"Wench, come here," Zhong Mingwei cut off Meiya's words, and on the other side of Meiya's dark eyes, "help me up, I kowtow to my parents."
"Good..." Meiya didn't say anything more. Now she helped Zhong Mingwei up and moved to the table. Meiya held Zhong Mingwei's arm in front of her and knelt down little by little. Then Meiya knelt beside him. The cold muddy water soaked Meiya's flannelette. Meiya looked at the dirty snow in front of her. Somehow, her nose suddenly turned sour, and then she had a big hand She took her cold hand, and Meiya sniffed hard, then whispered to the shabby table, "father and mother, this is Mingwei. It's my man. It's very kind to me..."
Meiya can't say any more. She tries to keep herself from crying, but the tears can't stop at all. She falls in the dirty snow and her thin body twitches violently. In fact, she's not sad. She doesn't have any memory about her father and mother. She never thinks about what kind of life she would have if her father and mother were still alive, and she doesn't even dream about it If possible, Zi's living environment from her childhood has determined that she is not a dreamer. She is more pragmatic than anyone and knows when to do what kind of things. So she used to wash the best clothes in Huanyi Bureau, and later in Yanxi palace. She gets up earlier than everyone every day. She knows what is the most important thing for her.
As for her parents, she may have expected it when she was a child, but when she grew up, she gradually faded out of her life. She never felt that her parents meant anything to her. Yes, her life, her parents did not participate in it. Her everything depends on her own hands. Her parents are strange and distant to her.
But today, she still can't help crying. She is so happy now. Her life with Zhong Mingwei is sweeter than honey. She is so eager to share this sweetness and happiness with others. Then she finds out that she misses her parents so much. She wants them to know that she has a good life and thanks them for giving her life It's her marriage to Zhong Mingwei.
She really missed them.
"Mom and Dad, I'm Mingwei," Zhong Mingwei said solemnly as he threw paper money into the fire pot. "You're in heaven, and you see how I treat Meiya in this life." here, he reached out his hand to stop Meiya, who was sobbing. He said softly, "come on, girl, let's kowtow to dad and mom."
They kowtowed three heads to the simple table. Zhong Mingwei took out his pa and handed it to Meiya, but Meiya didn't pick it up. Instead, he kowtowed three more words. When Zhong Mingwei was wondering, he heard Meiya whisper: "Miss Duan, I'm sorry."
Yes, she's really sorry for Miss Duan. She took the name of others, occupied the men of others, and lived a good life that didn't belong to her.
Zhong Mingwei looks at Meiya's forehead stained with dirty snow, and throws several pieces of paper money into the fire basin.
Duan Rulan, thank you.
……
On the eighth day of April, the 33rd year of Jiasheng, ningguta.
When Pang Yi and Gu Changlin came back, it was already dark. Zhong Mingwei and Meiya had already fallen asleep. When they heard the noise outside, Meiya had to open the window and look at the flash of the torch outside. Then there was a knock on the door.
"It should be Pang Yi that they are back," Meiya lit the candle on the Kang head and left the Kang in her clothes. Seeing that Zhong Mingwei was going to come down, Meiya was too busy to stop. "Don't go out, it's cold outside, and the ground is slippery. I'll see if there's anything to do. I'll talk about it tomorrow."
"OK," Zhong Mingwei nodded, took the lampshade and put it on the candlestick, handed it to Meiya, and said, "you too, go back quickly, don't freeze."
"Good." Meiya went out with a candlestick.
"Who is it?" Meiya asked as she looked out.
"Madam, we are back." Pang Yi's voice came from outside.
"It's really you!" Meiya is overjoyed. She trots to the front of the gate in three steps and two steps. She pulls the bolt open and the cold wind rushes in. Meiya is so busy that she closes her cotton padded robe and opens the gate at the same time. Facing the outside humanity, "hurry up, don't freeze."
