(She was calm, calm as a pine in the wind and rain; She understands it very well, understands it as thoroughly as crystal. )

The frost hits the sycamore, and the autumn wind is swaying. A yellow taxi drove from the city to the mining area, stopped in front of Liu Mian's house, and walked down Jiang Hechuan and Luan Zhu, each holding a cardboard box. Liu Mian's mother, who was cleaning, recognized Luan Zhu at a glance, and smiled warmer than the red sun in the east, "Luan Zhu, come back to see me so soon!" It's good to be back! What are you doing with so many things! ”

Luan Zhu didn't know how to answer for a while, so he stood stupidly.

"Oh, that's right, we'll bring you something back, it's Liu Mian's," Jiang Hechuan took into account Liu Mian's mother's emotions, and didn't finish his words once.

Liu Mian's mother looked at the strange man in front of her, "May I ask who you are?" ”

"My name is Jiang Hechuan, and I am Liu Mian's colleague."

"Oh, it turned out to be Director Jiang, a rare guest! Where's my willow mian? Why didn't she go back? Liu Mian's mother asked as she looked into the distance behind Jiang Hechuan and Luan Zhu, and then looked into the yellow taxi that was still waiting on the side.

"Liu Mian, she," Jiang Hechuan coughed lightly, as if considering the words, "She won't come back today!" ”

Seeing Jiang Hechuan talking in a hurry, Liu Mian's mother, who often deals with bad luck, began to have an ominous premonition, "Liu Mian, she, won't come back!" Can't you come back? Liu Mian's mother couldn't hold back the smile on her face anymore.

"I'm sorry! Auntie, have you watched the TV news? Luan Zhu asked in a cautious whisper.

"The TV was broken for a week. What do you want to tell me? Liu Mian's mother looked at Luan Zhu fixedly.

"Auntie, let's go into the house and sit and talk slowly!" Jiang Hechuan said in an inquiring tone.

"Don't be afraid, let's say, Auntie can still stand." Liu Mian's mother's tone was resolute and encouraging, and it could be seen that she was in a hurry to know the result.

"Auntie, Liu Mian, she had an accident when she went to Charming Valley with me yesterday morning to investigate. After a heavy rain, we drove back, but the road was blocked by rocks..."Luan Zhu lowered his head and explained the whole process of the incident to Liu Mian's mother as if he had confessed a crime.

"Oh, that's it." After Liu Mian's mother listened to Luan Zhu's narration, she did not seek death and life, and did not shout for people in a procrastinating manner. She was calm, calm as a pine in the wind and rain; She understands it very well, understands it as thoroughly as crystal. No fiery rhetoric, no crazy moves. If it is not written in the novel, it will be white overnight if it is hit; There is no one in the movie, and people will not wake up when they hear about sudden changes. This situation surprised Jiang Hechuan and Luan Zhu, who had always thought that the sky would fall, didn't she care about her daughter? No, no, she values her daughter more than her own life; Isn't she afraid of being alone? No, no, how she longed to be in peace. But providence is always unsatisfactory; Heavenly principles are always unreasonable. Regarding this truth, Liu Mian's mother has the deepest experience. Even though there was no dust on her sleeves, she patted her left and right hands alternately, "Come in and sit, please move Liu Mian's things to my room." ”

According to Liu Mian's mother's request, Jiang Hechuan Luan Zhu put Liu Mian's things away, and then came out of the room to sit in the living room.

"Auntie, we can't help Liu Mian, I hope we can help you." Jiang Hechuan took out a cash check from his jacket pocket and handed it to Liu Mian's mother, "Here is a pension of 200,000 yuan, you can take it for the elderly!" If you have any other difficulties in life, come to the office. ”

Liu Mian's mother took the check and put it on the dining table without looking at it. She said in a tone as light as a breeze: "Luan Zhu, do you remember what Auntie told you the day before yesterday?" ”

"I don't dare to forget a word of Auntie's words." Luan Zhubi said respectfully.

"I entrusted Liu Mian to your care, you are derelict in your duty. Now I want to entrust you with one more thing, can you promise me to do it? Liu Mian's mother said to Luan Zhu.

"Auntie just commands, go to the soup and go to the fire, Luan Zhu will not give up!"

"You helped me burn Liu Mian's clothes and bury them in the vegetable garden in front of my house, and I came to burn incense for her every year during the Qingming Festival. My daughter's character is pure and chaste. She pours out her heart to you, and she is your person in life and your ghost in death. Even if you forget her completely, she can't forget you completely. Liu Mian's mother seemed to be tired, paused for a while, and then pointed to the check on the table and said to Luan Zhu: "This is Liu Mian's life money, I can't afford it, please keep it for her." What you use it for, I think Liu Mian supports it, because as long as she is sure to follow you, she will not regret it until she dies. ”

"Mom! I know you're trusting me, and I'll do what you say. I will stay by your side and let you live a happy old age. After Luan Zhu finished the last sentence, he couldn't cry.

"Auntie, the institute is preparing to hold a memorial service for Liu Mian in the afternoon, and the secretary of the municipal party committee and Secretary General Lu will go to mourn in person, can you insist on attending?" Jiang Hechuan asked softly.

"Go, definitely go. How could I not attend my daughter's memorial service? Liu Mian's mother said with a clear attitude, "Director Jiang, you are also worried about Liu Mian's affairs." I'll go with you after lunch here. ”

"No, don't bother Auntie. I have to go back first to make some preparations for the memorial service, and determine the specific time, and the municipal party committee is waiting for my reply. Jiang Hechuan said and stood up, "Auntie, I'll leave first, stay here to have lunch with you, and you can come to the office with him in the afternoon." ”

"It's okay, Director Jiang, you're good to go!" Liu Mian's mother said gently.

"yes, okay." After Jiang Hechuan finished speaking, he went out and sat on Huang's departure.

After Jiang Hechuan left, Liu Mian's mother could no longer hold back the greatest grief of the life of the elderly bereaved daughter, she staggered into the room, lay on the cardboard box containing Liu Mian's clothes, and cried loudly.

"Mom, people can't be resurrected after death, you mourn and change." Luan Zhu persuaded Liu Mian's mother in astringent language. But when I think that people can't be resurrected after death, it means that I have lost my beloved Liu Mian forever. He couldn't help but be sad for a while, and he couldn't help but lie on the other cardboard box containing Liu Mian's clothes, and howled and cried.

Hearing Luan Zhu call his mother several times, Liu Mian's mother didn't feel unfamiliar at all. She thinks Luan Zhu must want to call her mother; I'll definitely call her mom; must call her mother, because she is sure that Luan Zhu is her son-in-law. She believes that although Luan Zhu has not married Liu Mian yet, the two young hearts have long been together.

When Liu Mian's mother was tired of crying, Luan Zhu was also so tired that she didn't cry. In fact, the meaning of crying is not very deep, and it doesn't make much sense to use loud crying to emphasize your pain. Crying only means that you may have been in pain at the time. The pain that really lasts and torments is usually not proved by crying. Therefore, it is better to cry long than to cry shortly; It's better to cry than to cry small; It's better to cry more than to cry less. Or simply don't cry. Because as far as emotional matters are concerned, those who are crying are not as deep as those who are not crying. It's a pity that when many people understand such a simple truth, they are after crying.

"Mom! Don't cry, don't cry your body! Luan Zhu choked up.

"Luan Zhu, we don't cry, crying is useless." Liu Mian's mother sobbed and said.
