Chapter 149 It's good that you're not dead
Wang Er worked as a porter at the Jinshui Wharf in the East China Sea in his early years, and at that time, most of the goods were still carried on the shoulders of manpower, and he could barely support his family with his strength. I heard the foreman say, what is the door crane, grab ship unloader, what belt conveyor, and what artificial intelligence control system, which can control those machines to automatically move goods and send them directly to the unloading truck. For people like Wang Er, who have lived on the dock for generations, he naturally thought that if there was a dock, he would need a dock porter like him, and he never thought that one day he would be eliminated by these machines.
Wang Er has a distant cousin, who has been a child since he was a child, and he has been taught him a lot of lessons before, and he always thinks that this kid has no hope in his life. How do you think that when he is desperate, this distant cousin who he has always looked down on is like a dog, the cigarette he smokes is Great China, his hair is also shiny, and his shot is quite generous, every time he comes, he has a big bag and a small bag, and the red envelopes for his son's New Year's money are 1,2000 stuffs, Wang Er doesn't understand, what's wrong with this world, the more idle and lazy people who are lazy all day long, the more mixed up the better, and the person who is never lazy with his hard work ends up at a dead end. Seeing that his cousin's house was getting bleaker and bleaker, the distant cousin persuaded Wang Er to follow him more than once, but he was scolded back by Wang Er.
There is less and less work on the dock, and Wang Er is getting older and older, where can he get any work to do. A few years ago, I was introduced by people everywhere, and finally entered a paper mill as a mixer, and the treatment was much better than when I was a dock worker. Not long after entering the factory, the paper mill was ordered to close because of too much pollution. When he got home that night, Wang Er remembered very clearly, his daughter-in-law's face was as cold as ice, and his daughter-in-law's words were sneering, and that night, his daughter-in-law kicked him under the bed. He doesn't blame his daughter-in-law for looking down on him, he only blames himself for being useless, even if his daughter-in-law doesn't live a good life with him, his son is still a seedling in his studies, and he will be admitted to university soon. That's all he has in his life, but he must not bury his son's good future.
Lying on the sofa in the small living room all night, Wang Er is an honest man, but being honest does not mean being stupid, he knows that his cousin is not doing anything serious. Wang Er is a person who wants face, but unfortunately his face is not as valuable as the stars in the movie, his daughter-in-law's eyebrows are cold, and his son will graduate from high school and go to college immediately. After a night of struggle, I slammed the door early in the morning to find the cousin who had always looked down on him.
Under the introduction of his cousin, he reluctantly became an old bastard, and followed a group of young bastards every day to help people collect accounts. But this line of work is a soft-hearted person who can do it well, so over the years, the mix is still bleak, but fortunately, he can barely support his wife and children.
Sitting in the cab of a Dongfeng truck, I opened my mobile phone and flipped out a photo, a man and a woman in the photo, with a sunny smile on their faces, the man is tall and handsome, he is his son who has just graduated from college, the woman is beautiful, and is the son's girlfriend, both of them graduated from college this year, and the son took his girlfriend home and said that he was going to get married. Wang Er was so happy, after so many years, he finally got out, and Wang Er was really happy that day, and he drank a lot of wine with his son.
At the end of the drink, the prospective daughter-in-law twisted and pinched, and said to Wang Er embarrassedly, "Uncle, we are going to move out." ”
The son has been with him for so many years, and when he heard this, Wang Er was a little disappointed, but when he turned his head and thought about it, his son grew up and immediately started a family, and it was understandable to move out to live in the two-person world of the young couple.
Wang Er nodded drunkenly, "You have also seen that our house is a palm-sized place with this room and one hall, and it is really inconvenient for you two young people to live." ”
The son wanted to speak and stopped, and the prospective daughter-in-law touched her son with her arm.
The son plucked up the courage and said, "Dad, we want to buy a house of our own." ”
Wang Er was a little drunk, "Buy a house, the house in Donghai is fifty or sixty thousand square meters, how can you buy it when you just graduated." ”
The son lowered his head, and the prospective daughter-in-law said with a smile, "Uncle, we thought, seeing that it is inconvenient for you here, if it is convenient, give us a down payment first." ”
Wang Er was stunned for a moment, and the wine suddenly woke up for most of the time, in order to provide for his son to go to college all these years, he and his mother-in-law have not bought a new dress for four or five years, where did they get the money to buy a house.
"Dad, if it's inconvenient, forget it. The son said with some shame.
The prospective daughter-in-law next to her saw this, and her face immediately became unsightly, "Uncle, it's not me who is snobbish, you go out and inquire, which girl is willing to marry a person who has no house or car now, my requirements are actually not high, I don't want a car, I don't want you to give a house, I just want you to pay a down payment." ”
The son finally couldn't bear it, and he didn't completely know how difficult it was for his father to support the family over the years. "You shut up for me", as he spoke, he stretched out his hand and prepared to slap the beloved woman next to him,
Wang Eryi grabbed his son's hand, squeezed out a smile on his face, and said to his daughter-in-law, "My son is so stubborn, you should bear more." ”
Wang Er silently lit a cigarette, his hands trembled slightly, he knew that the words of the prospective daughter-in-law were right, these years, laughing at the poor and not smiling at the prostitute, there is no hard goods in his hand, what is to blame for his son to marry a daughter-in-law, if you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for being useless as a father, take a deep breath of cigarette, Wang Er said: "I have also had some savings over the years, but they have all been deposited in the bank for a fixed term, and they will expire next month, and I will take them out to you when the time comes." ”
Chunhui Road, where there is a very steep and long road, to the residential buildings in the urban village, this road is the road of Bijing. A young man appeared in Wang Er's sight, and Wang Er looked at the photo of his son, his face full of doting smiles. Slowly put the mobile phone in his pocket, took out the two-pot head that had been prepared, and drank it all. With a slam on the accelerator, the truck slammed down from the top of the road, its engine roaring like a horn of death.
As the distance gradually approached, Wang Er found that the young man was really young, so young that he looked like his own son. Wang Er was a little soft-hearted, but when he thought that he would be able to get a lot of money after the matter was completed, this money was just enough to pay a down payment for his son, and he was soft-hearted but not soft under his feet, just silently chattered, my name is Wang Er, after you die, go to the Lord of Yama to sue me, and in the future, I will admit it to the knife mountain and the oil pot, and I will be a cow and a horse for you to pay off your debts for the rest of your life.
The east wind truck roared towards a wild horse and galloped towards the young man.
Seeing that the oncoming truck was a little out of control, the young man instinctively stepped over the guardrail of the highway and retreated out of the road. The truck saw the man retreat beyond the guardrail, and the steering wheel slammed into the guardrail.
Lu Shanmin realized that this was the truck out of control, which was simply because he wanted his own life, he had no time to think, took a deep breath, kicked the soles of his feet on the guardrail, and withdrew a few meters with the power of the rebound, hitting a street tree. Before he could think about it, he turned his palm into a claw, and his ten fingers sank deep into the street tree, and with all his strength, he jumped up with the help of his strength and climbed to one of the branches of the street tree. The whole series of actions is done in one go, without the slightest gap. With a loud bang, the truck broke through the guardrail and rushed madly like a mad bull.
Bang, the truck smashed the entire street tree like a straw, and Lu Shanmin was thrown to the slope protection by the huge impact force like a broken kite with the stump of the branches and leaves. There was a muffled snort, and a heart-rending pain came from all over his body.
Boom, boom, boom, under the huge inertia, the truck smashed into the street tree, slammed into the slope like a thunderbolt, rolled on its side, and in the cab, a stream of bright blood flowed out like a red snake, soaking the green grass all the way.
Lu Shanmin spat out a mouthful of blood, his whole body was exhausted, and no matter how hard he tried, his limbs couldn't move a bit. Only there was still a trace of clarity in his mind, and he bit his lower lip fiercely, trying not to let himself fall asleep. Lao Huang said that when a person is seriously injured, if he passes out in a coma, it is very likely that he will never wake up again.
The steel beast had become fragmented, and was now quietly crawling not far from the feet of Lu Shanmin. Through the dilapidated front of the car, you can see that the driver is a middle-aged man about fifty years old, his flesh and blood are blurred, and the corners of his mouth are gurgling with red blood.
Maybe it was the return of light, the man's trance-like eyes suddenly flashed a bright gaze, cast on Lu Shanmin not far away, there was a trace of surprise in his eyes, then a trace of happiness and comfort, and finally a smile.
The middle-aged man tried to open his mouth, blood gushed out of his mouth, exerted all his strength, and said vaguely: "You, you are not dead", and after a few seconds, he showed a relaxed smile, "It's okay, it's good that you're not dead." After saying that, the whole person went limp.
There was such a big car accident, which attracted many onlookers around, some people were busy calling 120, and some people hurriedly called the police.
Lu Shanmin tried his best to stay awake, but his consciousness became more and more blurred, he heard the sound of the siren in a trance, and seemed to hear the sound of an ambulance, and he felt in a daze that someone had lifted him to the stretcher, and the whole person seemed to be swimming in space, unable to find a sense of direction. I want to reach out and grab something, but I feel empty around me and I can't grasp anything. Until the end nothing can be seen, nothing can be heard.
