Stepfather is the sun prose that never sets.

His father died when he was young, and his stepfather became his childhood partner

Zhao Xiang and his brother Zhao Fei are children of bad karma, who live in Gongjiaping Village, Jingyang Township, Yunxi County, Hubei Province. In August, 1991, their father, Zhao Xinglin, worked in the Wangjia administrative area of his hometown. One day, when he was informed to rush to the Jingyang township government for a meeting, he had an accident and left their mother and son forever. At that time, my brother Zhao Xiang was under 6 years old and my brother Zhao Fei was under 9 years old. Dad's sudden departure is like leaving their mother and son in a dark valley without sunshine. The two brothers stayed with their mother, Lu Xianmei, and cried at their father's grave for a long time. It was a sadness of losing their father's love and sunshine.

In April, 1992, Liao Yunyi, a young farmer in his hometown who plays and sings, carefully entered this sunless family with the help of others. His arrival, like a warm sun, penetrated the cloudy sky and fell on the bodies and hearts of mother and son.

At first, the two brothers were a little reluctant to accept this long-lost father's love. They tried to keep a certain distance from him and refused to call him "Dad". My mother tried hard to create opportunities for the two brothers to get close to their stepfather, asking them to bring a light, tea and water to his stepfather who was tired of farming. Every time, Liao Yunyi would look at the two brothers like a father, hug them excitedly and call their birth names softly. When eating, he always picks out delicious food and scoops it into the brothers' bowls.

On one occasion, Zhao Xiang, a naughty little son, knocked out a cigarette in Liao Yunyi's mouth with a slap. His mother picked up a thin bamboo stick and angrily tried to hit Zhao Xiang. Liao Yunyi quickly came to protect him and said, "Our Xiang Er didn't mean to. Why are you so fierce? What should I do to scare him?" Because he was afraid of his mother's spanking, Zhao Xiang tried his best to drill into his stepfather's arms, and his stepfather held him tightly. Later, he fell asleep sweetly in his stepfather's arms ... Since then, whenever he was tired of playing, Zhao Xiang always took a nap in Liao Yunyi's arms, and only snuggled in his stepfather's arms at night could he fall asleep quickly.

Liao Yunyi is a folk artist. Whenever he has free time, he plays with his brothers in different ways: playing willow flute, rolling iron rings, spinning top, jumping off the house and guessing riddles ... Liao Yunyi became their best childhood friends, and they also became their stepfather's little "tails". When Liao Yunyi dug the ground, they played with bumps on the ground. When Liao Yunyi was chopping wood, they were playing hide-and-seek in the Woods. When Liao Yunyi played suona to others, they clapped their hands in front of them and beat the time.

This little memory, year after year, year after year, accumulates into an extremely precious family relationship between father and son.

A stepfather is a bosom friend.

Mother Lu Xianmei is a very virtuous and capable rural woman. She saw that the two brothers were close to her stepfather all day, and her face was filled with a happy smile again.

Every moment, my mother inadvertently instills in my brothers the idea that no matter what happens in the future, my stepfather should not be treated as an outsider. My stepfather has a great kindness to our family, and the most important thing to be a man is to be conscientious. Young and ignorant brothers, in fact, have long been able to feel the broad and deep fatherly love of their stepfather, which is a fatherly love without any personal interests.

In those countless ordinary days, the family treated each other with respect and frankness. My mother and two brothers accepted my stepfather with open heart, and my stepfather also cared for my mother and son wholeheartedly. They all became intimate friends who talked about everything. Therefore, the democratic atmosphere in the family is particularly strong, and they are not picky about each other. Everything they say and do contains deep affection for kindness and friendship.

When Zhao Xiang was less than 6 years old, she clamored for going to school every day, because she was not old enough to go to school, and the school refused to accept it. Liao Yunyi got Zhao Xiang a set of new books from other places, and also bought him a new schoolbag with double straps. The schoolbag contains an advanced pencil case, a pencil sharpener, exercise books and workbooks. When the child carries a new schoolbag and follows his stepfather and brother to school as an "supernumerary student", that kind of pride and happiness warmly surrounds him.

Liao Yunyi often comes to school, stands outside the window and on the edge of the playground, looks at the two brothers lovingly for a while, then goes home very contentedly and praises Lu Xianmei for having "two clever and clever sons".

Liao Yunyi had an unhappy marriage before he entered this house. It was a widowed widow. Soon after Liao Yun decided that her family was adopted by adoption, the widow showed her true colors and made a fuss about him. When he had nowhere to hide, he often spent the night in the haystacks and straw piles. It didn't take long for him to leave that bitch and then walk into this home that just lost his father's love.

According to the policy at that time, Liao Yunyi and Lu Xianmei could have another child after their family reorganization, and Lu Xianmei also wanted to leave a legacy for Liao Jia. However, Liao Yunyi said that he didn't agree with anything. He told Lu Xianmei many times that he didn't want to have his own flesh and blood. He was afraid that after having his own flesh and blood, he would share a father's love. He said that his father's love only belonged to Zhao Fei and Zhao Xiang, and could not be shared by another child. Stepfather often says, "I'm not afraid of being kissed, but I'm afraid of being kissed!" " He said: "these two children don't treat me like an outsider, but they call' dad' with their feet behind them, so I am very happy and satisfied. How can people not be satisfied?"

In a blink of an eye, 14 years have passed and the two young sons have grown up. Zhao Fei, the eldest son, was admitted to a foreign military school as he wished.

My mother died, and my stepfather was the only backbone in my family.

In the first month of the lunar calendar in 26, Lu Xianmei suddenly felt unwell, with unbearable pain in her abdomen and uterine cavity. Liao Yunyi found his relatives and friends overnight, raised thousands of dollars, rented a van the next day, and took Lu Xianmei to Yunxi County People's Hospital for examination. When he was diagnosed with bladder cancer and ovarian cancer and needed immediate surgical removal. Liao Yunyi hurriedly called the military school, told his eldest son Zhao Fei about Lu Xianmei's illness, and asked for Zhao Fei's advice, but only outwitted his youngest son Zhao Xiang, who was studying for the exam in high school.

During the operation, the doctor took out a malignant tumor weighing about 7g from Lu Xianmei's uterine cavity. Liao Yunyi said on the spot that even if he spent 18, yuan, he would cure his wife's illness. The attending doctor called Liao Yunyi to another room and told him with a heavy heart: "Your wife's cancer has reached the advanced stage, and the cancer cells have spread to the whole body. There are still two months to live at most, and no matter how much money you spend, you can't return to heaven. Go back and prepare for the funeral!" When Liao Yunyi heard this, he knelt down in front of the doctor and cried and begged the doctor: "No! No! You must save my wife, she is only 43 years old! I can spend as much as I want. Please, please save my wife. The child can't live without a mother! " Liao Yunyi, who has experienced many death scenes, was afraid and desperate at that moment.

After Lu Xianmei was discharged from the hospital, Liao Yunyi gave up many profitable businesses and waited in front of Lu Xianmei's bed day and night, fumbling to adjust her life and taking care of her carefully. How many times, Liao Yunyi put up with great grief, forced a smiling face and told her some funny jokes. When she couldn't help it, she hid in the kitchen and toilet and cried quietly. In the last ten days of Lu Xianmei's death, Liao Yunyi wandered around the house behind her back like a baby to relieve her pain ... < P > On May 21, 26, Lu Xianmei left for another world with infinite nostalgia for life. My second aunt told the two brothers that Liao Yunyi and the two brothers were the ones my mother was most worried about when she died. She is afraid of this, Liao Yun means that the Zhao family will have no place; I am even more afraid that when Zhao Xiang was in the college entrance examination, he could not bear the blow of losing his mother and failed the exam; What's more, I didn't see Zhao Fei marry and have children. Hearing the message from my second aunt, Zhao Xiang and his brother Zhao Fei, who came back to attend the funeral, knelt in front of their stepfather and said, "Dad, you are our only relative, never leave us!"

After Lu Xianmei was buried, Liao Yunyi handed over all the 8,-odd yuan sent by relatives and friends to Zhao Fei: "This is the cost of Xianger's future study. Please keep it for him. Don't waste it!" Zhao Fei quickly took out more than 5 yuan and left it to his stepfather as a gift. However, Liao Yunyi said, "I can earn and pay back the gift slowly. I have skills, so I don't have to worry about this problem!"

On the same day, Liao Yunyi sent Zhao Xiang to the market town of Jingyang Township to dry his tears and said, "Xianger, you must hold on, strive for good grades in the exam, and comfort your mother's soul in heaven!" Zhao Xiang nodded sensibly and said, "Dad, don't worry, I will remember it!" "

Then Liao Yunyi sent Zhao Fei away, leaving him alone. From entering this home to Lu Xianmei's death due to illness, he has lived in harmony with his brothers for fourteen years. In the past fourteen years, Liao Yunyi has successfully played the role of father, loving all the members of this family as always. In the heart of the elderly grandfather, he is a filial son; In the hearts of younger brothers and sisters, he is a kind big brother; In the eyes of the younger generation, he is also a kind father and uncle.

In the future, I would like to be a crutch for my stepfather's life

On June 1th, 26, Zhao Xiang finally walked out of the examination room easily and told her stepfather on the phone: "The exam went well, with an estimated score of not less than 56, which can comfort my mother's soul in heaven." I thought my stepfather would laugh with joy, but there was a sad cry from my stepfather on the phone. Zhao Xiang asked quickly, "Dad, what's the matter with you? Are you all right? " After a while, the stepfather choked up and said, "Xianger, dad is fine, dad is happy!" "

The next day, Liao Yunyi came to Jingyang Town early in the morning to welcome his son back. As a result, he didn't receive Zhao Xiang until afternoon. How can he be so fast? It takes four hours to get home from the county seat at the earliest.

at the beginning of last year, for fear that his stepfather was overworked, which was harmful to his physical and mental health, the brothers repeatedly advised his stepfather to set aside part of the contracted land and plant less. When Zhao Fei graduates, he must take his stepfather to spend his old age. Liao Yunyi told Zhao Fei, however, that he didn't want to grow a variety of food, but only wanted to grow some cash crops such as oilseeds and peanuts, and sell more money for the two brothers to study. When both of them graduated and found jobs, he made another plan.

Perhaps, both brothers know what his stepfather meant by "making other plans". The two brothers cried and begged his stepfather not to leave them, hoping that he would not abandon his father-son friendship for more than ten years. Zhao Fei, the elder brother, discussed with his younger brother many times in long-distance telephone calls to find another companion for his stepfather, and he also got the support of his younger brother. When the two brothers told their stepfather this meaning by phone, his stepfather burst into tears again: "No, I can't forgive myself for doing this, and your mother will not be satisfied in the grave."

Zhao Xiang, the youngest son, said that in the past two years, his stepfather has obviously lost weight, and a man in his forties is as white as frost. Stepfather is at home alone, doing housework, cooking by himself, working in the fields, feeding pigs and raising chickens. He is busy all by himself. Neighbors often see stepfather Lacrimosa, and he quietly goes to his mother's grave to cry many times.

At the end of last year, Zhao Fei, the eldest son who graduated from the military academy and went to work, called back and asked his stepfather to work as a doorman near the army station in Sichuan, and he could take care of him at the same time. However, Liao Yunyi didn't go. He said that Zhao Xiang is a sophomore and still needs to spend a lot of money. When he can move, he should try his best to help his son finish his studies.

at the beginning of this year, Jingyang township government also gave special care to this special family and hired Liao Yunyi as a rural road maintenance worker. He said that working as a road maintenance worker, plus earning some money by playing and singing, gave Zhao Xiang more confidence in finishing college.
