Li Xiaoxiao walked out of the office, and the memory inevitably drifted back to that winter ten years ago.

That winter, it was very cold, and my mother had been sick in bed for more than a year.

It was snow-white, and her mother said that she wanted to go out and have a look, originally she thought that it was so cold outside, which was not good for her health, but seeing that her mother insisted, she agreed.

Mom was in a wheelchair, she pushed her mother to walk and walk in the snow, at first, Mom was still talking to her, her tone was very gentle, she said, "Xiaoxiao, Mom can't accompany you anymore, you have to take care of yourself in the future." ”

She looked at her mother at the time, and wondered why she said that, "What do you say, when you get well, we will go to many places, and you said that you will teach me to play the piano and paint." ”

Mom seemed to be smiling at the time, but there seemed to be unconcealed reluctance in that smile.

The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and the footprints behind them were almost invisible, "Xiaoxiao." ”

She heard her mother call her, "I can't hold on." ”

Li Xiaoxiao's heart jumped suddenly, she walked in front of her mother, only to find that her face was so bad, it was so cold outside, but there was sweat oozing from her forehead.

She was scared, she was only eight years old, and she grabbed her mother's hand tightly, "Mom, don't scare me, let's go back, let's go back to the doctor." ”

But at this moment, the hand that was holding her suddenly let go, Li Xiaoxiao lowered her head, suppressed the tears in her eyes, and then raised her head.

I saw my mother's head resting quietly on the back of the chair, but when I looked closely, she was no longer breathing.

Mother's hand slowly became cold, Li Xiaoxiao held her hand again, trying to warm it up, but her hand still slowly became cold.

Big tears fell on the ground, and the wind seemed to be stronger at this time, and the wind raised the snowflakes on the ground, and even the blanket on my mother's lap was blown a little.

Li Xiaoxiao knelt in the snow, and was in a trance for a while, why suddenly, like this?

Li Xiaoxiao raised her head with tears in her eyes, and the wind blew on her face, very cold.

At this moment, Li Xiaoxiao seemed to hear a faint shout, and Li Xiaoxiao looked at the comer.

The person who came was dressed in black and ran towards this side, and he, who was usually calm and unchaotic, also showed a little anxiety at this time.

When he was young, Director Li had a handsome face, and he saw that his face was full of anxiety, and when he ran over, he saw his wife leaning quietly on the back of the chair, as if she was asleep, but he knew that she would not wake up again.

Li Ruhai hugged the person in the wheelchair, and during the whole process, he didn't look at Li Xiaoxiao, who was kneeling on the side.

He hugged her, and as he left, he glanced at her, but his eyes were extremely cold.

Li Xiaoxiao shuddered and went back.

Later, it was the funeral, and in this way, she watched the people around her, and each person had a sad look on their faces, but when she looked closely, she could find the carelessness in her eyes.

Yes, what do they know, in this funeral, the only people who are really sad may be her and her father.

Dad hadn't spoken to her in days, and he just had a cold face every day, in front of everyone.

The funeral ended quickly, and after the funeral, Dad didn't know where to go.

Five days later, my father came back with a smell of alcohol, and he was sitting in his study doing his homework.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, she ran out in surprise, only to see her father holding a wine bottle in his hand, and half a bottle of wine in the bottle, and his father looked at her drunken and said to her, "Come here." ”

She walked over as she said, her father grabbed her arm, and looked at her with cold eyes, "Li Xiaoxiao, you listen to me, you must be better than others, you have to be the best, the best." ”

Li Ruhai muttered, "The best, the best ......"

Li Xiaoxiao stood aside at a loss, and the next morning, Li Xiaoxiao was called up, and from that day on, her father seemed to be back to normal.

After the holidays, she returned to school, and a month later, they took their first exam, she took the second, and she happily went home with her report card to show her father.

He must be happy to see this, she thought.

However, she was wrong.

When she got home, her father looked at her report card and was furious, and she still remembers that he looked at her coldly, "How can you be second, and you deserve to be complacent about such a result." ”

She was stunned, she stood still as her father tore up her report card so hard that pieces of paper flew all over the sky like snowflakes fluttering in that winter.

Since then, he has become more strict with her, he does not allow her to be a little bad, she can't be subservient, she has to be good enough.

It can be said that in her childhood, in addition to studying, she was studying, she was studying when others were playing, and others were praised after the exam, but what was waiting for her was always endless pickiness and scolding.

When she was twelve, she had a test that was the highest in her history, and she wanted to go out and play.

She left her report card in her room, changed her clothes and left.

That day, she went out with her classmates for the first time, and they went to the amusement park, which was the happiest day she had since her mother's death.

In the evening, she returned home and found it dark, as if there was no one there.

She opened the door and went in, turning on the light.

As soon as the lights were on, she saw her dad sitting on the couch with a drink and her report card on the table.

Dad glanced at her, then withdrew his gaze.

At that moment, she suddenly felt an unprecedented panic, she walked up to her father and called tentatively, "Dad." ”

Hearing this, Li Ruhai raised his head, he didn't speak, just took another sip of wine.

Li Xiaoxiao panicked and wanted to explain, "Dad, I'm just, I just want to go out too much, I, I didn't mean to, I won't go out in the future." ”

Li Ruhai threw down the wine bottle, and the wine bottle rolled on the ground a few times and finally hit the side of the coffee table.

Li Xiaoxiao looked at Li Ruhai, but saw him standing up at this time, and after he stood up, he walked straight to her.

"Do you know what you're doing wrong?"

Li Xiaoxiao raised her head, "I, I shouldn't have gone out, I was wrong." ”

However, he didn't listen to her anymore, he just said lightly, "It's good to know that you're wrong, and since you're wrong, you have to accept punishment." ”

After saying that, he raised his hand and hit her, and that was the first time he hit her.
