Anqi really felt lucky to have met such a wonderful mother-in-law who never criticized her and treated her like her own daughter. It was only right for her to take care of her mother-in-law.
"I only have you two children. If I don't treat you as family, how can I live like this?"
The old lady knew very well that she would grow old sooner or later, become unable to walk, and be unable to work. If she treated her children well now and sincerely, they would take care of her in the future. It's a two-way street.
"Mom, thank you."
"Alright, go and get some rest. You've been working so hard. Don't worry about things at home, leave everything to me, okay?"
"Okay, sure."
Anqi then went back to rest and slept until the next day.
She was really exhausted during this period. Not only her, but the original owner of this body also didn't close her eyes for a moment.
The original owner had always been well protected, with the old man taking care of everything and not having to worry about anything. But now that the old man is gone, she suddenly has no one to rely on, and she is heartbroken and doesn't know what to do.
This house is filled with memories. The moment she saw it, tears welled up in her eyes. Her desire to leave was also a form of escape. She wanted to go to her son's house to escape the longing, to stop thinking about it, to stop looking at it. They had been together for most of their lives, and then he just left like that.
From then on, everything was done alone. All I could do was look at the house and think of that person. Just a short while ago, that person was here, saying we'd go see the maple leaves together when they turned red...
When Mo Yan woke up, it was already eight o'clock, and the alarm clock next to her went off.
Turn off the alarm clock and get up to wash up.
"Aunt Mo Yan, your milk."
Mo Yan went out and took the milk. The elderly people in the village all subscribed to the milk, which was delivered to them every day by a nearby dairy factory.
Some people don't come for the milk itself, but for someone to visit them. There are many elderly people in the village, and their children all have their own jobs. The milk delivery staff will deliver the milk to each person, and if no one comes, they will call their family members.
"They're here."
Mo Yan took the milk, pressed her fingerprint on it, and then came back to make breakfast: a glass of milk and a bowl of noodles.
After eating, go out for a walk. There is also an activity room for the elderly in the village where you can drink tea, play cards, and watch TV.
Their village really puts a lot of effort into caring for the elderly.
When they saw Mo Yan come over, everyone invited her to sit down.
"Mo Yan, come play cards, we're one short."
Mo Yan walked over and shook her head, "No need, I want to bask in the sun."
Everyone knows that Mo Yan is feeling uneasy, even though she and her husband have a very good relationship.
"Okay, call us if you need anything. We're waiting for you to play cards."
"good."
Mo Yan's friend also came over and sat next to her. "Back then, when Lao Li left, I felt like the sky had fallen. How could that person suddenly leave? I felt meaningless. Eating alone was meaningless, watching TV alone was meaningless, and the house was eerily quiet. But I couldn't go with him, could I? Life had to go on."
Mo Yan then realized that her friend was trying to comfort her. "I know, I just need some time."
Mo Yan thought to herself that she should stay home for the next couple of days. She wasn't the original owner of this body, so she wasn't actually sad.
The original owner must have been heartbroken, not just heartbroken, but completely lost.
"Yes, it all takes time. Don't bear it all by yourself. Come out and find us, we can talk and play cards together, and the time will pass. By the way, there's a tour group going there recently, they say it's a five-day, five-night trip. Do you want to come along?"
Mo Yan thought about it and decided that going was fine; if she stayed at home, everyone would probably come to comfort her.
"Okay, I'll go with you. When?"
Upon hearing Mo Yan's agreement, the other party immediately smiled, "That's right, come out with us, and the time will pass by slowly. Staying at home alone always feels like an unbearable day."
In the past, there were two people; now, there is only one. Facing everything familiar alone, I subconsciously think of the past.
"Okay, sure."
"Go back and pack your things, we'll leave tomorrow."
Let's strike while the iron is hot and set off early, lest Mo Yan regret it.
"Tomorrow won't work. I think I have to wait until after the 31st day of the third lunar month. I have some things for you here. I'll go pack them. They're all things you might need when you go out."
After Mo Yan returned home, she started packing her things and found a bag containing first-aid supplies.
It says what to eat when you have a fever, a sore throat, a runny nose, and also a lot of alcohol and stuff.
Mo Yan packed them all up.
In fact, such people are touching and unforgettable.
Mo Yan tidied up the house, searched through everything, and made sure nothing was missing before she rested.
The next day, Mo Yan was about to hand over the things to her friend when she saw An Bing and An Guo coming over as soon as she stepped out the door.
"Mom, where are you going?"
They stared at their mother in shock, wondering if she was going to stay at Angie's house with her suitcase.
Anbing looked at his mother and said, "Mom, you don't mean to go stay at Anqi's house, do you? That won't do. Anqi is a married daughter, how can you go to your daughter's house? It will make us two sons a laughing stock."
People would say, "You have a son, how can you let your mother live with her married daughter? This is outrageous. How can this mother be so inconsiderate?"
“Yes, Mom.” An Guo frowned, somewhat displeased. “Mom, what you’re doing is really going too far. Everyone will think we’re unfilial.”
They never intended to abandon their mother. "My brother and I will take care of you. Whether you go to your older brother's house or my house, you are welcome. You should also think about us."
"We sons have it tough too. We have our own families, and we have our own difficulties. You need to think about us."
Mo Yan was speechless for a moment. "I just went out for a while, and you two are causing quite a bit of trouble. Wherever I go is my freedom. Whether I am filial or not is not something you can change with a few words."
I'm not going to Angie's house. I need to go for a walk and clear my head. Get out of my way!
These two people only talk about caring about their mother; they only ever think about themselves.
"Want to clear your head?"
The two were dumbfounded. Weren't they going to Angie's house?
But why go out to relax?
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Dad just passed away, it's not even the seventh day after his death, and you're already going out to clear your head? Do you even care about Dad?"
Mo Yan: "..."
Whether I care about your father or not is none of my business. Just mind your own business!
Their friend came over at this time and explained to them, "You've misunderstood. These things were given to me by your mother. She said that she could only go out after the 31st day of her maternal and infant cycle."
