Huayi Universe

Chapter 32
On Friday evening, Universe reported to Hua Yi about the work of the past two days, and Hua Yi's voice on the other end of the phone was slightly hoarse: "Cosmos, my mother's condition has been very bad these two days, and I can't eat anymore. Will I be separated from my mother forever soon?"

The universe was silent for a few seconds and said: "There is no permanent banquet in the world. At every stage of our life, someone will accompany you on a journey. All we can do is to cherish the time that everyone spends with us. Listen to your voice , It must be very hard to take care of your mother these two days. Rest early and pay attention to your body. Your group of customers are very demanding, and you still need to come back to take over. Now I understand what it means that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility .”

Although Hua Yi didn't wait for the comfort she wanted, the words of the universe made her mood that was about to collapse a little bit better, and she told herself rationally that she should take a break. I really didn't sleep well these few nights. I was afraid that my mother would be gone when I woke up.

The morning in Changchun was quiet on Saturday. Hua Yi, who originally liked to sleep late, was awakened by a nightmare. She dreamed that her mother fell into the river and struggled in pain, but she could only watch helplessly from the sidelines.After waking up, Hua Yi, who was extremely anxious, rushed to her mother's room, and was relieved to see her mother chatting happily with her father while kneading melon seeds.When Hua Yi's mother saw Hua Yi coming, she smiled and said to Hua Yi, "You see, although I can't eat anything now, I still taste good."

The more Hua Yi saw her mother endured the pain and pretended to be optimistic, the sadder she felt.I thought that I was already suffering like this, and in order not to worry myself, I had to pretend like a normal person.Just when I was about to collapse emotionally, the doorbell rang.

Hua Yi's father opened the door and saw a handsome little girl with delicate features and slightly sunny eyes standing outside the door, who greeted him politely: "Hi Uncle, I'm Hua Yi's colleague Universe, and I'm here to visit my aunt.

"You are the universe. I often hear Hua Yi mentioning you. Hua Yi's leave of absence these days has spoiled you. Come in, come in."

Universe walked to Hua Yi's mother's bed, and saw that Hua Yi's mother's lips were pale, her face was bloodless, and she was so weak that she was supported by a breath, and a gust of wind could easily blow her down.Hua Yi was very surprised by the arrival of the universe, "How did you find this place?" Before the universe could speak, Hua Yi's mother said weakly at the side: "You are the universe, Hua Yi, go outside to see your dad If you need help, your colleague is probably already busy in the kitchen right now."

Seeing Hua Yi walk away, the universe slowly walked to Hua Yi's mother, and said politely: "Auntie, you deliberately dismissed your daughter, do you have something to say to me, just say it, As long as I can do it, I will do it.”

Hua Yi's mother smiled gratifiedly and said: "Hua Yi did not misunderstand the person. Looking at you at such a young age, I feel that you are much more mature than our Hua Yi. My daughter has been stubborn since she was a child and has her own ideas. I remember taking her to her grandma's house during the Chinese New Year when she was a child. Grandma rarely saw her, so she gave her some lucky money. She was only 6 years old at that time. She found that her grandma gave her more money than other children. She felt that her grandma was not I was so angry that I threw the red envelope all over the place. Her father chased her with a whip and beat her, but she refused to admit his mistake."

Universe smiled knowingly and said, "She has a temper like her, and now no one in our branch dares to provoke her."

Hua Yi's mother slowly put away her smile, and continued worryingly: "I know I don't have much time, and the one I can't let go of is her. Hua Yi had a leader before who was not very good. Hua Yi admired him very much at first. Yes, I wanted to accept his pursuit, but I didn't expect him to do a lot of bad things quietly behind Yi Yi's back. Yi Yi was also sad for a long time because of this incident, and kept accusing himself of seeing the wrong person.
Looking at Hua Yi's mother's lost look, Universe said: "Auntie, justice may be late, but it will never be absent. Someone like this will punish him sooner or later."

Hua Yi's mother looked at the righteous young man sitting next to her. This upright appearance was somewhat similar to her own daughter. No wonder the two could become good friends. Hua Yi's mother then said to the universe: "My daughter has been I protect it very well, or maybe I protect it too well. I hope you can enlighten her more in the future, and enlighten her to let go of this painful memory. If possible, it is best to replace me emotionally to help her get well. Close." Universe nodded earnestly at the side twice, seeing Hua Yi's mother's exhausted appearance, and didn't say anything more.

In the evening, Hua Yi's father prepared three dishes and one soup. Because Hua Yi's mother couldn't eat and was afraid of spoiling everyone's interest, she asked everyone to have a good meal in the living room and sleep alone in the room for a while.The atmosphere was extremely quiet during the meal, only the occasional sound of tableware colliding with each other was heard.

Hua Yi's father took a few mouthfuls of food quickly, put down the bowl and chopsticks and said to Universe, "You can stay here tonight, Universe. You and Hua Yi sleep in the same room. It's not safe for a girl to live outside at night." Then Then he said to Hua Yi: "You and the universe take your time, I'll go and see your mother."

Hua Yi looked at the universe and said, "Can you share a room with me? I can take a shower in my room, and there are pajamas in the closet. You can take a shower and rest after you finish your meal." Hua Yi's face showed tired.

In order to ease Hua Yi's mood, the universe jokingly said: "I can, it's not that we haven't slept, you also go to bed early today, you look in the mirror yourself, how tired you are, if you fall down, you Dad doesn't have to take care of two people alone."

In the middle of the night, Hua Yi was moved by the words of the universe at dinner, obediently came to the bed and lay down beside the universe, "Can you hug me?" Pressing under his waist, and then put his arm under Hua Yi's neck.

Hua Yi closed her eyes and said to the universe: "You know, I haven't been hugged like this for a long time. When I was a child, my mother was afraid that I would roll off the bed and that it would hurt me, so I used the little space below my waist to hold me. Give me one arm and hold me to sleep." Hua Yi fell asleep unconsciously while talking.

Early the next morning, Hua Yi woke up and learned that her mother had passed away last night, and her father kept watch all night. The funeral car picked up Hua Yi's mother early the next morning, and her father was crying I can't cry.Hua Yi did not shed a single tear, but quietly dealt with the funeral.

Hua Yi didn't have any facial expressions on her face, and said calmly to the universe: "You go back first, and I'll come back after I finish handling all the things here. I feel much more relaxed now that my mother is gone, and she doesn't need to Don't suffer any more pain, you don't have to worry about me."
