Chapter 40: Sether: The Little Prince
Gorgeous high bed, purple curtains, pale blue curtains fluttering in the evening breeze, a beautiful set of cream-white gold-trimmed furniture, tables, chairs, and a bed littered with picture albums, toy weapons, and scattered clothes.
The door slowly opened, and a very beautiful woman in a silver robe peeked through the crack in the door, and the little boy on the bed screamed with joy at the sight of her.
"Mom!"
"Shhh ”
"I waited all day, I really thought you weren't coming. ”
"Baby, didn't we make an appointment a long time ago?" the woman stroked the child's head lovingly, "Today is the seventh birthday of my little prince Sether! ”
"I'm going to say a good night kiss, Mom!" the little boy closed his eyes.
"Click!"
The mother held the child's little face and vigorously shook a big, red kiss on the door of the head. Both mother and son smiled secretly, and the mother held the child tightly in her arms, and kisses fell on his face.
"And my gifts, you won't forget, will you?" the child suddenly stood up from his mother's arms.
"Mom didn't forget, look, here it is. She untied the necklace from her neck and put it on for the child.
The little boy looked at the gift with little pleasure, and pinched the pendant with his little hand, "What is this?"
"This is called the water fire lily, it is the national flower of my mother's hometown, isn't it beautiful?"
"But I'm a man, and men can't wear flowers out, and others will laugh at me. The child said solemnly.
She snorted and laughed, hugged her son again, and rubbed his hair, "Silly boy, this gift is not for you, but for your future wife;
"I know, Ying Zhibai told me a long time ago that if you get married, you will have a wife. But I don't want a wife, I want a gun and a horse. ”
"If it's a man, he'll have a wife. She looked at her son with a smile. "Isn't my little Seser already a man?"
"If I had a wife, would I be happier than I am now?" the child asked earnestly.
"If you like your wife, you will. Her eyes sparkled, "Your wife will be happy too." ”
"But you're also a wife, and you're not happy at all. "The child's ability to observe is amazing.
"That's because," her nose was sour and her eyes were red, "we weren't good role models for you. However, Mom wants you to be happy forever. ”
"I'm happy when I have a mother, I don't need a wife. ”
"But mom will grow old and leave, and only your wife will always be with you. ”
"Well, since you are so insistent, your mother is also a woman, and women are really troublesome. The child pursed the corners of his mouth and grimaced.
"Well, who taught you that?"
"They all say so. The child avoided his mother's gaze, "Wouldn't I be happy if I found a princess to be my wife?"
"Baby, you have to take the time and effort to find a wife that you love dearly, and who also loves you dearly, then you will be happy forever. ”
"Mom, what is love?"
"Love...... Love is the husband's desire to see his wife as a pupil in his eyes, and his willingness to shed blood and sacrifice his life for her, and love is the king's dependence on his husband, who is willing to submit and be humble because of his husband;" She held her son, tears kept welling up, she looked out the window at the night, as if she were telling some invisible soul, "Love is to bear all things, to hope for all things, to endure all things;
Tears fell on the child's head, and he reached out to wipe the tears from his mother's face, looking grim as an adult.
"I'll get you out, I swear. ”
