Although the fence was yellow and dilapidated, when he saw inside, he found that there were no weeds on the ground, and it had obviously been cleared.

Walking into the manor and walking on the path, the surrounding fruit trees are thicker and stronger, and they are also covered with dense fruits, and occasionally a few trees have been plucked from the fruit.

With every step, his heart throbbed, and with each step, his eyes became more red, and with each step, his eyes became more moist, and with every step, he had to take a deep breath again.

It hasn't been back for almost a decade, but not much has changed here.

Looking at the small wooden house in the center of the orchard not far away, he couldn't hold back any longer, and the tears of indisputability came out directly.

Yes, he misses his mother, he misses the mother who worked so hard to raise him to adulthood.

He thought about the mother who hadn't given up on her even though she knew he couldn't be cured.

He thought about his mother, who was cheering and cheering him on all the time.

He thought of the mother who was worried and praying for him every second.

He knew that he was not filial, and he hadn't come back once for so many years, but he had his own hardships, and there were too many things on his shoulders, and at this moment he seemed to have let go of everything and just wanted to pour out his inner emotions.

Even if he hadn't seen his mother yet, just seeing this familiar scene, this familiar residence, was enough to make him teary-eyed.

He walked in quickly, the wooden house has not changed, everything in it is the same as when he left, the wooden house has become more dilapidated, but it is still warm inside.

It was still his haven, and when he entered the cabin, he seemed to be wandering outside, and his heart was completely calm, this was an unprecedented calm, this was an unprecedented peace.

Looking at the spotless room, he walked to his room, and when he saw his room, tears couldn't stop flowing, Rao is a hard-blooded man who has experienced countless bloody battles can't control the collapse of emotions.

His things in the room are as old as before, and they are also spotless, and it can be seen that the room is cleaned every day, and the one who cleans the room is of course the island mother.

Standing at the door of the room stupidly, he seemed to see the island mother cleaning the room, looking at the scene of the photos in his room in a daze, he couldn't cry at this moment, he never wanted to cry so much.

Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch, clack, ......clack, crunch

There was the sound of footsteps on the wooden floor outside the door, because the wooden planks had been used for a long time, and they had long since lost their strength after years of wind and rain.

This is why when walking, there is not only the sound of shoes stepping on the plank, but also the sound of the plank due to the weight.

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, he stood still and did not dare to move.

Hearing that familiar voice, he felt that everything was worth it in this moment.

"Who are you?"

"What are you doing in my house?"

"I don't have much money at home, just a small family that does a simple fruit business."

The voice of the island mother standing behind him came, and when he heard this familiar voice, he slowly turned around.

Under the other party's surprised, shocked, incredulous, and incredulous gaze, he said softly, "Mom, I'm back." ”

Bang dang......

The iron basin she was holding fell from her hand in an instant, and the fruit was sprinkled all over the ground.

The island mother didn't speak, she squatted on the ground with red eyes to pick up the spilled fruits, and every time she reached out to pick up a fruit, tears fell a drop, and the crystal tears slapped on the wooden floor and made a crackling sound.

Although the voice is not loud, every tear that falls, every sound that sounds, is like a sharp knife stabbed in his heart, seeing his mother, who has cried into tears, he can't suppress the emotions that have already collapsed, and the tear glands have collapsed.

"Mom, I'm sorry, I'm back."

He walked over and squatted on the ground, crying while helping his mother pick up the fruits on the ground.

The island mother didn't look at him, and said softly: "What are you doing when you come back, do you still have my mother in your heart?" ”

"Your father has been gone for more than 20 years without any news, and you have also been gone for about 10 years, and if you have a father, you must have a son."

"He's not coming back, and he hasn't brought back a letter with him, so what about you? Do you want to be like him? ”

Hearing Dao Ma mention his father, he thought of himself again, and the sadness at this moment was like a tsunami in the sea, hitting him head-on, drowning his whole body.

Yes, his father left, and he followed in the footsteps of his father, wanting to find his father, wanting to help Brother Teress find the herbs, and wanting to protect the adventure world, but now he has only managed to bring back the herbs, and he has not completed anything other than this one.

At this time, the island mother raised her head and looked at him, her smart eyes were already full of tears, and her eyes were already extremely red, and she was also heartbroken for the two of them who were wandering outside, but at this time, it was inevitable that they would be duplicitous.

Shimashima looked at Dao Ma, looked at the few silver strands on her sideburns, and felt full of guilt, when she was at home, her mother didn't have a single gray hair, but now there are wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and there are gray hairs on her head.

In addition to the day and night thoughts and worries about him and Island Dad, it is impossible for normal humans to age so fast, worrying day and night, worrying day and night, making her age extremely fast.

Looking at this scene, Dao Dao's heart is like a knife, it's all his fault, if he can let go of the burden of commitment and come back often to see Dao Ma, what's the matter? Could there be anything more important than her?

At this moment, fucking love knows no bounds, he just wants to protect this love that is the most precious in a small corner of this world.

"I'm sorry Mom, I'm sorry ......"

"I ......"

Picking up the things, the island mother looked at him like that, suddenly looked at him very seriously, and said: "Now it's not the little boy of the past, it's a man who can't cry, and the little boys are very strong now and can't cry, why do you cry like a girl?" ”

Dao Ma's sudden turn of words made Dao Dao directly stunned on the ground, not knowing whether to cry or laugh, but Dao Ma's mentality made him very grateful, and his mother was very understanding of him and his father, just deliberately spreading his temper.

It's just a simple temper, her years of resentment seem to have been vented all at once, and she has always treated her family in the most tolerant way.

Such a kind person, besides your mother, who else will be silently behind you, when you leave home, worry about you, worry about you, and think about whether you are living a peaceful life and whether you have enough to eat.

Occasionally, I blame you for not going home often, but when you go home, you will have a little emotion, but this little emotion always flashes away, and after the commotion, it seems that it has not happened.

The island mother ignored him, just went to find a towel to wash his face, and said to him: "You have a towel in the cabinet, go get it, wash your face, this look is too embarrassing, if you show it to the neighbors, I can't afford to lose that person." ”

Shima Island grinned and began to fight back: "Mom, we seem to be the only manor here, right?" I wondered if there was no one around, who would see it? ”

They are a suburb here, some distance from the town, who would live in such a place where there is no village and no store?

That's when Dao Ma was fooled by Dao Dad and finally lived here, otherwise Dao Dao Cai didn't believe that Dao Ma would live here, everything was for Dao Dad, thinking about it this way, he would occasionally want to beat Dao Dad.

Because he has left his island mother here for so many years, it doesn't matter if he doesn't come back to see it, he doesn't even have a letter, which is what makes him feel the most annoying.

However, at this time, suddenly there was a lot of noise outside, and he went out to take a look, only to find that there were some elementary school students standing outside, and he looked at the island mother with a confused face, not knowing what the situation was.

"Those are the students in the school, and the teacher takes them to our orchard to identify all kinds of restored fruits, and no one here comes anyway, so I lend them them a little bit of use, which will be more lively."

Daoma's mother looked at the group of children, with loving eyes on her face, and when she saw those children, it was as if she had seen the island of the past, and during his absence, these children and the letters and photos sent by the island were her only sustenance.

Under the leadership of the teacher, those children walked in the orchard in an orderly manner, and their behavior quality was still very high, without loud noise, no littering, and no wanton trampling on flowers and plants, all in all, a group of very well-behaved children.

When they passed in front of the island mother, they all turned their heads and greeted in a sweet voice: "Hello Aunt Maggie." ”

But they looked at Dao Dao who was standing on the side very suspiciously, and they didn't know who this strange big brother was, but he was standing in Aunt Maggie's house, because the children were very good, and Aunt Maggie didn't seem to like letting people into the cabin.

But now that there are people standing in it, of course they feel strange and confused.

Then he looked at the teacher next to him, looked at him with innocent eyes and said, "Teacher Oki, why does Aunt Osha have a big brother at home?" ”

"Yes, yes, didn't Mr. Oki say that Aunt Osha doesn't like people to enter the cabin?"

"Why is there a big brother now?"

These children spoke in a milky voice, looking at the teacher who was called Oki with those eager eyes.

Mr. Oki looked very mature and steady, wearing a black suit and a pair of thick black glasses, he pushed his eyes and said, "Mr. Oki doesn't know this, let me ask." ”

Saying that, he came to the front of Dao Ma, looked at Dao Dao suspiciously, and said, "Who is this person Jiu Lan?" Why is it in your house? ”

As soon as he called this, not to mention Dao Ma's frowning, even Dao Dao frowned, and suddenly a nameless anger was about to erupt from the bottom of his heart.
