delicious life

! Duan Feng became excited, pinching Mo Ci's bloody left palm, "Look, your hand is bleeding again. "

"10 yuan... I can take out 10 yuan, and I will give it to you first, and then return it to me when you have money." Mo Ci gently pulled out his arm, and his serious gaze made Duan Feng look away .

"I can pay it off by myself." Duan Feng still insisted, not wanting to explain any more on this topic with Mo Ci, so he was silent for a while, "You may be staying at my house again today."

"Well, I'll help you apply the medicine." Mo Ci looked down at his blood-stained left hand, the white gauze had a large area of ​​black dust besides red...

Going home like this...

Mo Ci took out his mobile phone and called his eldest brother, saying that he would stay at a classmate's house for a day.Fortunately, this time the eldest brother learned that he had returned home at noon, so he didn't ask any more questions, told him a few words to be safe, and then hung up the phone.

Duan Feng sat in the yard, quietly facing the gardenias blooming in the corner of the yard.The tangy fragrance reminded him of that beautiful and transparent smile...

These are flowers and plants planted by my mother.Every plant and every tree was taken care of by that gentle and smiling woman.

But... Now he is the only one taking care of these flowers and plants.

The mother who has been taking care of them became seriously ill two years ago. Because of insufficient medical expenses, she was transferred to a general ward by the hospital. Her condition deteriorated and she passed away suddenly.

During those days, my mother's peaceful face was getting thinner and thinner, and she even spent more time sleeping than waking up.

Duan Feng remembered that when the gardenias were in full bloom, his mother held a snow-white gardenia in her hand hanging on her chest, and with a faint smile, she read strange names and looked at him with half-opened eyes. There is an unknown tenderness and a dreamlike expression, quietly blooming in the quiet fragrance of the room.

The palm holding the gardenia slowly cooled...until it lost its temperature.Sitting in front of the bed, I was illuminated by the sunlight outside the window. Although it was a sunny day, I felt that everything had settled down and turned into a black curtain like ink.

The white sheet covered the mother's sleeping face, hiding her sweet smile.

Three years ago, when the two mothers and sons were living their best lives, the mother opened a small restaurant with some savings from years of small business.Every time he comes back from school, Duan Feng has to help out, collecting bills or serving dishes at the front desk.Although these days are busy and hard, Duan Feng feels deeply satisfied and happy.

Unfortunately, happy times are always short-lived.Once my mother fainted to the ground, and after being sent to the hospital, she was found to have hidden diseases for many years.

In order to treat his mother, Duan Feng gritted his teeth and went out of the small restaurant, but he still couldn't make up for his mother's huge medical expenses.After several decisions, Duan Feng borrowed usury from the local underworld without telling his mother.

On the way home, school, and part-time job, he took the medicinal soup cooked with the cooking skills his mother taught him, and visited his weakened mother.

Every time he sees the sweet smile against the snow-white sheets, he will be satisfied, thinking that everything he has paid is worth it.

Teach him to love, teach him to be brave, teach him to be strong, teach him to never admit defeat, never give up.

Mother is an indispensable guide in his life.

Without a father, he has often been ridiculed in cold eyes since he was a child. When he returned home, he complained to his mother why he did not have a father. The gentle mother always hugged him and shed tears, burning his shoulders with hot tears. He said, sorry.

Over time, Duan Feng got used to the days when there was no father but only mother.Bear all the burdens on your shoulders and reward your mother with excellent grades, but never ask for more than half a reward.For his mother's smile, he can work harder than others.

He wants to prop up a piece of blue sky for his mother, so that this beautiful and peaceful life can continue... But, his mother is gone, left, leaving him alone in this world.

That piece of blue sky... Who would live with him under this piece of blue sky?

At the moment when his mother passed away with a smile, Duan Feng only felt that his eyes were gray and there was no light.Fumbling forward, not knowing how long the road ahead is, I get lost again and again.

A home without a mother is lonely and indifferent.He gritted his teeth and survived the days without a mother.

Neighbors in the neighborhood comfort him in special ways, and often help him take care of the flowers and plants left by his mother in the yard...

There is no mother, but life has to go on, and the earth is still spinning.

Duan Feng held back the grief in his heart, and numb himself in the busy work, so as not to let himself think about it.

The most difficult days were spent in the muddle.However, the countless debts forced him to drop out of school and enter the society early.

In the solitary struggle, he learns to grow, learns how to deal with the world, and learns... how to forget the pain and live a peaceful life.

At the age of 20, I carry a heavy burden on my shoulders. I often look at the dazzling sun with my eyes blurred by sweat, dreaming, planning to own my own restaurant one day, and jointly run this restaurant with a gentle woman like my mother. , An Anle Le life.

However, the accumulated debts made him quite powerless. He worked hard to make money day and night, and even the good friends he made in school were gradually alienated.

This kind of work day and night makes him tired, but every time he repays the loan, he will be more happy.

Duan Feng stubbornly believes that as long as he works harder, life will gradually get better.

The scent of flowers under his nose woke him up from his long memories, and the melodious singing of birds in the yard came to his ears.With the sun shining high above his head, Duan Feng opened the lid of the porridge pot and put the porridge in the extra porcelain bowl, only to find that Mo Ci had been gone for a long time.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Mo Ci was called home by a phone call from his father.

Seeing his father sitting leisurely on the sofa in the living room, Mo Ci's expression changed, he walked up to his father in a few steps, and sat down next to him.

"Dad, how did I find out that you look good today, and your health is very good..."

"Bastard! Dare to talk to your old man, when did I say that I look bad?" The old man's beard twitched, his angry eyes were not intimidating, but the corners of his mouth raised under the beard clearly betrayed him.

"You said on the phone that you were not feeling well, which made me rush back without stopping..." Mo Ci looked at the ruddy and energetic old man, patted his chest that was still jumping wildly, and raised the bar.

"If I don't say I'm unwell, will you come back?" The old man squeezed out a hum from his nose, and continued to attack: "I've been looking for you bastard for a few days, but no one is here, so you went fooling around again?"

"Dad! I just stayed at my classmate's house for two nights, and I didn't cause you any trouble. Also, you called me back urgently, what's the matter?" Mo Ci curled his lips and quickly changed the subject.

No matter how you look at it, the smile under the old man's beard is very weird, which makes him feel like he has been calculated.

Mo Ci leaned against the back of the sofa to make up for the coolness behind him.Don't forget to move your butt to keep a distance from your father.

"A Ci, you have been idle for a while...Three months, you have been playing for three months, it is time to calm down." The old man said seriously, looking at Mo Ci's upright appearance with satisfaction.

"Five days later, I will take you to a banquet... So, from today on, you have to stay in the kitchen with me and get acquainted with the process of the banquet together."

"Ah?" Mo Ci was taken aback, his ears moved slightly, as if he didn't hear his father clearly, "Dad, can you say it again?"

"Bastard! Take my words for nothing!" The old man slapped his big hands, shaking the sofa a few times, "Follow me for these five days, and be my servant!"

"Five days? Follower?" Mo Ci's face was wrinkled, and he realized what a concept five days was.During this period of almost closed training, he will be so tired that he will get down on the ground!No one knew better than him what it would be like for his father to concentrate on it. The previous few kitchen trainings made him painful and fulfilling...

Mo Ci sighed, and nodded helplessly at his father's half-smile expression.

There are not many people who can invite Mr. Mo.

The old man of the Mo family was hired with a lot of money to hold this extraordinary dinner with his own hands, which also surprised everyone.The last time the old man came out of the mountain was at the Liujin Banquet five years ago.

Ji's family is stationed in C City, and Ji Jifeng can invite Mr. Mo to organize a dinner party. The two must not be simple acquaintances.
