"How many times have I told you about you? You'll be able to clean the door! With a strong sense of depression, the landlord looked down at the scrap area in a daze.

"I said I'll clean it later, so don't be angry." Yoon Kyung-sun (Lee Seung-mi's mother) suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart and replied in a whisper-like voice as much as possible, while her eyes lingered expectantly, as if she was afraid of being seen or heard by the Forest Bureau.

"Anyway, what are you guys up to? Is! There is not even a normal person in a family of two! Originally thought that there was a movement from the corner of the empty apartment that looked like someone was talking, and Seongmi, who had barely climbed half the floor, pressed her bulging chest with her hands and feet, and slowed down, but when she heard the stern tone of the landlord's aunt, her speed rushed forward like a fierce flame.

"When? Hmph, I've been standing in front of you for more than ten minutes, and you haven't even moved your feet and raised your hands! And, what do you say about cleaning after I leave? Oh?! Do you want to wait until I'm completely dead before I clean up?! ”

It's horrible! The landlord's voice was completely different from when she faced herself alone. Chengmei, who was hesitant because of curiosity, had just walked to the jogging platform when her aunt's sharp voice echoed in front of the dimly lit again.

"Seungmi! Eldest daughter, you're back just in time! Look, look for your mother, how can this place still be a place for people? If you don't know, you think this is a waste shelter?! Look at this, and there, this garbage pile is too wild?! Even the smell stinks to death! If you move out, I won't be able to finish it in a month! ”

The landlord's aunt stood there with her hands crossed on her hips, and after glancing at the garbage again in frustration, she looked at Seungmi with a look that wanted to confirm something. From her mother's listless face, Chengmei keenly captured her uneasiness, although her heart was pounding with anger, Chengmei's expression was no different from usual, but her jaw was trembling slightly.

"Auntie, don't worry, I'll take care of it for my mother later, and we're used to living in this place, and we won't move out for a year and a half."

"It's not next to any of that, the main thing is, look, what do you think I've hit this leg into? You also know that this building is not well lit at night, and I fell on the junk in front of your house last night to make it like this! Even if it's my age, what if it's an old man with gray hair? It's not that Auntie, I speak ugly, just Chengmei's little income, how can I compensate for it?! ”

The landlord's aunt secretly reproached Yin Qingshan's carelessness and replied in a blunt tone.

"Ahh Out of surprise, Seung-mi kept twitching the corners of her mouth, and her eyes became more and more strange.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. Or you can take a picture of the hospital list and I'll pay you. Lee Seung-mi's expression was subtle, indicating that her heart could not be calm. And in the next moment, she was angry and gritted her teeth at her mother.

He apologized, and then he resolutely did not change. Don't put this kind of road in front of my eyes! By the way, wait at the door of your house before moving, and deal with the piles that are piled up at the door of other people's houses first! Really, if you want to be crazy, you can't be crazy to be normal?! Anger rippled like clear blue waves in the bottom of his eyes, watching his aunt take out the key. Then he slowly opened the door, even if it was only for two minutes, and the transparent sweat splashed on his slightly brown and tight forehead, and the yellowed hair was already soaked, and it was now scattered messily on her proud cheeks and thin collarbones.

"What is this? Mom, look at me! Tell me what this is?!! There was a "clang" sound in the safety exit. After confirming that the landlord's aunt had left completely, Lee Seung-mi was so angry that she kicked the wall with her foot. Yoon Kyung-sun stood on the stairs marked with a safety exit, and even though the light was dim, she could still see Seung-mi's face that made her legs weak and her tongue numb.

"And where are you going to use all that dirty stuff over there?!" Seungmi continued to question angrily. And Yin Qingshan is like a child who has encountered a problem, and his eyes are full of fear.

"Answer me!!" Looking at Yin Qingshan's increasingly embarrassed face, Seung-mi's voice was as piercing as a bomb.

"Keep your head down? Is it the meaning of resistance? After picking up everything, is it difficult to answer your daughter's question? What's so bad about hurting self-esteem? Do you know that I'm the hardest person just now?! Please, can you let me keep a little bit of my poor self-esteem too?! Whether it's at work, at home, or children, which one doesn't break my heart! And you and Lee Sung-yeon, because all of you have done so many incredible things, I'm so angry that I can't sleep all night! Exhausted! I don't want to waste my words in vain, people's energy is limited after all, so I beg you two to make less trouble and let me relax and relax my nerves! ”

Seungmei's mind was in turmoil, and she slapped the fence at the staircase with her red and swollen hands, although Seungmi kept telling herself on the way home from the unit that no matter what kind of sister she saw, she must cheer up and be reasonable. But now she can't control her emotions anymore.

"Kara!"

With a loud bang, the door opened. Just as the panicked Seung-mi and her mother were looking inside the door at the same time, Lee Sung-yeon stumbled over to them. Because of autism, Cheng Yan has always been fearless with her head held high.

"Mom, you take Li Chengyan in first, I'll pack up my things here alone, and calm down by the way." Although deep down I feel desolate, even a little tired. But Seungmi just bit her lip, and then stared at Yin Qingshan with a pair of red eyes that would collapse at any time.

"That's not good, it's all good! Especially the sofa over there and those clothes, but they are all big brands in the mall! If you want me to say Chengmei, you don't even have a decent piece of clothing at home, and you're still thinking about wasting and wasting, and you don't know how to save at such an age. How will you live in the future?! Seungmei, who was already suffering from a headache in her life, was now in even more pain, and she tried to suppress her anger and irritability that was about to get out of control, and asked in a cold voice.

"Then tell me, why don't you put such a good thing at home? Isn't it because you don't need it that the hallway is full of gas? ”

Looking at Chengmei, whose neck was stiff and her face was distorted, Yin Qingshan gasped with a red face.

"Mom? Didn't you listen to what Auntie just said? Is this still where people live? Do you know what you're bad about in people's hearts?! Please, don't you want to do it? Isn't it possible that you really want to stuff this place into a chicken coop or a dog kennel to be happy?! ”

Chengmei's words were indeed groundbreaking, and Yin Qingshan couldn't think of anything to refute her at all. After thinking about it for a long time, she had to rely on her pitiful eyes and the corners of her depressed mouth to try to win Chengmei's sympathy.

"I am! Mom, I'm really convinced of you. With a sigh, even the pain in my chest became stronger than ever. Large drops of sweat began to fall from the top of her head, and in order not to be noticed by the poor mother, she had to disguise herself as a repeated nap, and then, after feeling a little relieved, she stood there motionless and remained silent.

"Come on, I'm already hot enough just to be with Cheng Yan. If you still have anger to blow, drink a glass of water and leave! Although the eldest daughter Chengmei was obviously much more pungent than herself, Yin Qingshan still pursed her mouth and said.

"I hate it, why did you forget to boil water again?! Forget it, it's going to take some time anyway, you come in, I'll make you a bucket of noodles. ”

While her mother was rummaging through the cabinets to find something, Chengmei soaked her face in the sink, and this time not only her chest, head and even her heart were numb and crispy, so she had to rinse her hair with warm water again.

"It's strange that it's obviously placed here, why can't I find it?! Husband! Husband, the two of us went to the supermarket to buy instant noodles last week, do you remember where I put them? ”

Chengmei suddenly felt frozen to the bone, and her head seemed to be hit several times, she couldn't believe what she saw in front of her, so she stared at her mother desperately. But the sound of mom calling "husband" continues.

"Husband!" …

"When did you come to that Chengmei? Why didn't you even say hello, your hair was still wet, wouldn't it be that you were bullied by your classmates again? ”

After hearing the truth from her mother's mouth, Seungmi felt an unprecedented exhaustion covering her whole body at the speed of light. After taking a final glance at the tomb-like home, Cheng Meisheng pushed open the door without love.

"It's weird, am I looking for something? Why did you still open the refrigerator door?! Door, oh, was someone from the house just now?! ”

I didn't visit for a month, and the change in my mother was too unexpected to bear all this, so she sat silently at the end of the corridor with her head against the gray wall covered with green hair.

"Auntie's original intention was not to deliberately embarrass you with a bunch of rags, because she knew that it was not easy for you to make money, so Auntie didn't charge the already small medical expenses. But Chengmei, your mother's state is really getting worse and worse, and I heard people in the community say that she seems to go out a lot at night. After she left, your sister Cheng Yan always made a lot of noise about things in the house. So for the sake of everyone in the building, and of course for the good of your mother and your sister. Please contact the nursing hospital as soon as possible. Even the street lamps that were clearly extinguished were so in line with Chengmei's mood, looking at the gray stars, Chengmei left a meaningful wry smile.

"I really didn't expect you to be only two years younger than me? Haha, then I just called you aunt, will you be angry. That's right, how can a woman like you have the money to maintain her skin, but looking at the contours of her facial features, if she hadn't taken a wrong step back then, she would have been more moisturized than me now. After all, the mouth grows on the face, as long as the face is young and beautiful, you always don't have to worry about eating! ”

The words of the landlord's aunt and Han Sun-hee (Song Joo-hyun) evoke Seung-mi's strange resistance, and at the same time soften her last stubbornness.

Walking aimlessly and almost swaying into the subway station, looking around the pitch-black surroundings with a pair of unfocused eyes, Seungmi accidentally caught a glimpse of the ice cream stand that she frequented when she was a teenager. So she quickly got up and walked over there. As she walked, she suddenly stopped, and after pulling out her shriveled wallet, she smiled awkwardly and lonely. Her throat choked even more, but she still tried to hold back. The aunt at the booth seemed to recognize Seungmi at a glance, and she waved her hand happily at Seungmei.

"Auntie, how much is a strawberry-flavored ice cream?" Seungmi asked weakly, a smile forced into her lips.

"Oops! You've been taking care of your aunt's business since you were very young, so I'm too embarrassed to make your money again. Take it. Take it quickly, they all say it's my treat! ”

After receiving the two ice creams, Seungmi held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes and left the stall. Unfortunately, the place where I had just sat had been occupied by a few children. Chengmei had no choice but to stand silently by the trash can with ice cream on the side.

"Before I reached the age of 40, life was already so hopeless. How will I survive in the next 10 years? Tired, so tired. My mother, my sister, my husband and my children, they all left me feeling helpless. I was carried away by that little bit of evil dependence, which is why I was tortured and hurt so much. Now that I think about it, I am so stupid, I am stupid to think that love can make me fed, warm, sleep well, and make me happy forever. Now I finally understand that love alone will not work. What to do? I don't want to be tired, miserable, and desperate! But what else can I do, doesn't it say that there is no endless road? Merciful God, show me the way! Please..."

At the moment when his brain was in a mess, the world in his eyes began to fall into the infinite darkness like a collapsed sand city. Strange, I heard Zheng Yucheng's voice in this muffled thunder one after another, but my mouth didn't obey, and I seemed to have lost the feeling of palpitations in a person.

The tip of her nose soured, and a blinding light shot at her in front of her, mixed with the sound of muffled thunder exploding.

"Whew, oh my God! Me, am I disappearing? Seongmi raised her trembling hand and touched her twitching face. But in the face of such a terrifying change, she could do nothing but be shocked.

The surging light pierced her again, followed by rumbling sounds and excruciating pain. Then there was nothing but darkness before her eyes. Suddenly, I heard a sound similar to something falling to the ground. Although the pain in her arm was even more unbearable, she was still trying to reach it. "Heh, heh..." I was so choked that I couldn't speak, and even my deep breathing was so weak! But gradually, the coin in his hand seemed to have a person's gentle body temperature remaining.
