Verse 73

73

He returned with a full load, and when he returned, it was nearly evening.

There is only a daughter in the family.

Ice pot cold stove.

His heart was cold, and he had a sense of foreboding.

"Where's your amo?" he asked his daughter.

"She said she went to the market, bought some rice, oil and salt, and asked me to take care of my home and wait for you to come back. She also said that she didn't come home at night, so don't look for her, she will be back tomorrow, I know she lied, she will definitely leave us and run outside, and she won't come back. I didn't want her to go, I blocked the door with the table to prevent her from leaving, but I didn't stop her, Ada, you don't blame me, do you?" the young daughter didn't cry, because it wasn't the first time her mother had run away from home, and her tears had already ended. She then said to her father, "But I have already cooked dinner, fried eggplant, a spicy tofu, and cooked a loofah soup, and I didn't ask the cook to help me, I made it all by myself." The dishes are all on the table, I am afraid that the cat and the mouse will steal food, so I cover it with a big dustpan, I just looked at it, it's cold, you rest first, I'll burn it hot and then eat......"

The most indispensable thing in the house is rice, oil and salt. The wife lied to her daughter. Once again, she deceived him and his daughter.

Bai Chongshan cried, not for his ruthless and sick wife, not for his own predicament, but for his daughter who lost her mother's love; The well-behaved, sensible and capable daughter made him can't help but be moved to tears.

He and his daughter have suffered too much misfortune in recent years: when her daughter was two years old, her grandmother, who had always regarded her granddaughter Bai Ruxue as her treasure, passed away, and she was not at ease to leave her granddaughter who had no mother's love since she was a child in the world. When his daughter was four years old, his grandfather, who also loved his granddaughter, also left with guilt, and he regretted raising such a child daughter-in-law, and he always blamed himself for the cursed marriage arranged by his son, and he felt sorry for his son and granddaughter.

As always, it was another protracted search...... January, February; One year, ten years. Bai Chongshan's wife, Miao Yuegui, has not been heard from.

Since then, Bai Chongshan and Bai Ruxue, the two fathers and daughters have depended on each other for their lives until now.

Halfway through, a well-wisher persuaded Bai Chongshan to remarry, but he said disheartenedly: "The women who have raised me and know the roots are so unreliable, and I dare to trust strange women outside? My biological mother is so indifferent and ruthless to my own daughter, can I expect other women to really love my daughter? Forget it, my daughter and I can't afford to hurt anymore." ”

Bai Chongshan knows that over the years, her daughter has not cried or made trouble, nor has she asked or mentioned her mother, not that she does not miss her mother, but that her precocious and sensible daughter understands her father and is unwilling to embarrass her father with impossible wishes. After all, the blood is connected, whether the mother who gave birth to her is a good person or a bad person, healthy or disabled, a demon or an angel...... Daughters want their mothers to come home and be by her side, even if they don't do anything as a mother, even if they are a waste.
