What's the point of my father's college?
Father, this university has been sensible since then? My father and I don't talk much. Father is an orphan? Losing your mother at the age of five? Lost his father at the age of 9? He began to live alone when he was a teenager. Back then? All the children his age in the village are studying? Father follows them to school every day? Follow all the way to the classroom door? Don't say that. Does father know? The classroom has nothing to do with him? Poverty made him belong to another world prematurely. Many years later? When I became the first college student in the village? Father can't sleep at night. That night? He has my acceptance letter? Under the dim kerosene lamp? Closer, farther? Watch it again and again? I know he is hiding his inner ecstasy. After a long time? Father just returned the notice to me? Whisper? "Take away? Don't lose it. " The next day? Father came to town specially to invite the projection team? Come to the village to show movies? Celebrate my admission to the university. And then what? He bought firecrackers and incense sticks again? Take me to the grave on the mountain at the head of the village. At the grave of every ancestor? Father really knelt down? Mutter something? It looks funny. Not only that? He asked me to kneel with him? I was blessed by my ancestors when I said I could go to college. School is about to start? My father took me to the county seat by coach. I remember it clearly? He was wearing a big jacket and pleated coarse trousers that day? Two black legs are exposed below. I got in the car? The car hasn't left yet? My father has been standing outside the window watching me. Stop looking when someone walks? He adjusts his position from time to time? To make sure you can see me all the time. Is the long-distance bus station full of smoke? Sparse people are piling up in the east and west? Father stood there alone. When did the car start? Father hurried to the window? Put your hand on the glass and say to me? "Go out? Take care of yourself? We are farmers? Don't compare with others. " At this time? The first time I saw my father's eyes red? It turns out that my father cries, too. I was in adolescence? Don't want to have too much emotional communication with your father? So I feel embarrassed. Why don't I turn my head away? Not to see my father. Those four years in Wuhan? Every winter vacation? Students began to worry about train tickets. Whenever this happens. Someone at the station will always move the service to school? There is a ticket office in the open square of the campus. I have been married to my fellow villagers one after another? Long queues on cold nights? Waiting for the ticket to go home. I want to know why. Queue up to buy tickets every time? I always think of my father. But? I hate to admit it, but I am eager to go home? Because I miss my father. Get off the train? Do I have to take a bus? After arriving in our small county? Change a tricycle to jump 15km mountain road? Just arrived in town? I saw my father squatting on the side of the road smoking. Those years? My father has been waiting for me in the same place. Every time the car doesn't stop I saw my father crouching under the abandoned street lamp. Did you see a car coming? He stood up at once? Ha, angry? A hand in a cage? Explore a white-haired head? Scanning the people who jumped off the tricycle with their eyes. Behind my father? His bike rings everywhere except the bell. Did you finally find me? Father began to laugh. He's thin? Smile? The wrinkles on the face are more prominent. Every time I ask him? How long have you been here? He always said? I just arrived myself. Too many times? I'd rather believe it. My father and I touched the darkness? Walk silently for about half an hour? Come to Shahe. Shallow water on weekdays? The boat will never reach the shore. My father and I just stripped down to our underwear? Go down to the biting river and walk for a while? That's how I got on the boat. Standing on the boat? A river wind is blowing? My wet leg hurts like a knife. Standing on the boat once? I shivered and thought? When did you come? This is how my father came by bike. Think so? Tears welled up in my eyes. Fortunately, it was already dark? Neither the father nor the boatman found it. Back then? I'd rather tell others what I think? Instead of expressing my feelings for my father. Abandon the ship and go ashore? Two people continue to walk in the field? You can smell the grass in the night wind. My father and I kept silent all the way. The closer to the village? The clearer the dog barks? Hard work? Finally home. For many years to come? Father sent the children away one by one? Take them home one by one like this. But in the end? Did the children still leave him one by one? Went to the real distance. Mine? One of the three brothers and sisters? what's up One went to college. That is to say? Does that include me? A * * * out of the father's hand? A college student. Father once said to mother? Every time a college student comes out of home? Will he think of those moments when he turned back from the classroom door? Think of him going to school with his friends? Time to go home. Is mom right? We went to college? Actually, it's my dad's college. What if in this world? Is there such a person? He's willing to give you everything? With his dreams? So what? At least he trusts you. What if he can accompany you all the way to the place he dreams of? And you just hide behind the halo and watch you silently? So what? He loves you very much. He knows you have his blood on you? Your happiness means everything to him. Should we still have such heavy love? Dedicated to our father who has always loved us.
