Lin Jianguo lived for sixty years and became the "tool man" of his family.
To buy a house for his eldest son, he drained his pension and borrowed money from relatives and friends; to raise his two grandsons, he survived from the prime of life to his sixties, gave up his job, abandoned his hobbies, endured his wife's complaints and his daughter-in-law's looks, and clung to the belief that "everything will be prosperous when the family is in harmony".
He always thought that when he couldn't do anything anymore, he would always say something sincere.
But he was so sick that he fell ill in bed, and the only one who brought him water and food was his youngest daughter. Through the crack in the door, he heard clearly that his wife and his eldest son's family were dividing his remaining pension money, and they even competed for the old clothes he wore during his lifetime.
The turbid tears falling on the pillow were his final farewell to his sixty years of "silly sacrifice".
When I opened my eyes again, the kitchen was filled with the aroma of porridge, and the fried dough sticks just out of the pan were still steaming.
His wife's voice penetrated the door, with a natural urgency: "Jianguo, the eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant with her second child. Hurry up to the city next week to take care of the baby. The houses and vegetable fields in the city have been sorted for you!"
In his previous life, he packed his luggage all night without even saying an excuse.
This time, Lin Jianguo's hand holding the porridge bowl was steady without trembling. He blew the porridge to cool down the hot porridge. He looked up at the door and said in a calm but unprecedented tone: "I won't go."
Without waiting for his family's reaction, he added loudly and loudly, breaking the family's inertia: "Not only will I not go, but this family will be divided today."
In his previous life, he was someone else's grandfather, father, and husband, except Lin Jianguo.
After rebirth, he will tear up the label of "old scalper", cut off the bottomless demands, and guard the border with a hard-core attitude.
