Chapter 16: An An

Zhong Yu ran all the way, his steps were eager to be faster, faster, he couldn't wait to see his mother, and wanted to tell her that when the aunt brought the doctor, her illness would be completely cured. When he was about to run to the gate of the side courtyard, Zhong Yu saw Zhong Bai pulling Zhong Lei over in the opposite direction, followed by Ah Feng and Lao Li. Zhong Baishi saw Zhong Yu standing opposite, so he pulled Zhong Lei and walked over quickly, and took Zhong Yu's hand with concern in his eyes, "Ah Yu, you're frightened." Don't be afraid, Aunt is here, take me in to see your mother. ”

Zhong Bai led Zhong Yu step by step to Qiu An'an's bed, and Zhong Yu could see Zhong Lei's impatience through his own peripheral vision. yes, I was brought here as soon as I got out of school, and I can't go out to play, so I must be unhappy. There was a very light voice behind him, and Zhong Yu didn't reach the footsteps of Ah Feng who was following Zhong Bai's family. Zhong Yu subconsciously turned his head, only to see Ah Feng quickly cover his side face and lower his head when he realized that he was looking at him, and his cautious appearance completely changed. Probably, in front of Zhong Bai and Zhong Lei, it should be different from in front of a second son like himself.

Zhong Bai took a few steps, suddenly stopped, looked at Qiu An'an slightly, and patted Zhong Yu's head with a smile, "Ah Yu, don't be afraid." Your mom she's just asleep, not uncomfortable. "Auntie, my mom is really sick, she has been coughing for a long, long time. Auntie, let someone go to the doctor to see my mother. Zhong Yu held Zhong Bai's arm, as if grasping the straw that saved his life.

Zhong Baishi patted Zhong Yu's shoulder to comfort him, and then took a few steps forward alone, looking at Qiu An'an's face. I saw that Qiu An'an's face was pale and frightening, and he couldn't find any blood, and his white and cracked lips were no longer lifeless. Zhong Baishi took a few steps forward, wanting to raise her hand and wipe Qiu An'an's sweat with a handkerchief, but she hesitated. However, in the end, Zhong Baishi still did not wipe Qiu An'an's sweat, but cooled down the warm and soft gaze in his eyes, patted Qiu An'an's face, and returned to her original position after she woke up.

When Qiu An'an saw these people in front of her, she roughly understood something, especially when she saw the coldness in Qiu Bai's eyes that seemed to be unprecedented, she became more like a child who made mistakes, "Sister." I'm sorry, I was a little uncomfortable before, and I wanted to lie down for a while, but I fell asleep before I knew it. You've come to see me. Zhong Bai's eyes did not fluctuate, and even his gaze became more and more cold, but he still spoke gently, "I know that An'an, your health has not been very good recently, but the master has just left, and you are sick, which really makes me don't know what to do." An An, are you alright? "Sister, I'm fine." Qiu Bai's word by word, hiding needles in the cotton, Qiu Anan understood what he heard, and he also knew what kind of answer he should give.

"Since it's okay, I don't think I need to ask a doctor." A meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Zhong Bai's mouth, "An An, you have a good rest, it will be fine soon." Since you're fine, I'll take Lei'er back first. Zhong Baishi was about to turn around, but Zhong Yu refused to give up and stepped forward to grab her, "Auntie, it's still ......" Zhong Baishi gently moved Zhong Yu's hand away, and still smiled lovingly at him, but the smile inadvertently faded a little, "Ah Yu, you are also a little man." A man can't make a big fuss about everything, that's the habit of his daughter's family, don't learn it. Didn't your mom just say it's okay? Your dad just left, and Auntie still has a lot to do, and if you don't take care of it well, your dad will be angry when he comes back. ”

Zhong Yu knew that Zhong Bai's words were equivalent to the life-saving straw he was holding completely disappeared in his hands. Zhong Yu turned sideways, looked at his weak mother on the bed, and said to himself with tears in his eyes, "Mom, don't be afraid, I'll go find you a doctor." With that, Zhong Yu turned around, brushed Zhong Bai's arm, and ran forward step by step, towards the door. Seeing this, Zhong Lei also quickly trotted forward a few steps, stretched out a foot and tripped Zhong Yu. Seeing Zhong Yu lying on the ground, Xiao Zhong Lei suddenly laughed, "Haha, I fell and ate." Ah Yu, are you stupid? My mom is a big wife, your mom is a little wife, you all have to listen to my mom. ”

Seeing Zhong Yu fall down in such a mess, Lao Li stepped forward to help him up. Lao Li has been in the Zhong family for many years, and he also knows that his identity should not be too talkative, but seeing that Zhong Yu is really pitiful, he still can't help but open his mouth to Zhong Bai's family, "That's it, madam, if you can't get busy, let me go." "Aren't you still going to help me deliver a letter to my master?" Zhong Bai's tone was not aggressive, but it gently cut off all the possibilities that Lao Li could help. "Yes." Lao Li bent down helplessly in response, and when he straightened up, Lao Li's gaze inadvertently passed by Ah Feng behind Zhong Bai's family, so Lao Li thought of a new way, "Ah Feng, you go and go to the doctor." ”

Zhong Yu's almost desperate heart couldn't help but ignite new hope when he heard the word "Ah Feng" in Lao Li's mouth, and he knew that Ah Feng would definitely help him without hesitation. However, Zhong Yu's hope, which had just been ignited, was dashed in an instant. I saw that Ah Feng was stunned for a moment after hearing Lao Li's words, and walked a few steps forward cautiously, then stopped and looked at Zhong Bai's again, "I'...... I, listen to my wife. "Don't go." Zhong Baishi blurted out three words neatly, just three words, enough to dominate all of Ah Feng's thoughts. "Yes." Ah Feng responded, obediently took a few steps back and returned to his original position, all in one go, also neatly.

Zhong Baishi took a few steps forward, and his instantly cold gaze approached Qiu An'an's fragile and weak pupils, "Sister, when you were by my side before, I pitied you for being a hard-working girl. It's not like other girls who think they're as delicate as everyone's young lady, and they always complain about it. But An An, why are you not as tough as before after following the master? Isn't it, I didn't treat you well, but it made your body weaker......" Qiu Anan endured his cough, for fear that his appearance would cause Zhong Bai's displeasure, "No, sister, it's Ah Yu, this kid is timid, and he was scared when he saw me coughing a few times." I really don't have much ......."

"Since my sister is fine, my sister will leave first." Zhong Bai's gaze softened again, and a smug smile inadvertently flashed on the corner of her mouth that even she didn't notice. After saying that, Zhong Bai and the group turned around and prepared to leave, only Lao Li was still standing in place and watching worriedly. Seeing Lao Li standing in place and looking at Zhong Yu, Zhong Bai suddenly stopped and coughed lightly, "Lao Li, you will attract gossip to the second wife." It was another sentence hidden in the needle, Lao Li could only turn around helplessly and leave with Zhong Mu and his party.

Only An An's mother and son were left in the room. Zhong Yu rushed to Qiu An'an's side, "Mom, Auntie has always loved us very much, how can this be?" Zhong Yu held Qiu An'an's hand, but still didn't give up, "Mom, you wait for me." I'll go find you a doctor. "Don't go to the rain." Qiu Anan grabbed Zhong Yu's hand tightly and refused to let go of him, "You accompany Mom, let Mom, look at you more......" Qiu Anan's face was like a blank paper, she raised her other hand tremblingly, caressing Zhong Yu's face, "What should I do?" What will happen to my rain if I'm gone...... I'm sorry Yu'er, my mother let you be born in this rich family, but let you be a child born to a concubine, I'm sorry. Yu'er, when you grow up, you must not be looked down upon like your mother. I'm sorry, my mother hurt you, I shouldn't have taught you not to fight, I shouldn't, I shouldn't......"

Qiu An'an's voice became smaller and smaller, and it became more and more difficult to breathe, "Yu'er, you remember, with the wealth of the Zhong family, there are countless gold boxes and countless silver boxes, but in the entire Zhong family, there is only one rosewood box, and the things in it are the Zhong family's family business, the Zhong family's belongings, and the things that the Zhong family regards as their lifeblood." With it, you will never be bullied again. If my son could have that box, I would be blind. Also, you must firmly remember today's events and the grievances we have suffered. I don't want you to be as weak as your mother, and I don't want you to be as miserable as your mother. From now on, you have to keep in mind that no matter how good the people around you are, few will be sincere, and you can't easily trust anyone, let alone let others easily know what you are thinking...... As long as the person who is sorry for you is your enemy, you must not be merciful to your enemy, once you are soft-hearted, you may die at his hands......"

"Well, I remember." Zhong Yu nodded desperately with tears in his eyes. Slowly wiping away the tears from the corners of his mother's eyes, Zhong Yu's moist eyes gradually disappeared the helplessness just now, and became invisibly determined, "Mom, I must remember it firmly." Auntie, big brother, and Ah Feng...... They're all sorry for you, they're all my enemies...... I remembered them all. ”

"And ...... An An is not her mother's real name. Qiu An'an grabbed Zhong Yu's hand and gradually lost his strength, but he still tried to hold it, as if he was grasping the most cherished and reluctant baby in this world, "Mother's real name is Qiu Yunwen, because your grandmother thinks that your mother's name will Kefu, so she changed it to An An." Except for your uncle, your father, your aunt, and your dead grandmother, no one knows Mom's real name. I want my son to remember my real name, and when I think of the words "Qiu Yunwen", I also think of my miserable life, Yu'er, when you grow up, you must avenge your mother...... I, angry that I am in this magnificent mansion, but I am like a cattail grass to be slaughtered, angry with my indisputable body...... If I die...... But I will only call my son helpless......"

Qiu An'an closed his eyes. At this moment, it was raining heavily outside the window, and the Milky Way was pouring down, covering all the sounds, the wind, the cicadas, and the cries of the bell rain in an instant......

After Qiu An'an's death, although Zhong Bai's funeral arrangements for him were really simple and hurried, he was also thoughtful in face. There doesn't seem to be much in the Zhong family who have any opinions on Qiu An'an's overly simple and hurried future, after all, Qiu An'an is not a wife, so it is not suitable for him to be in a good place. On the day of Qiu An'an's burial, Zhong Bai's tears were sad, and tears kept flowing, reflecting in Zhong Yu's eyes, and there was no way to distinguish between true feelings and falsehoods. However, whether the true feelings or the fake intentions, they all disappeared at this moment not long after.

On this day, it was the day when Zhong Tiande returned home, and Zhong Bai's family was busy arranging to greet him. Zhong Bai's smile was joyful, Zhang Luo was methodical, and that smile was reflected in Zhong Yu's eyes, which was enough to brightly render the atmosphere of the entire Zhong family. Zhong Yu only felt magical, it seemed that his mother's bones were not yet cold, but the Zhong family was really quickly renovated by Zhong Bai's smile, it seemed that the person named Qiu An'an had never existed. Here, there is no breath of her, no voice of her, no tears of hers, and no resentment of her...... Nothing, disappear cleanly......
