Chapter 21: Past and Present Lives 3
These drunks, seeing He Yonghui gearing up and making a move, were extremely angry, because a thin homeless man dared to challenge his position as a street tyrant, which had never happened before, and it was the biggest insult to them.
I saw that the homeless man with a face full of meat jumped up at once, without saying a word, kicked He Zhu Yonghui's crotch, He Yonghui dodged slightly sideways, took the opportunity to grab the stinky foot he kicked with his backhand, pulled and pushed, and threw him into a dog to eat, and the other two saw this, and also pounced, all of which were resolved by He Yonghui one by one and knocked to the ground, and then He Yonghui took the opportunity to call his fist to them.
The three drunks were useless, and after a few punches, they cried and called their mothers, and the fat man with orchid fingers was even weaker, and it didn't take long for him to foam at the mouth and breathe rapidly, and then, he rolled his eyes and lay there straight and motionless.
A little bold in the crowd of onlookers walked over cautiously, probing his nose, and was shocked that this fat man was out of breath and dead.
The crowd "buzzed" and smashed the pot all of a sudden, everyone stayed away, for fear of getting into trouble, He Yonghui was also like being struck by lightning, stunned, his face "brushed" a lot paler all of a sudden, he obviously didn't work hard? Why did he fall down?
Although Xia Xue's face was also as earthy, she still quickly reflected, she pulled He Yonghui, and when the crowd was panicked, she staggered straight towards home.
Back home, Xia Xue packed up all her hearts as quickly as possible, loaded up the three guitars, glanced at the old casserole used to make soup, her eyes were moist, and she shook her head slightly, I was afraid that I couldn't take it away this time.
Husband and wife were originally birds of the same forest, and they flew separately when disaster came. When the time came to test He Yonghui and Xia Xue, obviously, Xia Xue did not disappoint, she was ready to flee with He Yonghui, no matter the outcome.
He Yonghui, who just reacted slowly, didn't want to implicate Xia Xue, he snatched the guitar in Xia Xue's hand, and slammed it to the ground, with a "bang", the crimson guitar that had been with him for many years was shattered, he wanted to smash the second guitar, but Xia Xue hugged him tightly, howling and crying, crying he was upset, and crying he was as tender as the sea.
In the end, he chose to run away with Xia Xue and disappeared into this free world.
After that, they hid like ants in dark corners. They slept in the open air, drank the cold spring under the majestic snow-capped mountains, and suffered the white eyes of the worldly villains in the busy city...
After hiding for a year, they were tired and didn't want to escape, so they decided to choose a place to live, and they knew that it was a blessing or a curse, and that they could not avoid it.
They went incognito, dressed up in disguise, and chose to spend their last days in the place where Xia Xue lived as a child.
During this period, they trembled, and lived a careful and happy life. A few times, He Yonghui also got angry with Xia Xue, telling her to get out of the way and let her live a free life, but Xia Xue looked at him stubbornly and was unmoved;
And the infatuated Xia Xue was afraid that the East Window Incident would make He Yonghui imprisoned and childless, so under her coercion and temptation, both soft and hard, the two had the crystallization of love in their escape careers.
During those days, it was miserable, He Yonghui was nothing, but he didn't want to involve Xia Xue and the fetus in her womb, but Xia Xue was also very stubborn, and she had to accompany He Yonghui to live or die.
Seeing Xia Xue's beautiful face losing weight day by day, but still having to comfort He Yonghui with a smile, He Yonghui was extremely heartbroken. At that time, he often read the relevant provisions of the criminal law with Xia Xue on his back, and every time he saw it, he felt more guilty about Xia Xue, and he tried his best to let Xia Xue leave, but it was not satisfactory.
He Yonghui sighed when he said this, and asked Li Shaohui: "Do you know the sentencing of the criminal law for the crime of harboring?"
Li Shaohui shook his head with a wry smile, and He Yonghui continued: "At that time, Article 310 of the Criminal Law stipulated: Whoever clearly knows that a person is a criminal and provides him with a hiding place or finances, helps him to escape, or makes false certificates to cover up, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, short-term detention or controlled release, and if the circumstances are serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years. Where the crime in the preceding paragraph is committed and there is prior conspiraction, it is to be punished as a joint crime. ”
I didn't expect that after many years, He Yonghui could still recite it word for word, which shows the trauma brought to him by that dark day when he didn't see the light of day, and also shows his gratitude and guilt for Xia Xue's hardships and hardships, and Xia Xue's bitter sea life of being in the same boat through thick and thin and never abandoning also interprets the true sense of Jianghu feelings and beautiful love.
Li Shaohui listened to the excitement one after another, and he couldn't calm down for a long time, he asked urgently and worriedly: "What about later?"
"Later!" He Yonghui smiled helplessly and said: "Life is impermanent, and many things are unpredictable. After Xue'er and I stayed there for more than a year, we didn't hear any movement, so we quietly checked on the Internet, but there was no news on the Internet. So we felt very strange, this is a matter of human life, how can there be no news at all? So we ventured to our friends to inquire about it, and guess what? The fat man that day did not die at all, he was only in shock for a short time, and after lying on the ground for a while, he stood up with a chirp. ”
"What?, how could there be such a funny thing in the world?" Li Shaohui was taken aback, and at the same time, he was relieved of why Yonghui Xia Xue.
He Yonghui smiled bitterly: "At the beginning, I was also very aggrieved, and Xue'er was scared for so many years, but it turned out to be nothing. But then I also figured it out, this is a test of God for me and Xue'er, if there is no such test, this test in the fire, how can I understand that Xue'er is such a good girl, and how can I prove the greatness of love?"
Li Shaohui thought so deeply that he couldn't stop nodding his head, but what happened between them later that destroyed their love of life and death? With such a question, Li Shaohui asked bitterly: "Since you have shared weal and woe and experienced strong winds and waves, why have you become like this?"
"Well, that's a long story. He Yonghui let out a long sigh, his face was extremely lonely.
He Yonghui's father was a smart and capable man, at the time of reform and opening up, he quit his iron job, relied on the first pot of gold earned from selling vegetables in the market, entered the violent industry of real estate, and became one of the few local multimillionaires in just a few years.
However, the good times did not last long, and in the financial turmoil that swept through Asia in 1998, He Yonghui's father was not spared, and several projects he invested in were affected and collapsed in shopping malls.
That is, in that short period of one year, this multimillionaire became a multimillionaire, and getting rich overnight requires great mental endurance, but having nothing overnight requires greater mental endurance. Because his father couldn't stand this huge gap in his heart, and the threat of debt collection, he was desperate, regardless of his two young sons and lonely wife, he chose to die and ended his young life by jumping off the building.
Before He Yonghui's father jumped off the building, he had been wandering on the balcony upstairs, he looked at the burning Caixia in the sky, and sighed: "It's so beautiful, it's so beautiful, since the day I was sensible, I have never appreciated such a beautiful Caixia." ”
After wandering for a long time, He Yonghui's father still jumped off the building, at the moment of jumping, he looked back at the young He Yonghui, at that time He Yonghui didn't know what his father was going to do, he opened those clean eyes, looked at his father flying in the air, and felt that Wei'an's father showed him another superhuman skill, so he grinned: "Fly, fly, dad can fly!"
Since then, He Yonghui's mother has taken He Yonghui's brothers to live a life under the fence in their parents' home, and a few years later, He Yonghui's mother began to return to Shanghai with great fanfare because of the sponsorship of He Yonghui's father's old friends.
It is said that women are born political and business talents, and they can get better development in the political and business circles, but behind this success, they often have to pay a kind of grief and humiliation that cannot be seen.
Witnessing his father's suicide and being blinded by the world, these bumpy childhood experiences made He Yonghui a sentimental, introverted and reticent person, and the rumors about his mother made him feel like a fish in his throat and painful.
When I was a child, I couldn't do anything but accept the arrangement of fate and endure the torture of God. When I grow up and have the ability, I naturally want to choose a happy path, become an ordinary teacher, and live a stable and ordinary life, without great joy and no great sorrow.
However, in the second year of He Yonghui's coaching, his mother forced him to return to his side by suicide and let him take care of business matters, but this kind of life was not what He Yonghui wanted, and only made him fall into endless grief in the past.
About a year later, He Yonghui, the sweet potato on the fire rack, was finally roasted and out of breath, so he decided to leave in a big quarrel with his mother and lived a life of wandering and letting himself go.
Moreover, in the second year of wandering, he met a confidante ---- Xia Xue who was sympathetic to the same illness during his journey, and they had similar misfortune and common happiness.
Before they met each other, their lives were dark and there was no light, but when they met, they became each other's light, illuminating the way forward. Their experience is like a novel, after going through hardships and dangers, they finally get together and live a happy life.
He Yonghui and Xia Xue are both fallen people at the end of the world, and they will always be with each other when they meet.
But when the moon is full, it is lost, and when the water is full, it overflows, and there will never be anything perfect in this world, nor should there be.
