Chapter 24: New Year's Eve (3)

Mu Yuxun recalled that his mother used to love and be considerate to him in every way, and remembered that his mother sitting on the sofa was knitting a sweater with calloused hands, and tears couldn't stop dripping down Wu Wei's back.

"Why do all of you like to lie to me, even my mom... Say what to wait for your daughter's blessings. ”

This night, Wu Wei didn't sleep, and kept by her side, and Mu Yuxun woke up intermittently, repeatedly waking up in his sleep, I don't know how many times I woke up in one night, every time I woke up, I always saw a gentle hand reaching out to me at first sight, sometimes thumb, sometimes bent index finger to wipe away my tears. Then I fell asleep steadily.

A night of guarding, a night of sleeplessness, a night of distress, Wu Wei has a few more silver-white threads of trouble, and his face is a little less immature as a teenager and a little more mature as an adult.

"Wu Wei, I want to wear a sweater knitted by my mother, I want her to see it."

"Okay, Auntie must have been looking forward to it for a long time."

Mu Yuxun looked in the mirror in a sweater for a long time, fascinated, and when a hand was on his shoulder, he seemed to see his mother.

"Yuxun, let's go, uncle and aunt will go back with you." It turned out to be Sheeran putting his hand on her shoulder.

"Thank you, Auntie."

Mu Yuxun sat next to Wu Wei, leaning his head on Wu Wei's shoulder, leaving the city for the first time, he was both scared and anxious in his heart.

"Girl, lie down when you're tired, there's still a long way to go." Wu Yajun cared.

"Thank you, uncle."

Mu Yuxun moved to the side and lay on Wu You's lap, only him, Mu Yuxun is not an outsider, and only Wu Yu is now her only relative.

"Does it still hurt?"

Wu Wei didn't answer, he reached out to her chest and held her hand to reassure her.

"Dad's car is steady, she finally fell asleep, don't wake her up."

Setting off early in the morning, the sun was already in the middle, and Wu Wei slowly shook the sleeping girl.

"Yu Xun, it's going to be ten minutes away."

Mu Yuxun looked out the window, in this poor countryside, the road was gradually difficult to walk, and it began to be bumpy. The car stopped at the gate of a courtyard and said, "It's here." ”

Mu Yuan was still snorting dry tobacco in his mouth, sitting on the threshold, and when he saw us parked at the door, he knocked on the cigarette stick and slowly stood up, a little haggard than before.

"Grandpa Mu, I'm Wu Wei."

"Yes, yes."

Mu Yuxun walked out of the car, his eyes were still a little red and swollen.

"He is Aunt Mu's father, your grandfather." Wu Wei whispered into her ear.

Mu Yuxun walked forward and bowed to Mu Yuan, "Grandpa, I'm Mu Yuxun." "Didn't introduce myself too much.

"You are Mu Yuxun, come into the house."

"Old woman, the girl's daughter is here."

"Grandma." Mu Yuxun also saluted.

The old people used to hate the girl named Mu Yuxun, because their daughter divorced her husband's family for her and cut off contact with her family, which caused them to suffer a lot of discussion in the countryside. But with Mu Shengnan's departure, Mu Yuxun has become a continuation of Mu Shengnan, and he has come to this world as a proof.

The old man took out all the inventory that he was going to leave for the New Year, and entertained the girl who had hated her for the first time for seventeen years, and her granddaughter, who had nothing to do with them.

"Young man, did you give your mother? My daughter's debt. ”

"Well, there it is."

"My daughter has been talking about it, and she still owes your mother money." It turned out that the dollar was owed as gift money, and this owe was owed for more than ten years, and it was not repaid until death.

The old man wiped away his tears, "My daughter's debts have been repaid, and Lord Yama will not be embarrassed for her anymore." ”

Mu Shengnan's only debt is only this pair of old men, but what parent will say that their children owe themselves, not to mention that everyone is gone.

Large and small, there are a lot of dishes, and Mu Yuxun has no appetite at all.

Wu Wei handed her a steamed bun, "Eat a little, your mother will watch it, and your grandparents will watch it." ”

"Grandpa, after eating, can you take me to see my mother?"

Grandpa Mu led Wu Wei's family and Mu Yu to find it for twenty minutes, before a field stopped, and a lonely dirt bag was set up in the field, which was Mu Shengnan's final destination.

Mu Yuan took out two white cloth ropes from his pocket and tied one to the top of Mu Yuxun's head, "When your mother leaves, don't have children to send, you go to see the Tao now." ”

The remaining one was clutched in his hand, looking at Wu Wei, not knowing how to open his mouth.

"Can I send Mother Mu?" The old man slowly raised his hand and opened his hand, Wu Wu tied himself to the top of his head, all of which was regarded as wearing linen and filial piety, and the etiquette was incomplete, but it was also considered a heart.

Mu Yuxun knelt in front of the burning paper money, and Wu Wei held the soil in his hand on the side and filled the grave with soil. Mu Yuxun didn't clearly realize until now that the woman who had beaten herself, loved herself, and cared for herself for seventeen years was really gone.

As the flames were extinguished, a cold wind swept up in the withered land, sweeping away all the burning ashes, as if she had received the thoughts of her children.

"Mom, my daughter is gone, I'll come to see you when I'm admitted to college."

At this moment, the grave was not lonely, and a few sparrows landed on it, looking at the backs of the crowd.
