Chapter 6 Section 5

The boat was docking, Wei Zu and his grandmother stood on the deck, watching the shore from a distance. Grandma still looks like that, her waist is straight, her thin mouth is tightly closed, and her eyes are as sharp as a sharpened knife, making people afraid to face her.The grandmother glanced around silently for a while, sighed vaguely, and said to herself: "This place seems to be pretty good." Wei Zu was also looking around curiously.On the far coast, a stretch of green hills, piles of high and low houses, and the undulating sea water in front of him all made him feel novel and memorable.His whole world has changed since he left the big courtyard in Beiping where copper was banned all year round.Before this, he never knew that the world outside was so big and had so many different faces.In this new world, he felt as if he had grown up a lot and learned a lot.Although there is no teacher Meng in the new world, he still thinks it is better than the old world.Hearing his grandmother say that this place is good, he felt that it was just what he wanted, so he responded: "Grandma, this place is good, I like it."

"You'll like it better. Don't you always want to go to school? You can go to school here," said the grandmother. "Really? Ah! Grandma, I really want to go to school." Weizu raised his voice with joy. "Don't be so loud. What did grandma tell you? Children from rich families never yell—" the grandmother suddenly stopped talking, and after a while, she said with a smile: "Consolation Zu, your father is already waiting for us on the shore." "Where is my father?" Wei Zu stood on tiptoe nervously, looking over and over among the crowd on the shore. "Who is my father?"

"Look from here," the grandmother pointed to a group of people directly opposite on the bank. "Standing in the middle of the front row, the one in the gray suit and glasses, isn't that your dad?" "Oh! That man is Dad." Wei Zu fixedly looked at the man in gray suit, fair complexion and glasses on the bridge of his nose. Weizu didn't have the slightest memory of his father, and only got a vague impression from his mother, Lao Ding, his wife, and Lao Liang.He knew his father was a smart, good-looking, clean man who didn't swear or shout. "Only a person like your father is qualified to be called the young master. He is handsome, can speak, treats people leniently, and is filial. Your father is filial to your grandparents, and he has been obedient since childhood..." Lao Liang had more than once so to speak.

"Your father is good in everything, but he is a bit clueless, easy to be deceived and deceived." Grandma always ended with this sentence when she talked. Seeing his father for the first time, Wei Zu felt excited. "Grandma, I like Daddy, I will call 'Daddy' loudly later. I don't like the man in the red shirt, he gave me a lollipop to coax me to call me Daddy, but I don't—" Wei Zu was going too far In the excitement, even I couldn't figure out what I was talking about. "Shut up!" Grandma sternly stopped him from speaking. "What nonsense are you talking about? Where is the person in the red shirt? Why are you always dreaming? Haven't I told you many times? Don't talk nonsense, you can't take the nightmare you have when you sleep at night as a real thing. Wei Zu, Can't you remember what grandma said?"

"Remember..." Wei Zu lowered his head in shame. "Remember, still talking nonsense? Weizu, remember grandma's words. Those things in the past, that is, those things in the courtyard in Peking, are not true. They are things you imagined and dreamed about. No. It’s true, it’s false. Don’t say that anymore! Otherwise, people will laugh at you and say, ‘Liu Weizu is so old, he can’t tell the truth from the fake, and he’s talking nonsense with excuses.’ Weizu, remember grandma’s words.” Grandma His tone returned to his usual calm, and he explained slowly and orderly. "I remember grandma's words."

"I know you will remember. Zuzu is a good boy who knows how to be filial to grandma, right?" Grandma took him by the hand kindly. "I want to be filial to my grandma, I want to be filial to my father, and a good boy should be filial to his elders." Weizu recited a passage taught to him by Teacher Meng as if reciting a book. "Good boy, really sensible." Grandma smiled and praised. The boat docked, and Weizu's father, Liu Jixian, had already seen the mother and son standing on the deck.He didn't wave his hands wildly on the shore like other people picking up the boat, and shouted loudly the names of the relatives he wanted to pick up.He just took a few steps forward, standing a little more prominently, so that the relatives on the boat could see him more clearly.It wasn't until the boat was firmly anchored and boarded the sampan that he walked quickly to them with a smile on his face.

When the father saw the grandmother, he bowed deeply. "Mom, how was the journey? Are you tired?" "Fortunately, I'm not in my 70s and 80s. I can still bear it, and I'm not tired. The car is inside! Lao Liang and Lao Ding are watching. You have to find someone to move it!" "I have sent my secretary, Mr. Hong, to bring the donor to them." "You still use a secretary?" Grandma looked surprised. "I just used it. There are a lot of things to do, and no one can do errands. I have been looking around the factory these days." Wei Zu stared at his father, thinking that he spoke really kindly, as if he was talking to a customer of.

"You really want to open a factory?" "Mom, in this unfamiliar place, in this environment, the era of relying on the shade of our ancestors has passed, and we have to find a way to start a business. I have more or less studied abroad for two years, and I have to do something. What." When the father said this, it seemed that he was a child who had done something wrong and was waiting for forgiveness.The tone is very unnatural, a little shy. "It's good to have your words, your father will nod his head in the ground, and I can be an old lady with peace of mind." The grandmother put both hands on Weizu's shoulders and pushed him in front of his father. "Look! This is your son. I brought it to you. Wei Zu, why are you standing there in a daze and not calling him Dad?"

"Father." Wei Zu reservedly called out. "Hmm—" In fact, my father had been paying attention to Wei Zu for a long time, and now he looked at it more carefully.A look of sadness flashed across his fair face. "This child is well-grown and well-behaved. His mother taught him well." His father stroked Wei Zu's head with a pair of slender hands. "It's a pity that the six-year-old is almost full, and I haven't gone to school yet." My father sighed again. "You can't blame me for that." Grandma's tone was as sharp and forceful as a hammer hitting a nail. "Do you dare to send him to school? What will the woman do if she kidnaps him? She has already tricked him once. If she didn't have the money to go back to Shanghai, she would have taken the child away and never got it back. How much effort did we have to find him? Thanks to Lao Ding's sharp eyes and many connections—" Grandma lowered her voice.Speaking of this, he glanced at Weizu and stopped talking, and only said vaguely: "The story is very lively, like a detective movie, I will tell you when I have time!"

"I don't want to know so much, I just want to know how the matter ended...how did you send her away?" The muscles on both sides of the father's nose twitched slightly, and his voice trembled. "Last time I gave her five big things, saying it was a clean break, but she didn't keep her promise and brought a man to the door to make trouble. This time it was Lao Ding who did it, and it was five big things. So I thought about it and had to leave immediately No, otherwise she will never end. Hmph! She doesn't have the ability to come to Taiwan!" Grandma said with a disdainful sneer, her back straightened and her face raised.

"Mom, don't worry. If she is still in Peiping, she will definitely not come here. I read the newspaper this morning, and Peking has already partially negotiated peace." The father lowered his eyes in despair. "Look at your look, you seem to be blaming me. I think you should clear your mind! That is a real scumbag, and he has already followed others. You can't afford to miss her, let alone feel sorry for her. .” "I didn't, Mom." Just as he was talking, Lao Ding and Ding Ma came over panting. "Look, we were busy taking care of our luggage, so we didn't come to salute the young master." Mama Ding smiled with a flat face. "Lao Ding, Mama Ding, you have worked hard. I am not at home. Thanks to you for taking care of me." Father said with a polite smile. "Where's Old Liang?" He asked again. "It's on the shore! I asked him to help carry the box." Lao Ding said.The tone and style are like a general, very authoritative. "It's different for someone who has been an orderly with his grandfather. He looks more majestic than Lao Liang!" Weizu thought to himself. Just as he was talking, he saw Lao Liang running towards him sweating profusely.When he saw his father, he bowed: "Hello, young master! Everything is packed! Get in the car!" "How are you, Lao Liang? Okay, okay! Get in the car! If you have something to talk about at home," the father said. "We came here fleeing from disaster, so where is our home?" Grandma, who was always fast on her legs, said that she had already gone under the boat. Weizu followed behind his grandmother, thinking silently: "Who is the 'that woman' that my grandmother told my father just now? It seems to be referring to my mother! Didn't she tell me that my mother was dead and buried in the ground? No. Said that the things I remember are all dreams and lies, and tell me not to say it again? Why did she say it herself? Not only did she say it, but she was afraid that her mother would find it! So what is true and what is false What is sleep talk? What is not sleep talk? Alas, the hearts of grown-ups are so strange, so hard to understand!" Wei Zu had a lot of questions in his mind, but of course he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask them.He has always been obedient and worships his grandmother, he will not do things that his grandmother doesn't like, and he will not ask questions that his grandmother forbids to ask.He tried hard to imagine that what he knew, everything that happened in that big courtyard in Beiping was just a dream, not real.He forced himself to believe that it was a dream, a fake, and gradually he really believed it. In fact, he has no time to think about the true or false. The new world in front of him is beautiful and open, novel and real. Who is interested in thinking about those old days that were neither cute nor clear about the true and false. His father took him and his grandmother to their newly resettled home. "What kind of house is this? Straw mats all over the floor, paper sliding doors all over the house, like a stage set, and the yard is small. Look at the three-foot-long wooden bridge, so stingy that people don't know it." It's better to laugh or to be angry. This is not really living in the sparrow's nest." Grandma entered the new house and looked inside and out! , Said with thin lips. "Mom, Taipei can't be compared with Beiping, and now it can't be compared with before. It's not easy to find such a house. I looked at several places, and this house is the largest, with fifty-eight tatami mats, and a Japanese style. Our family can barely live there. Mom, if I start the factory and make money, I will build you a big house." Father approached grandma and said flatteringly. "Hey! I don't want you to build a big house either. I just hope that the war will end soon, and the trivial extortion will be gone. I'd better go back to Peiping." Grandma pondered for a while, looking at her father and then at him. Take a look, sighed vaguely, and said: "It's all because of your father and son's enemies, otherwise I would not leave Beiping without saying anything. Since I have come, I will not say anything. First, I will see you It's gone." "Mom, don't worry, you are getting more and more satisfied with your new life." Father raised his eyebrows confidently. On the third day in Taipei, Wei Zu entered the first grade of elementary school.Going to school is what he has been looking forward to for a long time.He was full of excitement and not afraid at all. At first, he and his classmates had some language barriers, but soon, they played hide-and-seek and kicked a ball, and invited him to play together. He is good at homework, obeys the rules, and can draw. He doesn't smudge his hands and face as often as other children.He seemed quite different. "This kid is smart, he's really a general." The teachers all said so. At school, sometimes you have to fill out a questionnaire, and when you fill in the column of "mother", he naturally writes the word "death".After filling it out, I went back and asked my grandmother, "Am I right? Grandma." "Of course you are right, your mother is dead!" "Grandma, what was my mother like when she was alive?" He asked tentatively once, wanting to confirm whether it was the same as his unclear memory whether it was a dream or real. "Your mother is a young lady from a rich family, and your grandfather is a historian of salt transportation. Your mother has studied in a foreign school, and she looks noble and decent, just like your Aunt Song..." Grandma said seriously. "Oh," his hanging heart immediately came to fruition. "It turned out that my mother was someone like Aunt Song. Then in his memory, there was a big black mole on his lip, his pale face was smeared with light rouge, he always wore an old cheongsam, and he couldn't say a few words." Who is the crying woman? Yes, it must be nothing but a dream." "Weizu, do you like Aunt Song?" "I like it." He said without hesitation.Who doesn't like Aunt Song?She was beautiful and spoke kindly, and every time she came, she gave him paper and pen colors for painting, and praised him for his artistic genius. "I like Aunt Song." He repeated with emphasis. "That's great! Weizu, Auntie Song is going to become your mother. You will have a mother's child from now on." The grandmother smiled and showed her newly inlaid gold teeth. "Oh, Aunt Song is going to become my mother!" He was so excited that his face became hot, and he thought: From now on, there is no need to fill in "death" in the column of "mother". Blow. Aunt Song looked better than usual that day when she became a bride. Her whole body was completely white, and the top of her head was covered with a veil.The gauze was long and held by two little girls.Father was wearing a tall top hat, a long coat with a long back and a short front, and a big red flower on his chest.Grandma was dressed in bright clothes, and the rings on her fingers were as bright as stars and as big as the eggs in the bird's nest in the corner of the yard.He was wearing a newly-made blue suit, a red collar flower, parted hair neatly, carrying a flower basket, and walked in front of his father and Aunt Song. He thought he must be very handsome.After returning home from the wedding, my grandmother sat in front of the portrait of my grandfather who had been lit and offered as an offering. My father and Aunt Song kowtowed to the portrait of my grandfather first, and then kowtowed to my grandmother.After the two adults finished kowtowing, the grandmother ordered him: "Weizu, kowtow to your father and stepmother. Call your mother, and don't call me Auntie Song anymore." He was willing to do it, but felt a little embarrassed. "Just bow three times. You don't need to kowtow." The new mother said with a very understanding smile. "No, you must knock. This is a family rule." The grandmother sat upright and said without negotiating. He knelt down obediently, kowtowed three times to his father and Aunt Song, and called out in a low voice: "Mom".These two words made him so excited that he almost shed tears. "Weizu is a good boy, mom will love you." The stepmother led him to her face and said kindly.While wearing a beautiful luminous watch on his wrist. "From now on, don't call me wife anymore, but old lady. The young master should be called Mr., and the new young mistress should be called Mrs. Now the family budget is completely decided by Mr. and Mrs. I don't care about anything else." Grandma called Lao Liang , Lao Ding, his wife and another new servant came before him and made a solemn announcement.Then he added: "You must keep in mind; don't forget, this is also our family rule." The stepmother really loved him. When it was cold, she would say: "Cuizu, put on a woolen vest." When it was hot, she would remind him: "Cuizu, don't stand under the sun." When it rained suddenly, she would Send someone to the school to give him a raincoat and umbrella.When other children described their families and their mothers, Wei Zu also pretended to be quite natural and said: "My mother always told me to walk carefully, for fear that I would be hit by a car." Or: "My mother has Promise to buy me something." Etc. When he said these words in a ostentatious tone, he was extremely satisfied.Originally, the only flaw in his life was the loss of his mother, but now he has a mother, and she is a beautiful and elegant lady who loves and cares for him very much. What else can he be dissatisfied with? In school, he is a good student who attracts everyone's attention.As he grew older, he realized more and more how much glory the surname inherited from his ancestors brought him; every time he arrived at a new school, the first day he would cause discord among teachers and students. Small shock. "Do you know? Liu Weizu, the newcomer to class XX, is the grandson of Liu Shichang, the former supervisor of XX province." The students spread the word among themselves.Some don't know who Liu Shichang is?When I went back to ask my parents, my attitude changed a little the next day, and I looked up to him a little bit.Not only the classmates looked up to him, but the teachers also looked up to him.If the other child did something wrong, the teacher would severely reprimand him. If he did something wrong, he would only kindly persuade him to correct it.In short, before he understands how history progresses?How is society evolving?When you look at the relationship between people, you can clearly see how superior your position is.He is proud of this, and because of this, he moderately restrains himself, and he refuses to be naughty or talk presumptuously like ordinary classmates, and loses the demeanor of a famous son. Because he is too stable, too cautious in words and deeds, he looks like a little adult, not as lively as other children, so there are not many friends who can often play with him.But this doesn't affect him. He works hard, does his homework well, and is polite to others. His teachers and classmates all respect him. Only once, in his second year of junior high school, a classmate nicknamed "Da Pao" started talking to him about a trivial matter, and pointed at him and said, "What's so good about it? What happened to grandfather. In fact, your grandfather was only from the green forest, and I don’t think your family’s gold and silver treasures were obtained in a fair manner.” This sentence made him tremble with anger. If it wasn't for the other classmates blocking him, he would have jumped on him at all costs and tore that classmate into pieces.In front of everyone, he was insulted like this, and the object of the insult was his grandfather who was regarded as a god, it really made him feel so painful that his heart would bleed.When I came home from school that day, my grandmother saw him looking downcast, so she asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong?" "Grandma, is my grandfather from the Green Forest?" He asked bravely. "Who said that?" Grandma immediately stopped smiling. "It's a classmate named Da Pao..." He explained the matter in detail. "This cannon is really nonsense. You should tell him that when your grandfather was young, it was a messy and lawless time. At that time, any ambitious young man who was willing to stay at home honestly would It’s to go out at the risk of going out, to be a chivalrous hero, your grandpa was born as a chivalrous man—” Grandma smiled when she said this. "Yes, that's it, your grandfather was a knight-errant." His grandmother's explanation brightened his mood again.He believed that a person as extraordinary as his grandfather must have been an ambassador.Later, he also told people the same thing, and he said it in more detail than what his grandmother told him, adding many vivid, exciting, thrilling plots from movies and martial arts novels. He has always envied others to have brothers and sisters, and often thought: How wonderful it would be to have a brother or sister?This wish came true in the second year when the stepmother moved in. His younger sister Mina was born, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep well all night. "Hey! This little guy, she's going to call me brother! What an air!" When he first saw the screaming baby lying in the cradle, he couldn't help but exclaim loudly.Then the second sister Hui Na was born again.When Hui Na was two years old, her stepmother was admitted to the hospital and had her uterus removed.The reason is that doctors found a softball-sized tumor in it. After his stepmother underwent surgery, he really felt that his status in the family had improved again.Grandmothers, fathers, and even stepmothers, consciously or not, emphasized his importance in the family. Once, the stepmother helped the grandmother pack the boxes and took out two emerald ruyi handles, some gold candlesticks, gold jewelry boxes inlaid with precious stones and other precious antiques.While stroking those things one by one, the grandmother said to the stepmother: "I mean, in the future, all these big treasures will be given to Weizu. Boy, heir to the family! The talent given to him will always be in the hands of the Liu family. If it is given to Mina and Huina, don't they all be taken to other people's homes Did you go?" "Mom is right. All the family heirlooms should be given to Wei Zu. He is the only boy in the Liu family and he will inherit the family business in the future." The stepmother smiled at him who was sitting beside him. "Did you hear that? Zuzu. Your father always said that he wants you to inherit his career in the future! Work hard! You are the hope of the Liu family." "Yes, Weizu, the family's hope lies in you. You must always work hard and be obedient, and be a good son to your parents and a good grandson to your grandma. Only then can we have hope. In the future, the family will depend on you to support it. Do you understand?" Grandma asked. "I understand." He nodded solemnly, feeling that he was really an important person with great responsibilities. Their days became more and more prosperous. What my father started was a factory with only a few old spinning machines. In less than ten years, it has expanded into a large-scale textile factory with all new equipment.Their home moved from the Japanese-style house with more than 50 tatami mats to a spacious villa designed by a professional. Father was already a well-known figure in society—his name did not come from his grandfather, but because he played a pivotal role in the industrial world. He respects and adores his father.Throughout his formative years, the figure of his father had been the model for him to imitate.He felt that he had never seen anyone as noble, capable, and well-equipped as his father. A father is not only successful in his career, but also a good son, husband, and father in the family.He is not only a good golfer, but also a master of bridge and dancing. Once there was a dance party at home, and his father and stepmother performed tango. In short, he adored his father with all his heart.His father also valued him and doted on him. If he had any hopes and demands, his father would never let him down. The younger sisters Mina and Huina are two extremely beautiful and lovely little girls.He was the person whom the two little girls loved and admired the most.All day long, my elder brother is long and my elder brother is short, as if everything about my elder brother is the best, and my elder brother is more important than my father, mother, and grandmother. He loves his family and the family loves him too.He is proud of his family.When he fills out something like a sign-up questionnaire, he always writes with pride: Grandfather, Liu Shichang.Occupation: Supervisor of ×× Province, deceased. Grandmother, Liu Zhang.Mrs. Superintendent is alive and well. Father, Liu Jixian.Education: Graduated from Shanghai ×× University.Researcher at XX University in the United States.Occupation: Chairman of XX Textile Factory, Chairman of XX Garment Factory, Director of XX Chemical Fiber Factory... Mother: Song Wei.Education: Graduated from ×× University in the United States.Occupation: Home management. Sisters: Liu Meina, Liu Huina.elementary school reading. Such a family background, such family members, can be regarded as perfect and complete compared to anyone else, there is nothing missing! In this way, he grew up day by day in happiness, in the love of his family, the attention of his teachers and the envy of his classmates.At the age of eighteen, he graduated from high school and applied for university.According to his own wish, he wants to apply for the art department and work hard on painting, which he has been obsessed with since childhood.But his father repeatedly persuaded him to apply for business administration or economics in order to inherit his career in the future.Manage sole proprietorship textile factories and joint venture chemical factories, garment factories and other planned enterprises. "Weizu, you are my only son, and the future of the Liu family depends on you. Your two younger sisters will always get married when they grow up. I will give them a large dowry, and they have no share in the business I run. The factory I inherited the capital from your grandfather. I inherit your grandfather and you inherit me. The owner of our business must always belong to Liu. That is to say: the future is all yours. You can’t rely on outsiders for your business. You don’t understand Absolutely not. You are good at your homework and you can learn anything, why don't you learn practical things!" My father has always spoken kindly and calmly, and he has never seen him speak harshly, whether to his family or outsiders.But every word he uttered carries weight, making obedient people feel unable to refute or disagree.Especially the sincere attitude when he spoke, anyone would be a little moved.Weizu admired his father's strength the most, and felt that only a man like his father was worthy of being called a true gentleman. After listening to his father's suggestion, he remained silent, unable to answer for a long time.It is his responsibility to inherit the family business and continue to carry forward the glory left by his ancestors. He understands this very well, but it is so difficult and a pity to give up the painting that he loves so much! What a shrewd man his father was, he could see through his mind at a glance. "I know you like art, and you are talented in painting. You are not interested in managing factories, studying business administration, or studying economics." Father smiled, lit a cigar and smoked slowly. "You know what I'm interested in? I'm most interested in golf, and if I play all day I won't get tired of it. But I can't play all day after all, can I? Why can't I? Because I have to manage my business. If the career is good, the life of the family will be good, and the reputation of the Liu family will not decline. Weizu, you have to understand one thing: it is very honorable to be born as a descendant of the Liu family, and it is not easy. You, I , in the future, your descendants will all have the responsibility to carry it forward, even if you don’t carry it forward, at least you have to maintain it. To maintain the good reputation your grandfather left us, we also have to manage our property well.” "Dad, I understand what you mean." "It's good to know. Weizu, you want to learn painting, yes, you can learn it after school. After you pass the exam, you can find a teacher and learn it once or twice a week. Ask your mother how much you want." Father repeatedly He patted him on the shoulder twice. "Okay, Dad." He smiled happily when he heard that he could also learn painting at the same time. He was successfully admitted to the Department of Economics of × University, which naturally became a great joy in the family.The gift from his father was a bank deposit and the right to drive the family car at will. "Wei Zu, you have made Dad very satisfied. You must make Dad more satisfied. In the future, you will go abroad for further study and come back with a doctorate degree. How much will Dad pay you? You can do it. I believe in your ability." Father Looking at him with a smile, there are encouragement, praise, and infinite love in his eyes. "Don't just know that Dr. Wei Zunian is called Dr. Wei Zunian. He is a picky man who carries on the family line. He will have to get married at that time! Wei Zu, when you really get a doctorate, let grandma hold a great-grandson in her arms. That grandma I'm really satisfied." Grandma said with open eyebrows, as if she was already satisfied now. "Mom, what are you worried about? For a talent like Weizu, is it still a problem to find a partner? I think he's going to college, but I don't know how many girls want to chase him!" The stepmother also said jokingly. "Oh, my mother always makes fun of me!" He blushed. "Your mother isn't making fun of you, she's telling the truth. But, Wei Zu, you have to be careful. You can't be careless in making friends and choosing a partner. People nowadays talk about freedom in love, and of course you are free too. Freedom It's freedom, for a family like ours, even if you don't have a good family, at least you have to be a young lady who is educated and polite, otherwise we can't have it." Grandma said seriously. "Where did grandma go! I'm only eighteen years old, and it's too early to talk about this issue!" "It's more important to read the book first." The father was obviously not interested in this topic, he turned around and left after saying the last sentence lightly. "You all like brother, I'm going to be angry." His elder sister Mina pouted her red lips coquettishly. "If you dare to get angry, brother will tickle you when you are angry." He snorted Meina twice, and Meina laughed and hid in the room. "Don't run away, brother likes you." He sat on the sofa and held Mina in his arms.At this time, the younger sister Hye Na leaned on her grandmother's lap.Already ran over with three feet and two steps. "Brother carry me." Hui Na climbed his back, wrapped her hands around his neck, and leaned her little head comfortably on him. "Brother, do you like me?" "I like you, little Huina." He freed up a hand to pat her gently.My heart was filled with warmth, and I felt that I was really the happiest person in the world.In fact, if he was asked to find someone who was happier than himself, he really couldn't find one.He admits from the bottom of his heart: everything he owns and belongs to is the best in the world and impeccable.And the future?The future is more like a glorious sky, waiting for him to soar, let him climb the stars and pick the moon.There is only sunshine and light in his vision, not a trace of gloom and darkness. The life of college students is rich and colorful. Every weekend and holiday, there are many activities among classmates: outings, mountain climbing, barbecues, dancing, organizing choirs, and organizing drama clubs or flat drama clubs.He will also occasionally follow up to get a kick, but he is not a very good type.For him, studying is still the first priority.Painting can never be neglected.There are also his father's expectations of him, and the pressure imposed on him by the Liu family's prominent reputation, all of which made him know how to restrain himself in everything and know how to restrain himself.Therefore, among his classmates, he always gave people the impression of being calm, educated, reserved and not dull. With this style, coupled with his chic appearance, and all other objective good conditions, he is undoubtedly the object of girls' love. He naturally accepted the friendship of female classmates, went out with them, watched movies, asked them to be dance partners, and sometimes talked about art, literature, and ideas together.He respects them, likes them, treats them as friends, not as lovers.His style of behavior hurt the hearts of several female classmates, and also caused some objections that made him sound uncomfortable. "Liu Weizu is a son of a wealthy family with high vision. These people are not in his eyes." "Liu Weizu looks gentle and honest, but he is actually quite cold and has no real feelings for anyone." "Liu Weizu is a standard son, with a strong sense of superiority. He probably thinks he is superior to others!" Such comments made him very unconvinced, and he asked himself: He never thought he looked down on others or thought he was superior to others.He also doesn't think that love is a transaction of reciprocating love. Although several female classmates showed how much they fell in love with him, he didn't necessarily have to repay their love in order to thank them for their kindness.In his concept: Love does not gradually evolve from making friends, getting acquainted, and getting to know each other like most people are used to.It is a fusion and devotion that is close to divinity and sacrificing, which is incomparable with any emotion.None of the girls he had ever known could arouse such feelings in him, and he neither wanted nor felt it necessary to deliberately create love—wouldn't that mean to himself, to the girl, and to him? An insult to holy and pure love? Therefore, no matter what others say, he always maintains a gentleman's demeanor as much as possible, does not hurt others, does not criticize others, and does not feel proud or brag in front of others because someone of the opposite sex falls in love with him.The more he does this, the more attractive he is to women, the more he arouses a sense of inscrutable mystery. "I don't know what kind of girl can impress his heart!" This is how most of the students feel about him.It wasn't until the news that he was in love with a clerk who was two or three years older than him and worked in a bank reached the school, that changed everyone's opinion of him, replaced by amazement, regret, sarcasm and amazement. He didn't intend to love her, but he fell in love with her so much that he loved her so hard that he forgot himself, his home, and the whole world.In his eyes, in his heart, in his mind, there was nothing else but her.If it is said that people's feelings can be fully invested without the slightest reservation, he believes that he has already invested his whole self in it.As a result, what did he get?It was a ruthless abandonment and a shameful deception.This lesson changed his innocent view of love, and sharpened his eyes to see that women are not as innocent and lovely as their appearance.Most of them are cunning and artificial.Since then, his heart has been brought into the old orbit that will not be easily shaken, and it is more fixed and stable than before, refusing to accept any invasion of brilliant colors. He turned the pain into his heart and lungs into strength, and devoted himself to his studies and painting, which he has always loved.After receiving this blow, he realized more clearly: In the whole world, only the love between father and son is true and pure, without a trace of hypocrisy.He is determined to be a good son, a good descendant, for the ancestors surnamed Liu, for the father he has always admired, and for the beloved grandmother, to stir up the family business, strive for great glory, and open up a better future. When I graduated from university, my grandmother tentatively said: "Weizu, you've graduated from college, so it's time to get married, right? Are there any female classmates you like?" Grandma said very carefully, and his family members are considerate of his trauma, and they usually don't say much about it. of. “奶奶，你别急，将来我会让你老人家抱曾孙子。而且也不用非我中意不可，奶奶替我看，奶奶中意的我就中意了。可是现在还不能考虑结婚的事，我还得到外国念博士去呢！”他强做着笑容，顺着祖母的话说。 “留学回来得几年啊？”祖母不太以为然的。 “妈，慰祖还年轻，不必忙着先成家，还是把书念出来再说吧！”父亲委婉的表示他的意见。 “妈，慰祖到了德国一定会遇到合意的小姐。”继母说。 “我可不喜欢娶个洋媳妇，话讲不通，再生上一群混血孩子。” “奶奶放心，我不会做让你老人家不喜欢的事。”他本来正在直着眼睛发愣，听到祖母的话，便随口应着。 “那就好，慰祖从来就是个听话的孩子，只有被那个姓庄的女人引诱那一阵子，才像变了个人似的——” “奶奶，别再提了，以后绝不会再有那样的事。我现在就想好好念点书，别的事都没功夫想。” “慰祖是对的，男儿志在四方。”父亲鼓励的说。 “我不会让大家失望。”他又给了一句保证。同时计划着：先念个学位出来，光宗耀祖，再结婚生子，给刘家延续后代，让祖母抱曾孙，然后便慢慢的接过父亲的事业，做个有身分有地位的实业家。做父亲的好儿子，祖母的好孙子，刘家的撑门之柱。 他到海德堡留学，便是抱着这种心情来的，而且有百分之百的诚意要真去做，也有百分之百的信心能做好。他一点也不曾想到，连这个荒唐的梦也被惊破，破得那么丑恶，惨不忍睹……
