003 Prosperity is over
When I heard this, my heart beat faster. Then he hurriedly turned his head, not daring to look at the moving scene.
"Little brother, can you help...... You see that her legs can't move......" Just as I was thinking about my thoughts, Sister Peiwen's anxious voice came, and from her tone, I could hear that she had an unusual relationship with this begonia......
"This ...... It's inconvenient......" I said with a red face and a trembling face.
After all, it's too embarrassing for me to stare at a girl's leg all the time.
Sister Peiwen was slightly stunned and looked down at the begonia lying on the ground, and then her face turned red, as if she realized something: "Then what should I do...... If she doesn't return blood, her leg will be ruined, and if her aunt knows about it, it will be ......."
Her voice was almost shaky, and her tone had become choked, and it was obvious that she was crying rapidly.
"You...... Don't cry yet...... Why don't you go to my room, it's warmer there......" Seeing her like this. I hurriedly turned around and comforted her.
Peiwen looked at me, then at Begonia, the tears in her eyes instantly froze, and after hesitating for a moment, she nodded uneasily.
Seeing her nodding, I moved to Begonia's side and said cautiously, "I'll carry her, where I live is next door......"
After saying that, I squatted down, and Sister Peiwen attached the begonia to me.
Begonia's whole body was pressed against my back in an instant, and I could even clearly feel the soft fluctuations. The new touch instantly gave me a strange feeling......
"Let's go......"
Seeing that I was stunned in place, Sister Peiwen reminded me in a whisper on the side.
I quickly collected my thoughts, and then walked to the room where I lived with the begonia on my back.
At that moment, my heart was pounding, after all, it was indeed the first time in my life to contact a girl like this......
However, although my heart fluctuated a lot at the time, I finally adjusted my mindset when I thought about the importance of saving people......
The room was very simple, only a bed made of wooden planks, and the bed was surrounded by some dirty overalls, but fortunately there was an electric stove, which was left by the foreman before he left, and I really don't know how I would have survived the winter without it.
I gently placed the begonia on my messy bed, and then briefly tidied up the clutter around me.
"It's a bit of a mess...... Don't you mind ......."
After doing all this, I said to Sister Peiwen embarrassedly.
But she didn't seem to listen to what I was saying, her eyes just scanned the room.
"Do you usually live here, can you live in this cold place?" she asked, looking at me in surprise.
Of course, I understand what she means, after all, how can a woman like her, who has lived in a greenhouse since childhood, imagine the hard work of us migrant workers?
"It's good here, the wind doesn't blow and the rain doesn't get wet...... By the way, let's take a look at your friend......"
Hearing me say this, she was stunned for a moment, and then walked quickly to Begonia.
"Her legs seem to be a little warm...... she said delightfully as she approached.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but look back, and at this time, I happened to see Sister Pei Wen massaging one of her hands on Begonia's leg......
Seeing this scene, I quickly turned around, and at the same time, my heart began to pound again, and my face became hot in an instant......
"You put ...... She put it by the fire...... Roast for a while, and it should be fine......" I didn't dare to look back, and said in a trembling tone.
"That's right, why am I so stupid......" Sister Pei Wen's voice suddenly realized behind her. Then I heard another sound of the soo, and it was clear that she had done as I was told.
"Miss...... You and your friends are here first, and I'll just go out and wait......"
I said a word softly and left, Sister Peiwen seemed to have something to say, but in the end she didn't say it.
I walked alone to the window of another empty room and let the cold wind blow across my face. The scenery of Cloud City in the distance comes into view, this historic ancient city is covered in heavy snow, and there is a hint of mysterious and ancient atmosphere from a distance.
I looked into the distance and sighed deeply, and at the same time remembered my visit to Cloud City......
My hometown is located in a poor mountain village in the northwestern Sichuan Plateau. My parents made a living from farming, and they didn't have much money a year.
In September 2016, I received an admission letter from a university of finance and economics in Northwest China.
It has always been my dream to go to college, so I happily handed the notice to my parents, but my parents looked very unhappy when they saw this notice, and their faces were gloomy. Later, my parents finally said that the family had no money and asked me to give up my studies.
I cried alone for a long time that day, and I even felt like my parents didn't love me anymore.
Later, my father was sad when he saw me, and finally agreed to lend me money to let me study.
My parents traveled all over the village, borrowing almost door to door, and finally raised 10,000 yuan for me.
When my father took the 10,000 yuan in my hand, I couldn't help but shed tears, my heart was as uncomfortable as a pinprick in my heart, and I always felt sorry for them......
Maybe 10,000 yuan is nothing for people in the city, but where we are, but a few years of savings, although I didn't see the scene of my parents borrowing money, but from the expressions on their faces, I can see how difficult it is to come by this 10,000 yuan......
In mid-September of the 16th year, I came to this ancient city with this 10,000 yuan - Cloud City. originally planned to go to school after paying the tuition, but who would have thought that as soon as he walked to the school gate, he suddenly found that the 10,000 yuan was missing.
I searched all my pockets and bags, but I couldn't find any. That is, the money was stolen......
At that moment, I felt that the whole sky was gray, and that deep despair almost made me lose the courage to live.
I looked at the university of my dreams and shed tears humbly, the damn thieves didn't know that the ten thousand dollars they had stolen not only my hopes but also my dreams......
I remember that day, I wandered under the overpass for a long time, and I wanted to give up my life several times, but when I thought of my parents who were far away from home, I finally convinced myself......
That.
I made the first wish in my life to the Yellow River: that is, I must get ahead in this life......
Although this is just an ordinary sentence, in my heart, it has a thousand weights.
It was from that day that I had a goal, a responsibility, and a responsibility in my heart......
Later, I came to the labor market in Cloud City and found a job on a construction site. The salary is also very impressive, more than 4,000 yuan a month. So I happily signed the contract.
But who knew that near the end of the year, the black-hearted contractor actually ran away with the payment, and my co-workers and I searched all the streets and alleys of Yuncheng, but never found any trace of this contractor, and it is precisely because of this that I have fallen to this step......
I sighed deeply and looked out the window at the snow again, my eyes moistening involuntarily.
The two hundred yuan in my pocket is estimated to only last me for half a month's living expenses, which means that I may not wait until the end of the year, and I will already starve to death on the streets of Cloud City......
Thinking of this, I smiled slightly bitterly, and couldn't help but sigh that the world was hot and cold......
"Little brother...... Why are you here, I've been looking for you for a long time. ”
Just as I was thinking about my thoughts, Sister Peiwen's voice sounded behind me.
I reached out and wiped my eyes, swallowing back the tears that were about to fall.
"What's wrong? Is your friend okay?"
I turned my head and tried to squeeze a smile out of my face. Because I don't want outsiders to see my fragile appearance.
"O'...... She's much better, I'm here to tell you, we're leaving, and your pants, we just have to borrow them, and wait for tomorrow...... I'll take it back and give it back to you......" she said to me softly.
"It's okay, it's just a pair of torn pants, don't ...... Give it back,......" I said through gritted teeth.
I said this in my mouth, but I didn't think so in my heart, because my mother bought them for me in town before I came to Cloud City. It's not expensive, but it's the only decent piece of clothing I've ever had......
