I went to the back room, Zhou Jian was looking at the scenery outside the window with his back to me, holding an eye in one hand, which had been lit, but he didn't smoke, and the cigarette ash was very long. I've known him for so long, and it's the first time I've seen him look so lonely.

He heard my voice and looked back at me: "You're back? ”

I walked over: "I'm not angry, what's wrong with you, you're in a bad mood?"

"It's not good. He flicked off the ash and snuffed it out: "I actually have something for you." ”

I nervous and nodded, "Okay, you can say it." ”

Zhou Jian looked at me, silent, and I also looked at him a little nervously, could it be that something was wrong?

After a while, he finally sighed: "Actually, I still don't know how to speak, I want to ask you, who is your mother?"

I shook my head: "My mother is dead, and my father didn't even make her a tombstone, I only know that her nickname is Chun'er or something, but I don't know if it's her real name." ”

Zhou Jian nodded and muttered, "That's the case." ”

"What's the matter, is there something wrong?"

Zhou Jian smiled bitterly at me: "Not really. I was just... One thing comes to mind. Never mind. I'm skeptical now, so I'll tell you when I find out about it. He took his leave.

I didn't force him to stay, and his personality estimated that I couldn't ask if I asked forcibly.

My dad came in with a bowl and chopsticks, and it was sweet garlic, and he and my brother loved to eat it, so they ate it as a snack. He looked at Zhou Jian's back curiously, "What's the matter, did you two quarrel?"

"How come, we have a good relationship, Dad, today we met a woman named Yang Xi. ”

My dad's bowl fell to the ground and shattered in half. Panicked: "Did you say Yang Xi?"

"yes. The woman was his mother, but they seemed to be out of love. I eavesdropped on their conversation......"

I told me what had happened, and then I saw that my dad's face was quite ugly and pale, and he was an honest man who was not good at concealment, which was even more shocking.

"Dad, what the hell is wrong, am I really your child?"

"What are you talking about, kid?" my dad frantically picked up the fragments of the magnetic bowl on the ground, "Are you not my child or anyone?

"So what is the relationship between Yang Xi and Uncle Zhou?, why do you say that?" I squatted in front of him and stopped him: "You seem to be scared, like you have encountered something." ”

"It's really nothing! It's just that it used to be a husband and wife, and you know, some people with bad ingredients were thrown into the farm to do the hardest work. At that time, Yang Xi was a red Miaozheng, although Zhou Feng was also a soldier, but he had a relative abroad, so he was dealt with, Yang Xi was also involved in running to the farm, she was a flower back then, she grew well, and many officials took a fancy to it, and later, in order to return to the city, she divorced Zhou Feng, and it is said that she married a leader, and she has not seen it since. I didn't think they were still in touch?" my dad didn't even dare to look at me, his eyes were flustered.

That was many years ago, and soon after, everyone was rehabilitated, and they rarely saw each other again.

I knew my dad wasn't going to lie, and there must have been some truth in what he said, and some of it was something he hadn't mentioned.

"I have nothing to do with this person, am I? not an enemy?" I said.

"Look at what you said, what can you have to do with this woman!

But she said that Uncle Zhou Feng did something very bad for her. I looked at him.

"Hmph! That's a typical thief shouting to catch a thief, she wants to marry a good man. He hurt Zhou Feng so badly, framed him in various ways, and let him live in a cowshed for a few years, and now he is embarrassed to say these things! How can there be such a shameless woman in the world! Abandon her husband and children, and still say that? God doesn't split this shameless woman!" My father suddenly looked angry and coughed violently.

I beat him on the back: "Forget it, since it has nothing to do with it, don't contact it, I can't understand the things of that era." ”

At that time, I was able to survive, and there were indeed people who did a lot of things that I couldn't have imagined. It's all a tragedy of the times.

My dad coughed for a while: "You will always be my daughter, don't think about it." ”

I hesitated for a moment and quickly nodded: "That's good, I'm also willing to be Daddy's daughter." ”

My dad looked at me and smiled with satisfaction: "When I hugged you back, you were still a meaty child, who knew that when you grew up so big, I didn't have milk for you to drink, so I made rice cereal for you, and stole goat's milk from neighbors, which can be regarded as growing up." Dad is happy to see you now. Dad doesn't want to mention the past, so he and my daughter live happily ever after, okay?"

I agreed, I can imagine how difficult it was when my dad took me, Zhao Qin estimated that he would strangle me several times, I knew that my dad was really good to me.

As for the rest of the matter, what can it be? It's just a bad debt from the past.

I went back after having dinner with Ou Zhenhai, talking and laughing, without mentioning anything else.

When we got home, both of us were very tired, and we were about to go to bed after a simple wash, Ou Zhenhai went to the kitchen and took a big bowl of Chinese medicine for me to drink.

"Ah, if you don't give it to me, I'll forget. I smiled sheepishly.

"I've been drinking it for a long time, don't cut it off, otherwise the effect of the medicine will be gone. ”

I could only nod my head, pinch my nose and pour the Chinese medicine down. It was sour and bitter, and the aftertaste was very disgusting, unbearable, really too bad to drink! I finished drinking, and before I could speak, I felt that my mouth was sweet, and it was he who stuffed me with a piece of rock candy, and I watched him smile and eat it.

"Sweet or not?"

I smiled and nodded, and he stroked my head and went back with the bowl.

During the period of drinking medicine, the doctor was not allowed to have intercourse, and could only chat with him on the pure quilt. I asked Ou Zhenhai if he could come up with those things back then?

Ou Zhenhai touched my hair and smoothed my hair: "Isn't it just that the woman hooked up with the leader to go back to the city, and then the man was convicted? My mother told me a lot that many people lost their humanity in order to go back to the city, and my dad did it lightly and didn't frame my mother. I just lied to her. My mother had that dream, waiting for him to come back and pick herself up, and it was many years of waiting, how stupid you say. ”

I thought about it and said, "But that Yang Xi swore that Zhou Feng was sorry for her." ”

"I'm really sorry, right? I don't know much about Yang Xi, I met a few times when I was in the office, but I feel that she is the kind of person who has one thing to say, and no one is a saint, can't Zhou Feng make mistakes?"

I sat up with the quilt in my arms: "Zhou Feng made a mistake, Yang Xi betrayed him, abandoned his wife and children, and the children didn't recognize him." ”

"How can you not admit it? I haven't heard that I haven't seen her for nine years? It means that Zhou Jian saw her nine years ago, and Zhou Jian's living standard is not low, he can drive, he can go to school in Beijing and get a job, just with Zhou Feng's living standard and background, he can't afford it. You must know that at that time, you need a letter of introduction to go to university. ”

I glanced at Ou Zhenhai, and it made sense. Isn't Yang Xi so heinous in this way? Otherwise, people like Zhou Jian would only turn a blind eye to their mother, right? When she scolded Zhou Feng, Zhou Jian just said that he had no right to take care of their affairs. But I didn't say that what she said was nonsense.

"What the hell is that?" I wondered.

"How do I know? Don't be so curious, go to sleep. ”

I leaned close to him, and suddenly remembered something, tonight should be Karen and Tincher's wedding day, right?

was thinking about how the two of them snapped, and the phone suddenly rang. I quickly got up to answer the phone.

Ou Zhenhai scolded: "If Karen calls, she will fall directly!"

I glanced at Ou Zhenhai and picked it up, but it turned out to be my brother's phone. My brother's voice was quick and very anxious.

"Auntie can't do it. In the hospital. Come on!"

I groaned, my heart racing, "What the hell is going on?"

"It's sick, the doctor said, there's no hope. "My eldest brother said that in the evening, Jingjing called and said that her mother had fainted, and she was out of breath, and hoped he could help.

Before the accident, the eldest mother was sitting in front of the stove to light the fire, and the moon took a handful of peanuts for her grandmother to eat, but as soon as she touched her, she fell to the ground, still holding a half-burned firewood in her hand.

When Jingjing came home, she saw her daughter hugging her grandmother and crying, and her legs were weak with fright, so she called my brother.

Although she has a man, she herself knows her weight in the hearts of others, and she has no one to ask for except my brother.

I really didn't expect my aunt to have an accident so soon.

Ou Zhenhai and I hurried to Jingjing's house. Ou Zhenhai is not familiar with her, so I don't feel anything, I have deep feelings for my eldest mother.

She was the first woman to be nice to me after I was reborn, and when we took refuge in her, she took in my brother and me without any dislike or suspicion.

She is a woman with little knowledge and ability, she just wants to give everything she has to her daughter so that her children can live a good life. But reality gave her one slap after another. Now that she's dead, I feel so sad that the corners of my eyes are wet.

Ou Zhenhai said: "Okay, good, don't cry, everyone has that day, she is so sick, and now she goes, it is also a relief." ”

"If she hadn't died, Jingjing would still have a spiritual sustenance, but the eldest mother is gone now, I really don't know what will happen to Sister Jingjing. ”
