    In the King City of Xiandu, it was the night of New Year's Eve. There was heavy snowfall in the sky. The heavy snow coated the entire Xianyu City with a layer of white. The thousands of lights in the city seemed to melt the entire snow, making people anxious for this cold winter.  The snowy night adds a touch of warmth, and the lights inside the palace in the inner city are as bright as daytime. At this time, every household in the capital is happily preparing to celebrate the New Year, but on such a snowy New Year's night,  In a civilian area in the outer city of a majestic city, a civilian courtyard is different from other homes.

    "Honey, hurry up, hurry up, go ask the midwife, Xiaoyun is about to give birth." As a kind old man stuttered and became anxious, another voice that sounded like her good companion came back: "Hey, what a sin."  Immediately, footsteps sounded, and the person had already arrived outside the hospital, looking very anxious.

    As the old man left, there were bursts of painful groans in the house, as if he was enduring the pain but was helpless.

    In the inner room, a young and beautiful woman was lying on the bed. If it weren't for the unbearable pain that made her face covered with sweat and distortion, then this woman would definitely be considered as beautiful as a flower.  This girl's name is Hua Xiaoyun, and she is the only daughter of the two old people.

    The old man next to Hua Xiaoyun is her mother. The old man's face is even more anxious because of his daughter's pain. The old man can only use his previous experience of giving birth to children to comfort Xiaoyun, but the old man knows that if this child is born, then  The originally stable life will not be peaceful even now.

    "Being unmarried and having children is despised in the Immortal Capital Kingdom, especially in this royal city.

    It has been an hour. In the inner room, Xiaoyun's painful moans became louder and louder, but his wife had not called the midwife yet. The old man paced back and forth in the room, and finally seemed to have made up his mind. Xiaoyun's mother  I had no choice but to prepare everything, and sighed helplessly: "Hey, girl, why are you doing this?" Then he walked over and started delivering Xiaoyun.

    Half an hour later, when Xiaoyun¡¯s father and midwife arrived at the entrance of the hospital, a baby¡¯s cry resounded throughout the neighborhood.  Our protagonist is finally born

    In the house, Xiaoyun's mother held the child in her arms and said to her husband with a smile: "After all, it's her own baby. You name it." The old man sitting there was lowering his head and thinking about something. Hearing Xiaoyun's wife's words, he couldn't help but raise his head.  She looked at the child and then at Xiaoyun who was lying weakly on the bed and replied in a gentle tone: "Girl, you better get up on your own. This child is destined to suffer in the future." Xiaoyun, who had just given birth to a child,  He raised his head, heard his father's words, moved his body, sat up, and said: "Mom, let me see the child." Xiaoyun's parents were shocked when they saw Xiaoyun sitting up, and hurriedly ran over to support him.  Xiaoyun, Xiaoyun's mother put the child in Xiaoyun's arms. Xiaoyun looked at the sleeping child, and then looked out the window. At this time, the buds of the plum trees outside the courtyard actually opened in the heavy snow, and she smiled.  Xiaoyun said: "You can't have a bone-chilling cold to get the fragrance of plum blossoms. No matter how windy, frosty, rainy or snowy you are in the future, my child, you should bloom like plum blossoms in the severe cold. My mother will always be by your side."

    As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant from behind the pillow, hung it on the child's chest, and continued: "The plum blossom blooms proudly on the winter night, vowing to cover the cold snow with plum fragrance. Even though it only lasts for a moment. Then let's call it Hua Xiang."

    The two elders next to them shook their heads and sighed when they heard their daughter's words.  For some reason, when the jade pendant was hung on Hua Xiang's chest, a wisp of green gas slowly flowed into Xiao Hua Xiang's entire body, and Xiao Hua Xiang suddenly slept more soundly.

    A few months later, despite Xiaoyun¡¯s father trying to hide it, the noise that night alarmed many neighbors.  As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. The fact that the Hua family's daughter gave birth to a child before she got married was known to everyone. There were even neighbors who had good things to say came to the door together and asked the Hua family to move out. Some even wanted to drag Xiaoyun and Huan away.  The infant Hua Xiang soaked the pig cage and drowned the two of them alive in the moat. In the end, the two elders knelt on the ground and begged. The two elders of the Hua family were also well-known good people in the neighborhood. Everyone couldn't bear it, so they finally  I was able to give up, but despite this, life in the Hua family is not as peaceful as before. When I go out, someone will make irresponsible remarks and look at me differently. Even when I go to buy vegetables, some people are reluctant to sell them. Some people simply refuse to sell them.  The excuse for not selling to the Hua family is that it has been sold out.

    The life that had been relatively prosperous before began to become barren. In addition, Xiaoyun gave birth to a child on a snowy night and got cold. On that day, she saw her parents kneeling in front of everyone for themselves and their children. She felt guilty and depressed, and her condition became worse and worse.  It was heavy, but I managed to hold on for the sake of my child.

    Two years later, in the courtyard of the Hua family, a half-year-old boy was carrying a bucket bigger than himself, struggling to shake the well rope, trying to get water out of the well. After asking for it for almost a moment, he finally shook it in a circle.  But I don't know what happened. The child suddenly seemed to have lost his strength. The rope suddenly turned back again, and then knocked the little boy to the ground. Inside the house, a pale woman heard the movement outsideHe walked out leaning against the door wall, saw the boy who fell on the ground and said anxiously: "Xiang'er, did you fall? Why is this child so disobedient? I asked you not to go to fetch water, but you still go." The tone.  But there is no hint of blame in it. The little boy fetching water is Hua Xiang.

    When Hua Xiang on the ground saw her mother coming out, she wiped her face and ignored the pain of falling. She got up, staggered to Xiaoyun, and said in a childish voice: "Mother, mother, you  Why is it out? Xiang'er needs to get water for her mother to wash her face. Her grandparents are not in good health. Xiang'er has to help her grandparents take care of her mother." Hearing Xiao Huaxiang's answer, Xiaoyun smiled and shook his head and said: "  When Xiang'er grows up and becomes a man, he can help take care of his mother. Come inside, it's cold outside. "Xiao Hua Xiang" said "Yes" and gestured with both hands to help Xiao Yun walk into the house. You can vaguely hear Xiao Hua Xiang.  A childish voice: "Why didn't mother ask father to come back and take care of mother and grandparents? Xiang'er really wants to see her father." Xiaoyun just remained silent.

    Hua Xiang has been an obedient child since she was a child, and her body is not as strong as a tough guy. Even though she is only two years old, she is still very sensible and helps the family. The two elders in the family also love Hua Xiang very much. Even the neighbors also love her because of it.  Hua Xiang's sensible and lovable personality no longer treated the Hua family so coldly, which made the Hua family's life easier.

    As time went by, the health of the two elders became worse and worse. When Hua Xiang was eight years old, they died one after another. Only Hua Xiang and her mother Xiaoyun were left in the family. Xiaoyun's health has deteriorated since that time.  Things didn't get better, so eight-year-old Hua Xiang decided to support the whole family.

    Every morning Hua Xiang gets up early and runs to the mountains to cut firewood and sell it to the big households in the city. At noon, she goes to herd cattle. At night, when she is really tired, Hua Xiang still has to chat with her mother. Every time Xiao Yun habitually  When she calls Hua Xiang "Xiang'er", Hua Xiang will always say seriously: "Mom, I can't call you Xiang'er anymore. I want to be a manly man. Xiang'er will be my daughter's name when I hear it."  Xiaoyun smiled and said nothing at his son's words. Xiaoyun taught Huaxiang to read and write since he was very young, so Huaxiang developed a habit of never leaving the book no matter what he did. The neighbors all laughed at Huaxiang's family as a little scholar.  After finishing reading her own books, Hua Xiang would go to the academy and secretly listen in. She was caught several times and was ridiculed and sometimes bullied by others, but Hua Xiang always laughed it off.  There is always a look different from age in those slightly childish eyes.

    Hua Xiang returned home with bruises all over his body, but the strange thing is that Hua Xiang¡¯s injuries healed in just one night, without even scars.  Xiao Huaxiang never cried to her mother because of these things. Seeing Xiaoyun like this, her heart was filled with happiness and sadness.  Fortunately, Xiao Huaxiang is so sensible and lovable, but what is sad is that Xiaoyun knows that her condition is getting more and more serious. The money that Xiao Huaxiang earns every day and the belongings left by her parents are barely enough for herself.  Mother and son eat and drink, let alone buy those expensive medicinal materials. Knowing that her time is short, Xiaoyun will try her best to pass on what she has learned to Xiao Huaxiang every day. Mother and son stay together tenderly every day to try their best.  His last duty as a mother paved the way for him in the future.

    What Hua Xiang is most curious about is who her father is. When she asks her about her mother, Xiaoyun always smiles and says nothing, with a happy smile on her beautiful face, as if she is remembering something.  Whenever this happens, Hua Xiang will exclaim: "Mother is the most beautiful girl in the world. When I grow up, I want to marry a girl as beautiful as my mother." Whenever she hears these words from her son, Xiaoyun always  He would answer: "Well, Xiang'er must be a man of uprightness when he grows up, and he will definitely marry a girl as beautiful as my mother."

    When Hua Xiang was twelve years old, Xiao Yun finally couldn't withstand the ravages of the disease and vomited blood and fell on the bed. Hua Xiang hugged her mother and burst into tears. At the moment of her death, Xiao Yun only said one sentence to Hua Xiang.  : "Proudly** I swear to bloom in the winter night, the fragrance of plum blossoms will be covered with snow and cold. Even though my body is dead, my love is still there. I will never regret it for the rest of my life. I will never regret it for the rest of my life. I must live well, mother, I'm sorry for you."  , passed away from this world. And Xiao Huaxiang finally knew the last line of her mother's favorite poem.

    When she passed away, the girl still had that happy smile, as if she didn¡¯t regret her original choice even in the underworld.
