It snowed heavily in Tokyo, and the white patch confused the beautiful eyes, as if the breeze had disturbed Yumeka.

After Qiu Jue finished class, she packed her things and walked outside the school. The snow on the road gradually melted, and Qiu Jue went to a restaurant to buy a lunch and take it back.

In the quiet corridor, Qiu Jue stood in front of the door and knocked on the door, and after a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the house, and he asked lazily in Japanese: "Who!" ”

"It's me." Qiu Jue said. The door was stuck, and Qiu Jue handed the food in her hand into her arms: "Didn't eat." ”

"Yes, just got up." Qiu Ci stretched his waist, rubbed his eyes, put the food on the table, and went to brush his teeth.

Qiu Jue saw that the computer in her room was still on, so she walked over to take a look, and the cartoons were only drawn with line drawings and had not been colored, so Qiu Jue asked, "Sister, you have been drawing comics all this time!" ”

"Yes." Qiu Ci covered his face with a hot towel and wiped it to make a dull sound.

"This painting is quite familiar." Qiu Jue looked at it for a while, and suddenly remembered, and ran to Qiu Ci excitedly and said, "Isn't this "KAMI"? Did you draw it? ”

"You've seen it?" Qiu Ci looked at him, also a little surprised. Qiu Jue shook his head: "I haven't read it, my classmate has read it, he told me about the plot, it's probably a book where a waste god who is not a human or a ghost wanders around the world and listens to stories, I feel a bit like Pu Songling." ”

"That's pretty much what it means." Qiu Ci walked to the table and ate the lunch brought by Qiu Jue: "It was a novel I wrote before, and then I thought it was too poor, so I deleted it all, but I felt that it was a pity, so I drew it." ”

"Looks like I'm going to have your back." Qiu Jue picked up the chopsticks and sat next to her to eat another meal.

The snow outside disappeared unconsciously, Qiu Jue sat on the sofa and watched TV, and Qiu Ci sat in front of the computer to draw.

When Qiu Ci came back to his senses again, it was Qiu Jue who answered the phone, and it was their father who called, Qiu Jue's eyes were red, he looked at Qiu Ci and said, "Sister, Mom, he is hospitalized, and Dad said that it was breast cancer." The screen on the computer showed a woman in red with a wine glass, sitting in the quaint wine shop next to a low table, looking at the bright moon in the dark night sky, her eyes full of sadness.

And the autumn speech at this moment, just like the woman in the painting, has a little more woodenness.

"You...... Say what? Qiu Ci asked softly, she didn't dare to ask too loudly, like a mischievous child, for fear of being discovered for her prank.

"Sister......" Qiu Jue looked at her and said nothing more. The time difference between the two countries is only an hour, but Qiu Ci feels that that one hour is almost a light year away.

She listened to Su Yinian scolding her, like an angry lion, roaring non-stop, and finally, he covered his face and cried: "Do you have a heart in Qiu Ci!" Qiu Ci stood expressionlessly outside the airport, looking at the familiar street, the emotion that welled up from the bottom of her heart made her eyes almost uncontrollably red, and Su Yinian's voice on the phone choked: "Su Yinian." She said.

"What?"

"I'm back."

"You're back, are you thinking about coming back at this time? Why didn't you say anything and left, not even your mother. Qiu Ci followed Qiu Jue and walked quietly: "That's ...... If you want to hate me, hate me. Su Yinian was stunned, after so many years of Qiu Ci being alone outside, I don't know how difficult it was, whether he had cried silently at night, at that moment Su Yinian had a kind of guilt, he was angry, the woman lying on the hospital bed was also her own mother!

What right does he have to accuse her.

"Xiao Ci, I'm sorry, it's good for you to come back, I'll wait for you at home." Su Yinian's voice softened.

After hanging up the phone, Qiu Ci and Qiu Jue stood on the side of the road and waited, and Dad said that he would come to pick them up today, so just wait.

Originally, Dad wanted Qiu Ci to go to his place for a meal, but Qiu Ci felt that it was better to go home first, so Dad didn't object and drove her to the door.

Qiu Ci has always felt that although her parents are divorced, there is still a relationship between them, and it can be seen from the fact that they have been living in a city since the divorce, and if the other party has anything, they will be the first to know after getting off the car, Qiu Jue helped Qiu Ci carry the suitcase, and Qiu Ci said: "Dad, when you are free, accompany me to see my mother." Dad's face was a little ugly: "Your mother shouldn't want to see me, I still won't bother her, Dad and Mom have their own lives, so Xiaoci, you have to forgive Dad." ”

"Got it." Qiu Ci did not force it. After Qiu Jue sent her home, she waved her hand and left, and after Qiu Ju went back, Su Yinian, Su Xia, Han Mo, Wen Ruojin and Xu Yang were all in the house, and they seemed to be waiting for her.

So when they saw Qiu Ci walking in, they immediately stood in a row and smiled at her, shouting loudly: "Qiu Ci, welcome home." With this welcome, the bitterness of so many years seems to have disappeared all at once, and all that remains is infinite touch.

Qiu Ci bowed to them: "I'm sorry. Seeing this, Xu Yang smiled and said: "I have been in Japan for a few years, and I have learned etiquette well, and I can bow, and it is such a standard ninety degrees." For a moment, the sad atmosphere that was about to spread suddenly dissipated.

Su Xia walked over, he had grown a lot taller, and he had reached Qiu Ci's nose: "Sister, what about the gift you said you wanted to bring me when you left last time?" Qiu Ci spread his hands: "What should I do if my sister forgets?" Su Xia pursed her mouth: "Sure enough, women are liars." "What this kid said is a little vague, is there something going on?

Qiu Ci glanced at the others twice, only to see Han Mo nodding at her eyebrows, it seemed that something was indeed wrong.

After a few words of greeting, Su Yinian ruthlessly interrupted the warm picture, and didn't say that he would let Qiu Ci rest well, and directly dragged her to the hospital.

The smell of disinfectant water in the hospital suddenly reminded her of the child she hadn't hugged yet, standing by the door and covering her chest, the child came out a little early, so would his health be bad, and if he didn't have a mother, would he be bullied.

When Qiu Ci was still panicking, Su Yinian pushed her, and she looked up and saw the woman on the hospital bed, who had lost a lot of weight.

She looked at Qiu Ci with tears burning in her eyes.

"Mom." Qiu Ci ran over, knelt beside the bed, and held her hand tightly: "Mom, I'm back." ”

"It's good to be back." She didn't blame her for saying goodbye, just saying back.

"Mom, are you feeling bad?"

"It's not uncomfortable, it's much more comfortable to see your whole person." Mom said comfortingly. Qiu Ci suddenly hated, how good it would be if he didn't go out for so long, and how good it would be if he came back earlier, but this world is so cruel, if you miss it, you miss it, it's useless to regret, it's useless to be sad, and all that's left is to decorate the imperfect past with memories.

During this time, she didn't do anything, she stayed with her mother all day long, and Qiu Jue often came over, and she was with her all day.

God played a joke on them, the most important woman in Qiu Ci's life left her in this snowy time, except for the reluctant tears in the corners of her eyes, she no longer had the ability to tell others about the money in her heart.

When the moment of death comes, Mom, you should have struggled, and you want to see our group of unfilial children.

Su Xia couldn't cry that day, just screaming for her mother, Qiu Ci looked at the photo in the black frame, and opened her mouth but shed silent tears.

We are born to die! So we are not afraid of death, but only of separation. Su Yinian said with red eyes: "Qiu Ci, you see the woman lying there is a woman I once regarded as an enemy, but now I feel sad because of his departure, do you think I am sick!" Qiu Ci's voice was hoarse: "That woman, she is my mother, the woman who loves me the most in this life, cherishes me the most, and there will never be another person who loves me as much as she does in the future, I ...... Lost her. During the time she lived at home, she often saw Su Xia in a daze in the kitchen, silently chanting: "Mom, I'm hungry, do you have anything to eat?" But no one responded, only the empty house.

Su's father talks less and less every day, and in addition to work and sleeping, he even eats a lot less.

It's just one person missing, but it feels as if there is no soul left, and the rest is just a body like a walking corpse.

When Qiu Ci saw such a home, there was no end in sight to the broken and decaying. On the weekend, she called Wen Ruojin and asked her to accompany her to buy vegetables and cook a big meal for Su Xia, but because of her limited cooking skills, she yelled for Wen Ruojin to help.

It just so happened that she was also idle, and the two of them got busy. I don't know if this meal is too attractive, Su Yinian actually brought Xu Yang over, and I didn't know until today's autumn resignation that the two of them got married.

Married, it seems that she hasn't divorced Lu Fengbai yet. That meal was the warmest in this time, a smile appeared on Su Xia's face, Su's father also said a few more words, Xu Yang said to Su's father: "Dad, our family will have a child soon." As soon as the words came out, the people at the table were shocked, Xu Yang was pregnant!

Su Xia was shocked: "Dad, am I going to be an uncle?" ”

"Seems like so." Su Yinian said. Qiu Ci looked at the lively dinner table, and his heart gradually softened.

After eating, Wen Ruojin pulled her around, Qiu Ci looked at the familiar street, and suddenly sighed, how many times had she dreamed of this place in the past five years, but when she woke up, she found that this place was really far away from her.

And now she feels like stepping here, and she's satisfied.
