Chapter 380: Maybe it's because the flowers are too beautiful
It's been more than a week since the update to the third act of The Undertaker.
The production of theatrical film standards stands out from the crowd on short video platforms like Doushou. Coupled with the previous three series of videos that have been recommended on the homepage one after another, the popularity of the movies on the platform is already quite high.
After the last two scenes of the video were released, the number of views on the video exceeded 50,000 almost instantly.
With the influx of many new and old netizens, the content of the last two chapters of "The Undertaker" officially unfolded in front of netizens;
Inherited from the plot of the third act "Don't cry, this is not the real end", after the bathhouse proprietress dies and Lao Lin sees off the proprietress away, Si Yuan returns to school.
Compared to her previous loneliness, she now has a friend - the daughter of the proprietress who has just lost her mother, classmate Orange.
One is because of my mother's forced drug rehabilitation and stepped into a new living environment, and the other is because my mother's death has suffered a great change in my life.
The camaraderie may not be pure, it's more about needing each other than appreciating each other – but one way or another, it was born.
Two girls who are also full of confusion about life and the future have been inseparable since then.
They went to school together, in a daze in class at all knowledge they didn't understand, slipped to the stone bridge outside the town after school, thought about their own thoughts to the willow buds and reeds by the river, and waited by the way to pass by the old forest here after work from the funeral home.
When they couldn't say whether they were waiting for Lao Lin or just trying to find a reason for themselves to get out of their loneliness, they would occasionally talk about their parents;
"Xiao Yuan, what are your parents like? Why have I never heard Lao Lin or you mention it?"
"What is there to say? I haven't seen my dad for as long as I can remember. My mom said he died after I was born, I don't know if it's true or not. Anyway, I've never seen it, and I've never seen a picture or anything.
As for my mom, a woman who made a mess of her life. When I was a child, I remember that she would be late for almost every school day, and then retching and apologizing to the teacher.
She never took me seriously, and I remember when I was in elementary school, the school asked students to visit the zoo and write about their reflections. She took me to a dirty and noisy place and watched the chickens, ducks, geese and dogs.
Two years later, I realized that the place was not called a zoo, but a vegetable market.
When I grow up, it will be even more excessive if I don't have to worry about her, either drunk or on the way to get drunk. Every time I drink too much, I come home crying. Not only did she cry herself, but she had to hug me and cry, God knows why she had so many tears. With her, I was so depressed every day. ”
"Well, that's better for my mom. Although nagging, at least he is still like a normal person. ”
"yes, that's why sometimes I envy you so much, having a good mother. ”
"No, I'm so envious of you right now. ”
"Envy me? You don't have a sick brain, I hate her to death, since you don't know how to raise children, why did you give birth to me? Come to this world, it seems that I suffered with her. It's a miracle that I'm still alive, okay?"
"But not only are you still alive, you also have your mother. ”
“......”
Speaking of this, the two girls had red eyes and stopped talking, just looked at the waves in the river and continued to be in a daze.
Occasionally, two girls who can't even memorize ancient texts and have to be punished by the teacher for writing will also face this river to discuss philosophical issues;
"Orange Orange, do you think these butterflies know that they will die in a few months?"
"I guess they know...... Otherwise, I wouldn't have been in such a hurry, and I felt like I was in a hurry all the time......"
"Then you say, does their life have a meaning? What are they for? Just to lay eggs in the soil, and then wait for autumn to come and then freeze to death and starve to death?"
The questions are so profound that neither the person who asks the question nor the person who asks it knows the answer.
"Maybe it's because the flowers are so beautiful. ”
I don't know when, Lao Lin was already standing behind them.
Looking at the butterflies fluttering in front of him, Lao Lin, who was carrying a thermos cup behind him, smiled and gave his understanding.
The two children seemed to understand whether they understood or not, and followed behind Lao Lin and walked along the path that was already surrounded by green shoots and small wildflowers to the bus stop.
Such a confused and comfortable life did not last long.
First of all, the departure of Xiao Cheng's classmates, the death of the bathhouse proprietor, and Xiao Cheng has to live with her grandparents - in another city.
As soon as he said goodbye to his only friend, another thing followed.
The civil affairs officer who had sent him here came to the door again on a calm afternoon and brought news about Si Yuan's mother, who had died of a heart attack during a withdrawal reaction and needed her family to deal with a series of things.
After the civil affairs officer sent the notice and left, the old and simple room fell into a deathly silence.
"I don't want to go. ”
I don't know how long it took for Xiao Yuan to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and stubbornly don't overdo it: "She has always fulfilled the responsibility of a mother, and she knows that she will cause me trouble, since she was a child." For so many years, she hadn't even cooked me a decent meal, and from the time I was able to get to the stove, she cooked the noodles herself. Do your laundry and tidy up the house. She has troubled me for more than ten years, and now she wants me to clean up the mess for her when she is dead!"
Lao Lin, who had his back to her, did not speak.
There was another dead silence.
It wasn't until the sun outside the window was already setting in the west that Xiao Yuan finally moved his lips and hugged his knees, "Lao Lin, you don't want to go either, right?"
Lao Lin still didn't answer.
"She hasn't been in touch with you in years, and you hate her too, right?"
Still no answer.
"Why did she fall out with you in the first place?"
This time, Lao Lin replied.
"She was eighteen pregnant with you that year, and I asked her to get rid of the fetus, but she didn't follow. She said she loved that stinky boy, that she wanted to marry that stinky boy, and that she was going to give birth to you. Two children, do you know what love is, what marriage is? I beat her up with that stinky boy, and she said she hated me. I said get out of here and never come back. ”
His voice was extremely hoarse, as if he had suddenly aged ten years.
Hearing the past he never knew, Ohara's eyes widened.
Immediately, two lines of tears slid down her cheeks: "Then she...... What do you say?"
Turning his back to this Xiaoyuan, Lao Lin raised his head and sighed: "She left, and when she went out, she told me that even if she died outside, she would not step into this house again." ”
As he spoke, Lao Lin turned around and wiped away the old tears on his face: "Later, I heard that the stinky boy left her and ran away, I asked people many times to find her, but every time I was empty. ”
Looking at Xiao Yuan, who was already in tears while holding the death notice, Lao Lin smiled: "She's so stubborn, she really did it." ”
......
Nearly halfway through the fourth act here, netizens who have been waiting for more than a week to finally see the update have died one after another.
Many sand sculpture netizens paused the video and returned to the comment area.
Most of these people are old fans who are familiar with Li Shixin's style.
They know that if they don't take a breath to look at it.
eyes, I'm afraid I'll cry blind......
