    ? Chapter 14 "Heavy Walnuts"

    ————————

    "Girl, listen to mom-"

    "No, I won't listen!"

    This is one of the silhouettes of my daily conversations with my mother. It’s not that I’m rude, because parents all over the world seem to have a common problem of being long-winded, which annoys me very much!

    At this time, I sat on the bus to work and started a new week of journey.  But when I opened the backpack and saw the bag of walnuts again, I felt dumbfounded for a while. I just thought this bag of walnuts was a "ghost" thing!  But when I saw a message on WeChat on my mobile phone, my heart suddenly felt sour, and then I felt a warm current

    ————

    "Don't be annoyed. Anyway, I installed it for you. Be sure to eat these walnuts"

    ————

    This is the message my mother sent me. It is simple and rude, without rhetoric, and even the punctuation marks are missing arms and legs.  But for some reason, with just such a simple sentence, I feel I won't be afraid of anything this week.

    Because thousands of miles away, there are still people who miss me.  This person is no one else, everyone has a person, but also the only one in my life - mother.

    As the night grew thicker, the bus quietly passed through the night, from the bustling Xi'an to the flat and wide expressway.  In more than three hours, we crossed the mountains and rivers and went to the place where we pioneered and struggled - the Long County Management Office.

    Sitting in the car, I was chewing walnuts bit by bit.  However, these are not ordinary walnuts, but walnuts that my mother soaked in water in advance and peeled the skins by herself.

    "You two are more hypocritical than the other, and so is your cousin!"

    At that time, my mother looked at the three of us who were eating the white walnuts with disdainful eyes, and said, "I asked you if you want to eat walnuts? All three said no. Wait until I peel them by myself."  , and when I bring it to you in person, heh! Every one of them tastes delicious!"

    "Oh, why don't you just eat it for nothing?" I chewed the walnuts, and the deliciousness I felt on my taste buds made me raise my voice: "Besides, it's mom, you insist on peeling it!"

    "Bah - if I don't peel the skin for you, don't you bother to eat it?" Mom left this sentence and went straight to the kitchen.  When I saw her turning and leaving, showing her hands and nails that were soaked white during the action, my eyes that I didn't take seriously seemed to be stung.

    By the way, how could I forget to ask: Mom, have you eaten walnuts?

    By the way, how could I forget to say: Mom, thank you for the walnuts, they are so delicious!

    Sometimes, we often take other people's kindness as the "should" mentioned in the previous article.  This serious flooding phenomenon is particularly prominent in daily life, especially in the aspect of the relationship between parents and children, it is even more "natural"!

    ————

    "My parents should give me money!"

    "My parents should tolerate me!"

    ————

    We often leave our best temper to others, but we are too stingy to share the most basic gratitude and tolerance with our loved ones.  Then, the loved one has nothing to fear.  But "love" this kind of thing, I personally think that there is no such thing as "not asking for anything in return"!  Otherwise, if one party blindly takes and one party blindly pays, over time, hidden dangers comparable to volcanic eruptions will surely be planted!  At the same time, it will also make the "heart of love" lose temperature, stop beating, and eventually die.  No matter family affection, love, friendship, it is the same truth, right?

    "Mom, let me wash the dishes for you." I looked at my mother who was busy doing housework, and said this sentence when I was about to leave again.  I thought to myself, is this my reward as a daughter?

    "Where it's cool, stay there! You're going to go to work by car later, so I dare not bother you!" Mom said without turning her head while she was skillfully washing the dishes.

    I was speechless for a while.  In fact, let me say some nasty words like sweet words, I can write them, but I can't say them even if I am killed!  So, I had no choice but to touch the back of my head, pretending to be impatient, and said, "Okay, okay, kindness is like a donkey's liver and lungs."

    Mom didn't talk to me anymore, she was really busy, especially every time I came back.

    When I got in the car again, I saw the bag of peeled walnuts in my bag again.  Suddenly, I realized that there is a kind of love in this world that really does not need anything in return. It is called family love!

    "Mom, thank you." I opened my lips slightly and spit out these words silently.  Afterwards, the vehicle starts as usual and I see ???To the parents who hide not far away every time, silently watching the bus leave.

    But—I can hear them calling clearly!  Because their voices seem to have the magic power to penetrate the car body and travel through time and space. It is a sincere call from their parents: "Girl, come on! Remember to take care of yourself!"

    "Oh, why are these walnuts so heavy?!" Finally, I ate the last walnut in the car, and there were some tears in the corners of my eyes unconsciously, but my stomach was full
