"Good thing? What good thing?" My mother was confused at first, and then immediately surprised, "Is she discharged from the hospital, and you are going to marry her right away?"
When I heard this, I almost didn't laugh out loud! My mother, the old lady, feels a little confused now. It's a good thing, doesn't it have to be a happy event? Apart from getting married, there is nothing good about it!
"No! It's your son I'm going to be on TV!" I quickly explained.
"That's it!" My mother curled her lips and looked disapproving. "What's so strange about being on TV? Your mother and I have been on it too!"
My mother said that when she was young, there was a program called "Audience on Demand" on the local TV station. In each issue, the host would go to a factory company. On the one hand, it was a propaganda company, and on the other hand, it also broadcasted something. Shows like cross talk sketches.
At that time, it was also a coincidence that the show went to my mother's unit, and while interviewing the leader, my mother was also filmed. In other words, she is just a background.
She remembered this for a lifetime! At that time, she was notified by a person that she would watch the show and be on TV by herself. After that, she also often mentioned this matter, and she seemed very proud!
In fact, this is not too strange. At that time, there was no internet, and there was no such thing as internet celebrity. It is a rare thing for people to be able to be on TV, so even if my mother just showed her face behind the leader, she was still excited.
"No! I'm on the "Emotional Fire Brigade" column!" I said to my mother with a proud expression.
"Oh? You were on that show?" My mother became a little bit more interested, because she usually likes watching this show.
"When did the audience go?" Then she asked again.
"Mom, what did your son forget? I'm going to be a guest of psychologist!" Then, I explained with a smile.
"What? You went to be a guest? What about the original teacher Zhang?" My mother was suddenly surprised and quickly asked.
I thought to myself, does the old lady like the original female expert so much? That Zhang Yiqian? Is that guy so good!
"Your son has been a guest, why are you still asking her!" I said with a slightly dissatisfied expression.
"That's right... I know who she is! When did you go to be a guest?" At this moment, a little smile appeared on my mother's face. Of course she knows very well that there is a world of difference between me and her on TV. How can she not be happy for me!
"The show just recorded yesterday, I will be able to see it this week!" I smiled again with a proud expression on my face.
"Oh! I said my son is amazing!" The old lady's sorrow finally disappeared, and her face is full of joy!
"There is still a good thing! Guess how much will it cost me to record a program?" I suddenly became mysterious
Asked eagerly.
"How much? Three hundred and five hundred?" My mother guessed such a small amount first.
"No! Guess again!" At this time, I was still naughty in front of my mother, shaking my head to let her continue to guess.
"One hundred? That's too little!" The old lady guessed the wrong direction.
"Guess more!" I was a little anxious.
"Can't guess... Guess more! Can I give you ten thousand, what good thing?" My mother said disapprovingly.
"Haha, it's ten thousand!" I finally revealed the answer with a smile.
"What!" The old lady said ten thousand just now, which was considered a sky-high price and impossible. Unexpectedly, the sky-high price turned out to be true, and she was stunned.
"Don't get excited, it's really ten thousand one, and there are still more than eight thousand dollars after tax!" I took my mother's hand and slowly explained.
"Heaven!" Obviously, the old lady was so excited, she sighed like this, "What have you done, they will give you so much money!"
"Mom, you don't know, it turns out that Zhang Yiqian, that teacher Zhang, there are still 12,000 issues!" I quickly explained.
"I... I really didn't expect... doing this to make money? Then what kind of clinic do you open!" Obviously, the income of nearly 40,000 yuan a month is an unimaginable huge amount for the old lady.
"The clinic has to be opened. There is no clinic. How can I be famous and not famous, why do people ask me to be a guest?" I continued my mother's words and continued.
"That's right... Son! You are finally promising!" My mother looked a little excited at this time, and it seemed as if I had reached the culmination of my life! Moreover, her expression is no longer just joy, even her eyes are a little moist!
Obviously, my mother felt that her son was on TV and became a celebrity, and with such a high income, her years of parenting could be considered to be overwhelming, and her son was finally successful!
But this is just her opinion, I don't feel anything like that now. Where is this! Besides, success or failure depends not only on how much money you make, right
When my mother got so excited, she actually gave me a bear hug like when I was little! Of course, I am already a tall man now, and she can't hold me anymore. However, the feelings of a loving mother made my heart surging for a while.
"Yeah, which one of your mothers are singing!" At this moment, my dad suddenly entered the door and was shocked when he saw this scene.
"Lao Gao, come and listen! My son is promising!" My mother let go of her arms, and hurriedly greeted my dad to come over, and couldn't wait to tell him the good news.
Of course, at this moment, my mother still habitually blurts out the three words "my son".
"What a good thing, another bite of your son! Your son is not my son?" My dad heard my mother say this
I can tell from a few words, this good thing should be good, the old couple has lived together for so long, he has already figured out my mother's temperament.
Every time my mother said: "What's wrong with my son, it must be something good for me, and every time she said: "Your son is like this or that, then I'm in trouble!"
However, when my dad listened to my mom's story about my good deeds, he was still taken aback. The old couple worked hard for a lifetime, and never had a time when they made 10,000 yuan a month. Now his son can make 10,000 yuan a week. How could he not be surprised.
"Okay! Great! I have to drink two glasses today!" My dad was happy for a while and offered to drink two glasses.
His health is not very good, and he has a slight cerebral infarction. Therefore, my mother has taken care of him a long time ago and will not let him drink. Today, the opportunity finally came!
"What to drink! What else to drink after having dinner!" My mother immediately objected, but did not agree!
"You can eat more after you have eaten it!" My dad also smiled at this time, looking very happy.
"By the way, Dad, you don't have to be on duty today?" I suddenly remembered this. My dad is now working as a watchman. He is on duty at a factory at night. Why did he go out and come back today
"Yeah, why are you back?" My mother was also happy for me, and only then realized that my dad came back very early today.
"Oh, I don't need to go anymore..." When mentioned this, my dad slapped his face with joy just now, and said with a sigh.
"What's the matter, Lao Gao?" My mother asked quickly with concern.
"The efficiency of the factory is no longer good, and it was officially declared closed today!" My dad said with a bit of disappointment.
In fact, my dad has already retired long ago. He couldn't stay free, so he went to this company to apply for a job as an elder man just to make more income. This is a private enterprise, a parts factory, this factory is not small in scale, how come it suddenly closed down!
"Dad, it's okay. I earn more now. When you turn around, you can just go to my mom's shop to help her, or go out for a stroll, play chess, etc., don't work so hard!" At this time, I hurriedly I comforted my dad.
In fact, my heart has always been a little sad. I'm so old, I haven't eaten my elders too much, and I haven't had a serious job. I opened a clinic in my home store. This is just getting on the right track, and I have some benefits.
Although my dad finds a job to do it more because he can't be free, he still wants to supplement his family. This makes me feel that I am not really a dutiful son.
Now my income is high and my career is on the right track. It’s time for the elderly to enjoy the happiness, or the factory closes. My dad in the province refuses to accept the old and always wants to go out to work. This time I can spend my old age leisurely. Live it!
But who knows, my dad didn't think so, he kept sighing. (End of this chapter)
