Chapter 57 Stars

Seeing that someone was also sent home, Suning planned to leave after chatting for a while. The mother and son were obviously uncomfortable and uncomfortable eating with her as an outsider watching.

"Aunt Zhang, I'll go back first."

Thinking of her unstoppable coughing, she still said, "If you have time, why don't you go to the hospital? Even if it's just for the sake of your little one Where's Qiu? If it's for medical expenses, I can lend you some first." Zhang Qin shook his head when he heard this, but he couldn't stop coughing when he was about to say something.

It took a long time before he stopped. He removed the handkerchief covering his mouth and stuffed it quietly under his body.

She didn't need to look at the fishy rusty smell in her mouth to know that she was coughing up blood again, and the sadness in her eyes spread instantly.

She is not afraid of death, but Xiaoqiu is still young. What should she do if Xiaoqiu is gone?

"Ahem...Suning, can I beg you..."

"No."

As if he knew what she wanted to say next, Suning refused without thinking.

She has lost her mother and knows what it is like to be without a mother.

A mother is at home only when she is there. A daughter is a treasure only when her mother is there and is loved by others... No one can replace her.

Besides, a cough is not a serious illness. Even if it turns into pneumonia, there is hope of cure as long as it is treated.

So in her opinion, it is far from the point of being singled out.

"Xiao Qiu, ahem... you go outside to eat ahem~ Go and eat, mommy has something to say to my sister... ahem..."

Xiaoqiu looked at her mother, then turned her head Looking at Suning, he nodded and said hello obediently.

He took his own food out of the empty tea cup, deliberately leaving all the meat to his mother, and walked out of the house briskly following the beam of the flashlight.

After putting the cup away first, Xiaoqiu turned back and took out a bench, and then began to sit under the eaves with his head down and eat deliciously.

Zhang Qin's eyes never left her daughter. When she sat down to eat properly and there was no other movement, she turned to Suning and lowered her voice, coughing and speaking slowly and with difficulty.

...

It turns out that Zhang Qin is not a native of southern Hunan but a native of Shanghai. He was just kidnapped and sold into the mountains seven years ago.

I don’t know whether her luck is good or bad.

Although the family selling it was poor, it was not like other people in the village who treated the purchased daughter-in-law like an animal.

Although I won’t beat or kick her, I won’t be kind enough to let her go.

It wasn't until she became pregnant that they relaxed their vigilance towards her and loosened her hand ropes and anklets.

Zhang Qin, who had never given up the idea of ​​​​escape, wisely knew that she would never be able to escape from the mountains and forests on her own.

Because of her pregnancy, she began to slowly change. She seemed to accept her fate and had to accept it for the sake of the child in her belly. She learned from this and how to do the work inside and outside the house well.

Not only did she gain the trust of her husband's family and completely integrate into the life of the village, she also found out all the ways in and out of the mountains while working.

As her belly grew bigger and bigger, and it was estimated that it was time to give birth, Zhang Qin deliberately caused an accident of premature birth, risking her two lives on the conscience of the family that had not been completely wiped out.

As a result, she won the bet, successfully arrived at the hospital in the town, and successfully escaped with her child in her arms.

But fate always plays tricks on people, escaping from the tiger's den and entering the wolf's den again.

Zhang Qin did not go into details about what happened next. She just told Suning that she did not cough because of illness but suffered serious internal injuries.

"I can't take Xiaoqiu away from here, I can only ask you, Suning, I know I shouldn't force you, but I'm sorry, I really don't have much time..."

So big After saying this, she rarely coughed, and the look on her face made Suning even more frightened.

"This is the address of my home. Please, I can't go home alive, but I hope Xiaoqiu...Xiaoqiu can go home..."

Suning with a sore throat His eyes were hot, and he took the carefully folded piece of paper without refusing this time.

After seven years, she finally couldn't go back. She could no longer hear her family members calling her by her nickname, could no longer see the familiar alley, and could no longer eat her favorite bite. Food...

"Tell my parents and brother who are waiting at home that my daughter...can go home this time..."

Zhang Qin smiled slightly as she spoke, and seemed to see something she wanted to see in her eyes. Everything, I closed my eyes with great satisfaction.

The frozen figure of Xiaoqiu sitting at the door slowly resumed her movements, one bite at a time, until she finished all the food in the cup, then she burst into tears and opened her mouth to silently call out "Mom" again and again.

She knew that her mother was in pain every day. She couldn't eat or sleep. Brother Guzi said that she just didn't trust her, so she held on and didn't dare to leave even if it was more painful to live.

She has to reassure her mother obediently and not to make any noise to her——

'Mom, if it is like Brother Guzi said, everything in the sky is without pain, then...then you Just go, don't worry about Qiuqiu, don't wait for Qiuqiu to stay. ''Mom, I will be obedient and not cry or make trouble, and you must also be obedient and leave with peace of mind...'

Xiao Qiu sobbed silently until her face turned red, but she still did not dare to cry loudly. Make even one sound.

It wasn’t until my little body was embraced by a big warm embrace and I heard those words of certainty that I could no longer cry without restraint.

Hearing the noise not far away, Guzi quickly ran into the yard with a bunch of radishes.

Seeing Xiaoqiu who was crying and unable to stop twitching, she had expected it, but she couldn't help but her eyes turned red. She opened and closed them several times before a trembling voice came out of her mouth.

“Aunt Qin is gone?”

Holding Xiaoqiu tightly with both arms, Suning nodded silently to the boy.

Tears fell instantly. Thinking of the person who had made him feel as warm as a mother for the past six months, Gu Zi straightened his back, took out the prepared linen and straw from his arms and tied it on his head without hesitation. .

Leading his younger siblings into the house, he knelt down beside her and sent her away as a filial son.

"Aunt Qin, what you said during the day...I will remember it. Don't worry, I can take good care of Winter Melon and they can take good care of Xiaoqiu..."

"Uuuuuuu, brother, I'm scared, Why doesn't Aunt Qin say anything~"

"Aunt Qin...Aunt Qin is going to become a star, little pumpkin, don't be afraid."

"Yes, are you the same as your parents? Then Aunt Qin, remember to stay close to them, so that when the little pumpkin misses you, you can see it at a glance, and you don’t have to look for it~"

"Okay, Aunt Qin likes you so much, and will seriously consider your opinions. , now... let's watch her quietly, okay?"

"Okay, Aunt Qin, little pumpkin, stop talking, you can become a star~"

What kind of cute people are they? The conversation of a child in my head is obviously full of innocence, but it feels so heavy in my ears that I can't help but feel sad.

Looking up at the sky, Suning also wanted to know if there were her favorite 'stars' behind the thick clouds.

......

I know that Zhang Qin’s wish is to return to Shanghai and the home that she has longed for.

So I did not choose the burial here, but let Xiaoqiu take her back after cremation.

Suning was the only adult present. Except for Gu Zi, the other little ones didn’t understand the difference between burial and cremation.

Until daybreak, good people turned into small boxes. They were even more puzzled and at the same time seemed to vaguely understand the meaning of people disappearing.

"Sister Ningning, can I see Xiaoqiu again?"

Knowing that Xiaoqiu had to leave with her, Little Pumpkin was very reluctant to let go, not counting her brothers. There is only Xiaoqiu as a friend.

Zhang Qin turned into a small box, and Xiao Qiu also disappeared.

The little pumpkin, who was holding his mouth, had two tears in his eyes, "Can Xiaoqiu not leave?"

"Little Pumpkin, what did brother tell you just now? Xiaoqiu is going home. We have to be happy for her. I will take you to see her when you grow up!"

"Really "Really?"

"Looking at what you said, I'm still suspicious. When did I lie to you, brother?"

"Well, then."
< br>Although he is still young, he clearly knows the difference between a real home. Little Pumpkin wiped away her tears and showed a sweet smile to them both, "Sister Ningning, please take Xiaoqiu home quickly!"

"So good~"

Touching her head, the hair under her hands was not smooth and even a little greasy, but there was really no trace of disgust in Suning's eyes.

After spending just one night together, these children really made her fall in love with them.

"Guzi, have you remembered my home address clearly? No matter what the situation or time, you must come to me if you need anything."

"Sister Ning, I have written it down, thank you."


The young man knew the kindness of her words and saw how serious she was.

When people are stuck in a low-lying quagmire, they can never forget the person who is willing to give warmth. One sentence can be remembered for a lifetime.
