Chapter 79
"Mom--" Zhong Yu looked at her mother's face, her nose became even more sore, and tears immediately filled her eyes.
"Don't cry, Zhong Yu..." Cai Nong smiled faintly. She wanted to raise her hand to wipe away the tears for Zhong Yu, and Zhong Yu grabbed her hand.
"Mom, don't move." Zhong Yu knew that it was very difficult for her mother to move: "How do you feel? Are you particularly uncomfortable..."
Thinking that his mother was enduring pain now, Zhong Yu's heart was as if he was slashed.
Cai Nong just shook her head slightly, and she felt very relieved: "It doesn't hurt, mom doesn't hurt at all..."
"Qin Lang, will you take good care of Zhong Yu in the future?" Cai Nong's eyes slowly turned to Qin Lang again. From the first day when she saw Qin Lang, she felt Qin Lang's deep feelings for Zhong Yu.
"Mom..." Zhong Yu heard a hint of last words.
"Yes, aunt, I will take good care of Zhong Yu." Qin Lang looked at Cai Nong's eyes and said seriously.
"Okay, okay..." Cai Nong nodded slightly with satisfaction. In an instant, she felt that the burden on her body was much lighter. In her heart, Qin Lang was no longer an outsider.
"Zhong Yu, I want to tell you something now." Cai Nong looked at Zhong Yu, and the expression in her eyes was already a little dim.
Zhong Yu held Cai Nong's hand tightly in his hand, and his tears were filled with tenderness.
"Actually... I'm not your biological mother." Cai Nong looked at Zhong Yu's gaze and said it gently, this secret that had been stored in her heart for 20 years.
Hearing Cai Nong's words, Zhong Yu was stunned, in sadness, couldn't help but be slightly stunned: "Mom..."
"I originally planned to hide this secret for the rest of my life. I think this is a deception to you. This is what you should know..." Tears slowly condensed in Cai Nong's old eyes.
"No...mom..." Zhong Yu murmured in a daze.
Since she has memories, she has lived with Cai Nong. At this time, Cai Nong suddenly said that she is not Zhong Yu's biological mother, how could Zhong Yu accept it?
Qin Lang, who was standing beside him, was also shocked when he heard Cai Nong's words. He subconsciously compared the appearance of Zhong Yu and Cai Nong and found that the two did not look very similar.
"Silly child, why are you as kind as your mother? It's not good to do this..." Looking at Zhong Yu's delicate appearance, Cai Nong seemed to see Zhong Yu's mother's appearance, which touched Cai Nong's feelings, and tears in her eyes suddenly slid down.
"No, mom, you are my mother..." When Zhong Yu heard Cai Nong repeatedly propose her biological mother, she was anxious. She looked at Cai Nong and said stubbornly.
"Good child, I don't deserve to be your mother. Your mother is a dignified and elegant lady, and I am just a little maid next to her..." Cai Nong said softly.
Zhong Yu kept shaking her head slowly.
"When the lady gave birth to you, she was found by her family, she was placed under house arrest by her family. She was not allowed to go out. In order to prevent the lady from escaping, they even forced the lady to inject a toxin with me. Only by constantly taking the medicine they gave could she survive. Today, my condition is that kind of toxin attack. Do you still remember when I was in my hometown before, I would go up the mountain to collect herbs every day? Those medicines were to relieve the condition. I didn't expect that what should come came still..."
"Mom, stop talking..." Zhong Yu's subconscious mind began to accept the reality that Cai Nong was not her mother.
"Let me finish speaking, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to say it again..." Cai Nong said softly: "I used to live a normal life, and the lady just wanted to raise you safely, but who knew that I accidentally heard the news that my family actually found an opportunity to kill you. At that time, you were still a baby under one month old..."
"I immediately told the lady the news. The lady was extremely disappointed with her family. She knew that if you stay at home, the family would definitely have a chance to do it. So that night, the lady and I took you with you, knocked out the person who was watching over us, and ran out of the house secretly..."
"Although we were very careful, we were still discovered by our family. We were eventually forced to a cliff. They drove around us in a car. At that time, the lady wanted to go back with them first and wait for an opportunity to escape. Who would have thought that the person in charge actually had murderous intentions at the lady. The lady realized that something was wrong, but it was too late. The other person had already pointed the gun at us..."
"Ah..." Zhong Yu couldn't help but let out a soft voice, and Qin Lang's eyes also jumped.
"The other party had already smiled like victory. At this moment, the lady was holding me suddenly and jumped down from the cliff when they pulled the machine. In the falling air, I was extremely scared. Apart from the howling wind, I suddenly heard the lady say to me: 'Xiao Cai, the child will ask you in the future'. Before I could react, I opened my eyes and saw the lady show a sad smile to me. Then, she turned her body and turned her to me. When I realized the lady's intention, it had already landed..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry Miss..." Cai Nong started crying. Zhong Yu was lost for a moment, and seemed to have seen the miserable scene.
"Cough cough" Cai Nong coughed violently.
"Mom, put it on..." Zhong Yu came to his senses and wanted to put an oxygen mask on Cai Nong.
"Let me finish..." Cai Nong turned his face slightly. She knew very well about her physical condition. It didn't matter whether she would wear it or not.
"Miss..." Cai Nong couldn't help but whimper: "I was injured too, it's not very serious. You still looked at me naively and didn't understand what was going on. I vaguely heard the person above say that he wanted to come down to search for us, and didn't dare to stay in that place, so he hugged you and left..."
Afterwards, after a few days of escape, Cai Nong came to a small mountain village in the northeast with Zhong Yu in his arms, and began a new life from then on.
"Mom..." Zhong Yu always wanted to put an oxygen hood on Cai Nong, but Cai Nong never allowed it.
"Zhong Yu, take off the phoenix jade pendant I wore..."
Zhong Yu slowly took off the phoenix-shaped jade pendant on Cai Nong's neck, and saw that the jade pendant was green and clear. On the phoenix tail, the color changed from green to crystal white, and the tail end was mixed with a few traces of red, which looked quite extraordinary.
Since her experience, Cai Nong has been wearing it. Zhong Yu has always had questions about how could such a poor family have this noble jade pendant? She also asked Cai Nong, who only said it was inherited from the ancestors, so I won’t say much about anything else.
"This jade pendant is the lady's personal belonging. I think you should wear it, which is the most suitable one." Cai Nong said slowly, her breath was getting weaker and weaker.
"Qin Lang" Cai Nong looked at Qin Lang with difficulty.
"Yes," Qin Lang solemnly agreed.
"Over the years, Zhong Yu has suffered a lot with me. She is as weak and kind as her mother. Without me, I am afraid that she will be bullied by others. Since Zhong Yu has chosen you, I hope you can treat her well and not let her be hurt again and protect her for the rest of her life, okay?" Cai Nong said weakly with a hint of mouth. Her eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, and it seems that she is trying hard not to close her eyelids.
Her thoughts support her to listen to Qin Lang's answer.
"Okay, as long as I, Qin Lang, are there in the future, even if I am covered in bruises, I promise that Zhong Yu will not be hurt at all. Don't worry," Qin Lang said solemnly.
"Okay, I'm relieved." A smile appeared on Cai Nong's face. She no longer had the strength to mobilize the muscles on her face, and her breathing became like a gossip.
"Stop talking, be obedient, put on the oxygen mask." Zhong Yu was afraid that Cai Nong would waste a little more effort.
"Okay, okay, I miss Miss very much, really, I miss her so much..." Cai Nong's eyes slowly closed.
"You have a good rest first..." Zhong Yu picked up the oxygen hood and just pulled it to Cai Nong's nose. From the corner of her eyes, she saw Cai Nong's hand slid down like fallen leaves, gently touching her body, but Zhong Yu felt like she was hit by a giant hammer.
Zhong Yu looked at Cai Nong with her eyes closed, and a huge feeling of emptyness surged in her heart. She used all her strength before her lips trembled and said two words.
"Mother……"
She asked tremblingly, wishing Cai Nong could respond to her as usual, even if she was a gentle noon, but Cai Nong was lying quietly on the hospital bed without moving, and there was no trace of anger on her face.
"Mom----" Zhong Yu's subconscious finally realized what was going on, and a sad cry came from Zhong Yu's mouth.
She hugged Cai Nong's body, pressed her head on Cai Nong's body, and started crying bitterly. At this time, famous doctors from various hospitals in East China also arrived and were stopped by Shen Wanqian. They were useless.
Scenes of getting along with my mother from childhood to adulthood flashed through Zhong Yu's mind.
Zhong Yu closed her eyes, and teardrops as big as beans squeezed out from the gaps of her eyes, her face covered with tears and her nose also flowed out. Zhong Yu didn't care at all. She only knew that a woman who loved her the most, knew her the most, and was worried about the most, and she was closest to her forever, and she became a memory from then on, and she became an orphan.
5 minutes,
10 minutes,
Half an hour,
One hour,
Zhong Yu kept crying, her mother's voice, appearance and smile were still yesterday, but now she has passed away suddenly, and Zhong Yu can't help but cannot help herself.
Qin Lang stood quietly beside Zhong Yu, listening to Zhong Yu's heartbreaking cry in the ward. His heart felt like a knife was cut, but he knew that no one could help Zhong Yu needed to vent now.
