"Mom's biggest regret before she died was not being able to see you one last time. But if she knew you were doing so well, she would definitely be happy for you." Zheng Shaochun said in a choked voice: "Shaoyun, our mom told me something before she died. She said she was sorry for you. If she hadn't given you a failed marriage, your life wouldn't be like this."
As soon as the words fell, Zheng Shaoyun's tears fell: "Mom, I don't blame you, really."
On the tombstone, Li Fen's smile is so kind in the black and white photo. This portrait in front of us should allow her to rest in peace. After so many years, this seems to be the most complete and harmonious time for the Zheng family.
"It's getting late. I think we should all go back quickly." Zheng Xinyi suggested, subconsciously protecting the grass as she saw the wind starting to blow on the mountain.
"There's nothing delicious at home, so let's just make do with what we have!" Shao Fang said as she walked over with some vegetable dumplings and corn porridge.
Zheng Shaoyun grabbed a vegetable dumpling and held it in his hand, tears streaming down his face. "Big brother, second brother, third brother, do you remember? When we were little, we loved eating the vegetable dumplings our mother made the most."
"Of course I remember. You and your third brother were the most mischievous when you were little, always getting into trouble. Knowing your second brother was honest, we always blamed him whenever something happened, causing him to get beaten by our father quite a bit as a child." Speaking of childhood, Zheng Shaochun got excited and said a few more words. Looking up at the children in the hall who had already started families and grown up, he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems like just the blink of an eye, and we're all old now. Even the children around us have grown up without us noticing."
"Yes! I really miss my childhood days." Zheng Shaodong responded.
The lobby suddenly became quiet, with everyone keeping their heads down and keeping silent, thinking about their own things. Yingzi had been fighting and trying to be strong for half her life, but ended up like this. It was really sad to think about it.
Zheng Shaoyun wasted his best years, and only now began to wake up, abandoning the gluttony and laziness of his youth and starting to be independent.
Zheng Shaonan raised his eyes to glance at the child in Xinxin's arms and sighed softly.
Zheng Shaochun and Cuihua looked at each other, looked at the wrinkles on each other's faces, and felt an indescribable bitterness in their hearts. The ups and downs of these years really cannot be described in one sentence.
Zheng Xinwei stroked his lost leg and looked up at the sky. At this moment, he must be missing the Zheng Xinwei who had all his limbs intact and could walk, run and jump!
Zheng Xinyi looked around, seeing everyone with heavy hearts, looking at the elderly people who had been ravaged by time. She coughed softly a few times and raised the corn porridge in front of her: "Let's drink this bowl of porridge together, and then let's throw away all the painful and happy memories of the past and start to learn to cherish the present, okay?"
"Okay, the past has become history, and we must learn to cherish what we have now." Zheng Shaochun raised the corn porridge to receive it.
Everyone raised their bowls, drank the corn paste in one gulp, and then showed sunny smiles. No one knew what was hidden behind these smiles. Only they themselves understood the ups and downs of life. Everyone had a different story and everyone's experience was different, so the bitterness in everyone's heart could not be fully understood by another person.
