Chapter 781. The Things of the past
Yun Qing couldn't help but turn to look at him in the summer. This little man really did have an extraordinary ability; he could make her no longer fear men, and turn her into a slut in front of him. And now, he could also calm her down when she encountered such a major change.
"Uncle Shi, can you tell me what's going on?" Yun Qing asked slowly, as she held onto Xia Keke's hand gently. Right now, only he could give her a sense of security.
"Xiumei, prepare dinner first." Shi Chang Geng said, "Pure, you and Xiaohu can go upstairs to play for a while."
"Oh." "En!" Shi Jun. Then, with a curious look, Shi Xiaohu led her upstairs.
After moving his daughter away, Shi Chang Geng looked at Yun Qing again, "Xiao Qing, come with me."
Shi Chang Geng brought Yun Qing to the bedroom and pushed the door open. "Xiao Qing, this was your mother and I."
Yun Qing walked into the room and did not say anything, but her gaze unconsciously landed on the wall. There was a huge wedding photo, and the two people in the photo were not unfamiliar to her, one was Shi Chang Geng, and the other was a beautiful woman who looked similar to her, her mother, Yun Fang!
There was also a dressing table in the room. On the dressing table, there was also a picture. The person in the picture was smiling brightly with a hint of hesitation. This person was also her mother, Yun Fang.
In fact, throughout the entire bedroom, Yun Fang's picture could be seen everywhere. As long as one opened their eyes, no matter from which angle, they would definitely be able to see it.
"Uncle Shi, you, you two are married?" Yun Qing couldn't help asking.
"This is our marriage certificate." Shi Chang Geng handed Yun Qing a red book, "Xiao Qing, look at the date on it."
"June 29, 2001?" Yun Qing mumbled to herself, "I, I remember calling her the first day, why didn't she tell me about this at all?"
"Because the day before yesterday, you called your mother to tell her that you'd gotten your diploma and that you'd found a job." Shi Chang Geng said in a low voice, "Your mother doesn't want to tell you, because she knows you don't want to return to this place that makes you feel ashamed. She knows you want to stay away from Mu Yang County, away from everything, including her mother."
"But, but since she married you, why did she commit suicide?" Yun Qing couldn't understand.
"Do you remember before your mother died, you called her and said you could practice on your own at last, and she wouldn't have to worry about that anymore?" Shi Chang Geng asked.
Yun Qing thought about it for a moment before nodding. "Yes, it seems to be true."
Your mother gave birth to you at the age of eighteen, and she committed suicide at the age of forty. Although she had lived for forty years, after what happened when she was nineteen, the remaining twenty-one years were no different than a walking corpse to her. During those twenty-one years, the only thing that supported her was to raise her. "When you finally grew up, when you finally became independent and she was no longer worried about you, she chose death because she knew that even though you never said anything, you always felt ashamed of yourself because you had a mother like her. As long as she was alive, you would never be able to lift your head up again.
"You, you mean I, I killed her?" Yun Qing asked, trembling.
"No, Little Qing, if it wasn't for you, no matter if it was me or your mother, they would never blame you." Shi Chang Geng shook his head, "It's just that, Little Qing, no matter what your mother has done, I want you to understand that in my heart, she will always be the purest and most beautiful woman. She is also the greatest mother in this world, and she has given up everything, including her life, for you.
Yun Qing stood there in a daze. She really wanted to cry, but she did her best to hold back her tears. After what seemed like a long time, she finally opened her mouth and asked, "She, what is her last wish?"
"Although your mother married me and even gave birth to purity, she did not love me. She only thanked me, and purity is her reward. In her entire life, she has only loved one person, and that is your father." Shi Chang Geng said slowly, "She was unable to marry your father, but that was not your father's fault. He died to protect you and your mother, so your mother always hoped that you could recognize your ancestors.
"No, impossible!" Yun Qing was obviously very excited, "I don't have the surname 'Tan'. I have nothing to do with the Tan Family. It's exactly what they did to my mother!"
Qing, don't be agitated, I won't force you to do anything, neither will your mother, so she has never told you these things. She only promised me that if you go back to Mu Yang County, and if you stay there for a long time, then she will tell you these things, otherwise, she will tell me never to tell you. Shi Chang Geng sighed softly. "Although she really wants you to do that, she won't blame you if you don't want to."
After a brief pause, Shi Chang Geng continued, "Actually, Xiao Qing, what happened that year has already been a long time. Although the Tan Family was wrong, there were some things that were understandable in that era, so I still hope that you can seriously consider it."
Yun Qing looked at the huge wedding photo. Her mother's usual smile seemed to reappear right before her eyes. Unknowingly, her tears had started to flow uncontrollably.
"Big sister Yun Qing, don't cry. I won't be happy if you cry." Summer couldn't resist saying.
However, his words had no effect on her and instead made her cry even louder. She threw herself into Summer's embrace and started to cry.
She cried for more than ten minutes before she gradually stopped.
"Uncle Shi, thank you for telling me these things." After crying for a while, Yun Qing seemed to have calmed down again. She left the embrace of summer, wiped the tears off her face, and said to Shi Chang Geng in a soft voice.
"Xiao Qing, this is my responsibility." "Although you are not my daughter, I have always treated you as my daughter. I also hope that you can treat me as your family in the future. No matter what happens, you can always come and find me. Here is where your mother lives."
