Chapter 17 The Mother and Daughter of the Liu Family
The warm picture at that time can only be relived by memories, and after looking at it blankly for a while, Yu Qiusu wanted to stand up and walk over, but he only felt a buzzing in his head, and he was dizzy in front of him, so he quickly held on to the door frame.
Seeing this, Liu Yinglan hurriedly came over to support her and said, "What's wrong?" Quick, sit down. ”
She saw that Yu Qiusu was just staring at her clothes, so she said: "Your clothes are torn in several places, my mother said that when it is dry, she will help you mend it and wear it again." ”
"Thank you." Yu Qiusu lowered his eyes, his eyes drooped, staring at the ground, and slowly spit out two words.
Liu Yinglan sat back on her stool, and saw that she was hanging her head and not speaking, so she found a word for herself: "My mother is afraid that you will be alone at home and no one will take care of you, so she will take care of me and stay at home." Actually, I didn't have any playmates since I was a child, and now I feel really good to have you to talk to me. She brushed the bowl and began to clean the red potatoes again, "How about we eat this at noon?" ”
"Hmm." Yu Qiusu still couldn't lift up his spirits, but politely agreed.
Liu Yinglan raised her eyes to see her expression and said, "Your parents must be very good to you, right?" ”
Yu Qiusu was touched by her, and her nose was astringent, that's right, I have a father and mother who love me very much, and two brothers who love me, but I can't see them anymore......
Liu Yinglan didn't hear Yu Qiusu's reply, and muttered to herself: "Just look at your appearance." She washed the red taro in the basin, put it in a bamboo basket, then picked up the basin and poured a basin of muddy water into the vegetable patch to water the vegetables.
Yu Qiusu just sat stunned, and suddenly a bowl stretched out in front of her: "Look at your chapped lips, come, drink saliva." ”
Yu Qiusu looked up and saw Liu Yinglan standing in front of her with a bowl of water, she hesitated for a while, took it in her hand, and saw Liu Yinglan running into the vegetable field again, as if she was looking for something, she couldn't help asking, "Did you drop something?" ”
Liu Yinglan chuckled and said, "No, I'm looking for bugs." ”
Yu Qiusu couldn't help but shudder, and let out a casual sigh, when suddenly a gust of wind blew, she sneezed a few times, and said, "I'd better go in." ”
She put the bowl on the table and went back to her bedroom. Sitting on the edge of the bed, his heart was just empty, and the whole person couldn't lift the slightest energy, and gradually his eyelids became heavy, and he fell asleep on the bed.
When I woke up, I found that I was covered with a quilt, and I knew that it was Liu Yinglan who covered it, and at this time, I smelled a burst of fragrant aroma in my nose, and it gradually floated all over the room, and it turned out to be the fragrance of cooked potatoes.
In an instant, there was a sound of footsteps, and Liu Yinglan walked in, holding a dirt plate in her hand, with five or six steaming red taro on it: "Awake?" I was about to call you. Let's eat red taro! She put the plate on the bed.
Yu Qiusu slept this time, his spirit was much better, and he looked at the plate that was lying on the mattress at random, and said casually: "Be careful of soiling the mattress." ”
Liu Yinglan was stunned for a moment, and said casually: "It seems that you are quite particular," she picked up a red taro and handed it to Yu Qiusu, "Look at our family, except for the vegetable field and the litter of animals that my mother and I carefully cooked, there is nothing in the house, even the mattress is in tatters, just like that, what else is there to pay attention to." ”
Yu Qiusu thought about it, he was used to being natural, but he didn't expect the situation of other people's families. She stopped talking and took the red taro from Liu Yinglan's hand, but soon after taking it in her hand, she quickly withdrew her hand and threw the red taro back on the plate.
Liu Yinglan saw that she kept shaking her hands and blowing, looking like a wolf. He smiled and said, "You're really ...... What a daughter, she can't stand such a hot spot. "I picked one up and began to peel it while blowing on it.
Yu Qiusu was ashamed of what she said, and said: "Where am I the eldest lady, it's just that many things are done by my mother, the nurse and Xiangyun, they are all my closest people." ”
Liu Yinglan said disapprehantly: "Since you have so many relatives, why didn't you take good care of you and let you live alone in a foreign land?" ”
One sentence was asked by Yu Qiusu speechless, and it was difficult to deal with it. She thought of Xiangyun, who was like a sister to her, and turned her back on her, and thought of the nurse's nephew calling her sister on the surface, but secretly discarding herself. Thinking of this, she lowered her head, and the painful feeling of helplessness left her speechless, and the tears began to overflow again, dripping down.
Liu Yinglan saw that this sentence made her so sad, she couldn't help it, she peeled off the skin of the red taro in her hand, blew it for a while, and then handed it to Yu Qiusu and said, "You eat this, this is not hot." ”
Yu Qiu reasoned with her feelings, held back her tears, and when she was in distress, there would be such a pair of kind mother and daughter who were willing to take her in and take care of herself so much, and she was more and more moved in her heart. Taking the hot red taro, she choked up and said, "Thank you...... Thank you......" After the sentence was finished, two lines of tears suddenly slipped down, "You are so good to me, how can I thank ......"
Liu Yinglan saw that she was really pitiful, but she didn't know how to comfort her, so she had to pick up a red taro and urge her: "Eat it quickly, it's not delicious when it's cold." ”
Yu Qiusu was hungry for many days, and then he was so sick that he couldn't eat, so he woke up and only drank half a bowl of soup, but now his spirit is better, his appetite is also open, and the hunger in his stomach is bursting, and he begins to open his mouth to eat. The taste of red taro is sweet, which is a delicacy in the world for Yu Qiusu at this time. She bit the food in her mouth, thinking that she would never be able to share the delicious food with her father and brother again, and tears rolled in her eyes.
"Don't be sad," Liu Yinglan comforted, "When you get better, you can go to your family." ”
Yu Qiusu looked up at Liu Yinglan with teary eyes and said, "I...... I don't have ...... anymore."
"Lan'er......" Before Yu Qiusu finished speaking, Yinglan's mother's voice came from outside the house.
Liu Yinglan put down the red taro in her hand and went out: "Mother, are you back?" If you're tired, sit down and rest. She poured out a cup of hot water and handed it to her mother.
Listening to the intimate dialogue between mother and daughter, Yu Qiusu's sentimentality was added.
Yinglan's mother looked at her well-behaved daughter, and her heart was sweeter than drinking honey. She took a sip of water, suddenly remembered Yu Qiu, and asked, "By the way, how is that girl?" ”
Liu Yinglan said: "Mother, don't worry, she is much better and is eating." By the way, mother, I cooked red taro, mother must be hungry, I will bring it to you. She brought the red taro, brought it to the table, picked up one and peeled the skin for her mother, "It's still hot, mother, eat it quickly." ”
Yu Qiusu heard Yinglan's mother mention herself, and hurriedly walked out, to be honest, she hadn't looked at Yinglan's mother carefully: "Auntie is good."
Yinglan's mother saw her come out and said, "I heard Lan'er say that you are much better, then I will be relieved." Come and sit down. ”
Yu Qiusu hesitated, agreed, approached the table, and sat down according to his words.
Yinglan's mother looked at her with a smile and said, "Look at this child, he really understands the rules." We countrymen don't pay so much attention to it, since you are here, treat it as your own home, don't be restrained. After looking at Yu Qiusu carefully, she couldn't help but praise, "I didn't expect that the clay figure we rescued that day was still such a beautiful embryo." By the way, I haven't asked you where your family lives or who your parents are, so my aunt will send you back. ”
Yu Qiu Su didn't know how to speak, and Liu Yinglan on the side said: "Mother, don't ask, she cries when I mention her family." ”
Yinglan's mother was puzzled: "Child, what's going on?" Tell your aunt, how could you pass out in the rain alone? What about your family? Are you separated from your family? ”
Yu Qiusu just lowered her eyes and didn't say a word, one was really sad and didn't want to mention it, and the other was that she clearly remembered the words of the nurse and couldn't tell the truth to others, didn't Xiangyun Baolu and Brother Dashu abandon themselves because they learned the truth? Not to mention the mother and daughter who have nothing to do with themselves.
