Chapter 337
"Uncle, does my mother really live here?" Yun Mian stood behind a door, raised her hand but did not knock for a long time.
The system wanted to fly up and knock on the door for her: "She is at home now, Mianmian, try knocking on the door. Your mother is the same as Cheng Mu. I specially preserved their memories."
Yunmian clenched her fingers nervously, and with the encouragement of the system uncle, she mustered up the courage and knocked on the door twice.
She was too afraid to see a mother who was as strange as her grandparents.
And…Mom is blind, and this is the first time she’s opened her eyes and been able to see herself.
Yun Mian's heart was pounding with nervousness. She swallowed and stood outside the door a little uncomfortably, waiting for the door to be opened from the inside.
Five seconds later, the door really opened.
Yun Mian looked up blankly, and happened to meet Yun Mujin's gaze as he looked down at her.
"Little boy, you..." Yun Mujin had just opened his mouth when the child rushed over with tears in his eyes and hugged his legs.
"Mom!!!" Yunmian cried and wiped all her tears on her mother's soft cotton skirt.
There is no tension, uneasiness, or unfamiliarity.
The moment her mother saw her but didn't recognize her, the low wall that Yunmian had built with great difficulty in her heart collapsed. Tears burst out, and she wished she could hold her mother's ears and tell her who she was in a loud voice.
When Yun Mian called out "Mom" in her familiar crying voice, Yun Mujin was obviously stunned for two seconds. After she came to her senses, she half squatted down, held her daughter's tearful face, wiped away the tears bit by bit with her soft fingertips, and carefully and attentively described Yun Mian's appearance inch by inch with her eyes.
"Mianmian." She said her daughter's name with a smile, but her eyes turned red.
After closing the door, Yunmian, holding her mother's hand, stepped into this house she had never seen before.
"Mom, do grandpa and grandma live here too?" Yun Mian asked as she sat on the sofa. The soft and thick sofa made her bounce twice, and then her body tilted and fell into her mother's arms.
Yun Mujin caught her daughter steadily, smiled and shook her head: "Of course not, your grandparents have a staff dormitory, and they also have a house to live in during holidays. I bought this place last year, and I live here alone."
"Wow~!" The child lay on his mother's lap, looking at her in surprise and admiration: "Mom can buy such a big house by herself, she is a thousand times better than Mianmian!"
Yun Mujin was amused by his daughter's exaggerated exclamation. Even though his eyes were always focused on his daughter's face, he couldn't help but look up and follow the little girl's gaze to look around the house one by one.
"Mianmian, can you tell mom what the place we lived in before was like?" Yun Mujin suddenly asked her daughter.
Yunmian turned over and sat up obediently, and began to recall and describe to her mother what the shack where the family used to live looked like.
The system considerately unfolded a light screen in front of her eyes, which happened to display many photos and even videos of the shed.
Yun Mujin found a pen and paper and, based on her daughter's description, she described or directly recorded the general appearance of the shed.
Those were seven years that she participated in throughout but missed because of her eyes.
That was the time when she, her parents and her daughter lived together in their small home.
As Yunmian was talking, she began to lie on her mother and started to instruct her mother how to draw with great experience.
In the end, her disruption was so obvious that Yun Mujin brought paper and pen again and asked her to draw by herself.
system:"……"
Excuse me, as a victim of Mianmian’s painting skills, I really have something to say at this time!
There was no strangeness or estrangement between the mother and daughter when they met, nor was there the scene of holding hands and looking at each other with tears in their eyes that the system had expected at the beginning. Mianmian was still well-behaved and playful, and Yun Mujin was still gentle and indulgent to her daughter.
In the evening, Yun Mujin took her daughter to a nearby large supermarket, preparing to buy some vegetables and cook a meal for her daughter at home.
Since Yunmian came to this world, she has only eaten meals cooked by her grandfather. Now she has the opportunity to cook with her mother. She excitedly grabbed her mother's sleeve and rushed out.
"Mom, can I buy a lot of food?" Yunmian, who had been poor for a long time in her memory, sat in her mother's car and began to imagine what she would buy when she went to the supermarket later.
"Sure." Yun Mujin looked back in the rearview mirror and smiled as she promised her curious daughter, "Mom is very rich now. You can buy whatever Mianmian likes. You can buy lots of food and toys."
But when they actually arrived at the mall, the child looked at the huge and strangely familiar mall, pursed his lips, and whispered to his mother: "I've been to this place before."
But it was seven years later.
"I also had steak there with Brother Cheng Mu." Yun Mian pointed upwards, having subconsciously ignored uncle and nephew Yang Bin and Yang Qi in her memory.
"Is the steak delicious?" Yun Mujin asked her daughter with a smile.
Yunmian recalled and nodded to her mother with great affirmation: "It was delicious! I couldn't bear to finish it all at once, so I sat there and ate it slowly~ Then the bad guy got impatient and left me alone."
The smile on Yun Mujin's face dimmed a little because of her daughter's words. She reached out to touch her daughter's head, leaned over to pick up the little girl whose eyes were always sparkling and put her in the stroller.
Yunmian squatted in the stroller, looking at her mother blankly, her little hands nervously grasping the grid of the stroller.
“Don’t be afraid, Mianmian.” Yun Mujin comforted her, and then pushed the child in the stroller slowly around the mall.
Yunmian was a little nervous at first, but later she discovered the joy of not having to walk. She then learned on her own how to reach out and grab snacks from the cart. She put all the strange snacks into the cart, so many that they almost buried her.
At first, Yunmian was worried that her mother would not have enough money to pay for the snacks she bought, but her mother kept telling her firmly that she had money, a lot of money. The system uncle also said that her mother's money was enough to buy out all the items in the supermarket on this floor. Yunmian felt the impact of having money and started to spend lavishly.
Buy some candy you've seen before that you've never eaten!
The packaging looks strange but inexplicably tempting, buy it!
Colorful fruit platter, buy it!
A lot of things were piled into the cart along the way, but the system estimated... the total amount was probably less than two hundred yuan, but little Mianmian seemed to be so happy about the joy of shopping that she was going crazy.
Cheng Mu was right, Mianmian was just a little fool who was easily contented.
Yun Mujin looked at the basket of strange snacks in the cart, feeling helpless and inevitably heartbroken.
She pinched her daughter's chubby face and said softly, "Mianmian, do you want grandpa and grandma to come over for dinner later?"
Yunmian was a little tempted, but after hesitating for a moment, she shook her head a little disappointedly: "No, I've already seen my grandparents..."
They no longer recognized her. The system did not retain the memory of suffering and humiliation for the two weathered elderly people.
Yunmian held her mother's hand and whispered, "Mom, I just want to cook and eat with you~"
Don’t bother grandpa and grandma anymore. Let them always shine and develop their own style among the students.
Yun Mujin had actually guessed it. When she just came back and was able to open her eyes to see this colorful world, she called her parents. As expected, they did not have any memories of those seven years. They were still two respected old professors in the university, and Tang Chen... Yun Mujin would not give him any chance to hurt herself and her family this time.
Starting his life all over again, Yun Mujin was determined to pull out the fangs of this poisonous snake hiding in the shadows and smash it to pieces, making it fall hard into the dirty and smelly ditch, never to be able to crawl out and see the light of day again in this life!
After coming to her senses, Yun Mujin took her daughter away from the snack area and went to the living area, where she bought the child some furry slippers, soft pajamas, and various daily necessities for children.
After arranging for the door-to-door delivery, Yun Mujin pushed a cart of snacks and went with his daughter to buy the ingredients for tonight.
It was not until this time that Yun Mujin realized that her daughter was actually a real carnivore. She would not even look at vegetables, and even rejected potatoes, eggplants and carrots. Her eyes were fixed on the fresh meats, and she was almost drooling over them.
But during those seven years, Yun Mujin could count the number of times the family ate meat on one hand.
Yunmian watched her mother put box after box of ribs, steaks and pork into the cart. Finally, she had to stretch out her little hand and let her mother take her out of the cart. Then she held her mother's hand and tried her best to stop her: "Mom, don't buy it. We can't eat so much meat~"
Yun Mujin said gently, "If you can't finish it, put it in the refrigerator and eat it slowly tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Yun Mian blurted out: "But I'm leaving tomorrow..."
Yun Mujin's movement of bending over to pick up the meat suddenly froze. After three full seconds, she slowly stood up holding the piece of fresh pork belly.
Yunmian looked up at her mother, but she couldn't see the expression on her mother's face clearly.
A few seconds later, Yun Mujin put the meat into the cart, but his voice was a little difficult: "Then let's not buy it. Let's go look at the toys."
Yunmian sat on the sofa in the living room, listening to the cheerful background music of cartoons on TV, holding her face and swaying as she waited for her mother to fry the hot pot base in the kitchen.
She guessed that her mother might be hiding in the kitchen crying, so she used the excuse of frying the ingredients for hot pot to coax her out.
But Yunmian didn't go over to take a peek. Even when her mother brought out the electric hot pot cooker to plug it in, Yunmian saw that her eyes were a little moist, but she didn't ask to expose her.
The system was curious as to why the child didn't hug his mother and comfort her.
Yunmian seemed to be used to it, and said very experiencedly: "Mom doesn't want me to see her tears. If I go to comfort her, it will only make her more sad, because she can't keep me."
Just like when they were in the hospital, Mom would always close the door and break down in the corridor crying, but Yunmian never went out to help Mom wipe her tears except for the two times at the beginning.
Mom said that she could use her life to exchange for Mianmian's good life, but mom's life could not bring back Mianmian's life. Mom's kneeling down in front of the doctor could not bring back Mianmian's life.
So every time Mianmian appears when her mother is crying, her mother will feel more desperate and sad.
Just like now... Mom already knew that Mianmian was leaving tomorrow, so she made the excuse that the hot pot base was very spicy and the smoke made her eyes red.
"Mom, I can only eat a little bit of spicy food~" Yun Mian raised her hand obediently.
"good."
The tomato soup base she made was originally not spicy.
In just two days, Yunmian went shopping with her mother, ate hotpot, and the next day her mother took her to the amusement park where she played for a long time.
When she and her mother returned to the house, the system uncle told her: "Mianmian, we only have one hour."
Yunmian hugged her mother and whispered to her that she was leaving.
It turned out that her mother seemed to have known about it for a long time. She took her to the bathroom, took her to take a shower, changed her into a new set of furry clothes, and then took her to sit in the living room.
"Mianmian, close your eyes." Yun Mujin said, and the moment his daughter closed her eyes, he raised his hand to turn off the light.
After more than ten seconds, as the birthday song sounded cheerfully, Yunmian opened her eyes and just happened to see her mother looking at her tenderly in the light of the cake candles.
"Mianmian, happy 6th birthday." Yun Mujin already knew why her daughter came back specially for these two days, or rather, she had never forgotten it.
Five-year-old Yunmian accompanied her mother for the whole day.
Six-year-old Yunmian blew out the candles and shared a big piece of sweet and soft cake with her mother.
Yunmian has never forgotten what she told her six-year-old self in the interrogation room.
Under her mother's gentle but sad and reluctant gaze, she lowered her head and took out the gift she had prepared long ago.
The gift she gave to her mother when she was 6 years old was a glowing star pendant that she and her brother Cheng Mu bought at the store. For this, she promised to be Cheng Mu's follower for ten more days.
The gift for grandpa was a book that Yunmian couldn’t understand, but the system uncle said that grandpa would definitely like it, so Yunmian paid the small price of following him for another 20 days.
The gift for grandma was a beautiful little dried flower, carefully placed in a transparent glass container. Yunmian found and picked the flower on the roadside herself. It was a flower that her grandma promised to bring her when she first came into this world but forgot to bring her.
The system helped the children retrieve these gifts from the future. Yunmian hid them at her mother's house, and now she can finally take them out.
But mom will never have shining stars again.
Grandpa can find all the books he likes and wants to read.
Grandma won't remember that she owes her a flower...
Yunmian, wearing a birthday hat and a new, well-fitting dress, stood on tiptoe, hugged her mother and gave her a careful kiss on the cheek.
"Mom, I'm leaving now."
"Mom, you have to take care of grandpa and grandma together with Mianmian~"
"Mom...goodbye."
In the empty living room, the little kid who would just be clapping his hands and nodding his head and singing birthday songs with her had disappeared. Only three gifts were left on the table, an unfinished birthday cake, and six unburned candles placed aside.
Yun Mujin stood up and sat down in front of the cake. She never asked her daughter why she showed up at this time, just as she never asked her daughter whether she still wanted to recognize her as her mother.
From the moment her daughter knocked on the door and showed up, she knew that she didn't need to make any bad choices about Tang Chen because of her daughter. The little guy didn't give her the chance to choose at all.
Yunmian told her directly through her actions: Mom, you have to love yourself and love yourself with the same love that Mianmian has.
