Chapter 11 Reconciliation
It is not difficult to hear from my father's words that it seems that he knows the tomb god, and it is by no means just a matter of hearing about it.
But soon I was relieved.
Since he and Qian Zhifu can be called brothers, it must have been Qian Zhifu who told him about me in prison.
Thinking about it, I replied blankly: "Hmm! ”
Dad's tone became softer, and he asked again, "Then have you spoken to him?" ”
I don't know what he wants to ask, but it's rare for my father to be kind to him, and I don't plan to hide it from him.
If so, he said truthfully: "Yes, and I worshipped him......"
Suddenly it occurred to me that my father's most annoying thing was tomb robbing, and I immediately stopped abruptly and looked at my father with some anxiety.
Dad smiled gently, although I rarely saw his smile, but at this moment, this smile still warmed my heart on the slightly pale face.
Dad's eyes were suddenly full of love, and he said casually: "Hehe, just say anything you want." What's the matter, you're still blaming Daddy for keeping you here? ”
I was a little flattered by my father's change in attitude.
But I didn't think much of it, and just replied, "No!" ”
Dad sighed in disappointment, and said in a deep tone: "Yu'er, don't blame Dad, Dad can't help it." If you make a mistake, if Dad doesn't punish you, Dad won't be able to discipline others in the future! ”
I said "oh" as if I understood.
Dad gently grabbed my hand again, and said bitterly, "Yu'er, you have been wronged." Come on, let's go! ”
Daddy's hands were big and white, but they were quite cold, and I was a little surprised.
I was stunned, and I didn't know what my father meant: "Dad, go...... Where to! ”
Dad's kind smile, like the warm sun in winter, made my frozen heart gradually warm.
Dad said, "Silly boy, of course I'm going to see your mother!" ”
My heart was sour, and tears flowed again.
Dad, mother, what heart-warming words!
My father wiped away my tears, said softly, and said, "Your mother has been depressed and sick because of you in the past few years, you should go to see her!" ”
My gratitude began to flood in my father's gentle words, and tears began to rain down.
Dad sighed helplessly, but it was no longer angry and angry, but on the contrary, it was a kind of harmony.
Thinking of my strangeness to this family over the years, and all the grievances, my mother has the greatest maternal love will be relieved, how not to teach me a thousand touches!
I don't know how I left the firewood room, and my mind is full of scenes where my mother has missed me all these years.
There is no better way to express this feeling than tears.
Tears can sometimes be joyful and joyful in addition to sorrow and pain.
It was like a wanderer returning from an outing, returning to his hometown, returning to his mother's arms, and the emotional outburst at this time was far more real and intense than ever.
Even if this encounter is too inexplicable, I think it should be like this, and this is the best vision of life.
Dad watched from the sidelines, with a slight smile on his face, but the coldness in the corner of his eyes flashed away.
It's a pity I didn't see it.
The elder brother's numb expression seemed a little unnatural, as if someone else had robbed him of something and had not returned it yet, so that he could not let go.
The sisters' due coldness gradually became uneasy, and even if they barely managed to squeeze out a smile, it was as far-fetched as paper flowers in the heavy rain.
Only the little sister is good, and she came up to hug me and my mother without any care, and the mother and daughter cried and laughed together.
The wind turned to the clouds, and in an instant it was a sunny day.
Mother's illness has suddenly been cured.
In the evening, my father specially instructed the cook to make a table of sumptuous dishes, which were dazzling and dazzling.
I hadn't eaten anything so good in almost four years, and I couldn't get used to it for a while.
But all the dishes were cold, without a hint of heat.
Although I thought it was strange, I was quickly relieved.
It should have been when my father went to the firewood room to bring me out, and the dishes had already been prepared, so it was cold.
I thought about it and ate it without hesitation.
My father and mother watched me eat, and my brother and sisters sneered contemptuously.
I saw their faces glow an eerie white in the light, and I didn't care.
It's about these years that the family has lived a good life, pampered, and it's not like me, and it's natural for the skin to look whiter.
I also showed them a smile and called out "brother, sister......
The elder brother and sister both nodded indifferently, their expressions full of disdain.
Dad looked indifferent and didn't say much.
My mother was distressed, and from time to time she cared for a few words, and kept stacking the same dish on my bowl.
I said gratefully, "Mother, enough is enough!" ”
The mother just laughed and said, "Not enough, not enough......"
The little sister said with a smile: "Second sister, you must eat more, at least eat all the things you have lost in the past four or five years!" ”
What is lost, what is lost?
I was slightly stunned.
In this world, we can lose a lot of things, but maybe at any time, there is only family affection, but we will never lose it.
The little sister came over again and said mischievously: "If you eat with a bulging belly, my mother likes it!" ”
I held back my tears, forced a smile and served some dishes for my little sister.
The little sister said: "Second sister, don't want it, don't want it, we can't eat it...... We're all fed. ”
She spoke, looking slightly flustered.
I was surprised and said, "Little sister, what's wrong?" What you can't eat? ”
The little sister didn't know how to answer, but her father said naturally: "I haven't seen you all these years, this time I saw you come back, look at your food, aren't we happy!" ”
My mother also said yes again and again.
The little sister turned her head secretly, and a tear couldn't help but drip down.
After dinner, my mother pulled me and was reluctant to let go, and kept asking me how I had come over the years, whether I was bitter, tired or not, wronged or not, and I couldn't wait to understand my life in the past five years clearly.
I touched my mother's hand and found it colder than my father's hand, but I didn't think much about it.
A woman who lives in a secluded place rarely walks around in the sun, so it's not surprising that her skin is cooler.
I was afraid that my mother would be too worried, so I deliberately said that everything has been fine all these years.
But my mother thought that I was a girl wandering alone, and where could I go, and it was inevitable that she would be sad, so she hugged me and couldn't help but cry secretly.
Dad has been sitting next to us and listening to us, and he has always maintained a faint smile on his face that has changed from the normal and is rarely seen.
He watched his wife and children talk in front of him, was his heart full of happiness?
Even the little sister also said that when she was so old, she saw her father smiling the most kindly today!
I knew that my father was not happy about the tomb robbery, so I didn't say a word, and I talked more about interesting things along the way.
Who knows, my father suddenly said: "Yu'er, why don't you tell your mother about those tomb robberies?" ”
The mother said: "Don't listen or don't listen, what is there to say about those things, it's weird!" ”
I don't know why my father suddenly mentioned tomb robbing, and said lightly: "Yes, there is nothing to say about that!" ”
Dad spoke earnestly and said, "Yu'er, now that I am in front of your mother, there are some things that Dad always has to tell you." ”
I looked at my father's heavy expression and couldn't help but be stunned.
I don't know if I touched my father's obscurity, but I was uneasy and said, "Dad, you ...... Say it, Yu'er, listen! ”
Dad thought for a moment, then glanced at the restrained and restless mother, and said: "Yu'er, your behavior has been very strange since you were a child, and you say strange things all day long, at that time your mother and I didn't understand, until you grew up, suddenly ran away from home, what is everything for, and now Dad finally vaguely understands!" ”
My heart was filled with sourness, and I whispered aggrievedly: "Dad, mother......"
My mother took me into her arms, held my hand, and said sadly: "My hard-working Yu'er, I have suffered you all these years!" ”
I only felt that my mother's hand was unusually cold, I didn't feel it at first, but then I held it tightly, and I felt a cold breath penetrating my bones.
I frowned, I wanted to ask, but as soon as I touched my mother's happy eyebrows, thinking about how much pain I had brought to my mother over the years, I didn't know how to speak.
I choked up and said, "Mother, Yu'er is not afraid of hardship, but it makes my mother worried!" ”
Dad sighed and said, "Yu'er, Dad knows that you want to learn how to rob tombs all these years, don't you?" ”
The more I didn't want to mention the topic, my father kept bringing it up, which surprised me a lot.
Dad said unhurriedly: "You have a daughter's family, but you have to live a good life, but you have to learn to rob tombs, Dad knows, there must be a reason for you, isn't it?" ”
My mother was afraid that I would be uneasy, so she hurriedly said: "Yes, Yu'er, what do you have on your mind, you want to tell your mother and father, do you know?" ”
Dad followed up and said, "Yu'er, you have to listen to your mother." What do you think, say it, my father and mother are both from the past, and I have seen more things than you, don't you say? If you have something on your mind, you should say it, so that we can have a discussion and solve it together. I believe that nothing can be difficult for our father and daughter. ”
Dad's tone was soft, full of care and encouragement.
This is the first time I have heard my father's warmest words.
Because in my impression, my father has always been a cold image, even if the children are happy and the husband sings with the wife, he will never show his gentleness too much.
I looked at my father, and I was very touched by the love of his face in the light.
Even the resentment against him at the beginning was swept away, and even made me think, maybe this is the true face of my father?
I said, "Dad, I'm sorry for you and my mother, don't you blame me?" ”
Dad smiled and said, "Silly boy, what's not strange about this, you do this, there must be your reasons, whether it's right or not, let's go through it together, there is always a solution!" ”
I saw that my father said this, and it was not easy to shirk it if I knew it, and besides, my father didn't blame me, what else did I have to hide?
The mother also said: "Yu'er, look, when did your father be so kind, didn't he?" Your father is like this, he usually looks cold, but he actually cares about you very much! ”
The pure and kind guidance of my father and mother swept away the unhappiness I had suffered these days, and the happiness in my heart slowly soaked my body that I had not received warmth for a long time.
Even if it's belated happiness, I think it's enough.
The lights flickered in the breeze, and there was a beautiful singing voice from my sister outside, singing the same song, but at this moment, it sounded no longer so poignant.
So, I had any more concerns, and finally told them the truth about my past life.
Even if she knew a little, her mother was still shocked to hear it, and she would be unconscious for a long time.
Dad is still so unfazed.
After all, he is a person who deals with big things, no matter when, he is very calm and calm.
Many people can't believe the story of his past life, and it can be seen from his expression that he completely believes it, without the slightest doubt that I am lying.
My mother was still holding me, and if it wasn't for my father's side, she would have cried again.
I only felt that my mother's body was cold, so I couldn't help but shudder, I was afraid that my mother would see my discomfort, so she was full of joy.
Dad paced back and forth in the room, pondered for a while, and said: "Yu'er, I didn't expect what you said when you were a child to be true, it seems that you are indeed a loving and righteous person, Dad blames you!" ”
I looked at my dad in some astonishment, but I didn't react for a while.
I never thought that my father would apologize to me, I was very flustered for a while, and quickly said, "Dad, you ...... You don't ...... Don't say that, it's your daughter who is sorry for you! ”
Dad sighed and said: "You didn't feel sorry for me, you did the right thing, Du Sanniang has a life-saving grace for you, and you should repay it, this is the duty of a human being......"
The mother also looked at her father in surprise, quite resentful: "What are you talking nonsense, this is all the last life, what else can not be reported, besides, how can Yu'er be with such a woman?" ”
Dad said, "What do you know?" The woman's view. ”
My father looked at me again and asked, "What about what happened next?" ”
I didn't understand why my father suddenly cared so much about my affairs, and then said: "Later, I followed Ah San and traveled all over the world to rob tombs, just to find Du Sanniang. It's a pity that there has been no trace for more than five years. Later, I didn't expect to be betrayed by Ah San again, but fortunately, my father rescued him, and the child finally survived. ”
Speaking of which, I feel like I'm dreaming.
Dad nodded thoughtfully and said, "This may also be the fate of you and my father and daughter." What about the tomb god that Qian Zhifu said? ”
The mother only thought that the tomb god was the spirit in the tomb, and couldn't help but tremble: "What, what tomb god?" ”
I said, "Mother, don't be afraid, the tomb god is a person, a very good old man!" ”
Although the mother was half puzzled, she also relieved herself.
Dad said again, "You said that you worshipped the tomb god as a teacher, so ...... So he told you...... Did you say anything? ”
I shook my head, sighed and said, "No, he only told me some tips for tomb robbing, and he was going to teach me more in the future, but unfortunately the next day, he ...... He was stabbed to death! ”
The thought of the death of the tomb god makes my heart very sad.
Dad couldn't help but feel sorry when he heard it.
The atmosphere was a little sad for a while.
After a while, my father asked me again, "He didn't tell you anything else?" ”
I looked at my dad blankly, not knowing what he meant, and said, "What is Dad referring to?" ”
Dad thought for a moment and looked at me with an inquiring look: "For example, the information on tomb robbery, I am referring to the most famous tomb of Qin Shi Huang in ancient times, or the tomb of Cao Cao, it is said that the tomb god has already surveyed its location, but he does not dare to dig it out.
I was a little surprised, my father seemed to know a lot, but I didn't have the slightest suspicion, thinking about the ability of the tomb god, my father's words were naturally true.
I said, "These tomb gods didn't tell me. ”
Dad sighed in disappointment: "Really? ”
I nodded and said, "It's true!" ”
For some reason, my father became suspicious and stared at me tightly, his eyes full of coldness for a moment.
I was slightly startled, and I didn't know how my father could suddenly look at people like this.
The mother did not notice this subtle change, and she was still immersed in the joy of the mother-daughter reunion.
The night was deep, and there was no sleep.
In the originally harmonious atmosphere, there was a sense of uneasiness.
Dad changed his tone and said coldly: "Dad actually wants to help you find Du Sanniang, but you can't lie to me." ”
I was in a hurry and hurriedly said, "Dad, I didn't lie to you!" ”
Dad snorted slightly, and muttered to himself: "Impossible, impossible, I know him, he has no hope for life, and he is unwilling to bury such a big secret in the ground for a long time." ”
My mother and I looked at my father blankly at the same time, I don't know why.
Dad seemed to sense his gaffe and disguised it with a shallow smile.
However, after many years of tomb robbing, although I have not been able to learn the essential techniques, I still have a keen sense of observation.
From my father's eyes, I realized that my father had a part of his mind.
As for what is going on, I don't know yet.
The doubts in my heart only lingered for a moment, and I was relieved to think that maybe my father really wanted to help me.
But soon, my father's words punctured my beautiful idea.
Dad frowned, pondered for a while, and said, "Yu'er, are you still blaming your father, so you refuse to tell the truth?" ”
I was afraid that my father would misunderstand, so I hurriedly said, "No, Dad, I really didn't lie to you!" ”
Dad sneered: "Then you have a long talk with the tomb god at night, maybe you didn't say anything?" ”
I looked at my father's changing face, and I was a little scared, and I didn't know what to say before he would believe it.
The mother didn't know what was going on, and seeing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, she hurriedly said to her father: "Fifth brother, what's wrong with you, this will scare my daughter's ......"
Father's eyes glared, and my mother immediately lowered her head.
Dad snorted and said, "You guys...... What do you know? Do you really think your father is so unkind? ”
With a long sigh, my father's face turned even paler, and he sighed repeatedly: "That's it, that's it, my Yan family is about to have a catastrophe!" ”
My mother and I were both taken aback, looking at my father, who suddenly seemed to be old, and asked, "Dad, Dad, what's going on?" ”
Dad smiled miserably, looking extremely desperate, he took out a piece of paper from his arms, and handed it to me tremblingly: "Look, look at ......"
