The successive misfortunes that occurred in the Sixty-Nine Houses completely destroyed Mei Mei's spiritual support. Although Yuan Hui lived up to Xie Yongdong's trust and patiently and meticulously enlightened and persuaded her, he still could not effectively prevent the tragedy from happening.
To a large extent, Meimei's introverted, timid character with a strong sense of self-esteem and shame has been pushed into a corner by the rumors in the city. She cannot accept the reality in front of her, and her despair makes her feel more and more.
: My own existence in this world has lost its meaning, so I secretly made up my mind to commit suicide.
On the second day of the "Loy Krathong Festival", Lin Meihong got up early in the morning, sat alone in front of the dressing table, dressed up carefully, and put on the gorgeous clothes that Yongdong bought for herself on the day of her daughter's accident.
He even tied a white silk scarf that he had kept from his wedding on his neck. He went out and took a shuttle bus from Anchuan City to Suqi County, returning to his hometown after being away for many days.
Now only his mother and nanny Agui are left at home in Jade Garden, Suqi County. Shi Dazhu's family, who used to live here temporarily, moved out a few weeks ago and moved into a newly purchased old house.
It's only about ten minutes away from here. After Ban Niang passed away, the lonely mother regarded Shi Dazhu and Juanzi as her own children. Every weekend, she always called Shi Dazhu's family over for a reunion. The relationship between the two families was as if
Back to the past again.
The mother was surprised to see that Meimei was back, and she felt very happy. She did not pay much attention to Lin Meihong's depressed appearance, because in her mother's impression, her daughter-in-law was relatively introverted and always taciturn no matter what the occasion.
When her mother saw her, she suddenly remembered that Yong Xia had told her that something might happen to Yongdong.
So her mother asked with concern: "Where is Yongdong? Is he okay?" Lin Meihong replied dully: "Okay, he is at work." "Where is Nannan? Didn't you bring her back?" "It's okay for Nannan, she is at work.
Go to school." "Oh! Meimei, you don't know that Yongdong doesn't care about the child. If you leave, who will take care of your daughter?" the mother said in a reproachful tone.
"Mom, it's okay. My daughter is at Yuan Hui's place. It's okay, so don't worry." "Even if Yuan Hui takes care of my daughter, my mother can't take care of her more thoughtfully." Lin Meihong did not answer her mother-in-law's words, but just said mechanically.
nodded.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were silent for a long time.
Mother asked again: "Meimei, do you have anything to do when you come back this time?" Lin Meihong continued to reply dully: "I came back this time on a business trip and came to see you. In addition, I also wanted to visit my parents' graves.
Look." When she mentioned Lin Meihong's biological parents, her mother's nose couldn't help but feel sour, her eyes became a little moist, and the corners of her mouth trembled. The scene from the past clearly appeared in her mind...
When Lin Meihong saw that she had brought back the sad memories of her mother-in-law, she hurriedly sat next to her to comfort her.
The mother wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes, let out a long sigh, and said to herself: "Meimei, your parents are really good people. They left early and left you alone. Your mother sent you to her before she died."
I failed to fulfill the responsibility entrusted to me. I'm sorry for your parents!" She continued, "Meimei! If the biggest mistake my mother has ever made in her life is to let you be my daughter-in-law. In fact, you didn't say
, Mom also knows that you and Yongdong are not happy together. If time could go back, Mom would never put you and Yongdong together. Let you be my biological daughter, a hero, Dong'er's
Sister." Lin Meihong was so moved by her mother-in-law's emotional words that she couldn't help but shed tears. She leaned closely on her mother-in-law's shoulder and said with tears in her eyes: "Mom, don't blame yourself, you are the best person in this world.
My best person, I know you are good to me. Every time Yongdong and I get into trouble, mom always favors me." Meimei continued, "Because of these things, Yongdong is often secretly unconvinced." Lin Meihong said coquettishly.
, which turned her mother's sadness into joy. She took over Meimei's words and said kindly: "If he is not convinced, let him be. If anyone dares to bully us Meimei, my old woman will bully him." Her mother's wise words made her feel happy.
Lin Meihong burst into tears and laughed. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked more and more, and the time was approaching noon before they knew it.
After lunch, Lin Meihong said goodbye to her mother, Agui and the others.
She came to the street, bought a bouquet of golden chrysanthemums in a flower shop, took a taxi, and rushed to the public cemetery at the foot of Qixia Mountain. In front of the tomb where her biological parents were buried together, she respectfully presented a
Bouquet of flowers.
After clearing the weeds from her parents' shared grave, she came to the office of the public cemetery management office. A male staff member greeted her.
Lin Meihong said to the staff: "I want to reserve a cemetery for my deceased family members to be buried together." "Okay, where do you want to choose the cemetery?" The staff then took out a schematic diagram of the cemetery and asked Meimei to choose. Lin Meihong
I chose a cemetery not far from my parents.
After completing the formalities, Lin Meihong put all the formality vouchers and a letter written last night into an envelope.
Before leaving, the staff from the management office casually asked: "Is the joint grave you booked to bury a couple?" "Yes! It is intended to bury a very loving couple and their daughter." Meimei.
Answer in the affirmative.
After hearing this, the staff at the management office nodded in understanding. Suddenly, he found that the eyes of the lady in front of him were already filled with rolling tears...
After leaving the public cemetery, Lin Meihong stood in front of the mailbox outside the gate for a long time before reluctantly putting the letter into the mailbox and catching the bus to Qixia Mountain.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, she climbed up Qixia Mountain - Lin Meihong began to walk to the last stop of her short life.
Qixia Mountain is located due east of Suqi County. It is not only a famous holy land of Buddhist Pure Land Sect, but also a sacred mountain of tea culture famous at home and abroad. Qixia Mountain is steep and majestic. Its main peak is surrounded by five peaks, shaped like a lotus, so
It is called Lotus Peak. On the north side of Lotus Peak is a steep cliff, which the locals call Sheshen Cliff.
When Lin Meihong climbed to the top of the lotus, it was already approaching dusk.
At this time, the sun on the horizon has hidden behind the distant mountains, leaving only a trace of residual light, splashing the golden color on the edge of the thick clouds. Under the cover of the clouds and mist, the afterglow of the setting sun transforms into dazzling and eye-catching rays.
The rays of rays, flickering on and off, painted the sky, clouds and mountains into a unified color. The dreamlike clouds and mists entangled in the mountains and ravines gradually dissipated, and the misty mountain peaks also revealed their reality from the vast sea of clouds.
face.
As if Lin Meihong was on her deathbed, she seemed to see the door of heaven slowly opening, a white light shining on her body, and the daughter and her parents who had been thinking about her day and night were walking towards her with a smile...
Suddenly, several female tourists on the Sheshen Cliff let out a burst of shrill screams. People saw a white silk scarf draw a graceful arc in the air, fluttering like a flying butterfly, and float down the Sheshen Cliff lightly.
.
At this moment, people vaguely heard several dull bells ringing from Qixia Temple on the mountainside. Dang! - Dang! - Dang! - The bells echoed for a long time in the empty and deep valleys of the high peaks.
inside.
The curling echo, like the soul of Meihong, turned into a wisp of green smoke and lingered on a chastity and filial piety memorial archway in the valley for a long time. A breeze blew gently, and was mixed with the monks' chanting of Buddha.
Voice.
Namo Amitabha - Namo Amitabha - Namo Amitabha - In the Seven Treasures Pond in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, a huge, bright lotus flower finally bloomed...
