24. How much do you know about the flowers in your dreams
Bai Gu seemed to have had a long, long dream.
In the dream, it is a chaos, charming, boundless, and unreal.
A grass seedling suddenly emerged, and in an instant, it turned into a towering tree, supporting the chaos.
Suddenly, the chaos began to fluctuate violently, and a touch of clarity came into being, illuminating the entire chaos.
At the same time, a black shadow swirled in the chaos, and finally crashed into the clear light, exploding a huge mushroom cloud.
Bai Gu was also awakened at this time.
He has had this dream more than once since he was a child, and he has also had other strange dreams, but many of them can't remember clearly after waking up.
Only this clip remembers it very clearly.
He once asked the old lady Bai why she dreamed, or such a strange dream.
Old Mrs. Bai just told him not to think blindly, to think about it day and dream at night. Usually the little head always thinks about some strange things, and there will be no dreams in them.
It seems that yes, I do fantasize about some things on a regular basis.
For example, he is the son of a wealthy merchant, and he should have enjoyed glory and wealth, stretched out his hands for clothes, and opened his mouth for food. There are countless servants around him, and every day there are delicious foods, fresh melons and fruits. I live in a big mansion with five entrances, I wear silk and satin, and I can eat whatever I want, and I can do whatever I want, and I am very happy. It's just that he was abducted by traitors and exiled to this Lingding Alley to suffer, and one day the rich businessman's parents will find him and take him home.
For another example, he is the son of a chivalrous couple, and he should have followed his parents to the ends of the world and made the world his home. His parents taught him martial arts, worked hard himself, practiced successfully, and walked the world with one person and one sword. But he never thought that his parents would be hunted down and killed by the enemy, so he could only place the young man in Lingding Alley, just waiting for the fate to meet and recognize each other again in the future.
There are many more like this, the sons of princes, the young masters of the clan, they all have fantasies.
Without exception, his parents were forced to separate from him, and in the end they were reunited.
Since he was picked up by Mrs. Bai when he was very young, until now, he has never heard or seen all the clues about his parents.
Not a single bit.
From the bottom of his heart, he still looks forward to having parents.
Even if Mrs. Bai is very good to him, it is just the love of grandchildren, not the love of parents after all.
Although the people in Lingding Alley are poor and the people in it are not good, they at least have parents, and they have been accompanied by their parents since they were children.
When they are hungry, their parents will find a way to get food. When it's cold, I can have my parents' cotton clothes and quilts to keep warm. If he is wronged outside, he can go home and complain to his parents, and his parents can stand up for him.
And most importantly, the embrace of parents.
Although these old white ladies can do it, even better than any parent in Lingding Alley.
But so what?
The arms of parents, everything from parents is irreplaceable.
For parents, children are unique.
For children, parents are the same, there is only one, and there is no substitute in this world.
When dealing with the five children, Bai Gu asked their parents to choose between them, and only one of them would leave alive.
But in fact, Bai Gu just wanted to see if they, as parents, were willing to die for their children. In the case that the people of Lingding Lane are selfish, are they willing to choose to die for the sake of their children?
If all five of them chose to die at that time, Bai Gu would have let them and their children go. Because he just needs to know that the love of parents for their children is not afraid of life and death.
He also didn't want those five children to lose their father or mother.
He can just experience this kind of thing alone, so why implicate others?
But it's a pity that Ding Bo was the only one who made the choice at that time, and he chose to live on his own. Others are in a dilemma and can't make a choice.
But they also have their own struggles.
On the one hand, it is his own flesh and blood, and on the other hand, he and the rest of his family, and he can't bear to choose which side he wants, like a knife cutting his heart.
As adults, or adults with families, they have to think more and more long-term than Bai Gu.
The reason why Ding Bo made a decision so quickly, on the one hand, was that he had read for a few more years, was sensible, and knew how to advance and retreat. He understood that his children broke into Bai's house to smash and rob, causing Bai Xiaoxiao and Ah Yue to be injured and killed, and this matter was their fault. Even if your children don't pay for their lives, they have to pay a lot of money.
The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for your side.
Bai Gu's patience is limited, and the time for his children to kneel in the snow is also limited.
If it drags on for too long, your children can't stand the cold wind and snow.
Second, as the head of the family, he is the man of his mother-in-law, and the father of the children, so he needs to think about this family.
Yes, he can die for his youngest son and let his younger son live. And then what? The children are still young, and their mother-in-law is seriously ill in bed, what will happen to their future lives?
Do you want to watch them die one by one in heaven because they have no experience of survival, and come to be reunited with you? Isn't that right?
It is better to cut through the mess quickly, give up the small to protect the big, and minimize the loss.
Although Dingbo's heart was dripping blood, there was no way, he had to make the least costly decision for the entire family. Even if he will be infamous as an outcast, he doesn't care.
It's good to be alive.
The other four were simply reluctant, and they were reluctant to give up either side.
That's what delayed time.
Coupled with Aunt Wang's sentence "They are just children", this made Bai Gu completely explode.
Child? Are your children children, and other people's stakes of wood?
Ah Yue is seven years old, Bai Xiaoxiao is ten years old, which of them is not a child? What's wrong with them that they have to endure this at such a young age?
What's more, Bai Gu is only sixteen years old!
Your Aunt Lin's child is a fifteen-year-old child, am I an adult?
Others are sixteen years old, and they are also children nested in their parents' arms!
Relying on the love of his parents to act recklessly, Bai Gu is the most unaccustomed to this kind of person.
wants to get rid of all the faults as a child, and this kind of person feels unworthy of being a parent. Although this kind of love can protect the child in a certain environment, it will only harm the child - this is doting!
It's unfortunate that these two of them all ran together and dangled in front of Bai Gu, and he still didn't repent, so don't blame him for being ruthless.
You children break into my house and smash and rob, whether you do it or not, you are at least an accomplice.
In that case, then I just need a pair of hands from your children, not too much.
If this kind of bear child is allowed to grow up, it may become a scourge. In this way, if they cut off their hands and become invalids, then they can only rely on their parents in Lingding Lane for the rest of their lives, and they will not run away to harm others and do evil wantonly.
I heard that Ding Bo and Aunt Wang's children died of excessive blood loss because Lao Liu didn't want to make a move.
Aunt Lin usually has a good relationship with Lao Liu Tou, so she barely saved the child's life.
Aunt Chen and Li Bo knew each other a little, and went directly to other hospitals, and the life and death of the two children are still unknown.
It's just that Bai Gu doesn't have much feeling about their fate. Even if they all died, Bai Gu would not feel a little guilty, not a little guilty.
Ah Yue was accompanied by the old lady Bai at the foot of the hill and slept in the snow.
Bai Xiaoxiao was still lying on the hospital bed in Cheung Chau Pharmacy in a coma with serious injuries, and she didn't know when she would wake up.
Bai Gu didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.
It's not the right thing to do, but at least it's right.
In line with human feelings, in line with heavenly principles.
Bai Gu has a clear conscience.
It's just that Bai Gu watched such parents teach such children, which is very reasonable, but it is also quite sad.
I can't teach my children, at least don't take them badly.
And such a child is accompanied by such parents, but it makes Bai Gu extremely envious.
And feel pitiful.
I envy them that they are still accompanied by their parents, but I pity them for having no education at all.
Bai Gu wiped his face and looked up at the window.
There was a blank expanse of snow.
He had fantasized about his parents getting together with him in his dreams more than once, and he had asked Mrs. Bai if she had any news about his parents more than once.
The answer is always no.
He never blamed his parents for abandoning him.
Maybe they have their own troubles?
As a child, you must understand the hardships and difficulties of your parents, and don't complain and say hurtful words casually.
But to be honest, Bai Gu still felt a little sad in his heart.
Why didn't you come to him for sixteen years? Haven't found this place yet?
Bai Gu took a deep breath, covered his eyes with his hands, and stopped looking at the snow outside.
I just hope it's all a dream, and when I wake up, I don't remember.
Just like the book says, how many flowers fall in dreams.
Wake up and don't know who, when, where.
