    After the review, we went down to the first floor with a very relaxed mood.  Considering my father's special eating habits seven or eight times a day, we first went to the "Corn Man" near the Municipal People's Hospital and ordered two bowls of porridge.  That time, both parents ate very sweetly.  Especially my father kept praising "delicious"!  Looking at my father's wolf-like eating, I had to persuade my father to eat slowly from time to time.  In fact, under our continuous instillation, my father already knew that eating too hot food and eating too fast would cause certain damage to the esophagus, which would easily lead to esophageal diseases over time.  However, father's irritable temper is not so easy to change, so until now, father still eats very anxiously.  Regardless of whether it works or not, my sister and I always try to persuade my father every time we see him eating in a hurry.

    After our parents had finished eating, we just returned by car.  When we returned to our home in the city, it was past ten o'clock.  Don't worry about our lunch, though.  Because, when I was in the hospital, I already expected that I would not be able to cook in time, so I called my sister a long time ago and asked her to buy vegetables and go to my house to prepare lunch.  Some people may be surprised.  Didn't you say that your home is far from the hospital?  Why not just go straight to your sister's for lunch?  That's because, although my sister's home is close, the floors I live in are high.  My father didn't want to endure the pain of climbing high while his body was still recovering.  It is undeniable that one of the very important reasons why my father chose this way is that my family lives on the first floor and there is no need to climb stairs.  But, I think that's definitely not the only reason.  The father, who is deeply influenced by traditional culture, still subconsciously regards the married sister's home as someone else's home.  I can clearly feel that since the operation for esophageal cancer, my father has been quite family-loving.

    As soon as we came back, my sister hurriedly handed over the work at hand to my mother and me.  Because it's time to pick up the kids.  Mother wanted to make some soup for father to drink first, but father said, anyway, the meal will be ready soon, so it is better to wait a little longer.  So, while my mother and I were busy cooking lunch, my father half-lyed on the sofa in the living room and watched TV.

    The wife was the last one to come back.  Originally, we persuaded my father to eat first.  But the father with a strong family concept insisted on waiting for everyone to eat before he was willing to eat.  Knowing that her parents came to eat, the wife specially bought several cold dishes to take home.  This move of the wife added a lot of smiles to the calm faces of the waiting parents.

    That lunch was a reunion family dinner.  Except for my children who are eating in the kindergarten, our big family (father, mother, brother-in-law, sister, nephew, and my wife and I) are all gathered.  Just like the "joyful" lunch before my father's operation (you can watch 010 Strong Family Love), this time I still experienced the "warmth of family love".  But unlike last time, everyone is in a relaxed mood now.  Before the operation, none of us knew what would happen to our father?  Many people will be very unfortunate to lie on the operating table forever.  Even if there is no problem during the operation, there may be "complications" after the operation, and it may recur soon In short, under the circumstances that the situation is not optimistic, our hearts are extremely heavy.  It is precisely because we are full of worries that we will try our best to let my father deeply experience a perfect "family affection" before the operation.  Behind the "pleasure and harmony", in fact, Shangying hides our deep worries.  It can be said that the "warmth" last time was "deliberately created" by us.  But this time, the results of the reexamination were good, and the doctor's answer was "good"!  This successfully wiped away our deepest worries.  Combined with the gratifying recovery performance of my father after he was discharged from the hospital, we all thought at that time that his recovery was only a matter of time.  The earlier worries (worries about the recurrence of my father's esophageal cancer), in our opinion after this re-examination, are nothing but unfounded worries.

    What impressed me particularly was that during this lunch, my father had a very strong appetite.  The momentum when eating has caught up with the time of health.  We were thrilled to see it.  So, my sister and I kept persuading my father, "Slow down! Slow down!" At that time, my father really wanted to eat.  However, we are afraid that eating too much greasy food will backfire.  That's why I kept persuading "Dad, eat less and eat more!" And my father would reply with some dissatisfaction: "I know. I know it!"

    In order to show that he really "has a number".  After dinner, my father told us a true story.  It is said that XX is also a patient with esophageal cancer. After the operation, he recovered well, so he ate desperately.  It is said that two bowls are eaten every time.  Talking and making gestures.  That meant that the bowl was much bigger than the one he used.  As a result, the esophageal junction is stretched and thinned because the stomach is always too heavy.  Later, I had to do "expansion surgery".  Then, the father mocked this so-and-so vigorously.  At the same time, he emphasized that he did not eat that much and would not eat that much.  "Anyway, you can eat seven or eight meals a day.?!  What a delicious thing!  Can't it be saved for another meal?  Why do you have to eat so much at one time before giving up?  "The implication is that he will never be as ignorant as that person, who actually brought himself the unreasonable disaster of "expansion surgery" for the blessing of his tongue.

    As the saying goes, "People are iron, rice is steel".  Under normal circumstances, people will regard "food intake" as the most important criterion for measuring a person's physical condition.  For example, if a person is terminally ill, relatives and friends will definitely take the time to see it.  After reading it, it is estimated that there are usually two kinds of evaluations.  "So-and-so, I don't eat much anymore! It's about to die! It's probably a few days away!" "So-and-so, I can still eat a lot at every meal! I don't think there will be any problems in the short term (life-threatening  )!" At that time, we were more or less influenced by this kind of thinking.  What's more, we don't think that father has fallen into a desperate situation in life.  Seeing father's strong appetite and much larger appetite than in the hospital, subconsciously, we all thought that father should be considered free from the danger of relapse.  Therefore, at that warm family dinner, our smiles were definitely from the bottom of our hearts, without the slightest bit of affectation, and we definitely did not deliberately pretend to make our father happy.  Compared with the last time, the "joy" in "Happiness" this time has nothing to do with "deliberate creation".  It was truly an expression of truth.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
