"My father is so heroic, why can't I see him?"

He wanted to ask why they were exiled and never saw their father, who could kill the enemy and protect their homeland, but why he could not protect him and cause them to suffer so much outside.

In the past, when he envied the happy reunion of his family, he asked so innocently, and then his mother did not speak for two days, and he was also cautious and refused to speak again.

The impression of the mother is stoic, even if she suffers, she does not dare to say it easily, and she is extremely strong, just like in the portrait, although she smiles easily, but with an unquestionable taste.

Between the eyebrows and eyes, she looks gentle, has a noble temperament, and is the mother in her impression. Stretched out his hand, took down the painting, rolled it up and hugged it in his arms, asked where the ancestral hall was, and walked forward with heavy steps.

Now he seems to have returned to the way he was when he was a child more than ten years ago, and the portrait in his arms has become a mother, like a mother holding his hand.

The two of them walked down the street, by the bridge, on the road running for three meals, and the mother sewed and washed the clothes for the people, and did any heavy work.

In winter, her hands were frozen, but she was reluctant to buy medicine, so she just endured it and used every penny she saved on herself.

Li Tiezhu lowered his head deeply, never thinking that one day he would be able to find the memories of the past, looking around, pavilions, trees and blue sky.

Is this the home that my mother is talking about? Is he really the general's son? I was more and more puzzled.

He walked slowly, only a few steps before stopping.

When he was a child, his mother would paint countless pictures of his original home, which was more magnificent than any other house in the whole street, and even the trees were a little luxuriant.

The river inside is babbling and has lotus flowers on it. The lotus flowers in summer are delicate, the lotus seeds in autumn are fragrant, and finally the lotus root is dug out when it is ripe, and he will make his favorite lotus root pork rib soup.

Those things that I longed for the most when I was a child, but now almost all of them are found in anyone's garden, and they are exactly the same, and they go all the way along the flower path to a painted bridge.

Looking at the decorative zodiac Li Tiezhu on it, he was stunned and involuntarily walked in front of the rabbit.

Some of the friends said that they were dogs, and some said they were pigs, and he ran to his mother and asked, "What do I belong to?" ”

"You're a rabbit!" Mother said happily.

But he was not happy, "Why are they all tall and fierce, but mine is a bullying rabbit, I want to belong to a tiger!" ”

He stretched out his hands and made a fierce appearance of claws and fangs, but he made his mother laugh.

Mother took his hand, "The rabbit will bite when it is in a hurry, so it is not weak, and the real strong person is respected in the heart, not oppressed on the surface!" ”

Every time she passed by a zodiac, she silently chanted, "Mouse, pig, rabbit!" "My heart shook, and I stood in front of the rabbit, and I really saw that the river was like a silver ribbon, floating among the green trees.

The weeping willows fluttered outside, and the cool breeze blew on the face.

The scene today is exactly what my mother said, and she spoke of every scene with great emotion. Every time I talk about the zodiac, I will mention this jade belt-like river and the surrounding scenery.

Just like my mother said.

He was stunned, as if all he remembered were the years of suffering, but there were faint memories. Yes, this is it.

The hand tightly grasped the rabbit on the jade railing, and his heart was full of thoughts.

He hurried forward, yes, there must be something else.

When he arrived at the ancestral hall, he found an old man with his back muttering to himself.

"Pei Yao, if I didn't go on the expedition twenty years ago, you wouldn't have left me, and our children wouldn't have denied me, why did you leave the mansion in those years, and why did our children pop up out of thin air?"

Li Tiezhu stayed in place for a while, and from Ye Xiaoying's mouth, he knew that it was his mother's name. Why didn't the general know anything about the past, and why did they leave the palace twenty years ago?

I vaguely remember my mother talking about it, because she made a mistake and had to leave the house, he was the only person my mother confided in, thousands of days and nights, my mother said a lot, he was ignorant at that time, and he could remember very little.

"Madame said that you made a mistake that you shouldn't have made, but I just said a few words to you, you left in anger, you wanted to come to the border to find me, and then the accident disappeared, how can it be your fault, all blame me!"

The voice is mournful, and the back seems to be dozens of years old, which makes people feel sympathetic after seeing it.

No matter how much he repented, he couldn't bring his mother back to life, and he was still angry in his heart, if he hadn't made her suffer outside, how could he have lost her memory for many years, and would have become an orphan without a mother early?

He turned around in displeasure.

Suddenly hearing movement outside, the general turned his head and saw Li Tiezhu with a gloomy face, he was stunned for a while, and his face was sneering.

Raise your hand to beckon him in, pointing to the tablet in front of him, "It is your mother who is worshipped, and you come to worship her." ”

With complicated thoughts, Li Tiezhu wanted to leave, but his footsteps involuntarily stepped inside, and his mother's name was in front of him, tears suddenly welled up, and there was a white mist in front of him.

"Mother!" He whispered, and laughter sounded in his ears. It's good that they are laughing and laughing together. They put paper kites in the spring, and the warm sunlight shone on their bodies, warm.

Under the winter sun, his mother hugged him and whispered about the beauty of his original life, telling anecdotes, how happy he was at that time.

The past is like a tide, and all of them come flooding up.

The general looked at him with teary eyes, and when he was sad, there was a faint shadow of Pei Yao, unconsciously reaching out to him, grabbing his strong arm, and his heart was moved.

He sighed and said, "It's all my fault, I didn't take good care of you two......"

Li Tiezhu has been indulging in it, being so close to the general, there is a trace of arrogance in his heart, but looking at him in front, he did not reject it, but carefully looked at it, whether it was like when he was a child.

In the end, he shook his head, and his impression of his father was tall and mighty, like a big tree, able to protect everyone, not like today's old man, with his back bent and old face.

I only feel lost in my heart.

The general cried: "Protect the people in the world, but you can't protect your wife and children, as time goes by, you are the only one by your side." ”

The white horse passed by, and decades passed, and the hero was dying, how could it be what he imagined before? Blinking his eyes, forcing back his tears, and looking at the general, he saw the remorse and love of being a father.
