Deep Mother and Son Relationship

  Remember in one second

  Wu Yu trudged home with heavy footsteps after a day of work at KFC. Shortly after he entered the house, his younger brother Wu Sheng also returned. Li Chunhua saw that both brothers were back and called out to everyone to wash their hands and eat dinner.

  Sitting at the dinner table, Wu Yu said cautiously while eating: "Mom, I have something to discuss with you."

  "Whatever it is, just say it, as long as it's not a bad thing, Mom will support you." Li Chunhua said kindly while eating. This mother who single-handedly supported her family of four worked very hard, but she remained optimistic. Seeing her children growing up made her feel happy and fulfilled.

  "It's like this, there is a Portuguese scout who wants me to go to Portugal for a trial." Wu Yu said slowly.

  "Portugal? Really? Are you kidding me?" Li Chunhua looked at her son, expressing skepticism about his words.

  "It's true! Gao Wei also received his invitation, and we have all verified his identity"

  Wu Yu saw that Li Chunhua didn't quite believe him, so he immediately explained.

  "Is it Porto or Benfica?" asked Wu Sheng in a slightly hoarse voice that was just developing.

  "Uh, no, it's Marítimo, although not very famous, but also a Super League team in Portugal." Wu Yu said awkwardly.

  "As long as you like it, Mom will support you." Li Chunhua said with a smile.

  "But the round-trip ticket to Portugal has to be paid by ourselves." Wu Yu looked at Li Chunhua with a difficult expression and immediately added: "However, as long as I successfully pass the trial training and sign the contract, I can reimburse the ticket."

  Li Chunhua listened and her smile on her face hesitated for a moment, but she didn't oppose Wu Yu's idea. Instead, she continued to ask: "How much would it cost?"

  "Hmph! Our family is already struggling, and you're thinking of going abroad? It's unrealistic, and don't you see what kind of person you are?" Just as Li Chunhua finished speaking, Grandfather Wu Jinhua's icy voice rang out.

  "What's unrealistic!? Is it wrong for me to pursue my own dreams? Should I be like you, lamenting the injustice of fate every day?! I have hands and feet, why can't I pursue everything I want?!" Wu Yu heard his grandfather ruthlessly insult his dreams and fiercely retorted back at him.

  "Xiao Yu! You can't talk to Grandpa like that, don't say anything else, let's eat first!" Li Chunhua saw the two grandfather and grandson arguing again, so she interrupted the topic, everything will be discussed after dinner.

  Wu Yu was scolded by Li Chunhua and didn't speak again, only silently eating his meal. For a while, the atmosphere in the room was quite awkward, with no one speaking, leaving only the sound of the TV.

  Here is the translation:

  "Below is a piece of local football news. Guangzhou Evergrande's young players Wen Yongkang and Shi Bojun will go to Europe on July 20th for trials with Manchester United and Real Madrid respectively. The top management of Guangzhou Evergrande stated that the expenses for this trip will be borne by the club, and the club will fully support the two players in their European adventure."

  "Brother, who are they? So amazing! They can actually go to Manchester United and Real Madrid for trials!" 14-year-old Wu Sheng asked while watching TV.

  "They are two cores of Evergrande Youth Team and our old opponents." Wu Yu said with a little envy while watching TV.

  "Look at others, this is what's amazing, they can go to Europe without spending their own money. Look at you..." Wu Jinhua said coldly while watching TV.

  "If it wasn't for you secretly drugging me, I would be late? If it wasn't for you, I would be the one going to Manchester United now."

  Wu Yu glared fiercely at Wu Jinhua and said:

  "What's the point of you going to kick a ball? Can kicking a ball support this family? You don't even look at the situation in this house, and yet you're still thinking about kicking a ball. Not showing any consideration for your mom at all! If you have the ability, don't ask your mom for money, go earn it yourself in Portugal!" Wu Jinhua retorted without giving an inch.

  "Am I a burden to this family? Since high school, when have I ever asked mom for tuition or living expenses? If it weren't for you needing to see doctors and take medicine every day, would we be living so poorly?" Wu Yu's eyes were wide with anger as he glared at Wu Jinhua.

  "Xiao Yu, don't say that anymore!" Li Chunhua rebuked loudly as she saw Wu Yu's words becoming more and more absurd.

  The dinner ended in an unpleasant atmosphere.

  ……

  In a garden-style residential area in Haizhu District, Wang Peijun and her family of three were having dinner in the dining room. Wang Peijun was the only child in the family, and her parents loved her very much. She had never disappointed them, and since elementary school, she had always been an excellent student, especially in English, which she spoke fluently.

  "Dad, why doesn't the club cover their expenses for going to trial training?"

  "It's not that the club doesn't want to take responsibility for their trial training expenses, but rather that the club didn't originally have this expense in its budget," replied a handsome middle-aged man sitting at the dinner table, who was none other than Wang Jingcun, the vice-manager of Fuli Club. He paused for a moment before continuing, "The club also won't really let them pay for these expenses themselves. If they pass the trial, Maridimo will reimburse them; if they fail, the club will reimburse their round-trip airfare and other expenses."

  "Mom, look at Dad, he's so stingy, even with this little money, he has to be so calculating." Wang Peijun said with a pout, looking at the beautiful woman opposite him.

  "Come on, the club isn't your father's, he's just following the rules." Wang Peijun's mother said with a smile.

  Wang Peijun heard this and didn't say another word, just lowering her head to eat, looking very sulky.

  Wang Jingcun saw the situation and thought that his daughter was unhappy, so he said: "What gift do you want? I'll ask Uncle Li to bring it back from Portugal for you."

  Wang Peijun heard this and continued eating with her head down, as if she hadn't heard Wang Jingcun's words.

  。

  Wang Jingcun knew that this condition was not attractive to his daughter, so he continued: "Then what do you want? As long as Dad can do it, I'll agree to anything."

  "Really?" As soon as she heard this sentence, Wang Peijun immediately looked up and asked.

  "Honestly, when has your father ever deceived you?" Wang Jingcun patted his chest and said with certainty.

  Upon hearing this, Wang Peijun's face revealed a sly smile, where was the sulky look from just now? She turned her eyes and said: "Dad, I don't want gifts, I want to go to Portugal with Uncle Li!"

  "King King, you've been to Portugal before, they're going for a trial, not for fun." Wang Jingchu couldn't think that his daughter actually wanted to go to Portugal, so he dissuaded her.

  "No way, I'm going! You promised me just now!" Wang Peijun pouted and said coquettishly.

  "Alright, alright, I'm afraid of you." Wang Jingchu said with difficulty: "But this time you have to listen to Uncle Li's words and can't run around by yourself."

  "Ah, I know, thank you Dad." Wang Peijun exclaimed happily and immediately stood up to give Wang Jingcun a kiss on the face.

  "Hey, you haven't wiped your mouth yet..."

  Wu Yu lay quietly in bed, thinking about his chance to go to Portugal for a trial. Since high school, he had been working part-time at KFC, and all his tuition fees and living expenses for the past two years were earned by himself. He saved the remaining money, although not much, but accumulated over time, there were three or four thousand yuan. However, these three or four thousand yuan were still a bit short for going to Portugal. The air ticket alone cost five thousand yuan, and if other expenses were added, it would be at least seven or eight thousand, not counting the return ticket.

  "Alas... what to do, still not enough money." Wu Yu sighed softly. His younger brother Wu Sheng, who had gotten out of bed after a day of training, was already sleeping tiredly, but Wu Yu couldn't sleep, worrying about the plane ticket to Portugal.

  Just as Wu Yun was worried, the door was gently pushed open, and Li Chunhua stood at the door, looking at Wu Yun on the bed, saying softly: "Xiao Yun, haven't you slept yet?"

  Wu Yu heard his mother calling him, so he sat up and looked at Li Chunhua, saying "Mom."

  Li Chunhua beckoned Wu Yun down and said, "Come down, Mom has something to say to you."

  Wu Yu got up and followed his mother to the balcony: "Mom, what's wrong?"

  Li Chunhua took out an envelope from her pocket and handed it to Wu Yu: "Xiao Yu, there's 10,000 yuan here. Is that enough for you to go to Portugal?"

  。”

  "Mom, I don't want to, I'm not going to Portugal." Wu Yu handed the envelope back to Li Chunhua and declined.

  "Xiao Yu, don't be insincere. Playing football has been your dream since you were a kid. Mom will support you." Li Chunhua stuffed the envelope back into Wu Yu's hand.

  "Mom, I have my own money, don't worry." Wu Yu continued to persuade.

  "Do you think I don't know how much money you have? You've been working part-time at KFC, and for the past two years, you haven't needed me to pay for your tuition or living expenses. How much money do you still have? You're able to support yourself, and that makes Mom very happy. Now you have the chance to pursue your dreams, Mom doesn't want you to give up, and you shouldn't disappoint Mom either. Take it quickly." Li Chunhua once again stuffed the money into Wu Yu's hands.

  "Mom, I won't let you down." Wu Yu took over the envelope, and his eyes were a little moist.

  "Don't worry, although we don't have much money at home, we still have some savings. If it's not enough, you can tell Mom again." Li Chunhua continued to say.

  "That's enough, I also have some money myself. If you give me 5,000, that will be enough." Wu Yu opened the envelope and wanted to return half of the money to Li Chunhua.

  "Don't have to give me back, Mom knows you're well-behaved, as long as you make a good life for yourself." Li Chunhua gently stroked Wu Yu's cheek, looked up at this son who was already a head taller than herself, and said softly: "It's late, go to sleep soon."

  "Uh, Mom, you should go to sleep too." Wu Yun said with a choked voice as he looked at Li Chunhua.

  He turned around and walked back into the room, at that moment, tears finally couldn't stop falling, like broken pearls dropping onto the floor. At this moment, Wu Yu vowed to make a name for himself on the court, so his mother would no longer suffer from hardship and labor, and let everyone in the family live a rich life.

  Looking at Wu Yun's receding back, Li Chunhua's face, worn out from over a decade of hard work and etched with wrinkles, revealed a hint of relief. Amidst her faintly worried expression, this glimmer of comfort shone exceptionally bright. The 10,000 yuan she gave to Wu Yun today was the only savings left at home. Before school starts, she would have to work even harder to earn enough for her younger son Wu Sheng's living expenses.

  Under the moonlight, even if life is difficult, it can't compare to the depth of a mother and son's relationship.
