Come on Daddy!

Doris reached out to take Wilfred's hand and shook it lightly. She pouted, "Great-grandfather, Dad is right. We'll be worried about you. Just come back to the city with us. I'm already used to your cooking. I cannot eat well without you. Great-grandfather..."

Wilfred couldn't resist Doris' cute look and childish words. He softened and looked at Doris, "But great-grandfather can't leave this family. I want to stay here with your great-grandmother."

"It's spring now. I have to farm. If I leave, the fields will be deserted. I only know how to farm. So, I'm afraid I'll trouble you a lot if I go to the city with you. So, I will not go. I will be fine and take care of myself."

Wilfred stretched out his wrinkled and dry hand and touched the top of Doris' head, his eyes full of love.

"Grandpa, your health is more important. Don't be so stubborn." Rose felt sad when she saw how stubborn her grandfather was, "We cannot just go back and leave you here. If you do not go with us, then we will stay with you here all the time."

Rose held Doris' shoulder and made such a decision.

"Yes, Mom and I will stay with you." Doris nodded heavily.

"This won't do. You have to go to school and your Mom has to take care of your Dad. How can you guys stay here all the time?" Wilfred shook his head, "You don't have to worry about me."

"Grandpa, if you don't want us to worry, then come back with me." Rose also insisted.

"Grandpa, are you afraid that there will be no one to farm?" Bright knew that Wilfred worried about his fields and did not want to see them deserted in spring, "I'll find a way to farm. Then you should go back to the city with me, okay?"

Wilfred looked at Bright in confusion, "You don't want to do it for me, do you? You can't do this..."

"Grandpa, it's true that I'm not good at this. I'm not going to mindlessly parade my ability either. But I can solve it." Bright looked to Rose, "Take good care of Grandpa, and I'll go to get it done."

Bright said to Wilfred again and was afraid of him backtracking, "Grandpa, then it is decided."
