The Great Earthquake (Novella Marriage Romance Novel) Zhang Baotong

As soon as the sun sets, the sky quickly turns dark. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info A cool breeze began to blow from the mountains not far away. Although it was still the late summer and early autumn season, it made him feel a shivering chill. He stood in front of the school for a long time, looking around again and again, not knowing where he was going, for he had nowhere to go.

He roamed like a ghost, not knowing where he was going, not knowing where he was going, only walking forward. When he walked to the river, he felt that his feet hurt and his calves were weak, and he couldn't walk. Only then did he realize that he had not eaten all day, and that he had no strength in his body or feet, so he had to lie on the grass by the side of the road. Before he could get hooked on his eyes, he felt tears welling up and his bowels were broken. This time, instead of grieving for others, he wept for himself.

After the river, it is the county seat. The lights of thousands of homes in Jiangcheng at night are mysterious like a dream. However, for a lonely ghost who does not know where his home is, the scene in front of him can only make him feel more lonely and strange. He knows that the world is infinitely better. However, a wonderful world belongs only to those who are lucky and happy. And for the miserable and unfortunate, this world can only be cruel and unforgiving. He couldn't help but think of Chen Yujiao and Li Tiangui, why didn't they want to live any longer? Because they didn't want to continue to bear this kind of misery and desolation. Thinking so, his hand involuntarily grabbed the small pill bottle in his trouser pocket.

He sleepwalked through the ruins that had just been cleared and had not yet been cleaned, and came to a familiar building, where he, Wei Hua and his daughter had lived and lived for many years. The building was surrounded by littered rubble and bricks, as well as patches of garbage and waste. Although some of the walls of the building have collapsed, the entire building has not collapsed, and most of the rooms are still intact. The whole building was dark, like a mausoleum that had been stolen. With a sense of confusion and fear, he came to a house on the third floor, only to find that there was no key, for he had not been here for a year or two. But he tried to push hard. What he didn't expect was that the door actually opened.

As soon as he entered the house, he was stirred with something and fell to the ground. When he got up from the floor, through the moonlight outside the window, he saw the TV, sofa and low cabinet scattered all over the living room. Looking at the bedroom and study, the collapsed wardrobes and bookcases filled the whole room, and even people couldn't get in.

He took out a candle and a box of matches from the cabinet that had fallen to the ground, and when he lit them, the room was lit up. The first thing he saw was the clock, which had been broken and the hour hand stopped at exactly two o'clock twenty-eight. Next to the clock is a photo of Wei Hua and his daughter. He solemnly placed the photograph on the small table, then sat down on a small stool and carefully examined it in the bright light.

This is a group photo of Wei Hua and his daughter by the river in early spring, although there is a bright golden light and a large area of spring flowers, but Wei Hua is frowning and his eyes are slightly confused. Although the daughter was smiling, there was a hint of sadness in her smile. From their eyes, it was obvious to him that the damage he had done to them was almost fatal, exactly the same as the fatal wound caused to him by Cui Meiying's departure.

Looking at it, he couldn't help but burst into tears, yes, he betrayed his wife and daughter, and now he is abandoned again, maybe this is retribution. At present, he is a lonely man, with nothing, no love and love, no home and no relatives, except for life, boundless regret and deep guilt.

Thinking of this, he pulled out the small bottle from his trouser pocket. Then he opened the cap of the bottle, poured the tablets inside into the palm of his hand, and counted the total of 32 tablets. He knew very well that once these pills were taken into his body, he could sleep forever in the world, and all the worries and pains would disappear forever, but what made him feel most happy and relieved was that Cui Meiying would never be at peace because of this, because she betrayed him, insulted him, and made him fall to this miserable state. She's going to pay for it.

Thinking like this, he felt that he was really tired and sleepy, and wanted to sleep well. So, he picked up a dusty can of Lulu from the refrigerator that had fallen to the ground, wiped the dust on it with his hands, opened the lid of the bucket, took a big sip of it, and then, very calmly and soberly, put the pills into his mouth in three or four times.

Originally, he thought he would die without waking up. Still, there were some unexpected sounds that woke him from his slumber. When I started to wake up, I felt extremely sleepy in my brain, my whole body was weak, and my entire internal organs and lungs seemed to have been soaked in water, which was very uncomfortable. As he dreamed, he heard someone talking. He couldn't remember what he said, but they made his consciousness clear.

He wondered where this was, how could there be so many people talking. So, he opened his eyes vigorously to see what was going on. It turned out that he was sleeping in a hospital bed, which was surrounded by people, including doctors and nurses, as well as leaders and colleagues from many units. He then remembered why he was lying in this place.

Seeing that he opened his eyes, everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and some people shouted in surprise, "Director Ye is awake." This made Ye Nan feel very ashamed and ashamed, as if he had done an ugly thing that betrayed the party and the people. So, he immediately closed his eyes and turned around. Because he doesn't want to see everyone, and he doesn't want everyone to look at him.

Although he didn't want to see everyone and didn't want everyone to look at him, his leaders and colleagues still cared about him very much. Everyone gathered around him and refused to leave. From their conversation, he knew that he had just undergone ** gastric lavage treatment, otherwise, the energy of those drugs would have killed him. Although he had broken free from the clutches of death, his body was still very weak, and he could only lie on the hospital bed and play the hanging bottle. So, he kept his eyes closed and pretended to be asleep.

Probably late in the evening, when he awoke from his sleep again, he saw that the room was gone, and only an old woman was left sitting by his bed. At first, Ye Nan thought that he was hired by the unit to take care of him, but when he looked at it, he felt that this woman was very familiar. So he leaned hard and turned his head to look at the woman. When he saw the woman clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned. It turned out to be an elderly mother-in-law.

Perhaps she was too tired, and her mother-in-law had fallen asleep on the edge of the bed. In the divorce from Wei Hua, the mother-in-law has always been a hurdle that Ye Nan is psychologically difficult to overcome. This is not that his mother-in-law has any difficulties for him, and his mother-in-law is too good to him, especially in terms of marriage, Wei Hua has already fallen in love with someone else and determined the relationship, but when Ye Nan proposed to Wei Hua, Wei Hua couldn't make up his mind for a while, but Wei Hua's mother had a very good impression of Ye Nan, and insisted that Wei Hua dissolve the relationship with that person and marry Ye Nan. Therefore, Ye Nan has always been very grateful to her mother-in-law.

Since divorcing Wei Hua, what Ye Nan is most afraid of seeing is his mother-in-law, and now his mother-in-law is in front of him. I haven't seen her for a year or two, and my mother-in-law seems to be much older, and the gray hair on her head is already a whole patch. Ye Nan was born in a farming family in the south, and basically had no other relatives in the local area except for the people of Wei Hua's family.

At this time, the mother-in-law opened her eyes and looked at the tears in Ye Nan's eyes, so she stroked Ye Nan's hair with her hand and said, "Nan'er, are you awake?" Ye Nan didn't say anything, just closed his eyes and cried silently, because he felt that he really had no face to see his mother-in-law.

But the mother-in-law said, "Nan'er, I heard from the doctor that you have taken a lot of sleeping pills, if it weren't for the patrol police who saw the lights on in the dangerous building at night, went up to check, and sent you to the hospital in time, you might not be saved." Then, the mother-in-law said in a reproachful tone, "I finally survived the earthquake, why don't I want to take sleeping pills?"

Ye Nan said, "I feel sorry for Wei Hua, I'm sorry for the child, my entire right arm was also smashed, I can't draw, what's the point of living." The mother-in-law said, "So many people can't draw, and not all of them live well." Ye Nan nodded silently and asked, "How is my dad?" The mother-in-law shook her head and said, "He is gone, he happened to be playing mahjong in the bungalow in front of the building during the earthquake, and when the bungalow fell, he and the mahjong players were stoned to death." ”

As soon as Ye Nan heard this, he grabbed his mother-in-law's hand tightly and shouted, "Mom, you are so pitiful." Then he said, "My dad is gone, so what will you live on in the future?" because my mother-in-law has never worked and lives on my father-in-law's pension. The mother-in-law said, "Your father's unit gives me 200 yuan a month for living expenses, and I earn the rest myself." Hearing this, Ye Nan felt a whimper in his throat, he let out a long sigh and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will provide for you." But the mother-in-law said, "I won't let you keep it, I will earn my own money to support myself." Let others say this, maybe Ye Nan will not be surprised, but from the mouth of his mother-in-law, who can't read a single word, it really makes Ye Nan feel shocked, and he feels that there is a kind of quality and strength in his mother-in-law that he lacks the most.
