door of eternal life

[The text of this chapter: When they met for the first time, due to an accident, they had company, commitment, and concern, but fate quietly planted a seed to play tricks on the world. 】

Nearly a year of bickering came to an abrupt end.

Yi Tianyu watched his mother fall to the ground, gasping for breath, her complexion ashen, bean-sized beads of sweat oozing and dripping from her forehead, and then coughing violently, with pink foam coming out of the corners of her mouth... It was so sudden that he and his father both I was frightened and stunned, and when I reacted, I called 120 and sent it to the hospital, but the rescue was invalid.The doctor said, acute heart failure.

When the aunt's family arrived, Yi Tianyu and his father were sitting in the mourning hall.Everyone who came to express their condolences was comforting, sighing, and pitying his 12-year-old child. He didn't want to hear it. He heard enough. He just wanted his mother to come back. It didn't matter if his father married another woman. He didn't care. , as long as mom can come back, he will persuade mom to divorce dad.

It was at this time that Yun Ziqing came with his parents—Yi Tianyu's aunt and uncle.This is the second meeting between Qing and Yu. The first meeting was three years ago when their families from the south and the north traveled thousands of miles back to their hometown for the New Year. After I said a word, I followed the adults to visit different relatives' homes to pay New Year's greetings.Qing always remembered that Yu carried a basket full of fireworks, surrounded by several younger children, and followed him enviously to the middle of the yard to set them off.

It was raining heavily outside, and the sound of the rain was rushing, and the adults were all sitting around talking.Qing's mother burst into tears whenever she thought of Yu. She was still such a small child, and without a mother, what would she do in the future... Yu sat on a small stool against the wall and said nothing. Fog rose from his eyes, and he stared at the ground in front of his feet, trying not to cry. His dog, the golden retriever Ladd, was lying at his feet, his ears drooping weakly, and his eyes staring blankly. The ground seemed to be able to feel the sorrow of the master, and gave a low hum.

Qing quietly walked to Yu's side, moved a small stool and sat side by side with Yu, stretched out her hand to stroke Ladd's head lightly, shook the arm holding Yu slightly, turned her face to look at Yu and screamed. One voice: "Brother Yu."

Yu didn't move, Qing called again: "Brother Yu."

Yucai raised his head and glanced at Qing, in those quiet eyes, there was the same real sadness and sorrow as his.Yu's tears could no longer be held back, big teardrops rolled down, choked with sobs and sobs, tears were like raindrops hitting the window, quick and long, flowing down continuously, forming a stream Transparent lines.Brother Yu doesn't have a mother anymore, Qing thought, he held Yu's hand in his own, took out a tissue from his pocket, and kept wiping his tears, without saying a word, just sitting with him like that, with him. He shed tears.The 11-year-old Qing, who was in the sixth grade of elementary school, didn't know why he was so sad. It seemed that all the rain fell into Yu and his heart, and the wet air blurred his eyes.

In the next few days, Qing stayed by Yu's side like a quiet and gentle deer, eating with Yu, sleeping with Yu, walking with Yu, crying with Yu, but she rarely spoke.Until the day when their family was going back to City D, when they were about to drive away, Qingyi looked up and saw Yuyuan standing alone by the door of the unit, looking at them, to be precise He had sadness in his eyes, and a hazy, inexplicable feeling. Later, when Qing slowly recalled it, he felt that it should be nostalgia. He felt that he should say something to Yu, so he walked over and grabbed Yu's hand. Hand, with a child's unique innocent and serious expression, said: "Brother Yu, don't be sad, you still have me to accompany you, I will be with you from now on, so don't be sad." Wang Yu lowered his eyes and lowered his head. He paused and said: "When it's holiday, let uncle bring you to my house to play, you haven't been to my house yet, I have a lot of books, you can pick whatever you want, and I will give it to you if you like it. But you Don't be sad all the time, okay?"

Yu pursed his lips vigorously and nodded.

Qing gently squeezed Yu's hand and said, "Then goodbye, Brother Yu."

Yu looked up at Qing, managed to squeeze out a smile and said, "Goodbye."

Qing's mother's worry about Yu's life was well-founded, and she had heard Yu's mother said before she was alive that it was because of a woman.

Two months later, Yu's father married that woman.This incident caused quite a lot of discussion among relatives, and it was once again confirmed that Yu will have to suffer for a long time in the future.When Qing heard the news, she felt unbelievable, and actually looked down on her uncle a little bit. Thinking of Yu crying at that time, she also felt sorry for Yu.

Yu's life has fallen from the sky to the ground, and the cost of food and clothing is not as good as when his mother was alive, and he seldom even eats eggs and milk.Yu never knew that his father would have such a cowardly side. When arguing with his mother, when his tough and domineering face turned to his stepmother, he suddenly became gentle and submissive, even a little humble.Because of his father's cowardice, Yu experienced what it means to be excluded and cold and violent at a young age, what it means to be bitter and sarcastic. Of course, he would also quarrel with his stepmother, would resist, and then watched her make a fuss and cry in front of his father with cold eyes, I will see my father coaxing his stepmother in a low voice, and then always tell him to behave in private, so as not to make the stepmother angry all the time.When Dad said this, he always kept silent, anger and grievance collided in his eyes, he resisted it, and didn't want to shed any more tears.

Everyone says that a child with a mother is like a treasure, while a child without a mother is like a grass.Feather is like a lonely nameless grass in the field, struggling stubbornly in the wind and rain with a thin and helpless body.

Ladd was also treated the same as Yu, falling from the sky to the ground.In the past, Yu had to give Ladd an egg every day, and gave him half a cup of his own milk. Usually Ladd’s staple food was mainly dog ​​food, and Yu never gave him human food. Food that is too large is toxic to dogs.Under their careful feeding, Ladd has grown fat and strong, with golden and shiny hair all over his body. Whenever he is taken out for a walk, there will always be many people watching, and they can't help but touch Ladd's head and caress him. Ladd's back, Tut Tut praise, Yu was very proud at that time.But now, the stepmother only gave it leftovers, soup and water, and Yu said that he would give Ladd eggs to eat, but the stepmother said: "People are reluctant to eat, so give it to dogs?" Said: "It's just a dog, people haven't eaten such expensive food yet!" Sometimes he would get angry at Ladd, especially when Yu was present, deliberately took a broom and beat Ladd severely, scolding it: "What? It doesn't work, you eat!" Ladd began to hide from Yu's stepmother every day, even in a room, he would try to avoid her, walking close to the wall, his eyes full of fear.

Yu saw that Ladd had become thinner and his coat color was no longer moist, and his heart ached terribly, but he couldn't help it.Every night, late at night, he would sit on the floor, hugging Ladd tightly, cheek to cheek with Ladd, and Ladd would not move, and they would just sit there for a while.Yu only bought an egg or a pack of milk to hide in his schoolbag when his father occasionally secretly gave him a little pocket money, and secretly gave it to Ladd in the middle of the night.Now that Ladd couldn't get enough to eat every day, Yu secretly went to the kitchen in the middle of the night to get Ladd leftover rice or steamed buns to eat. Seeing Ladd gobbling it up, Yu felt unspeakably sad.

The next morning, I would hear my stepmother complaining to my father: "I don't know if there are thieves or mice in the house. Why is there so little leftover food last night?"

Yu's father laughed: "There is no thief, it is probably a mouse, next time the cover should be tighter."

Yu didn't understand what was better about his stepmother than his mother, except that she was younger and more beautiful than his mother, but his mother's beauty radiated from the inside out, gentle and beautiful, while his stepmother's beauty was very vulgar, with heavy makeup.Moreover, how can a person who is not good to small animals be kinder and better than his mother? Why does father quarrel with mother every day because of such a woman.He always misses the scene where his father, mother and him used to sit around the coffee table, watch TV, eat, talk and laugh, and Ladd would wag his tail around everyone and happily turn around go.The days are lonely and helpless, but fortunately, Ladd is with him every day. Every day when he goes to school, he will be sent to the door, and then take his slippers back to his room; Ladd is also very accurate Time, when it was time for him to come back from school, Ladd would bring his slippers to the door again, sit and wait for him to come in, and when he saw Yu come back, he would wag his tail happily, and Yu would always give him a Big hugs, the only one who can make him feel warm in this family is Ladd.

On this day, when Yu came back from school, he didn't see any slippers or Ladd when he entered the door, but he saw his father came back earlier than usual, but he didn't see his stepmother.

Feeling ominous in Yu's heart, he opened his mouth and asked, "Where's Ladd?"

Yu's father hesitated and said, "Well...Xiao Yu, your mother just came back from the hospital today. She...is pregnant and has a dog at home. I'm afraid it's not good for the fetus, so..."

Yu's eyes immediately flared up: "Where's Ladd!?"

At this time, the stepmother came out of the bedroom and said: "Send it away, who knows what kind of germs it is carrying, what if it infects the fetus, what should I do?"

Yu stared at her closely: "Where did you send it?"

Yu's father hurriedly said: "Sent to the countryside, your mother has relatives in the countryside."

Yu turned to stare at Dad: "Where is it?" He didn't believe that his stepmother could be so kind.

"You don't want to get it back! You didn't send it to the country, but to the dog dealer. It should be out of the market now!" The stepmother said impatiently. She had been trying to get Ladd away, but she happened to be pregnant and caught him. A godsend opportunity.

That's his rad!Why do they do this!Yu glared at his stepmother, then at his father, turned around and went back to the room, closed the door heavily, locked it, and lay down on the bed.In the evening, Dad knocked on the door to ask him to eat, but he ignored him, and the quilt was soaked with tears.Ladd was a birthday present from his mother when he was in the fifth grade of elementary school. It was a golden retriever dog. It was small and fluffy when he was first picked up. It had light yellow hair all over the body. It was chubby and chubby. It goes wherever it goes.Mom said, you are the only child in the family, and Mom can't have another child, no one to play with you, it's too lonely, let Ladd stay with you.Yu was so happy that he wished he could take Ladd with him to school.

He couldn't hate his father, but he hated his stepmother terribly, he wanted to leave this cold home for him, if it could be called his home, but he was not strong enough, he could only endure with.He must leave this house early, he thought.

The stepmother later gave birth to a boy, and her dislike for Yu intensified, and she refused to let Yu get close to the baby, saying that his hands were neither light nor heavy, and what to do if he knocked the child down.Yu's father also said to Yu in a very embarrassing way, Xiao Yu, if you are fine, don't get close to your brother, he is too young to talk to you, he can only play with you when he grows up.Yu didn't say anything, he didn't look at it unless he was allowed to see it, and he didn't approach it unless he was allowed to approach it.

But after all, he is just a child, and he always has curiosity.Yu came out of the room to pour a glass of water, and saw the blue stroller in the living room, the child was lying in it, babbling, and the little hands were waving happily, Yu walked over involuntarily, and saw the baby fat Dudu's small face, eyes wide open, small mouth still drooling, looking around, small hands and legs randomly scratching, kicking, kicking, so cute, I couldn't help but reach out to touch it Looking at the baby's small face, the stepmother was coming out of the kitchen with a feeding bottle in her hand. Seeing Yu's hand just withdrawn from the baby's face, she hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing!" and rushed to the side of the baby carriage, immediately Seeing a long and thin scratch on the baby's face, extending from the base of the ear to the corner of the mouth, he yelled again: "Why are you hitting so hard!" He slapped Yu's head with a slap, and wanted to slap him a second time. Yu raised his arm to block her, glared at her contemptuously, opened the door and ran out, ran to the side of the road, sat on the curb in a daze, until his father came out to look for him after he got home from work.

He only said lightly to his father: "I didn't make the injury on the child's face."

Yu's father didn't speak, just patted Yu's back lightly. He knew that it was the baby's own little hand, and it wasn't the first time, but he felt that it was difficult for him to be caught in the middle.

Yu's mood would be better only during the winter and summer vacations, because his father would quietly give him some money, and let him take the train to his aunt's house in D City. He was very happy to leave his home temporarily.My aunt lives in Jinse Garden, which is a garden-style community. In his eyes, only the external environment here makes people feel comfortable, not to mention aunt, uncle, brother Ziyi, sister Zilan, and Qing, who always When he was sitting alone by the curbstone, on the floor behind the door of the room, lonely and sad, he would always think of Qing, they were very kind to him, as if he and them were the real family.

It was the lively and warm big family he dreamed of.
