Dashan Makes a Living 1984 - Chapter 241: 237: The missing flower is back
Chapter 241 237: The missing flower is back
In the evening, at Wang Tianxiao’s suggestion, everyone spread an oilcloth on the big stone at the door, and the oilcloth was filled with various fruits, dried fruits, snacks, moon cakes, wine, drinks and so on.
Everyone sat cross-legged on the stone, chatting around the food.
Talking and laughing, eating and drinking.
Everyone is gathered here, reunited.
The moon tonight is also very face-saving, big and bright, and it seems that the surrounding stars are much thinner.
It’s just that the Milky Way is still like a white chain, spanning the sky.
The starry sky in this era is very beautiful, densely packed with stars, like countless silver beans scattered in the blue sky.
The constellations that should appear this season are also clear at a glance.
After eight o’clock, the sky gradually turned cold, and the mountain wind began to blow over.
But everyone chatted very happily, just added a piece of clothing.
Wang Tianxiao was very happy, and it was rare for him to drink some wine. He didn’t expect that his drinking capacity has declined quite a lot now. He didn’t feel like he drank much, but he was still drunk in the end.
In the end, I didn’t know how to get back to the room.
The next morning, when Wang Tianxiao was woken up by Li Yali, his head was still groggy. He opened his eyes and looked at his wife puzzled, not knowing why he was woken up.
Generally, when this happens, his wife will considerately let him sleep until he wakes up naturally.
“What’s the matter, Lili?”
Li Yali’s expression was very complicated, she couldn’t tell whether she was happy or sad, she hesitated before saying: “Tianyi came this morning, he said yes… Huaer came back.”
“ah?”
Wang Tianxiao turned over and sat up, and asked what was going on in surprise.
“Let Tianyi tell you the details. I’ll go out and call him in.”
“good.”
Wang Tianxiao rubbed his dizzy head, put on a coat and leaned against the Kang wall, and saw Wang Tianyi coming in hurriedly.
“Second brother.”
Wang Tianyi took advantage of the situation and sat on the kang.
“What’s going on, according to your sister-in-law, that child Hua’er is back?”
“Isn’t it? Yesterday I slept until midnight, and suddenly heard a child crying outside. I was startled at the time, thinking that it might be haunted in the middle of the night. But when I ran out, it turned out to be a flower. My child was squatting at the door and crying, which frightened me at the time, and I thought… what happened to that child. ”
It’s no wonder that Wang Tianxiao thought about it. In the middle of the night, a child who had been missing for a long time suddenly squatted at the door and cried. Anyone who saw it was probably scared.
“Then did you ask, what’s going on, where has the child been for so many days, and her mother, didn’t she come back with her?”
“I asked, but the child seems to have a problem with his brain. No matter what I ask, he doesn’t say a word, or just sits and cries, or is in a daze. Look at this, what should we do?”
“Where is the child now?”
“I just sent it to my mother. But when I saw what my mother asked her, she seemed to ignore it. It made my mother cry, and I don’t know what happened to the child.”
Wang Tianxiao’s eyes flashed the child Hua’er.
A little introverted, with a pair of dark and bright eyes.
She seems to be more mature than her peers, at least much more mature than her aunt Wang Xiaozhu.
“I’ll try it.”
Wang Tianxiao got up, got dressed, brushed his teeth hastily, and then went to his mother’s room.
Since the disaster, my mother has been living in the mountains, sharing a room with Xiaozhu and Hongwei.
Because Xiaozhu still had to go to school, Wang Tianxin sent her off every morning, but it was a bit difficult to come back in the afternoon.
However, this is also impossible.
Compared with many people who can only live in temporary tents, she is already very good.
When Wang Tianxiao came to his mother, Hongwei and Wang Fang were playing outside, only mother and Huaer.
The mother sighed and sat on the side, looking at a loss.
Hua’er sat leaning against the railing with her knees hugged, her eyes dull, and a thin blanket was draped over her back.
She is like a wounded little animal, huddled in the cold wind.
Wang Tianxiao felt distressed for a while.
He has an old man in his soul, and he hates children suffering the most.
Although the relationship with Hua’er is just an uncle and nephew, I already feel like a generational relative in my heart.
Seeing such a small child turn into this kind of appearance, really…
Angry and distressed.
Mother saw Wang Tianxiao coming in, and looked at him with eyes asking for help.
Wang Tianxiao signaled his mother to go out and walk outside, and he tried to talk to the child.
Mother nodded, got off the kang and went out.
The two of them didn’t say a word the whole time, and the atmosphere was suffocated to the point of freezing.
It’s like a room full of gunpowder, just waiting for a spark to come in, it may explode in an instant, and then everything is blown up and wiped out.
Eleven-year-old girl.
You are already very sensible.
Girls mature earlier than boys, and this poor age is especially prominent.
Wang Tianxiao clearly remembers Hua’er before, knowing that although she is only a child, she already understands everything.
Including various complex relationships between adults.
She also personally asked about Wang Tianxiao and her parents.
Unexpectedly, in a short period of about a year, it has come to this point.
Really… things are different.
Wang Tianxiao looked at it for a while, sighed, picked up the comb from the window sill next to it, sat gently beside Hua’er, put her on the side, and untied her braid that was already messed up and out of shape.
People in this era all want to twist braids.
People have a lot of hair, and sometimes they can’t get one out of the way, and they will do two more.
Hua’er doesn’t have a lot of hair, so I twisted one, but because it hasn’t been re-tied for a long time, it’s already messed up, and part of the hair falls from the front, frizzy, and there is no such thing as a hairstyle.
“Hua’er, Erda comb your hair. Look, no matter what happens, we always want to make ourselves beautiful. We are girls, not like those silly boys.”
“Look, this hair is already so long. It’s good to grow. This hair is grown by people absorbing people’s troubles. Look at why children’s hair grows so fast. It’s because children There are so many troubles, but why does she look carefree, isn’t it all sucked away by her hair?”
“Let me tell you, don’t look at Erda like this, but I comb my hair very well. I just don’t usually do it. I’m afraid that people will comb too well. They are reluctant to wash their hair.”
“How many twists for you, let me think about it, forget it, just two, two looks more energetic, if you just comb it three times, your hair may be pulled uncomfortably…”
Wang Tianxiao was like an old lady, combing his hair in a rambling manner while talking nagging words to the child.
He was indeed right.
He is good at combing his hair.
In his previous life, when he was not busy, he would comb Wang Fang’s hair and his wife’s hair.
His hands have always been clever.
Small enough to make buns, cut window grilles, big enough to do all kinds of carpentry, building walls and building houses, etc.
As long as he can see something, he will slowly try to make it.
A lot of time, he just doesn’t have time to do it.
Coaxing a little girl to talk, he also has the experience that he is very unwilling to have.
In her previous life, Wang Fang gradually developed depression and lost the courage to live several times.
Every time he struggled to pull the child out of the predicament.
Wang Fang once shared the helpless pain with him.
Countless times, thinking of the child’s innocent eyes, he felt very sad.
People are different.
Faced with the same thing, some people can simply put aside the past and start over from scratch, but some people find it difficult, or even never get out of the predicament.
Without any outside intervention, they could be forever lost in a self-enclosed world.
Until a certain point, a complete breakdown.
He didn’t know what happened to Hua’er during the few months of her disappearance.
So he couldn’t directly persuade her to do something.
I have experienced the same thing, but the reaction is still different.
What’s more, he has never experienced it.
Many adults always like to use their psychological endurance to demand children.
When they grow from children to adults, they seem to forget the sadness and difficulties of being children, thus betraying the children.
They don’t like being stereotyped by the world, and gradually become people who rigidly demand the world.
The hero who resisted became the dragon after all.
Wang Tianxiao’s childhood, youth and youth were full of various pains.
In his last life, he has not come out for a long time.
It may be the last few years, when all the dust has settled, the children live a happy life, and he has a grandson and granddaughter again, the innocent and lively smiles of the grandson and granddaughter healed the scars deep in his heart.
was slowly relieved.
Thinking, perhaps most of his life’s misery and homelessness may be for the beautiful peace of his later years.
The children live and work in peace and contentment, the grandchildren are lively and lovely, and they have no worries about food and clothing…
If so, it would have been better for the wife to be alive.
After rebirth, with the open-minded attitude of the elderly, he has some career pursuits, but he hopes that his relatives and those who care carefully will live well.
He is willing to help everyone, willing to be a giver.
Just like his previous life, no matter what, he is willing to silently raise his hands to support the children’s future.
If in this world some people have to sacrifice, then some people can live a better life.
Then let him sacrifice.
Who called him the father?
He brought the children into this world, so he has to do his best to make them better.
The child needs to cross the river, he is the bridge.
Children need to go to the sky, then he is the step.
Perhaps, during the countless rushing journeys, he would occasionally think, if he did everything for others, where would he be?
But it doesn’t matter anymore.
Every generation has its own values and cultural awareness.
Maybe there will be fewer and fewer traditional fathers like him in the future, and people will gradually pay more attention to the expression of self-awareness, but that is the next thing.
He doesn’t object, and he doesn’t think it’s wrong for others to do that.
He just has his own persistence.
When the spring silkworm dies, the candle turns to ashes.
The afternoon sun shines in through the window lattice, reflecting in Hua’er’s eyes.
A little dazzling, her eyes moved slightly.
She stretched out her hand to cover the sun, but she murmured, “It’s so warm.”
Wang Tianxiao’s hands froze slightly, he suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said softly: “The sun rises earlier in the mountains, because there are no houses and trees to cover it. If it was in our house, we would not see it this time.” Woolen cloth.”
“Erda?”
“Well, I’m here.”
“My dad died?”
Wang Tianxiao was slightly taken aback, and sighed softly: “Everyone will die, and your father is no exception.”
“How did he die?”
“More than a month ago, there was a flood here. You saw it at home. The pit yard was completely flooded. At that time, your father was hiding in the house… Everyone didn’t notice…”
“Oh, drowned.”
Hua’er responded lightly.
smiled lightly: “It’s good to die.”
Wang Tianxiao felt a little nervous when he heard her say this.
Being able to say this lightly, it can be seen how much hatred she has in her heart at the moment.
Once this kind of hatred for parents is formed, it is often the most difficult poison in the world to resolve.
Hate born of love hurts people the most.
“Hua’er, let’s live here in Erda from now on. No matter what happened in the past, Erda is still Erda, just like I liked you when I was a child. In the future, your second aunt and I will love you and give you the best Life…”
“Will I still have the best life?” Hua’er smiled lightly.
“There will be. Every winter we think that the cold is the limit. Everything in the world seems to be frozen, and there is no more vitality. But when the ice and snow melt in spring, the warm sunshine will bring infinite vitality.”
Wang Tianxiao finished the last bit of the braid, and tied butterfly flowers on the braid.
“Every dark night is not forever, right? The sky will always be bright. Each of us will survive through suffering again and again in our lives, just like we have to experience many dark nights…”
“What if we die in the dark?”
“Oh, this…of course it is the most painful, so we have to be brave and not let ourselves die in the dark.”
Wang Tianxiao looked into his niece’s eyes kindly, “Why, isn’t it, why are we going to die in the dark night? Even if we climb, we have to climb under the sun.”
Hua’er looked at Wang Tianxiao in a daze.
Perhaps it was her uncle’s warmth that temporarily resolved the painful ice field in her heart.
“Hua’er, since I was a child, I knew that you were a sensible and strong child… It’s a pity that this world will not be free from suffering because we are sensible and strong. All we can do is to look down on them and not be scared by them Fall, defeat…”
“Erda, you said we all have to work hard to climb under the sun?” Hua’er asked suddenly.
“Yeah, that’s what I said.”
“Then… what if we don’t have the strength to climb?”
Wang Tianxiao looked at the deep tiredness in the eyes of children who did not belong to this age, and felt sad again.
He gently stroked the child’s head, “Then there are still relatives.”
“A relative?”
Hua’er’s eyes are full of confusion, but also a bit of sadness.
“Hua’er, although you don’t have your father and… your mother, you still have us. Look at grandma, uncles, aunts, everyone cares about you very much. You don’t know that you haven’t come home these days, We are all in a hurry, and we don’t know how much effort it took to find you again.”
“And ah… After you come back now, we will take good care of you. We are all your closest relatives, no worse than your parents.
Besides, you still have a younger brother, isn’t Hongwei’s illness cured? You saw it just now, he became alive and well again…”
“Erda…”
“Hua’er,” Wang Tianxiao emphasized again softly: “If you are worried that no one will lead you in the dark, then let me do it. I promise that I will not let you suffer any more in this life. All you need to do is just Just start over.”
Hua’er’s eyes brightened slightly.
But soon went out again.
She slightly turned her face to the side, not looking into Wang Tianxiao’s eyes.
“Hua’er, I know you are very sad now, these things are not easy to happen to anyone, and it is impossible to resolve them easily.
So, let’s take our time. If there are two roads in front of you now, one is a wide but boundless abyss, and the other is a narrow path leading to the light, then you have to choose that path. Although it is a bit hard, it will lead to the light after all.
Child, you have to believe me, I understand your sadness deeply. The many sufferings I have experienced are actually almost the same as you, so I will not let you continue to be sad alone, because I was in such pain at that time, I actually hoped that someone could help me instead of letting me be a child , to bear everything silently.
As long as you want to move forward, then I will always be with you, and you will grow up beside me and your second aunt like Fangwa and Pengwa.
My child, life is a long journey. One day, when you stand in the light and look back at the present suffering, you will find that the pain that you thought was boundless has been compressed into a small corner by happiness. It can’t affect you in any way, the only function is to reflect how happy your life is. ”
Maybe it was Wang Tianxiao’s gentle tone, or maybe it was his caring words that finally broke through Hua’er’s defense, and big tears fell from her eyes.
At first, she just sobbed softly, and then suddenly buried her head in her arms, crying with her head in her arms.
Wang Tianxiao let out a long sigh of relief seeing her like this.
Finally… let it out.
The expressionless calm just now is the most dangerous state.
It’s as if a thick film is wrapped around the heart, and I don’t want to have any contact with the outside world for the time being. If I let it go, the film will become thicker and thicker, and finally it will completely become a shell, and there will be no more contact with the outside world. People can walk into her heart.
Wang Tianxiao was worried about this, so he kept talking to her.
It took a long time before the membrane was broken.
After all, he is a child, and his emotions are still very fragile, so it is not difficult to break it.
Children tend to need very little.
Many parents always feel that their children seem to want a lot, but in fact, what most children need in the end is nothing more than the care and attention of their parents.
You just need to give them a little more genuine love, and they will become very content.
Hua’er was born in such a family, with such excellent parents, it was doomed that no matter how sensible and obedient she was, she still didn’t get enough care and love.
And when she saw her parents abandoning her younger brother in the hospital, the blow to her heart was almost devastating.
Parents are patriarchal, and because of the money to see a doctor, they just gave up on their younger brother, and they didn’t even struggle much. If it was me, it would definitely end in the same way.
They have no love at all.
Some are just selfish, indifferent, and only vicious.
So, when Hua’er heard Wang Tianxiao’s warm words, she instantly lost her defense.
This was something she hadn’t even thought about before.
She never thought that there would be such warm words.
If her parents could give her this…even a few
If her parents could give her this… even a few tender moments, it would at least give her the capital to remember.
Unfortunately, until now, her father is gone and her mother is not around, and she still doesn’t feel this.
On Wang Tianxiao, I felt it for the first time.
It was only then that she realized that such a warm family relationship can still exist in the world.
Hua’er’s crying made the people outside worried. Li Yali and Zhang Yufeng both stood outside the door and looked inside.
But seeing Wang Tianxiao smiled at them, he felt relieved.
Wang Tianxiao patted Hua’er’s shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: “How about this, you see that the clothes on your body are all old, Erda will take you to buy some new clothes to change into. Girls, you must put yourself Dressed up beautifully, Hua’er is also a pretty little girl, isn’t she?”
Hua’er raised her face, tears in her eyes.
“Er Da, why are you so nice, but my parents are like that, am I my mother’s own child?”
“This…” Wang Tianxiao didn’t know how to answer, Wei Wei thought for a while, and comforted him: “Parents are the mirrors of children. Your parents didn’t do a good job, so you have to learn a lesson and take it as a warning. When you grow up , married, and have children, you must take good care of your children, so that your children can have a happy childhood from an early age.”
“my child…”
“Yes, everyone will have children. When you grow up, you will have children. Since you know that your parents are wrong, don’t you know what is right. You don’t do wrong things. , just do the right thing.”
Hua’er nodded.
Wang Tianxiao wiped away the tears from the child’s face with the back of his hand.
She didn’t know how long she hadn’t washed her face, and there were two black marks washed out by tears.
“Erda, do people have to have children?”
“Um?”
“If they don’t want to take good care of me, why did they give birth to me? Wouldn’t it be better for me not to come into this world, so that they don’t worry, and I won’t be so sad?”
Wang Tianxiao felt bitter in his heart.
He didn’t know how to answer this kind of question.
In fact, this question was asked by a child in his previous life.
But it was Wang Peng who asked the question.
In his previous life, he lived in a difficult life. There were problems with food and clothing at home, and he had three children who had to go to school.
Sometimes it is inevitable to be biased.
For example, when his daughter Wang Fang took the high school entrance examination, because of her poor maths, she still lacked more than 20 points to get in. He had to work hard to get enough tuition fees.
When his son Wang Peng was born, Wang Peng was excellent in his studies, but he felt that he could no longer train a high school student, so he asked Wang Peng not to go to high school, but to go to a technical secondary school.
Because the transfer is allocated.
In the end, Wang Peng secretly enrolled in high school instead of technical secondary school. He was very angry at one point.
After Wang Peng was admitted to a key high school with high scores, he was still not very happy…
Mainly because of lack of money.
If he has money, of course he hopes that his children can go to a good high school and a good university.
But he really couldn’t help it.
