After the death of my father, the family owed a lot of debt, in order to reduce the burden of my mother, I said to my mother, Mom, I don't read the university, my hand clutched the university admission notice, my hand was full of sweat.
Standing in the sun's mother is still so firm and persistent, she did not wait for me to finish and answer me, no, people are not on the university exam, you are on the exam, if you can not afford, I am sorry for you, and sorry for your father.
She told me to stay at home while she took care of my father's chores.
The next morning, while I was asleep, she woke me up from bed and told me that I was saved, the insurance company had paid a large sum of money, and now, not only can you pay the debt, but also enough for your school tuition, I put the money in a passbook for emergency.
I also suddenly excited, jumping out of bed and cheering.
In college, in order to be worthy of my mother and father, I studied hard and began to write in my spare time. After half a year, I had several articles sporadically published in several magazines.
I will tell the news to my mother, mother said congratulations to me, let me be sure to study hard, life is nervous to say to the home, bankbook money.
My mother sent me monthly living expenses, never stop, slowly, I also developed the school of comparison, especially I met a girl, the girl's family is very good, and know the book and ceremony, is my dream idol, naturally, there is no money spending.
I said to my mother want to newspaper internship class, need a large amount of money, my mother told me on the phone in two days to mail me, after the money arrived, I was overjoyed, I told the girl that my family is very good, there is money in the family, parents are also very generous, what you need just say it, next, I began to desperately please her.
In the second half of the freshman year, the school is popular to buy a computer, many people have a computer of their own, they swim on the Internet every night, living a smart life.
In order to make up for the lack of psychology, I told my mother about this, and my mother asked me if I had to buy it? I said yes, this is for learning, the mother hesitated for a long time to tell me, you can, but it takes half a month to take out the money, I just saved a regular, now take it is not good.
Half a month later, I successfully bought a computer, at that moment, I was ecstatic, I invited all the personnel in the dormitory to go outside to drink, and that night drank drunk, and then hid in the tavern inside singing karaoke all night.
That day, I met an aunt of my family, she came to the city to visit the son who is working here, because the road is unfamiliar, just to find someone to inquire, but met me, in order to give my mother's face gold, I generously invited her to dinner, and took her to his bedroom, and then open the computer to let her see the various patterns on the face, looking at her face very surprised expression, I was very excited.
She asked me, your school management is really advanced, with computers.
I said no, I bought it, her face turned cloudy immediately, bought it myself, where did you get the money?
I hastened to explain that it was from my mother, and in order to reassure her, I also told her that it was the money that had been lost after my father's death, and that it was in a passbook.
Aunt after listening to my words, tears actually fell down, you fool, that is your mother cheated you, your father did not enter the insurance, how can the insurance company compensate you? Your mother lied to you so you could go to school.
Her words were so thunderous that I could not believe it was true, and after a long struggle I reluctantly sent her away.
That night, I lay in bed tossing and turning, the past vividly, I suddenly understood the mother's difficulties, in order to make his son no burden to go to school, the mother woven a beautiful lie, but the son stupid, he did not understand the mother's hardships.
Thinking about it, I really want to call my mother quickly, apologize to her, and tell her that I did not mean to ask her to understand.
Then another thought froze in my mind, and I made up my mind and began another journey.
In order to earn more money, I worked two part-time jobs at the same time. In this way, I could earn an income of about 800 yuan per month in my spare time. In addition to the monthly expenses of 200 yuan, another 600 yuan of income came into my account. And signed his mother's name on it.
I sold my computer, and when I needed to write, I would do it on the school computer, and I could collect the money just by buying a floppy disk.
I quit my girlfriend, and told her the real situation of my family, she cried and ran away, saying that I wasted her youth, originally, she appreciated not my people, but my chic, now, once the natural exit from the lake, she also chose to leave. In this way, I have a large amount of expenses.
I told my mother on the phone: I participated in the school organization of tutoring, and won the school scholarship, do not send money in the future, you spend the money in the passbook, now the son can live on his own!
Mother said on the phone: go outside to earn money, but don't waste your studies, and pay attention to your health.
Winter vacation home, the mother is much older, her hands white, I know she has been washing clothes for people to make money, for this family, she paid too much, at that time, I really want to jump into the mother's arms to cry, tell her not to be busy, after the son to feed you, but later, I still control the feelings, I think, I graduated from college that year, I will use a gift to return the mother.
In a flash of an eye, four years have passed, I returned home, although I am alone, did not find a daughter-in-law for her old family back, but my heart is very calm.
Back home, my mother to meet me under the old locust tree, I told her, I have found a good job in the county, work in the county government, close to home, my mother said how do you not go to the city, the city wages are higher.
I helped my mother enter the door, took out a passbook of the agricultural Bank from my arms to her, I said, Mom, this is the money that my son has saved for you for several years, you accept it, mom, you suffer, you don't have to hide from me anymore, everything I know.
Mother took the money, shook her head and told me: no, mom did not lie to you, there is a passbook, and said that, she shivered slightly into the back room, not long took out a passbook of the agricultural bank to me, which apparently wrote my name.
Later, I learned that in order to let me study at ease, my mother went to work in the field during the day, and washed clothes for others at night, and all the money she earned was deposited in the passbook.
Looking at the mother's white hair flying in the wind, I suddenly understood that in order to round the dream built in the son's heart, a mother, with several years of hard work and hardship, woven a most beautiful lie in the world.
Two bank passbooks overlap together, especially dazzling in the sun, I supported the elderly mother, walking in the sun, walking in the autumn wind.
