Chapter 337: Great Change
Chapter 337: Great Change
When she arrived at the head of the village, she would walk very slowly with her bag on her back, carefully admiring the scenery inside the village.
"Xiaocao, why did you come back at this time?" Aunt Wang at the window was cleaning up the weeds in the cornfield, and when she looked up, she saw a girl's figure, and when she got closer, she realized that it was Xiaocao, and asked suspiciously.
"I came back to see my parents, my mother, and my brother, Aunt Wang, you are pulling weeds! I haven't been back for more than a year, and I didn't expect the scenery in the village to be so good. Xiaocao said to Aunt Wang with a smile on her face, but Aunt Wang's eyes were full of weirdness when she looked at Xiaocao.
"What's the matter?Aunt Wang, why are you looking at me like this?What's going on?" Xiaocao couldn't help but touch his face with his hand, and looked up and down at his dress.
Although the clothes he wore were not very new, there was nothing wrong with them, right?
"Xiaocao, where have you been this year?Don't you know what happened to your family?" Aunt Wang realized that Xiaocao might not know about the changes in her family, so she hurriedly said it.
"I know, it's nothing! Isn't it just that I built a small villa, and my brother was admitted to college? I've heard it all, Aunt Wang, is the little villa I built beautiful anymore?"
Xiaocao thought that Aunt Wang was surprised by the great changes in her family, so she smiled and said triumphantly.
But as soon as these words landed, Aunt Wang's hand reached out to Xiaocao's head, and Xiaocao took Aunt Wang's hand down with her hand suspiciously: "Aunt Wang, what are you doing here?"
"Xiaocao, I think you're sick, right? When did your family build a villa? When did your brother get admitted to college? In the year you didn't come back, something happened to your family, your father had a stroke, and now he is no longer alive, your mother heard that he has also been sick recently, and your brother has dropped out of school a long time ago in order to earn money to save your father and mother, what kind of nonsense are you talking about?"
Aunt Wang patted her thigh and looked at Xiaocao in shock, this girl is probably crazy.
"Aunt Wang, what are you talking about? How is it possible? You can't lie to me, right?" Xiaocao muttered in her mouth, but in her heart she already believed what Aunt Wang said. Saying this is just consoling myself.
"You girl, how could I lie to you about such a thing, you should go home and take a look! Your brother is estimated to have gone to work in the coal mine again today, this child, your mother persuaded him to go to college, why didn't she go, saying that she wanted to earn money for treatment, so can she go to the coal mine? He is still so young......
Aunt Wang was still talking, but Xiaocao couldn't listen anymore, she turned around and immediately ran to her house. Because the speed was too fast, I almost fell.
When she finally got home and looked at the dilapidated scene in front of her, she was so surprised that she almost couldn't close her mouth.
"How could it be? How could it be such a big villa? What about my parents enjoying their old age? How about my younger brother who was admitted to college? How could it be like this. As if she had been stupid, she knelt at the door of her house and burst into tears.
After finally reacting, she slowly wiped away her tears and walked into the room step by step, she didn't dare to imagine what kind of scene she would see for a while.
I knew that she shouldn't have done this, and after a year in prison, there was such a big change in the family, and she didn't even see the last face of her father.
Xiaocao, who had plucked up enough courage, tried to go into the room, but never heard any movement in the room, and when she walked in slowly, she opened the curtain to find her mother lying on the bed, covered with a thick quilt.
If it weren't for the occasional ups and downs of the quilt, it would make people feel that the person lying on the bed was not a living person.
"Mom.................. Mom .................." Xiaocao called softly several times, but no one responded to him, she slowly approached the bed, put her hand under her mother's nose, and then breathed a sigh of relief, at least for now.
Xiaocao then began to look at her mother's room, except for this bed, all the furniture she had bought in the house in those years was gone.
Next to the mother's bed is a table, the bottles and cans on the table are full of medicines, go to the living room, in the middle is a photo, it is a black and white photo of the father, looking at that photo, Xiaocao can't help but shed tears again.
"Dad, I'm sorry for you, I didn't even see you for the last time, Dad, how can I be so confused, how do I think he can take care of you, what should I do now!" she suddenly knelt in front of the photo, tears streaming down her face.
After crying for a long time, Xiaocao began to get busy, cleaned the house thoroughly, and went back to see her mother, but her mother still didn't wake up, which made Xiaocao a little worried, she first got married, and she didn't know what illness her mother had.
She didn't know how to feed her mother medicine now, whether she could touch her mother's body, she didn't know a series of questions, so she didn't dare to act rashly, so she could only wait for her brother to come back.
Listening to Aunt Wang, my brother went to work in the coal mine, and now it is almost dark, presumably he will be back soon, Xiaocao walked into the kitchen and looked at the things in the kitchen, thinking that he could make some food to fill up, and wait for his brother to come back and eat quickly.
But there was nothing else in the room except rice.
I went to the garden in the backyard to look for it, and all the greens were covered with weeds, and she worked hard to remove the weeds, and finally found a few greens that could still be used to make a green vegetable stew.
But left and right, Xiaocao didn't wait for his younger brother's figure, he couldn't help but be a little anxious, and went to the village with a flashlight alone, and just arrived at the village when he heard someone say that there was an accident.
"There was an accident in the coal mine, many people were buried underneath, this is a small stone at the head of the village, there is no one at home for the small stone, what do you do here?" the people in the village gathered around and shouted loudly.
"Who said that there is no one in Xiaoshi's family, today his sister Xiaocao is back, and now I will go to find her. It was Aunt Wang who spoke, she ran forward desperately, trying to find Xiaocao's figure, but she didn't expect to see Xiaocao just as she was about to start walking.
"Grass, your brother......"
"Needless to say, Aunt Wang, I have heard it, how is my brother and him?" Xiaocao is unusually calm now, calm and frightening, she did not cry hoarsely, but asked these words flatly.
