Chapter 29: The Story of Xiaomei's Family
At the door of the operating room at the end of the corridor, two people talk to each other about something, no one else knows what they are talking about, and occasionally a few nurses passing by think that it is a young couple with a talented man and a woman.
Of course, Liu Chen will not have any excessive actions towards Zhen Shanmei, in his heart, this girl is as pure as a white magnolia that has just bloomed, white and flawless, sacred and inviolable.
And in Zhen Shanmei's heart, Liu Chen gave her a girlish dream for the first time, just like the hero who stepped on the seven-colored clouds in the heart of the Zixia Fairy. However, she was still only a student, too far away from this hazy fantasy, and when she thought of this, she felt a sour taste in her heart, what was she thinking about? She felt a little embarrassed, and immediately took out a calculus from her mind to offset the guilt in her heart.
The two of them each thought about the little Jiujiu in their hearts, and occasionally looked at each other and smiled.
Liu Chen suddenly remembered the scene in the ward just now, and asked tentatively, "Xiaomei, can I ask you some personal questions?"
"Absolutely. Zhen Shanmei replied with a wink.
Liu Chen straightened up, thought for a while and asked, "Your surname is Zhen, your father's surname is Guan, do you have your mother's surname?"
I thought that this question would make Zhen Shanmei feel a little offended, but she didn't shy away from anything, explaining: "This father is actually not my biological father, my biological father's surname is Zhen, and my mother and I were kicked out of the house by my father to form a new family here." When Zhen Shanmei said this, she didn't have the sad feeling that ordinary girls talked about their unfortunate family background, but felt that escaping from the original family was a kind of luck and relief, and her eyes revealed her love for the current family.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked. Liu Chen said apologetically.
Zhen Shanmei smiled: "It's okay." ”
From Zhen Shanmei's own narration, Liu Chen heard a story full of sadness and love.
That was 10 years ago.
Zhen Shanmei's biological father is called Zhen Ming, a gangster who is addicted to gambling and drinking, and likes domestic violence, lost more than one million family properties, Zhen Shanmei's mother Lin Huimei persuaded him to stop, and the couple re-created, but in exchange for one meal after another of domestic violence, almost every night, there would be heart-rending wails and screeching sounds of broken glass in the house, and Zhen Shanmei hid in the room and shivered.
In the face of her father's endless domestic violence, Zhen Shanmei has become very inner and timid since she was a child, although she has been a beauty embryo since she was a child, but she has no self-confidence, and her father's scolding has become a daily routine that she must endure when she comes home from school every day.
Zhen Shanmei and her mother asked their neighbors for help many times, but because her father was a ruffian, no one in the neighbors dared to offend him, so they all hid far away, so as not to harm themselves. Zhen Shanmei and her mother's life is full of violence and despair, is this the end of this life? Mother and daughter often hug each other and cry bitterly.
Finally, one day, the worst and the best happened, and the fate of their mother and daughter changed forever.
Zhen Shanmei's father returned home with a young girl wearing heavy makeup and kicked Zhen Shanmei and her mother and daughter out of the house. Mother and daughter were ruthlessly kicked out of the house, they had no money, no change of clothes, nothing to sustain themselves, but they both felt a sense of freedom that they had never felt before.
Although there was nothing, they finally left the cave without fear of being beaten in fear. Lin Huimei took her eight-year-old daughter, standing under the cold night sky, looking at the happy families coming and going, and felt extremely sad in her heart.
Lin Huimei wanted to take her daughter back to her parents' house, but after thinking about it, Zhen Ming would definitely go to her mother's house to ask for someone at that time, and if she returned to him, she would definitely encounter more tragic domestic violence, and it would also affect her elderly parents, Lin Huimei was ruthless and decided to leave here with her daughter.
Lin Huimei took her daughter to beg all the way, unknowingly came to Jiangxia City from Ningzhou County, and met her current husband Guan Shaoqing in Dongyi Village. At that time, Guan Shaoqing was building a stove at the door, and when he saw the mother and daughter shivering from the cold, he hurriedly brought them into the house and gave them hot food. For Lin Huimei, who had tasted the warmth and coldness of human affection, suddenly met such a person who was eager to help them, the grievances that had been held back for too long finally couldn't help but be released all at once, and the tears flowed non-stop as if the floodgates had been opened, Guan Shaoqing was also stunned by this scene.
Guan Shaoqing was busy inquiring about the situation, and Lin Huimei told her tragic experience with tears in her eyes, which made Guan Shaoqing, who has always been strong, unable to help shedding tears, and he said indignantly: "It's just a brute, why don't you call the police?"
Lin Huimei snorted helplessly: "I've tried it, it's useless, they don't care about this kind of family conflict, what they get is not more violent domestic violence, alas, but it's a bitter daughter like Xiaomei." ”
The girl on the side wiped her mother's tears and comforted her not to cry, which made the two adults feel even more distressed.
Fill her stomach, and she can't continue to trouble people anymore, Lin Huimei got up and took her daughter's hand, bowed deeply to Guan Shaoqing, and thanked: "Thank you eldest brother for your hospitality to us, it's time for us to go, thank you!"
"Thank you, uncle!"
After speaking, the mother and daughter turned around and walked out of the door, Guan Shaoqing's heart was hot, it was freezing outside, where else could they go, they couldn't rest assured, chased them out and asked, "Wait a minute, where are you going to go?"
Lin Huimei turned around and said: "The world is so big, there is always a place to go." ”
The cold wind blew, blowing her hair and covering her tearful eyes, the little girl was so cold that her mouth kept sizzling, Guan Shaoqing stood by the stove, glanced at her home, and hesitated for a long time before saying: "The child is so small, but he can't stand the cold." ”
Lin Huimei glanced at her daughter, bit her lip and didn't speak.
"If you don't dislike it, you will live here tonight, you sleep in the bed, I will make a bunk, and wait for the weather to be warmer tomorrow, how about it?"
Although Lin Huimei is a beauty, Guan Shaoqing is also dignified and upright, and she doesn't have any thoughts about it, she just wants the poor mother and daughter to suffer less. He waited for Lin Huimei's affirmative answer.
Lin Huimei raised her head, brushed her messy hair, and kept blinking her cigarette, for fear that tears would flow uncontrollably again. Calm down and think about it, where else can I go? I can't live in a hotel penniless, I can do it, but my daughter is so young, and she can't bear to suffer with herself, she really can't bear it, she looked at Guan Shaoqing not far away, and nodded: "Then it's troublesome big brother." ”
Guan Shaoqing finally put his mind at ease and showed a relaxed smile.
However, Lin Huimei insisted on sleeping on the floor with her daughter, but Guan Shaoqing couldn't help it, so she had to make the floor thick, so that the mother and daughter could sleep on the floor with peace of mind.
Lin Huimei also learned from Guan Shaoqing that he was also a poor man, his son disappeared shortly after he was born, and his wife was ill from then on, and died eight years later. Guan Shaoqing was very sad, thinking that he was sorry for his son and wife, so he never started a family again, and he lived alone for ten years.
is also a fallen person, Guan Shaoqing and Lin Huimei also feel deep sympathy and comfort for each other.
The next day, the weather turned sunny and sunny, Guan Shaoqing got up early to make breakfast for their mother and daughter, and then chopped wood at the door.
Suddenly, there was a hurried shout from the house: "Xiaomei, what's wrong with you?
Guan Shaoqing put down the axe and rushed back to the house, only to see Zhen Shanmei lying on the ground with her eyes closed, her mouth kept muttering, and when she touched her forehead, it was hot and hot, "Oh no, Xiaofa has a high fever, I have to send it to the hospital to hang salt water quickly." ”
With the help of Lin Huimei, he picked Zhen Shanmei on his back, rushed out the door and ran to the clinic two kilometers away, and Lin Huimei followed closely behind. Zhen Shanmei's hot face lay on Guan Shaoqing's shoulder, and she could feel her hot temperature through the thick clothes, Guan Shaoqing couldn't wait to borrow a car, and sped up to run to the clinic. In the winter, Guan Shaoqing ran out of sweat and panted and finally arrived at the clinic, there was only one middle-aged female doctor inside, who had not yet put on a white coat, and had just come to the clinic.
She saw Guan Shaoqing running in a hurry, hurriedly stepped forward and put the girl flat on the hospital bed, picked up the thermometer and measured her temperature, it was 39 degrees! This frightened Guan Shaoqing, and Lin Huimei, who followed behind, was also frightened, such a young child had a high fever, worried about whether it would affect the body, especially the brain.
The doctor advised: "Don't worry, it shouldn't affect the brain, but you need to get an injection and infusion immediately, and you need to do a good job of recuperation and nutrition in the future." ”
Listening to the doctor's words, Guan Shaoqing and Lin Huimei breathed a long sigh of relief: "The child is fine." ”
During the infusion process, Zhen Shanmei slowly woke up, and Lin Huimei apologized to her daughter on the side: "Xiaomei, mom is sorry for you, let you suffer with me, mom is sorry for you." Tears flowed uncontrollably as she spoke, and the sensible Zhen Shanmei was still comforting her mother: "Don't say that, being with my mother is the happiness I want most, don't cry." ”
Lin Huimei was both moved and distressed, wiped her tears and nodded vigorously in agreement: "Xiaomei is so good, mother won't cry, ah." ”
Seeing that the mother and daughter had nowhere to go, and the child was sick again, Guan Shaoqing said what he thought in his heart: "Well, that, I have a suggestion, I don't know if you agree, that is, your mother and daughter will live first, Xiaomei, the child can no longer be cold and hungry outside, do you understand what I mean?"
There is nowhere to go, Lin Huimei has to face the reality even if she is stubborn, the child's body is the most important, and now it is only about the eldest brother who is willing to help their mother and daughter, Lin Huimei nodded and said: "Okay, then trouble Brother Guan." ”
Guan Shaoqing hurriedly replied: "No trouble, no trouble." ”
After the infusion and injection, with some antipyretics, the two took Zhen Shanmei home to recuperate, Guan Shaoqing also went to buy a lot of supplements to replenish Zhen Shanmei's body, of course, Lin Huimei is also indispensable, she is a weak woman wandering outside, and her body is inevitably tortured.
Later, when Zhen Shanmei's health improved, Guan Shaoqing didn't let them leave. After a long time, Lin Huimei's gratitude to Guan Shaoqing slowly turned into love, she once lived in a troubled marriage, complaining about God's injustice to her, but now she found that God treats her well, has a sensible and beautiful daughter, and has also met a good man like Guan Shaoqing, she has renewed hope for her future life.
After ten years of lonely life, I didn't expect that there would be people by my side when I got older, Guan Shaoqing was no longer as silent as before, he loved Lin Huimei and Zhen Shanmei in every way, he believed that this was God's special kindness to him, and he could bring happiness to him again.
Two people who had lost hope in life gave each other endless love and hope, and the family of three finally got happy care again.
Speaking of the wonderful fate of her family, Zhen Shanmei is full of emotion and gratitude, Liu Chen can see the overflowing happiness on her face, and bless this family from the bottom of her heart.
