Chapter 1 Farewell to the World
-->
A bitter autumn wind blew by, and the yellowish-spotted willow leaves flew away from the branches. Before they could see the lawn on the shore, they fell silently into the dark green and hideous pool.
In the bitter autumn wind, Zhang Liping, the daughter-in-law of Vice Mayor Wang of the provincial capital, embraces her daughter who is less than one year old. She forgot fatigue, hunger, the joy of life and the sorrow of death. She came to this small county town far away from the downtown city, and staggered and stumbling on the banks of the famous Acacia River.
Oh, in this world, what else is worth missing, pursuing and dying?
Parents, sisters, parents-in-law, husband, or childhood sweethearts?
What other unfortunate woman belongs to me?
Happiness, joy?
Ideal, future?
Or the minimum right to survive?
Zhang Liping repeated and repeated, tossing these question marks, meditating and shaking her head;
Shake your head and meditate.
Oh, the only thing worth missing is him - Li Gang, a childhood sweetheart who is playing big together!
It was Li Gang who was once so passionate and long-lasting!
However, I have long become the wife of the Wang family and the abandoned woman of the Wang family. Why should I miss him and beg him to come and meet again after a long separation by the river of lovesickness?
The fruits that fall to the ground can never regenerate on the branches.
Zhang Liping closed her standard almond eyes, which were twisted by pain, sadly, and two strings of sour tears dripped down, flowing across the corner of her mouth, and broke on the face of the baby in her swagger.
“Wow—wow—!”
The daughter was frightened, opened her fearful eyes and started crying with all her might.
Oh, daughter, don’t cry, don’t cry!
Liping lowered her head and sadly pressed her face against the child Yingwu's face.
"A stinky girl movie, she's still a vixen when she grows up. I wonder who she's going to be fascinated with!"
My mother-in-law's curse was like drums and thunder, rumbled and hit Liping's eardrums.
On the day my daughter was born, the nurse in the hospital just reported her gender, and the mother-in-law opened her mouth and said this spell!
Daughter, kiss, mom's life is miserable, and you are miserable.
Let's go, leave the Wang family, leave this noisy and cold world that abandons us, and let's go with my mother.
I miss you and hate you, and I will stop until I return.
Once a person has escaped from the throne, he will have nothing to ask for or fear.
Zhang Liping, the daughter-in-law of Vice Mayor Wang’s family in the provincial capital, stood silently under the century-old weeping willows by the Acacia River.
In late autumn, under the cold moonlight, the willow leaves have already withered and curled up, as if they were tired of the rushing river of the Acacia River from spring to summer, from autumn to winter, rising and falling, and sometimes quiet and noisy.
Gusts of wind blow, sarcastic
The willow leaves scattered away from the branches that depend on for survival, and drifted silently into the river, allowing the water to shake.
The old tree trunk that bent over the back was cracked, with rough cortex, and bursts of tear-like mucus, standing alone on the river bank.
Liping leaned on the willow trunk with a depressed back, driving away the scene of her childhood life that was coming from time to time
She didn't want to think about it, or she didn't dare to think about it.
Let it pass forever!
Now, let it end from now on.
Let the beautiful childhood and happy memories die, die, die! die!!!
Liping raised her waist and stood on the steep shore. After taking another step, the mother and daughter were about to be buried in the abyss by the Lovesick River, leaving forever the sad world she was attached, resented, and feared.
The water of the Acacia River has a long and long river. In front of the old weeping willows with hundreds of willow branches, it forms a sharp turn of about 90 degrees from south to east. It takes a long time to strike out a cool jade green pool.
The gurgling water flows upstream in the riverbed where fish swims, teasing the moonlight, shining silver waves, and stroking the round pebbles with great pride.
As soon as I entered the Bitan, it was like a little monk accidentally entered a large temple. He was so scared that he was quiet and at a loss. He put a deep blue pool in a more majestic, solemn and vast.
Acacia River, this is an attractive and poetic name!
However, when people hear her legend, they can know how sad, sad, and resentful the name:
In that long time, a young couple, childhood sweethearts, once loved each other here, and the heaven and earth had a ally.
It’s hateful that the girl’s father dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and breaks up the couple and betroths his daughter to a family outside the family.
In the red sedan chair, the frustrated young man tied his hands and feet under the urging of the suona, fell to his body and jumped into the cliff and sank into the bottom of the pond;
There was a line of communication between me. On the night of the wedding night, while the family was drunk, the girl jumped out of the back window and headed straight to the riverside, chasing the first to go to the deep pool.
The next day, people were on a lonely weeping willow branch on the shore and saw a long cry of love birds crying.
The villagers all say that birds are the incarnation of humans, and humans are the soul of birds. The Acacia River has been named since then and has been passed down from generation to generation.
Afterwards, the weeping willows by the pond were endless, the old trees passed away, and the new seedlings were replenished.
Therefore, the old weeping willow in front of me has gone through a hundred years of vicissitudes and is still tenacious and vigorous.
What a tragic story, will the tragedy of history happen again today?
Liping hugged her daughter in her arms tightly, closed her eyes several times and looked back sadly. The surrounding flat farmland and the japonica rice had already been harvested and cut, which seemed even more lonely and remote.
The mountains in the distance seem to be swaying faintly under the fog
Ah, at the end of the path leading to the county town, is there a figure running towards this side?
That figure, that step, and that spirit are clearly Li Gang!
Liping didn't dare to hesitate. She was afraid that she would have hallucinations at this moment. She was afraid that the hallucinations would shake her fragile and fragile will. She gritted her teeth and raised her right leg desolately——!
“Wow wow wow wow wow!”
The daughter suddenly burst into tears like thunder in her arms, shocking the earth!
Liping hesitated, her thin cheeks pressed against the girl's childish face, and sour tears dripped over her biological flesh.
On a blind date with tears, my daughter actually smiled, smiling so innocently, so brilliantly, so pure, as if full of gratitude for her mother to give her life and her longing for her future life!
Perhaps, people know gratitude and joy as soon as they are born?
With the help of the moonlight, Liping looked at her daughter's smiling face for a long time, and suddenly realized that since she gave her daughter a young life, she had no right to deprive her of it without authorization!
Liping changed her mind and decided to leave alone if she wanted to leave!
She decided to keep her poor daughter in the world and let her rely on her own luck to survive, grow, vent, and pursue dreams in this world.
After a long time, Liping raised her head—
Why, Li Gang is still running towards this side?
Is it a phantom? or a figure?
Can't delay any more!
Liping took off her coat and shirt and laid it flat at the root of the willow tree. She gently placed her daughter on it, lowered her head, and gave her a last long, deep kiss.
Chapter completed!
