"That's great. Mom and Dad will definitely go to see the exhibition when it opens." He Yuliang said with relief.
After dinner, He Yuliang and Li Xiumei accompanied the children to do their homework and tutored them. Seeing the children studying hard, he felt extremely pleased and satisfied. He understood that home is the cradle for children to grow up, and he has the responsibility to create a warm and harmonious environment for them.
Late at night, He Yuliang sat in his study, looking at the moonlight outside the window, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. He knew that the courtyard house was not only a place to live, but also the root of the family and the support for the children's growth. He was determined to protect this home well, make it the spiritual home of the family, and let the children grow up healthily and happily here.
The next morning, He Yuliang got up early, prepared some daily necessities, and decided to visit his parents who lived in the suburbs. His parents were old and in poor health, so he would take time to visit them every month. Filial piety was something he had always insisted on.
Li Xiumei had already prepared the gifts for her parents and placed them neatly at the door. He Yuliang put these things into the car and set off with Li Xiumei. Along the way, there were green trees and fresh air. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the mood became particularly relaxed.
When they arrived at their parents' home, He Yuliang and Li Xiumei were warmly welcomed into the house. When their mother, Aunt Zhang, saw them, she smiled from ear to ear, "Yuliang, Xiumei, you are here, come in and sit down."
"Mom, we came to see you and Dad and brought you some things." He Yuliang supported his mother and said softly.
Father He also came out of the house, looking energetic. "It's good that you are here. What can you bring? We have everything we need at home."
"Dad, Mom, this is a little gift from us." Li Xiumei said with a smile, "Are you and Dad in good health?"
"I'm fine, it's just an old problem that occasionally occurs." Mr. He said with a smile, "Don't worry too much, we two old people are living a good life."
The family sat together and chatted about family matters. He Yuliang told his parents about the children's studies. He and Aunt Zhang were very happy to hear about the excellent performance of their grandchildren, and smiled with satisfaction on their faces.
Time passed quietly in the pleasant conversation. In the evening, He Yuliang and Li Xiumei reluctantly said goodbye to their parents and drove home. When they returned to the courtyard, night had fallen and the courtyard was quiet and warm. Li Xiumei looked at the lights in the courtyard and said softly, "This home is really becoming more and more like home."
He Yuliang hurried home, feeling irritable all the way. What was supposed to be a wonderful day turned out to be unsatisfactory because of a small accident.
When he was about to lock the gate, he accidentally got scratched by the old door lock on the door frame. A clear scratch immediately appeared on the back of his hand, leaving a little blood. He didn't pay much attention to it at the time and hurried out, just thinking about taking the children home first and then treating the wound.
Now back home, he looked up at the clock and saw that it was already evening. Li Xiumei saw that he looked tired and asked with concern: "Yuliang, what's wrong? You don't look right."
He Yuliang shook his head and sighed softly: "It's nothing, I just accidentally got scratched by the door lock when I went out."
Li Xiumei frowned immediately after hearing this: "Let me take a look, don't be careless."
He Yuliang held out his hand for his wife to examine carefully. Li Xiumei took out the first aid kit and carefully treated the wound, wiping it clean and applying antibacterial ointment, and then bandaging it. Her movements were gentle and delicate, as if she was caressing the most precious treasure.
"It should be fine now." Li Xiumei put down the medicine box and gently held He Yuliang's hand. "Be careful when you go out next time. Don't let this happen again."
He Yuliang felt his wife's care and his heart warmed. He smiled and nodded. "I understand. I will be careful next time."
As night fell, the courtyard was filled with the aroma of dinner. He Yuliang and Li Xiumei were busy preparing dinner together, chatting about family matters while cooking. The children also went home, and the family sat around the dining table, happily enjoying a sumptuous dinner.
After dinner, the children went back to their rooms to do their homework, while He Yuliang and Li Xiumei drank tea and chatted in the living room. The moonlight outside the window sprinkled softly in the yard, and everything seemed so peaceful and harmonious.
"Yuliang, why did you come back so late today?" Li Xiumei put down the teacup in her hand and asked with concern.
He Yuliang sighed and said frankly: "Actually, when I went out today, I was not only scratched by the door lock, but I also encountered some troubles."
"What's the matter?" Li Xiumei asked with concern, with worry flashing in her eyes.
"When I went to the market to buy vegetables, I met an acquaintance. Who knew he owed me a lot of money and refused to pay it back." He Yuliang said helplessly, "I tried to persuade him with kind words, but he didn't listen and even quarreled with me."
Li Xiumei frowned after hearing this. "This kind of person is really annoying and unreasonable."
"Yeah, I'm also very angry." He Yuliang shook his head gently, "But I also know that getting angry won't solve the problem. I can only try to find a solution."
"You're right." Li Xiumei smiled slightly, "However, if you encounter such things in the future, it's better not to intervene to avoid causing trouble."
He Yuliang nodded in agreement. "I understand. I will pay attention to it next time."
The two smiled at each other, and the troubles in their hearts seemed to dissipate with this simple conversation. They sat quietly in the living room, enjoying this rare tranquility.
After a while, He Yuliang stood up and said to Li Xiumei, "I'm going to take a shower. You should also go to bed early."
Li Xiumei nodded, "Okay, you should go to bed early too."
He Yuliang walked into the bathroom and turned on the hot shower. Suddenly, a warm steam filled the air. He took off his clothes and walked into the shower room, letting the hot water pour down from his head, refreshing his heart. He closed his eyes, feeling the water gently sliding over his skin, and his mood gradually relaxed.
He Yuliang slowly lay down on the bed, watching the mottled lights reflected on the ceiling. He was struggling in his heart, his thoughts were in a mess. Some of the expenses at home were indeed a bit high recently, especially the children's education expenses and family living expenses. He and Li Xiumei have been trying to save money, but sometimes they have to borrow some funds to deal with emergencies.
In this situation, he has always had an idea in his mind: should he give his parents some money as a support and filial piety to them?
