Li Chengfeng and others had understood before that this old woman had obviously taken advantage of her son and was the largest landowner in the village. She originally thought she was a stingy and evil woman with a good life and a good life, but she didn't expect that she actually lived here. A short, small, shabby place. Li Chengfeng and others were still a little unconvinced. When they followed the limping Mother He through the door, they found that the house was completely bare, the furniture was rudimentary, damaged everywhere and they were reluctant to throw it away.
When Li Chengfeng saw He's mother busy making tea, he couldn't help but asked, "Why does Auntie live in such a simple way?"
Mother He carefully took out the treasured tea bag from the bedside. She brought boiled water, made tea, and said with a smile: "I am an old woman who has only a few days to live. How can I live in such a nice place?" What are you doing? You are sleeping, even on the dragon bed and on this fire kang. Is it possible that by covering the emperor with a quilt, I can live a few more years?"
Zhao Feiyue was born in the royal family. Seeing that she could not stay away from the emperor in even a few words, she made fun of him. He raised his eyebrows and was about to scold him. Li Chengfeng saw this and quickly stopped him, changed the subject and said, "But if Senior Brother He Zhu knew My aunt is so poor, I'm afraid... she won't be able to sleep or eat well!"
He's mother rubbed her hands with a smile, her expression a little sad: "He is good at home. He has been too busy for more than ten years and hasn't come back to take a look..." But soon she laughed again, with light in her eyes. : "...I think he is practicing and being valued by the master and the leader in the mountain, right?"
Li Chengfeng, Zhao Xiaobao and Han Tianxing felt like giant stones in their hearts. They felt extremely uncomfortable. Their noses were sore and itchy, and they were speechless for a while.
After a while, Li Chengfeng forced a smile and said: "Senior Brother He Zhu is upright, honest and honest, and is very popular with the pavilion master and head. He is currently holding an important position in the sect and is on a mission away from home, so he cannot come back for a while. Home..." As he spoke, he took out a brocade bag from his arms and pushed it over with both hands: "This is what Senior Brother He Zhu asked us to bring. Although it is not much, it is also a sign of filial piety from Senior Brother He Zhu."
Mother He was stunned for a moment. She looked at Li Chengfeng blankly, with a look of horror in her eyes. She said: "My son... has never sent me a copper plate. He has always asked for it from me." Qian Yin, what happened today..."
As she spoke, she suddenly said in a trembling voice: "My son, has something happened?"
This sentence immediately made Zhao Xiaobao and Han Tianxing's eyes turn red. They almost shed tears, but as soon as the tears reached their eye sockets, they lowered their heads and held back with all their strength.
Li Chengfeng's eyes turned red, and he tried not to reveal his secret. He was about to speak, but He's mother watched their words and understood immediately when she saw their reactions. She was shocked and subconsciously took a step back. The kettle in her hand fell to the ground. , the scalding hot water was spilled on the feet without even noticing.
She staggered back and leaned against the dim wall. Then she braced herself, and then slowly sat down. The energy in her eyes quickly dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye. Her originally sharp and bright eyes Suddenly it became hazy and turbid.
Mother He had to be strong all her life. She turned her back and covered her mouth with both hands to prevent herself from crying, but the sobs coming out of her held back throat were like a pair of invisible hands. It grabbed Li Chengfeng's and his others' hearts so hard that they couldn't help but shed tears.
Li Chengfeng glared at Zhao Xiaobao and Han Tianxing who were about to cry. He took a deep breath, stepped forward with a forced smile, and said, "Auntie, I was wrong. Senior Brother He Zhu has made great contributions this time. These are all Senior Brother He Zhu kept some of what the Pavilion Master rewarded, and let us bring the rest to my aunt. As for them... they were moved by the scene and thought of their own mother."
Mother He raised her head, with tears still in her eyes, and light came out of her hazy, yellow eyes: "Seriously?"
Li Chengfeng nodded and smiled: "Seriously!"
He's mother immediately burst into laughter and stood up, wiping away her tears and said, "My old lady is overthinking it, ah, distinguished guest, sit down, sit down quickly, I will go and boil some water now."
Li Chengfeng quickly stopped her and said with a smile: "I don't dare to disturb my aunt. We have other errands, so I'll leave now."
Mother He said sarcastically: "How to do this?"
Li Chengfeng took He's mother's hand, put the brocade bag into her hand, and said: "Auntie, take good care of yourself, so that we can go back to deliver the mission to Senior Brother He Zhu. We have to rush to the gods along the way. Jing, we really can’t delay.”
He's mother pinched the kit and withdrew her hand. She was at a loss as she watched Li Chengfeng and others salute her. She uneasily hid aside to avoid it. When she was about to return the gift, Li Chengfeng and others had already left the door. .
After Li Chengfeng and others went out, they all let out a sigh of relief. They felt that there was something in the dark and simple room that made it difficult for practitioners like them to breathe.
But he didn't go far when he heard He's mother chasing after him again, shouting: "Dear guest, please stay!"
Li Chengfeng and others stopped and watched He's mother limping after her. Not only was she holding the kit, but also a small cloth bag. She quickly arrived in front of Li Chengfeng and grabbed Li Chengfeng involuntarily. He held up his hand, raised his head, looked at Li Chengfeng eagerly, and said: "My son will be a great cultivator in the future, and there are many places to use money. It's better to take this money back and give it to my son." ! As an old woman, I can’t be hungry or cold, so what do I need with all this money? Please take the trouble to do it, dear guest, okay?”
Li Chengfeng felt sour and almost shed tears on the spot. Holding the cloth bag and the brocade bag in his hands, he felt that his hands were full of fine silver and soft banknotes. They didn't weigh much, but when he weighed them, they felt It's as heavy as a thousand catties.
Li Chengfeng forced a smile and said: "Don't worry, Auntie, I... I will definitely bring you!"
Mother He grinned and said, "By the way, don't worry about my son. My old woman is in very good health and can live for more than ten years. I can wait for him!"
After saying these words, Han Tianxing couldn't help but turned away and wiped his tears hard. He suddenly thought of his old mother.
Li Chengfeng held back tears and forced a smile on his face: "Don't worry, aunt, I will definitely convey this message!"
Mother He smiled as she watched Li Chengfeng and others turn and leave. She couldn't help but said loudly: "The distinguished guest told my son that if he has time, he will come back often!"
Li Chengfeng didn't dare to look back because he was about to cry: "I know! I will definitely convey it!"
Li Chengfeng also thought of his mother at this moment. Isn't she just like He's mother? She scrimped on food and clothing, but gave all the best to her son, hoping that his son would become a great man and that he would prosper.
Zhao Feiyue also forgot about He's mother's vulgarity, she choked and said: "Why do you still charge all this money?"
Li Chengfeng said bitterly: "If I don't accept him, she will know that Senior Brother He Zhu is no longer here. Only by accepting him can she feel at ease and have the courage to continue living."
After saying this, Zhao Xiaobao and Han Tianxing couldn't help but burst into tears. Even Zhao Feiyue couldn't help but have red eyes and said, "What a pity the hearts of parents in the world."
Li Chengfeng whispered: "The spring silkworms will not dry up until they die, and the wax torches will not dry up until they turn to ashes and tears!"
Li Chengfeng looked back and saw He's mother standing at the door, looking at them eagerly. When Li Chengfeng turned back, she grinned again, waved to them from a distance, and said loudly: "Dear guests You must persuade my son to come back more often!"
The hot tears in Li Chengfeng's eye sockets finally couldn't be restrained and rolled down.
It is said that Li Shangyin's poem is about love, but is this poem really about love
How many lovers are there in the world
But how many people can do this for each other
But there are so many parents in the world, but the vast majority of parents are like "the silkworms will die when they die, and the tears will dry up when the candles turn to ashes"! They have worked hard for their children and their hair has turned gray. In the end, all they want is for their children to come home often!
Practitioners transcend life and death and escape from reincarnation, but in the end they are still a group of people!
These people have seven emotions and six desires, how can they forget their human relations and family ties
Li Chengfeng did not dare to look back and led them away quickly, leaving only the figure of He's mother alone at the door of the simple and short house. She stood alone, getting farther and farther, getting smaller and smaller, and gradually became invisible. .
