situation back then, and it is impossible to abandon you now." ”
My stepfather's reassuring pill was in my stomach, and I suddenly opened my mouth, yes, my mother and stepfather's children are also my younger siblings, how can I be jealous of him?
When my younger brother was born when I was in the third year of junior high school, I understood the difficulties of my stepfather and mother, and often helped take care of my younger brother.
But I can't have it both ways, because I often take care of my younger brother, my academic performance plummeted, and I could barely go to high school during the high school entrance examination, but I needed to spend money from my family to go.
Originally, I didn't want to spend this money, thinking that I would go directly to secondary school, and after graduation, I could directly reduce the burden on my family.
But my stepfather didn't agree with my idea, he gave me the extra money I needed to spend in high school, and said to me: "Xiaohua, this year we delayed you, so you don't have much time to study, but I can't delay you for a lifetime, go to high school, get a good university in the future, find a good job, and let your mother and me rest assured." ”
I was very touched by what my stepfather said, and at the same time, I secretly made up my mind to honor the second elder more after work in the future.
In the next three years, I studied every day without sleep and food, and finally got a satisfactory result in the college entrance examination, because of the influence of my stepfather, I was very interested in science, so I followed my stepfather's advice.
Finally, he was admitted to the computer major of a 985 college in China, and the computer major at that time was just starting in China.
So after four years, I joined a company after graduating, and then I grew with the company until I became an executive director.
I still remember my first paycheck, and the rest of the money was sent home except for the next month's expenses.
As a result, when I came home for the Chinese New Year, my stepfather returned all the money to me and added hundreds of dollars to it.
Tell me that it's not easy to live outside, don't be wronged and break your body.
I took the money, my eyes were red, and my heart was warm.
Over the years, I have had a fairly smooth sailing, my husband and I met in the company, the relationship between husband and wife is stable, we have two children, and now the children are about to go to high school.
My husband and I are usually very concerned about the children's grades, but we are more concerned about their physical and mental health, and the children are also very competitive, and their grades remain at the top of the class all year round.
Last year, my mother fell when she went out to buy groceries and lay in bed for more than three months, but she still fell ill and continued to suffer from minor problems.
Every time I heard that my mother was sick again, I was very anxious, and I wanted to return to my hometown on the same day, and my brother and I did not return to my hometown after graduating from university, so I considered taking my mother and stepfather to me to take care of the elderly.
But my mother was reluctant to come to her neighborhood.
I couldn't resist my mother, so I had to visit her at home every month.
As the days went by, my mother gradually became less sick.
I'm happy and spend more time at work and with my children.
The company has been busy with a lot of things in the past six months, and the children are about to take the college entrance examination, so I haven't contacted my stepfather and mother much.
Until one day, my stepfather suddenly called me and said that I should hurry home for a trip, and I was shocked and suddenly felt uneasy.
I quickly arranged the company's affairs and went to the high-speed rail station in a hurry, and arrived home that night.
When I got home, I knocked on the door, and my brother opened the door for me, and as soon as I entered the room, I saw my mother lying on the bed in the bedroom, and my stepfather was sitting next to my mother, as if he was talking something.
When my mother saw me coming back, she said to me in a weak voice of mosquitoes and flies, "Son, my mother misses you." ”
I looked at such a weak mother, and remembered when she was a child, she cried for the life of our mother, and tears rolled in my eyes.
Or seeing my expression, my mother looked at me and then at my stepfather, and then said with difficulty: "I'm a little sleepy, Ah Hua, I will honor your uncle in the future, he didn't take a lot of favors to let you go to high school, and he provided for you in the years you went to college, you must not be a wolf-hearted person." ”
I grabbed my mother's hand and said in a solemn tone: "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely support my uncle and take care of him so that everyone envy him." ”
When my mother heard what I said, she also smiled with satisfaction, and then said, "I'm tired, so I'll sleep for a while, and when I wake up, we'll have dinner together as a family of four." ”
After all, my mother didn't wake up, she left in her sleep, and she didn't suffer any sin, but I still feel sad that my mother is gone.
After the funeral for my mother, I stayed in my hometown for a few days, and I was very depressed for the past few days, the person who gave birth to me and raised me did it, and I no longer had a mother.
When I was about to leave my hometown, my stepfather took me to the high-speed rail station, and my stepfather comforted me all the time.
I know he's afraid I'm too sad, but why shouldn't he be sad, he has shared a bed with his mother for more than 30 years, and he has a son, and the relationship between them is probably already regarded as family.
On the way back, I suddenly received a message on my phone, which was a voice message from my stepfather.
The stepfather said in his voice: "Ah Hua, your mother is gone, but your father is still there, this will always be your home, you will always be your father's daughter, your brother's sister, remember to go home often." ”
After listening to my stepfather's voice, I was also moved to tears, and at the same time, I secretly made up my mind to go home again next month.
