Yang Dong's mother is a warm-hearted person. Whether it is a homeless person who comes to beg or a passerby who is thirsty and hungry, she always brings a bowl of rice and a cup of tea with a smile. When the neighbors and villagers encountered difficulties of any size, Yang Dong’s mother was always willing to help them. Everyone praised him and said that good people will be rewarded.
Young Yang Dong was dissatisfied with his mother. Because one day he came home from school and found that his beloved little bamboo flute was missing. It was a beautiful short purple-red bamboo flute, which was bought as a tenth birthday gift for Yang Dong from his uncle who was on a business trip to Shanghai. In the countryside at that time, it was an absolutely rare foreign thing. Although Yang Dong can't play a complete tune, it is like a magic flute. As soon as he blows it, Yang Dong will follow a group of friends behind him. Only the little ones who play the best with Yang Dong will Partner, Yang Dong would generously let him blow it. Now where is the flute?
Yang Dong asked his mother in panic, and her mother said: "Just now, a mother and daughter passed by our house. They were very hungry. When they came to our house to rest and have a bowl of rice, the little girl fell in love with your bamboo flute and refused to leave. , cried till she had tears and runny nose, so I gave her as a gift. By the way, that little girl was so pretty, with watery eyes…"
Yang Dong cried loudly, turned around and ran away. He wanted to recover this most precious treasure, but the mother and daughter had long since disappeared. Later, Yang Dong ignored his mother for several days, but her mother was still kind and charitable.
Yang Dong grew up, but his mother fell into bed due to a serious illness and quickly depleted her little savings. Yang Dong worked hard to pay for his mother's treatment. He had no time, energy and financial resources to fall in love. His family conditions also discouraged the girls around him.
The major issue of her son's marriage has not been resolved for a long time, and Yang Dong's mother left with regrets. After dealing with his mother's funeral, Yang Dong also left his hometown and worked hard alone.
On this day, the depressed Yang Dong came to a mountain village to play and relax alone. The scenery of the mountain village is famous far and wide. From a distance, the red leaves on the mountains look really beautiful, but when you get closer, you are shocked by its poverty and dilapidation. The late autumn in the mountains is almost cold, and Yang Dong unexpectedly finds a little girl with bare feet! He really couldn't pretend not to see it, so he immediately took her to the store, bought her a pair of beautiful cotton shoes, and gave her all the money left in his pocket.
Yang Dong hesitated for a moment when he did this. Yang Dong was not the only tourist who came here. There were many tourists who had better economic conditions than him. Why should he do this?
But after thinking about it for a moment, Yang Dong realized that it was because of his mother. She didn't leave a penny of inheritance, but she passed on her warm-heartedness to him. There was no way around it. A situation is easy to change, but a talent is hard to change. That's it.
Yang Dong continued to walk alone admiring the red leaves. Unknowingly, it was getting late, so he hurriedly walked down the mountain. Unexpectedly, he tripped and fell to the ground. A heartbreaking pain came over him. Unfortunately, his right ankle was sprained!
At this time, there was no tourist around. I took out my mobile phone and saw that there was no signal. Yang Dong finally struggled to stand up and tried to step on his sprained foot. He immediately screamed in pain and couldn't walk at all. It was over now!
Just then, a girl appeared on the mountain road. The girl walked towards him and asked softly: "What's wrong with you?"
Yang Dong smiled bitterly and said, "I twisted my foot."
The girl looked around, walked to a half-dead tree, and struggled to break off a thick branch. The girl was panting from exhaustion before she successfully broke the branch. She handed it to Yang Dong and said, "You can hold on to this until you reach the bottom of the mountain."
Yang Dong was overjoyed and immediately took the branch, but he still couldn't walk. He couldn't jump down the mountain with one foot, right? The girl was stunned for a moment when she saw this situation, and then said with a blushing face: "Help me!"
Yang Dong was shocked and ashamed, and was really embarrassed to help others, but the girl grabbed Yang Dong's hand and put it on her shoulder…
The two people hurried down the mountain before dark. In the clean and warm home of the villagers, Yang Dong asked the girl: "Why were you willing to help me just now? Aren't you afraid that I am a bad person?"
The girl pursed her lips and smiled and said, "I saw the scene where you bought shoes for the little girl earlier. Bad people wouldn't do that."
Yang Dong suddenly realized that it was his own small kindness that saved him, not the ghosts in the village , but his mother.
The girl's name was Xiaojing. In the days that followed, Yang Dong got to know her sweetly. As time passed, Yang Dong found that he had fallen deeply in love and couldn't extricate himself. He understood that Xiaojing also liked him, but Xiaojing would Wouldn't he be like the girl I met before who disliked him for not having a house or a car?
After thinking about it for a while, Yang Dong decided to take her back to his hometown. Although his mother was gone, the old house was still there. Yang Dong’s roots were there. Yang Dong felt a sense of security every time he returned there. Yang Dong believed in his mother’s spirit in heaven. It will give you inspiration.
The hometown has changed so much that Yang Dong, who hasn't been back for several years, can't recognize it, while Xiaojing's face shows a surprised and thoughtful look. When Yang Dong took her into the old house that had been weathered for decades, she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh my god, is this your hometown? I really feel like I was in a previous life. Really, I It seems like I’ve been here before, but I can’t remember whether it was in a dream or reality.”
Yang Dong was inexplicably moved after hearing this, feeling that the two of them had become closer invisibly. Maybe this is called "fate"?
What happened next made Yang Dong unbelievable.
Xiaojing screamed again. She stared motionlessly at the photo of Yang Dong's mother on the wall, and kept saying: "Is this real? Is this real? Oh my god, am I dreaming again?"
Then, she turned around and hugged Yang Dong gently. Yang Dong found that her body was shaking slightly. Yang Dong, who was not sure why, hugged her and patted her gently to comfort her. After a while, Xiaojing raised her head from Yang Dong's arms and said with tears: "I have definitely been to your house, and I will always remember your mother's appearance, because in my heart, she is the kindest person in the world, and, She also gave me a treasure, which I have treasured for many years."
Xiaojing carefully took out something from the small bag she carried.
It was a bamboo flute, a purple-red, short bamboo flute.
More than ten years of time flew by in an instant…
Yang Dong held Xiaojing's hand and stood in front of his mother's portrait and burst into tears. It turned out that his mother left Yang Dong the most precious inheritance that would enrich his life.
