Volume 1: A Hundred Years of Love Chapter 69: Orphans
If he can be reborn, He Dayong will definitely not complain about his wife.
On the day of the blind date, her beauty was like a dangerous bullet, "bang" shot his soul, he was willing to be a loyal security guard for her, willing to be a cow and a horse for her, willing to die for her!
However, each of the peaks of Chung Mountain points to the sky, it is a male land, and that mountain cannot contain her who can only give birth to daughters!
If he can be reborn, he won't care whether he is dead or not, it's actually just a false definition, and the real meaning is the person in front of you, the person who has held hands with you for a lifetime.
This scumbag-like man who mentally defeated his wife and indirectly forced his wife to death completely changed back to his former self in that late autumn!
On the construction site of hydropower construction, he always appeared in the most dangerous places, and he always appeared in the most difficult places, and naturally, every month, he also got the most money.
In the eyes of his colleagues, he is the "prince of the sky", and in the eyes of the contractor boss, he is a "Spider-Man", he is agile, alone in the concrete silo in those steel forests, flying on the cement poured cliffs.
At that time, he was about forty years old, and the most brilliant sun of his life shone on him, and he had endless energy.
After work, he would often go to the bark-made taverns on the construction site, ask the shopkeeper for two glasses of sorghum loose wine, and drink alone.
At this time, he would respectfully place one of the cups opposite his seat, which was for his wife Xiaoyu, and he grabbed one cup with his hands and poured it down his throat to drink.
Xiaoyu, you still have to go, in my He Dayong's heart, you will live forever!
Whenever he drank the wine in his cup, he would recite words in his mouth, and spill the glass of wine that was respectful to Xiaoyu on the ground reverently, as if his wife was beside him.
Life on the construction site, hidden in the unhurried yellow dust and smoke, lasted for three years, and in August 1999, he unexpectedly fell off the dam and quietly fell into the rapids.
It was a fatal point in time, in those days, He Xueyi had just found out her college entrance examination results, which were far higher than the admission score line of key undergraduates, she was waiting for the university admission notice, and after hearing the news of her father's death, the whole person fainted.
She took the train and the bus several times before arriving at the construction site where her father worked.
It was a remote place, with two mountains and rivers and camps.
Before she arrived, the foreman had already run away!
The river was flowing rapidly in summer, and He Dayong's body had already drifted away with the turbid flowing water!
She ran to the river and saw nothing!
She shouted her father's name, and there was no response from the river.
She sat alone on the rocks by the river and cried, and the August sun danced on her shoulders!
That day, she finally understood that she had become an orphan!
She originally hated her father, and since her mother died, she hadn't called him Dad!
That day, she wanted to call her father, but no one answered him anymore!
Father, my daughter forgives you at this moment!
Father, you have had a hard time in this life!
When she dragged her tired body back to her hometown, the university acceptance letter came!
On that day, the fiery sun rose in the sky of Laozhang Village in Chungcheng as usual, and the postman uncle, who was soaked with sweat, handed over a "university admission letter" to the village chief Wang Dashan, who was in his fifties after receiving the letter, and immediately rode his old bicycle to He Xueyi's house.
When he was about to arrive at He Xueyi's door, he stopped his bicycle, carefully found an open space, and lit a festive firecracker.
In the sound of firecrackers, a bunch of people immediately came out to watch the excitement, "He Xueyi, congratulations, you have been admitted to university!" Wang Dashan saw her at the door of He Xueyi's house, and after he finished speaking, he handed the letter in his hand to He Xueyi.
"Thank you, village chief!" He Xueyi took the letter, tears flowed out, this is the result of his years of hard work, his efforts have not been wasted, but this school starts in September, where does the money come from? The accidental death of his father, the contractor has already run away, there is not a penny of compensation, and his father's body has not been found, so not even a burial ceremony has been held. When she thought of this, tears fell like rain.
At this time, a sharp voice suddenly sounded in the crowd.
"Isn't it just that I've been admitted to a university, what's the big deal?" was the voice of next-door neighbor He Manyu, whose son also took the college entrance examination this year, but unsurprisingly failed the list.
"I'm amazing, what about you?" He Xueyi couldn't stand that breath and said loudly.
"Hehe, do you think you are a talent? No one in the village knows how your father and mother died, isn't it just that you fox spirit killed you. He Manyu shouted.
"Yes, the one who specializes in parents!" echoed several old women in the crowd.
"Don't talk nonsense, what era is it now, and you still believe in superstition?" shouted Wang Dashan, the village head.
At this time, the crowd began to talk again.
"This Wang Dashan doesn't even believe in the set left by his ancestors, why do we still believe him? The next time the village elections are held, I will be the first not to elect him. An old woman's voice.
"Saying that the things of the ancestors are superstitions, how can you Wang Dashan raise your head in the village in the future. The other old man said, shaking his head.
"There have been people in our village who have been admitted to universities before, but no one has ever been admitted to the universities in Yancheng, and He Xueyi is the pride of our whole village! Wang Dashan, the village head, shouted loudly.
As soon as they heard that they were going to pay for it, the crowd of onlookers dispersed one after another.
"Child, don't worry about money, the village will find a way for you. When Wang Dashan left, he comforted He Xue and recalled.
"Thank you, village chief!" He Xueyi said gratefully.
In those days, the news of He Dayong's death quickly spread to the village, and the old people in the village were idle, and chatting and gossiping was the best way for them to pass the few days left in their lives.
"Da Yong is only in his early forties, he has not been a sixty-year-old man, his wife is a short-lived ghost, and he is also a short-lived ghost!" said an old man holding a cigarette stick at the market in Chungcheng.
"His daughter's life is hard, and he has beaten his mother and father. An old woman who came down from the Chung Shan temple said that his death must have been predestined.
"You are old, don't talk nonsense, his daughter is a peugeot and can read, how can she be his own parents?" said the old man with a cigarette stick taking a puff of dry tobacco.
"I'm an old man, I've seen a lot of things in the world, how can I talk about it? Look at He Dayong, that's a man who can be regarded as the number one in a radius of ten miles and eight miles, but since the birth of his daughter, the whole person has wilted, and then his wife also died, and his own life was lost, and now he can't find a single bone, miserable!" The old woman was originally superstitious, so she dared to assert that this must be the karma of the previous life.
"Don't talk nonsense, his daughter is also miserable, and now she has become an orphan, but she has also grown up, and if she is only a few years old, it will be even more bitter. The old man with a cigarette stick said.
The summer of that year can be said to be He Xueyi's most desperate summer.
He Xueyi did not wait for the village chief's fundraising, her ears were full of rumors and rumors from that ancient mountain village, those words, they were almost going to kill her, the night she received the "university admission letter", she thought about it all night, and shed tears all night.
How did I become a killer? How did I kill my parents?
In the dark, she kept asking herself!
Why can't I be the pride of the people in the village after I got such a high score?
Why don't you let yourself go?
It was a long dark night!
That night, she decided she wanted to leave this savage mountain village!
That night, she decided to give up her plan to go to university and create a world of her own in Shenzhen!
It's a terrible absolute!
Early the next morning, she gritted her teeth, took the college admission letter, and stepped on the southbound train.
It was from that day that she began her life full of unknowns and began to struggle to survive, and before that, she struggled to be admitted to a good university.
In just one summer, his powerful father was gone, and everything changed.
Even her ideals have changed.
