Chapter II
So, on that gloomy moonlit night, I took Mai'er from the dance studio and gave her a sum of money from the boss, which she deserved, and she had made so much money for the dance studio, so I didn't feel guilty. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Sent Wu'er and Cao Yan away, my heart was empty, and I suddenly didn't know what to do, I think I couldn't let it go, so be an invisible person and continue their story!
Wu'er and Cao Yan chose a place called Yingxian Town to live, and the fairy and demon are two heavens, which is really a great irony for me.
Every day, Cao Yan would write some calligraphy and paintings to sell, and by the way, he would help others write letters on his behalf to earn some silver taels to support his family. Not many people can read here, so their lives are worry-free.
In addition to washing and cooking every day, Wu'er will also do some female workers to embroider the village to supplement the family.
Autumn went to winter, summer came and went, and it was the second year in a blink of an eye. In the past nearly a year, I have never appeared in front of them, just silently looking at them, looking at their happiness, I can't help but shed tears, where is my happiness?
Wu'er is pregnant, it has been eight months, Cao Yan and Wu'er are very happy, and they have prepared everything early, just waiting for the arrival of the little life.
I don't know if there is a providence in the dark, maybe it's a coincidence, on this day last year, Cao Yan escaped from the cage with Wu'er, and on this year's day, Wu'er gave birth to their daughter, Cao Yan named Cao Tian.
I think that Mai'er should be happy now, she finally got rid of that cruel fate and ushered in happiness. But fate doesn't seem to want to let go, it still grabs everyone's throat, even if it's only dying, it still doesn't want to let go.
Before he was a year old, Yingxian Town ushered in a catastrophe here, and the plague spread to this land. Seeing one person after another fall and never get up again, everyone panicked and wanted to escape. The government would not allow this to happen, and they would rather close a town than let them take the plague elsewhere and bring it to the whole country. The town is sealed, which means that everyone inside will have to wait for death. Cao Yan often runs outside, so naturally he can't escape being infected, and Wu'er washes his face with tears all day long.
"I'm not afraid of death, it's a pity that she is the love of our whole life, the crystallization of our love, but she will be buried deep with us, and she will be buried in the ground forever. She's still so young, her wonder hasn't bloomed yet, I... After all, it's still fate, maybe she shouldn't have come to this world, we forced it, then, let me send it away" After saying this, Wu'er raised her hand to cover the baby's mouth and nose.
The breeze blows the wind chimes, tinkling and melodious. Suddenly, a tree petal was blown off, and pieces were flying. In the midst of the petals in the sky, in the jingle of wind chimes, I walked up to Wu'er again, and gently flicked Wu'er's hand away, "Leave it to me!" Not an inquiry, only a statement, just because I knew - she would understand.
"Thank you!" Wu'er's empty eyes were not surprised to see me, everything was as calm as water. "You used to say that you were a demon, but in fact, in my heart, you are clearly a fairy dust, I know you can save her, then please take her far away, I'm going to accompany her father, help me say to her: "I'm sorry, you are my pride"
"Okay, anything else?"
"No," seeing that I was about to step out of the door, Wu'er shouted, "Benefactor, we will repay you as a cow and a horse in the next life, thank you!"
I didn't help her, I still walked forward, and there was the sound of dancing falling to the ground behind me, and I still didn't look back and walked forward, all the time.
I kept walking, I don't know how long I walked, I didn't know how far I walked. He had always been quiet, sometimes looking at me with dark and bright eyes, sometimes sleeping with his eyes closed, looking peaceful.
It's like going back to when I was wandering, but now I'm not alone, and there's a little more person in my arms, and she's leaning.
Actually, after I took Tilt away, I changed her name to Tilt, but I still like to call her Tilt. I also didn't like what she called me, I said to her, "I'm not your mother, so don't call me mother, auntie, sister or anything, because I'm not, I'm just entrusted by someone to raise you"
"And what do I call you?"
"Xing'er, my name" I don't like the noise of the town, so I built a few wooden houses in a place near the mountains and rivers, and since then I have devoted myself to education here.
Watching her grow up little by little, I found that she really looked like a dancer, so I only taught her dancing skills on weekdays, and nothing else. The more this is the case, the more it looks like a dancer, and there is a dance in every smile, every gesture and every move.
Time flies, flies by, never stop or stay for anyone or anything.
Today is the seventeenth birthday, and I leave the hut and go to the maple grove next to it, which we planted in the year we came, a total of 365 trees, and now they have become the climate.
The maple leaves are red again, and it has been 17 years, and I have witnessed the birth and growth of the dump. Walking through this maple forest, the past comes to mind again.
The sky is washed blue, occasionally a white cloud drifts by, the sun shines lazily, in the red maple forest, there is such a light white figure, dancing in this beautiful scenery, people are fascinated by her, never want to leave.
She is very smart, her dance is better than her mother's, more attractive, there is a kind of ethereal and free that does not eat the fireworks of the world, like the light butterfly, which will fly away at any time, like the wind that cannot be stayed.
After the dance, she stood there and smiled at me, and said to me like her mother did back then, "Xing'er, you are here, how can I dance?"
"Tilt is always the best"
"What about my mother?"
"That's different"
"You say that every time, is it that I don't dance as well as her"
"Dumping ・・・・・・"
"Okay, got it, I won't say it"
"Well, let's eat" I don't understand, every time I mention Wu'er, I compare it with her, but they are mother and daughter, can they be compared?
Tilt, today is your seventeenth birthday, and I should leave, but can you take care of yourself? This sentence choked in my throat, and I swallowed it several times, but I can't disobey the established things, since I have to leave sooner or later, let's be decisive.
Looking at her background, I suddenly had the courage to speak, but when I said I wanted to leave, I saw her back suddenly jerk, and my heart hurt like a stab.
"Why, why, why!" I was speechless as I watched the hysteria, because I didn't know how to say it.
"Didn't you say you'd take care of me, why did you leave me alone?"
"You're grown up to take care of yourself"
"So you're finally free, and you can get rid of my burden, right?"
"When people grow up, they should learn to be self-reliant and not rely too much on others"
"I don't want to listen, I don't want to leave me, for me, how can you be someone else?"
