The scumbag brother is finally accepted

Lu Qingyuan was lying on his side on the colorful cloud, with his hands under his head, his demure and cautious appearance was like a little animal that was still in shock, uneasy.

In the hazy and foggy environment, Lu Qingyuan walked on a bustling street, which was strange and far away.It seems to have passed through many times, vaguely came, vaguely remembered.

Looking across the crowd, he suddenly saw a familiar figure, ordinary in the crowd, but in his eyes, it was the only bright color in black and white.

I saw a woman dressed in short brown hemp, short in stature, with dull skin, leading a child and walking forward angrily.That was his mother, and the thin little Qingyuan was following behind.

Xiao Qingyuan was dragged forward without stopping, with a bright red slap mark on her face, looking at the angry mother in front of her, she blinked her bright and pure deer eyes, and her slender eyelashes were still stained with crystal The teardrops looked extraordinarily lovely and pitiful.

Shaking mother's hand, said cautiously: "Mother, we just left, will they be angry? Will they catch up?"

Without looking back, Mother walked forward without hesitation, as if escaping from the mansion behind her, and said angrily: "It's none of my business if they get angry? I chase after them if I want to. I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door if I haven't done anything wrong. It's them, fighting against me." Can you slander people casually because you are rich and powerful? You were raised by me, so I don’t know? If you didn’t steal it, you didn’t steal it!”

Xiao Qingyuan couldn't keep up with her, so he trotted behind, holding his mother's hand tightly, lest he be scattered by the crowd.

"Didn't mother make clothes for their family in the future? In this case, mother will have no money. Don't be angry, mother. I will apologize to them. As long as they believe that I didn't steal the jade pendant, they won't beat me."

The mother stopped when she heard the sound, turned to look at Xiao Qingyuan, frowned, bent down and raised an index finger towards him, and said sullenly: "Listen! If you didn't do anything wrong, you didn't do anything wrong. A man can't just bow his head casually. Otherwise, your apology is as cheap as a rotten leaf thrown away, and no one will take it seriously. Understand?"

Xiao Qingyuan looked at her half-understanding, nodded in a daze, and blinked.Mother looked at his innocent, harmless and innocent appearance, and her mood improved a lot. She poked his face with her index finger, her eyes were full of love and distress.The flesh that fell from his body was raised with all his heart and soul, so there is no reason for others to beat him if he wants to.

The mother straightened up, put her hips on her hips with a proud look, and said: "Besides, even if they don't want the clothes I made, they still have the Wang family, the Zhou family and the Li family, and some people want them. Your mother is such a good embroidery worker." , are you afraid that you won’t be able to sell it?”

Xiao Qingyuan looked up at her, under the scorching sun and clear sky, her smile was bright and brilliant, as if she had never been decadent or sad at all.At least, the mother he saw was always like this, confident and gentle, as she said, good things will always happen.

Seeing his mother's satisfied smile, Xiao Qingyuan also laughed along with her, stepped forward and hugged her waist tightly, and showed off in a proud tone: "Mother is the most powerful!"

The mother bent down to pick him up, continued to stride forward, and said happily: "That's not it!"

Xiao Qingyuan put his arms around his mother's neck, lay on her shoulders, was about to fall asleep in a daze, and asked softly: "Mother, when will Daddy go home? I want to see him..."

When mother heard the word "Daddy", her expression darkened for a moment, and then she smiled again, and replied: "I'll be back soon, Daddy said that I'm doing a big thing, it's very big, and I'll be there when I'm done." go home."

Xiao Qingyuan narrowed his eyes and asked vaguely: "How big is it? Is it bigger than the sky?"

Mother nodded, as if to comfort him and herself, and said with a smile: "It's bigger than the sky!"

Mother hugged Xiao Qingyuan through the crowd, and happily walked towards home.It seems that all the difficulties and melancholy in life have nothing to do with them, as long as they are by their side, all unhappiness and dissatisfaction will go away!

Lu Qingyuan stood behind them, followed closely, staring at his mother, reluctant to leave for a moment.At the moment when I saw her, all the grievances and hardships came to my heart. It has been a long time, I haven't nestled in my mother's arms and acted like a baby, just like when I was a child, there will be no more days like that...

"Mother..."

Lu Qingyuan murmured softly, and ran over without hesitation, pushed aside the pedestrians around him, rushed behind his mother and opened his arms to hug her.However, he was in vain, only the cold air was surrounded by his hands, and the figure in front of him had long since disappeared.

Turning around and looking again, I saw my mother sitting in front of the loom, looking at the needle and thread in her hand intently, with a serious expression, and the loom creaked.

Fortunately, it is still there.

Lu Qingyuan smiled gratifiedly and breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly the door was opened, Xiao Qingyuan was both aggrieved and angry, pouted, stomped his feet and strode over, sat down beside his mother, folded his hands in his arms, and said angrily: "Huh!"

My mother saw that his face was flushed, he didn't speak, but was sullen, so she stopped what she was doing, put down her needle and thread, and leaned over to coax him: "Who made my Qingqing angry? Tell mother, mother will help you." You spank their asses!"

Xiao Qingyuan turned his head to look at his mother, puffed his cheeks, pouted and said, "Why did mother call me Qingqing? They all laughed at me and said it was a girl's name!"

The mother couldn't help lowering her head and laughing, she tapped his head lightly with the shuttle in her hand, and said with a smile: "That's not true, you were deceived by them."

After finishing speaking, he put down the shuttle, bent down and hugged Xiao Qingyuan and sat on his lap, shaking gently, resting his head on his head and resting his chin on his shoulder, and said softly: "Qingqing means Qingqing ah!"

Xiao Qingyuan didn't seem to understand, looked up at her, and asked doubtfully, "Huh?"

Mother looked at his crooked eyebrows, smiled, lowered her head and kissed him on the cheek, and said, "Kiss, do you understand?"

Xiao Qingyuan touched the place where he was kissed, nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and said, "I know this, is that really what you mean?"

The mother continued to hug him and swayed from side to side, and whispered in his ear: "Of course, Qingqing will meet someone very important in her life in the future. You like her very much, and she likes you very much. Your name is If she is affectionate, she will kiss you."

Xiao Qingyuan nodded half-understanding, then shook his head, as if he didn't quite understand, and asked, "Mother, what do you mean by liking...?"

The mother looked out the door and thought about it seriously, as if she was thinking about the most suitable words to teach her baby to understand the most beautiful feelings in the world.

After pondering for a moment, my mother slowly said: "I like it... no matter how sad Qingqing is, as long as I see that person, I will be happy all of a sudden."

Xiao Qingyuan suddenly realized "Oh", then turned around and hugged his mother's neck tightly, rubbed against her shoulder, his well-behaved appearance was very lovable, and said: "If you say that, then I must be I like my mother!"

The years are quiet and good, nothing more than that.

Lu Qingyuan stood in the corner, looking at the two cuddling tightly, his heart ached, he resisted the urge to rush over to hug his mother, just watched quietly, lest his mother would disappear again as soon as he passed by.

Suddenly the fog rises, and the screen changes.The two people who had just leaned on had disappeared, so I looked back.I saw Xiao Qingyuan throwing off the quilt abruptly, stepping on the ground barefoot, tiptoeing by the door, watching his mother pack up the tailor-made clothes, leave in a hurry with the bundle, and close the door before leaving.

Seeing his mother walking away, Xiao Qingyuan quickly ran back to the bed, put on his clothes indiscriminately without stopping, and left home in a hurry, with a random set of socks and shoes.

Walking all the way, I muttered in a low voice: "Today is my mother's birthday, I must buy a gift for my mother, give her a surprise, my mother will be happy!"

Xiao Qingyuan laughed while talking, as if he was proud of his little thoughts, thinking of his mother smiling happily when he saw the gift prepared by him, he couldn't help laughing happily.It made passers-by on the road look at him like a fool, lest they avoid him.

After walking for a long time, we came to a lively market.There were so many kinds of gadgets that he was dazzled and didn't know what to buy for his mother.

"What should I buy to make my mother happy?"

Xiao Qingyuan touched his chin like an adult, pretended to look at the stalls on the street, pretended to be knowledgeable, and picked and picked, but actually knew nothing.

Passing by a pastry shop, Xiao Qingyuan stood at the corner smelling the fragrance and took a look in. Suddenly, he saw the eight-treasure pastry on the counter.He has eaten this pastry, it was his birthday long ago, his mother bought it for him, it is only a small piece, but it is very delicious, it is the best thing he has ever eaten since then, And it's my mother's favorite pastry.

It seems, mother said, because it was the first time she ate eight-treasure crisps, it was bought by her father, and she liked it very much.

So, he likes it too.

Xiao Qingyuan looked at the Babao Cake, couldn't help but salivate, and suddenly had an idea in his heart.

Why don't you just buy eight-treasure crisps for your mother!

Xiao Qingyuan quickly ran from the corner to the counter, stood on tiptoe and looked at the shopkeeper, pointed to the Babao Crispy and said, "Master, I want a piece of this."

The shopkeeper was wiping the jade pot in his hand without turning his head. He casually glanced at the Babao Cake on the counter, and then glanced at the thin and thin Xiao Qingyuan. ? One ten words."

Xiao Qingyuan tilted his head and blinked at him suspiciously, Shi Wen?How much is it?

"I do not have money…"

"Hmph, you want it even if you don't have money?" The shopkeeper seemed to have seen that he had no money, and then he shook the rag in his hand like a plague god, frowned in disgust, and said, "Go! How cool is it?" Just wait, don't make trouble."

After Xiao Qingyuan was driven away, he reluctantly looked at the eight-treasure crisps on the counter, and walked forward with his head drooping in frustration, looking back at every step, as if he could get it just by looking at it.

Walking past the pastry shop, Xiao Qingyuan looked absently at the stalls on the side of the road.With the idea of ​​buying eight-treasure crisps, other things can no longer be seen, and I only want to buy eight-treasure crisps for my mother.

Walking aimlessly, he suddenly bumped into the shop waiter who was yelling at the side of the road. He was so scared that he apologized repeatedly, for fear that the other party would blame him.The shop waiter was about to open his mouth to scold the other party for not having long eyes, but he looked down and saw a child, so he couldn't get angry, so he could only wave his hand and said, "Hurry up, walk and watch!"

Xiao Qingyuan nodded and was about to leave when he suddenly stopped and looked up at him and asked, "Big brother, do you know how to get rich?"

The shop clerk gave him a blank look, and said, "Cut, I still want to know this question!"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xiao Qingyuan and asked, "You are a child, what do you think about money?"

Xiao Qingyuan lowered his head, hesitated to speak, thought for a while, and finally told him everything.

The shop waiter nodded after listening, and sighed: "I didn't expect you to be so filial at such a young age, and I can't help you. Why don't I ask the shopkeeper if he would like to let you do some work?"

Xiao Qingyuan nodded delightedly, looked at him and smiled and said, "Thank you big brother! Big brother will be very, very rich when he is so good!"

The shop clerk raised his head and laughed twice, scratched his head, and said, "I owe you a good word!"

Xiao Qingyuan waited outside the store, watching the conversation between the waiter and the shopkeeper, he was so disturbed that he didn't dare to go forward or leave.After waiting for a long time, the waiter came over with a smile on his face and said, "It's done. The shopkeeper said that you go to the kitchen to help wash the vegetables and dishes. It will be ten cents for you."

"Ten cents!"

Xiao Qingyuan's eyes widened and his mouth opened, as if ten cents was an astronomical figure to him, a huge sum of money.Ten cents is just enough to buy Babao crisps, that's great, the shopkeeper and the big brother are good people!

Following the waiter from the shop to the kitchen, without saying a word, he rolled up his sleeves and squatted in the sink, scooped up a basin of water and began to choose and wash vegetables.

After working for a long time, a pair of young hands were also wrinkled and peeled off from the water.Xiao Qingyuan wiped his hands nonchalantly, seeing that it was getting late, he ran to the front desk excitedly, looked at the cashier and said, "Brother, I've finished washing."

The accountant looked at the ledger on the table, drew in circles with a brush in his hand, without raising his head, then picked up the three Wen coins at hand and threw it over, saying: "Here, wages."

Xiao Qingyuan picked them up one by one, a little puzzled, and said: "Big brother, there are only three, didn't you say there were ten?"

The accountant still didn't raise his head, and said impatiently in the tone of a beggar: "That's all the shopkeeper said, if you want to pull me down, hurry up and don't hinder me from doing things."

"But--"

"You can't go!"

This time the accountant raised his head and raised his hand, as if he was about to hit him, Xiao Qingyuan instinctively raised his hand to protect his head and ran away.

Holding the three Wen coins in his hand, Xiao Qingyuan felt a little worried.There is no ten Wen, only three Wen, will the master still sell him Babao Cake?No matter, go ask, what if the master is a good person?

It was getting late and there was nothing else to do.Xiao Qingyuan trotted all the way to the shop, his shoes and socks were already soaked, and he could hear a "ziliu" when he stepped on it, and the water in the socks was squeezed out.

The hem, sleeves, and chest of the clothes were full of water and oil stains, and there was a faint smell of oily smoke, all because of the smell on the clothes and hair after staying in the kitchen for most of the day.

Xiao Qingyuan ran into the shop, stood on tiptoe, pawed the edge of the counter with his pale hands, revealed a pair of black deer eyes, blinked, looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Master, I only have three Wen, you can sell me half a penny." ?"

The shopkeeper glanced at him and picked up the feather duster beside him, waved it, and said, "Go, go, I told you not to make trouble, didn't you hear me?"

Xiao Qingyuan was a little anxious, tried to stand on tiptoe, and said eagerly: "Master, you are a good man, just sell me half of it, I can wash vegetables and dishes for you, and do work for you. I really want this , please! I only need half of it!"

The shopkeeper suddenly raised his hand and pulled it down, and the wooden handle of the feather duster hit Xiao Qingyuan's finger hard.

"what!!!"

Xiao Qingyuan instinctively withdrew his hand, there was already a red mark on his finger, the pain made him burst into tears.

"Get out of here quickly, or I'll beat you to death!"

"My lord, I really need this, you just sell it to me—"

Before Xiao Qingyuan finished speaking, the shopkeeper who came to the side ignored him and went straight to serve him.

Looking at the Babao Crispy in front of him, at the red fingers from the beating, and at the three pennies in his hands that were wet with sweat.Xiao Qingyuan was a little at a loss, looking at the sky outside, there was really no other way right now.What to do, it's already dark, mother must have gone home, but he hasn't bought a gift yet, he is really useless, he can't do anything without mother.

Xiao Qingyuan was so anxious that tears fell straight down, he stood there blankly, looking at the people coming and going around him, no one could help him, what should he do.

Seeing the shopkeeper greeting the guests with a smile, Xiao Qingyuan felt a little angry and unwilling.He approached the counter in a strange way, stared at the Babaosu, and was silent for a moment.

Afterwards, Xiao Qingyuan put the three pennies in his hand on the counter, broke off half of it and quickly put it into his arms, and ran away, rushing out of the shop regardless of his heart, his heart would jump out of his throat.

Hearing the movement, the shopkeeper turned around and looked at the counter. He didn't see Xiao Qingyuan's figure, but saw the eight-treasure crisp that had been torn apart. He was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, and shouted: "You little bastard, how dare you steal my things? See if I don't break his leg! You guys chase after me, and if you catch him, beat him to death! Let's see if he dares to steal!"

After receiving the order, several guys in the store put down their work and ran out quickly to catch the thief.

Xiao Qingyuan ran all the way to protect the Babaosu in his arms, for fear of falling out.I'm going home soon, mother can eat eight-treasure crisps, this time it wasn't dad who bought it, he bought it, will mother be happy?

Thinking of this, Xiao Qingyuan was overjoyed, as long as his mother was happy, he could do anything.

Mother had long stood at the door of the house looking out, waiting for him to come back.Seeing Xiao Qingyuan running over, he asked worriedly: "Where did you go, Qingqing, why did you come back so late?"

Xiao Qingyuan ran up to her mother, panting, and couldn't speak clearly, took out the eight-treasure cake from her arms and held it in front of her eyes, saying intermittently: "Mother, I... I bought... I bought this for you. , your favorite, I don’t use it, I can only buy half of it. When I grow up and make a lot of money, I will buy you a lot, more than the clouds in the sky. Mother likes the eight-treasure cake bought by daddy, can you Also like what I bought, today...today is your birthday, I want you to be happy!"

Mother's eyes filled with tears, she looked at Xiao Qingyuan in front of her, lowered her head and kissed his forehead, held his raised little hand with both hands, her voice was a little choked, and said: "Mother is very happy, very very happy."

Xiao Qingyuan saw that her mother was shedding tears, so she hurriedly stood on tiptoe and wiped her eyes and cheeks with her small hands, imitating the adult's tone and coaxing: "Mother, stop crying, crying at night will wet the bed, stop crying. "

Mother suddenly burst into laughter, took his hand and kissed him.

Suddenly, a man's voice sounded in the distance, shouting: "Over there! Hurry up!"

After a while, I saw four or five men with big, five, and three rough surrounding their mother and daughter, grabbing Xiao Qingyuan's hair, and scolding: "Wow, you little bastard, if you don't learn how to steal, you're looking for death, aren't you!"

The mother pushed the man away violently, held Xiao Qingyuan in her arms, glared at them viciously, like a lioness guarding a cub, and said: "Who are you?"

The man pointed to Xiao Qingyuan and said: "He stole something from our store, teach him a lesson today!"

Xiao Qingyuan shouted at him: "I didn't steal it! I paid and put it on the counter!"

Hearing the sound, the man strode forward and slapped him, the crisp sound almost pierced his eardrums.

"what!!!"

"Little bastard! You said you didn't steal it, I think you won't cry when you see the coffin! Hit me!!"

A few people around rolled up their sleeves and were about to make a move, the mother bent down and grabbed a handful of sand from the ground and threw them at them, scolding: "You are unreasonably making trouble to frame my son, be careful I will go to the yamen to sue you, and your shop will close down tomorrow! -"

"Snapped!!!"

Before Mother could finish speaking, the man slapped him again, stronger than before, and there were marks of five fingers on his cheeks in an instant.

Xiao Qingyuan turned his back to his mother, facing those people, opened his hands to protect his mother behind him, and shouted: "You are not allowed to beat my mother! Go away! Go away!"

"Snapped!!!"

With another slap, blood oozed from the corner of Xiao Qingyuan's mouth, the red marks on his face became redder, half of his face was swollen, and his eyes were filled with tears from the pain.

The mother hugged him tightly, protected him in her arms, looked at the people around and said: "If someone dies today, you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around. I advise everyone to be careful!"

The man was disapproving, snorted coldly, and said: "Human life is at stake, but you, that is animal life, not human life. Brothers, come, the shopkeeper has spoken, and he will be beaten to death. Those who don't work hard will be detained." wages!"

Hearing the sound, the people around rushed forward and grabbed her mother's hair, punched her in the lower abdomen, slapped her stomach, kicked her calf.The mother protected Xiao Qingyuan under her body, hugged him tightly with both hands, and endured the beatings from those people. She lay on the ground and was beaten fiercely with sticks, kicked, and smashed on the ground with her hair.

Xiao Qingyuan wailed loudly in his mother's arms, clutching her clothes and screaming: "You are not allowed to hit my mother! You are not allowed to hit my mother! You are all bad guys! Bad guys! Go away! Don't hit me Mother!"

Struggling to death without deterrence, those men looked up to the sky and laughed, holding their mother in their arms and sneering: "It really is a beast, so capable of carrying it! Let's see how long you can carry it!"

"Don't hit my mother! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhvhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, shhh, shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Xiao Qingyuan cried and roared hoarsely, her mother's breathing became weaker and weaker, and gradually...cannot be heard...

The blood flowed down Mother's cheek, drop by drop, hitting Xiao Qingyuan's face, the hot temperature seemed to be burning his skin, the smell of rust became stronger, and the sound of breathing in his ears gradually disappeared...

"Why is she not moving? You go and see?"

"It seems that I'm not breathing, can't I, so unbeaten?"

"It doesn't matter, hurry up, go back and tell the shopkeeper!"

"Let's go!"

……

Xiao Qingyuan heard the footsteps getting farther and farther away, gently pushed his mother, and called out cautiously: "Mother..."

However, the mother did not answer.

"Mother and the others are gone, get up quickly, and I will help you go home."

The mother still didn't answer.

"Mother can get up now."

"Mother?"

"Mother?"

There were calls, but no one answered.

"Mother..."

"No, don't, mother! Don't!! You answer me, I am Qingqing, it is Qingqing who is calling you! Mother!!! Let's go home, please, Qingqing will make longevity noodles for you, give You wash your feet, yes, and... and this!"

Xiao Qingyuan took out the Eight Treasure Cake again, carefully blew and patted the sand on it, then broke off a little and stuffed it into the mother's mouth, saying: "Mother, please taste it, I will buy it for you Yes, your favorite eight-treasure cake, is it delicious?"

The person in front of her was motionless, her lips were chapped, pale and bloodless, and her chin was still slowly dripping blood, bit by bit, dripping with her temperature.

"Mother..."

"Ah!!! No! I was wrong, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I didn't steal anything, but I was wrong. I kowtowed to them and returned my mother to me, okay! I was wrong, mother, I Wrong, please promise me, please? Please, please look at me, please, I am wrong, I am wrong, I am wrong, I am wrong, I am wrong!"

"I was wrong……"

"Mother, please..."

"Take a bite..."

"Please..."

Xiao Qingyuan hugged his mother's head and looked up to the sky in pain, pleading and repenting over and over again, but no one answered in the dim night.

The eyes gradually became dark, the voice gradually, gradually lowered, and slowly closed his eyes, everything was running away, from his hands, from his side, like the temperature of a mother.

……

"Son, child, wake up..."

Xiao Qingyuan slowly opened his eyes.

In summer, the sun is shining brightly, the breeze is blowing the white clouds, and everything is as usual.

however……

Xiao Qingyuan sat up suddenly, but saw a strange woman standing beside her with a bowl in her hand, but there was no mother around her anymore.

"Mother, where's mother?"

Xiao Qingyuan looked at the woman in panic, her thin body was trembling, her face was pale, her lips were chapped, her cheeks were sunken, she had been dizzy and hungry for two days, and when she woke up again, everything was different.

"Your mother's body stinks. We've already buried it in a barren grave. You haven't eaten for two days before drinking."

Xiao Qingyuan yelled, pushed the woman away suddenly, and rushed out desperately, she couldn't live without her mother, and she couldn't live without him.

I'm going to the barren graveyard to find my mother!But... where are the barren graves?

Xiao Qingyuan stumbled to the intersection, looked at the forked road, and wanted to ask someone.

however……

Streets full of people, bustling crowds, vendors hawking along the street.

Fire trees and silver flowers, people come and go.

As if lost, dizzy.

In front is a restaurant full of guests.Surrounded by a steady stream of pedestrians.Behind him is a wine shop full of seats.

Up is the sky, down is the earth.

Between heaven and earth, there has been a lot of turmoil from now on, and this excitement has nothing to do with him anymore.

He is a child without a mother.

Qingqing... I don't have a mother anymore.

There is no more mother.
