“At this moment, Ah Xiu was like a child that no one wanted, squatting on the ground, crying and bending over, crying and hoarse voice.”

“But what Ah Xiu doesn’t know is that.”

“At the corner of the alley, her mother leaned against the mottled alley wall, and her face was already in tears.”

“The reason why she works hard to make money, the reason why she spits on herself, she just wants Ah Xiu to study well and not follow her old path in the future.”

“‘Ah Xiu, it’s my mother who is dirty, it’s my mother who is sorry for you…’ the mother choked silently.

Immediately, she took a deep breath and turned to walk towards Axiu.

“An umbrella was held on Ah Xiu’s head and shielded her from the wind and rain.”

Ah Xiu slowly raised his head and looked.

“‘Mother!!!’ At this moment, Ah Xiu burst into tears, and all grievances were vented in his heart. ”

“‘Mom, I didn’t do dirty things, I really didn’t!’ She buried her head in her mother’s arms, crying loudly in the rain. ”

“The mother patted her shoulder lightly, and kept whispering softly in her mouth; I know, my mother knows…'”

“Then, my mother went under the bed, took out a tattered cash box formed by countless large and small tickets, counted and counted from it, and gathered sixty taels of silver.”

“This is her life savings, and she wants to keep the money to send Ah Xiu to study in the academy in the future.”

“‘With the money you have there, it should be enough to pay back to the person who bought you.'” The mother said. ”

“Later, many people asked her why she didn’t let Ah Xiu leave and go to a rich and noble family to be a maid.”

“Although my status is a little lowly and humble, it is better to stay in this small town for the rest of my life.”

The mother was silent for a long time before she raised her head and said with a smile: [Because of Axiu……. She was also the baby I held high above my head. 】”

“At that moment, this mother, who had been in the kiln all her life, had an indescribable glow on her face.”

“If I had to add an adjective to this brilliance, it would be maternal love.”

“She has been humble enough in this life, low enough for a long time, and she can’t let her daughter be humble and lowly all her life like her.”

“Later, the rich gentleman came back and wanted to take Ah Xiu.”

“The mother and the one hundred taels of silver taels she had worked so hard to scrape together were viciously beaten to the ground by the rich gentry.”

“And just then, a teenager appeared.”

“He was dressed in a brocade dress, he was clean all over, and his face was full of confidence.”

“He doesn’t seem to be in the shed where the people at the bottom live, he is completely out of place with this poor, dirty, smelly place.”

“This young man spent another hundred taels to send the rich gentleman away.”

“At that moment, the dirty A Xiu, looking at the young man in brocade clothes, easily solved her troubles, inexplicably, she lowered her head, and a feeling of shame surged in her heart.”

“He is like the sun in the sky, and she is a rotten tree root that rots in the dirt and never sees the light.”

After this incident, this Axiu and this teenager began to get closer.”

“The young man was surprised to find that this girl from a bad background was amazingly knowledgeable, no less than him.”

“The two began to play, began to chant poetry, and began to discuss the south and the north.”

“Ah Xiu’s heart was opened for the first time, and she became sunny, cheerful, and vigorous.”

“She felt that this boy was a light that saved her.”

“However, when her mother found out about this, she was furious like never before.”

“‘The people are the young master of the Ma family, and they are born with a golden soup spoon! And you? Your mother is a prostitute, and you don’t know who your father is! Why do you stay with people? What are you fantasizing about? Could it be that you, the native chicken, still want to fly on the branches and become a phoenix? ’

“‘Remember, you are not a man of the world!’ ”

“‘From now on, you are not allowed to interact again!’ ”

“The mother used all the snarky words and taunted her mercilessly and sarcastically ridiculed her.”

“At that moment, Ah Xiu burst into tears.”

“Ah Xiu has always been a very well-behaved child, since she was a child, she has never rebelled against her mother, and she has always listened to her mother.”

“But this time, Ah Xiu had his own idea.”

“On the surface, she no longer seems to interact with the boy, but in fact, taking advantage of her mother, she will always secretly meet the boy, and in the sound of cicadas, they will talk about astronomy and geography and the outside world.”

“Time is like ungraspable sand, slowly swimming through your fingertips.”

“This year, Ah Xiu is fifteen years old.”

“This year, my mother contracted a cold illness.”

“As long as it was night, my mother would tremble and cry cold.”

“Ah Xiu, on the other hand, will cover her mother’s feet every time, and in the end she will be cold, and her mother’s feet will be hot.”

“Until one day, there was a blizzard in the sky.”

“On this day, the snow was exceptionally heavy and drowned over the ankles.”

“After Ah Xiu settled her mother, she went out to do odd jobs.”

“That’s right, at this time, Ah Xiu was already able to be alone, and after her mother fell ill, she should have carried the burden of the whole family.”

“After doing odd jobs, Ah Xiu came to the most luxurious mansion in town full of joy,”

“That is the mansion of the Ma family, and it is also the place where the boy who turned into that light in her heart lived.”

“The two of them made an appointment to see the snow today.”

“She shrunk and knocked on the door, greeted by someone she had never seen before.”

“‘Oh, the people of the Ma family moved to Fucheng three days ago, and this is the letter that the young master of the Ma family asked me to hand over to you.’ ”

Ah Xiu opened the envelope, and there was a paragraph written neatly on it:

[Girl Axiu, I’m going to Fucheng, we have a new business over there, and I’m in a hurry, so please allow me not to say goodbye. ] 】

[There is a saying, I have been buried in my heart for a long, long time, and I have been hesitating whether to say it or not, but since I am leaving this time, it will be difficult to see each other in this life, so I will say it anyway. ] 】

[Actually, the first time we met, I appeared there because your mother came to my house a few days ago and begged my father to help her once. 】

[I don’t know what happened to my father and your mother, but they agreed. 】

[Therefore, on that day, I appeared by great coincidence, and even took out a hundred taels of silver to solve the trouble.] 】

[Later, you came to me many times, which actually caused me a lot of trouble, but I have always been in the way of face, and I can’t bear to hurt you, so I didn’t say it. ] 】

[This time I went to Fucheng, and my family arranged a marriage for me, it was a girl who was right from me, so I hope that Axiu girl will not come to trouble me again. ] 】

[Axiu girl, you are a very good girl, I hope you will cherish more and less stormy for the rest of your life in the future. ] 】

[After all this, do not think, do not disturb, do not seek.] 】

“Ah Xiu looked at this stack of letters, and suddenly felt that all the strength of his whole body was drained, and suddenly he felt that the sky was falling.”

“The light that briefly shone into her heart became fragmented.”

“She still seems to be the rotten root of the rotten tree that rots in the land and never sees the light.”

“Ah Xiu was in ashes, and he left with a lost soul.”

“The snow fell on her body one by one, and the biting cold wind blew her face.”

“She didn’t cry.”

“She just felt that the world in front of her was so gray and so breathless.”

“And when she got home, her mother was already lying under the covers, covered in cold.”

“‘Mom, are you cold?’ Ah Xiu forced a smile on his face. ”

“All along, in this world, all she had was her mother.”

“Just like her mother, in this world, only Ah Xiu has always had.”

“The mother did not respond, and Ah Xiu buried her mother’s frozen feet in her arms, wanting to cover the heat.”

“‘Why isn’t it hot?’ Ah Xiu kept breathing, kept rubbing her hands, lifted her clothes, and put her mother’s feet in her arms. ”

“But this time, my mother’s feet were never hot again.”

“When the neighbor next door carried his mother’s body out, he said to Ah Xiuyun lightly: ‘Dead.’ When. ”

Ah Xiu sat dumbly on the snow, his eyes staring at the sky blankly.

“Then, she reacted violently, ran like crazy and chased after her, she fell on the snow, got up, and continued to stagger towards her mother’s body.”

She reached out and gently pulled her mother’s frosty hair. The mother lay there quietly, her eyes closed, as if asleep, waiting for her to return. ”

“In fact, what people are most afraid of is not the sudden collapse of the sky, but the fact that the world gently kills all your thoughts.”

“‘Huh…'”

“‘Don’t live, don’t live~ it’s not interesting.'” ”

“Taking off her coat and covering her mother’s body, Ah Xiu slowly lay down on her side, put her arms around her mother’s waist as usual, and coaxed her to be happy.”

“‘Mom, I’m late, you go slowly, wait for me.’ ”

“‘The world is too dirty, people are too dirty, I’m too tired, it’s not interesting, it’s really not interesting…'”

“‘In this world, I will never come again…'”
