Cleanliness

Back in the main house, Mo Xi went upstairs to see his mother.

Mo Xiyuan's mother's name was Xu Tong. When she was young, she was an outstanding beauty. She lived with Mo Xiyuan's father unmarried and had Mo Xiyuan.At that time, the Mo family was still headed by Mo Xiyuan's grandfather. Mo's father was the second son of the Mo family, and his foundation was unstable. Mr. Mo's health was failing. Mo Xiyuan's father wanted to seize power, so he abandoned Mo's mother and returned to Jiang Yu.At that time, getting pregnant before marriage was a serious crime that made the whole family lose their heads in the local area. Xu's family was ashamed, so they set up a bunch of dowries to marry Mo Xiyuan's mother to a local bastard, nicknamed Chen Gambler, That man is Xiao Tong's father.

Mo's mother gave birth to Mo Xiyuan in less than a month, and Chen Gambler felt that he was cuckolded, and he was about to throw Mo Xiyuan to death. Fortunately, Chen Gambler's mother was kind, and secretly kept Mo Xiyuan from Chen Gambler. She only said she was a daughter to the outside world, and she couldn't pass on the family line, so she was strangled to death.Another year, Mo's mother gave birth to Xiao Tong. Xiao Tong had just reached full term. Mo's mother took the money from Xiao Tong's grandma and ran away with Mo Xiyuan. Xiao Tong took a deep bite on his right shoulder so that they could recognize each other in the future.

Chen gambler ran away from his wife, he felt ashamed and didn't have the nerve to tell others. When others asked him, he only said that his wife died and died at home due to dystocia. So the neighbors in the neighborhood were convinced, and they all said that Chen Gambling killed his wife, Xiao Tong killed his mother, and the two disaster stars killed Mo's mother.Even Mo's mother's death was conveyed vividly, as if they had witnessed it with their own eyes.

Later, Mo Xiyuan's father gained the power of the Mo family and retrieved his wife and daughter. At that time, Mo Xiyuan was less than two years old. Unfortunately, Mo's mother had already fallen to the root of the disease, and her body had also weakened. At the end of the crossbow, there is no cure for medicine and stone.Mo's mother has gone through ups and downs in her life, and she has nothing else to think about until today. She just wants to see the little daughter that she couldn't take away back then. But after so many years of searching, the whereabouts of the little daughter is still unknown. Mo's mother has not reported anything in recent years. Hope, just ask her not to hate herself.

"Mom." Mo Xiyuan entered her mother's bedroom.

Mo's mother was still asleep, holding a strand of fetal hair and looking at the lamp carefully, seeing Mo Xiyuan coming in, put the lock of hair into the bedside table, covered her mouth and coughed, "Xiyuan is back, are you tired? I asked the kitchen to prepare lotus seed soup for you, and let them bring a bowl to your room later, so that you can calm down."

"Thank you, Mom." Mo Xiyuan looked at the cabinet, "Mom, what did you take just now?"

"Your sister's fetal hair. If it weren't for the cruelty to cut a strand of hair close to my body before leaving, I wouldn't even think about it all these years. I don't know where your sister is now, and whether she has been bullied. Mo's mother said, wiping her tears, "I will never see her again in this life, Xi Yuan, when you find her in the future, apologize to her on behalf of mother, just say that mother is sorry for her, and tell her not to hate her. "

"Mom, don't say that. You are in good health. You must find your sister sometime."

"Don't comfort mom. I know my body better than anyone else. It's almost enough to survive this winter. Xi Yuan, I've been dreaming a lot these days. I dreamed that your sister came back. This year our family will spend it together. A reunion year." Mother Mo sobbed, "If I can really have a reunion year, I will die without regret."

"mom……"

Mo Xiyuan saw the hardships her mother had suffered all these years, and Mo Xiyuan knew all about her thoughts about her sister day and night. Mo Xiyuan originally planned to wait for Xiao Tong's condition to improve before telling her mother the news of finding her sister. It was impossible to wait until then, Mo Xiyuan hesitated again and again, and finally told his mother the truth, "Mom, my sister has been found."

"You said... What did you say?" Mother Mo looked excited, holding Mo Xiyuan's hand, she could hardly catch her breath, "Say it again... Xiyuan, aren't you trying to make mom happy? Your sister... Did you really find your sister?"

"found it."

"When did you find it? Where is she now? Xi Yuan, take me to see her, and my little daughter..." Mother Mo folded her hands together and kept chanting "Amitabha". "My daughter, my daughter... Mom is sorry... Mom shouldn't have left you..."

While muttering, Mo's mother beat her chest and began to cry, saying sorry to her little daughter.

She was not in good health, and Mo Xi was afraid that she would hurt her body again, so after persuading her for a while, Mo's mother finally stopped crying, and asked, "Your sister, what's her name?"

"Her name is Xiao Tong, the same name as yours."

"Her grandma was kind-hearted, and she was afraid that I would not be able to find her, so she gave her such a name." Mo's mother cried again, "But I still couldn't find her, Xiao Tong... Xiao Tong... it was me I'm sorry for her."

Mo Xiyuan couldn't help sobbing, the mother and daughter sat opposite each other for a long time, until Mo Xiyuan's father came back, the mother and daughter wiped away their tears and pretended nothing happened.

Knowing that the little daughter is still alive, Mo's mother's illness seems to have improved a lot, and she wakes up early in the morning with much better energy than in the past. She usually does not leave the door, but today she has her hair combed. Ask Mo Xiyuan to choose a suit of clothes for herself, dress up properly, and still vaguely see the beauty of 30 years ago.

"Mom, where are you going with such a grand dress?" Mo Xiyuan asked with a smile.

"Where else can I go, of course to see your sister." Mother Mo replied beamingly.

The smile on Mo Xiyuan's face froze, "Today?"

"Yes." Sensing that Mo Xiyuan's expression was different, Mo's mother cautiously probed, "Isn't it appropriate today?"

"Nowadays……"

"Is it because your sister hates me in her heart and doesn't want to recognize me?" Mo's mother panicked, "Xiyuan, I know I'm sorry for her, I...won't I tell her who I am? I just want to take a look at her, I just want to see my daughter..."

"No, no, mom, don't think too much, Xiao Tong doesn't hate you, it's just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that she's sick now. Mom, I'll take you there, but you have to be mentally prepared."

Mo's mother was overjoyed, "Okay! As long as I can see your sister!"

It's just that Mo's mother didn't expect what Mo Xiyuan meant by being prepared. She didn't understand until the car drove to the gate of the second courtyard.

"Your sister... What's wrong with Xiao Tong? You said she was sick, what kind of sickness is it?"

Mo Xiyuan led her mother in, and comforted her as she walked, "Mom, don't worry, Xiao Tong was stimulated before, and her spirits were not very good, but she is much better now, and now that medical science is so advanced, she will recover soon. got up."

These words had no effect at all. Before seeing Xiao Tong, Mo's mother had already cried again. It was not until standing outside Xiao Tong's ward that she calmed down under Mo Xiyuan's comfort and stopped crying.

They came early, and Xiao Tong was still sleeping when they entered. Aunt Liu went to prepare breakfast, and only Aunt Zhao stayed in the ward to take care of them. When Aunt Zhao saw someone coming, she was so frightened that she hurried to help her, "Ma'am, your body is already weak. What are you still doing in the hospital? When you get sick and go back later, the husband doesn’t know how to blame us!”

Mo Xiyuan helped Mo's mother to sit down, and said: "Aunt Zhao, you have nothing to do here, you go out first, my mother just wants to see Xiao Tong."

"Okay, miss, madam, then I'm leaving, call me if you need something." Aunt Zhao said and backed out.

Only then did Mo's mother dare to lean forward, getting closer to Xiao Tong, and followed Xiao Tong's forehead, brows and eyes, looking carefully bit by bit.

"Like, really like." Mother Mo touched Xiao Tong's eyes and said, "The eyes of your two sisters are almost carved out of the same mold."

When Mo's mother abandoned Xiao Tong, Xiao Tong was only one month old. After 30 years, I couldn't remember Xiao Tong's appearance, but today I saw it, but I didn't feel strange at all. Dian Dian has experienced the appearance of growing up, and the person in front of her is exactly the same as the daughter she has been thinking about in her mind for 30 years.

"Poor Xiao Tong, I have suffered a lot outside, and my body is so thin that I don't have any flesh." There was some moisture in his eyes as he spoke.

Their voices woke up Xiao Tong, Xiao Tong opened his eyes in a daze, and saw a strange old woman sitting beside his bed crying, so miserable that Xiao Tong was startled.

"Xiao Tong, you're awake." Mo Xiyuan quickly explained the situation to Xiao Tong with a smile, "Let me introduce you, this is my mother. She came to the hospital for a physical examination today. I heard that you are my friend, so I want to come and see you." You, I'm sorry to wake you up."

"Oh..." Xiao Tong nodded half-understanding, and sat up, "Hello, Auntie."

"Hey, hey..." Mother Mo looked at her, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, she was so excited that she couldn't speak for a long time, "Is his name Xiao Tong, right? Good boy, my good boy..."

"Mom, don't scare Xiao Tong." Mo Xiyuan said and poured a glass of water for Xiao Tong, "Don't mind Xiao Tong, the elderly are like this, they are more easily agitated."

"It's nothing, my grandma is like this too." Xiao Tong took a sip of water, lifted the quilt and got up to wash up, wash off his drowsiness, think about the presence of outsiders in the room, tied his hair in the bathroom by the way, changed into a little more formal clothes before coming out, "Has Auntie had breakfast?"

"I ate some at home." Mother Mo said with red eyes, "My good boy, are you hungry? Xiyuan, come on, let them serve breakfast quickly."

"Okay." Mo Xiyuan replied, and ordered Aunt Zhao outside to prepare breakfast. After a while, the two aunts brought a table and came in early.

Since Mo's mother was here today, the breakfast was extraordinarily grand. There were all kinds of Chinese and Western-style dim sum and sausages. It was almost half a breakfast version of the Man-Han banquet. Mo Xiyuan and her mother didn't eat anything at home in the morning, so they ate with Xiao Tong. After breakfast, Mother Mo took Xiao Tong to ask her how warm she was, who else was in her family, how she was doing these years, whether she was married, and whether she had a partner.

Xiao Tong was not used to the warm and intimate attitude of strangers, at first he was able to answer politely, but later he felt that the old lady asked more and more private questions, and he really cared too much, so he simply turned on the TV to watch, and echoed the answer Twice, obviously absent-minded.

"Xiao Tong, why don't you go to Auntie's house some other day? Auntie will cook some special dishes for you. You haven't eaten my dishes when you grow up. My sister Xiyuan's favorite is the dry roasted shrimp. , you go home, Auntie will make it for you too, huh?"

These words were already so intimate that Xiao Tong was disgusted, Xiao Tong didn't even bother to watch TV, and said with a straight face: "I don't like shrimp, you should cook it for Mo Xiyuan."

"Then what do you like to eat? Tell me, and I will make it for you."

"I don't like to eat anything, Auntie, you and I are not related, and we are not friends with Mo Xiyuan, thank you for your concern, please go back."

Xiao Tong's tone made Mo Xiyuan suddenly angry, "Xiao Tong, how could you talk to her like that!"

"It's okay, it's okay, Xiao Tong, don't be angry, it's Auntie who is being rude, then you should have a good rest today, and Auntie will come to see you another day." Mother Mo pulled the angry Mo Xiyuan out, "Let's go, Don't be angry, we came at the wrong time today, we came without saying hello, no wonder Xiao Tong can't get used to it..."

Mo Xiyuan held back her dissatisfaction, asked the driver to take her mother back, turned around and went to ask Xiao Tong, "How can you talk to her like that!"

Xiao Tong looked indifferent, "I don't think I'm at fault."

"Do you know who she is!"

"I didn't know it before, but now I can guess a little bit." Xiao Tong smiled casually, "No wonder I had a good physical examination twice a while ago. It turned out to be for this purpose."

"You..." Mo Xiyuan obviously didn't expect Xiao Tong to be so awake now, so he stammered, "What did you say?"

"The inexplicable physical examination before, and you asked me about my mother for no reason. You and I are not related, so it's okay if you care about me, but even my mother cares about it. Mo Xiyuan, I'm just mentally ill. Something went wrong, it's not amnesia, let alone a decline in IQ, so many things are put together, even if you guess, you can guess it."

"What did you guess?"

"I remembered, and you said yesterday that I am your sister." Xiao Tong covered his eyes and smiled wryly, "Oh, this is really embarrassing."

Mo Xiyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she had nothing to say, she didn't know whether she should be happy or worried, Xiao Tong was so smart, she could guess everything without having to figure it out, but Xiao Tong's attitude didn't seem to be willing The way I met my mother.

Mo Xiyuan said: "Mom, she has missed you so much for so many years."

"Really." Xiao Tong nodded, looking a little indifferent.

"She had no choice back then, and she has been regretting for leaving you behind for so many years. You should give her a chance."

"It turned out that she left me on her own initiative." Xiao Tong understood, "Of course, with my father's virtue, if I were her, I would make the same choice."

"Xiao Tong..."

"what is her name?"

"What?" Mo Xiyuan was taken aback.

"Your mother, what's her name?"

Mo Xiyuan said: "Xu Tong."

Xiao Tong hummed, "Got it."

Xiao Tong thought, no wonder grandma said her name was given by her mother. It turned out that her mother did not give her a name before she died, but her mother threw her away without even giving her a name, so grandma threw her away. Mother's name was given to her.

When Xiao Tong was young, he fantasized about whether his life would be different if his mother was still there.Later, when she got older, she thought again that she had to do well and live with her mother's life.Later, Xiao Tong fell into hell, she thought, when she died, it would be better not to see her mother, for a person like herself, why should she embarrass her mother.

Now, she realized that since her mother was still there, everything would be no different.

She came to the world as an unexpected life, and everything she encountered was just what she deserved.
