At her mother's funeral, Xiangling saw a strange mother and daughter dressed in black, holding a large bouquet of small wrinkled chrysanthemums.
Xiang Ling fixed her eyes on it for a long time, her brain was racing, and she kept searching for all the kind faces in the house, but no matter how hard he tried, she still hadn't found the answer, or the source of the mother and daughter, and just when she was a little confused, the elder among them spoke.
Xiang Ling listened carefully to her word by word: "Good sister, thank you for taking care of PengGe for so many years, you have worked hard, I bow to you here, I hope you go all the way."
Xiang Ling was even more inexplicable, she turned her head to look at her father on the side, she wanted to find the answer from his father, but her father's eyes said everything.
Her mother was gone, and she had seen her father sad, she had cried bitterly, and the sorrow and sorrow of the multiplying white hair on his head, but she really could not be sure now whether her father's hair had been grayed overnight for his mother's departure, or whether it was because she was thinking of the woman in front of her, the woman who looked dignified.
The more Xiangling thought about it, the more heartbroken she became, she was not worth it for her mother, and in her memory, her mother had always been her father first.
She had thought that the love between her father and mother was faithful.
She had always dreamed of finding a gentle man like her father to marry and have children, but now, her mother's love had deceived her, and her father's tall image had collapsed in an instant, and he did not know how to face his mother who had just died, nor how to face her father, whom she had always respected.
He hated the woman in front of him, and she was the third person who interfered with her parents' feelings.
She is her father's lover, Xiangling can't face the facts in front of her, she feels unworthy for her mother, her mother's warmth is still there, how can he... How could he have other women?
She hated cheating, and she thought that her mother must have been kept in the dark, had been deceived by the person she trusted most.
Xiang Ling could no longer suppress the anger in her heart, she could no longer care about whether the family ugliness could be publicized, she took her father with one hand, and pulled the woman with the other hand to go to a room where no one was, she had to ask the men and women in front of her where the conscience was, how they could raise an eyebrow at her mother's funeral.

In Xiangling's heart, her mother is the happiest person under the heavens, and she still remembers that when she was a child, her mother smiled and told him the love story of her and her father, and at that time, her mother's eyes were full of happiness.
She said: "I and your father have not met before marriage, at that time, I only knew that a big bride came to my house to give me a matchmaker, and as soon as I listened to the matchmaker, your grandfather and grandmother satisfactorily agreed to the marriage, so at the age of 20, I married your father without understanding, your father is a rare cultural person in the village, he is gentle and courteous, I often thought, Heaven can really take care of me, let me meet my Ruyi Langjun in a daze ..."
"Later, we have you and your brother, your father is really a slave to your children, since he has you, he has taken you in his arms as soon as he comes home, making you giggle, your brother is even more naughty, as soon as he sees your father, he argues to ride a horse, your father!" I still remember one time, your brother wanted to ride a horse, but I didn't think that your father flashed to his waist, and his whole face wrinkled up in pain, and that time, he was still in the hospital for a week! ”
Those warm loves were still swirling back and forth in Xiang Ling's mind, but everything in front of her gave her a slap.
The woman in black and Xiangling's father entered the room together under her drag, and she said in a minus 38 degree tone: "Speak quickly!" When do you start? How can you do this to my mother? And you, look at you like a human being, but what are you doing! ”

The woman in black said with a complicated expression: "Xiangling, I am to blame for this, I should not have appeared at this time, but all this has nothing to do with your father, we have not seen each other for many years, the last time I saw your father was in the hospital, and your father is taking care of your mother." ”
That was the first time I met your father after parting, it was also the first time I saw your mother, your mother is a good wife, a good mother, the reason why I appear at the funeral today is also what your mother asked for, she said: "I know that I don't have much time for myself, I will return Pengge (Xiangling's father) to you today, I hope that you can take good care of him after I leave, and I hope that you can come to give me the last journey when the time comes." ”
Your father and I have known each other for a long time, and we can be counted as green plum bamboo horses! We had all reached the point of talking about marriage, and it was my fault that I had abandoned your father.
That year, I was 22 years old, and your father and I had already made a private lifelong agreement, and I swore that I would not marry him in this life, but fate would make people, and I could not sacrifice my brother's life for my own happiness.
My brother was a likable child, he was only 12 years old that year, he had good academic performance and was versatile, but god gave him a lot of advantages, but at the same time, he did not forget to give him pain, he was sick, stomach cancer.
Our family was very poor, and we couldn't support my brother's medical expenses, but someone was willing to help my brother pay for all the medical expenses, but only if I had to marry him.
At that time, I hesitated, but your father and I both knew that even if we two families gave everything, we would not be able to raise so much fees, so I accepted the fate of the arrangement.
I rejected your father, and I decided to marry an old man in his 40s and do his house filling, but unfortunately, before marriage, I found out that I was pregnant with your father's child, and that child was the girl you just saw standing next to me outside, and I thought that he would not take me, and I could go back to your father.
I was so naïve that he wouldn't let me go at all, he said he didn't mind if I was pregnant with someone else's child, he loved me, he could accept everything about me, even if I was a torn shoe worn by someone else.
I married him, but the married life really made me very miserable, he married me, but constantly humiliated me, just because I was not the perfect body he wanted, he tortured me for 7 years before letting me go, I divorced.
After the divorce, I went back to the village where we lived, and I wanted to take the child to meet your father, but at that time, your father was already married to your mother, and with you, I looked at the happiness of your family of three, and I told myself that I could not disturb your life, so I left the village with the child.
I met your father in the hospital last year, it was the first time we met after we separated, although your father and I are not the same as we were then, but I always had it in my heart, so I decided to go up and say hello, and it was also that time, I met your mother, and I told him about our past.

Xiang Ling, who was full of hatred, listened to their stories, and she was only touched by gratitude, she thanked the woman she had initially identified as Xiao San for not disturbing their lives, and she began to admire the woman in front of her.
She knew that her mother was gone and that she would never be able to return to them. But those who are alive have to move on. Her father was the one she loved most, and she didn't want the rest of his life to be spent alone and blamed.
She wants to help her father renew her lost love, she wants her wandering sister to return to the family, and she wants her father to live in love for the rest of his life.

Many difficulties in life are actually not real difficulties, the reason why they are difficult is self-limiting, Xiangling's mother just left, her father's lover appeared, which was originally intolerable, if Xiangling did not ask the reason, she would be killed with a shot, then sadly not only his father, but also herself.
Who has not longed for the enthusiasm of youth like fire, but some people are destined to rub shoulders with the love in their hearts, if they have been grumpy, it can only end up depressed.
People often say: "All roads lead to Rome", this road is not passable, just change the road, do not have to go to the black road. Life is like this, and so are feelings.
