The night is quiet, and people sleep. In the silence and peace, the snow-white angel slowly fell from the night sky.

The street lamps were already lit, and in the square glass cover, the light of the oil lamps seemed more lonely in the cold wind, and the shadows of the lampposts lay faintly on the snow. A few pedestrians in the middle of the street hurriedly walked, leaving some footprints on the snow and disappeared silently.

The trees by the roadside are adorned with silver flowers, the buildings are shining with dazzling silver like jade, and the willows with their leaves are covered with fluffy and shiny silver streaks...... Unexpectedly, in just one night, the hospital that was originally in the impression of gloomy and terrifying is now presented in front of me with a different beautiful scene.

The snow had not melted a few days ago, reflecting the moonlight, the square in front of the hospital was as white as day, and the wind that came at night froze the residual snow all over the ground, and the four of them stepped on it and just rattled.

The four of them stayed at the entrance of the hospital for a while, their hair already dyed silvery-white. The cold brought by the cold wind made his mother shrink slightly to avoid Liu Li's back, and he poked his head to look at the fluttering snowflakes shining from the back street lamp.

Liu Qiao noticed that there was a bench under the lamp, and hurriedly ran over to sweep away the snow on it with his hands. Her hands were warm, and as soon as she touched the snow, it turned into water. It had been clean and clean, and her hands had been red from the cold. I didn't care about bouncing and running back to my mother.

Her mother's illness dragged her body like this, and she felt very tired when she walked a little farther. As soon as everyone sat down on the chair, they could hear her panting, and Liu Li felt very sorry for her. He said to her, "Let's sit for a while, and then we'll go back." Then we will talk about when we will go back after we get up and check it out. ”

Mother mumbled twice, she didn't care about the coldness of the chair. Tilt your head back and look at the snow.

You can clearly see the slowly falling snow through the light, each small snowflake is a small pattern, they have both common and their own style, some like bright stars, some like thin sewing needles, some like flying catkins, some like hexagonal petals, and like six fans spreading...... It's really beautiful. There is no such thing as a snowflake in the world......

She caught a piece with her hand and gently put it in her mouth, and as soon as the snow touched her lips, it melted, coldly moistening her lips.

"It's so beautiful!" Liu Qiao pulled the corner of his mother's clothes and rested his head on her.

The mother smiled, and her smile made people feel that they were not in the ice and snow, but like spring had arrived, giving people a very warm feeling.

"It's beautiful, and the world of ice and snow in winter will eventually dissipate. Spring is coming, and the world will become a sea of flowers. And then ah~ It's autumn again, and the leaves of the trees will turn yellow and they will all fall to the ground. Then it was winter, everything was silent, life was slowly passing and waiting for spring to come.

Each season has its own beauty and its own life. ”

Liu Qiao asked: "Then Mom, what does spring, summer, autumn and winter represent?"

"I only know that they symbolize birth, old age, sickness and death, death will usher in new life, and new life will take away death," the mother said. ”

Liu Qiao didn't understand what this meant, she also caught a snowflake and put it in her mouth like her mother.

She said, "Is it that there would be no death without new birth?"

The mother thought for a moment and said, "That's the case, maybe not!"

Liu Li understood the meaning and was silent beside him. There are four seasons of birth, old age, sickness and death, isn't my mother the most longing for winter? But I didn't think so much, spring came, and she recovered like this.

He didn't notice a hint of pain on his mother's face, but it was only fleetingly suppressed by her.

She stretched out her arms and placed her fingers on her father's shoulder as if she were hugging two siblings from behind.

Her gaze was no longer on the snow, no longer on the dark sky. It's the three people who can see it, as if they can see their own lives from them.

They sat like this for a long time, and Liu Li always chatted with his mother. The father was silent, occasionally turning his head to look at the corners of his mouth with a few excited smiles.

Liu Qiao couldn't be idle, and after running to the open space in front, he built a snowman for a while. It has legs as high, but it has no facial features, only a general morphological structure.

She happily pointed to the snowman and said, "Mommy, look!

All three of them were happy, and the mother said, "What about yours, father and brother?"

Liu Qiao thought about it and hurriedly picked up the snow on his head: "I'll do it right away!"

Then she built three smaller snowmen next to her mother's snowman. Only the size of a fist, that is, simply squeezing two round balls up and down together is a person.

Liu Li was happy: "Sister, why is my mother so big and ours so small?"

Liu Qiao scratched his hair, regardless of whether his hands were dirty or not.

"Because...... Because there's no snow here, it's a long way from there, and I'm tired of running. Hey~"

The surroundings of her snowman were scraped clean by her hands, her hands were dirty and red, Liu Li quickly wiped her and then put her hands in his pocket to cover them.

"Stupid, don't do it if it's so cold! you can't use it if your fingers are frozen for a while, you know!" Liu Li scared her.

Liu Qiao rolled his eyes: "You're stupid! your fingers are frozen and you can use it again after soaking it in warm water for a while, you still think I don't know." Hmph, stupid brother......"

Liu Li smiled bitterly, she would never talk like this before, it seems that she still can't stay with Liu Yudie for a long time, otherwise she won't have to turn it over the day after tomorrow.

The mother touched Liu Qiao's little head very dotingly, and said to Liu Li: "Son, I'm a little tired, you can carry me back." ”

Liu Li nodded: "Okay, go back and rest early, and I'll ask the doctor to come and check your body early tomorrow morning." ”

He took Liu Qiao's hand out of his coat pocket, walked to his mother and bent over. His mother smiled and put her arms around his neck and lay on his back.

Liu Li knew that his mother was sick and his weight would definitely be lost, but he really didn't expect that the weight on his back would be so light that he didn't expect. He had to gently, with this weak body, for fear of accidentally getting her. Liu Qiao was beside him, and his father walked behind him with his hands behind his back.

"Mom, go back and I'll buy you more supplements to replenish your body well. ”

The mother smiled: "What are you going to do with that money, you have to save the money to marry Bai Ran and go home?

Liu Li was unhappy: "Daughter-in-law is another matter, of course your body has to come first." It's a big deal that I won't marry a daughter-in-law. ”

"Nonsense!" Mother patted his head with her hand as she spoke, and then rested her head on his back peacefully, looking very tired. The eyelids opened slightly, and they were about to close when they saw this.

Liu Qiao was next to him and patted Liu Li's leg: "That's it, my brother is talking nonsense." ”

The mother's voice gradually became quieter: "I'm so tired! Son, when you get home, can you call me?"

"Mom, don't sleep, I'll go back immediately, I'll turn on the air conditioner for you in the ward to warm up and some. Liu Li said that when he saw that his mother ignored him, he shouted a few more times.

"Mom?"

"Mom!"

Liu Qiao tilted his head and asked, "Brother, what's wrong with my mother?"

Liu Li stayed where he was, he turned his head and shouted Dad.

The father felt that he had closed her eyes and a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. He patted her on the shoulder with his hand and called her name. Still unresponsive, he held out his finger tremblingly and put it under her nose.

"One second, five seconds, ten seconds......"

The father retracted his fingers, and he choked up, "Your mother...... She fell asleep and she walked towards winter. ”

She walked towards winter, Liu Qiao didn't understand, but she couldn't see her mother's appearance, and just thought that her mother was asleep. It's just that I don't understand why my father's choking gradually turned into sobbing, and then he let out a loud cry, like a child, but he is obviously a child.

She looked at Liu Li, her brother's expression was stiff, and he didn't cry like his father. His body was motionless, frozen like the one-two-three-wooden man she played with her friends.

Liu Li's eyes were a little overwhelmed and unbelieving. How could he believe that his mother had left like this, and she was heading for winter......

"Returning to the light" is just a folk saying, and modern medicine has no exact definition and explanation for it. Even if this phenomenon exists, it is extremely rare,

A very small number of elderly people who do not have acute serious diseases and die will indeed have a relatively sober period before death.

Sometimes people suddenly become conscious, their appetite improves, and so on dramatically.

His mother had been seriously ill for so many years, and she had already run out of oil and was on the verge of death, but she suddenly got better and could walk on the ground. Like a normal person in every way, anyone would doubt this. My father told Liu Li about this situation after my mother got up, but Liu Li didn't believe it. He believed that his mother was really well, not the moment of return before death.

Without shedding a single tear, he carried his mother on his back and walked into the hospital.

The father was crying while supporting his mother in the back, and Liu Qiao seemed to understand something. She also cried and called her mother, Liu Li seemed to be unable to hear the two crying, and put her mother back on the bed. Covered her with the quilt, gently stroked her face, and then kissed her gently on the forehead.

"Good night, my dear mother. ”

He walked out of the room, at the end of the hallway, in the corner of a crouched in the shadows, staring blankly at the wall.

My father called Liu Yudie and Bai Ran, and it was already five o'clock in the morning when she arrived.

Although it was not yet dawn at this time, it was not enough to reach out and lose sight of five fingers.

They ran to the hospital morgue, and soon there were bursts of crying.

At noon, the four of them returned to the ward and began to pack up their mother's clothes and some other things.

Bai Ran asked with red eyes, "Dad, where is Liu Li?"

The father shook his head and said in a hoarse voice, "I haven't seen him all the time." ”

"I'll look for it. When she was about to go downstairs at the end of the corridor, she saw a person in the corner.

The man was cold, his eyes were dull, and his eyeballs were all red and bloodshot. It was as if his movement was frozen, and he didn't even blink his eyelids. If you don't pay attention there, I'm afraid you'll walk through.
