Chapter Thirty-Eight: Suffering
The nightmare continues.
Yu Sheng's mother carried it for two days, watching Xiao Yusheng faint from hunger several times, and then she threw her face on the mud.
In this terrible world, why is it so difficult to live.
Since then, in the villages around Yu Sheng's house, there is often an 'old monster' begging for food. Get up at dawn and go out on time, and go home on time before sunset, but this 'old monster' never begs for food in the village where he lives for the rest of his life. Even if the neighbors send each other, she doesn't want to ask for it, this is her last fig leaf, once she loses it, she is a beggar for food, and her son will become a beggar for food.
Bitterness, she can carry it alone.
Her son is still young.
The rest of her mother, like all mothers, has always believed in her heart that her son will definitely be better than other people's sons, and he will definitely have a great future in the future: "I can see it as a mother, but you can't see it, it's because you're blind, that's all." ”
The days went by day by day.
Spring goes and autumn comes.
Autumn comes and winter solstice.
For the rest of her life, my mother was rain or shine, never lazy, and never lazy for a day. It's not that she doesn't want to, but she can't, because as long as she doesn't go out for a day, she and her son will go hungry.
I remember that it was about the twenty-ninth year of Xuanyi in the Tang Dynasty, and it was the middle of winter, and the mother of the rest of her life came back from begging for food in the evening, but found that the rest of her life was gone, and she couldn't find it anywhere. At that time, Yu Sheng was only four years old, starving every day, his body was small, he had no strength, and he didn't go out all day long.
On weekdays, no matter what, I would wait quietly in the house for my mother to come home, but now she is gone.
For the rest of her life, her mother went crazy looking for it.
Hysterical shouting.
shouted all over the village.
In the end, it was found in the chicken coop of Aunt Zhang's house next door, and she almost didn't kill her mother for the rest of her life.
The first time, this was the first time in Yu Sheng's life, Yu Sheng's mother had never beaten her son before, and this time she beat Yu Sheng viciously.
The beaten hand is distressed.
When he got home, his mother asked him, "Why don't you wait for your mother at home?" Why did you secretly run to Aunt Zhang's chicken coop and hide?"
Xiao Yusheng was bitter at that time, and he couldn't cry: "Mother, I'm cold!"
Cry for a while, explain for a while: "Mother, hold the chicken, warm!"
The cry seemed to be self-conscious: "Mother, I won't make you angry anymore, and I won't sneak out anymore." ”
I'm cold!
Hold the chicken warm!
A few simple words made the rest of my mother heartbroken.
It was that night that Xiao Yusheng directly caused a cold, and his whole body was as hot as a stove. The rest of her mother was frightened, but she couldn't do anything, she was not a doctor, and when she was sick, she had to find a doctor to grab medicine, but she needed silver to catch medicine. She didn't have any silver on her, not even a copper plate, so she had no choice but to kneel and beg all over the village, and only at dawn did she get the money to ask the doctor for medicine.
After that.
The thing that her mother fears most for the rest of her life is no longer to lose face and lose face, and her biggest fear has become that her son is missing, her son is sick, and she is going to get medicine.
Two years of needlework.
Five years of begging.
The rest of his life is seven years old.
In the lunar month of this year, Yu Sheng's mother came home begging for food, and accidentally fell down, which was not too serious, but this fall threw her to the hospital bed and never got up again.
My mother was only twenty-six years old.
But it seems that she is alive and well with a sixty-two-year-old old lady, an old witch.
Chen Yusheng was lying on the edge of the hospital bed at that time, his thin body was not as fat as he is now, and he was not as good as a four or five-year-old child in the village.
Yu Sheng's mother fell ill, what should I do with this family? Yu Sheng's mother thought about it all night, but she didn't sleep all night, but she couldn't come up with a reason, and when the sky was shining, the door rang.
Xiao Yusheng ran out by himself, ran in the heavy snow like goose feathers, ran away for a day, and didn't go home for a whole day. I came back when it was dark, and when I came home, my whole little face was frozen. The hair and eyebrows are all covered with ice ballast, a thin layer, crystal clear.
The rest of her mother was angry again.
scolded the rest of his life viciously.
The rest of his life quietly listened to his mother's nagging, and then explained the truth, and took out a handful of little yellow rice from his sleeve. It turned out that he went to the mountains alone, cut firewood for a day, and then carried the firewood to the village in exchange for this handful of small yellow rice, and said this for the rest of his life: "Mother, you are sick, you have to eat something good, and Ah Sheng will go to get you food in the future, and you will be able to recover from your illness." ”
One word.
The burden of a son's family fell on a child's body.
Tomorrow after tomorrow, go up the mountain to chop firewood, go down the mountain to change grain, Xiaoyu grew into Chen Yusheng. His mother has never read, and he has never read, so he can only rely on his youth and his strength.
Lucky.
God is not kind to Chen Yusheng, and rewards him with a bite to eat.
The thin and small Chen Yusheng began to grow strong at a speed visible to the naked eye, gaining weight, growing strength, and drinking water.
When you have more strength, you will have more firewood to chop and more food you can exchange. Then, from chopping firewood to helping other people's families grow crops, helping the village chief herd cattle, helping the blacksmith make iron, and helping the tavern owner make wine, as long as it is in this village, Chen Yusheng has never been picky, he has no choice, and he can't pick it, he does it all.
Do your best.
The life at home is getting better and better, but the rest of her mother's body is getting worse and worse, and there are too many diseases on her body, countless, but it can be seen that she is still trying to survive.
Sometimes, Chen Yusheng feels distressed when he looks at it, but he can't help it.
He also secretly invited a doctor, but everyone shook their heads and said: "The heart is gone, the vitality is broken, unless Da Luo Jinxian is alive, there is no cure." ”
The old village chief also persuaded him around the bend: "Your mother is hanging in one breath, you are a son, think about persuading." It's too bitter, if you can go with peace of mind, you can go with peace of mind, and if you have any thoughts, I will tell you, don't go unclear. Your mother's life, it's so bad!"
Chen Yusheng tossed and turned all night.
The next day, with dark circles under his eyes, he told his mother about the doctor's diagnosis.
Yu Sheng's mother was not too surprised, but just grabbed his hand: "Ah Sheng, my mother has seen it all her life, there is no way to live hard, it is already God's reward to live until now, in fact, he is a person who should die." But my mother doesn't want to die, my mother wants to watch my son grow up healthy and healthy, my mother is unwilling, my mother is not afraid of pain, my mother is afraid of ......"
The words are not finished.
For the rest of her life, her mother did not leave with peace of mind.
just continued to stay up until the rest of his life was eleven years old, and this year, the bones of the rest of his life suddenly grew out, even surpassing his mother.
It's like a return to the light.
The mother, who had not been able to get up for several years, went out of the house for the first time on this day, walked to the yard with the rest of her life in hand, and threw out a paper crane in front of him.
The crane made of paper was able to fly, and it flew into the air and disappeared as soon as it smewed.
Thousands of miles away in Shushan, a fat man received this paper crane.
When the paper crane was opened, Yu Sheng's mother raised her hand and stroked Yu Sheng's cheek: "Ah Sheng, my mother is tired, I am so tired, I am really tired, I am really tired, can you hug my mother? Let my mother rest, rest for a while......
The sunset on this day, extra red, very red.
She leaned on his shoulder and fell asleep.
His shoulders were broad, warm, and fleshy, and in a trance, it seemed like he had gone back to a long, long time ago.
On that day, I dried up my tears and was carried away crying.
In the dark.
Nightmare.
Chen Yusheng burst into tears again.
The tears and eyes rubbed together, and they were so tired and tired......
There was water in the tears, water, which ran down the cheeks and soaked into the skin......
