Our Lady of Salvation

Crackling, the sound of typing on the keyboard is clear and sweet, and a pair of white and beautiful hands are dancing on the keyboard quickly.Sitting in front of the computer was a long-haired beauty with black-rimmed glasses, who looked very mature and beautiful.Her big eyes hidden behind the black-rimmed glasses are curved like crescent moons, her dark pupils are as clear and moving as a pool of autumn water, her nose is straight, her lips are crystal clear and full, and her skin is fair and smooth.She pursed her lips tightly, and every time she typed a few words, she would glance at the time in the lower right corner of the computer screen.

The time quickly rushed to five o'clock in the afternoon, and the beauty with black-rimmed glasses suddenly jumped up from the chair, grabbed her bag, and quickly ran towards the main entrance of the office hall, turning her head towards a person at the next table while running. A female colleague shouted:

"Sasha, tell the boss that my part has been finished, and I have sent it to him. I will get off work first."

"Leave it to me, go quickly, don't let Dudu wait for you." The female colleague Sasha replied understandingly.

"She's already been waiting, and she's been waiting for two hours..." the beauty with black-rimmed glasses rolled her eyes in a disfigured way, and muttered to herself.

Pushing open the glass door of the office building, the old signboard of the "Didu Weekend" magazine shook twice above the head. The beauty with black-rimmed glasses glanced at the signboard, sighed and cursed: "Boss, I told you that the signboard needs to be repaired, but you He actually treated us to a month of Big Mac sandwiches for the repair fee, which made me gain six pounds!

Running through the crowded sidewalk to the nearest bus stop, just in time to catch the bus home, she jumped on the bus quickly, found a pitiful landing in the rickety and crowded bus, and waited. The sound of the station announcement.It seemed like bad luck along the way, the red light was on, and the stop and go, it took an extra 10 minutes to reach the destination.She cursed, jumped off the bus, and started to run wildly. The destination was not far away, a place full of pious and childish innocence.

Santa Maria Kindergarten, a kindergarten affiliated to the Church of Santa Maria Cathedral, is built on the west side of the cathedral. It is dedicated to accepting children of believers from nearby school districts and homeless orphans to study in the kindergarten.The church also has a direct primary school, and supports the orphans who are not adopted here until they graduate from high school.

I strode into the side entrance of the kindergarten, passed the large rubber toys and the small sandpit, and happened to meet a line of neatly lined nuns passing by. The first old nun saw her, smiled, and said gently:

"Linfei, you are here, my child." She opened her arms, like a mother swallow waiting for a baby swallow to throw herself into her arms.

"Mama Dean, I'm sorry I'm late." The beauty in black-rimmed glasses called Lin Fei hurried forward, hugged Sister Dean, and kissed her on the cheek.

"Go, Dudu is waiting for you, and Xiaoqing is playing with her." The head sister said kindly.

"Okay, may the Lord bless you, I love you, Dean's mother." Lin Fei said gratefully.

"I love you too, my child, but don't run in such a hurry." She smiled and squeezed her palm.

Lin Fei blushed, and said quickly, "Sorry, Dean's mother, I was in a hurry."

She just shook her head, tilted her head, and signaled her to go quickly.Lin Fei smiled, turned around and walked quickly towards the small building of the kindergarten.Across the shady lawn, a small figure was sitting on the short steps at the entrance of the small building.She was wearing a cute dress and a small sun hat on her head. On her fair and pink face, a pair of big watery eyes were looking up into the distance flickeringly. Those very rare blue pupils , as clear and transparent as sapphire, after reading it, people can't help but feel that the soul has been purified.The little girl had long, thick golden hair, and her pink mouth was slightly pouty, with extremely beautiful lips.One can tell at a glance that this child will definitely be a great beauty in the future.

When she saw Lin Fei running over not far away, she couldn't help jumping up happily, shaking her little hand towards her:

"Mom! Mom!" There was a beautiful and lovely smile on her face, like a fawn that saw a doe after getting lost in the forest, jumping up and down.

Lin Fei saw her daughter from a long distance, the little arms and legs, bouncing and waving her arms, she was so cute!I really want to hug her and take a bite.In fact, she did the same. She lifted her daughter up, hugged her in her arms, took a big sip on her face, and said dotingly:

"Did Dudu obediently listen to Teacher Xiaoqing today?"

"Of course Dudu is good. Dudu has always been a good boy. Mom is not a good boy. Mom is always late!" .

Lin Fei pouted and said aggrievedly:

"Woooo, mom is wrong, mom will never be late again next time."

"I don't believe it! Mom said the same thing last time, but I'm still late this time!" Dudu's little mouth pouts higher, and tears of grievance swirl in those beautiful eyes.

"Dudu doesn't cry, it's mother who is bad, and Dudu punishes mother." Seeing Dudu's crying appearance, Lin Fei felt distressed, and hurriedly coaxed.

"Yes, it should be punished. Dudu will punish her for carrying Dudu home, and she is not allowed to wear glasses. Hehe." Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind the mother and daughter, a woman with a gentle and delicate face, dressed in The nun's costume is looking at them with a smile.

"Xiao Qing, you have come up with a good idea." Lin Fei smiled wryly.

"Okay, okay, Teacher Xiaoqing is really smart." Dudu was happy again, clapping his little hands and cheering, then turned around, raised his little face, looked at Linfei with big eyes blinking, raised his hands, Naively said: "Mom, go home with a doodle on your back, don't wear glasses!"

Lin Fei reluctantly took off her black-rimmed glasses and put them in her pocket.Then he bent down and picked up the toot.Dudu giggled on her back, very happy:

"Oh~ mom doesn't wear glasses, mom is a beautiful mom."

Children's aesthetics are the most pure. She was right. Lin Fei was already beautiful when she was wearing glasses, and she couldn't hide her beauty even more when she took off her glasses.Especially those eyes, different from her daughter's azure, as black as ink, with a lively halo, as clear as black gemstones.

Lin Fei walked out of the kindergarten with Dudu on her back, Xiao Qing followed the mother and daughter and sent them out.On the way, she laughed and teased Lin Fei:

"I always say, you are not short-sighted, why do you wear those plain glasses, it's rare that your beautiful eyes are covered. You, don't wear those ugly glasses in the future, how beautiful you are. Look, those men are still looking back at you."

"Hush, what are you talking nonsense in front of children." Lin Fei said angrily, and then said, "I wear glasses for my own reasons, it doesn't matter if I'm pretty or not."

She and Xiaoqing have been close friends from elementary school to high school. After graduating from high school, she was admitted to the Imperial Capital National University. Xiaoqing has always liked children. teacher.Although the two separated from the two schools, they were both in the imperial capital anyway, so they had been in contact for two years after they separated.Afterwards, for a long time, Xiaoqing lost contact with Linfei, and Xiaoqing never knew what happened to Linfei.She didn't see Lin Fei again until two years ago, when they met again in kindergarten because of Dudu.After their reunion, their relationship is better than ever.So, they talk quite intimately.

Xiaoqing's eyes darkened when she heard her indifferent tone.Lin Fei was the school belle in high school, the dream lover of many boys.She is also a very beautiful girl, and the money and time spent on dressing up are comparable to studying.However, now his temperament has changed drastically.Jiao Didi's princess is no longer tempered, only the appearance of a single mother who is devoted to her daughter.Lin Fei is only 26 years old this year, but she has already dressed in simple and outdated clothes, which is no longer fashionable.Dudu is five years old this year. This child was obviously born during her college years.Who is the father of this child?How can you be so irresponsible?Linfei University's major is obviously not liberal arts, she majored in bioengineering, why did she go to a magazine to be an editor?One mystery after another surrounds Xiaoqing after reuniting with Linfei. She feels that the answer to everything lies in the four years of losing contact.

"Linfei, you, can you wait for me, I'll change clothes first, let's go back together." Xiaoqing was a little preoccupied, and it was difficult to even make a proposal.

Lin Fei didn't seem to hear anything wrong in her tone, and said with a smile: "I see, hurry up, Dudu is hungry, and I have to go home and cook for her."

When Dudu heard the word "cooking", his eyes lit up immediately, and the greedy worms in his stomach popped out. He clapped his hands and said, "Hurry up, Teacher Xiaoqing! Hurry up, Teacher Xiaoqing!"

Xiaoqing doesn't have a boyfriend yet. Since she doesn't earn much at work and housing prices in the imperial capital are very expensive, she didn't move out after working, but still lived with her parents.Xiaoqing's surname is Xiao, and her single name is "Qing".Her parents were ordinary workers in the textile factory near the church. Their family was not rich, and they lived in the dilapidated staff dormitory of the factory. The three of them crowded into a small house of [-] square meters. Although their lives were not rich, they lived in a simple way. A family of three is very satisfied.When Xiaoqing and Linfei reunited, Linfei was alone with a child, and supported herself and her daughter with a meager salary from the magazine.Xiaoqing then introduced a set of cheap rented staff housing above her house to Linfei, so that the mother and daughter could settle down.Because of this, the two of them became neighbors.

On the way back, the two played with Dudu all the way, then turned into the vegetable market outside the staff dormitory area to buy some food, and then went home.When passing by the old children's park in the community, Dudu was already tired and fell asleep on Lin Fei's body.Xiaoqing pulled La Linfei's sleeve, pouted towards the swing in the park, and motioned the two of them to sit there.Looking at Xiaoqing's expectant face, Linfei's dark pupils flickered slightly, and she finally nodded and walked towards the swing.

She carefully got Dudu off her back, hugged her into her arms, and then sat on the swing.Dudu seemed to be woken up, mumbled a few words vaguely, nestled in his mother's arms, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep again.Xiaoqing was also sitting on the swing beside them, and the two of them watched the setting sun cast by the branches of the plane tree above their heads. For a while, neither of them spoke first.

In the end, Xiaoqing still spoke, her tone was a little nostalgic, and her voice became much lower:

"Linfei, do you still remember that when we were in elementary school, we always liked to come here to play on the swing after school? Haha, at that time, the swing was too big for us, but now it's a bit crowded to sit on."

"Yeah, this place really hasn't changed. It's still the same as it was in my memory when I was a child. I really miss it." Lin Fei curled her lips. The memory of her childhood made her feel happy.

"You and I have known each other for 16 years, how time flies."

"Well, it's been... 16 years." Lin Fei's eyes gradually became a little confused, and her tone began to murmur.

Listening to her tone, Xiaoqing felt a little angry. She took a deep breath, and finally her eyes became firm, and she asked, "My friend of 16 years, do you really think there is something that you can't tell me?"

"What...what's the matter?" She smiled awkwardly, but didn't intend to answer directly.

"Linfei! Don't you really think I'm your friend? Even if we meet again, it will be almost two years. In order to take care of your feelings, I never ask these questions. I know, you don't want to mention it, and neither do I. It's time to expose your scars. But now, I really can't bear it!" She was really angry, but in order not to wake up Dudu, she still said in a low voice.

"I...I don't understand what you want me to say." She still clenched her teeth and held on.

"Zhuang Linfei! Do you think I'm a fool? What have you been doing for those four years? Why didn't you contact me? How did this child, Dudu, come about? Is it your own? Or adopted? "

"It's my own! She is my own child!" She suddenly became excited, raised her head, stared into Xiaoqing's eyes and said very seriously.

"Okay, you said it was biological, so who is her father? This child doesn't look like an imperial person at all. Is her father a foreigner? How did you know a foreigner, and where is that person now?"

"I don't know! I don't know...I...don't know." She murmured and repeated, under Xiao Qing's questioning, her words seemed a little weak, "I only know that this child is my The one born in ten months of pregnancy is my own child!"

Seeing her like this, Xiaoqing became even more anxious. She stood up, came to her, grabbed her shoulders and asked:

"Do you not know why she doesn't look like an imperial person at all, or do you not know who the father of this child is?"

"I do not even know..."

Silence spread between the two, the setting sun was setting mercilessly, stretching the shadows of the two very long, Dudu was still sleeping soundly, and the slight breathing sound could be heard clearly.After a long time, Xiaoqing's hand fell weakly from her shoulder, she straightened up, turned around again, sighed, and started to walk.But suddenly I heard Lin Fei whispering from behind:

"Xiao Qing, do you still remember what this child's first name is?"

Xiao Qing was taken aback, then froze in place, spit out two words as if uncontrollably:

"A gift from God."

"Yes, it is a gift from God. Believe it or not, this child is a child given to me by God. It is my own. I have never had a relationship with any man. This child has no father. Do you believe it? I am still a virgin .”

"What?! Impossible!" Xiaoqing was taken aback, and turned to look at her with wide eyes.A passage suddenly popped up in her mind:

Together with the Incarnation of the Word of God, the Virgin Mary was predestined from beginningless time to be the Mother of God; by divine providence, the Virgin Mary became the Mother of the Savior on earth.His exceptionally generous companion, and the humble Handmaid of the Lord.She conceived, gave birth, and raised Christ, she dedicated Christ to the Father in the temple, shared the pain of Christ who died on the cross, and cooperated with the Savior transcendentally with obedience, faith, hope, and ardent love to rebuild The supernatural life of the human spirit.Therefore, within the realm of grace, Our Lady is our mother...
