Chapter 464: Old Acquaintances
Tang Tang arrived at the location as promised, it was a relatively ordinary small restaurant, just not a meal, around four o'clock in the afternoon, there were few people in the store.
Tang Tang and Lu Yi hesitated for a moment, but still pushed open the door and walked in.
Now at this point, you should usually go out to buy groceries or rest, and there shouldn't be many people who open the door.
But people like them should be ordinary people in places like this.
Tang Tang vaguely guessed that it might be the family members of the elderly in the nursing home.
They pushed the door and walked in, and the waiter quickly greeted them, and when they heard that they were looking for someone, they led them into the box without saying a word.
Although the store is not large, it is divided into two floors, and there are two private rooms that are not too big.
Tang Tang just pushed open the door and saw a woman sitting on the seat, she looked at it in a trance, and vaguely felt that this person seemed familiar.
When the man saw Tang Tang walk in, he stood up himself.
"It's been a long time since I've seen Miss Tang!"
The thought swirled in her mind for a long time, and finally she remembered this person, wasn't it the old man's little daughter?
Tang Tang asked in a puzzled voice, "Did you write that anonymous letter to me?"
The youngest daughter's name is star fruit, and she laughed faintly.
"Yes, yes, sit down and talk, I know you have a lot of questions you want to ask me. ”
Lu Yi was also a little surprised, looking at the woman in front of him, her appearance was not good, and she really couldn't see someone who would do such a thing.
They sat down in surprise.
Carambola made two cups of tea for them, pushed them in front of them, and said slowly.
"Although we siblings had a lot of quarrels, I always felt that my father was very good to us, and he worked hard for us since he was a child, and he was both a father and a mother. ”
"I am old and receive this kind of treatment, but I am powerless. ”
From the carambola's story, they learned that the person they married was not a sound person.
He didn't even need to be served by someone for his basic ability to work, and the most important thing was that his parents had died.
The huge pressure of life had made her have little confidence, and if she brought her father into their house, it would really be even worse.
Besides, she didn't have any skills for so many years, and what she could do was just some noisy work.
Starting from doing small jobs in the ice rink, they have never done anything in electronics factories and restaurants.
Later, they had a little baby, and sometimes they even needed the help of passers-by to watch the child when they went to the toilet.
Life has reached such a point of poverty, if he really takes the old father back, I am afraid that it will also make him uncomfortable.
Rather than this, it is better to give yourself a name of unfilial piety.
Tang Tang couldn't extricate himself for a long time after listening to it, everyone in this world has a very different mentality of life.
As a family, if sisters took care of each other, what an enviable thing.
Most of the families are now only children, and one person has to take on the responsibility of four elderly people.
Even have to support a wife and children, which is very stressful, and if we can support each other, I believe it will not be very bad.
But they always think of themselves and never think of others.
"Then why do you want me to come? You can just call me this way!"
Star Fruit's face turned slightly red and lowered her head, "Although I have never apologized to you in front of you, but in fact, I blame myself in my heart, no matter if the original incident was caused by my brother or my brother, after all, it is also a harm to you, I really don't have the face to see you." ”
"Every time I want to pick up my phone and make a call, I always hesitate to put it down, on the one hand, because I am afraid, you think that our family is a piece of kraft candy that cannot be shaken off, and on the other hand, I really feel sorry for you, but I don't have the ability to bear this consequence now. ”
Tang Tang didn't expect it to be because of such a reason, and he suddenly felt a little sour in his heart.
Every family has its own different life mentality, even if they live together, their personalities may not be the same, and the people taught by the same growth environment are also different.
Lu Yi opened his mouth and asked, "Then why did you lead us to the nursing home, is it because you found something?"
Carambola spoke unhurriedly, "Actually, I already knew about the nurse, although we didn't go to see him in front of my father, but every time in the dead of night, I would quietly go to the window to see him." ”
"That day, he accidentally exposed his arm when he was sleeping, and I saw the black and blue on my body, and I didn't know what to do for a while......"
"I really want to go to the dean to explain all this, but I understand that now we are the one who loses, that is, my father's pension is still in my hands, in fact, there is not much money every month, but I am afraid that if one day they kick my father out of the nursing home because of money, then I at least have this little savings for him. ”
As he spoke, the star fruit took out the passbook of the deposit from the bag and pushed it in front of them.
"This is my father's money, I haven't touched a single cent of it since I went in, and it's all in it. ”
Even if the family is in difficulty, they can't use this money, although their family is quite poor, but this is the bottom line, and they won't be at ease with this money.
Tang Tang glanced at Lu Yi, and the two of them looked at the money on the passbook, indeed, only the income did not go out.
Star fruit continued, "I inquired with others, and they said that it is normal for this kind of thing to occur in a nursing home, and I want to improve it, unless I find media exposure, I didn't want to trouble you at that time." ”
"But I found many media, but no one was willing to take care of this matter, I really couldn't help it, and finally I thought of you. ”
What Tang Tang doesn't understand is that whenever there is a little bit of wind in the media, they will pick up the news, and besides, there is such a big news as abuse in the nursing home, it stands to reason that they should not ignore it.
Perhaps seeing her hesitation, star fruit shrunk her neck and lowered her head in shame, "Because at that time, they offered to let us bear all the costs of the interview, including the transportation expenses for their commuting, roughly calculated, that is thousands of yuan, we can't come up with so much money at once." ”
Lu Yi said angrily, "Is there such a thing now? ”
Tang Tang asked quietly, "So you know everything we have been doing in the nursing home in the past few days, and you also know that Xiaobo took it away, and you also know that it was released today?"
Star fruit nodded subconsciously and quickly explained, "I know it's wrong for me to do this, but I really can't help it!"
