Waiting for Shuang'er to get dressed, Wei Xiaobao lit the candle, the dim candlelight lit up again, Shuang'er's little face was still red, and he lowered his head shyly, not daring to look directly at Wei Xiaobao, Wei Xiaobao knew that what happened just now made Shuang'er very embarrassed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Shuang'er, go and pack up the salute, let's leave on the fourth watch. There are some things, I still have to explain to my mother, and I will wait for you here in a while. ”

Afraid that Shuang'er would be embarrassed, Wei Xiaobao hurriedly instructed Shuang'er to clean up and salute.

"Leave tonight, don't you tell the other sisters?" Shuang'er wondered.

Wei Xiaobao shook his head, "I said, they are even more sad, it's better not to say it, when the time comes, crying and crying, I'm afraid it won't be easy to leave." Wei Xiaobao has experienced too much of this kind of separate scene, women are made of water, and when so many women cry, Yangzhou City will have to cause floods.

Shuang'er obediently walked out of the house, Wei Xiaobao took out the things written in advance from under the bed, put them in his arms, got up and went out of the house, He Yuan was exceptionally quiet tonight, even the frogs in the pond and the branches knew it, they all stayed in the quilt honestly, closed their mouths obediently, the air was silent for a while, as if a storm was coming, Wei Xiaobao's mood was like this dead night, extremely depressed.

Along the bluestone road in the courtyard, one by one turned the boudoir of the women, the room of the women, surprisingly quiet, none of them were lit, Wei Xiaobao thought that all the women were asleep, and felt a little better, but Wei Chunhua's room was lit by candlelight, Wei Xiaobao knew that no matter when he left, his mother would not sleep quietly.

With a slight push, the door squeaked open, it was so late, Mo Fei knew that I was coming to say goodbye, "Mother knows you will come, come in." Without waiting for Wei Xiaobao to enter the door, Wei Chunhua spoke.

Wei Xiaobao agreed, pushed the door and entered the house, Wei Chunhua sat in front of the window, but was holding a brand-new green shirt in her hand, "This is the clothes that my mother just made for you, I'm going out, my mother has nothing to say, let's change this dress." ”

Wei Xiaobao's eyes were red, and he actually cried, no matter when, it is always his mother who loves himself the most, understands himself the most, and cares about himself the most.

Mother's hand line,

Wanderer's top.

Dense seams on the verge of travel,

I'm afraid I'll be delayed.

Whoever says an inch is careless,

Reported three Chunhui.

Wei Xiaobao couldn't help but think that this song by Meng Jiao's "The Wanderer's Yin", the grace of birth and nurturing, and the love of motherhood are always the greatest and most selfless. Tears rolled and flowed, Wei Xiaobao didn't wipe it, but knelt on the ground and banged, and kowtowed to Wei Chunhua three times, "My son is not filial, my son is guilty, I can't be filial under my mother's knees, and my son can't live with my mother..."

"Silly boy, get up, you're all a father, and you're still crying, what do you look like." Wei Chunhua held back her tears and reached out to pick Wei Xiaobao up.

"Put it on, my mother knows you're leaving tonight." Wei Chunhua came to the front, helped Wei Xiaobao change his clothes, and reluctantly looked up and down, left and right, and looked around Wei Xiaobao several times, as if she wanted to imprint her son's parting appearance deeply in her mind.

"What is this?" Waiting for Wei Chunhua to help Wei Xiaobao change his clothes, Wei Xiaobao took out a pile of things and handed them to Wei Chunhua.

"What? Leave the book? …… Son... You... You can't be angry if you want to. Wei Chunhua looked down, a pile of paper, more than 30 sheets, all of which were resignation letters, Wei Chunhua's body immediately tilted in anger and turned her back on her anger.

"Mother..."Wei Xiaobao hurriedly mixed with Wei Chunhua, and after a while of busy work, Wei Chunhua woke up slowly.

"Son, you can't, which of these girls is not sincere to you, and they are dedicated to living with you, all these years, you have traveled south and north, wandering all over the world, taking one back today, and understanding one tomorrow, which of them has disliked you, women are the most important name, you are like this? What's the matter, your conscience can't let the dog eat it? The more Wei Chunhua spoke, the more angry she became, pointing at Wei Xiaobao and scolding.

Wei Xiaobao didn't refute, helped Wei Chunhua to sit down, and waited for her mother to stop scolding, Wei Xiaobao explained, "Mother, what you said, I understand in my heart, they followed me, suffered a lot of grievances, and I didn't take good care of them, and I felt guilty, but my son is only eighteen, how old are they, they are all at a good age, youth, and the eldest is only ten years older than Er, I don't want to delay them, this trip is dangerous, not as before, I know in my heart, if I have three long and two short, I can't return to my mother to do filial piety, then what about them?" One by one, they are widowed at a young age, and they will not feel at ease when they die, and they can't take care of them when they live, and when they die, they don't want to drag them down. ”

After a while, Wei Chunhua said, Wei Chunhua was speechless, Wei Xiaobao's hard work, Wei Chunhua naturally understood, and after a while, Wei Chunhua said, "Son, women are divorced, throughout the ages, it is a great humiliation, if it is known, they finally want to remarry, but it will not be easy." ”

Wei Xiaobao nodded, Wei Xiaobao said, "No, these things, you just secretly let them look at them, and they will tear them up immediately after reading them, they have not officially visited the church with their son, whether they are husband and wife, outsiders will not know, don't worry about the name." ”

Wei Xiaobao took a letter of resignation and explained to Wei Chunhua, "The child writes very clearly, when the time comes, whether to leave or stay, as they are willing to stay, they will be cattle and horses in the next life, and they will repay them, and those who are unwilling to leave will give them two million taels per person to settle down, which can be regarded as a little compensation for them." ”

"How much? Two million taels? Xiaobao, you can't go crazy. When Wei Chunhua heard this, his head was big, what was the concept of two million taels of silver at that time, it was simply astronomical, enough to buy a county seat, food and clothing were worry-free, and he couldn't spend it in a few lifetimes, two million for one person, thirty-eight people, more than 70 million taels, and the annual income of the Qing Dynasty was only more than 20 million taels, what did you want to do with this money? It didn't scare Wei Chunhua to death.

"Mother... Are you okay. ”

Seeing Wei Chunhua's eyes in a daze, his eyes wandering, Wei Xiaobao hurriedly stepped forward to comfort, "Mother, you don't know yet, the most important thing our Red Star lacks is silver, over the years, Qianzhuang, underwear, cigarettes, bathing centers, have earned more than this amount, but we are afraid that you will worry, and we have never dared to tell you, even if your son doesn't know how much money we have now, you don't have to worry about this, just leave it to Lele to do." Silver? There is no shortage in our family, just give it to them, be with me, for so many years, there is no merit and hard work, no matter what, they are owed to them. ”

"Hey... Hey, you can do whatever you say, it's just that the slam scared my mother. ”

Wei Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief, until now, she is still a little confused, it is like a dream, I can't imagine that the little kid who sold singing and telling stories in Qinglou at the beginning has actually become a big man in a rich country, this news, Wei Chunhua wants to digest it, it is estimated that it will take a while.
