For coal mines, dead people are common, which will not cause excessive vibration, let alone stop the rhythm of production and life.

When a new grave was piled up on the hillside behind the mining hospital, everything in the Honggou Coal Mine was still rumbling, the coal chutes were rolling endlessly, the coal trucks were roaring into the distance, and at night, the lights were still as bright as stars.

Wang Youmu said goodbye to this world forever, and soon heavy snow will cover the entire tomb, and the name of this ordinary person will disappear forever in people's memory.

But for the small courtyard of the low-rise bungalow of the Honggou Coal Mine, it seems to be the end of the world, where there was once a warm and happy home, and now, the wife has lost her husband, the son has lost his father, and their sun has fallen forever......

For several days, the unfortunate Xu Qiuli has been lying in bed.

Until now, she didn't believe that Wang Youmu was dead, her hair was disheveled, her eyes were red and swollen, as long as there was a little sound from the other side of the door, she jumped out of bed frantically to see if her husband had come back?

Faced with the empty hut, she could only crouch on the doorframe and weep once, and once the poor child cried with her.

She didn't eat it herself, but the child still needed her NAI water, she forced herself to swallow a little bit of food, and every time she put her husband's chopsticks and water cups on the dinner table, it was a hopeless expectation, but she believed that her husband would definitely walk into the house with a smile as usual, sit at the dinner table, and praise her cooking skills while eating.

She was lying on the bed, holding her poor son miserably, Zhao Wenbin and his wife Cui Li walked in, Cui Li looked at Xu Qiuli with a haggard face on the bed, and said distressedly

"Qiuli, you want to open it, people can't be resurrected after death, you can't go on like this, no matter what, you also have to consider whether the child is or not. ”

Looking at Xu Qiuli, who was stunned and speechless, Zhao Wenbin said

"Qiu Li, Youmu is all to save me, you and the child will be taken care of by our husband and wife in the future, your sister Li is right, no matter what, you have to think about the child, if you go on like this, your body will collapse, what should the child do!"

Xu Qiuli looked down at the sleeping child and said hoarsely

"You help me look at the child, I want to go and see Youki. ”

Everyone who should have come on the day of Wang Youmu's burial came, but Xu Qiuli didn't go, she has been like this since she learned the news of Wang Youmu's unfortunate death.

Zhao Wenbin and his wife looked at each other, and Cui Li said

"Okay, Qiuli, go see Youmu, I'll look at the child, let you Brother Wenbin accompany you. ”

Xu Qiuli said while handing the child in her arms to Cui Li

"No, I'm fine, I just want to go over alone, talk to him a few words, you don't have to worry, I'll be back in a while." ”

After speaking, she put on a leather jacket from before Wang Youmu and staggered out of the house.

There has been no snow for the past few days, and there is only one grave bag in the cemetery that has not been covered by heavy snow, standing alone in the northeast corner of this cemetery.

Xu Qiuli came to the cemetery, sat on the tombstone like that, gently stroked the tombstone with her hand, and it seemed that Wang Youmu, who was not tall and didn't like to talk much, appeared in front of her for the first time, and tears kept falling from her face like beads with broken threads.

She hugged the tombstone tightly with her arms, as if she was holding her husband in her arms, and I don't know how long it took, suddenly she turned around and kept digging the grave bag with both hands, she felt that her husband was not dead, he was pressed under this damn dirt bag, and she wanted to dig it open and rescue her husband, and if she really died, she would also dig open this damn dirt bag, and she would lie down with her husband so that he would not be so alone.

"Qiu Li, don't be like this, Qiu Li, woo woo~~~" Cui Li didn't know when she came, she cried and hugged Xu Qiuli who was crazy.

But Xu Qiuli still kept digging the grave bag, and turned a deaf ear to Cui Li's words.

"Qiuli, don't be like this, you have to think about the child, if Youmu knows, he will be sad. Cui Li almost pleaded

Suddenly, the child standing in Zhao Wenbin's arms not far away let out a burst of crying, which made Xu Qiuli stop all movements as if she had been immobilized.

Xu Qiuli turned around, threw herself into Cui Li's arms and cried loudly, the cry was tear-jerking, as if it was going to penetrate people's souls......

Ten days after Wang Youmu was killed, the accident was finally qualified, that is, an ordinary safety accident, the responsible person Zhang Ercai was dismissed, and Honggou Mine paid the family of the dead miner Wang Youmu a year's salary as a pension, and Wang Youmu's wife also arranged a job, that is, a teacher at the mine primary school.

The next morning, the people from the life service department came to the small courtyard and informed Xu Qiuli that no matter what, she must go to the mining department this morning to deal with some aftermath matters related to Wang Youmu.

Xu Qiuli originally wanted to ask Cui Li to help take care of the child and go to the mining department by herself, but the person from the life service department actually notified Cui Li to go to the mining department.

Xu Qiuli had no choice but to hold the child and came to the mining department, and after seeing the sign of the life service department hanging on the door, she knocked lightly on the door

"Come in!" a man's voice came from the office

Xu Qiuli pushed the door and walked in, a forty-year-old man in the office was sitting behind a desk, he looked at Xu Qiuli who came in and asked

"What's the matter with you?"

"I am Wang Youmu's wife, and someone informed me in the morning and asked me to come. ”

As soon as he heard that it was his wife who was killed and absent from work, Zhang Qing quickly stood up,

"I'm Zhang Qing, the head of the Life Service Section, come, sit down, you are Wang Youmu's wife, I hope you can mourn, Wang Youmu is a good comrade, alas! Who knows it will ......"

After speaking, he brought a glass of water to Xu Qiuli, who was sitting on the sofa, and continued to be concerned

"People can't be resurrected after death, you have to open a point, I heard that your child is not yet half a year old, you have to take care of your body. ”

Xu Qiuli nodded

"Thank you, Section Chief Zhang, I don't know what you are looking for me?"

"That's right, mainly Comrade Wang Youmu's funeral expenses, pension, and about your future work arrangements. Zhang Qingdao

Looking at Xu Qiuli, who didn't seem to understand what he meant, he continued

"The funeral expenses and pension are a total of 800 yuan, about your arrangement, it is arranged by the mine manager Shi personally, if you are not willing to leave the Honggou mine, you can go to our mine primary school as a classroom. ”

He paused and continued

"That's it, if you think there is no problem, you can sign with me, go to the finance room on the second floor to get the money, if you have no opinion on your arrangement, after half a month, you have to go to work." ”

Xu Qiuli had already thought about it, although Honggou was very bitter, she didn't want to leave Honggou now, she wanted to accompany Wang Youmu here, she couldn't leave her lover alone, her husband would be too lonely here.

"Okay, I don't have a problem. Xu Qiuli said

Seeing that Xu Qiuli had no opinions, Zhang Qing asked her to sign a few words, and Xu Qiuli left the Life Service Department.

Xu Qiuli went to the finance department on the second floor to get the money, and hurried home, she saw the door of the small courtyard open from a distance, Xu Qiuli thought that Cui Li should have returned.

She walked into the yard and took a look at Cui Li's house, and found that the door lock was still hanging on the door, Cui Li did not come back, she walked to the door of her house a little strangely.

The lock of her house had been smashed and thrown on the ground next to it, and the door was also hidden, and when she pushed the door in, the house was in a mess, the contents of the cabinet had been turned out and thrown to the ground, and the bedding on the bed had been thrown aside......

She hurriedly opened the cabinet and found a small bag, and when she opened it, she let out a long sigh of relief to see that the little money and food stamps she had at home were lying safely in the small bag.

Finally cleaned up the messy home, Xu Qiuli found that it seemed that nothing was lost at home, and she didn't understand what this thief was stealing?

She didn't notice that the kettle next to her husband's Gobi stones had disappeared......
