"The Story of Tears" Hu Ping Reading Comprehension Answers

The story of tears

Hu Ping

My wife Aizhen died in winter. She suffered from leukemia and only survived a short period of time in the hospital. Three weeks.

I sent her home to spend the last New Year's Day. She tidied up the house, sorted out clothes, showed me where the securities and ID cards were kept, and took away all her photos. Later, she took the bracelet in her hand and was about to break up with her daughter. Wenwen, who was one and a half years old, looked up at her mother in surprise and asked: "Mom, where are you going?"

"I My sweetheart, my baby." Aizhen knelt on the ground and hugged her daughter, "Kiss mom again, mom is going abroad."

Their mother and daughter were cheek to cheek, Aizhen's. Two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks.

As soon as he got into the taxi, his wife burst into tears and crawled and slid on the car seat. While I told the driver to drive, I held her tightly in my arms, calling her name, waiting for her to wake up from despair. But I know in my heart that no woman can actually be stronger than her.

More than twenty days after my wife passed away, her first letter home was sent from "overseas". There was a stamp on the envelope, no postmark, only the date on the back. I opened the letter according to this date and read it to our Wenwen:

Dear baby, my little Wenwen: Do you miss your mother? My mother also misses Wenwen. She thinks about it every day. She is writing letters to Wenwen from abroad and it will take a long time before she can return home. Did Wenwen listen to her father while I was away? Did you listen to your aunt?

The last sentence is: "Mom hugs Wenwen."

These letters are neatly wrapped in a perfume handkerchief, 17 of them. We receive one of these every few weeks. In the letter, Aizhen explained how we should change clothes according to the seasons, where to change gas, and how to supplement nutrition according to the growth of our children, etc. Reading them, my eyes always get wet.

When a child misses her mother badly, Aizhen's gentle tone can often make Wenwen sit quietly for half an hour. Gradually, I had the same hallucination as a child, feeling that my wife was really far away in Japan, and I got used to waiting for letters from her.

In the ninth letter, Aizhen advised me to consider finding a new mother for Wenwen, someone who can replace her. "You get married again. I will still be your wife," she wrote.

A year later, someone introduced me to my current wife, Yali. She is divorced and has similarities to Aizhen in temperament and appearance. The difference is that she has never given birth and has no experience with children. I like her innocence and liveliness. Only this kind of character can dilute the shadow that hangs in my heart. I talked to her about Wenwen's situation and her mother's last wish.

"I want to give it a try." Yali replied easily, "Take me to see her and see if she likes me."

But I had doubts. Think carefully.

At the end of April, I read Wenwen the last letter written by her mother. When I took out this letter, it had been 6 months since the last one.

Dear little darling:

I have good news for you: Mom’s studies are over and she is about to return to China. I can see your dad and my baby again. ! Are you happy? After such a long time, Wenwen is almost unrecognizable to her mother, right? Can you still recognize your mother?

......

I paid attention to Wenwen's expression. What made me uneasy was that she was still concentrating on bathing the bear, as if she hadn't heard anything.

I hesitate to speak. Suddenly I remembered that Wenwen was almost three years old, and she gradually became sensible.

On a sunny Sunday, I accompanied Yali to my home.

"Wenwen," I could feel the trembling in my voice at this moment, "Why don't you see if your mother is back?"

Wenwen stared at Yali blankly, Still hesitating.

Thank God, Yali put down her suitcase, quickly walked to the bedside, and hugged Wenwen: "Good boy, don't you recognize me?"

The expression on Wenwen's face changed rapidly, from shock to fear. I watched this scene nervously. Then... something happened that we didn't expect. The child dropped the pictorial and burst into tears, her face red from crying. She beat Yali's shoulders desperately with her little hands, and finally shouted: "Why did it take you so long to come back!"

Yali held her in her arms, the child's arms tightly wrapped around her neck, and her whole body almost convulsed. Yali looked at me, her eyes immediately filled with tears.

All this was arranged for us by the child’s mother while struggling in the hospital bed a year and a half ago.

4. "I paid attention to Wenwen's expression. What made me uneasy was that she was still concentrating on bathing the bear, as if she hadn't heard anything.

I hesitated. Suddenly I remembered that Wenwen was almost three years old and she was gradually becoming more sensible. "It can be seen that "I" was worried that the increasingly sensible child would recognize that Yali was not her mother. Moreover, "She is divorced, and her temperament and appearance are similar to Aizhen's. The difference is that she has never given birth and has no experience with children." "I" was afraid that she would let Wenwen see the clues, For the same reason, "She is divorced, and her temperament and appearance are similar to Aizhen's", which gave Yali enough confidence to make Wenwen unrecognizable.

5. It’s Aizhen. Comfort your loved ones and prevent them from falling into pain; write a letter to create a beautiful lie; encourage your husband to rebuild a family and bring a new dawn to his loved ones.
