He walks against the light with her

Chapter 74 Holding hands, huh?Didn't catch it!
"Central Hospital," said the second sister of the Chen family, "I tell you, you can go there and bring money. Mom sent it to the emergency room this time because of you, so you are responsible for the medical expenses, and we won't pay for it." A dime!"

At this time, Chen Yuexiang couldn't care less about money or not.

She nodded and agreed: "Okay, okay, wait for me for a while, I'll go in and change."

Back at the house, Miao Miao was woken up.

Xiaotuanzi rubbed his eyes: "Mom..."

Chen Yuexiang took off her pajamas, and put on some random clothes.

At dawn in the morning, as soon as the skin came into contact with the air, a row of fine and dense goose bumps appeared.

"Grandma is sick, mom is going to the hospital to take care of grandma," Chen Yuexiang coaxed Miao Miao to get dressed, "Mom will take you to find my sister later, will you follow my sister obediently today?"

Miao Miao is very obedient.

She has been good since she was a child, although she loves to act like a baby occasionally.

After getting dressed, Chen Yuexiang took the child to knock on Jiang Li's door.

Jiang Li woke up early.

Or rather haunted by nightmares, barely falling asleep.

In the middle of the night, she sat up, and the pillow was wet.

All sweat.

She dreamed that she had become a demon, a demon with a human body and a dragon tail.

In the black water prison with a foul smell, the evildoer let out a tragic roar, and outside the prison, there were the mournful chirping of ostriches.

As if responding to something.

"Knock knock knock..."

There was a knock on the door.

Jiang Li stood in front of the window: "The door is not locked."

Chen Yuexiang pushed the door, but didn't come in, just at the door, followed by Miao Miao: "Jiang Li, my mother's family has some urgent matters, can I trouble you to take care of Miao Miao these few days?"

Jiang Li turned around, glanced at Xiaotuanzi, and said nothing.

If you don't refuse, you agree.

Chen Yuexiang hurriedly said: "Thank you, then I'll go first, and Miao Miao will leave you alone."

After waiting for the people to leave, Miao Miao ran into the room with her short legs thumping.

She opened her hands, begging for a hug.

Probably being pestered by Xiaotuanzi a lot recently, Jiang Li habitually squatted down and picked her up.

"Sister, my mother's mother is sick, so my mother is going to the hospital. When my mother is sick one day, I will also go to the hospital to accompany her."

"Oh."

"Sister, what about your mother?"

Jiang Li glanced at the sky through the window.

It's blue, like it's been washed.

"Dead," she said.

……

On the first day, Chen Yuexiang didn't come back.

In the evening, Miao Miao sat at the door and asked Jiang Li, "Sister, when will Mom be back?"

Jiang Li said, "I don't know."

The next day, Chen Yuexiang still didn't come back.

Miao Miao's question was much simpler: "Sister, isn't mom back yet?"

Jiang Li replied, "Yes."

On the third day, Miao Miao stopped asking.

At eight o'clock in the evening, she stood up unsteadily, stepped on her chubby calf, and ran to the back room with a "thump, thump" and hugged Jiang Li.

"Sister, I'm hungry."

For dinner, Jiang Li went to a small restaurant in the town to buy a few small dishes at noon, and it was ready to eat after a little heat.

On the seventh day, Chen Yuexiang came back.

When she entered the room, she seemed to have been sucked out of her soul, wandering around, pale and haggard.

A black veil was pinned to her arm.

The old lady went.

Miao Miao, who hadn't seen Chen Yuexiang for several days, ran over: "Mom!"

Hearing the sound, Chen Yuexiang's eyes moved.

Jiang Li took good care of Xiaotuanzi, her face was ruddy, her eyes were squinted, and she was smiling.

"Miaomiao..."

"Mom..." The innocent little girl didn't know what happened.

The emotions that Chen Yuexiang had held back for a long time finally broke out.

She sat powerlessly on the ground, hugging the child and crying loudly.

Is it fair?
unfair.

Obviously she didn't do anything bad, why should she suffer the pain of losing her husband and mother?

If she really committed some sins in the past life, then all the retribution will be on her in this life. Why do people around her leave in pain one by one?

On the second day of guarding in the hospital, the old lady died.

Before dying, the old lady saw her alone.

"Yuexiang, you don't need to say anything, mom understands, you have difficulties, don't blame your brothers and sisters, they don't understand, it's okay, mom understands, mom doesn't blame you..."

Chen Yuexiang was crying so much that she couldn't utter a complete sentence: "Mom..."

The old lady's oxygen mask was removed, in order to leave these last words: "At home, I took out the old bricks under my bed, and there is a paper bag, which contains the money you refunded me last time, Yuexiang , Mom has nothing to leave you, the last bit of money is all for you, don’t wrong yourself in the future, mom loves you..."

"Mom, don't say it, don't say it, you will be fine, you will be fine..." Chen Yuexiang said, tears rolled down, and there was no time to wipe them, one after another, blurring her vision.

This is the last sentence of the old lady. She has never studied, and she only wants peace of mind all her life: "Yuexiang, we must be worthy of ourselves as human beings, and we must not do things that violate our conscience, huh?"

Something against conscience...

That 20.

It turns out that the old lady's heart is like a mirror, even if she doesn't say anything, she still understands.

"Mom, I..." The faint panting sound disappeared, the old lady closed her eyes and would never wake up again, Chen Yuexiang's eyes were empty, "Mom!"

Jiang Li glanced at Chen Yuexiang who was crying out of breath holding Miao Miao, and walked out with a cold expression.

As soon as she stepped over the threshold, she bumped into Shen Yan.

Seeing each other, he asked, "Are you okay?"

Jiang Li shook his head.

It's not that she's dead, mother, what can happen to her?

"I heard about Mrs. Zhou." When Chen Yuexiang was still organizing the old lady's funeral, the news reached Fufu Village. Shen Yan learned about it from Grandma Chunhua, "Convey it for me, please forgive me."

Jiang Li asked him: "Are you worried about Sister Chen?"

"Of course not," Shen Yan denied, "I'm worried about you."

Without her mother, Chen Yuexiang will definitely be depressed for a long time. She lives here, and Shen Yan is worried that it will affect her.

"It's none of my business." She had no empathy at all. Seeing people cry, no matter what it was for, it couldn't affect her emotions.

There was a cry coming from the back room, Shen Yan thought for a while, and said, "Shall I walk around with you?"

Jiang Li didn't want to stay here, since he had nowhere to go anyway: "Okay."

It's almost April, the afternoon sun is warm, and the spring breeze is lingering around, making it a bit cool.

Shen Yan walked about a step behind her, looked at her hand hanging by her side, hesitated again and again, and finally made up her mind to hold her, but before she could touch her fingertips, Jiang Li suddenly made a move.

She stuffed her hands into her pockets.

Shen Yan: ...

I have never discovered that the alley that I pass every day can be so long.

Jiang Li's footsteps stopped suddenly.

There are several red plum trees in front of me.

The grass is beautiful in the old spring, and Anita Mui's makeup in the past. (From "Yuan Ri" by Li Shimin)
After a long time, Jiang Li spoke, her voice was very low, as if she was talking to herself: "She likes this kind of flower very much, and she has the fragrance of this kind of flower on her body."
