Chapter 22: The Wandering Self
Mengqiang's mother's condition seems to be very serious, because no matter how Mengqiang calls his mother, she doesn't have the slightest reaction when she is unconscious.
This is a bad dream, and Aunt Yan on the side is also worried.
Both of them looked forward to Uncle Luo's early return.
After the two waited for a long time, a middle-aged man with a beard walked into the residence of Mengqiang's mother and son.
This middle-aged man is Uncle Luo, who ran to find the Dream family. It's just that Uncle Luo, who was supposed to be anxious, was more guilty and uneasy at this time in addition to the anxious look on his face.
"Brother Luo, are people here?" But the worried Aunt Yan didn't notice Uncle Luo's face, she just wanted to know when the Dream Family Soul Master, who could treat Mengqiang's mother, would come.
Looking at Meng Qiang's eager and expectant look, Uncle Luo deliberately avoided Meng Qiang's gaze, he lowered his head, he wanted to say something but seemed to be unable to say anything.
"Brother Luo, tell me quickly, when will they be able to come over?" Aunt Yan saw Uncle Luo's movements, and became even more anxious.
"I ......" Uncle Luo listened, but he stopped talking, shook his head, and sighed deeply.
Even Aunt Yan, who was bent on caring about Mengqiang's mother's illness, seemed to suddenly understand something at this time, she stared at Uncle Luo firmly and asked in disbelief, "You mean...... No one will come?"
After hearing this, Uncle Luo nodded with difficulty for a long time, and then shook his head and sighed incessantly.
"How is that possible! Didn't Brother Luo tell them how serious Sister Yao's condition was?" Aunt Yan kept calling Mengqiang's mother "Sister Yao", which not only seemed cordial, but also avoided the embarrassment of Mengqiang's mother who was unwilling to reveal her real name.
"It's not that I didn't say it, I said it all...... But what's the use of saying it? They ......" When he said this, Uncle Luo looked at Mengqiang on the side again, as if he was worried about something, and swallowed what he wanted to say again.
"No! Sister Yao's illness can't be delayed like this any longer...... I'll go and say, I'll go to the steward, but I can't do it, I'm ...... I'll go find the sect master!" Aunt Yan obviously hasn't given up yet, in her opinion, no matter what, she has to find someone to help Mengqiang's mother cure her illness first.
But before Aunt Yan walked out of the cave door, she was stopped by Uncle Luo, "I've tried it all, do you think I don't want to find someone to cure Sister Yao's illness?" But before I finished speaking, I was blasted out by the steward, as for the sect master...... Is the sect master a subordinate like you and me who can see him if he wants?"
Aunt Yan knows Uncle Luo, she is really good-hearted, if he says so, she must have just humiliated herself in the past.
At this moment when Aunt Yan was stunned, Meng Qiang, who had been silent on the side, stood up at this time and said to Uncle Luo and Aunt Yan: "I'll go, I can try to see the sect master!"
Uncle Luo and Aunt Yan looked at Mengqiang's resolute and stubborn eyes, and they couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in their hearts.
The two of them understood too well that Mengqiang's life with his mother in the Mengjia was too hard! Mengqiang, the son of the sect master, not only did he not enjoy the cultivation resources in the sect, but even his living standard was not comparable to that of a subordinate of the Mengjia!
Uncle Luo and Aunt Yan don't know why this is the case, but the two of them know that a child who has never seen his father has been living in an environment of ridicule and humiliation, and can still persevere in his dreams.
How strong that must be!
And Mengqiang is just a six-year-old child!
Meng Qiang spoke, turned his head and looked at his mother lying on the kang, Meng Qiang didn't cry, now even the tears are not flashing in his eyes.
Just quietly, looking at his mother, looking at the white threads exposed in the middle of his mother's black hair, and looking at the slight wrinkles on his mother's face, Mengqiang already knew what he was going to do next.
The children of poor families are in charge of the family at an early age.
The same is true for Meng Qiang, no one knows how many white eyes, how much ridicule, and how much humiliation Meng Qiang usually receives.
Cheap, waste, inferior, these are the words that Meng Qiang hears the most from other people's mouths, and it is obvious that these words are all detained on his own head.
But even so, he never had any evil thoughts in his heart, because he was always with him, encouraged himself, and believed in his mother!
This is motherly love.
Meng Qiang didn't know how much infamy and humiliation his mother had borne for himself, but Meng Qiang knew how much his mother had worked hard for him.
Therefore, even if it is now to ask Mengqiang to lower his head and beg the Mengjia family he hates the most, he will never hesitate!
He's going to save his mother!
After Meng Qiang looked at his mother, he didn't say a word, and walked out quickly.
Uncle Luo and Aunt Yan looked at Mengqiang's small back, and they couldn't say a word of objection for a while.
Because they know that the only way to save Mengqiang's mother now may be to let Mengqiang, the titular "young master" of the dreamer's family, beg his father.
But can Mengqiang see his father as he wishes?
Aunt Yan and Uncle Luo don't know how ruthless a father who never wants to see his son will be?
......
Lin Yun, who has been in the "little black house" for most of the day, really doesn't want to tell stories to Meng Xiaoluo anymore now, because this little girl's appetite is too big!
As soon as she tasted the sweetness, Meng Xiaoluo kept relying on Lin Yun to tell her stories.
Can't repeat yet!
Let's not say that I didn't hear many stories at all in my previous life, even if I heard a lot of stories and memorized them all, if I continue to talk like this, I'm afraid my saliva will run out.
Fortunately, this trip to the "Little Black House" was not as long as Lin Yun imagined, and after most of the day's work, he and Meng Xiaoluo were picked up by Mengluo.
Even Meng Xiaoluo didn't believe that he would be released so soon.
Looking at Meng Xiaoluo, who had just come out, looked sleepy-eyed, Lin Yun couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Sure enough, it's still a child!
As for the reason why Mengluo took out Lin Yun and Meng Xiaoluo this time, it was because Lin Yun was about to follow Lin Chen and Mengfan back to Yangming Sect.
As the head of a sect, it was impossible for Lin Chen to delay too much time outside.
But when Lin Yun followed Mengluo to the gate of Mengji Sect Sect Master Mengyibai's mansion, he found that in front of that cold gate, there was a small body kneeling upright.
Before Lin Yun could ask who Mengluo was, Meng Xiaoluo, who was originally tired, ran over early, and kept shouting "Brother Qiang" in his mouth.
Is he Mengqiang?
Looking at the little boy who refused to be pulled up by Meng Xiaoluo, Lin Yun felt very interesting in his heart. What made Lin Yun feel interesting was not why Meng Qiang knelt here, but Meng Qiang's eyes.
Arrogant and stubborn, he knelt without the slightest hint of begging, but only with a faint expectation in it.
So many emotions can be gathered in the eyes of a small child, Lin Yun feels very interesting, as if it is ...... The self in the previous life, the wandering self.
