38 -38 Mom, When Are You Coming Back?
“…Yes, it’s Mommy.” Lin Xinlan tried to make her voice sound normal, very cheerful.
She asked with a smile, “Baby, are you home alone?”
“Mmm, Grandma went to sell vegetables.
She told me to stay at home and not go out,” Xiaocong said seriously, his tone revealing a precocity that didn’t match his four years of age.
“Grandma went to sell vegetables?
Is there no more money at home?” Lin Xinlan asked hurriedly.
She had already told her mother not to sell vegetables anymore, that she would make money to support the family.
Mom hadn’t sold vegetables for a long time, so why suddenly now?
Xiaocong fell silent for a moment, then couldn’t help but say, “Mommy, Grandma got sick the other day, and we went to the hospital and stayed for many days.
Grandma said not to tell you.
I’m telling you in secret, okay?
Don’t let Grandma find out.”
Lin Xinlan clenched her phone, her heart feeling anything but comfortable.
Her mother’s high blood pressure must have acted up again, she must have forgotten to take her medication!
Thinking about her mother falling ill and only Xiaocong being by her side, Lin Xinlan felt an acute pain in her heart and thought of herself as an unfilial daughter.
Her mother had suffered a lot for her, and now that she had grown up, not only had she failed to properly honor her and take care of her, but she had also left Xiaocong in her care, adding to her burdens.
Lin Xinlan felt that, in this world, the person she owed the most was her mother.
She also felt very sorry for Xiaocong.
Xiaocong needed her so much, yet she was always not there for him…
The more she thought, the more her heart ached, and the more tears flowed.
“Mommy, what’s wrong?” Having not heard her voice for a long time, Xiaocong asked worriedly.
Lin Xinlan quickly said with a laugh, “Mommy is fine.
Xiaocong, if Grandma comes back, tell her Mommy called home, and tell her that Mommy is doing very well and that she shouldn’t worry, okay?”
“Mmm, I remember.” Xiaocong was always very sensible, which made Lin Xinlan’s heart ache even more.
Her child was only four years old.
At this age, he should be in her arms, acting spoiled.
It was all her fault for making such a young child endure things he shouldn’t have to.
“Mommy…
when are you coming back?” Xiaocong asked tentatively.
“…Very soon, just wait a bit longer.
Once Mommy takes care of the things here, she will come back to see you and Grandma.”
“Really?” Although Lin Xinlan had told him this many times, he believed her every time and looked forward to it. freewēbnoveℓ.com
“…Really.” Lin Xinlan said, her voice choked, and she nearly couldn’t make a sound.
“Xiaocong, Grandma’s health isn’t good, so remember to remind her to take her medicine every day, okay?
If Grandma doesn’t take her medicine, she will get sick and have to go to the hospital and it will be very uncomfortable.”
“Mmm, I understand!
I don’t like the hospital, it’s noisy, it smells bad, and it’s unfamiliar.
I will remember to remind Grandma to take her medicine, every single day.”
“Good boy, Mommy loves you.”
“Mommy, I love you too.” Xiaocong immediately responded, his tone carrying a hint of a shy smile.
Lin Xinlan smiled with understanding, thinking of Xiaocong’s adorable mannerisms, she wished she could sprout wings that very moment and fly to his side.
After chatting with her child for a while, Lin Xinlan hung up.
Every time it was hard for her to hang up the phone, but each time she had to do it.
Saying too much, she didn’t know how much longer she could endure the longing, and she worried she might buy a train ticket and rush to their side right away.
However, after talking to her child, Lin Xinlan felt much better.
For her mother and child, no matter what grievances or hardships she faced, she could endure them.
“Who were you on the phone with just now?
You seemed very happy,” the deep voice of Qiao Yiyang suddenly rang out.
Lin Xinlan looked up and saw him approaching, so she quickly stood up.
