Only after I was reborn did I realize that I had green plums

At the winter solstice at the end of the year, compared to the summer when Lin Youxi was drenched in the rain, there are many more people coming to the cemetery this time. Although she only came with Youxi once many years ago, Mei Fang still remembers the location of Youxi's mother very clearly.

The inverted stone lion is the third row forward... I don't know if it is still there.

Well, the stone lion has not been removed, and the cemetery administrators are too lazy.

Or is there any feng shui orientation here?

Memories of the past gradually came to mind, Mei Fang took a deep breath, and walked forward.

As far as he could see, the familiar Xiao Qingmei was kneeling on the ground in front of her favorite mother's grave, bowing her head and saying nothing.

She just occasionally sniffed a few times, or reached out and rubbed her eyes.

Mei Fang was not in a hurry to disturb her, but stood not far away and quietly waited for her.

After glancing at the familiar figure of Mei Fang from the corner of her eyes, Youxi's dim and cloudy eyes flashed a bright color, obviously she was not mentally prepared for Mei Fang's appearance.

"Why... are you here?"

"We agreed to play Monopoly together, but we ended up running so far... It's a pity that I found it all the way."

Mei Fang slowly walked to Lin Youxi's side, and handed the bought fruit to Lin Youxi.

"You came to visit your mother, you must have forgotten to bring something to see her. I'm more sensible, look at me—"

"I bought it."

Lin Youxi pointed to the apples placed in front of her mother's grave, "I'm no longer a child, and now I have money, so I still know how much an apple costs per catty."

"Um, like this."

"You have indeed grown up..."

Mei Fang was a little embarrassed, not knowing where to put the purchased fruit, but Lin Youxi took it.

"Why take it away, my mother doesn't think it's too much."

"..."

Mei Fang watched as Lin Youxi carefully took out the apple and placed it in front of her mother's grave.

While laying out the fruits, she asked Mei Fang, "Have you ever been to my house?"

"Um……"

"Then... have you seen that aunt?"

Mei Fang nodded.

"Look, adults... are all liars."

After saying this, Lin Youxi sniffed and bit her lips tightly, trying not to let the tears swirling in her eyes stay.

Mei Fang was about to say something, but saw a hole in Lin Youxi's trousers at the knee, and some bright red bloodstains were faintly oozing out.

"Did your knee hurt, Youxi?"

"Nothing."

"Let me take a look, if the wound is infected—"

"It's all right now! Don't worry about it!"

Lin Youxi pushed away Mei Fang who was approaching, but Mei Fang seemed very tough and didn't intend to back down in the slightest.

"Don't care about me, who cares about you now?"

"I thought you were not a child anymore, but why do you still like to make trouble like this?"

Lin Youxi didn't answer Mei Fang's words, but just kept hitting Mei Fang and pushed him away resolutely. However, Lin Youxi stopped his movements suddenly, not knowing whether it was because of his knee pain or his emotions were brewing.

When she spoke again, her voice was completely broken.

"My dad...he doesn't love mom anymore."

"He wanted to forget about his mother, so he always brought that aunt home."

"Grandpa and grandma have also passed away."

"Uncle is a heartless scum."

"Now there is only me in this world, and I am the only one... I still remember my mother."

"Look at the tomb next door. The grandma's tomb has been demolished because no one worships it."

"If I don't come to accompany my mother... Mom will really be left here alone forever."

Lin Youxi, with tears in his eyes, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the slightly yellowed photo of his mother on the tombstone. Mei Fang beside him didn't say anything, but habitually took out a pack of tissues from his pocket, and took out one for Lin Youxi to wipe. tears.

He hadn't wiped his tears a few times when Lin Youxi grabbed the hand holding the tissue. Lin Youxi kept blowing his nose vigorously against the tissue in his hand.

One after another.

When Lin Youxi's mood calmed down a little, and the sobbing sound became weaker, Mei Fang bent down to check Lin Youxi's knee wound.

"How did it fall?"

"After I had a fight with my dad, I ran away from the house and fell down."

"Why don't you come to see us? Yuanyuan and I are at home."

"I... just ran to your house and fell."

"Ah this."

Lin Youxi rubbed her red nose, "I felt very uncomfortable when I fell down. When I thought of my father abandoning my mother, I thought that I still have you at least, but my mother is more pitiful than me, so I think I should come to accompany you." Her, comfort her well. You see, I didn't expect that the grandma who was always by her side is gone now. "

Mei Fang looked at the tombstone beside him, then shook his head:

"This grandma's tomb may not have been disposed of, or it may have just been moved to another place."

"how do you know?"

"Tombstones generally have a storage period of more than 20 years, and the cost of cleaning is much higher than the cost of leaving them alone. This grandma's tomb must not have been 20 years old."

Lin Youxi looked at Mei Fang suspiciously, "How do you know so much..."

"Hmph, who do you think your bamboo horse is?"

In fact, Mei Fang only made up the truth based on his vague memory.

"It's okay to leave the wound on your knee like this. If you don't treat it early, it will leave a scar. If it is infected, you will have to amputate your leg."

"Saw it off and saw it off, anyway, my dad doesn't care anymore."

"How could he not care? Isn't that matter still undecided? He wants to discuss it with you..."

"It's impossible to discuss with him."

Lin Youxi bit her lip, "I only have one mother, and she is here now. Dad doesn't care about mother, so naturally he doesn't care about me either."

"Well, you must think that your father doesn't care about you. Do you think I don't care? What about Yuanyuan? Don't the two of us worry about you?"

"..."

Lin Youxi didn't respond directly, but lowered his head silently and stopped talking.

Seeing that she wanted to let go, Mei hurried forward to help Lin Youxi get up.

"hiss--"

Lin Youxi had a painful and struggling expression.

"Can't stand up?"

"The legs are numb."

"How long have you been kneeling here..."

So Mei Fang squatted down and turned his back to Lin Youxi.

"Come on, I'll carry you to the side of the road and take a taxi home."

"..."

After a brief hesitation, Lin Youxi leaned against Mei Fang's back, wrapping his arms around Mei Fang's neck.

"I'll slow down... If you accidentally hurt you, just say it."

"Um."

After feeling the weight of Lin Youxi's weight on her body, Mei Fang stood up cautiously, and was about to carry her forward, but Lin Youxi's feet were still on the ground.

"Huh... you lift your legs up a little bit, how can I carry this on my back."

It's just humiliating me.

"I'm sorry... I haven't been recited very much by others, what do you want, curled up like this?"

Mei Fang supported Lin Youxi's thigh with both hands, and Lin Youxi also tried to bend his legs to clamp Mei Fang's waist. Although she was taller, she didn't weigh much.

Mei Fang was about to get up, but stopped in front of Youxi's mother's grave.

"Do you want to come down again? I have come here, why did you forget to say hello to your mother?"

"No."

Lin Youxi leaned on Mei Fang's shoulder, her voice soft and gentle.

"My mother...she must understand what you mean."
