Yellow flowers and grass are interspersed, catkins are flying all over the sky,
I met an old man in the forest, carrying firewood back to the road.
Seeing me walking in a hurry, he smiled and asked who I was looking for.
I say that in Huayang Town, a loving mother is looking forward to her son’s return.
First, I hope that I will be healthy, and second, I hope that everything will go well.
Three hopes for a happy heart, four hopes for success,
The fifth hope is to be majestic, the sixth hope is to be well-dressed,
Seven days of looking forward to the beautiful road, eight days of looking forward to flying thousands of miles,
Nine times I hope to find a husband, ten times I hope my wife will follow.
I look forward to it day and night, when will the child come back?
..
Jingzhou, Huayang Town.
A man in a green shirt stood on a bluestone avenue in the town and looked around, sometimes contemplating and sometimes searching. It was a good time after a long journey.
When I returned here thirty years later, I found that the town had changed its appearance, and its area was several times larger than before. What was originally a dirt road into the town has turned into a wide bluestone road. The only street in the town has also become a zigzag street composed of four streets connected end to end.
Many new houses and shops have been built on both sides of the street, and it is very lively with people coming and going.
Liangchen looked for memories and walked towards the general direction of the old house, only to find that the original small courtyards had disappeared and turned into large courtyards with blue bricks and glazed tiles. Occasionally, servants came in and out of the courtyard, shouting and drinking. Moving around.
Seeing that his hometown in his memory had changed beyond recognition, Liangchen shook his head sadly.
"My mother must have also built a new house, but I don't know which one?" He guessed and continued walking, crossing several courtyards, and suddenly found a familiar small courtyard in the middle of the two courtyards.
The small courtyard is a bit shabby, but clean and tidy. However, compared with the surrounding large houses with new bricks and colorful tiles, it is as shabby as a black chicken seeing a phoenix.
"My mother shouldn't be short of money. Why is she still living in the old house when the neighbors around her have built new buildings?"
"Did something happen?" Liangchen guessed in his mind, and suddenly felt a little uneasy. He rushed to the door in three steps at a time, held the copper ring in his hand and knocked heavily on the door!
"哐——! 哐——!"
After a long time, there was no response, and he felt a thump in his heart!
"Bang——! Bang——!" He knocked twice again!
The last time I visited my mother, she was already in her forties. Now, after thirty years of separation, she is already in her seventies. There won’t be anything going on, right?
While thinking about it, he was about to break in when a voice suddenly sounded:
"Who is it?"
The voice was kind and slightly unfamiliar. When Liangchen looked up, he saw a middle-aged woman walking out of the room.
The woman is wearing a blue shirt and her hair is tied up in a high bun. Although her clothes are simple, she has a hint of a wealthy family.
"It's me, Liangchen." When someone answered, he breathed a sigh of relief and answered loudly.
"Who?" the woman asked repeatedly, as if she didn't hear clearly.
"Good time!!" he replied loudly again.
The woman's fast steps suddenly paused, and then a trace of hesitation appeared on her face, wondering what she was struggling with.
After about three breaths of time, the woman finally walked to the door, pulled the door bolt and the crossbar, and opened the door with a "squeak" sound.
When she saw Liangchen's appearance, she was startled at first, but then her face changed to a pretending to be calm expression.
Liangchen looked at the woman in front of him, recalled carefully, and finally remembered the clever maid from many years ago.
"Peach blossom?" he asked tentatively.
When the woman heard this, her eyes flickered, then she gritted her teeth and said:
"Master Immortal! As I said last time, don't come here again, so as not to make your wife angry again when she sees you!"
"What?" Upon hearing this, Liangchen felt a little confused and confused.
"Taohua knows that the immortal master has great magical powers, but no matter how much you become like my young master, even if your wife can't see anything, you can't deceive her!" The woman finally admitted that she was Taohua, but she still blocked the door. There was no intention of letting him enter the house, and it sounded like someone had been here in the form of a good person!
Also...she said that my wife can't see?
"What did you say? What's wrong with mother's eyes?" Liangchen finally realized and grabbed Taohua's shoulders.
"Last time...when you came...my wife couldn't see you. Have you...did you forget?" Taohua turned pale when he caught her, and answered hesitantly.
She knew in her heart that immortal masters like him regarded human lives as ants. From the moment the long-term worker in the family was casually reduced to ashes, she realized that the kind man who only came home once every year and a half was actually an immortal master!
But what was in front of her was definitely not the young master, it was definitely the deception, and she seemed determined not to flinch.
When Liangchen heard the news, he could no longer control his anxiety, and his figure turned into a breeze and flew into the room.
When I arrived at the bedroom, I saw a thin old man lying on the bed.
The old man's hair was covered with silver hair and wrinkles were like nets, and her eyes were staring blankly into nowhere. Although it was already spring, she was still wrapped in a thick cotton robe and stretched her legs under the quilt.
He was holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand and slowly fiddling with them, while he was mumbling to himself, his voice low and inarticulate.
With just one glance at Liangchen, he knew that the drooping old man in front of him was his mother whom he had longed for for a long time. His heart moved, and a subtle voice came into his ears:
"Buddha bless my son, Amitabha..."
"Mother!" Liangchen's eyes turned red when he heard this, and tears burst out of his eyes instantly!
He threw himself in front of the bed, knelt on his knees, and held his mother's hands like dry branches tightly.
"Chen'er is back! It's all Chen'er's fault for being unfilial!" Liangchen said with sobs.
The sudden appearance of someone interrupted her prayers, but she remained expressionless, as if she had no waves in the ancient well. She just slowly pulled out her hand, held Liangchen's hand and rubbed it gently, then turned her head to face Liangchen, and sucked hard. She took two sips as if she was smelling something, and suddenly her whole body trembled, as if a huge stone had been thrown into a well. Her mouth suddenly opened, and then closed tremblingly, but not a single word came out. At the same time, two lines of clear tears flowed down her face. The cheeks like ravines are winding down and dripping!
Seeing his mother in tears, Liangchen couldn't help but feel sad anymore, and started to cry loudly, as if he wanted to shout out all the grievances he had suffered over the past few decades!
For a moment, the old man on the bed in the room cried silently, and the man kneeling on the ground cried heartbreakingly. After hearing this, Taohua, who rushed to the door, felt a pain in her heart, as if she was being scratched with a knife!
