My name is Wang Zhiqiang, I am 67 years old, and I have worked in a state-owned enterprise all my life as a technician before I retired. My wife's name is Li Xiulan, who also just retired this year, and she works as a teacher in an elementary school. We have a son named Wang Wei, who is now in his 30s and is a manager of a private company. Wang Wei has a wife named Xiaowen, a young and beautiful girl, a housewife. Our family lives on the outskirts of the city and lives an ordinary but happy life.
One day, I was sitting in the living room drinking tea, when suddenly Wang Wei hurriedly walked in and said anxiously: "Dad, Mom, I have something to discuss with you!" My wife and I looked at each other and couldn't help but feel a little worried. Wang Wei has never taken the initiative to discuss anything with us, what will it be this time?
I frowned slightly and asked, "What's the matter, what's the matter?" Wang Wei paused, looked a little embarrassed and said: "Actually, my company's funds have been a little difficult to turn over recently, and it is a little difficult for the time being, so ...... I want to borrow some money from you. ”
Hearing this, Li Xiulan and I couldn't help but show hesitant expressions. After all, we are not a wealthy family, and our life after retirement is supported by a monthly pension, but we are reluctant to see our son in difficulty. Li Xiulan said softly: "Wang Wei, this ...... We are not very wealthy, and our pension is only enough for us to spend on our own. ”
When Wang Wei heard this, he looked a little lost, but he immediately cheered up: "Then, can I borrow a little of your pension from you?" I'll give it back to you, and I won't be delayed for long. ”
Li Xiulan and I glanced at each other, and we couldn't help but hesitate. Although our pension is not much, it is also the savings of many years of hard work, how can we casually lend it to others? But looking at his son's anxious expression, he felt that he couldn't bear to refuse. I paused, then finally sighed and said, "Okay, I'll talk to your mom about it." ”
Li Xiulan and I stepped aside and exchanged words in a low voice. In the end, we decided to accede to my son's request. After all, he is our son, and we can't sit idly by when there are difficulties. I gently patted Wang Wei on the shoulder and said, "Okay, we promise to lend you a part of the pension, but you must remember to pay us back on time." ”
When Wang Wei heard this, he immediately smiled and thanked him repeatedly. Looking at his happy appearance, Li Xiulan and I couldn't help but feel gratified. After all, as a parent, it is a good thing to be able to help your son.
However, I never imagined that this decision would cause a family storm and change the fate of our family......
Soon after, Wang Wei came to me to discuss another matter with Li Xiulan. He said he wanted to buy a new car because the car was several years old, broke down frequently, and it was not cost-effective to repair. He said he was going to use some of the pension we had lent him to buy a car with some company money. Li Xiulan and I fell into hesitation again. Although we were willing to help our son, we were a little worried about lending such a large sum of money all at once. After all, our pension is also limited, and we can't blindly meet our son's requirements.
"Dad, Mom, I really need to change the car this time, the current car is too bad." Wang Wei made a helpless expression as he spoke, "As you know, I have to drive to and from work every day, and if something goes wrong with the car, it will have a big impact on my work." ”
Li Xiulan and I glanced at each other, and the hesitation in my heart was still there. After all, the price of a new car is not low, and the money we lent him has not yet been paid off. But looking at his son's eyes, he felt distressed. He is our only son and we always want the best for him.
"Wang Wei, this ......" Li Xiulan wanted to speak and stopped, obviously falling into difficult thinking.
Seeing that we were hesitant, Wang Wei hurriedly said: "Mom, Dad, I promise you that this time it will be the last time I will borrow money from you." I'll pay off my debts as soon as possible. ”
Hearing this, Li Xiulan and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If Wang Wei can repay the loan on time, it will be worth lending him money. So, we finally agreed to his request and agreed to lend him some more money to buy a car.
Wang Wei listened to our reply, laughed happily, and thanked him repeatedly. He said that he would buy a suitable car as soon as possible and promised to repay us the previous loan as soon as possible. Looking at his sincere appearance, Li Xiulan and I couldn't help but feel gratified. After all, as a parent, it's a blessing to be able to help your child.
However, we never imagined that this decision would cause us more distress and might even change the fate of our family......
After Wang Wei bought a new car, the atmosphere at home became a little different for a while. He's always smug about the performance and appearance of the new car, and we can't help but be happy with his happiness. However, as time went on, we gradually found that Wang Wei's attitude seemed to have changed slightly.
He began to become more distant, rarely communicating with us, spending most of his time in his room or outside busy with work. In the past, he used to eat and chat with us, but now he often makes excuses. Li Xiulan and I both felt a little strange, but we were embarrassed to ask directly.
It wasn't until one day that we heard some bad rumors that we began to suspect Wang Wei's behavior. I heard that he has been out socializing with some indiscriminate people lately, and often returns late. This news makes us very worried, after all, Wang Wei is our only son, and we want him to live a stable life.
"Dad, Mom, I have some things to deal with lately, and I may have to stay outside for a few days." Wang Wei said with a hesitant expression, his eyes avoiding our gaze.
Li Xiulan and I glanced at each other, and we both felt a little uneasy. We know very well that there must be some reason for Wang Wei's sudden decision, and it is likely to be related to those bad rumors. But as parents, we can't question him directly, we can only trust him as much as possible, hoping that he can change his mind as soon as possible.
"Okay, if you have something to deal with, as long as everything is safe." I tried to keep my composure, but I couldn't hide my worries.
Wang Wei nodded, turned around and left the house. Looking at his departing back, Li Xiulan and I fell into silence. We don't know what will happen in the future, but the only thing we can do is to wait, for Wang Wei to understand and return to us......
A few days after Wang Wei left home, the atmosphere at home became extremely dull. Li Xiulan and I are both looking forward to our son coming home as soon as possible, but there has been no news. Everyday life has become extremely monotonous, and we can only support each other to get through it.
Just as we were in a hurry, one afternoon, the doorbell rang suddenly. Li Xiulan and I were both surprised, and hurriedly walked to the door to open it. Standing outside the door was a strange young man, who looked a little tired, but there was a hint of determination in his eyes.
"You are Wang Wei's parents, right?" The young man asked politely.
Li Xiulan and I glanced at each other, and we both felt a little uneasy. Wang Wei's sudden departure from home, was there some accident? The worries on our minds are growing.
"Yes, do you have anything to do with us?" I tried to stay calm, but I couldn't hide the anxiety in my heart.
The young man pondered for a moment, and then said, "I am a friend of Wang Wei, and he has been in some trouble lately and needs some help. ”
Hearing this, Li Xiulan and I couldn't help but feel nervous. What kind of trouble did Wang Wei encounter? Where the hell is he now? We were all overwhelmed with fear.
He ...... Where is he now? Was he injured? I asked nervously, my voice shaking.
The young man shook his head and said soothingly, "Don't worry, he's not hurt now. It's just that there are some financial difficulties that need some funds to solve. ”
Li Xiulan and I listened to this, and our hearts were immediately relieved. Although Wang Wei's financial difficulties have worried us, at least he is not injured, which makes us feel a little more relieved.
"So where is he now? We can go to him. I asked eagerly, hoping to see my son soon.
The young man pondered for a moment, and then said, "He is now staying in a small inn, and I can take you to meet him." ”
Hearing this, Li Xiulan and I immediately felt grateful, and hurriedly expressed our willingness to go with him to find Wang Wei. We couldn't wait to get dressed and follow the young man out of the house, with only one thought in our hearts, and that was to see our son......
Following the young man to the small hotel, we waited anxiously for the moment when we met Wang Wei. Finally, at the door of a humble room, we met our son.
"Wang Wei!" I called out his name, and the worry and longing in my heart turned into a surge of emotion, and I could barely suppress my emotions.
When Wang Wei heard the voice, he raised his head, his expression was a little flustered, but then turned into a smile of comfort. "Mom, Dad, why are you here?" There was a hint of guilt and unease in his voice.
"We heard you're in some trouble, so we're rushing over to see you." Li Xiulan's tone was full of worry and love.
Wang Wei lowered his head and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, Mom, Dad, I couldn't tell you earlier." ”
I walked up to Wang Wei, patted him on the shoulder, and said distressedly: "Child, don't hold it in your heart if there is anything, your parents are here to support you." ”
Wang Wei raised his head, tears of gratitude flashed in his eyes, and he said, "I know, Mom and Dad." Actually, I've been having some trouble lately, but I'll try to fix it. ”
We sat down, and Wang Wei told us about his recent experience. It turned out that his company had encountered some problems with broken capital chains, which led to poor cash turnover, and he was forced to take on heavy debts. To solve this problem, he had thought about taking out a loan from a bank, but was turned away because of his poor personal credit history. In desperation, he could only borrow money from some unscrupulous elements, and as a result, he fell into a deeper quagmire.
After listening to Wang Wei's story, Li Xiulan and I felt heavy in our hearts. As parents, we hope to be able to protect our sons from any harm, but the reality is always full of helplessness and hardship.
"Don't worry, kid, Mom and Dad will do everything they can to help you get through this." I held Wang Wei's hand tightly and said solemnly.
Wang Wei nodded, his eyes full of gratitude and determination. "Thank you, Mom and Dad. I'll try to fix the problem and pay off the debt as soon as possible. ”
In the small hotel, we poured out each other's hearts, and despite the difficulties, we knew that if we worked together, any difficulties could be overcome. This experience has strengthened our belief that the power of family is infinite and that as long as we are united, no challenge should be feared.
