Chapter 5: Seeing My Mother Again

I never imagined that I would see my mother again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

I quietly let my mother gently lift me up from the bed, and drank the decoction spoonful by spoonful under her gentle gaze, and my hand was tightly clasped around her arm, as if in the next moment, my hand was foaming.

I stared at my mother closely, the tears that were already rolling in my eyes blurred my vision, and she was the only one in the world.

I hugged her waist and buried my head deep in her chest, "Mother, mother, I really want to ......", the word "you" is still lingering in my tongue, and a very thin voice accompanied by a touch of shadow broke into the room.

"Ouch, it's really a mother-daughter relationship, but it's just for you to wash your clothes, and you will faint? I said, the eldest lady's body is really weak! ”

Although the woman was richly dressed and generous, the contempt in her eyes clearly lowered her status. That's Erniang, the lady my father married.

I let go of my mother's hand and smiled at Erniang, although I didn't want to, I squinted at her casually, and said with a smile: "It's really a blessing for Erniang, Xiaosang's body has always been tough, and now he hasn't left, Erniang is really a living bodhisattva in the family." ”

She spat disdainfully and said indignantly: "We'll see! With that, he slammed the door and left. The small room finally returned to its original tranquility.

"Sang'er, what do you think?" My mother touched my hair, and her eyes were full of infinite love. Even though he has suppressed his distress, he can't hide the sadness in his eyes.

I held my mother's hand with both hands and behaved coquettishly: "Look, isn't Xiao Sang still here?" Rest assured. When it came to my mother, it must have taken a lot of heart for me to faint. My mother must have slept until now, so hurry up and rest, I'm fine. I quickly sat up to help her.

"But Sang'er, your body still needs to ......" She was obviously a little hesitant, and I smiled again, "Mother, let's hurry up." ”

She hesitated for a long time, but finally nodded, and repeatedly told me to rest more and leave.

Before her figure disappeared, in the bottom of her heart, she finally breathed a long sigh of relief. Coughing slightly, a blood flower bloomed in the palm of his hand. Even though I know that these scenes are far away from me, but now that I have returned to my old place, I think I still have a lot of regrets.

It's better to come than not to come, at least I have a little more time with my mother.

Thinking about it like this, my mood can't help but become much clearer. Quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from his hands, and then put on a suit of clothes and walked out of the room.

Outside, there was snow, and in an instant, the entire white mansion was covered shallowly, and it was white as far as the eye could see. Snowfall overnight, like a thousand pear blossoms blooming, a few plum trees in the yard bloom in the cold, reflected in the snow in the garden, even in the middle of the night, still illuminate the whole garden bright.

This year, I was just fourteen years old.

Father and mother were in the same village when they were young, childhood sweethearts, and when they grew up, their parents made them relatives. Because his father has been aiming for the exam since he was a child, he went to the capital to take the exam after getting married. Fortunately, his father learned to be rich and rich, and he really got famous, so he served as an official in the capital, and the Bai family has been glorious since then.

Although the lintel is rich, the father's heart can no longer tolerate the mother. Within a few years, my father married the youngest daughter of Li Yuanwai's family. When Erniang entered the White Mansion, my life with my mother would never be easy again.

Although her mother came earlier than Erniang, after all, she is a country woman, Erniang is both talented and beautiful, and her father is talented and beautiful, so her mother's status is even more precarious. After Erniang gave birth to a younger sister, my father's heart was even more selfless and my mother, and since then, although my mother and I have a name, they are no different from slaves.

I thought that my mother and I could spend our lives in peace, but the mother and daughter regarded us as a thorn in their side, and often asked us to do some rough work, and even beat and scolded me. And the root of my illness has also taken root unconsciously, and I know that my time is running out. But when I thought that my mother would have to face everything alone in the world, I felt deeply guilty.
