Zh: "姐姐，你回来了!" 小明的一声呼喊，把丽华从思绪中拉回。

Zh: 母亲微笑着问，“丽华，你的公司怎么样了？”
En: Mother asked with a smile, "Lihua, how's your company doing?"

Zh: 丽华沉默片刻，脸微微发红。
En: Lihua was silent for a moment, her face slightly flushed.

Zh: 她看了看弟弟，又看了看父母的眼睛，终于开口了。
En: She looked at her brother, then at her parents, and finally spoke.

Zh: “妈妈，公司……遇到了一些困难。但我会努力解决的。”

Zh: 小明看着姐姐，决定也说出自己的心声。
En: Xiao Ming, looking at his sister, decided to share his thoughts as well.

Zh: “爸妈，我在海上感觉很充实，但我也想更多时间陪你们。”
En: "Mom, Dad, I feel very fulfilled at sea, but I also want to spend more time with you."

Zh: 父母静静地听着，心中既担忧又安慰。

En: Lihua looked at her brother and softly said, "Xiao Ming, I've decided to keep working hard on the company but won’t hide the difficulties anymore."

Zh: 小明则坚定地回答，“姐姐，我会继续在海上，但也会更多时间回家。”
En: Xiao Ming responded firmly, "Sister, I will continue working at sea but will spend more time at home."

Zh: 一家人终于在阳光下重聚，心中的阴霾也逐渐消散。
En: The family finally reunited under the sunshine, and the darkness in their hearts gradually dissipated.

Zh: 他们知道，不论前方有多么艰难的路，只要一家人在一起，就没有什么过不去的坎。
En: They knew that no matter how difficult the road ahead might be, as long as they were together, there was nothing they couldn't overcome.

Zh: 丽华和小明站在岸边，肩并肩，面对着蓝天大海。
En: Lihua and Xiao Ming stood side by side on the shore, facing the blue sky and sea.

Zh: 他们都明白，家人的支持和理解，是最珍贵的力量。
