Mo Di

"Everything in the floating life is framed into a picture." "We are like two socks left alone." Mo Di's life was really hard in my opinion. The congenital disease caused her to suffer too much, only The brother who loves money, the aunt who finds it troublesome (maybe she did worry about Mo Di, but she let Mo Di who "can't take care of herself" leave), watching her walk strangely, throwing stones at her children, and The always ironic, grumpy lover El Hoko. Fortunately, Mo Di is so brave, optimistic and kind. Life seems to have never treated her kindly, but she still laughs a lot. She said that she is just a little different from everyone, and some people can't accept this difference. She just paints day after day, year after year. But how can you really not care. She dances in bars and looks for a job, all trying to make herself more "normal". I sometimes wonder if she still chooses to stay in El Hoco's little home after being slapped by the grumpy El Hoco. Besides having nowhere to go, is there another reason why she is in El Hoco who doesn't understand emotions? In Erhoko, she was treated more like a normal person. It's ridiculous to think about it, the two "abnormal" negatives are the best way to get along with each other. In the later period, Erhoko still didn't know how to express love. He still likes to talk ironically, he still has a bad temper, he still likes to quarrel and get angry, but his ice seems to be gradually melting because of Mo Di's paintings, or Mo Di's warmth. It was the first time he drove to Mo Di because of his love. He said he just didn't want Mo Di to leave him. He helped Mo Di find out her daughter's address, and he went with Mo Di who was lying in the snow. In the hospital, he kissed Mo Di's hand at the last moment on the hospital bed, and he took off the wooden board for selling paintings in front of the hut. Maybe the rest of his life will be spent in the memory of Mo Di. The smiling Mo Di, the crying Mo Di, the painting Mo Di, the Mo Di holding the pot, the Mo Di who helped him keep accounts, the Mo Di who got into his life. How could he not remember, such a warm existence may also be one of the few tendernesses in his life.

    The last laugh of the shriveled old lady, the whole life.

  • Antonia 2022-04-10 09:01:08

    Imagination and indomitable vitality are the four seasons of life. The idyll outlines the lines, brushstrokes, flowers, fills and colors the things that can be touched, and the vision is as simple as the mentality in a three-inch grid painting. A brush can fill up a world, joys and sorrows are sealed Beyond the scenery, love is also a kind of adventure. If you and I are weirdos walking in the lonely frontier land, we can warm each other and dance on our toes. Our souls depend on each other
