The story of father and son

Once upon a time, there was a young man who made a mistake and was scolded by his father before running away from home. You know, he has never received such training before, it's really unacceptable. Where are you going? Come back quickly! "His mother shouted anxiously behind him. She shouted a few times but it was useless, after all, the young man was still angry. The mother hurried to chase after him, trying to pull him back, but the father stopped her and angrily shouted, "No matter what, if he doesn't come back, he will never come back!" The young man felt greatly insulted and even more angry when he heard this, and couldn't help but feel a sense of awe that made him run into the forest in one breath. He continued to walk forward, passing through many forests, crossing countless mountains, crossing countless streams, and arriving at a mountain inhabited by giants. In these few days, he only ate wild fruits and couldn't fill his stomach at all, so he walked into a house and asked them for something to eat. I got lost in the forest and haven't eaten for several days. Can you give me something to eat? "He said to his hosts. The lords all pitied him and immediately served the young man a sumptuous feast of good wine and food.

If only I could be as tall as you guys, "the young man said thoughtfully. Okay! This is too easy, "the husband replied. How can it be done? "The young man asked in surprise. Let my wife feed you some milk, and soon you will grow as tall as us, "replied the giant. His wife was happy to hold the young man in her arms like a baby and give him milk to drink. After a while, she was very happy and whispered, "Oh! Be good, drink slowly, you need to drink more." The young man suddenly became angry after hearing this. He stopped drinking milk and loudly said to her, 'You can't deceive me like this. I've grown up to be a little man.' His wife quickly stopped and couldn't help but laugh with her husband.

The young man drank continuously for a few days, and after a few months, he really looked as tall as a giant. Then, he searched for several days and finally found a beautiful place with clear mountains and water. He decided to settle down here and live a peaceful life from then on, living an ordinary life like this. Subsequently, he went to fetch enough stones and trees to start building his house by the clear river. He used stones to cut walls and tree trunks to make doors and windows. When the house was built, he prepared some wood to carry on the street and sell it for money, buying everything necessary, such as sleeping blankets, face towels, pots, bowls, chopsticks, hoes, etc. He cultivated a field on the fertile land by the river to plant crops, and also built a livestock pen, raising cows, several pigs, and a group of chicks. Alright, I can finally live happily, "the young man said contentedly, falling onto the bed and preparing to sleep for a few days to take a break. You should know that he has been busy from morning till night every day for the past few days, living a very hard life.

As for the father, it was just a momentary anger, and a few days later he missed his son very much. That mother was truly heartbroken and nauseous, constantly worrying about the young man, unable to eat or sleep. At the same time, he felt his body becoming heavier and heavier, and soon turned into a stone figure. At this moment, the father was grief stricken and determined to find his son even if he traveled the world. Ah! "Father sighed deeply, never expecting anything unfortunate to happen. He put on a pair of wooden shoes specially made by a wooden oar master and set off. He walked through forests and mountains, walking from morning till night every day because he wanted to find his son as soon as possible and didn't feel tired at all. After finishing the dry food he brought, he searched for wild fruits in the forest and begged for alms from them whenever he encountered someone. After a few years like this, he didn't feel tired because he thought he had already searched several countries and should be very close to his son. He would soon be able to find him. Because he lived in the wind and slept outdoors, he was as thin as bamboo shoots, but his fluffy hair that didn't reach his knees covered most of his body, making those who saw him mistake him for a fat person.

Finally, my father arrived at the stone house by the river. Wow! "Father couldn't help but exclaim as he saw the tall stone house like a small hill," This must be a giant's house

At this moment, the father was extremely hungry, and although he was very worried about being bullied by the giant, he finally gathered the courage to knock on the door. But the sound was too faint. The giant inside heard it, but mistook it for the sound of mosquitoes. After knocking for a while, the father didn't see anyone coming to open the door and didn't know if the master was at home. So he shouted loudly, "Are you at home?" The young man was surprised and said, "Isn't that my father's voice? The young man walked to the window incredulously, poked his head out of the window, and looked towards the door, only to see a chubby wild man like him. He had long hair that didn't even reach his knees and was dressed in tattered clothes. He didn't look like his own father at all.

The young man couldn't determine who he really was, so he had to ignore him. No one answered when he shouted, my father thought to himself, the giant must not be at home. Father doesn't plan to go on the road yet. He wants to wait for the giant to come back and beg for something to eat. After washing himself in the river, he will sit on a smooth stone in the sunny ground and sunbathe. He sat facing the house, his neat hair lying outside his legs, revealing his bony face, bamboo figure, and spider silk like limbs. The young man looked out from the crack in the wall and saw him clearly. He's not anyone else, it's his father! He had become so thin that it was imaginable that he must have suffered unimaginable hunger and suffering. The young man was so heartbroken that tears streamed down his face. They are as big as bowls and make a "thumping" sound when dripping onto the floor, much louder than thunder.

Father heard it, so he walked up to the door and knocked hard, shouting loudly, "Is there anyone in the room?" The young man quickly wiped away his tears. But the result was the same as before, so he thought to himself that it must be the mouse doing something strange and sat back on the stone.

The young man sat silently until dark, neither cooking nor lighting the fire. The master hadn't come back yet, and the father couldn't figure out what was going on, so he lay under the eaves and covered himself with long hair to sleep. The young man thought to himself: Didn't you ignore me back then and want me to never come back? Now, I'm eating and living very well, and I don't want to go back! Now we are strangers and have nothing to do with each other. He thinks this way psychologically, but in fact, he still feels very sorry. Later, he also fell asleep.

My father had just fallen asleep when he started talking in his sleep: 'Your sweet potatoes are really delicious, ten million times more delicious than chicken legs.' The young man knew he was very hungry and muttered to himself that we had nothing to do with each other, but he felt a little uncomfortable. Moreover, when he heard such words again, he felt even more uncomfortable than before. After a few times, he felt uncomfortable and no longer had any drowsiness. But it wasn't much, not long after there were lightning strikes, heavy rain, and strong winds. The young man's heart is like being chewed by many insects. The person under the eaves tightly wrapped themselves in their hair, shrunk to the size of a night, and the wind and rain kept blowing on them. However, he didn't wake up because he was too exhausted. At this moment, he sighed and said, "Oh my! Why is hail suddenly falling?" After a while, his whole body was soaked in rain, and he said, "Why is it snowing again so quickly?" Upon hearing this, the young man felt a pain in his heart as if it were frying in an iron pot. At this moment, he truly began to worry about his father and wanted to call him into the house. But his anger had not completely subsided, and he muttered to himself, 'Mind him, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. What does he care about me?' Soon he fell asleep too.

The next day at dawn, the father woke up on time as before and went to search for his son. He was so hungry that he took small steps like an ant, walked down from the eaves, and headed outside the courtyard. The young man woke up for some unknown reason and felt empty and lost when he saw it through the crack in the wall. When my father walked away and disappeared in the woods, I truly felt heartbroken, reluctant, and homesick. I wanted to go back with my father and not remember the quiet and ordinary life here at all. So he quickly caught up, but it was difficult for him to recognize his father, so he followed him from a distance. However, he was still afraid of being seen, so he pulled out a thick tree and covered himself like an umbrella. They walked like this for a while, and the father finally realized who was following him behind. When he looked back, the young man immediately stopped, motionless. Father didn't see anyone, so he continued walking forward. But as soon as he left, he noticed someone following him behind, so he turned around and looked behind, but the result was the same as before.

Soon, they arrived at a wide grassland, and the father walked in, thinking that he could get rid of that person now. But he still couldn't get rid of it, so he immediately turned his head and looked carefully, not expecting it to be a big tree. Father was taken aback and at the same time felt very scared, thinking that he must have transformed into a cannibalistic fairy who wanted to capture him. Finally, he bravely walked over and tried to figure it out. When he saw the giant standing behind the tree, he felt relieved. He patted the giant's leg and asked, "Hey, big guy, what are you doing hiding in the tree?" The giant didn't answer anything, but when he asked again, he said, "I'm the trunk!" "Can you sit down?" The father continued to ask. No, I can't move the trunk. "" Then I'll climb up, I've already climbed into the trunk, "the father said, but sat on the ground. The giant was indeed tricked by him, thinking he had climbed into a tree and quickly crouched down to prevent his father from seeing him. But the result was the opposite, father and son met. The father was very happy and asked with some skepticism if the giant was his son, because he looked so much like his son. The young man took this opportunity to admit. Then how did you become so tall? "Then, the father asked inexplicably. Because I ate the milk of giants, "the young man replied, telling his father everything.

Ah! "The father sighed deeply." What should I do? Finding you is the happiest thing in my life, but our small house can't accommodate you! "The giant said," Don't worry, I'll go find a nursing woman to drink for a while and she'll turn back. "Then they walked home. Whenever they see someone, they beg the housewife to give the giant some milk to drink. Because their attitude is sincere and kind, they are all willing. They were about to return home when the giant had transformed back into an innocent child. At home, the young man felt heartbroken and nauseous when he saw his mother who had turned into stone. He regretted his actions a thousand times over. His tears flowed onto the stones like a small stream. I didn't expect that when the Stone Man was completely soaked, he suddenly came back to life. The family of three reunited with indescribable joy, their smiles shining like the sun. In the future, the young man will no longer be stubborn. Father cares more about him, and they live happily and contentedly.
