Chapter 1036 Extra: Three Types of Unfilial Piety
Cuican Entertainment Company is developing very fast. In just a few years, it has become the leader of China's entertainment industry, surpassing both Tianmei Entertainment Company and Guangmei Entertainment Company.
Now that it has developed to such a large scale, there are naturally many kinds of things.
The workload of one department under Bright Entertainment Company is comparable to that of a medium-sized entertainment company.
The program department is also one of the important departments of Bright Entertainment Company and has to deal with a lot of work every day. There are variety shows filmed in cooperation with other entertainment companies and TV stations, and there are also variety shows filmed and filmed by Cuican Entertainment Company alone.
Xu Nuo serves as the deputy director of the program department of Bright Entertainment Company. There are so many things to deal with every day, and now that I suddenly have to take leave for a few days, the work piled up in the department can only be handed over to other colleagues. Xu Nuo is also deeply sorry for this. Fortunately, he is usually quite sociable and has a good relationship with everyone, otherwise he would be really in trouble.
Of course, everyone knows about his relationship with Tan Yue. If he insists on asking for leave, no one will stop him. But as the deputy director of the program department of Bright Entertainment Company and Tan Yue's good brother, he couldn't do that kind of thing.
He took the elevator to the parking lot on the first floor of the Bright Entertainment Company, got into the car, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out and lit it.
He smoked like this for a while, until the cigarette burned out, he flicked the cigarette butt out of his hand, started the car and drove out of the underground parking lot. He did not return to the community, but returned directly from the company to Jishui, Hedong. hometown.
He didn't turn on the navigation. He was so familiar with the route from Jishui to Beijing that he could just drive to his home.
Just thinking about the situation waiting for him at home, he couldn't help but feel depressed. He took a deep breath and let it out for a long time.
He didn't drive very fast. He didn't know whether it was because he didn't want to go home so quickly, or because he had too many things on his mind and was a little distracted, fearing that something might happen if he drove too fast.
…
…
Eight or nine hours later, Xu Nuo drove down from the Jishui Expressway Toll Station. By this time, it was already dark, around one o'clock in the morning.
Ding ding ding.
The mobile phone placed in the central control position suddenly rang. Xu Nuo slowed down the car, picked up the mobile phone and took a look. It was a call from his mother.
Press the answer button, the phone is connected to the car's Bluetooth, and the mother's voice comes from the stereo.
"Son, where have you been? Are you almost to Jishui? Drive slowly on the road, don't be anxious, it's dark. Remember to turn on the headlights. Your dad and I are waiting for you at home. Is there anything you want to eat? ?”
As soon as he answered the phone, Xunuo heard a series of greetings from his mother. Although he was very dissatisfied with his mother who always pushed him to go on blind dates, get married, and have children, now he could not help but feel warm when he heard his mother's concern.
"Mom, I'm not hungry. I ate something in the service area. I'm not sleepy either. You and my dad can rest early. I've arrived in Jishui now and just got off the highway. I'll be home in about forty minutes. No, you don’t have to wait for me, go to bed early.”
"We have arrived in Jishui. Your dad and I are not sleepy. We are waiting for you at home. You drive slowly on the road. Don't be anxious. Okay, that's it. I won't disturb you anymore. I'll hang up."
Xu's mother was worried about disturbing her son's driving, so she didn't continue talking and quickly hung up the phone.
Although it was past one o'clock in the morning and the wind was howling outside the car window, Xu Nuo did not feel cold, but felt warm in her heart.
Although he didn't want to take leave and go home, he was still very happy when he was about to arrive at the door of his house. After all, he now works in the capital and cannot go home several times throughout the year. Basically, he can only spend time with his parents at home during the Spring Festival.
In the early morning, there were fewer vehicles on the road. Xu Nuo stepped on the accelerator and increased the speed. He arrived home earlier than he expected. It only took more than half an hour to arrive in front of his house.
Parking the car downstairs in the community, Xu Nuo looked up through the car window and saw the lights on the floor where his home was located.
Although he had just told his mother not to wait for him and let them rest first, it seemed that they still insisted on waiting for him to come back.
Get out of the car, close the door, walk into the corridor, and walk home.
I came home in a hurry this time and didn't bring any gifts.
But this time is different from the Chinese New Year. During the Chinese New Year, cousins, nephews, and nieces from relatives come to visit relatives. At that time, they have to buy some gifts or specialties from the capital to give away.
But when he came back this time, there was no one else at home, only his parents, and he was so angry before he came that he couldn't even bother to buy gifts.
Xu Nuo's home was on the ninth floor, and the speed of the elevator was okay. He went from the first floor to the ninth floor in a dozen seconds.
The elevator door had just opened, and Xu Nuo took out a bunch of keys from his pocket. On them were the keys to the house he rented in Beijing and the keys to his hometown.
But before he could find the key to open the door, the door was pushed open from the inside.
"Son, you're back, come on, come on in."
Xu's mother took two steps forward, grabbed Xu Nuo's arm and pulled her into the house. She looked back and saw Xu's father standing at the door. She glared, "Why are you standing there stupidly? Why don't you go and heat up the food? The door is blocked, how can I let my son in? It’s so cold outside!”
After speaking, Xu's mother pushed Xu's father and urged him to heat up the food.
"Mom, don't heat it up. I'm not hungry now. I ate some food at the service area. Don't bother. Just eat something and I'll sleep for a while."
Xu Nuo said quickly.
"What good food can you get outside? Especially at the service area. I read the news online and it said that the food sold at the service area is expensive and unpalatable. Don't eat at the service area in the future. I cooked several dishes for you at home, including your favorite stir-fried beef. Eat something first, something hot to warm your body. After dinner, go to sleep first. We'll talk about other things tomorrow."
Xu Nuo smiled gently after hearing what his mother said.
Although he and his mother often ended up in a bad mood on the phone before, he couldn't help but be cordial when they really met. After all, blood is thicker than water, and his mother always urges him. Blind date, marriage, and having children, in the end, it's all for him.
Xu Nuo had discussed with his mother before that if he couldn't find a girlfriend, he would just not look for one. No marriage and no children.
Nowadays, the idea of not getting married and not having children is very popular on the Internet, but it doesn't work in Hedong Province. Xu Nuo still remembers that the last time he said this to his mother, she gave him a slap in the face, and his eyes were full of stars.
When he walked into the house, his mother brought him a bowl of egg tea and asked him to drink it quickly to drive away the cold air.
In fact, it is spring now, and it is not very cold, but the temperature at night is lower than that during the day.
The egg tea in the bowl is moderate in temperature. Xu Nuo drove all night and almost drank no water. Now he is a little thirsty.
He held the big bowl with both hands and gulped down a big mouthful, almost drinking the big bowl of egg tea.
"Okay, okay, don't drink too much. If you drink too much, there will be no room in your stomach in a while. You have to eat some vegetables to fill your stomach. I said that eating in the service area is not allowed."
Xu's mother took the bowl from Xu Nuo and said to Xu Nuo.
At this time, his father had already prepared all the dishes.
There were four dishes in total, including meat, vegetables, and side dishes.
Xu Nuo sat on the sofa and started to eat. He was not very hungry at first, but seeing these home-cooked dishes made by his parents, his appetite was opened. He picked up the chopsticks and steamed buns and started to eat with big mouthfuls.
These four dishes were all his favorites, including fried beef, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, hot and sour potato shreds, and a plate of pickled vegetables mixed with peanuts.
His parents did not speak, but just sat beside him, watching Xu Nuo eat with a smile.
Sometimes people are so easy to satisfy, and watching family members eat with big mouthfuls is the happiest thing.
After eating, Xu Nuo patted his belly, which was round and round. He had not eaten so much for a long time.
"Okay, Mom and Dad, I'm done. You should all go to bed early. It's more than two o'clock in the morning. If there is anything, we can talk about it in the morning. I will go back to my room to sleep."
After Xu Nuo finished speaking, he stood up and went back to his room.
At this time, his mother stopped him, "Son, wait a minute, don't leave in a hurry. You just had a meal and your stomach is still full of food. It's not good for your health to sleep now. Talk to us for a while, digest it and then go to bed. We haven't seen each other for such a long time, let's chat."
Since his mother had said so, Xu Nuo had no choice but to nod and agree.
Sitting back on the sofa, holding the phone in his hand and spinning it non-stop, he even had a premonition of what his mother was going to talk about? Or what it was about.
"Son, I asked you to take leave and come home this time, not for anything else, but for your lifelong event. Your father and I only have you as our son, and your father is the only child of your old Xu family. You can be said to be the only son in three generations.
If you don't get married or have children, it's not just your problem. It involves the inheritance of the entire old Xu family. The old Xu family will be cut off from now on. So this time when you come home, you must solve the marriage issue for me."
Most of the time, my mother is a good mother. In Xu Nuo's eyes, she really has no shortcomings.
But every time he mentioned blind dates and finding a girlfriend, Xu Nuo would be particularly disgusted. He even quarreled with his mother more than once. His father didn't dare to offend either side, so he could only say good things in the middle, and the warm atmosphere of the family would disappear.
After listening to what Xu's mother said, Xu's father quietly looked at his son's reaction. Sure enough, his son had frowned at this moment. He couldn't help but sigh heavily in his heart. He thought he could live a more stable night tonight, but now it seems that he might make a fuss again.
Hearing his mother urging him to go on a blind date again, get married and have children as soon as possible, and accusing him of the three unfilial crimes of not having descendants, Xu Nuo felt extremely upset.
It's just that he is grateful for what he has done, and he is also soft-hearted. He just ate the food made by others, and now the plate is not cold, so he turned his face and didn't recognize him. It's really not easy to do.
Xu Nuo's lips trembled slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to fight back, because he had quarreled too much with his mother during this period. When he was on the phone, every time he heard his mother urging him to go on a blind date and talking about some of his shortcomings, Xu Nuo would fight back directly. Now he heard his mother urging him to go on a blind date and get married again, and he almost couldn't hold back.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability and depression in his heart, and tried to make his voice sound calm.
"Mom, I didn't come back this time to quarrel with you. If I really wanted to quarrel with you, I wouldn't have asked for leave. The company is very busy now. I dropped so many things and rushed home from the capital just to solve the problem. question.
You always say that I am relatively negative in relationships, or that I can't find a girlfriend in the capital, so you have to make arrangements for me at home. Well, I'm coming back this time to confirm this matter. I'm willing to listen to your arrangements. As long as a girl can fall in love with me, I agree. I can get engaged or get married anytime. "
Xu Nuo sounded a bit self-defeating, but this was indeed what he was thinking now. He was too tired, under great psychological pressure, mentally exhausted, and his love life was more stressful than work, and he couldn't breathe.
At this point, Xu Nuo paused, looked up at his father, and then turned his gaze to his mother, "Mom, if there is anything we can solve tomorrow, I will also go see any girl you arrange for me to go on a blind date, but It’s really late now. I feel dizzy after driving for such a long time. I want to rest early. You and my dad are getting older. You have been waiting for me until now, so you should rest early for the sake of our health.”
Xu's mother frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "It's the best idea you have. Your dad and I are very happy. It's just that I've been thinking about some things for too long, and now I suddenly see you can't help but think about them." Let’s talk about it. If you’re not sleepy, we can talk again. Eating so much and going to bed early is not good for your stomach—”
Before Xu's mother finished speaking, she was interrupted by Xu's father next to her, "Okay, okay, stop talking. I also feel a little sleepy. Our son just came back and drove for such a long time." Let him have a good rest. Even if he doesn’t sleep yet, he can just lie down on the bed and play with his mobile phone for a while. We’ll talk about it tomorrow, okay.”
After Xu's father finished speaking, he waved his hand to Xunuo and told him to go back to the room quickly to avoid being muttered by his mother.
"Okay, Mom and Dad, I'm going back to my room to rest first. You should also go back and rest early. Don't stay up too late."
After saying the promise, he quickly stood up from the sofa and trotted back to his room. He didn't dare to stay in the living room for a moment longer for fear of getting calluses in his ears.
Seeing this, Xu's mother had no choice but to glare at her husband next to her, looked at her son's running back and said, "Have a good night's rest, there are four girls to meet tomorrow."
Hearing this, Xu Nuo staggered and almost fell down.
