Chapter 153: Deception—Protection
Feeling the gust of sea breeze in the dream, I seemed to smell a salty smell, and my six senses began to gradually merge with the "me" in the dream—this had never appeared in previous dreams.
When I noticed this wonderful change, I couldn't help but be amazed: what is going on?
- But at that moment, the sound of the bus arriving at the station woke me up from my dream.
I slowly opened my eyes and found that the sky outside the car window was completely dark.
I looked out the window at the familiar street that was brightly lit, and a sense of hometown came to my face—even my heart, which had just been made a little nervous by that strange dream, was much more relaxed at this time.
After a while, the car gradually stopped in the courtyard of the passenger station. Seeing that the car was already stable, I rubbed my sleepy eyes, put my bags on my back, got up and followed the flow of people, and got out of the car together—but I didn't call my mother and ask her to pick me up. Because I don't want to trouble anyone for my own sake.
The early autumn wind in Jixi is still so cool and comfortable - I stood under the car and stretched my waist, trying to walk on a whim.
I made up my mind to pay attention, so I carried a large bag and a small bag, dragged a suitcase, and walked on the way home.
Along the way, the lights are dim......
When I got home, it was past ten o'clock in the evening.
When I got to the door, I took out my key and opened the door.
"Squeak-"
"Girl's back?" accompanied me as I opened the door, and my mother's voice sounded in the door.
When I heard my mother's movements, I felt a lot of grievances in my heart at once--although I felt a storm in my heart, I didn't know where to start for a while......
"Hmm. ”
In the end, I could only respond softly and swallow these grievances back into my stomach.
Probably hearing my listless movements, my mother came out of the house. She watched me lose my armor and hurriedly stepped forward to take the bag in my hand. He looked at me very worriedly, and said anxiously, "Oh, what's wrong with you?
I shook my head and forced a smile: "Alas, nothing. It's just a little tiring to sit in the car. ”
After that, I was afraid that my mother would ask me again, so I hurriedly ran back to my room, closed the door lightly, and fell heavily on the bed.
"Whew......" I lay on the bed. I breathed a sigh of relief tiredly.
However, just as I looked up, I suddenly noticed a figure at the door of the bedroom!
Half a year of birth and death made my nerves explode in an instant, and I sat up from the bed and yelled at the door
"Who!—"
"It's you, motherfucker, you bunny...... Scared me!" Mom's reproachful voice sounded outside the door.
"Uh......"
Hearing my mother's voice, my tense nerves gradually relaxed. With the slow release of my nerves, I began to scold myself in my heart: Luo He, Luo He, is it a dream in the car that has put some water into your brain? When you get home, you are still startled, and you want to die?......
After scolding yourself enough in your heart. I sighed helplessly, and when I looked up, my mother was still standing at the door, not leaving. Seeing my mother's shadow reflected on the door glass, I couldn't help but feel a little sad: she probably wanted to ask me something, and she was afraid of disturbing my rest, so she never came in.
Thinking of this, my nose was slightly sore, and I hurriedly walked to the door and opened the door of the room.
"Mom. You...... What do you have to say?"
My mother was stunned by my sudden opening of the door, and when she heard me talking to her, she came back to her senses, and said with some hesitation: "Girl...... You are not on this tour. What are you hiding from me?"
Listening to my mother's words, I was shocked—but I knew that there were some things that people close to me could not say: because of these things, it was very likely that they would be treated. It is also involved in this catastrophe......
"Uh...... Hehe, it's nothing, it's just tired. I forced a smile - but the dizziness in my head made my eyes darken. In order not to let my mother see the flaws, I hurriedly leaned against the door frame and continued: "Oh, don't worry, just rest and rest......" I endured the gradually increasing dizziness, and pretended to be calm and said to my mother: "Look at it, it's almost eleven o'clock, hurry up and go to sleep, I'm also quite tired, so I'll sleep." ”
"You...... Alas," my mother looked at me, sighed, turned away, and walked back to her bedroom.
I watched her turn away, and hurried back into the house, slamming the door shut—by this time, the vertigo was about to consume me completely.
I fell headlong on the bed, closed my eyes, desperately trying to suppress the vertigo - and just as I was battling the residual toxins in my brain, my mother's voice rang out from outside the door again:
"You kid, you always keep things a secret...... But don't think I don't know anything. ”
"Huh?"
Hearing my mother's sudden words, my nerves trembled suddenly, and even my head, which was dizzy by the residual toxin, was temporarily frightened a little clearer: what does my mother know?...... Could it be ...... Does she know where I went?
The thought of this instantly creeps out - if she really knew something...... Thinking of this, I hurriedly shouted at the door, "What? What do you know?"
"If I do, don't be angry...... "Mom said with some anxiety outside the door.
Hearing her say this, my already anxious mood instantly became more nervous, and I hurriedly urged: "Say it quickly!"
The old mother stood outside the door and hesitated for a while, and after a while, she continued:
"From the moment you called me the other day and said you were coming back, I felt that something was wrong - because this is the time of day, shouldn't you be back school? Why are you coming back all of a sudden?...... I wondered, so I called your instructor and asked him how you took your leave...... As a result, he told me that you were on sick leave.
When I heard that you were sick, I was anxious, so I asked him what kind of illness you were. He told me that the hospital certificate reads: Severe insomnia due to psychotoxin residues......"
When my mother said this, her voice was a little choked: "When I heard it, my ears were like thunder: You kid! How can ......you still be exposed to psychotoxins? Are you carrying me behind your back...... Secretly taking drugs?"
At first, when I heard her say that I was on sick leave, I slowly breathed a sigh of relief: it seems that my mother didn't know where I went, but was just worried about my condition -- but when I heard her say whether I was taking drugs or not, I was already a little dizzy by the damn "centipede poison", and I almost fainted all of a sudden, and I couldn't stop wailing in my heart: "Mother, mother! You are really imaginative! If drug abuse can make me like this, it is estimated that there will be no drug rehabilitation centers and addicts in this world!"
But then again, even though I didn't take any drugs, I still couldn't tell the truth.
I shook my head vigorously, covered my face and lay on the bed, calmed down for a while, and slowly said, "Your old lady is imaginative...... It's just that the source of my toxin is more legendary than you think......" Speaking of this, I paused, and after making up a story in my head, I continued to speak: "My poison was left because I was bitten by a poisonous snake when I was traveling...... If it hadn't been for the rescue, I'm afraid I wouldn't have come back to see you—"
"What!-" Before I could finish speaking, my mother slammed the door open, walked in, looked at me with tears on her face, and said, "Where the hell did you go, girl? Didn't you say you went to Beijing? How can you still be bitten by a poisonous snake? Do you have to make us worry about death, you are comfortable?......
Seeing her crying silently, I hurriedly comforted her: "Oh, isn't I okay......?
After persuading me for a long time, the old lady was finally coaxed by me - on the way, I began to use my talent as an actor again, and made up nonsense to tell me how my toxin came from......
“…… That's it, I just wanted to go to the suburbs to play in the woods on a whim, but I was bitten by a poisonous snake, and now I have finished my medicine, and I have asked for leave, and I will be fine if I have a good rest, you can rest assured......" In the end, the old lady finally believed me, and after instructing me to take the medicine on time every day, she hurriedly left, for fear of delaying my rest.
Listening to her gently close my door, I collapsed on the bed in an instant—like a deflated ball, limp all over. But I still "admire" my own in my heart - Lao Tzu not only has the talent of an actor, but also has the ability to write a screenplay!
Thinking of this, I smiled self-deprecatingly.
Slowly closing my eyes, I remembered the silent tears of my mother just now, and my heart was both sad and warm: it was so good to be cared for.
But...... I still want to ask you to forgive me for my deception.
Because, sometimes, deceive...... It is also a kind of protection. (To be continued.) )
