Descendants of Pangu in the Great Desolation

Chapter 220 Learning to Be Strong
I walked into the Purple Bamboo Garden in a trance, pushed open the door and threw myself into the arms of my mother who was sitting on the bed, sobbing softly.My mother was taken aback by my sudden hug, she patted me on the back and asked softly: "Hai'er, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?" I shook my head and didn't speak, just indifferent sobbing.Mother gently stroked my head and said: "Since you don't want to say it, mother will not force you. If you want to cry, you can cry loudly. If you cry, everything will pass." Hearing what mother said, I felt even more sad, and the sadness that was pent up in my heart burst out, and I burst into tears.Crying and crying, I snuggled into my mother's arms and fell asleep.In my sleep, I saw my long-lost mother. She looked at me with kind eyes and told me to learn to be strong!

"Daddy, are you awake?" As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Ruiye's small face.I sat up, picked him up and put him on my lap, and asked, "Ye'er, where's grandma?" Rui Ye said, "Grandma said that today is our birthday and daddy's birthday, and she wants to cook for us personally." Food." I replied casually: "Oh! What about Han'er, why didn't you stay with you?" Rui Ye said again: "Grandma said that Daddy should take a good rest when he is tired, so he took my younger brother away. Let me Stay here and watch over Daddy!" Hearing what he said, I immediately felt a warm current flow into my heart, and I cupped his little face and kissed him lovingly. "Ye'er is so good. Let's go, go to the kitchen with Daddy to find grandma" I got up and got out of bed, picked up Ruiye and left the room, and walked to the kitchen in the south courtyard.

When I suddenly heard the news of my mother's death from Wang Xuena, it was as if my soul was taken away in an instant, and my mind went blank.I don't even remember how I left Bihai Pavilion, how I came here to Zizhuyuan, and I don't even remember whether Wang Xue, who came here to tell me the news, has left or not.I just remember that when I threw myself into my mother's arms, my mother's arms were so warm. In this warmth, I could vent to my heart's content and vent the dissatisfaction and sadness in my heart.At the same time, I can feel the deep love of my mother from this warmth. This love is so selfless and great.In her arms, I can completely relax, remove layers of restraints, and return to the real me.When I woke up, I had come out of the grief of my mother’s death, silently remembering the four words my mother said to me in the dream, “Learn to be strong!”

"Daddy!" As soon as I stepped into the south courtyard with Rui Ye in my arms, I saw Shui Han running towards me.I put down Rui Ye in my arms and asked: "Han'er, where's grandma?" Shui Han stretched out his little finger and pointed to the kitchen not far away and said, "Grandma is cooking delicious food." I said with a smile: "Really. Let's go and see what delicious food Grandma will make for us." As I said that, I took their hands from left to right and walked to the kitchen. "Grandma, Daddy is here." As soon as he walked into the kitchen, Shuihan shouted loudly into the kitchen.After a while, my mother came out of the kitchen wearing an apron, looked at me and asked, "how is it, how did you sleep?" I nodded lightly and said, "well, I haven't slept so well for a long time." I wiped my hands on the apron around my waist and said, "That's good. You take them aside to play for a while, and the sweet-scented osmanthus cake will be steamed after a while." I replied casually: "Okay. Han'er, Ye'er, let's go to the side to play, don't interfere with grandma's osmanthus cake." The two children heard that there will be osmanthus cake to eat, Le's mouth can hardly close, and he dragged me to the side, for fear of affecting Mother, it made them unable to eat delicious sweet-scented osmanthus cake in the end.

About a quarter of an hour later, my mother walked towards us with the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that had just come out of the cage.The mother put the dish on the stone table in the courtyard and said: "Come and try the sweet-scented osmanthus cake made by grandma. The taste is definitely better than the restaurant outside." The two young ones hurried over and looked at the snow-white cake in the dish. Sweet-scented osmanthus cake, I couldn't help swallowing my saliva. "If you want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake, wash your hands first. Whoever finishes washing first can eat an extra piece." I came to the stone table and said to the two young people.Hearing the words, the two little ones hurriedly ran to the kitchen, afraid that they would be slow and eat less than each other.Sitting on the stone bench, my mother waved to me and said, "Haier, sit down." I nodded and sat down on the stone bench near me. "Haier, mother, I don't know if I should ask you something?" Mother looked at me and asked softly.I looked at my mother's face and asked, "Mother, just ask, there's nothing wrong with it." My mother paused for a while and said, "Hai'er, why were you crying just now, can you tell mother to know?" ?” I looked at the two kids in the kitchen who were scrambling to wash their hands, but didn’t speak. "Hai'er, is there something inconvenient to say? If so, mother won't ask you." Seeing that I didn't answer, mother said.I turned my head and looked into mother's eyes and said: "Actually, it's nothing. I just feel that I have been busy taking care of Ye'er and Han'er for more than a year, and I rarely take care of my father and mother. I feel a little uncomfortable." Mother Hearing this, he said with a light smile: "This child, why did you come to mother to cry just because of this? Let Ye'er and Han'er hear it and not laugh at your father. Now that they are still young, of course you have to take care of them." That's fine. Besides, your father and I haven't reached the age of [-] or [-], so you don't need to worry about it." Then he paused and said: "Mother knows that it is hard for you to take care of them. My mother said, mother will help you take care of them." I smiled in relief and said, "Thank you, mother, but I can still hold on, so I don't need to trouble my mother to help me take care of them, so as not to make you angry." She smiled and said, "If they dare to make me angry, I'll spank their butts." As she spoke, she raised her hand and waved it in the air a few times.I smiled and said, "Even if mother really wants to beat them, daddy won't agree, daddy is very precious to them." As we were talking, the two girls ran out of the kitchen after washing their hands, and came to me , Rui Ye stretched out her little hand and said to me: "Daddy, I washed my hands first." As soon as Rui Ye finished speaking, Shuihan beside him said unwillingly: "Daddy, I washed my hands first." They both patted their hands lightly and said, "It's good, it's very clean." Shui Han looked at me and said, "Then can we eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake?" I smiled and said, "Let's eat it. Two yuan per person, Don't fight." The two boys responded in unison: "Yes." Then I hugged the two girls on the stone bench and sat down, and brought the food plate in front of them.The two children each grabbed a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and began to enjoy it.

"Daddy, here's for you." Rui Ye, who was sitting next to me, handed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his hand to me.I took a small bite of it, and Rui Ye hurriedly asked, "Daddy, is it delicious?" I nodded and said, "It's delicious. This is the most delicious sweet-scented osmanthus cake in the world." Rui Ye tilted The little head asked curiously: "Daddy, why do you say this sweet-scented osmanthus cake is the most delicious in the world?" I tapped his little nose lightly and said, "This is what grandma made for us, of course it is the most delicious cake. It's delicious." Rui Ye nodded in understanding, then handed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in front of her mother, and said, "Grandma, eat it." Mother smiled and said, "Grandma won't eat it, you should eat it yourself .” Rui Ye nodded, and began to eat.Seeing this, Shui Han hurriedly handed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in his hand to his mother and said: "Grandma will eat this piece from me, mine is the biggest and the most delicious." As soon as mother refused, Shui Han said: "Grandma must eat it. Eat. If grandma doesn't eat, Han'er will be angry." As he spoke, he pursed his lips.Seeing this, my mother said dumbfoundedly: "Well, grandma will have a bite too." She took a bite of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake as she spoke.Shui Han asked: "Delicious, grandma." Mother smiled and nodded, "It's delicious. Eat it quickly, or the sweet-scented osmanthus cake will be cold after a while, and it won't taste good." Shui Han smiled and ordered Nodded, and then began to eat.Not long after, the four pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes on the plate were swept away by the two of them.After finishing their snack, they wiped their mouths, jumped off the stone bench, grabbed my hand from left to right and said, "Daddy, come play with us!" I looked at my mother who was sitting across from me, and said to them: "Daddy is here to chat with grandma, you two can go and play by yourself." Shui Han shook his head repeatedly and said, "No. Daddy hasn't played with us for a long time. Daddy gave us a rare holiday today, so he must accompany us Let's go play." After speaking, Ruiye and Ruiye shook my arm like shaking Situ Jing.

"Hai'er, you can go play with them, I still have a lot of things to do," Mother said.Seeing that my mother said so, I couldn't refuse anymore, so I smiled at my mother in embarrassment and said: "Okay, since grandma doesn't need daddy to accompany me, daddy will accompany you two to play. Tell me, what do you want to play?" Rui Ye tilted her head and thought for a long time, then said: "The cat catches the mouse." I asked back: "Han'er, how about playing cat and mouse?" Shui Han nodded in agreement.I smiled and said to them, "Okay, Daddy will be a big tabby cat, and I will start catching you two little mice now." Then, I imitated a tabby cat and let out a "meow", indicating that the game had started for the two of them.Seeing this, the two boys ran out of the courtyard.I smiled and ran after them.

Looking at the three figures that were gradually going away, Zhou Xiaoyun smiled in relief, then got up and walked to the kitchen with the plate, continuing to be busy with the evening meal.
