Chapter 60: Gu Yuexin's mother

Gu Yuexin followed Li Yiyan out of the community and walked towards the church. As he walked, his face began to change color, from red to white, from white to black, and he guessed Li Yiyan's destination.

The cold face that had not been seen for many days resurfaced, Gu Yuexin stopped, and asked pretending to be confused, "Yiyan, where are you going?" There is not much time left before the plane takes off, and I have to go back to pack my luggage. ”

Li Yiyan continued to walk forward, and said as he walked, "Brother, it's almost here, I won't delay boarding, and besides, I don't have any luggage." ”

Gu Yuexin was still standing in place, with a serious face, he didn't want to move forward, especially not wanting to go forward with her, walking here had already touched the softest place in his heart.

Li Yiyan walked out a few steps, and seeing that the person next to him did not follow, he hurriedly turned his head and trotted all the way, came to his side, took the initiative to hold Gu Yuexin's arm, and smiled with a smile, "Brother, I will be there soon, just in front." ”

"What do you want to do?" Gu Yuexin still didn't move, and said angrily.

Li Yiyan saw that Gu Yuexin's face was slightly gloomy, his eyes were cold, and he knew that he might have guessed the destination, so he lowered his face and bit his lip and murmured, "Brother, I know that your mother died very early, I want to send her a bouquet of flowers to express my condolences before leaving, okay?"

Gu Yue's annoyed and bloodshot eyes stared at Li Yiyan, the green tendons on her forehead burst out, and she yelled, "No!"

glanced at Li Yiyan, who was stunned by his shouting, and felt a little pain in his heart, but this so-called sister stepped on his bottom line, so it was strange not to be angry. With a lift of his hand, he threw the bouquet of flowers on the side of the road and turned away.

Li Yiyan watched Gu Yuexin walk away step by step, with tears of grievance and self-blame in his eyes. She just wanted to send a bouquet of flowers to his mother before leaving, and use her meager strength to do something for the grievances of the previous generation.

Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, picking up the lilies on the ground, gently picking off the rotten leaves on them, holding them in his arms again, and walking quickly towards the church.

Seeing Li Yiyan holding the lily, looking left and right and walking into the cemetery behind the church, the person standing under the shade of the tree sighed slightly and followed quickly.

When Li Yiyan was eating breakfast, he thought about going to Gu Yuexin's mother's grave before leaving, and quietly called the chief housekeeper aside to ask the location of the cemetery, which turned out to be behind St. Mary's Cathedral, not far from here.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked to the intersection of the church, Gu Yuexin guessed her purpose and left in a huff. Well, go yourself.

Walking into the cemetery, there is a cold and eerie atmosphere in the air. Cremation was popularized in China many years ago, and cemeteries were buried in urns, but foreign countries are different, and a complete dead person lies under each tombstone. Although it was broad daylight, Li Yiyan's heart was still pounding.

Since she is here, she can't retreat, she can only move forward, there will be nothing to do in the daytime, she can't stop cheering herself up.

Slowly moving forward from the path in the cemetery, following the road signs, carefully looking for the tombstones of Gu Yuexin's mother, during which two were new tombs, and the thought of a person with a lifelike face on the ground broke out in sweat on his timidly head.

The Gu family is a large family, and the family cemetery is in the innermost area, and the further you go inside, the fewer people you can see around. Vaguely hearing footsteps behind him, Li Yiyan was startled, and turned around suddenly, but there was no one. But after walking a few steps, I heard the sound of the soles of my shoes stepping on rotten leaves behind me, and when I turned around again, there was still no one.

Her little heart was pounding, and when she looked around, she could see that there were no people moving around, and it was hard to see that she had seen it in broad daylight, touching the sweat that came out of her head, and ran away, never daring to look behind her again.

Soon, she found the tombstone that the butler had told her. The front of the monument was cleaned very cleanly, and there was a bouquet of chrysanthemums that were about to wither, which should have been visited two days ago.

Li Yiyan stood in front of the tomb, feeling extremely complicated about an aunt she had never met. Sincerely, he placed the lily in his hand in front of the monument and bowed deeply three times. She didn't know the process and method of tomb sweeping in the Americans, and she didn't know what religion Gu Yuexin's mother believed, so she could only express her sorrow with a sincere heart in the way of the Chinese.

After bowing, she felt that she should say something, and maybe she could hear it. His eyes lowered, he took a step forward, stroked the tombstone with his hand, and said frankly, "Auntie, you don't know me, and I haven't met you, but we have people we care about, Uncle Gu Fei and Gu Yuexin." After a pause, he said faintly, "Your son Gu Yuexin has been unhappy for so many years, because he hates my mother for snatching Uncle Gu Fei and letting you die with hatred." I don't understand the things of the previous generation, and I can't change who is right and who is wrong. But our generation should leave behind hatred and have a happy and beautiful life. ”

Faintly hearing a sound on the side, Li Yiyan was startled, turned his head and looked around, there was no one, could it be that he had hit an evil spirit today, and his heart was even more up, so let's hurry up and leave.

After pondering for a moment, he said resentfully, "Auntie, my mother Hu Xin didn't feel sorry for you 18 years ago, she and Uncle Gu Fei are innocent, I hope you know everything, don't blame Uncle Gu Fei, and don't hate my mother anymore." ”

Three more deep bows. After getting up, he bit his lip and said, "I'm very sorry, in order to let Gu Yuexin let go of hatred, we lied to him." Actually, I've always wanted to have an older brother, and this time I came to the United States to get my wish. You must bless your brother to let go of his hatred and live his life well. Also, if you can, please bless me and help me keep this secret, if my brother knows that I lied to him, he will be furious, and he will attack my parents, and maybe kill me. ”

"I'm not trying to deceive him, you must do me a favor. ”

"At noon today, I will take Uncle Gu Fei back to China to fulfill his wish to return to his roots, and you must bless him with safety. I'll come back to see you when I have the chance. Goodbye, Auntie. ”

After saying this, Li Yiyan breathed a deep sigh of relief, hoping to be blessed by his aunt.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning in the sky frightened Li Yiyan to squat on the ground, and when he looked up, the sky was dark, the surroundings were gray, and the raindrops had crackled and fallen.

With a tense heart, he bowed 90 degrees, said goodbye to the tomb owner, and turned his head and ran towards the outside of the cemetery.

The raindrops mixed with the cold wind drilled straight into Li Yiyan's neck, the English signs on the path, the more I looked at it, the more I looked like it, I couldn't distinguish it, I didn't know many words, the cemetery was not in a good sight in the rainstorm, and I ran out for a while, I didn't feel like the road I came from.

She was so nervous that she was very sure that she was lost, and when she turned her head to look around, there was no one, and there was no mobile phone. I stood on tiptoe to find the location of the church, but the mist rose from the cemetery, and my vision was blurred, and I couldn't find the spire of the church.

Before she knew it, she ran under a small tree, and the wind blew fiercely, and the rain still fell on her body without mercy. Cold and tired, holding his hands on his chest, shrinking his neck, looking at himself surrounded by tombstones, the horror movie footage he had watched before scrambled to jump out, and the terrifying pictures of vampires crawling out of the cemetery came to mind, and the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, and tears fell unconsciously.

was crying in a low voice, an umbrella was put on her head, looking back at the comer, grievances and excited tears mixed with the rain fell.
