Chapter 034: Heavy Rain in Late Autumn
Why isn't there anyone tonight?
It was almost half past eight when Chen Yao arrived at Anning Building Materials City, and at this time in the past, there were already laborers waiting to unload the goods, but today there was no one. ~with~dream~small~say~ั~suimะตng~lฤ
"It's best not to come, no one is rushing to carry it with me, then I can earn at least more than 400 yuan in one night, and I can earn back the 5,000 yuan I lost in more than ten days." โ
Chen Yao thought with some rejoicing, with a hint of a smile on his face.
He held a pebble in his hand, and by the dim light he kept drawing strings of numbers on the concrete floor.
"It's going to be winter soon, buy a new cotton coat for your daughter, you have to get about four hundred, buy a better pair of cotton shoes, that will cost more than three hundred, Shen Qiu's down jacket has been worn for three years, and this year you have to change to a new one, six or seven hundred. โ
"This winter, it is estimated that you will have to use more than a ton of coal, and it is not safe to use a stove, otherwise you will find a way to buy an air conditioner, then it will cost two or three thousand, or four thousand?"
Then I can't be a little slack this month, if I can carry 800 bags of cement bags every night, that is, 400 yuan, a month is 12,000 yuan, I can definitely make up the 5,000 yuan, and I can also buy necessities for the winter. โ
Under the cold autumn moon, Chen Yao was complacent.
"No, it's ten o'clock. โ
Chen Yao took out his mobile phone, the broken mobile phone screen could still tell the time, seeing that it was already ten o'clock in the evening, there was still no one in the yard, not a single car, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart.
He hurriedly took out his mobile phone and dialed the foreman Liu Fu's number.
"Hey, who?"
Liu Fu seemed to have slept, and he was a little confused when he spoke.
Chen Yao said hurriedly.
"Hey, Brother Liu, I'm Chen Yao, it's already ten o'clock, why haven't you started yet?
Chen Yao still had a hint of expectation in his heart.
But Liu Fu's words made Chen Yao feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Oh, it's you, I didn't get through this morning, because it's very cold now, so many projects have been stopped, and there is no sales of cement in the building materials city at present, so I have disbanded the labor team, and there will be no such work to be done before April next year." โ
Chen Yao held the phone and froze in place.
Only now Chen Yao was still fantasizing about using the money to carry cement to make up for the 5,000 yuan he had lost, and he also had to buy cotton clothes and shoes for his daughter and wife, but now it has all become a dream.
"Brother Liu, can you help me think of a way? The situation at my family is very bad now, is there any other work besides carrying cement in the building materials market? I can do anything. โ
Chen Yao said that he was a little excited, his whole body began to tremble, and his chest rose and fell violently.
He felt a little unbelievable and a little unacceptable, how could he suddenly lose his job, 5,000 yuan was lost, and the living expenses of the whole family were only a few hundred yuan left by his wife, and his salary in the heyday car dealership would not be paid at least a month and a half later.
At that time, it was already winter, and how could the 500 yuan or so last until the peak of the car dealership's salary? There was not enough to eat, let alone buy cotton clothes and shoes for his wife and daughter.
Chen Yao's face was ugly.
All his plans are based on the basis of continuing to work here to make money, what a beautiful dream, why was it suddenly shattered?
Liu Fu on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then said.
"Chen Yao, it's not that my brother won't help you, I also want to take a job to make money, but now it's going to be winter, all the projects have stopped, I really can't help you, go home early, I'm sorry." โ
The phone was hung up.
"Boom. โ
Suddenly, there was a violent roar in the sky, and a bright lightning bolt illuminated the entire flower city.
"Bang, bang. โ
The downpour came unexpectedly.
There is very little rain this autumn, and it is already the end of autumn at the moment, so God wants to bring down all the rain that has been accumulated for a year.
On this night of late autumn, when the rain was pouring down, Chen Yao was unemployed.
Chen Yao walked on the road in the face of the heavy rain, and the whole person walked on the road home like a walking corpse.
Suddenly, Chen Yao pouted, knelt in the puddle on the road, looked at the place where the thunder was brightest, and shouted hoarsely.
"God, I know it's wrong, I know it's wrong, I, Chen Yao, really know it's wrong, please, please, give me more time, give me a way to live, okay?"
His tears fell in the rain.

The loud sound of thunder and rain made it difficult for Shen Qiu Yimo's mother and daughter to sleep.
"Mom, how do you say Dad is now?"
The daughter looked at Shen Qiu with her big black eyes wide open.
Shen Qiu patted his daughter Yimo's little belly lying in his arms and said softly.
"Don't worry, your dad is an adult, so he'll definitely take care of himself, well, he will. โ
Although Shen Qiu comforted her daughter Yimo like this, her own eyes were full of anxiety, and even some self-blame.
She looked at her right leg that was still in a plaster cast, and shook her lips, if it wasn't for her broken leg, her husband wouldn't have to work so hard, right?
At least I can go and send an umbrella to Chen Yao, right?
"Bang. โ
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
"Ah, it's raining heavily. โ
Chen Yao pushed open the door and walked in, the whole person was like a water dog all the time, embarrassed, but he still had a heavy smile on his face.
"Husband, why did you become like this?"
Shen Qiu looked at Chen Yao, who was soaking wet, and suddenly felt extremely sad, Yimo jumped off the ground, wanting to hug Chen Yao, but was gently pushed away by Chen Yao.
"It's raining today, so I leave work early, but my salary is still going on. โ
"Good daughter, don't come here, Daddy is dirty, you wait, Dad go take a bath. โ
Chen Yao smiled at his wife and daughter and walked into the small bathroom that was less than one square meter.
It's just that when he walked into the bathroom and closed the door, all the smiles that Chen Yao had piled up on his face disappeared, and the whole person leaned weakly against the wall of the bathroom, he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said.
"Chen Yao, don't fall, don't fall. โ
Chen Yao took off his muddy clothes, washed his body, washed and wrung out his clothes, hung his wet clothes in the corridor on the second floor in a pair of big pants, and then turned back to the rental house, closed the door, turned off the lights, and got into the quilt at once.
"Ah, it's so comfortable to rest early. โ
Chen Yao lay on the bed and stretched.
Suddenly, he heard his wife, Shen Qiu, sobbing quietly.
"Wife, why are you crying?"
Chen Yao saw his wife late autumn wiping tears at this time.
Late Autumn thumped his right leg in a plaster cast, and said sadly and angrily.
"Blame me, blame me, blame me for my uncompetitive legs, I made you so tired and so bitter. โ
Chen Yao hurriedly grabbed his wife's hands.
"Wife, don't mess around, your bones haven't been connected yet, and it's easy for you to stagger again. โ
Chen Yao hugged his wife Shen Qiu and daughter Yimo in his arms.
"Wife, don't worry, I'm not bitter, not bitter at all, I feel very satisfied, in the future, I will definitely let you and your daughter live a good life in the future." โ
Later?
Chen Yao knew that he had nothing to do, but he must give his wife and daughter a hope.
I'm a man, so if there's any suffering, let yourself bear it alone.
lost his money and lost his job, which made Chen Yao's mood extremely tired, and soon he fell asleep.
With the light of the lightning outside, Shen Qiu saw the tired face of her husband Chen Yao lying beside her, and kissed him gently.

"Husband, what's wrong with you?"
The next morning, his wife Shen Qiu's panicked cries woke Chen Yao from his sleep.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Yao opened his eyes, but he felt that his head hurt as if it was about to explode, and something in his brain seemed to be constantly jumping, and it was painful.
But he gritted his teeth and pretended to feel nothing, and sat up.
"Why did you shed so much blood?"
Shen Qiu covered her mouth and pointed to Chen Yao's pillow towels and bed sheets, she was very worried about Chen Yao.
Chen Yao looked down and found that his pillow had been dyed scarlet by himself, and the sheets were also stained, Chen Yao hurriedly jumped off the ground and rushed into the bathroom, through the bathroom mirror, he could see that his face was full of blood, and there was a steady stream of blood gushing out of his nostrils.
"Is it really the last moment?"
Chen Yao closed the bathroom door and sat on the ground a little weakly.
Blood began to flow all over the bathroom floor......
