As Lumi pushed open the door, his father turned his head. Lumi and his father faced each other and looked at each other.
Rumi's mind was in a war of emotions, and memories gushed out.
The last time Lumi saw his father was his body.
That year, Lumi, who had returned from his hometown, often kept in touch with his father. In May of the following year, Lumi couldn't get through to his father's phone for two days in a row. He was anxious and hurriedly contacted his brother Lu Xiaolong. He handed his daughter to his mother, and Zhang Ke drove thousands of miles back to his hometown.
The three of them came to their father's door and opened it from the outside with the key. The sound of the television program came from the bedroom.
He called out to his father as he hurried toward the bedroom, which was dimly lit, and Lumi knew that his father had never been willing to use high-wattage light bulbs.
The younger brother went into the bedroom first and turned to shake his head at Lumi.
Lumi looked at the bathroom again, but he didn't see anyone.
He then looked at the other bedroom, which was filled with junk.
Zhang Ke stood at the kitchen door and stared blankly at the kitchen.
Lumi quickly pushed Zhang Ke away and saw an unforgettable scene: His father lay stiffly on the kitchen floor with his hands flat in front of his chest. The blood around his head had dried up.
Lumi saw the chopped cabbage on the chopping board of the stove. It was already a little dried, and the edges were grayish-black. The rice pot was soaked with washed white rice, and there was a raw chicken drumstick on the rice that had not been cooked yet...
Lumi analyzed and guessed more than once that his father was going to the kitchen to press the switch of the rice cooker. Or do you want to stir-fry first? Did she trip over the wires on the ground? Or was it a sudden fainting due to ketoacidosis? Did he struggle? Or would he quietly wait for death to arrive?
No one could guess the situation at that time. No one could know what his father was thinking when he closed his eyes. Was it relief? Or was he unwilling? Or regret?
The final verdict of death was that he had died of cerebral hemorrhage." The old man didn't suffer. There's no expression of pain on his face. He's very peaceful…"
To hell with serenity. Who wouldn't feel pain when they fell? Who wouldn't feel despair when they couldn't call for help? He could only wait for death alone…
As long as he thought of not having a father anymore, whether he hated him, resented him, or hated him, he would never see him again, and no one would answer when he called him father. Lumi's tears flowed uncontrollably and endlessly.
In the three days that he had spent preparing for his father's funeral, Lumi seemed to have shed all his tears. His eyes were dry and slippery after a long time.
"Lu Xiaomi, what are you daydreaming about?”
His father's voice sounded.
Lumi looked at his father's face. His skin was not loose, his eyes were still bright.
Although Lumi tried his best to control his emotions, tears still flowed uncontrollably.
"My father, I can finally see you again. This time, it's not in a dream.”Lumi roared in his heart. She walked towards her father uncontrollably and hugged him tightly.
Lu Fengjun was also shocked. In his memory, he had never felt intimate with his children. For a moment, he did not know how to deal with it.
"What's wrong, young lady? Did your mother scold you?"”
After a few seconds, Lumi let go, wiped his tears, and said calmly,"I had a dream just now. I dreamed that you were dead!”
Lu Fengjun looked at his daughter and was stunned. Then, he smiled and said,"Isn't it good that I'm dead? Aren't you all annoyed with me? Haha!"
"You're not allowed to say such things. You have to live, live well! You can't get sick or die!" Lumi was really anxious. She hadn't figured out the sudden transmigration, and now her father had mentioned life and death. She really couldn't accept it for a moment.
"Silly, it seems that I still have to live. Yes, I can't die. You and Xiaolong still have to go to university. I have to earn money!”Then, she turned around and went to the bathroom to wash her hands.
"Lumi, come get some rice and call your brother to eat.”His mother shouted from the kitchen.
Lumi went to the kitchen to help with the dishes. After Lumi's brainless crying, the family of four sat at the dining table. They were not uncomfortable or in a state of hostility. Everyone ate quietly and peacefully.
Lumi really didn't want to experience the depressing family atmosphere of his previous life again. Could he change it? What should have happened had already happened. Could the things that had not happened be completely changed?
Rumi looked at the dishes on the table. There were stir-fried turnips and braised potatoes. Yes, there were only potatoes and no meat.
"Mom, why is there no meat here? My dad works so hard all day, and Xiaolong's studies aren't easy either. How can eating grass be nutritious?”
Hearing Lumi's words, everyone looked up and looked at Lumi in unison.
"You wretched girl, you're already acting weird early in the morning. What are you rushing for? In the middle of winter, wasn't it just cabbage and potatoes? Look at your score, you still have the cheek to ask for meat!”
His mother couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Hey, look at you. The child is craving meat. Go buy some tomorrow. What are you saying?”The father was in a rare good mood. He first spoke up for Lumi, then turned to his daughter and said,"Today is New Year's Day, so I won't be going out in the afternoon. Your mom said that she'll make dumplings tonight.”
His younger brother, Lu Xiaolong, was as silent as ever.
Lumi continued,"I love to eat braised pork, fried meat, stewed or fried.”
"You still have the cheek to say that you don't dislike it? I'll cook meat for you every day when you improve your grades.”His mother pursed her lips in disdain.
"Okay, Dad, Xiaolong, you both heard it. Be my witness. I'll forget about this semester. After the winter vacation, I'll get you into the top ten next year!”Lumi said quickly.
His mother wanted to say something, but his father stopped her."Alright, my lady is ambitious. There's not much time left. Why don't you get into high school and go to university?”
Perhaps it was because Lumi's behavior was too abnormal when he first came back, but then his performance at the dinner table was cheerful and lively, unlike the previous lifeless atmosphere. Lu Fengjun was infected by good mood, and his tone became easygoing.
Lumi deeply felt that a good family atmosphere would spread. He couldn't do it alone. He had to bring the whole family together. Not to mention striving to be a good family, at least not walking the old path of his previous life.
Lumi never wanted to experience that pain again.
In this life, his mother was not old, his father was not dead, and everyone was still healthy. Lumi could not help but sigh. I'm so lucky!
He just needed time to figure it out. First, he had to think of a way to earn some money quietly. He had to raise his financial conditions first. It would be easier to accept it if he started small and then grew big.
He had to earn money and study at the same time. He had to improve his grades during this winter vacation. He could not fail the middle school examination again.
Oh right, I still have to find time to talk to my parents and clear up the grievances in my heart. Rome wasn't built in a day. The road to success is long and dangerous!
Rumi had completely adapted to his new identity. Although he felt pressured, he was full of confidence. After nearly 60 years in his previous life and this life, nothing could be difficult for him!
