Chapter 42 Tears are the most useless thing in the world
The filial sons and grandsons in this room felt sad when they saw the people who came to see them off. Alas, my little sister has managed to get through her best in this life. At the end of the day, with so many children and grandchildren coming to see her off, her life has not been in vain.
.
Gu Xiaomei looked at this scene with a smile, and there was a touch of melancholy in her eyes. So this is the feeling before death? In fact, it is not as scary as she imagined, maybe because there are too many people here, and she is so lively
I have a headache and don’t feel uncomfortable anymore.
"Okay, don't cry. We are human beings, and things like this will happen to us. I have lived so long, and I have already had enough."
The people around looked at the withered and thin Gu Xiaomei, especially her children and grandchildren, and almost couldn't help but cry again, but they still didn't dare to continue crying and make her uncomfortable for the sake of Gu Xiaomei's extreme weakness.
Li Da felt extremely sad. He looked at his mother who had almost only a handful of bones left in front of him, and felt sour in his eyes. His mother had never had a good life since she married into the Li family. This
Decades have passed, working hard for them and their descendants, but there has never been a day of leisure. At this time, Li Da remembered in a trance the promise he made to his mother when he was a child.
"From now on, I will definitely let my mother live a good life. I will not let her starve or suffer from cold. I will make her the best mother in the world!"
The promises he made when he was a child are still vivid in his mind, but when did his sincere feelings change? Perhaps after he got married, his wife and children appeared one after another, gradually replacing his mother's position in his heart. In addition,
His mother had never been good at speaking. No matter what grievances she had, she would always swallow them by herself, so he gradually felt that it was okay for his mother to suffer some grievances. After all, which old woman in the village didn't come like this?
But he didn't think so a long time ago. When he was young, he would stay up late at night because of someone gossiping about Gu Xiaomei, sneak into other people's homes, and throw dog feces into their yards. If someone found out, he would call the dogs to chase him.
Running all over the village.
What was the difference between him at that time and him now? Was it time that turned him into what he is now?
Li Da held Gu Xiaomei's withered and thin hand, feeling bitter and unspeakable. In the end, he could only shout out the name he had been calling his whole life.
"mother--"
The bitterness and unfinished words contained in this shout were clearly revealed. Several brothers and sisters around him couldn't help but burst into tears when Li Da shouted.
Lao Gu on the side looked at this scene, his lips moved, but in the end he didn't say anything. He quietly walked out of the house and cooked a bowl of ginseng soup for his sister. At this last moment, the little sister finally no longer had to grit his teeth and persist.
, she can freely leave this world that is full of suffering for her. He should be happy, why can't he control his tears?
Once upon a time, Lao Gutou stubbornly believed that tears are the most useless thing in the world, because they are only useful in front of people who care about you. As for other people, seeing your tears, they may feel that their eyes are dirty. But
Now, even though no one was watching, Lao Gutou couldn't help but burst into tears.
When a person is extremely uncomfortable and depressed, tears bursting out at this time is a kind of protection for the body, protecting the body from getting into trouble due to excessive sadness.
Perhaps, this is why people have tears.
Lao Gutou shed tears while adding firewood to the stove. Amidst the crackling sound of dry firewood, he seemed to have lost his strong outer skin all of a sudden, leaving only a brother who was worried about his sister.
.
"grandfather……"
Changsheng had chased after Lao Gutou since she saw something wrong with his face. Now, looking at him crying silently, she felt uncomfortable in her heart. But she didn't know how to persuade others, so she could only squat on Lao Gutou's head.
By your side, prove that you are still there.
In fact, Lao Gutou was indeed comforted. He looked at the little Changsheng next to him and felt that the pain in his heart had improved a lot. He quickly cooked the ginseng, and Lao Gutou brought it back to Gu Xiaomei.
At this time, Li Da's wife was crying sadly.
"Mom, in the past, it was all my fault as a daughter-in-law, because I didn't know what was good and what was good. Which mother-in-law would be so kind to her daughter-in-law? Even I couldn't do it, but I still felt dissatisfied all day long.
I’m really sorry…”
"I am a mother too. Everything is wrong. Don't blame me. I will change it..."
Several daughters-in-law showed their true feelings, which made others burst into tears. In fact, they are not bad people, but who doesn't think about problems from a perspective that is beneficial to themselves? This is human nature, they just think
Gu Xiaomei is not as important as their husbands and children. There are some people in this world who take their mother-in-law very seriously, but not many.
Gu Xiaomei also knows this truth. She has lived for decades, which is long enough. What kind of things have she not seen? This is just one of the small things.
"Okay, don't cry. I know everything. You will know this life as you live it, but that's just the way it is. I'm going to die. After I leave, you have to be kind.
We are all of the same family, why can't we sit down and discuss it slowly? You brothers and sisters should be together since childhood. I'm not worried. It's just that when this person grows up, he will always have a wife and children who are closer to him than his brothers and sisters. Others
I don’t ask for anything, I just hope that when you are doing things, you can think more about your past friendship. If this brother-sister relationship slowly wears away, it would be better to stay far away and never see each other again in the future..."
When she was here, this family was still a big family, but after she left, these children also had children of their own, and they would always think more about their wives and children. Although she knew in her heart that this was normal, Gu Xiaomei thought about it for herself
The second brother is as good as ever. Thinking about other families in the village, I just feel a sigh of relief.
Maybe there are brothers and sisters because the parents are here.
Hearing Gu Xiaomei's words, the children of the Li family almost cried. Their mother's words reminded them of the pure feelings of their childhood, and when they thought about their mother's situation at this time, their hearts became even more desolate.
At this time, Lao Gutou brought the fried ginseng soup over and gave it to little sister Gu to drink carefully. It would be great if this bowl of concoction could make little sister feel more comfortable.
Gu Xiaomei's face looked good at the moment. She drank the bowl of ginseng soup in one gulp, and then carefully arranged the situation of her children after her death. In front of the respected old people of Lijia Village and Gujia Village, Gu Xiaomei gave her children
The families were divided.
"mother!"
As soon as they heard Gu Xiaomei's words, the Li Da brothers became a little anxious and couldn't help but speak. On the other hand, the wives beside them couldn't help but look at each other with a touch of relief in their eyes.
It’s New Year’s Day. I wish you all a happy new year, all the best, and all your wishes come true~~~
