On that day, the weather was very cold, there were still snowflakes outside the window, and the cold wind blew through again and again, driving the dilapidated doors and windows to 'bang'.

An angry voice came from the alley—

"Take your money and get out of here! I'm not as shameless as you think! Lena kicked the middle-aged man out and closed the door angrily.

Dai, who was not yet five years old, sat on the bed obediently, looking at her mother with a look of hope.

"Mom, why hasn't Dad come back yet?"

The immature child's voice sounded, which softened Lina's expression, she knelt on the bed, gently hugged Dai'er into her arms, and whispered: "Dai'er, Dad has gone to a far away place and can't come back for the time being." Don't worry, you've got your mom with you! ”

"Mom, Daile is so hungry!" Dale whispered.

Lena hurriedly stood up and rummaged around the room for a while, before remembering that the last bit of food had been eaten yesterday.

What to do? Looking at the pale Dai, Lena lost her square inch, in fact, she hadn't eaten anything in days, and her whole body was already very weak.

She couldn't help but be a little irritable, why was she born in a small aristocratic family, she learned some etiquette, communication and the like since she was a child, and even ordinary sewing and cooking were not very good, and it was difficult to find a job to support her family in this Hidden Moon City.

Occasionally, someone is willing to help her, but also because they have a bad idea of her beautiful appearance, and soon they show an ugly face, and some people even directly take money to talk about 'trading'.

The good upbringing that Lena received since she was a child made her not allow herself to do this, and once she falls, not only herself, but also Dai, who grew up in such an environment, will also have a dark future.

The honor of the family cannot be destroyed in her hands, and it is better to die with dignity than to live in such humiliation.

is like his stubborn father, who refuses to leave even if the family is facing extinction.

Thinking so, suddenly, Lena's eyes fell on the drawer next to her, and her eyes gradually became dull, the contents of the drawer were all left behind by her deceased husband, and Lena remembered that there was also a packet of poison used to make traps.

With trembling hands, she slowly pulled open the drawer, then took the packet of white powder out and spread it out on the table.

Then Lena just stared blankly.

Her pupils became more and more dilated, and after a long time, a hint of madness finally appeared, and she took a glass of water and poured the deadly powder into it.

Dale opened her big beautiful eyes and quietly looked at her mother's back, in her eyes, her mother must be making something to eat, and her stomach will not be hungry when she finishes eating.

Lena picked up the cup and walked over to Dale, who gently stroked her daughter's pretty blonde hair and kissed her deeply on the forehead.

"Drink, you won't be hungry if you drink it!" Lena handed the cup over.

Suddenly, there was a crisp knock on the door, and Lena was startled, and instantly came to her senses, and her eyes returned to some looks.

Oh, my God!

Only then did she realize what she was doing! Lina's face turned pale and she threw the cup out of her hand.

The ceramic cup fell to the ground and shattered in an instant, and the clear liquid spilled on the wooden board, raising wisps of smoke, which looked shocking.

"Who is it?"

Lena stood up and walked to the door, didn't the man give up and returned?

She opened the door, only to find that the snow outside had stopped at some point, and the bright sun had pierced through the clouds and poured down, smearing the whole world with a layer of gold.

This kind of sunlight makes people feel a burst of warmth.

A cute little girl who looked about the same age as Dale and looked like she was carved in pink stood in the doorway, and behind her stood an equally young boy, who looked to be in his teens.

The faces of the two are very similar, and they should be biological brothers and sisters.

"Auntie, give!" The little girl tiptoed and smiled and handed a delicate basket to Lena, the basket seemed to be a little heavy, making the little girl feel a little struggling, and her little face was flushed with too much force.

Lena took the basket blankly and looked down at it, it was filled with some snacks and fruit.

Her brother spoke: "Hello, we just moved next door, we came to visit you, please take care of you in the future!" My name is An Xu, and this is my sister An Xin. ”

The boy speaks unnaturally and looks very shy.

Only then did Lena see that he was dressed as a standard mercenary, and the simple leather armor he was wearing had almost worn off the color of the surface, and even his shoes were torn several pieces of skin.

Even so, his whole person looks very energetic, and his handsome face, which has not completely faded from childishness, is full of vitality.

The boy is a mercenary? How could it be, he was still so young! Lena was a little shocked.

After listening to her brother's introduction, the little girl raised her head and added seriously: "It's a happy heart!" ”

"It's a gratifying joy! Didn't I just teach you? An Xu pinched her sister's face and said dotingly.

An Xin took her brother's hand, frowned and fell into thought, obviously she couldn't tell the difference between the two words.

"Ahh Thank you, come in and sit down! Lena suddenly came to her senses, as the master of her own rudeness, and quickly wanted to invite the brother and sister, but as soon as she pushed open the door, she suddenly remembered that the house was still in shambles, and the broken cups were still scattered on the ground.

The little girl looked curiously through the doorway, and happened to see Dai'er sitting on the bed, and her eyes lit up.

Encountering An Xin's gaze, Dai'er's eyes dodged, and she hid timidly to the side, covering herself with a quilt.

"This is my daughter Daer, she's a little scared!" Lena said embarrassedly, she wanted Dai'er to come out to say hello, but thinking of her daughter's character, she had to give up.

"Brother, auntie, their family is so beautiful!" An Xin leaned next to her brother and quietly envied.

When Lena heard this, she couldn't help but smile slightly, and the haze in her heart seemed to dissipate a lot. She squatted down, looked at the little girl and said, "An Xin is also very cute, she must be a big beauty when she grows up!" ”

Hearing Lina's praise, An Xin smiled, such a beautiful aunt praised herself, then she must be very beautiful.

"I won't bother today, the weather is fine, and I have to go to work in a while! Come back next time! An Xu responded politely, and then took her sister's hand: "An Xin, say goodbye to your aunt!" ”

"Goodbye, beautiful auntie!" An Xin said goodbye reluctantly, it seems that she really wants to play more.

Lena watched the brother and sister slowly leave, and their conversation sounded in the alley.

"Brother, can I go to play with Daile in the future, she is so cute!"

"Yes, but you have to be well-behaved and not cause trouble to others, you know?"

"Hmmm! Got it! Brother, where are we going? ”

"Let's go visit the master in Nancheng District, haven't you always wanted to go to school, you must be polite when you see him later, don't ......"

The sound grew quieter and quieter until it faded away, but Lena was still standing in the doorway, staring in the direction they had left.

The smiles of the siblings kept in her mind, what a positive and optimistic expression, even though they were wearing the same shabby clothes and living a hard life, but they were still full of confidence in life.

A teenager at such a young age can hold up the hope of a family, why can't he himself?

In the sunlight, Lena's eyes became more and more determined, and she walked quickly into the room and placed the basket in front of Dale.

"Dai'er, let's eat something first, mom will go out to find a job in a while, I won't let you go hungry in the future, trust mom!"

"Well, Mom, you can eat some too-"

……

Lena had a dream, and a dream of a scene that was very deep in her memory, and it was not until all the images receded like a tide that she slowly opened her eyes.

An Xin was reciting what she had learned in school in front of the table, the door was open, An Xu was squatting on the stove at the door cooking something, and the air was filled with an enticing fragrance.

It's still this brother and sister.

The little girl has grown up, not only more and more beautiful, but also more and more kind, like an angel!

The boy also gradually faded his immature atmosphere, became tall and straight, and the whole person looked mature and stable, giving people a full sense of security.

Lena examined herself carefully and found that she was not feeling any discomfort, her clothes were in perfect condition, and Dale was lying by her side unharmed!

The picture of imaginary despair did not appear, as if everything that happened yesterday was a dream.

Yes, they must have saved themselves again, and only they will pull themselves back from the edge of the cliff again and again.

She bit her lip and looked at the brother and sister in front of her blankly, but her eyes were no longer the complicated and guilty look she had before, but clear, as if she had left all the burdens behind.

She wants to repay them slowly with this life, even if she can only do some trivial things, but this is Lina's most sincere heart, as long as she does her best, she will not regret it.

Because it was An Xu and An Xin, they taught her how to respect life.

"Awake?" An Xu suddenly saw Lina sitting up, and then quickly took out a bowl of hot soup with her hands and feet and brought it to Lina's side.

"Drink some soup first to fade away the cold, I lay on the floor for so long last night, be careful of catching a cold!"

"Thank you." Lena carefully took the bowl handed by An Xu and took a sip gently, which was delicious and warm, making the whole body and mind comfortable.

"You're welcome, didn't you say that? We're already a family! An Xu smiled and turned around again.

Lena tightened the bowl in her hand, a charming smile on her lips.

"Yes!"
