I was born in an ordinary family, and my parents were ordinary workers, and they used their hard work to create a good environment for me to grow up. I have been obedient and sensible since I was a child, and I have excellent academic performance, which is the pride of my parents. After graduating from university, I successfully entered a well-known company with a stable job and a good income. In the midst of a busy job, I met my current wife, and we fell in love with each other and entered the palace of marriage.
After we got married, we lived happily ever after, and soon we had our daughter. The arrival of our daughter brought us endless joy and also made us feel our responsibility as parents. As my daughter grew older, I began to think about the question: If I had to choose a son-in-law for my daughter in the future, what kind of person would I choose?
When my daughter was 18 years old, I accompanied her to a reunion of her college classmates. At the party, I noticed a young man named Li Ming, who was well-behaved, spoke with humor, and gave people a sense of stability. After the meeting, I asked my daughter about Li Ming's situation.
My daughter told me that Li Ming was her classmate, with excellent academic performance and sincerity, and was the prince charming in the hearts of many girls. Hearing this, I had a good impression of Li Ming, but I didn't say anything right away. I know that as a father, I am responsible for my daughter's well-being and cannot act hastily.
I began to pay attention to Li Ming's every move, trying to understand his personality. I found that he not only worked hard in his studies, but also cared about others and was helpful in life. Once, I saw him take the initiative to help an elderly man cross the street, and at that moment, I was impressed with him.
However, just when I thought Li Ming was a trustworthy person, I unexpectedly learned the news: Li Ming had been punished by the school for fighting. This news left me in a conflict, and I didn't know how to face this reality. On the one hand, I feel that a person's past does not determine his future; On the other hand, I was worried that my daughter would be harmed.
After much deliberation, I decided to talk to Li Ming. I told him that I knew about his past and I wanted him to be honest with me if he had really changed. Li Ming looked at me with a determined glint in his eyes, and he said, "Uncle, I know that my past worries you, but I promise, it was just an impulse when I was young. Now that I understand the importance of responsibility, I will prove it to you with my actions. ”
Looking at Li Ming's sincere eyes, I believed his words. I told him that I would give him a chance, but he had to use his performance to earn the trust of me and my daughter. Li Ming nodded heavily, indicating that he would definitely do it.
Since then, Li Ming really didn't disappoint me. He worked harder in his studies and became the top of his class; In life, he cares about his classmates and actively participates in various public welfare activities, which has been well received by everyone. I gradually let go of my worries and began to accept him.
In the blink of an eye, her daughter graduated from college, and Li Ming also found a good job. They decided to walk into the palace of marriage hand in hand. At the wedding, I looked at my daughter's happy smile and my heart was full of emotion. I knew that I had made the right decision and that I had chosen a trustworthy husband for my daughter.
However, just after the wedding, Li Ming found me, and he told me a secret. It turned out that he had a conflict with his classmates because of a misunderstanding, and the fight incident made him feel deeply guilty. The reason why he studied hard and changed himself was to make up for his past mistakes.
I was shocked to hear this secret, and at the same time I was touched by Li Ming's honesty and courage. I told him that I had forgiven him for his past a long time ago, because I knew that a person's qualities depend not only on his past, but also on his present and future actions.
At this point in the story, I would like to tell you that as parents, we always want to choose the perfect partner for our children. However, there are no perfect people in the world, and everyone has their own past and shortcomings. When choosing a son-in-law, we should focus more on his qualities and potential than on his past. Only in this way can we truly take responsibility for the well-being of our children.
For Li Ming, his growth and change is exactly what I expect to see. I believe that he will be a good husband and a good father. And I will always support them and wish them happiness.
This is my story, a story of love and trust. I hope that every parent can be like Li Ming and me, feel with their hearts, choose with their hearts, and create a better future for their children.
