Listening is the transmission of love

Almost every time on the plane back to China, I meet such uncles. They are alone and only speak simple and poor English. They
have no luggage . Talking about God , what did you study? How many years have you been there? My son studied engineering last year and just got a good job after graduating from graduate school. His grades are so good that he never bothered me. He just doesn't pay attention to his life. I didn't eat well ... At first , I always answered politely and perfunctorily with a few words about his son. Maybe it was because of my personality that I was not used to chatting with strangers. Later, I even tried to find one. Put on the earphones and start watching the uncle or filming and I continue to talk . I am really impatient at the moment. When I saw Grandpa Robert set foot to visit his children, he had no scruples to "harass" his peers. The passenger said that his precious son and daughter 's pride and affection are beyond words . I feel very lucky for Grandpa Robert. I met two good passers-by . I was touched by their understanding and patience , and I was very ashamed of myself. Most of the children who are not in the country are their wives who can’t speak a word of English and have to fly alone for more than ten hours to see if their children are doing well. They feel both fresh and lonely in a strange city. Maybe their sons and daughters don’t have time to accompany them. with the old father, maybe they speak English on the phone and are busy at work




























Maybe if I turn on the TV, I can't find a shadow of a Chinese person. Even if there is, I can't understand Cantonese,
but they don't feel disappointed because it's enough to see that my children are all right.

Maybe my father will be like this in the future.
Video of that day He asked seriously, "
Daughter , do you think I can handle the basic conversations that I take with you to learn new concepts?
At that time, I thought my father was so cute , and then I felt
sad for a while, and my father, who was not good at pinyin, even gnawed on it. The English textbook is just to come and see if he
will also pull the passengers next to him. He is proud to talk about whether I
will also tell me that it's okay, you can do your job, and I can go shopping on the street by myself.
When a naive little boy like me put on his earphones and turned his head impatiently.

Later, the uncle found the only Chinese movie on the plane. It
seemed to be a passionate youth movie about basketball.
He fell asleep before it was halfway
through. Maybe in Dreams are all memories of when my son is by my side.

Next time, I will listen carefully to every old father telling all kinds of things about his children,
because that is the respect for love and the transmission of love.
