As for Gu Qingcheng, he is not an ungrateful person. Instead, as his horizons broadened, he became stronger without realizing it.
But, at this moment, Gu Qingcheng told the two elders——
I am a college student and I am indeed very good.
But you have trained a college student, you are even more amazing.
To be blunt: What's wrong with college students? I'm still the father (mother) of college students.
Gu's father and mother looked at their son closely, making sure that he was not just talking casually, but was truly proud of them.
"Oh, the cigarettes in this city are good, but they're too strong!"
Father Gu pretended to be choked and raised his hand to wipe away his tears.
Mother Gu's eyes were also red.
Oh, it’s so great to have raised a filial and conscientious son.
Even though their son is so successful, he doesn't despise them at all.
Unlike that ungrateful guy from the next village, who worked as a temporary worker in a county factory for just a few days and came back complaining about this and that.
The funniest thing is that he also dislikes his parents' accents, saying they are too rustic.
He doesn't even call them mom and dad, but insists on calling them dad and mom.
I won’t say anything more, you still have to talk about me.
It would be fine if he was good at learning, but his speech is so weird that it is awkward to listen to.
"Tsk! I just went to a county town and I don't even know who I am anymore."
"My son is still studying at a university in Beijing, and he hasn't said he'll call us mom and dad."
"You still think it's unfashionable? Why is it unfashionable? Our ancestors have all said so for generations. He's the only one who's unfashionable."
Gu's mother often complained to her fellow villagers.
And she also had the confidence to laugh at that man - her son was in the capital, and after Gu Qingcheng returned home, he did not forget his roots and spoke his hometown dialect.
Gu's mother is illiterate, but very clear-headed.
She knew that her confidence in confronting others came from her son.
Now, her son respects them even more than before, and Gu's mother's heart is already in the clouds.
As for her son's suggestion of taking them to the capital, Gu's mother was not so persistent.
"Alas, your father and I are old, so it doesn't matter whether we go to the capital or not."
It would cost a lot of money for the whole family to go back and forth.
Her son doesn't have a job yet, so how could he have any money?
Father Gu didn't say anything. It wasn't that he didn't want to respond, but in this family, he didn't need to speak, and there was no need.
What his wife meant was what he meant.
He continued to squat on the doorstep, smoking the first cigarette in his life with great care.
"Ah? You're not going to the capital?"
"Mom, brother, I want to go."
"I want to go, too."
Mother Gu loves money and loves her son even more, so she can control her desires.
The original owner's three younger siblings didn't think so much and all expressed their wishes.
"Go! Everyone!"
Gu Qingcheng was like a pillar that could support the family, and she made the final decision.
Mother Gu's lips moved, as if she wanted to say something.
But when he thought about his son, he realized that he was no longer a child. He was a college student, a future cadre, and the most promising person in the Gu family.
Mother Gu subconsciously wanted to save face for her son.
Forget it, let’s find some time later so that the mother and daughter can have a good talk.
After lunch, Gu's mother wanted to find an opportunity to persuade her son again.
Gu Qingcheng took the initiative to find Gu's mother, "Mom, I want to make something, so I need to go to the county town."
"But I haven't been to the county town for several years, and I don't recognize it anymore."
"Mom, can you accompany me for a walk?"
What older parents fear most when facing their adult children is that they can no longer help their children.
Hearing Gu Qingcheng's initiative to "help", Gu's mother was only happy, "Why not?"
"Oh, son, even though your mother hasn't been to other places, I'm still very familiar with our county."
When Gu Qingcheng heard her mother bragging about herself, she agreed very enthusiastically, "Yes! Mom, you are amazing."
"Otherwise, you wouldn't have given birth to such a promising son like me."
Mother Gu: ...When did my son become so, so confident?
Ha ha!
Although I felt a little uncomfortable, I was still very happy.
Because of such a son, she feels closer and there is no sense of distance between them.
The mother and son talked and laughed, and went to the county town in the village ox cart.
It took more than an hour to arrive.
Although Mother Gu talks big, she becomes restrained when she arrives in the county town.
There's no way, the county town is also a city.
In this era, country people instinctively have a sense of inferiority.
However, thinking of her son, Mother Gu mustered up her courage and stopped a passerby to ask, "How do I get to the diesel engine factory?"
When she was at home, Gu's mother even laughed at the man from the next village who deliberately insisted on speaking Mandarin.
At this moment, facing the people from the city, Gu's mother couldn't help but change her emphasis.
It's half Mandarin and half local dialect, which sounds a bit funny.
Gu Qingcheng always looked at her mother with admiration - this is what it means to be a strong mother. She was obviously inferior and afraid, but she still stood in front of her son.
Perhaps, what Mrs. Gu was thinking was: Even if it is embarrassing, it is the shame for me as a mother.
My son is still that noble college student.
